The Destiny 2: Extraordinary Love

Two Romantic Couples and a Bullies

Nana walked slowly with a tray containing a bowl of porridge in her hand. He steps into his grandmother's room, Calista.

"Grandma, let's have lunch first. I've made porridge for grandma." Nana.

Grandma Calista opened her eyes, she turned to the granddaughter.

"You're still here? Grandma thought you were home." Grandma Calista.

Nana smiled, she put the tray of porridge on the nightstand, then stood beside her grandmother, helping the old woman to sit leaning on the headboard.

"I how can I just go home and leave grandma, even though there will be a waiter who takes care of grandma. But I made a promise with papa, as long as you go to work, then I'll take care of grandma." Said Nana while sitting on her grandmother's bedside.

"Why are you bothering yourself only for parents like me? Besides, didn't you go to college? Grandma's worried your parents might get upset how?" Ask grandma Calista.

Nana faithfully displayed her warm smile, like the sun shining in the morning, not stinging yet so warm and nourishing the skin.

Nana grabbed the porridge she had put on the nightstand, slowly scooped the porridge and began to feed it to the grandmother.

"Grandmother need not worry, I have permission with my mother, and again, today is Sunday, my university is off." Nana replied after she had successfully sucked a spoonful of porridge into her grandmother's mouth.

"so yeah. If it was like that, grandma would feel calm now. Grandma's just afraid that your parents will be angry because you've been in this house too long and you've met your dad." Calista's grandmother said as she opened her mouth to receive another mouthful of porridge from her granddaughter.

"Yes. Oh yeah Grandma, can Nana ask Grandma something?" Nana asked, her face looked doubtful with the question she was about to ask.

"Of course you can, just ask whatever it is, don't be afraid of your own grandmother, as long as grandma can answer it, grandma will answer."

"That— grandma, what's the reason papa won't marry again?" Ask Nana.

Hearing that question, Grandma Calista for a while, she looked silent. I don't know what he's thinking.

"Grandmother? Did this question offend Grandma? Sorry, it's not Nana's intention to hurt Grandma. Nana was just curious and wanted to know the reason. But if grandma doesn't want to answer it also doesn't matter. Grandma just forgot Nana's question. Nana also apologized for asking grandma that question." Nana said with her worried face. He was worried that his grandmother would also silence him like Alex at that time.

After Nana said that, Calista's grandmother, in silence, looked at her granddaughter. Then, a tinge of smile that was drenched in an aura of sadness emanated from his face.

"No need to apologize. What did you do wrong? It's not wrong to ask like that. Everyone out there must also be curious about your father who chose to be single until his forties." Grandma Calista said.

Nana put the remaining bowl of porridge on the nightstand. Then then, his hand moved to grab the grandmother's hand, Nana clasped the grandmother's hand, giving a sense of warmth and tranquility to the old Calista.

"I guess, grandma must also not know the reason why papa is still not married until now, right?"

Grandma Calista smiled as she returned the hand of her grandson.

"You're right. Grandma didn't know the reason why your dad didn't want to get married until now. But it must have something to do with you and your mother." Grandma Calista said.

Nana's face looks bent, she had been expecting it all this time, the reason her biological father did not want to get married is definitely because of her and her mother, Rachel. But what Nana wants to know is why? Why is it because he and his mother, Alex never intended to get married?

"What I guess. I already know about it, Grandma. But— does grandma know why because of me and my mom, papa so don't want to get married?" Ask Nana.

"Of course, grandma also can not answer with certainty. But as grandma remembers. A long time ago, when your grandmother and your father had a fight, she once said that you were proof that she was married. So chances are, all this time he set his mindset that he was a widower man who had failed in marriage. But it's just a possibility, a matter of right or wrong, all only god and your father know." Grandma Calista said.

Time has passed, the sky has shown an orange color. While the sun appears to be approaching the western horizon, preparing to sink and complete its task.

The sound of knocking on the door from the outside of Ana's study room rang out, making the middle-aged woman stop her activities tidying up her belongings and prepare to go home.

"Who? Login." Said Ana while staring at the door of her study.

It didn't take long after Ana told the person outside the door to enter, the door opened, revealing a middle-aged figure that still looked dazzlingly handsome.

"Ray, you came to pick me up on purpose?" Ana asked as she pulled her bag, carrying it. Then she approached her husband.

"Hm, of course. I haven't been to a restaurant for a long time to pick you up. That Yuan always stole my chance to pick you up." Ray said, he grabbed Ana's body and grabbed her in his arms.

"What's wrong with you? You're jealous of your own son, aren't you?"

"How could I be jealous of that boy. I just miss you." Answer Ray.

Ana rubbed her husband's back gently.

"You tired? Have you eaten yet? " Task Ana.

Ray let go of his embrace, then peeked long at Ana's forehead, leaving a warm feeling in the middle-aged woman's heart and soul.

"It's so tired, from this morning until the afternoon, I had to step my feet here and there to oversee an important project near the city park. Maybe if I was young, such an activity would not matter, but given my middle age, it made my whole body feel tired instantly." Complain Ray.

Ana gave a small laugh at the complaint from her husband, then she moved her hand and massaged Ray's shoulder. But only briefly, because after all Ray was still like a towering power pole for Ana.

"You want me to massage?" Ask Ana.

"Can."

"Well, let's go home, you must be so tired. It's so sorry my husband." Ana said as she pulled Ray's arm out of the study and went home.

Yuan stood at the door of Rose's apartment with a sad look on his face. Not really sad, but more like a complaint.

"Come home, why are you still standing here?" Rose asked her boyfriend.

"Can I stay here?" Yuan asked back with a question capable of making Rose sigh for the umpteenth time.

"Have you lost your mind? How could you think of staying at a girl's apartment? What if your parents find out? They can misunderstand me." Said Rose.

"Yuan, listen to me. When the problem was different, you were in a position to run away from home and have no place to live, I as a person who has a lot of debt to you, how could that time not help you."

"Yes already, then, now I'm going to run away from my house again. So you're gonna let me stay in your apartment, right?"

"Don't be crazy Yuan. Just be careful if you try to run away from home again." Rose Threat.

Yuan further bent his face, he looked extremely lethargic, feeling lazy to leave from Rose's side.

"You really don't understand me." Complain Yuan.

"What should I understand from such an unworthy attitude? If you run away from home again or you force me to stay in my apartment, then a lot of people know how you and I will deal with your parents, they'll be ashamed and very disappointed in you." Said Rose.

"I just want to stay at your house, it doesn't mean I'm going to impregnate you, yaa— even if it could happen."

"Yes! Try saying once more that you dare. You want me to be mad, right?!"

"I dare to make you angry. All right, I'm going home. But tomorrow morning, I'll come back and pick you up to go to college together." Yuan said.

Rose exhaled, feeling a little relieved, at last the stubborn man relented as well.

"Yes, gohome. Be careful on the road, drive well, don't speed. Tomorrow morning I'll be waiting for you." Said Rose.

"Em, then let's say goodbye." Yuan Saying.

"Eh? Farewell greetings? You mean— is like the words see you tomorrow?" Rose asked who did not understand Yuan's intention.

Yuan shook his head. Then then, he stepped forward, bringing himself closer to Rose.

"Yuan?"

"Ssttt..."

Yuan was silent for a moment, staring at the bead of the lover's eyes which was now within a few centimeters of him.

"Yuan, you're too close." Rose Say.

Instead answer Rose's questions or stay away from Rose. Yuan, he peeked long at his lover's forehead, after feeling enough, he had only retreated a few steps from Rose.

"See you tomorrow." Said Yuan with a satisfied smile, then left from before Rose.

"Yes, I'll see you tomorrow." Rose muttered, she belatedly realized Yuan's departure from being too busy being fixated by Yuan's sudden action of kissing her forehead earlier.

Nana is seen descending from a taxi that stops in front of the gate of the Gavin family home. The girl went out for a while to buy some of her grandmother's needs.

"Miss change." The taxi driver screamed when Nana just wanted to enter the gate of her cousin's house.

"Take the change." Nana.

"That's it, thank you so much, miss." The taxi driver said, and then he took his taxi away from the front of Yuan's house.

Seeing that the taxi had left, Nana turned back to enter the yard of the Gavin family home. But, a voice returned making Nana turn her head and automatically stop her steps.

"Nana, you're Nana, right? Cousin Yuan." Ask a woman who just got out of a red car.

"Yes, I'm Nana, Yuan's cousin. You— "

"I'm Rue, do you remember me, at President Barack's birthday party that night." Said Rue.

"Ah, yes I remember. You're Barack's son, aren't you, his brother Feng?"

"Yes, you also know my sister as it turns out."

"Eh, it's not like that, you don't get me wrong, I know him not on purpose. She happened to be a major with a good friend of mine. So I accidentally knew him." Nana said with her awkward smile.

I know him too because he looks a lot attached to Rose constantly. And again, who does not know the true rival of my own cousin. — Inner Nana.

"Aah so yeah." Said Rue who was only able to reply Nana with a forced smile.

"Oh yeah, is Yuan in his house?" Rue asked, that was the real purpose Rue came to the Gavin family residence, which was to meet with Yuan.

"Yuan? He seems to have not been home since this morning. I don't know where you're going, maybe you're dating her boyfriend." Nana said that only just from talking. He intentionally said that because he wanted to make Rue feel annoyed and leave from before him. Although actually, without Nana knowing, if his words are completely true.

"Yuan have a lover?" Ask Rue.

"Don't know. I don't like to interfere in other people's affairs even if it's my own close cousin. But who knew that a man in neat and fragrant clothes, going from morning to afternoon like this had not returned. His best guess is that he's going on a date." Nana.

"I think you misunderstood your own cousin. Yuan doesn't look like a man who already has a lover." Rue.

Shit, this woman is persistent as well huh. Still can say like that even though I have said a sentence that should make him desperate. — Inner Nana.

"Oh, really? But even if he doesn't look like a guy with a girlfriend, that doesn't mean my cousin doesn't have a girl he likes, right?"

Right after Nana finished her sentence, a car that Nana believed to belong to Yuan seemed to be closing in on them.

"Why not just ask him?" Said Rue who also saw Yuan's car.
