Hanna sat on the edge of the bed after putting her clothes back on. He sat with his head down. The tail of his eyes glanced towards the bathroom when he heard the splashing sound of water from there.
Not long after, Evan looked out also in a state of being dressed. Hanna lowered her head again, there was a feeling of fear and guilt after seeing the disappointment on her husband's face. Because Hanna had continuously refused by crying, even though Evan continued to try to persuade her.
It is not easy for Hanna to remove the trauma after the unfortunate incident that hit her seven years ago. Those bad memories were still so lingering in his mind.
“Sorry, I didn't mean to reject you. I just feel—”
“It's okay, Honey,” sambar Evan. “I don't blame you. It must have been very difficult for you to remove the trauma of that night.” He sat down by Hanna's side and grabbed her fingers.
“I'm the one who should apologize to you. I've been the one who's been traumatizing you.” He rubbed Hanna's long hair with gentleness. “I'm sorry. I must have hurt you so badly that night.”
The tears flowed back down Hanna's face. The pain from the wound is still felt.
“I created that trauma. So I will also eliminate it in my own way.”
Hanna looked up and looked at her husband's face. He could see deep regret there. “Will you try it one more time? I'll try not to refuse.”
Evan smiled, then kissed his forehead fondly. “We still have plenty of time. A relationship cannot be built in a hurry. You really have to accept me without forcing yourself. I'll wait for it.”
“Sorry ..”
“Do not apologize. Come on, I'll take you to the kids' room. After all they'll be looking if they wake up and don't find you.”
Just now that Evan was intending to escort Hanna to the room, the sound of the door being knocked on was already heard.
"Mommy, is Mommy inside?"
Hanna and Evan jumped in.
"That's Sky. How'this?"
****
Evan took the phone off the table. Though he had deliberately turned off the phone so that the beautiful night was not disturbed. But it turned out to be a dead end. Hanna is still traumatized by the events of that night.
Even worse, Sky had to go back to misunderstanding after finding his mommy was not in the room.
Turning on the phone, Evan opens the contact list on the phone, calling someone.
“It's okay. I haven't slept either,” replied someone across there. “What can I help you with?”
"Can you kidnap someone for me?"
Silent! The creature across there hasn't answered.
"Why are you quiet?"
"It's okay. Who should be kidnapped?"
"I'll tell you later. Just get everything ready as usual."
"Well, that's easy."
The call was interrupted, Evan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

This was a special day for Sky and Star, as it was the first day of school. They looked very happy in their school uniform. Although not fully able to speak Indonesian, at least they already understand a little.
“Mommy ... Are there many friends at school?” star asked with sparkling eyes watching her reflection in front of the mirror.
“Iya, Darling. At school you will meet many new friends,” Hanna replied as she combed her daughter's hair.
“But I want to be accompanied by Mommy yes.” Sky hugged his mommy from behind and leaned on Hanna's back.
“Alright, then mommy will shower first. Wait a minute ya.”
Hanna lowered Star from her lap, then walked out of the room. Not wanting her mommy alone and alone with her daddy, Sky and Star tailed behind Hanna, accompanying her to the room.
Once entering the room, Evan looked neat with a navy-colored shirt. He shuddered as he looked at the frowning faces of his two children through the reflection of a mirror.
They still misunderstand me. Geez, I'm going crazy for a long time. Even they were guarding Hanna very tightly.Evan's inner grumbling.
