Chapter 31
- What? Why didn't you call me and tell me about this sooner? Where is my hand phone? I need to call him.
- Jini. There is no use in calling him. I already did that. His phone is off. The reason I came to France is because I thought he would come to see you. I should have called you. I'm sorry. What should I do? I search the entire city for Mark and I couldn't find him.
Seeing the concerned look in her brother eyes, Jini came to a conclusion:
- You're in love with Mark. Isn't that so, brother?
- Yes, I am.
Jini looked at her brother with affection and asked him:
- Bryan did you realized what you just said?
- What? I just said that... Oh, no... Jini, if that's true, and I've fallen in love with him, what should I do then? You know that I'm engaged with Helen. And the fact that Mark is a guy... Our family won't accept him.
- Would it be easier for you if Mark was a woman?
- Maybe. I don't know the answer to that yet... I just don't know what to do about Helen. The only thing I know that it really hurts that I can't find Mark. My soul is empty.
- Bryan. Don't worry about your engagement with Helen. You don't have to marry her.
- Are you sure that I don't have to marry her?
- Yes. Helen has a boyfriend and she's expecting a child from him.
- What? How did this happened? Where is her boyfriend now?
- We don't know yet. Mike asked one of his detective friends to look for him. We only know that someone saw him in France before we came here. But so far we haven't found him.
- Do you know who Helen's boyfriend is?
Before Jini could answer a knock was heard on the door:
- Jini, Bryan, the food is ready. Both of you come eat. Said Mike.
- Okay. We'll be there in a few moments. Don't worry Bryan. I'll talk with Mike after we eat and see if his detective friend can also look for Mark. Let's join the others for now.
- Thank you Jini. Sometimes I feel that you should have been the big sister and I the little brother. Said Bryan with a small smile on his face as they left the study room and went to join the others for dinner.
