James quickly let go of Alice's embrace at her nape. And stood looking at his father who had stepped away from the door of the room that he did not close. There was shame and awkwardness when James was going outside to see his father.
"Yes, what's wrong?" james asked, scratching his head.
"What time is it to the hospital?" ask Ben to sit in the dining room
"About 9 o'clock, I drove Al to his apartment" James replied.
"James, don't use Alice as an impingement, you don't love her, but kiss her" Ben didn't see James's face. And James is wide-eyed.
"Papa, who started Alice first, not me" James said in a soft voice.
"Well, but you enjoyed it" said Ben and James, just shaking their heads.

Not felt to have been two weeks om Ben lived his days that he felt a bit heavy, but the effects of the first chemo was not too severe just nausea and sometimes vomiting, everyone's symptoms are not the same, om Ben began to feel the effects of his first chemo that his hair began to fall out, although not much, and his nails also began to blacken.
Om Ben, still carrying out his activities as usual, even had to return to Perth to be active again in his company although sometimes he was tired.
And entering the third week, it will be initiated again for the second chemo, om Ben has undergone a complete examination, because all the results of general checkup are good, so that the second chemotherapy will soon be scheduled.

Edwin and Meisya had a honeymoon to Bali, although only five days, they really took advantage of the short honeymoon because of Edwin's increasingly busy work schedule, especially since Ben asked for help Edwin to participate in managing the company om Ben who in Sydney, while the one in Perth is still managed directly by om Ben.
Meisya sensed Edwin who was starting to ignore her. Bu Minda felt Meisya who was seen often daydreaming in a chair facing the pool. Edwin is getting more and more immersed in work that seems to be non-stop.

The night when Edwin just came, he saw Mei who was folding her clothes in a travel bag. He approached his wife, Mei was silent.
"Is there anything you put on your clothes, baby?" edwin asked while stroking Mei's hair.
"Tomorrow I'll go back to Sydney" Mei's voice was barely heard, but she was able to shock Edwin.
Edwin squatted down looking at Mei's face, holding her wife's thigh, and Mei still looked down, folding her inside.
"Kok suddenly baby, isn't it still a week after your college starts?" edwin asked looking at Mei in confusion.
Mei just quietly let go of Edwin's hand on her thigh, and lay down herself, pulled the blanket and turned her back on Edwin who was still crouching in his full coat.
Edwin was silent, he understood Mei was angry, these two weeks he was very busy, working with his best friend's company, handling the company om Ben, not to mention his own company.
In two weeks, maybe only twice they had time to do a thrilling activity that was because May was fishing Edwin with a bridal gift from Edwina, lingerie terrible according to Meisya. The rest, Edwin more often go home late, immediately go to sleep and early in the morning has rushed to the office.
Edwin immediately opened his suit and shirt, then went into the bathroom. Edwin came out of the bathroom, wearing his t-shirt and shorts.
Then he began to lay down, hugging Mei's body, and brushing the hair that covered his wife's face, he knew Mei had not slept.
Sorry brother, sister is busy these two weeks, a lot of work to be done soon dear, sister is also tired, want to quickly go home to see you, but because late at night, you are often asleep," Edwin felt Meisya's shoulders rise and fall slowly.
"May just feel brother began far away, then why marriage if there is no communication," Mei's voice sounded hoarse and nasal.
"The food is better May went back to Sydney, there May used to be alone," he said still leaving sobs.
Edwin tightened his embrace. He did not know what to say, especially if he was wrong, Edwin should be able to delegate to his deputy director or other managers. But the cooperation project this time requires supervision from him directly because it works with companies from abroad.
"I'm sorry brother, sorry sister Mei, don't come back tomorrow to Sydney, tomorrow brother already there is a meeting schedule that is very important, brother can not send you," Edwin raised his chin Mei saw his face that was still full of tears.
"May can go alone," Mei turned her back to Edwin, shaking off the hand of Edwin who was trying to hug her. Then curled up hugging the roll while crying.
"When we didn't get married, there was always time for May, even in Sydney, you could go back and forth to May, but even after we got married, you were far away, kayak is foreign and strange to Mei," Meisya's voice still holds a cry.
Once again Edwin hugged Mei tightly. His eyes glazed over, Edwin remembered his promise that would make Mei happy, but because of his busyness it became like this.

Morning, Edwin rushed he had several meetings today with several different divisions, he only had time to kiss his wife's forehead without having time to eat breakfast.
Mei just stared sadly at Edwin's tall body that disappeared. Mom Minda touched Mei's hand and Mei smiled at Minda's mom.

"May pamit mother, want to go back to Sydney," said Mei surprised the Minda bu in the dining room.
"Aren't you still a week, baby?" mom looks confused.
"Dad but there are some courses that I have to ask James' mother, because it relates to my thesis later," said Mei trying to find an excuse.
"Edwin knows you're leaving today?" ask Mama Minda.
"It's mom, I told you last night," said Mei with all her might holding back tears.
"Alright, take the mother's car, the mother's driver is ready in front dear, okay there, later kasi kasi news mom if it has arrived," minda hugged and kissed Mei. Then Mei approached Bik Sum who had since looked at her face with sadness, hugging and kissing the cheeks of Bik Sum.
Mei stepped her feet slowly, pushing her tiny travel bag towards the car.
***
Along the way to the airport his tears were pouring down, he was only sad because Edwin was really far away. Mei just realized that marriage is not as easy as she thought.
***
"Dad, my feeling is not good yes, the child is sad about his face, look out for the rest to den Ed, den Ed too, lah wong masi manten new kok sibuk continues, so be careful, let it be left behind gal," said Bik Sum staring sadly at Bu Minda.
"I also thought to see his face, so next week I just follow up the bik," said Mama while trying to call Edwin, but heard a repeated waiting tone.
***
Almost twelve o'clock at night Edwin's car entered the parking lot of his house. He walked and saw his mother in the dining room, his mother's tumben had not slept. He kissed his mother at a glance, then stepped up to the second floor. Mom is still waiting for what happens next.
"Where's Mamaaa May?" edwin's question was expected by Mama Minda.
"You're the husband, you should be the mom who asked you if there was anything in May," Mama looked seriously at Edwin's face half running down to the dining room.
He looks confused and sad.
"I've called you more than five times" Minda said with anger.
"I'm your mama, calling back and forth means it's important, your mama you ignore, let alone your wife."
"So, May to Sydney ma, is she alone?" edwin asked with reddened eyes.
"Oh, so you know, you don't mean to leave Mei" Mama got up from her seat, walked into her room, slamming the door.
Edwin tries to call Mei, but more than five times there is no answer, connected actually, but not raised.

While May was in Sydney, just staring at her mobile phone that looks like Edwin's name is doing repeated paggilan...
