Raina enters the house with Adry. He stopped at the door before actually going inside. His hands were sweating coldly. He looked at Adry who was looking at him lovingly.
This time he was not alone. There was Adry by his side. He is no longer the second, he is the only one. Janeta, he's sure he can conquer it.
Nothing changed from the house, everything looked the same. Leon himself is seen descending from the stairs and approaching Rere.
"Look at what you're carrying" Leon said, showing a wooden doll set in a box. Rere seemed enthusiastic to see it.
"We go to my room yuk, there you have a lot of toys." Leon then took Rere down from Adry's sling. They've been good up first.
"Be careful Leon, your sister hasn't been able to climb the stairs yet and isn't used to it!"
"I forgot I should have taken her on the elevator but I also wanted to take Rere to see this house." Leon felt bad.
"It's okay" Adry said.
They then headed to the second floor where Adry's room was there. Leon and Rere are no longer visible.
When Adry was about to open the room, Frans stopped him.
"Sir, I prepared the room you used to occupy" Frans said. It means the room that was once occupied by Adry and Nita.
"No! I want to stay in this room or just in the guest room" Adry refused. She did not want her home life to be overshadowed by Nita even though it was just a memory. Not because he hates Nita, but rather to guard Raina's heart.
"Then, let the waiter clean everything first. We'll get it ready as soon as possible" Frans said. He then clapped his hands and told the servants to clean the room. Although not used all this time but they still routinely tidy it up.
"Replace the sheets and the blankets" said Frans inside the room, who was still heard by Raina outside the room.
"We'll just go to Leon's room" Raina pinta. They were about to step into Leon's room but Frans called the couple back.
"Madam, I'd like to show you Miss Rere's room just because it used to be the room that was prepared next to Mr. Adry's old room, would it be best now, I would also move it to the room next door?" ask Frans.
"That's a good idea. Quickly clean up because I'm tired. You should have asked before deciding anything."
"Sorry, Sir. I'm not as experienced as Dad."
"Oh, where's your dad?"
"He was already on the plantation spending his old age with my mother."
"Oh, that's good. He must be happy to have gathered with his family in his own house."
"You are right Sir. Now all his problems with this house business have fallen on my shoulders."
"Father believing in you means you're the best."
"Thank you, sir for the compliment."
"You are very fierce with Frans" said Raina. After the man left.
"I've been familiar with him from his little one. He used to be brought here when his mother was visiting his father. Then, I'll fuck her up and she'll never get mad."
"You're outrageous and you have an evil nature too."
"I'm always mean to you when night falls and don't let you sleep before I'm satisfied" Adry whispered. "By the way it's been over a week we haven't slept together."
Raina exhales loudly then leaves Adry who starts thinking about their wild night.

"Are you allergic to drugs?" roy asked to stop the urge.
Karina who was feeling flying now feels thrown back on the soft mattress.
"Why are you asking about that?" ask Karina.
"I don't think this will make you comfortable." Roy pointed to the coating material he already used.
"Then throw it away!"
"How about you get pregnant?"
"You marry me," Karina replied casually. He could not imagine if he had to part with the man after tonight.
"Not that..."
"You mind taking responsibility if it's like that, we'll have an abortion!" karina wanted to know Roy's answer. He then pulled the blanket from and covered part of his body with it.
Hearing the word abortion made Roy's face paled. No. He doesn't want Nita's events to happen again.
"Don't talk about abortion. I hate that word so much. I won't let my son be killed by anyone even if it's his mother. I'll take responsibility if you're pregnant."
"If I don't get pregnant, will you marry me?" karina asked about Roy's seriousness with their relationship.
"I don't know. I can't answer it right now. It's too fast."
"You realize it's too soon" Karina said.
"It's not because I'm not sure about you. I'm even more unsure of myself. I thought you were beautiful and young, you could get more men than me." Roy mende's. "I was too afraid to feel pain again because of love."
"I'm not the woman you mentioned above. I am the me. I want to be like my parents who were committed from the beginning of their relationship and separated by death."
Roy was speechless at the seriousness of Karina's words.
"One more thing, I was so scared to see you helpless yesterday. As if I wasn't ready if you also left me."
"Isn't it because you remember Nita's helplessness that led her to death?" guess Karina.
Roy gasped for a moment. Then he shook his head. "Not that, I'm afraid you'll leave me for good, it makes me sure I want to be with you."
"The reason I don't want you to get pregnant isn't because of all the things you mentioned. I'm afraid your pregnancy will make your illness worse. I don't want to be Adry who has to choose between the life of her lover or her child. For me you are near me. So, here I reiterate, there's no question if you're going to have a child or not."
Karina hugged Roy. Didn't think he would say all those sweet things.
"If people say love is unconditional, I don't think so. I'm making conditions on you if you want to continue our relationship."
"What's that?"
"Don't ever leave me even if whatever happens stays by my side. I don't want someone who's been a part of me to be seen leaving me again, even if it's dealing with death. I'll call you again, if it happens to keep your promise to stay with me forever."
"Death is God's only determining."
"What is the point of praying? You must answer yes and always pray that you will never leave my side forever until I take my last breath."
"You're funny" said Karina.
"No I'm serious this time even very serious." Karina did see Roy's earnest face when she said that. What a strange request. Her thought.
