Inside Ana's office, Yuan seemed to be sitting on the sofa, as well as Rose who was also sitting next to her. While Ana, the owner of the room, he sat in front of the two young couples.
Ana looked at Yuan, waiting for her son to start talking.
“Yuan, let's start the explanation, you said you wanted to explain it here. But why are you just quiet now?” ask Ana.
Yuan sighed in anger, confused as to where to begin to explain it.
Rose, who saw the confusion of her lover, finally ventured, trying to represent Yuan to explain it to Ana, the lover's mother.
“Sorry aunt Ana, if possible, let me explain.” Rose said.
Ana now turned to look at Rose who directly lowered her head when the middle-aged woman's gaze was fixed on her.
Seeing Rose's attitude, Ana sighed.
She over-exerted herself, did I put too much pressure on them huh? — Inner Ana.
“Do not force yourself, let the man beside you explain. You just sit quietly, don't feel depressed like that. Do I look like an evil mother-in-law? I am not trying to punish you, so relax.” Ana said.
“Yes, yes aunty, sorry to make aunty think like that. Now, I will act more relaxed and not feel depressed.” Rose said in a nervous tone.
Yuan turned to the girl, saw the look on Rose's face that looked cold sweat, making Yuan sigh again.
He really did not feel good about Rose. The girl, even though she said that she did not feel depressed and would relax less. But in fact, Rose's body has given the answer, he is actually very afraid and also worried.
“Mom, can't let me be the one in this room, mom just tell him to come out, let me explain it to mom myself. There is no need to carry her.” Yuan said as he moved his hand, grabbed Rose's hand, then gently grasped it, giving a warm and comfortable feeling to Rose, made the girl slowly feel calm with the situation going on.
“Do not worry.” Whisper Yuan with a faint smile.
Rose responded with a small nod.
“Iya.” murmur Rose.
Ana who was in front of them could only hold back a smile with a astonished heart, she did not expect that Ray's nature had actually decreased in the child. It is very romantic and makes the heart of the woman in love feel the warmth that is so comfortable.
“Ehem, are you guys intending to show off the affection in front of me? Yuan, you think of your mommy as an inanimate object huh?” asked Ana who was accompanied by her loud deheman.
Ana's attitude without her knowing it has made Rose shrink her guts even more.
Amazingly, the feeling from Rose seemed to be directly channeled into Yuan. The man who was still holding Rose's hand was as if he could feel that the current Rose was really scared as well as worried.
Yuan was even able to see Rose who seemed to flinch in shock when Ana suddenly cleared her throat loudly towards them.
Although Ana's true intentions only want to joke, but who knows if Rose misinterpreted it.
Rose thought, the mother of Yuan was angry to see herself and Yuan making out.
“Mom, you made him even more frightened.” Yuan complained.
“Ah? Did ya? Jesus, Rose. Mommy's just kidding, don't be scared like that. Well Yuan, you better quickly explain about your relationship to mom. So after that, you can take her home.” said Ana who felt bad with the young girl in front of her.
“Mom, why should mommy ask us for an explanation? Mommy herself had seen it clearly. Look at us carefully. Without us explaining it or telling mommy about our relationship, mom would already know the answer, right?” said Yuan.
Hearing Yuan say that to her own mother, Rose felt bad for Ana. Her lover sounded like a child defending another woman in front of the woman who had given birth to him.
For Rose, who had lost her mother, she felt that it was an act of no praise.
“Yuan, don't argue with your parents, let alone your mother. As long as you still have them by your side, just obey their words. Your mother also just wants us to tell her about our relationship, instead of wanting to separate us.” said Rose who tried not to look scared anymore.
“Sound that's Yuan? Listen to your lover's words. He's right, absolutely right. Ah my goodness, my son-in-law seems very wise huh, makes me impatient to want to pet grandchildren from you guys.” Ana said with their smile.
“Mom, what is mommy trying to say? Don't be like that mom, we still have to finish education.” lamented Yuan.
“Ah Yes. But just so you know, out there, there are a lot of people who go to college but are married. Think of it as diving while drinking water, taking education while enjoying a harmonious household. Ah, what fun.” Ana said.
“Mommy~”
“Yes, well, mommy won't discuss that anymore. But now, let's quickly explain to mommy, don't waste your own time" Ana said.
Yuan exhaled his heavy breath, then glanced at his watch, it seemed that time had moved quickly, the day had started late in the evening, not really felt, really, he had been sitting in his mother's room for about two hours.
It was now four o'clock over twenty-five minutes, which means, chances are, soon his father— Ray would be coming to pick up his mother. So, as much as possible, Yuan had to immediately explain what his mother wanted to hear.
If his father comes, while Rose is still there, sitting next to him. Yuan was afraid, afraid and worried, because his father actually had different tastes and desires from his mother.
“Well, I'll start explaining it to mommy. So, me and Rose, we know each other because of Nana. Because Rose is Nana's best friend. I helped him in that time,—”
“You helped him what? Not usually you want to help people you don't know.” said Ana, interrupting her son's words.
“Mom, I'm explaining it to you, please don't cut Yuan's talk. Mom herself once said that cutting people's conversation was disrespectful. But now, mom is eating the words mom.” said Yuan.
“Ah alright, mom is wrong. Now you can continue the story, mom promise, mom will not cut your conversation.” said Ana.
Yuan sighed, then began to resume his story. He started telling stories about himself who had run away from home, then stayed at Rose's house for a few days.
The man continued to go on with the story to the point where he realized his feelings for Rose, and finally expressed his feelings with a little courage and a lot of prestige.

Alex is seen sitting on the sofa in his room. He was intending to go home from the office to pick up Nana.
But suddenly, his older brother Ray comes into his room, making Alex inevitably have to undo his intentions and start talking about something serious with his older brother.
“I've heard everything from Chenli's secretary. So, how are you going to act now?” ray said, starting the conversation.
Alex sighed for a moment, his mind had been focused on the matter ever since. To be honest, he himself felt he was not ready to make a decision let alone take action. In that case, Alex should not be rash.
“I think, we need further investigation before deciding what we should do. Brother, after all, vice president Yohan, he was cold in front of me but very warm in front of you. He was— even though he looks like a bad person when talking to me, but actually his heart is good. Moreover, he is a man who has raised my son, I— ”
“You're trying to mix company issues with your personal problems?” ray asked, deliberately cutting Alex's words.
“Kak, not like that, me, I just— ”
“Alex, I know what you mean. I myself if you are in your position will also be confused to make a decision. But in the business world, everything is a mystery. Sometimes a friend can be an opponent and an opponent can be an ally. You have to understand that.” said Ray.
“Son, are you suspicious of vice president Yohan and more confident in the words of that man named Hans? Ray, we don't know a liar like Hans, whether he's telling the truth or not. It could be that he just spoke or deliberately mentioned the name of vice president Yohan to slowly eliminate the solid foundation of Tnp group.” said Alex.
Ray sighed, he who had been leaning on the sofa, this time sitting straight looking at Alex, his father's other brother.
“Did I ever say that I believed in a man named Hans and suspected Yohan who was my confidant for several decades? I'm just saying that in the business world it's full of mysteries. People we consider friends can be enemies, and vice versa. Don't you understand what I mean?” said Ray.
