I'm the Princess of an Actor

Chapter 17

I sat pensively on the bed, a foreign place that would be my resting place for some time to come. Time has shown at 9 pm, but these eyes do not want to be closed at all.

I felt restless, remembering the mother who had to be massaged before going to bed. I actually wanted to call Mira and ask her, but I'm sure she won't take my call, because my number has been blocked by her. As for calling mom, she doesn't even have a cell phone. I don't know who to ask about my mother's condition.

I chose to move, step towards the window and open it. Enjoying the natural scenery is actually not a natural scenery, because more roofs and lights are visible than trees.

The atmosphere here is clearly different from my home, where the view of the rice fields is what I see everyday, also the atmosphere of crickets that are heard at night and in the morning, until the night feels quiet.

Here, the atmosphere feels noisy because of the passing vehicle. Although not much, I still feel a different atmosphere. And don't forget about the warmer air here.

Everything ... felt different, forcing me to realize that my mother and I were now at a distance.

I sighed, holding back my longing for the first time I left for an uncertain time. I don't know what he's doing right now, I'm worried that mom will have a hard time sleeping because she's not getting a massage.

"Not slept?."

I flinched as the door opened, Mas Adam smiled at me.

"Not yet" I answered and then looked back out the window.

"Mom's Kangen?." he asked as he stood beside me, I nodded.

"Sorry to keep you away from him, I promise I'll finish my business here soon."

I was silent to hear it, remembering something.

"What if we go back there we'll stay at Mom's house?." I'm worried.

Considering that Mira wanted me to leave so badly, it seems like that girl won't let me go back to that house. Besides I'm married, it's uncomfortable to leave Mas Adam and Mira under one roof, isn't it?. Despite the fact, I always wanted to be around Mom.

"No, but stay right next to them."

"Besides?."

My memory was fixed on the house beside the mother's house, which was about 10 meters away. The house was bought by someone from its old owner a few months ago, but the new owner was impressed mysteriously. A man, who I remember seeing me from the window of his house when I came home from the judge's house the other day.

The man was almost never seen out of the house, until the actual house had not been built for too long it was like there were no inhabitants.

"I mean the whitewashed house with the black fence?" I asked, the article was only the house closest to the mother's house.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Don't the house have an owner?."

"Yes, and I've rented it. Because other than that house, there's no other house for rent."

I am confused, happy at the same time. Confused because it seemed like it happened that the owner of the house rented it out when we needed a house. Though I've never seen a 'Loved' signpost there.

"Owns expensive huh Mas?." I asked, considering that the house is a pretty nice and well-maintained house. Although the mother's house as a manager is obviously bigger and better.

Adam smiled in response, making me feel bad. Even so I won't refuse either, because I do want to live near mom.

"I'll try to do whatever makes you happy" he said touched me.

"Thank you, sir."

"I'm sorry I just got to give you a rental house."

"I'm the one who apologized for making Mas rent the house when there was this house."

Slowly his hand touched my hair, stroking my head slowly.

"You're beautiful."

"Now go to sleep, it's night."

I nodded, Mas Adam came out of the room after greeting. Without him knowing, this heart pounding had not disappeared even after he left. Does her gentle nature make me fall in love so quickly?.

Ah, it seems that the slander of Mira is the way God brought me together with my soul mate, Mas Adam. I smiled happily, feeling a much better mood, I decided to go to sleep.

...🍁...

I had just finished my morning prayers when I heard the sound of a motorbike coming into the courtyard. I opened the curtain that covered the window, I saw Mas Adam just getting off his bike.

"Where is he?." I muttered confusedly.

Adam went into the house, while I decided not to bother and went out of the room to start household activities.

I was confused where the cleaning tools like brooms and mops, until I remembered seeing them beside the kitchen. Just as I reached the kitchen, I saw Mas Adam in the kitchen whose light had not yet been lit. Until the atmosphere is only dimly lit because it gets light from the middle room whose lights have been lit.

He was seen sipping a glass of water to the toilet, he was not aware of my existence until his eyes showed a surprised look when he saw me. He looked panicked, while hiding an object in his left hand that I had not seen into his black jacket.

Whatisit? Why is he hiding it from me?. I intend to ask him, when Mas Adam actually asked first.

"What are you doing here?" he asked in a high enough tone, not as gentle as usual to make me confused. Because of his body movements, he looked agitated. Moreover, he kept his distance from me as if he was being vigilant.

"You're starting some houses."

He blinked his eyes, looking to catch his breath several times until the look of the face that had previously seemed tense then smiled.

"Why is this morning blind?." His tone again sounded slow, his strange behavior made me suddenly feel confused. Where is the real Adam, who is now or who is full of tenderness like yesterday?.

"I used to wake up in the morning at Mom's house, Mas. It feels strange to wake up too late. It's also five in the morning, so it's not too early." I replied as is.

"Here's your house too, so there's no need to get up this early for some, you can rest longer" he said smiling.

I don't know why I heard it as an order, as if he really didn't like it when I woke up too early. Is it because I saw him who just came home. And what was he saying so that this would not happen again? Does that mean he comes home early?.

"Eum, I'm not used to it. So..."

"Just from now on you don't have to get up this early!" he said sternly, sounding like an order that received no rebuttal.

I rounded my shocked eyes not expecting him to raise his voice at me. The gentle attitude he just showed back changed with a tone that seemed rude.

I lowered my head, only able to nod obediently in confusion, as well as a pain that I could not understand why. Suddenly Adam took me into his arms.

"I'm sorry for yelling at you" he said in a soft voice. 

Adam released a hug, cupping my face with his hands that felt so cold. A regret was clearly reflected on his handsome face.

"Once again, I'm sorry." He peed my forehead long enough.

Whether true or not I felt she was crying without a sound, and her tears were dripping down my face. He took his kiss off my forehead, then looked back at me.

"Sorry for letting you pray dawn alone, next dawn we'll do it together."

I just nodded, Mas Adam smiled faintly then entered his room.

"Why are you?." I was confused.

I felt like something was wrong, she was not only apologizing for yelling at me, but for something else. An important thing, which he was hiding from me.

Seriate.
