After Alex's departure, Icha exited the room and headed to the dining room because she was very hungry. There bi Siti has prepared a breakfast that arouses the appetite of pregnant women.
"Well, it looks good." Icha sitting on the dining table chair. He took rice and vegetables made by bi Siti.
"Mr Alex has left non?" ask bi Siti
"Bi already. He rarely had breakfast. At best just drinking coffee. Keep him healed, so I forbid him to drink coffee first." Icha explained
"Well, non Icha is of the same concern, Mr. Alex. It's like his wife." seduced Bi Siti
Icha smiled bitterly. He also wanted to be like that, but unfortunately that was not possible. He was only in contract to become the seed-holder of the man. After her child is born, their contract ends, and Icha will return to her former life.
But wait, not much is known about her relationship with Alex. But bi Siti...
"What's non? Why does non Icha see aunty like that?" ask bi Siti
"Bi Siti knows my relationship with Mr Alex?" tanya Icha make sure
"He knows non. But non Icha calm down, all safe. After all, aunt also still loves life, non."
Icha speechless. Exactly as expected. Alex must have threatened anyone who knew of their relationship and the deal they made. But maybe bi Siti knows the reason why Alex won't marry.
"Why the hell non? Kok from earlier aunt noticed, non Icha mostly daydream." exclaimed bi Siti
"It's okay bi, I'm just curious. Why didn't Mr Alex get married and have children of his own? but she'd rather find a woman to conceive her child without being tied to marriage."
"If it's the matter anyway, aunt doesn't know for sure non. But aunty never heard her quarrel with mistress fitting aunty still working in the Wiratama family mansion."
"fighting? They're fighting because of what bi?" ask Icha
"The Lady always forces you to marry. But the master also steadfastly refused the mistress' request. Master said, why marry if you have to finally separate and live to suffer for betrayal. That's what aunt shits."
"Are Alex's parents still complete? I mean, madam's husband....
"O.. That's bi. Thank you bi, I've been chatting." exclaimed Icha
"Sama-sama non, yes already aunty continued to work first." bi Siti left Icha enjoying her breakfast at the dinner table.
Now Icha knows why Alex does not want to get married.Possibly the man was traumatized by the divorce that occurred to his parents. Or maybe he experienced violence and saw the quarrel of his parents who finally decided to divorce.
It seems like it will be a little difficult to restore Alex's confidence about the sanctity of marriage. His memory was filled with bad memories from both his parents.
But just because it made her completely unwilling to marry? It doesn't feel possible. Did he ever get betrayal from the people he loved? If that's true, it's appropriate for Alex to behave that way. Does that mean he still has a chance? He can still take Alex's heart, by bringing love into the man's heart. There's no harm in him trying, is there?
Meanwhile, in the company with the AL'X Company logo. Alex seems to be not concentrating on work. Not because he was still sick or because he felt nauseous. But because Icha's words are still ringing in his head. He thought, Does she want a marriage? Does she want him to marry her?
But that's not possible because they're already under contract. And it's all written clearly if Alex just reminds the child of Icha with no marriage ties.
Or maybe, Icha has planned his future life after giving birth to his child? Is she going to marry another man?
"Oh..!!" Alex leaned back. He closed his eyes as his head throbbed again.
She doesn't want to marry anyone including Icha, but she doesn't want to if Icha is married to someone else. Selfish indeed, but can't they be like this next? Life without ties but they are always together, so if a breakup occurs, they will not feel too much pain.
But he knew Icha wouldn't. He believes that if Icha wants a real relationship that is the sacred relationship of marriage.
But he could use the child to make him take a little longer to be by his side.
"Gosh, what am I thinking? Isn't that what I wanted from the beginning. Having children without marriage. And soon I'll get it. But to part with her mother, why is it so hard?"
Alex was silent for a moment. But suddenly he remembered Ridwan's words. "A feeling you've never felt that suddenly comes when you're around a woman. Comfortable feeling when with him, longing when away from him, jealous when he is close to others. And not willing if he leaves us. It can be called a symptom of love. You're in love, Al.""
Alex holds his chest. His heart was racing again. "Are you, I'm in love with Icha? I am comfortable with him, I miss him now. The thought of her going out with another man, made me jealous. And I'm not willing if he leaves me after the contract ends."
"God Alex... What's wrong with you, huh? cook like this you don't know?" Alex looks frustrated. It seems like he has to confirm it once again. Or should he try? Trying to open his heart and accept Icha occupies his heart. Yeah, looks like he should.
