Amelie the Keeper of the Soul

HONEYMOON

Leon and Amelie put their things away while at Leon's old house. While waiting for the interior process of their house to be completed, they will stay there.

"You're going again?" ask Miranda.

"Leon has to go to Italy, Mom. There's something I have to finish" he said.

"You coming too, baby?" ask Miranda to Amelie.

"Of course Amelie will come with me. She's my wife, Mom."

"God ... Mommy also knows she's your wife. But can't you just lend your wife a little while to Mommy, as long as you're in Italy?"

"No! no borrowing of borrowing. Mommy better borrow Daniela from Mikael."

"Ahhh, that kid. I'm even hard pressed to meet Ela. It's like locking Ela in the room" Miranda said.

"Then, Mommy's with Daddy. Poor Daddy's alone in the company. I have to go this afternoon."

"Ohh!!! Your dad will ask more from Mommy if Mommy comes to the office. The next time he bothers Mommy instead of working," Miranda chirped.

"Later after I'm back from Italy, I'll lend Amelie to Mommy .. but 1 hour yes," teased Leon.

"Basic stingy!!"

Amelie who saw the mother and child quarrel just chuckled. This is what differentiates his family from Leon's. Leon's family is actually close to each other, but the way their affection is delivered is different.

Arriving Leon and Amelie in Italy, they have been awaited by Alvin.

"Congratulations on your marriage" Alvin hugged Leon and gave a few pats on his best friend's back. He also congratulated Amelie.

"How is the coffee shop?" leon asked when they were in the car. Alvin was driving, while Leon was sitting next to him. Amelie sat in the back alone. Amelie knows Leon needs time to talk to his best friend.

"I should have called you earlier. Our problems are over" Alvin said with a smile.

"Done? done what you mean?"

"They've caught the culprit."

"Who?" leon asked to know.

"Lydia," Alvin's words startle Amelie and Leon.

Leon shook his head, "Then .. how did they catch him, wasn't all the CCTV damaged by the fire?"

"They forgot that there was CCTV in the store across the street where the position was hidden, but they could clearly record their actions" Alvin said.

"That's great. I want them to get the punishment they deserve and be able to deter them" Leon said.

"Then .... How about you, Vin?" continued Leon.

"I? why?"

"How is your relationship with Diva? Didn't you say that you would return to Indonesia if you failed to convince her."

"Hmm .. I haven't been able to improve my relationship with Diva. I know it's 100% my fault, not Diva's or Lydia's. I was the one who was tempted and it was lust that enveloped me at that moment. But I thank Diva for coming at the right time so I didn't have time to do it. Otherwise, I would feel disgusted at this time because I had been in contact with a snake woman" said Alvin.

"I'm not giving up, Len. I will keep trying to soften Diva's heart again and .. It looks like I have to meet with David to beg her. I don't care about my pride anymore. I love his sister, so I have to fight for it" continued Alvin.

"I'm glad you're so cute now" Leon laughed. While in the back seat Amelie smiled at Alvin's story.

"I'm not so fucking like you, it's delicious! Don't equate me. I just really love him. It's different."

"Yes .. yes .. yes, it's up to you. I will wish you the best. If you need my help talking to David, I'll help" Leon patted Alvin on the shoulder.

"No need, I'll do it myself. Oya, if the case is over, then what are you going to do here?"

"Of course we have to renovate the coffee shop. Aren't a lot of our staff hanging around living there? During the renovation process, keep paying their salaries. I don't want them to lose their source of income" Leon said.

"Calm down. I know what you look like. I've been briefing them all and asking them to wait for the completion of the renovation. They are happy and want to get back to work. Wouldn't loyal staff be hard to find .. let alone an understanding boss," Alvin teased Leon.

"Then, you should keep an eye on the entire renovation process, Vin."

"Then ... What are you doing?"

"Of course I'm going to honeymoon with my wife, aren't I so fond?" Leon turned his head back and smiled, making Amelie's cheeks flushed to hear him.

"Your Ishhh is not considerate of singles like me," muttered Alvin.

"Eat him, you have to move fast. Otherwise the Diva will be taken by another man."

"No, it won't. I know David was a voter. After that incident, I think David will be more choosy for the Diva couple. The choice will only be one, and that's me" Alvin smiled confidently.
