Three days after the hospital treatment, Rose was finally allowed to go home and do her usual activities. Together with Allen and Norra, they had just arrived home.
Slowly Norra helped get her mother to lie on her bed, while Allen was in charge of carrying her bag.
"Thank you, honey. Thank you, too, son Allen," Rosemary told the two of them.
Allen put his bag in the corner of the room, then nodded his head. "No problem, ma'am," he replied kindly.
The woman then turns to Norra and asks her to start shopping for groceries, as tomorrow their shop will be open as usual.
"Mom don't just rest? The store can still open later" Norra said.
Rose shakes. "We've been shutting down the store for too long, son. After all, doctors have also said that you can do activities as usual" said the woman.
Norra gave up. He was right, he was just too worried about anything about his mother.
"Well, tomorrow I'll go shopping for cake ingredients, but for now you still have to rest?" tell the girl to smile.
Rose smiled.
"I'm also back at the office, Mom." Allen walked over to the bed and hugged Rose briefly.
"One more time, thank you, son Allen. Though you were busy, but still insisted on picking up and taking Mom home," said Rose unwell.
"It's okay, ma'am," replied Allen. Together with Norra, the two of them came out of Rose's room.
"There's no need to take me out" Allen said, as Norra was about to walk away.
Norra also according. "I hope you don't get tired of hearing our thanks" Norra said.
"And I hope you don't get tired of seeing me wandering around you either" Allen replied with a smile.
Norra laughed a little. A second later, the sound of knocking on the door sounded. It turned out that one of their neighbors had come bearing fruits.
"Sorry, I just got some rest, Aunty Mia," Norra said.
"It's okay. I just want to leave this for your mom. Also send her my apology, for not having time to visit the hospital" the middle-aged woman said.
Norra received the fruit and promised to send greetings to the neighbor.
As the neighbor was about to leave, he did not forget to greet Allen, and asked Norra about their relationship. "So, who is this man Norra?" ask her with a seductive face.
Norra glanced at Allen for a moment, then replied with a timid face. "He's my girlfriend, Aunty."
Hearing Norra's reply, Allen was shocked. His eyes were staring at the girl.
"Ahh, I expected, you guys are dating. Then we'll take this girl, son. Take care and love Norra. He's a good kid" Mia told Allen.
Allen smiled knotingly. He also bowed respectfully to Mia. "It is with pleasure that I will always look after and love him, Mrs. Thank you." Thank you."
Mia laughed a little. The woman patted Allen on the shoulder before leaving.
After Mia's departure, Norra hurriedly entered the house and drove Allen out. He was naturally embarrassed to realize his extremely confident attitude.
Meanwhile, Allen could not remove the smile from his face after hearing Norra's confession. He nightly follows Norra into the house and blocks her way.
"So?" asked the man, folding both hands.
"So, what? Don't you have to go back to the office? Hurry up, it's too late!" screeched Norra suddenly, trying to distract.
"Why is it too late? Kan, I'm the boss!" exclaim Allen confident.
Norra squealed in annoyance. Feeling unable to give up, he answered clearly about Allen's love statement.
His wait for a few weeks was finally answered. They are now officially lovers.
As Allen was talking to Norra, his phone rang again.
"You are the boss, but he has the power" Norra said, referring to Sebastian.
Allen snorted in annoyance. "All right, I'll go first. Remember, never retract your answer!" exclaim that man.
Norra laughing. "It's gone there."
Allen kissed Norra's lips. "I love you, Norra," he said softly.
"I am too." A sweet smile lay on his lips.

Today is a very happy day for Willy, because the father can finally take the time to accompany him to go to the city zoo.
Willy could not remember the last time they visited this place, which was obviously when his late mother was still around. Now, even with different people, Willy still feels happy.
"You happy?" asked Norra who was holding Willy tightly. They were waiting for Allen to change tickets.
Willy nodded enthusiastically. "This is one of my other favorite places, Miss," she replied.
Norra smiled. "I've also been here a few times, and my favorite place is ... Penguin Pool!"
"Penguin Pool!" Both of them say the same thing. They also throw laughter at each other.
"What's so funny? I think I missed." Allen arrived before the two of them with a curious face.
Norra and Willy threw mysterious smiles at each other, before then replying in unison, "secret!"
Hearing that, Allen seemed to be feigning annoyance, but came laughing at the end as well.
Finished from there, the three of them had dinner at a simple restaurant in Norra's favorite suburb. Things Allen never wanted Willy to do all this time.
"Ultimately, when you were healthy, we ate here almost every week" Norra said.
"It's crowded here, which means the food is very good" Allen said.
"of course! I guarantee you, you won't regret eating here!" norra said confidently. Allen laughed a little.
They each ordered their own food. Allen lets Norra teach Willy to take a lobster, some types of sea shells, and fish using a sieve in the available pond.
Seeing Willy so enjoy the moment today with Norra, made Allen's heart touched. Secretly grateful, Willy did not close his heart to anyone else. The son even knew their closeness was not just a peer between the student guardian and the homeroom teacher, but more than that.
...**********...
"Thank you for today" Norra said, looking back, where Willy had fallen asleep.
"I'm the one who's grateful, because thanks to you, Willy can enjoy the holiday this weekend" Allen said.
"I'm happy to see Willy no longer look sad or moody. I hope, at home, he does the same." Norra stroked Willy's hair carefully, so that the little man wouldn't wake up.
"Of course." Allen smiles. The man held Norra's hand and kissed her gently.
"I'll go first. I'm sure you're happy with her gift." Laughing, Norra raised a bag full of food from the previous restaurant.
Allen nodded and left a greeting for Rose. Before leaving, she gives Norra a sweet kiss.
Allen only really left after Norra disappeared behind the corner.
