I Became The Protagonist’s Child chapter 60

The car ride back home was awkward, there wasn’t much conversation as Noah slowly watched the scum and his mother.

‘When did this happen?! Why did this happen?! Mom, don’t fall for this trap.”

Sihan could feel Noah’s trembling body, “um Nathaniel, could stop for a while. Noah needs some fresh air.”

Nathaniel looks through the rear view mirror, “can’t right now where in main traffic it’s gonna take a while, can you guys hold out until then?”

Noah doesn’t feel well, his stomach feels unwell. “Mom,”

Sihan is worried his baby’s face is too pale, he is getting sickly?

“Nat,”

Nathaniel doesn’t know what to do, the traffic seems to have a Jam, he opens the window to let some air in.

Noah doesn’t want it, if the scum and his mother end up together then his mother will suffer many types of mistreatment and him for being the bastard child of Nathaniel.

His head hurts, soon his nose begins to bleed, then Sihan gets it. “Noah, are you worried again?” Sihan asks, while taking out some wipes from his bag.

Noah nods, Sihan smiles softly. “Noah, you worry your little head too much, you get bad headaches when you do.”

“But mom, I–”

“Noah, whatever happens mama promises it’s gonna be okay. Don’t fret your little head, cause if you do I’ll have no choice but to fret about you then we will fret about each other.”  Sihan said. “Noah, I love you.”

Noah looks at his mother holding his hand, “ I love you too.”

Sihan smiles, wiping the blood from his nose. After taking the long drive out of the traffic Nathaniel stops them by the hospital where Amani works. They needed to check up on him. Just as Nathaniel was prepared to join them Sihan stops him.

“Huh?”

“Remember, we can’t risk being around each other in public. You’re Nathaniel Laurier the heir to a tycoon, I am Sihan Evans a simple bakery owner. We are in two different worlds. It’ll be suspicious to be seen in public with you.” Sihan said coldly.

Nathaniel was speechless, “what?”

“You understand right? After it’s just before. I won’t say anything to the public, let’s keep this relationship confidential, for the sake of both of us.”

Sihan walks away leaving Nathaniel standing by the car confused, “w-what?”

He wasn’t like that!! He combs his hand through his hair. He only said those things because his parents, ah his parents.

Looking at Sihan’s disappearing figure something deep from the back of his mind emerges. “Mommy, you’ll come back right?”

“Sorry young master, but I’m afraid I can’t.”

He feels a sense of uneasiness in his chest, he doesn’t like it trying to get away from such feelings he kicks the car causing the serene to go off.

“Forget it!”

He can’t let them take his family, no one will take his son away from him. No, he was only protecting them.

Noah is proud, his mother actually gave his father the cold shoulder. Something that never happened in the novel, but how long would it last?

They are waiting in a room for Amani, he was busy with another patient so he couldn’t come to them immediately. Noah is feeling better being away from the scum gong, his nose stops running and his rampaging thoughts settle.

“Mom, that Mr. Is Noel and Alexis’ father… Why did he pick us up?”

“Well, he will pick you up from school sometimes if mom can’t, after all he I’d Uncle Alex’s husband.” Sihan smiles.

‘You didn’t answer the question, it seems I’m gonna see him more often, what do I do?’

“Noah, for now I’ll try stalling but I know it can’t work forever because in the end when anger hits a lot of rationality will be gone through the window.” He smiles.

Noah understands, he can try keeping us apart but Nathaniel is a person who throws everything away upon losing his rationality.his emotions aren’t controlled, he is a person who’s patience should not to be tested.

Amani walks to the door knocking at the side, Noah looks up. “Dad,”

Noah didn’t move as Amani walks up to him smiling then checks his face, Sihan looks away awkwardly, the past few days with Amani has been nothing but awkward since that night, he remembers everything but he still hasn’t formed the courage to say anything about it and when Amani does he cut and avoids it.

Amani right now is focusing on checking Noah’s health.

“Dizziness?”

“Not much,”

“Does your head still hurt?”

“There is still a little pumping but serious.”

“Noah, I know you’re a heavy thinker and you can’t help, heck even more you’re a child but I really need to take it easy. Your body can’t keep up with your brain’s capacity, if there is anything troubling you–”

“No, I’m fine.”

“Do you not feel comfortable talking to us? Do you need up recommend someone–”

“No, dad, I’m fine, really.”

“Clearly you’re not, or you wouldn’t be looking like how you do.” He said, he sighs brushing his fingers through Noah’s hair.

“Noah, you might think I’m harsh but you are a child, sometimes you just need to relax and don’t strain your body and mind and if you can’t talk to us, please find someone who you feel you could freely talk to.”  Amani smiles at him.

“Yes dad,” Noah answers.

But how can he relax when his world could collapse any minute. He doesn’t want to lose his dad, he doesn’t want his mom to suffer, but how can say that and make them understand?

Amani looks at Sihan, “are ready to talk?”

Amani smiles happily at Sihan who blushes this foolary.
