66. Start a new life

Since morning the atmosphere of Marvin's house is so crowded. Today they will have their first birthday party for their child. The handsome Nick and as beautiful as Naina .

Marvin eventually bought a large house complete with a playground behind it. Marvin really wanted the number one safety and comfort for his children.

This event was attended by close friends only. Maybe it's just Leo, Arina, Thomas and Emily. Elly's aunt, Mouli's aunt and Mike's uncle are on holiday abroad.

"Are we late?". A voice that turns out to be Thomas coming with Emily.

"Ah.. Look who's coming, baby". Marinka shouts as she learns Emily arrived early.

"How are you Marinka?".

"I'm a good man. How're you? I heard you're back in pregnancy?". Marinka carefully asked. Then hugged the warm woman who had been his rival.

"You're right, and it's too early to tell. My gibberish is five weeks old". Emily's full of haru.

"Gosh, I'm so happy to hear that. Congratulations to you again". Marinka said sincerely. Marinka then breaks her embrace.

"How's aunt Julia doing?". Ask Marinka then. But both Emily and Thomas are still thinking about answering.

"my mother is still as usual. Still moody every day. Maybe he misses my dad". Answer Thomas then.

"I'm so sorry. But I can't do anything. All beyond our expectations. And you know it". Marinka said she was concerned. Marinka pats Thomas's arm.

"I know, but at least it's a punishment for papa. If only he hadn't worked with Mr. Andrew to harm you, it probably wouldn't have happened". Obviously Thomas. Emily just patted her husband's shoulder to encourage him.

"I wish he was free when this child was born. He wanted a grandson". Please Emily with teary eyes.

"Hopefully. We can only pray". Marinka said sincerely.

"You guys have been a long time?". Sapa Marvin who just came down with their two children on the left. Marvin was a bit of a fuss but he enjoyed it. There were two nannies there.

"Not too long". replied Thomas. "hay champ, let's play". Thomas was enthusiastic to get Nick to play. Nick was very happy and did not refuse when Thomas reached out to carry him. While Naina immediately cried because she wanted to follow her mother.

"Here baby, you miss mommy don't you?" marinka said and welcomed her cute little daughter with the two-painted hair. Complete with beautiful bangs.

"You're so exaggerated, even an hour ago you were still with him" Marvin said, landing a brief kiss on Marinka's side of the face.

Thomas and Emily, who saw it, had a good time. They've been through a lot up until now.

"oh yeah, where's Leo? Why hasn't he come yet?" Marinka asked her husband.

"maybe in a minute. He said it was on its way."

"All right, we'll wait" said Marinka.

They are all happy with each other's lives. Thomas will soon have a child with Emily. Marvin and Marinka are happily enjoying their roles as parents. Leo marries Arina even without her parents' consent. And until Leo dared to get out of the house also resigned from his family company.

"We're coming." Arina's voice was very soft from behind the main door. Everyone welcomed him.

"Have you guys been a long time?" Ask Leo to Thomas.

"All right, let's start dinner tonight. Let me prepare it." said Marinka then give Naina to Marvin.

"I'll help you." Emily and Arina then follow Marinka's feet towards the kitchen. To prepare their husband's dinner.

On this sibling anniversary Marinka did deliberately not invite anyone but their families. And Leo is their family, too.

Marinka doesn't like crowds. Since childhood he only lived in a small environment and it greatly influenced the parenting pattern of Marinka to her two children.

He applies the same thing because he really wants to protect Nick and Naina. Although Marvin strongly objected he could not do anything because all control of the house was Marinka. Marvin's job is only to work and make Marinka happy and sikembar.

"How are you Arina? Congratulations on your marriage. I'm sorry I didn't get around that time because I was still troubled by the twins." Marinka.

"Thank you so much Marinka, I'm glad you still care about me. Good news, and we're very happy." There was a point of sobriety that Marinka caught from Arina's thin smile. Even that smile was barely visible.

"You sure you're okay? I'm sorry but I just want to try to make you comfortable. You know we're not really good friends. But I can keep a secret. You can tell me another time if you need a friend." Marinka's smile was very sincere. He wanted to start all over. Arina is married to Leo. He has a happy family with Marvin.

"We can start from the beginning now. I also want to make friends with you." Said Emily.

"Well we're friends now, don't think bad things anymore." Marinka.

"Good look at him Arina, isn't the only one with bad thoughts among us. And he dares to advise us. Go talk!" emily's face pretended to be upset.

"You're right Emily." replied Arina chuckling. Then they both laughed.

"Jeez you guys conspired to make me." Marinka said as if annoyed. Finally, the laughter broke out as well.

"Once more year we'll be together at the park." Emily said happily.

"For what?" Marinka asked confusedly.

"You're so slow, I'll have kids soon, and then Arina will. And if the babies are born into the world, then we will often walk with them, right? Ah I can't wait." Emily said sparkling while rubbing her stomach flat.

"Gosh Emily's a long time ago. You're this." Marinka laughed a lot. Not with Arina. The woman looks so moody.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Why sad? Did my words hurt you?" Marinka panicked to see Arina shed tears.

"Come on, which of our words makes you sad." Emily was worried too. The two women then approached Arina who looked sad.

"I'm fine. I'm just moved." Arina shrunk the tears in the corner of her eyes.

"You don't lie, I don't want Leo to be mad at me." Marinka keeps urging Arina to be honest.

"Calm down, I'm just happy. I'm moved. I used to have no one. Even who my parents are I don't know. But now I have you. I feel like I have a family. And I'm so happy." explained Arina.

"Thank God then. You're freaking me out."

'I don't want you to be sad because of my circumstances, enough I know.' Arina's inner self.
