Chapter 133: Extra Story of Key and Rika 4

Ch. 133 / 164 Sep 17, 2024

"I pray you find the right man," Rika said and sincerely congratulated Wendy. Then she ran to Key's office. She had to make everything clear to him.

Key paced back and forth in the office, he was very impatient. Today, Wendy goes to meet and talk to Rika. He doesn't know what they say, but he hopes it will be good.

The door opened, revealing a human. Key stopped and stared at the door. He is happy when Rika comes back to find him.

Rika walked inside the office and told him. "I'm sorry for sulking at you over little things."

Key shook his head, and he smiled. "You talked to me, it made me very happy. I kept thinking that you would never talk to me again. Wendy explained it all to you?"

Rika nodded. "She said she was afraid of losing you, so she did the wrong things. She's afraid that when you have a girlfriend, you won't be interested in her anymore. Anyway, the two of you worked well together. I shouldn't be blindly jealous. Work is work, love is love. I mixed these two."

Key said with a gentle face. "Your brother also gave me some advice. I'm weak when I don't express my point of view clearly. Now, I understand and I will answer emphatically that I love you. I will be with you for the rest of my life. No one can divide us." He looked at Rika with affectionate eyes.

Happiness welled up in Rika's heart. They looked at each other and exchanged loving glances. That sweet moment was interrupted by David.

"I trusted and entrusted my sister to you, so don't let me down."

They come out of the dream. Key looked up at the general manager standing in front of him. "Please rest assured, I won't make Rika sad or cry."

"How should I trust you?" David said as he placed both hands on Key's shoulders.

"I promise." Key said without hesitation. "I will love her for the rest of my life."

David was delighted to hear Key's words. "You don't have to promise, because I believe you will."

Rika was moved, speechless. She just stared at Key with fond eyes and there were tears of happiness in her eyes.

David left their room.

After work, Key drove Rika to a place.

"Where are we going?" Rika asked while getting into the car.

"You'll know when you get there," Key said and he drove to the orphanage.

On weekends, he often comes here. Rika was surprised, not understanding why he brought her here. But she is still happy because she loves to play with children.

Key visits the kids with lots of toys. He visited the head of the orphanage Mrs. Fidelia and a small donation. They then went to visit the babies, who held a six-month-old baby boy in his arms and breastfed with the help of a bottle. The baby fell asleep in his arms while drinking milk.

He held the baby in one hand and touched the baby's cheek with his index finger, which was of course too soft like a rose petal, and he was very happy to see the baby sleeping in his arms.

When he put the baby in the crib, the baby cried, he patted the baby gently to reassure him and held him in his lap. After a few minutes, he tried again to put the baby in the crib, and to his surprise, this time the baby cried again.

By looking at it, Mrs. Fidelia commented. "It seems like the baby wants to be in your warmth, so hold him on your shoulder a little longer, and try to put him in the crib."

Key nodded to Mrs. Fidelia and did as she asked. This time the baby didn't cry so he just laid the baby gently on the cradle and slept.

Rika said. "The baby likes you."

"Do you want to have a baby? Or we can make a baby together." Key smiled at Rika.

Her face turned red. "I don't want to now. I'm young, I have a lot of work to do."

"I was just joking. I think the two of us are still young for that." Key straightened up and walked away.

Rika followed after him. They went for a walk in the garden together.

"Why did you bring me here? Is this place special to you or do you simply like children?" Rika couldn't hold back her question.

Key was silent for a moment before speaking. "This is where I grew up."

Rika was surprised. "Are you an orphan?"

With his hoarse voice, Key said. "Yes. I was abandoned by my parents. I don't know what their faces look like. If possible, I would love to meet them once, to be called 'Father', to be called 'Mother'. I want to hug them."

Rika is touched by Key's wish. She has a happy, warm family. Therefore, it was difficult for her to understand Key's situation. But when she saw him sad, she was sad too.

Rika knew Key since he was her brother's assistant. But she doesn't know his background.

"Are you mad at them, because they abandoned you?" Rika felt curious.

"No. They are my parents, I'm not mad at them. Without them, there would be no me today." Key said. He walked over to the bench and sat down on it. Rika sat beside him.

"I have to thank your parents for giving birth to you, I have to thank Mrs. Fidelia because she taught you how to live right and be kind to others. I am very happy to have you as my boyfriend." Rika smiled.

Key looked at his girlfriend with loving eyes. "I am very fortunate to have known you and your brother. He has been of great help to me since I worked as his assistant. He doesn't see me as an assistant, he sees me as a member of his family." He wiped away the tears that were falling.

Rika's eyes were also red but she tried to smile. "Now, you won't be alone anymore. I will be by your side, my family will be your support."

Key took her hand. He looked into her wet eyes. "Thank you. I will make you happy. I won't do anything to make you sad."

Rika looked at the man beside her. She smiled and thanked him for accompanying her. He once saved Rika from people harassing her, so Rika is grateful to him.

Key was a little relieved when he talked to Rika.

Leaving the orphanage, they went to eat together. Dinner with Japanese food at the most famous restaurant in X city.
