CHAPTER 29: AN UNCOMFORTABLE MEETING
Sebastian and Blaine went to a restaurant with the kids. It was an expensive place, but it had a home environment and had a place where the children can play while his parents have lunch. Parents could enjoy lunch before going out with their children without calling a nanny. It was a successful restaurant and they were there for the first time.
Ian was excited and went to play there with an employee who took care of the children. A woman dressed like a doll with fake freckles in her cheeks took Emily to the baby room. After that, they waited for someone to tell them what was their table. Sebastian was looking the door, but he realized his boyfriend hold his hand and squeezed it. He turned and saw Blaine was scared. He looked where he was looking and recognized who had scared him.
"Good afternoon. Do you have reservation?" James Anderson tried to be professional but he was angry. He realized his son was happy and have a good life. He wore expensive clothes and he was with a rich man who gave him everything he wished while they had to work hard to have enough for them. They had lost their home and needed to sell the family jewelry.
"Yes, we do. Mr. Smythe." Sebastian smiled.
"Please, come with me."
The table was ready for the four of them. "There are two menus, the black one is for adults and the colored is for children. We serve the children food first and, when they finished and go to play, their parents can have lunch. I'll give you a few minutes."
"Thank you."
"I don't know If I can do it." Blaine whispered while he looked around, looking for his father.
"You can do it. Honey, listen to me. They are having a bad time right now and you are better than ever. You have a loving family, a boyfriend who adored you since five years ago, a big brother who take care of you and two kids that can't live without you. They are alone and ruined. You have nothing to be ashamed for, they are who did something wrong."
"You are right."
Sebastian kissed his boyfriend before reading the menus. If they chose the most expensive dishes and the best wine, it wasn't for showing his money to Blaine's father.
James had to take the kids to the table. However, he didn't say anything when Blaine and Sebastian showed their love. The family enjoyed themselves without thinking about him.
Sebastian was calling to a transport enterprise because they had broken a box and he thought it was their fault. He wanted to talk with the boss, but his secretary.
"Good morning, Mr. Perez's office, Pamela Anderson speaking. Can I help you?"
"Good morning. I'm Sebastian Smythe, Walgar director. I want to talk with Mr. Perez about a broken box."
"I'm sorry, but Mr. Perez doesn't deal with that problems. You should talk with sales department." She answered.
"You are going to let me speak with Mr. Perez, aren't you?"
"I'm not."
"I guess James talk with you about our meeting this Saturday."
"Of course he told me. Is that how you thank us?" Pam was angry.
"We have nothing to thank you about. You made Blaine's life a living hell and you threw him out your home. You don't know how much you hurt him." Sebastian couldn't believe her.
"James told me you have two kids and you are happy. He told me he had never seen Blaine so happy. Why don't you have to thank us for that? Actually, it would be a goodwill gesture to hire us again. Family must be united.
"Can I speak with Mr. Perez, please?" Sebastian wanted revenge and he knew how to have it. Maybe he couldn't report them, but he could revenge what Cooper and Blaine had suffered because of them.
He couldn't talk with Mr. Perez, but he could talk with someone close to him. He explained what had happened and they found a solution. When he finished talked about it, he talked about Pamela. "I just want you to know that you can't trust her. I fired her and her husband because they were doing dirty tricks to not be fired." He knew with that she would be fired again and her life would be more difficult, even if he didn't understand why they complain so much if there were people who is happy with less than them.
When he came back home, Ian and Blaine were painting and he sat with them. They were like that in silence for a while before Sebastian said something. "I talked with you mother. She works in a transport company and I had a problem with them."
"I hope she behaved." He stopped painting and looked at his boyfriend.
"Not really, but I talked with someone and told him they can't trust her. I guess she will be fired." Sebastian didn't want to lie, their relationship and their kids were more important for him that anything.
"You shouldn't have done that; I don't care about them anymore."
"They hurt you. I don't care what happen with them, I care about what they did to you."
"I love you."
"I love you too."
They kissed before going back to paint with their son. Sebastian understood that nobody could take away his happiness.
