Hi, sorry for the delay. A week huh? hope someone is waiting for you. Hopefully you can still be patient and understand, because I am not fully written too, so I am not as often as that also make a writing. But I always try to keep updating.
Happy reading^^^^
Enzo had expected that this would happen, when the father wanted to see him without giving a reason first. It was certain that this was about the gossip that had spread throughout the city about her as well as the mysterious woman. As long as he lived his life as a young businessman, his father never interfered in his work, the older man would only find out about lovers and which women should
in marriage, and must be sure if the woman will give benefits in visible form.
The absolute thing happened in Enzo's life that had become so colorless, until a foreign woman named Elle who dared to enter his life slowly. When he had already set his heart, why would it be this difficult to reach the woman? Never before had Enzo met such a difficult woman, Cecilia used to be stubborn as well, only Elle was at a stage that was already very extraordinary.
It seemed like it was very difficult to remember Elle without having to bring Cecilia into his mind. Even a long time like this had not been able to erase his memories of the woman. Their memories
it's too deep and too painful to forget, and Enzo can't do it either.
“What father want to see me?” ask Enzo.
Under the guise of dinner together, Gioto managed to drag back his son to go home—interrogation precisely—because indeed Enzo very rarely visited the home of his parents if not in
call by the mother.
The reason is only one, and it has never changed. The father will re-receive him with all the principles he has, that there must be a woman beside Enzo who will further succeed his career as a young entrepreneur. Though if you think about it again, since long ago it has also been very successful without a lover beside him.
“Gossip is true?” Gioto stared intently at his son who was sitting lazily on his study couch.
“Dad can call me, without having to ask me to come,” grumbled Enzo.
The relationship between the two has improved a little, although the debate one or two times is always inevitable. Do not ask again what is debated, that is the reason Enzo rarely visit, because talking with his father will not be enough for just an hour or two. In the end they will pass through the night, and Carra will come to scold the two.
“It feels like it will be another when you say it directly. So what's your relationship?”
“If I say yes, will you stop harassing me with all the matchmaking you made?”
“Means the answer is yes. Do you like this woman?”
It's like it's not his father. Prabowo Gioto would not easily ask this in a relaxed state like this, there must be something unpleasant. Supposedly, his father nagged him and started giving him long advice, then just asked the question.
“Daddy didn't ask that question wrong? Because it feels so awkward now.”
Gioto grinned from behind his desk. It turned out that the son really understood himself, he would not be that easy to approve any news about his only son. Especially with women with no clear origin. Only one he always thought of, a benefit to his family.
“Then is he the reason you reject a woman that you often marry?”
“If you already know the answer, why ask me again? For this time, I will reject anyone you've betrothed me to. Besides, I can benefit in my own way.”
Yeah, that's true. During this time Enzo has devoted himself to several companies owned by them that indeed stood successfully, all for hard work and cold hands Enzo. Gioto admitted it very much, just that there are some things he wants to achieve, to perfect what he already has, he said, Enzo is included in it and dreams of having a daughter-in-law from a family that is also intact and has a name in the world of entrepreneurs.
“Do you still think about Cecilia's death?”
“I've forgotten him for longer than you can think, so no need to worry. Cecilia and Elle are two very different women, do not compare them.”
Basically, Enzo hasn't completely forgotten about Cecilia. The woman still entered his mind several times, and Elle sometimes made him remember Cecilia by accident. But, the feeling that he
yesterday's intention was sincere feelings for Elle, Cecilia never contributed in the affairs of those feelings.
“I hope you honestly say that. There's nothing wrong with this woman you call Elle, but I hope you also know that this woman has a relationship with Brian Dennis Park, the man you invested in.”
A mysterious smile rose on Enzo's lips, in the space of seven or eight years, perhaps the first advice given by the father. “Dad didn't think that I didn't know all that, did he?”
Gioto shrugged his shoulders. His son is very mature, and he is also getting older. All he wanted for his old age life was calmness. You guys don't believe that? From now on you must learn to understand.
“I hope this woman doesn't make you lose your way again, because your mother and I only have you.”

“What do you think, MbakNabila Juna has a relationship with? I'm not sure they're just coworkers.”
“I also really often wriggle them dinner together abis home office, where often overtime together, right?” the woman with the bob haircut chimed in.
“And of all those things, it is impossible that Juna voluntarily confessed all that. Definitely Mbak Nabila who seduced the Juna, know for themselves how the widow of today, they are more shameless.” The woman with red lipstick and beautiful hair also entered the conversation between the two friends.
“Means you have to date your business, Lin. The time you lost to widow.”
“Quietly, I have many plans to attract the attention of Juna, you just wait. Arlina won't give up just because of one hurdle.”
“You haven't slept, Bil?”
Nabila's daydream suddenly collapsed due to the soft pat on his shoulder. He had just put Aidan and Alya to sleep, the clock had just crawled towards the number ten. It's too early for him to pick up the dreamland, and he can't sleep either. Juna's confession the other day succeeded in seizing his mind, plus the sentence he heard in the woman's toilet weeks before.
It was not the first time, but after several times listening to such a sentence coming out from the mouths of co-workers from different divisions, it felt many times more pain. He still has the heart and mind to decide what his choice is.
“Not sleepy, Mama hasn't slept?”
She took off the glasses she was wearing. Because it is too early to go to sleep, getting the job done is the best way to go. Maybe just for a tranquilizer or reliever of the burden of the mind that has been trailing the beautiful head. It all started when he learned of Reno's affair to this day.
“Newly sleeping, Ma. Mama's not resting? Must have been tired of Aidan being like Alya all day, right?” said Nabila with a gentle smile.
“Mama ngurusin them, mama's old age so more colorful because of them. All those tired pay off by looking at their smiles.”
Nabila's smile grew. He nodded his head without hesitation, his tiredness instantly dissipated when he found his two children smiling to welcome his return. Drugs that won't be taken anywhere.
“You again have a problem?” ask the mother.
“Nabila even to forget, when exactly Nabila life free from problems,” replied Nabila with a thin smile. There's been too much that he's been through, until he's immune to it.
“What is this men's problem?”
“More precisely in droves.”
Mama clapped her hands enthusiastically, seeing from the look on her daughter's gloomy face since then, she had guessed that the matter this time was very special. Because when it comes to work, Nabila will be very noisy and noisy.
“If mom is your age, I will definitely accept this guy.”
“Although in widow status?”
The gaze of the two met long enough, no need to explain twice or other times, mama already understood what her daughter was thinking. It is no secret that the status of widows does have more exclusive stereotypes. Nabila grew up to be a good woman and also independent even though she was an only child, there was nothing wrong in her upbringing, this daughter was only wrong when accepting men.
The problem is not about love, although that is also what is needed by both lovebirds. When it is in the marriage stage, then there are two families involved, there is a commitment in him, a trust that is also very much needed. If you only need love, then you can immediately find teenage girls.
“If you are indeed uncomfortable, you can honestly let go of him. Mama don't want you to feel burdened again, let go of that feeling before it all grows deeper.”
Nabila wants to do that, he wants to let go before things become more serious, he does not want to be a gossip in his office, he wants to be a gossip in his office, he just wants to live his life quietly with his mom and his two children, but there is also concern there.
“What if Nabila also already loves him, Ma?”

Already so far he reached Germany, to choose a vacation spot that is also quite far, it seems there is still something left if Richard did not visit both Kate's parents. It seems, the news if the two are back together has spread again, and of course it reaches the ears of his future father-in-law—nanti.
“So, you guys have decided on a good date?” ask Anthony—father Kate.
Without processing the question as well, Richard already understood what date Kate's father meant. Of course the wedding date. The mushroom chicken spaghetti he was chewing almost came out of his throat again with a very sudden question. In fact, if Richard wanted to, he could immediately find the nearest church and immediately hold a wedding ceremony.
“Dad has no other questions?” ask Kate.
“Only that's the important thing I want to know, your relationship is already very suitable to step into a more serious stage. I didn't even know you guys were back together again.”
There's a reason why Kate banned Richard from attending their dinner or other gatherings, because of questions like these. Imagine if in one day they had a lunch to dinner appointment, in just a few hours and they would soon lose their breath due to the question of marriage itself.
“Ah, the ...,”
“No need to rush, Uncle. We're still enjoying our two hours,” cut Richard. He clasped Kate's hand under the table, a hand that suddenly broke out in cold sweat because of the question
daddyh.
“Even three years is not enough for you to know each other? And you also still call me Uncle, I have told you many times to call me Dad,” said Anthony firmly.
Richard laughed a little. Even though the sentence was said firmly by Anthony, but he knew that Kate's father did not really scold them. But seeing Kate who was already in cold sweat beside him, gave him a little entertainment.
“Alright, Father. Give us more time, even three years managed to get us apart, right? We just still can't hold back our respective egos.”
“Not about how long you know each other or understand each other, every relationship has its own ups and downs, even those of us who have been together for decades are still experiencing it. So, if you feel mature, it's okay to get to a more serious level.” Allison—ibu Kate—china.
The middle-aged woman spoke very rarely, but very well and understanding, she spoke softly and was also polite, very contrary to Kate who did not go down that nature from her mother. Many people think that Kate is not their second child, because they are very different
The dining table was suddenly silent after the sentence uttered by Allison, such was Allison's influence on her small family. She is really destined to reduce the attitude and temperament of her husband who can sometimes exceed that limit, and do not forget Kate who also always crossed the line.
“Why are you quiet? Aren't you guys hungry?” allison asked innocently, there was a small smile on her face.
“Bu, I'm sorry if I'm so presumptuous to ask this, but I'm really curious why Kate didn't go down at all?” ask Richard.
Allison laughed at Richard's serious question, and saw that face that showed no witty look, a serious question.
“What is it that has made you so far reluctant to marry Kate?” ask Anthony no less seriously.
“Richard, the woman you're talking about is here,” Kate replied in annoyance. “What such a question is so important to ask? Are you going to break me up again after you find out that I'm not their real child? Just because of a different attitude? Very silly.”
Typical of Kate when she is upset and sulking, she will say something in one breath. Whether Richard is very insensitive to the situation or he just wants to see Kate and all his feelings of regret, he just shrugged his shoulders as if he did not care about Kate.
“More precisely, I want to piss you off.” Richard smiled witfully. “Then you can suddenly turn into like your graceful mother.”
Kate looked at Richard who was laughing with satisfaction in annoyance. Anthony and Allison simply watched the romance with bated smiles. Seeing Richard's gaze on Kate was able to convince Anthony if he did not choose the wrong man for his daughter.
