Bound of Lies

Checking Temperature

Happy reading & ''Double

Celia: I was given this beautiful bracelet from Jamie's om at dinner last night.

Celia said while showing off the bracelet on her daddy and it made Fabian freeze.

It seemed that Renata did not hear Celia and Fabian's conversation because she was taking water to drink.

Fabian: the bracelet is so beautiful. Eat where?

Celia: eat at the Rainbow cafe where the game is so I can play with Collin too.

Fabian: Collin ?

Celia: her son is a doctor.

Fabian felt his chest so tight as a rock. It hurts to know other men crave his ex-wife who he still loves so much.

Fabian: okay baby let's go to bed quickly, tomorrow daddy pick ya home from work.

Celia: okay Daddy. Can't wait to see you.

Fabian ended the call.

Renata returned to her room when the call had ended.

"Daddy called him ?"

"Udah mom, said daddy tomorrow will pick me up after work,"

"Ooh, is daddy not mommy anymore ?"

"Not mom,"

Renata was a little disappointed, since his confession to the investigator made Renata want to be closer to her ex-husband.

Meanwhile in her apartment Fabian feels threatened by what Jamie did to Renata even Jamie has introduced her son to Renata and Celia. There is certainly another meaning behind all this.

"Define Renata's heart only for me, O Lord..." Lirih Fabian in his solitude.

***

That morning Renata woke up with a slightly dizzy head, apparently due to the rain effect last night.

He rushed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast because bi Sumi has been home this week. Inevitably he had to take over the task of bi sumi because Wulan's mother was only in charge of guarding Celia and helping Renata as much as possible.

Celia got off after getting ready for school and breakfast was served.

"Are you okay Mom ? Mommy looks pale"

"Mommy's fine maybe just exhausted. Let's eat it out. Today was delivered by Mr. Wulan again. Mommy's car is still not fixed because daddy is still busy a lot of work,"

Yes, for car business and home needs, Fabian always takes care but because this week Fabian deals with the law so he forgets to bring Renata's car to the workshop.

"Okay mom," Celia replied with her mouth full.

Renata smiled at the child.

Celia spends her breakfast and then prepares to leave with her nanny in the online taxi that Renata had ordered.

Renata is now preparing to leave despite his doubts because his head is getting dizzy.

Renata took one tablet of pain medication and took it hoping to reduce the headache that was attacking him.

***

That afternoon Renata felt his body increasingly uncomfortable, his body felt feverish and his head still felt dizzy until finally asking permission to go home early.

Luckily Renata has a kind boss who allows her to go home.

A message came in when Renata was in an online taxi heading back to his house. Fabian's name was written there and Renata quickly read it.

Fabian: Re, I'll pick up Celia later this afternoon.

Renata who read that was a little disappointed, only Celia who Fabian always asked not herself.

Renata : yes.

Renata again thought "it is ridiculous to be jealous of my own child, Fabian was very close to Celia why I should be envious" said Renata in his heart.

Fabian: have you eaten Re? Watch out for colds last night your hair looks wet.

Renata's eyes sparkled reading that, Fabian was always paying attention to him.

Renata, I'm fine. Don'worry.

Renata lied just don't want to make Fabian worry because Fabian has had enough problems lately.

Fabian: thank goodness then. I'll see you later in the afternoon.

***

That afternoon was what Fabian promised himself to come and get Celia. But when it comes Celia has prepared and just accompanied her nanny. Unlike usual Renata always accompany Celia and deliver her daughter to the door when going to spend time with Fabian.

Fabian tries to think positively maybe Renata is still in the office or blocked by traffic because this has entered the weekend.

Fabian smiled at the cheerfulness of his daughter even though his heart held back the pain of seeing the bracelet that Celia was wearing.

"Mommy hasn't come home yet ? How was that only accompanied by Wulan ?" Fabian asked when it had been some time his vehicle was running.

"Mommy's home from noon but mommy's sick so take the medicine keep sleeping. When Daddy picked me up, Mommy wasn't awake yet" Celia replied.

Fabian was surprised to hear Celia's reply.

"Why does mommy get sick?"

"Last rainy night at home eating the same doctor,"

Fabian clenched his hand in annoyance.

"Princess, Daddy drive to the house or so how ? Daddy wants to see mommy first. Tomorrow daddy's going to pick me up at the oma's house,"

"Asiikkk want dad," replied Celia.

Fabian stopped his car and then turned towards his parents' house to deliver Celia.

***

Now Fabian has been standing at the door of Renata's house with a paper bag containing food and warm drinks.

After waiting for some time the door finally opened and displayed a renata in her sleeping pajamas.

"You sick, didn't you say it was Re ? Where's Jamie's sister ? Are you sick, why not take care of it ? What is more important than you?" Sindir Fabian, upset that Renata has met Jamie, falls ill.

Renata, upset by Fabian's barrage of questions, answered the question in a raised tone "where do I know where he's going and what. I didn't tell you to come here either, Bi," Renata replied as she returned to her room and let Fabian walk to the kitchen and warm up the food she was carrying.

"Do I need to help you, sir ?" Said Wulan who came to Fabian.

"Don't, you just get back to rest, you,"

Wulan complied with Fabian and returned to her room.

Fabian brought the warmed food on the tray to Renata's room.

It looks like Renata is struggling in the blanket.

"Re, let's eat first."

There was no answer, just the headband that Fabian got.

"Re, ayooo eat first. If I don't want to force it."

Renata still did not budge, he did not want to look at Fabian's face is very annoying at this time.

"Rata !" Fabian's jolt in annoyance.

Finally Renata got up and sat on his bed.

Can Fabian see the remains of tears on Renata's face and it makes her feel bad.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry if any of my words offended you" Fabian said, wiping Renata's tears with his thumb.

"I'm not crying," Renata replied lying and Fabian smiled at the sight.

"You're sick like this the more nervous Re, have you taken the medicine yet ?"

Renata shook his head.

"No, I already feel you have not taken medicine must have not eaten as well" Fabian said while scrambling Renata's hair.

Fabian offered a glass of water and Renata drank it.

"I'm bribing ya ?"

Renata shook his head.

Fabian was about to give a bribe to his ex-wife but not a spoonful of food that arrived but his lips that first reached above Renata's lips.

Renata rounded his eyes in disbelief.

Fabian clenched Renata's lips gently and slowly enjoyed her with a feeling of longing.

"A.. What are you doing Bi ?"

Renata asked when their lip links separated with a face as red as a tomato.

"I'm just checking your body temperature Re,"

"When to check the temperature like this, and what if you catch the flu,"

"Since now and this only applies to you and me. I don't care if I get it either" Fabian replied, burying his lips above Renata's.
