The sound of clanking clockwork filled the living room of the luxurious mansion.
Adelia sat on the floor with a trembling body. His head lowered, not daring to look up at the figure of the man who was sitting on a single sofa. Staring at him with the gaze of an eagle, as if watching his movements to make Adelia continue to gulp roughly his saliva endlessly.
The moment the sound of something being thrown roughly onto the table was heard entering Adelia's sense of hearing. He hesitated to see what it was.
"Signature" said the Emperor, not changing the flat expression on his face.
Slowly Adelia looked up at the black Map on the table. Both of his eyes blinked several times, jolting when he accidentally looked at the Emperor.
"Why not move to sign it? You want me to drag you into the room, huh?"
Adelia approached the table. Grabbing the pen on the table with trembling hands. Adelia's signature was spiked on the paper, making a small smile appear on the Emperor's lips.
The Emperor grabbed the paper. Rise from her seat with a slight glancing sharply at Adelia, making the girl's body tremble nonstop.
Slowly the Emperor stepped away leaving Adelia, making the Woman sigh in relief for a moment.
Suddenly, the Emperor stopped his steps.
"You didn't say anything weird when you met Aunt Zeline, did you?" asked the Emperor sharply.
Adelia immediately shook her head quickly without daring to look back. He desperately squeezed his arm to stop his body trembling.
The emperor smiled again at the woman's head, "good. If you do this, I won't do anything rude to you."
The emperor walked away after saying this. His feet went up to the second floor, without looking back.
'I want to get out of here. Anyone, help me.' Adelia bit her lower lip.
His chest was tight living inside that luxurious mansion. He longed for his old life, where his lips could still speak words. I can still smile sweetly.
And, do not be afraid every time you close your eyes to fall asleep.
"Miss," call Lora.
Adelia turned her head with tears wetting her cheeks.
"A-You okay? That Tu-Master didn't do anything to you, did he?" Lora asked with concern. Now the girl sat down beside Adelia, holding her hands tightly.
Adelia's cry broke. Lora grabbed the frail body. Hugged him tightly with a sense of tightness that also felt in his chest.
'Forgive me, Miss. I can't help you get out of this place. But I promise, if someday there is a chance given by God. Then I will definitely do anything to help you, no matter if you have to fight Kak Polin.' Inner Lora with pain in her heart.
It's upstairs.
The emperor sat himself on his bed. A sweet smile engraved clearly on his lips stared at the sheet of paper.
"Just wait for time. After that, everything will be fine" he said with a proud smile.
The Emperor turned his eyes in another direction. Sighs slowly while scratching his non-itchy head.
Actually she wanted to do the advice Louis had to say, but she wasn't sure if Adelia would be like her Aunty Rara.
"Luckily Uncle Logan gave me good enough advice so he wouldn't hate me more. Now just approach it slowly," said the Emperor proudly. His current mood was very good, even making a smile continue to be engraved on his always flat face.

Zara looked strangely at her husband sitting on the sofa in their room.
Currently both have been in the mansion that Logan bought for them to live in when they returned to Indonesia. Just in case, because sometimes something unexpected often happens.
"What's with that smile on your face? Did something fun happen?"
Slowly Zara climbed onto the bed with a nightgown attached to her body.
Logan looked at his wife with a meaningful smile, and then put his lips together.
A moment Zara shook her head, then briefly kissed Logan's lips.
"There's nothing." Logan replied with a puffed-up smile on his lips. The man dropped his head on Zara's lap, closing his eyes enjoying his wife's slow strokes.
"I'm thrilled. We can finally spend time together without interruption."
Zara chuckled softly hearing that. His hand kept moving, wiping Logan's hair.
He admitted, quite rarely there is time for them both. He sometimes had to work late at the hospital, although Logan continued to try to persuade him to stop.
But Zara didn't do it. Because it was his dream. There was no way he would just stop after desperately trying to grab it.
Every time she took off to enjoy some time together with her husband who was also super busy at the company. There was a disturbance coming.
Yes, although he could not say if his two sons were a nuisance.
Because Zara also misses her sons who have lived far from home. Even if it is still in the same city.
As he got older, the cute nature of his two sons also disappeared. His first son, Demian.
The figure that now only continues to display a flat face, only a small smile that is sometimes seen.
And, his second son who can be said to be hyperactive. In contrast to his first son, although the faces of the two are not much different.
"What are you thinking, honey?" ask Logan with his innocent face.
Instantly Zara gasped from the daydream. Slightly looked down at her husband's face which did not change much if she was with him. Always able to make him angry himself.
"early old. Don't act cute" said Zara chuckling softly.
Logan pops his cheek. He pouted hearing his wife's words.
"This is how I'm still going a few rounds, baby" Logan said, making Zara laugh.
"Basic! His brain is almost the same as Louis."
Metal Sontak looked at Zara's face. An annoyed look that was clearly visible from the iris of his eyes.
"Curtain!" Logan screeched, "don't equate me with that shameless old Bangka." he regretted.
"It's dirty. Even teaching false teachings to children," muttered Logan increasingly upset considering the matter in the hospital earlier.
"What did you say?" zara asked confusedly who vaguely heard her husband's muttering.
Logan immediately shook his head slowly. He did not want his wife to know, because he could have been interrogated further.
He was afraid, but Zara knew that he was giving bad teachings to the Emperor. Yes, although his teachings are still somewhat better than Louis.
'What kind of man would stand to be his daughter-in-law? I hope the young man can bear to get in-laws like him.' Inner Logan prayed.
"Come on, we'll go to sleep, honey." take Logan to the belly of Zara.
Tomorrow~
A girl is seen watching the fast food in front of her. He was preparing to order, filling his tummy in a rumble because he had not had lunch yet.
"I order this" he said enthusiastically with a smile. It had been a long time since he had enjoyed such a relaxing time.
Three months he was scared. Dare not to come out of the apartment provided by Grandpa and his brother as a hiding place.
Now is the time to enjoy this kind of time, right? Forgetting all the guilt that was eating away at his body and mind nonstop.
He thought like that, until accidentally his gaze met a figure who was standing not far from his place.
Instantly his breath felt stuck in his throat.
