Chapter 37

General POV

2 weeks later.

With Oona constantly supporting Nonny by just staying with him, Nonny finally got cured. Nonny's parents were happy to see their old son back. They couldn't thank Oona enough, but for Oona, it was just a pleasure. Sadly, she had to go back home, but Oona was always welcome in Nonny's family. This part of the story has officially come to an end.

It was midnight. No sounds outside, everyone was sleeping. Except, Goby. He wasn't sleeping. He was thinking, thinking about... the future. How could he possibly live with Deema later, with her father... "I can't wait any longer, I will talk about it with Deema tomorrow." He said to himself.

"Hi Deema, you wanna hang out today x?" Goby texted. Soon he got a response. "Heyy sweetheart, sure. See you at your housedoor xxx." Time to wait.

At Deemas house

"Where are you going?" Deemas father asked. "Hang out with friends, bye." Deema answered. "Who specifically?" "Euh... Just my friends hehe." Deema said nervously. "Yeah yeah your friends, which one of them?" "Why do you ask that? Does it matter with who I hang out? They are my friends. You've seen them a thousand times." Deemas father released a little growl and went back to reading his newspaper. "Oh..." Deema realized. She looked over her shoulder and gave her father a strict look.

The couple met. Goby had a specific reason to hang out, Deema didn't. They greeted with a little kiss and started walking down the streets. They first were talking about how the day went so far. Then a moment of silence came, Goby opted for a balanced approach. "How would you see, us 2, in, 5,10 or even 20 years?" Goby asked. "Wow... To be honest I wasn't prepared for that. Well... I sincerely hope we'll still be together. This is sincere." Goby smiled and played a bit with Deemas hear. But then it came. "Y... yeah. I hope too but..." "Y... you met someone else?" Deema asked worriedly. "No, it's much worse! It's your dad!" "My dad?" "Yes." "Why my d... Ah, yeah... I get it. I'm sorry Goby." "I want to prove to him that I'm worthy. A good person." "Goby, I really don't like to talk about this. I love my dad and I don't like to talk about his bad side." "Deema! If you want to live a happy life with me in the future, then get out of that comfort zone. We must do something, change his mind!"

"Sigh, you're right. Better early than late." "Thanks, honey, I know it's hard for you, but it will get even harder in the future if we do nothing." "Now, let's make it quick." The 2 sat on a bench in the park to discuss. "Okay, do you know why he's like that?" Goby asked. "I never asked him, he would probably be offended because he thinks that he's right." "Extreme right yeah. Sorry." "Tshh." "We need to know if he has a valid reason, maybe a bad experience in the past." "Mmhm true, I will ask my mom. Maybe she knows more." "Good idea."

"Another thing, how could I sympathize with him? I will have to do it, he'll certainly not leave his comfort zone." Deema nodded. "I'd say you 'invite' me to eat. That day I'll do my best to give a good impression, and after that, I'll start a serious talk with him." Goby said ambitiously. "I hope it will work... I know my father very well." "Only idiots don't change their opinions." "Yeah true, but he's an idiot sometimes." "One last thing, maybe you should talk about it first. and don't forget to ask your mother." Deema nodded. "I hope this will work. I don't want to lose you, I want to live my whole life with you." Goby said emotionally. "Aww Goby. You're so perfect." The 2 had a little private moment.

the 2 went back home. Deema arrived at her house. "Time to ask mom." She said. She then entered her house and went straight to her mother. "Mom? We need to talk, about you know." Deemas mom directly understood it. Deema began. "H... How did dad, became like that?" "Well, a long time ago he got bullied by people with... another ethnicity. It happened many years ago, but he didn't change. Sadly." "Goby and I want to change his mind." Deema said. "Talk with him is the best solution." "I'd say we invite Goby to eat, tomorrow." Deemas mother nodded. "Great idea. He is welcome." "Thanks, mom."

"Dad, we need to talk." Deema said. "About what?" "Why do you dislike Goby?" Deema said straight to the point. Deemas father remained silent. "No valid reason? You have no reason to hate him." "Deema!" He shouted. "I know what happened to you, but that happened years ago, the vast majority of those people are normal and not bad intentioned. Goby will come tomorrow, I hope you'll give him one chance."
