Exchanged CEO Bride

16. Rest

Currently, Gea was preparing to wear all-black clothes. Don't forget he wears a black scarf anyway. Sunglasses have been perched sweetly on her nose. A hot day did not undo his intention to travel.

Gea walked up to Davin who was waiting for him in front of the house.

"Sorry long. There's something I need to finish."

Davin nodded his head. A sweet smile spread on her lips. Gea got in the car immediately.

Today, is the day Gea promises to bring Davin back to her family. They both want to meet Gea's parents. The atmosphere was quiet, accompanying their trip this time. Davin did not intend to disturb Gea who was staring blankly at the road they were going through. Davin wants to give a little space for Gea.

"Vin, stop by to buy flowers first yes," said Gea suddenly.

"Yes, honey."

Davin is looking for the nearest florist that is in line with their destination. Davin stopped his car in front of a small flower shop. Gea bought a small basket of sprinkled flowers and a bunch of white lilies.

🍂

Gea and Davin walk across a vast expanse of land that is a public burial ground. They walked towards the final resting place of their beloved mother. Gea crouched near the grave of the deceased. Davin crouched down next to Nisa.

Annaya Christi

The name was engraved on a tombstone that is now in the middle of Gea holding. Gea sighed deeply, loosening the tightness that felt filled her chest.

"Mama, Gea comes Ma," Gea said to her mother. Gea smiled faintly. His hand rubbed the tombstone of his late mother.

Gea had no idea what to do other than wait. Remembering memories? He had no memories with his mother that he could remember. She was too small to lose her mother. His mother died when he was a baby. She wanted to feel what it was like to be cared for by her mother. But what power, the will of the Power wants Gea to be like this. That wish will never come true, for destiny is written.

"This time Gea is not just his own Ma. Gea brings Gea's friend and lover, Gea Ma's future life partner. Gea wanted to introduce her to Mama" Gea said.

His eyes began to condense. He wanted to feel like crying, but he held it all his strength so that his tears would not fall. Davin stroked Gea's shoulder gently, giving Gea a warm and soothing touch.

"Hi Aunty, I'm Davin, Davin Angkara. I'm here to ask your permission. I'd like to propose to your daughter in front of you right now."

Davin pulled out a small red box. A beautiful ring had been in his finger's grasp. Davin grabs Gea's hand, then puts the ring on Gea's finger. Gea accepted it with a smile. Davin smiled faintly. He briefly kissed the back of Gea's hand. Happiness enveloped Gea's heart at this moment.

"And today, I want to ask for Aunt's blessing. I want to marry Aunt's son next month. Bless us." Davin's hand held Gea's.

Gea was so moved to hear Davin's earnest words. Unbelievably, her tears had fallen down her cheeks. He slipped into Davin's arms. He hugged Davin tightly. Davin also returned Gea's embrace with no less tight. He gently stroked Gea's back head.

After Gea's heart calmed down and her cries subsided, Gea and Davin left the place. They went to a nearby food stall to fill their empty stomachs.

🍂

"Yeyy finally my rawon came too" said Gea enthusiastically. The hunger had thrown away his shame veins. Davin chuckles at Gea's behavior.

They ate the food they had ordered.

"Be careful, dear" Davin said. Gea just stared at Davin with his trademark grin and still ate rawon voraciously.

"Ahh full," said Gea. It didn't take long, Gea had finished off the food she had ordered.

Davin looked at Gea questioningly. Davin's gaze made Gea misbehave. Davin laughed to see it.

"What's Vin?" asked Gea curiously.

Gea put down the spoon he had previously held. "Say Vin" said Gea.

Davin cleared his throat, and Davin carefully asked. "If you may know, where is your father?"

Instead of answering, Gea just shook her head at the question Davin was asking. His tongue felt like a mute, even just to answer 1 word only. Gea lowered her head, to arrange her heart so she could tell a story.

Davin catches Gea's grief. "That doesn't have to be answered if it's heavy. I appreciate your decision. I'm not gonna force you."

Gea lifted her face then smiled smilingly, "Thank you yes"

Actually he wanted to tell Davin who he was. But Davin's plea left him unsure to tell the truth.

"When can we see your parents?" ask Gea.

"For the time being, we haven't been able to meet them. They were on a business trip abroad for an entire month" Davin said.

"Then how are we gonna get married if your parents aren't around?" Gea's words began to rise slightly.

"Quiet, Honey. I told them and they approved of us. They want us to continue our marriage. They'll see you when they get home."

Davin's explanation relieved Gea's heart. I want that day to come soon. Married to a beloved lover. Imagine it is so happy, let alone experience it?
