Come today, the day that Papa Rudi will tell everyone about Nathan. The employees began to wonder what their boss would say to the point of inviting so many reporters. No one knows at all except Ben and of course Alvin who Alyssa had told him in advance.
“You sure you don't want to come?” Nathan asked Alyssa who was pairing her tie.
“No, I would be awkward if I was there. I saw from TV only later”.
“While I want you to come!”
“It's done!” Alyssa rewinded her body slightly to see Nathan's appearance.
“How?”
“Perfect! You look so handsome!”
Nathan immediately kissed Alyssa on the forehead and then kissed her lips before she left.
Everyone has gathered. Journalists from various media seem very enthusiastic even though they do not know what announcement will be made by Rudi Aditama.
Papa Rudi had already started to give the opening word to everyone present that day.
“You okay?” Alvin came to Nathan who was sitting with a face that looked tense.
“I'm not okay. I was nervous as if I was going to shoot for the first time” Nathan replied.
“Pull breath slowly from the nose then exhale slowly through the mouth” Alvin gives instructions to Nathan who automatically does what Alvin says.
“Thank you in advance because you guys took the time to come here. I invited you on purpose because there was something important I was going to say. Today I will introduce my son who will be the successor of all the businesses I have been running all this time” papa Rudi then gestured for Ben to call Nathan and tell him to come out.
Nathan gets nervous as Ben calls him. He tried to calm himself again by following the advice of Alvin earlier which turned out to be a little can reduce his nervousness. After being able to control himself Nathan stepped forward with confidence even though his heart was beating unbecoming.
The reporters looked very surprised as soon as they saw that Nathan was coming out. Although they still could not believe what they saw, they simultaneously took a photo of Nathan as soon as he entered the room.
“Hai!” that's the word that came out of Nathan's mouth. Suddenly it became difficult to get out the words he had prepared last night. Only the word ‘hai’ just flashed through his mind at this moment.
“Include, he is my son, Alex Jonathan Aditama! I guess you all know him. Yes, all this time you know him by the name of Nathan Alexander!” Papa Rudi introduced Nathan.
Nathan smiled awkwardly at everyone. And this was his fate, soon he had to leave the entertainment world that had raised his name. Nathan sat next to his father.
“Nathan has proven to me that he deserves to accept a big responsibility to manage the business that I have been running”.
Nathan listened to every word that came out of his papa's mouth.
“But as a father, I want to see my son happy. Today I announce that Nathan will continue all my business if he feels ready.
Nathan didn't listen to the next sentence his father said. He was still fixated on the words of his father who said that he could continue all his papa business if he was ready. Nathan tries to convince himself that he didn't hear wrong. After being sure of what he heard, a feeling of happiness immediately approached him. It felt like there were a thousand butterflies inside his stomach that wanted to fly out.
For a few days papa Rudi turned out to be very thoughtful of Alyssa's words. She lost her first child, Kevin, to selfishness. He did not want such an event to happen again. Nathan is his only son and he wants to see happiness adorn Nathan's days. Although heavy but he believes the decision he took this time is the right decision for Nathan.

Alyssa was the same, she finally did not feel guilty anymore and can now smile happily to see her husband back on set. Although now he is more often left by Nathan to film but it is not a problem for him. If Nathan is filming out of town then Alyssa will stay with her in-laws until Nathan returns. That's what he did so Nathan wouldn't have to worry about him.
“Son, aren't you jealous if Nathan is going to be friendly with his co-star?” mama asked Maya one day when they were cooking together.
“No ma!” alyssa is honest.
“You are very sure once”.
“Iya, because Nathan will not accept the offer of films that have mesraanya ma scenes. I threatened him! Hehe” Alyssa replied with a laugh.
“Good if you have threatened him. Mama was a little afraid that you would be jealous. You know yourself there are many beautiful girls around Nathan”.
“I believe in Nathan ma!” alyssa answered with great confidence.
“Oh yes, how about the sex of your granddaughter? Your gestational age has four months more and must have looked the gender?”
“It's been ma, but Nathan and I asked Clarisa to keep it a secret. Nathan and I wanted it to be a surprise when he was born!”

“Honey, you look more beautiful” Nathan told Alyssa after a month he left Alyssa because he had to shoot outside the city.
“What a lie! You don't see I'm fat like this”.
“I'm not lying, it's serious. You become more beautiful and sexy with a bulging stomach like this”.
“Heemm.. there must be a wish if you have already been rich gini. Come ngaku!”
Nathan started smiling mischievously. It seems Alyssa already knew of his wish.
“By ya?” whining Nathan.
“If I say can not also be free right, surely you will still ngelakuinnya”.
“I'm not strong anymore, a month I hold this dear”.
And so that night became a hot night for both of them. Although he had been holding it for a month but it did not make Nathan to be rude. He still did it gently considering Alyssa was pregnant with her child.
Nathan and Alyssa are enjoying their lives with great happiness. Although sometimes there is a small quarrel in their household but that they consider as a sweetener in their relationship. Mutual trust and communication are key in their relationship. Like nothing could interfere with their current happiness.
Thank you for reading my first novel. Sorry if there are still many shortcomings in the writing and others.
