LOVE IN LIFE
33
At Ayu's house, Harris arrives at 12pm, as usual. Ayu greeted him with a sweet smile and a warm embrace. The treatment she never got from Maria.
"Darling, cape huh?" ask Ayu spoiledly.
"Yes, there is a lot of work to be done, because tomorrow the shareholders meeting" Harris explained after peeping the cheek of his beloved wife.
"Are shareholders?" Ayu.
Ayu's hand coiled around Harris's arm then invited her to eat.
"What's dinner tonight?" ask Harris.
"I cook spaghety Fettucini, you'll love it" Ayu said excitedly.
But Harris had little doubt about it. Ayu is not a woman who is good at cooking. She is an actress, her job is not possible for her to learn to cook when young. So that at middle age like this, even though his face did not change much, but he began to have difficulty learning to cook. The taste of the cuisine is always strange.
Another case with Maria who since adolescence has always learned to cook and become a good daughter for her family.
Harris tried his food, though he was hesitant. And finally his facial expression changed after his tongue tasted the taste of his food.
Ayu watched and waited. But Harris just smiled.
"Darling, food...."
"Why? Not good, huh?" ask Ayu disappointedly.
"Hahha, sorry dear. You don't fit in the kitchen. You fit him in front of the camera and in bed" Harris teased him not to get angry.
Ayu put on a grim face, she was upset that she still could not satisfy Harris with her cooking.
"You haven't eaten yet, we order through the application alone" said Ayu.
"No, I ate at home" Harris said.
Ayu was surprised, Harris said it as if it was a habit she was happy to do at home before coming to her house.
"Oh, yes already" Ayu replied with a flat face and took off Harris' hand.
Harris understood the feelings of Ayu who was again offended by his words.
"Yeahayang! Don't get mad, mama asked me to eat before leaving. So I eat, not because I like Maria's cooking"
Persuade Harris to Ayu who leaves her to the tv room.
"I'm okay, you want to like the cuisine Maria is also okay. The important thing is that you live here more than in that creepy big house" Ayu said while sitting with overlapping legs.
Harris scratched his head, confused to say much more. But he remembered the news that he had received the person he paid to look for Gendis and Saga.
"Oh yeah, I have news you're sure to like" Harris said.
"What's that?" Ayu tried not to care.
"My people found Gendis and Saga" Harris said as he looked at Ayu's face, waiting for her response.
Sure enough, Ayu was excited to hear the news about Saga.
"Where are they? Can we meet Saga?" ask Ayu hoping.
"He's in Montreuill, Italy. I'm gonna let Oma know about this and force her home. I heard he had a kid there" Harris said.
"Ah..daughter? Grandchild for us?" Ayu was very happy.
Harris nodded and stroked Ayu's hair.
"Do I deserve a grandchild?" ayu asked stroking her own face.
"You're going to be a beautiful young grandmother, people are going to envy our grandchildren because she's young and very beautiful" Harris said.
Ayu blushed, she leaned her head against Harris' chest.
"Will mom be able to force Saga to come back?" ask Ayu doubtfully.
Harris silently stared at the outside window.
"To be able, Saga only listened to her Oma's words. He would have come back if mom had asked" Harris said.

Oma Mira got a call at her desk. Alex is still looking for Amelia's address and she hasn't found it yet.
His eyes were round as he finished listening to the words of the person on the other end of the phone. Then he saw the message that the man had sent. A contact with an overseas number is listed there. Oma Mira took the house phone and tried to call her.
"Hallo, Martin's family home is here" Gendis answered the phone.
"Snake!" exciting Oma.
Gendis was silent, her body goosebumps hearing a familiar voice in her ears. Peter who was in front of him was astonished by the expression on his wife's face. He raised both eyebrows, asking.
"Mrs Mira!" replied Gendis trembling.
Peter gaped in disbelief.
"Don't hang up on Gendis, please. I'm sick, can you get Saga home?" Oma lied.
"You sick?" tanya Gendis was less trusting.
"I forced myself to call, I beg Saga to come home with his son and wife" said Oma with a little pretending to gasp.
"But Oma.." Gendis was about to say that Saga was not married.
"I beg you, I don't know until when I can hold on. Tell Saga to go home" again Oma pretends to be weak.
The saga carrying Dama listened from the stairs. He handed Dama over to Amelia and asked for her call from Gendis.
Gendis looked at Saga, hesitating to give her the phone. He wasn't sure Oma Mira honestly said that.
"Please aunty!" said Saga.
Peter nodded, he asked Gendis to give it to him. Gendis slowly gave it to her, Saga instantly listened.
"Gendis, tell Saga, I will accept his son and his wife and all his wishes, as long as he wants to come back. I may not live long in this world..."
"Omaaa, don't say that Oma. Saga is coming home, Saga is taking Saga's wife and son. Oma must live a long life, Oma must see, Oma's great-grandson"
Amelia rounded her eyes hearing she was recognized as a wife by Saga to her family. His eyes turned to Gendis and Peter, and they were shocked as well.
Dama cried, Amelia had to suckle him. She was about to take him to the room, but Oma Mira heard her cries and asked to more clearly listen to him.
"It's Oma, she's crying because she wants to suckle" Saga said as she looked at Amelia with a smile.
Amelia lowered her gaze at Dama. Saga holds Amelia's hand to convince her.
"Oma very happy dear, come back! Take them home" Oma said.
Oma hung up. She sighed loudly because she was quite upset by the news that Saga already had a child from a woman she did not know her origin.
"We'll see if he deserves to be Narendra Coltin's daughter-in-law or not. If not, I have many ways to get rid of it" said Oma Mira.
###
Maria stood up from the couch to protest at her mother-in-law's decision.
"Sit down! I'm not done talking!" oma Mira exclaims by pointing at Maria.
Maria nodded loudly.
"Not looking for Amelienya Davin, you asked Saga to come back. He who wanted to leave this house, no one forced him. Why bother asking her back" said Maria annoyed.
"That's all your son Davin's fault. He's sick and troublesome. Saga is married and has children. He's already given offspring to the Coltin family, that's more important. If Davin still wants to find that woman, please, I won't stop him. You also have to fight for your descendants instead" said Oma Mira.
Maria gaping in disbelief was wrong for giving up on her in-laws the other day to ask her to look for Amelia. He was upset and came out of Oma Mira's room.
Her steps came to a halt as she saw Bella standing up listening to their conversation. His eyes looked at Maria with tears.
"You're planning to find the woman my husband loves. But Oma instead asked another heir to bring his descendants home. Then what does it mean to be the daughter-in-law of this house? A tool for producing offspring? It's useless if there's no offspring. You don't even care how I feel hearing all this from you"
Bella speaks in front of Maria and Oma who also knows she is there.
"You understand now. Adapt it! Our feelings are not a priority even though we bear offspring in this family"
Maria left Bella still staring at Oma Mira who turned her eyes to the file before her. Bella understands Oma is ignoring her.
Bella left Oma Mira's room with weak and slow steps. The crying in his eyes could not be contained. He had wrongly chosen to marry the first love of his life.
