The Love After Agreement

Chapter 37

Gryson and Filia get home at night. The fallen asleep Philia did not realize they had arrived.

"Honey, we've arrived" said Gryson who did not know that Filia had slept well. He thought his wife was still daydreaming.

"Darling, are you daydreaming again?" This time Gryson asked while touching his wife's shoulder.

"Darling?"

"When did you fall asleep? It is fitting that I call no reply," muttered Gryson when he saw his wife who had fallen asleep, because he did not have the heart to wake her up, he finally carried her into the room.

After she finished moving Filia, Gryson returned to the front room. There he tried to contact someone he had asked for help before.

"Hello, Gi. What about my wife's family there? Are they okay?" gryson asked his subordinate, Gideon.

Actually not only that, Gryson also asked his subordinates to investigate something in the family Filia, he was curious about the attitude of his wife's parents.

"All is safe under control, sir. Nothing suspicious is happening here" replied Gideon.

"Oh, okay. I'm gonna have to keep a close eye on any suspicious moves from them."

"Good, Sir. I understand."

After hearing the answer from his subordinates, Gryson was pensive again, still thinking about Filia's words while they were in the restaurant earlier.

FLASHBACK.

Gryson did not understand the answer that Philia said.

"About us. About the future of our household," answered Filia, looking closely at her husband's eyes.

"What do you mean, baby? Didn't we agree not to go through with the deal?" gryson asked, holding his wife's hand on the table.

"I don't know, Mom. Yeah, well, maybe you're right if it's just my feelings." Filia answered while pulling her hand from her husband's.

"Darling, what exactly do you want to tell me, hmmm? Don't worry me and worry about the ambiguous answer you're saying."

Filia took a deep breath, realizing that her answer made no sense and sounded far-fetched to her husband.

"I don't know what to say because right now I'm just following what my heart says, Mom."

"Alright, I can't force you to talk about something that you're difficult to say. But, I'm asking, you don't worry too much like you did, baby."

"Hmmm, okay. I'm sorry, Mas."

Having said that, neither Gryson nor Filia, they were both silent with their own thoughts. Before long, the waitresses came and brought their orders.

"Mas, I'm sorry if while being your wife, I paid less attention to you. I don't even know your favorite food at all" Filia said suddenly as they enjoyed the meal.

Gryson was silent before he replied, he increasingly did not understand why Filia behaved like that.

"I've never had a problem with that, baby. Whatever it is for me, I will eat it. So you don't have to worry about that. You can learn slowly."

Filia smiled when she heard her husband's answer, but not until there, the question still continued.

"If one day you find a better woman than me, will you leave me, Mom?"

Gryson kept his cutlery, and he stared fixedly at his wife's face before he asked, "What are you thinking, dear? I am not an easy person to turn to. So, I hope you don't have any bad thoughts getting there."

"I'm .. I'm just scared, Mas. After you make me feel comfortable, after you make me fall in love, then you leave me alone" Filia replied, looking down.

Now, he had realized his feelings. Gryson's treatment leaves her with the courage to try to open her heart and accept the marriage.

"I'm sure my answer is still the same as the first one" replied Gryson.

After just being silent, Filia now smiled with relief. She was sure that her husband would keep her going no matter what.

"Thank you, Mum. I'm sure you can hold on to that word."

There was no more talk between them. Gryson, who had finished his meal, only watched his wife.

"Is there something on my face, Mom?" philia asked as she looked at her husband who kept looking at her unblinkingly.

"You're beautiful."

Gryson's reply embarrassed Filia for a moment, he lowered his head and threw his gaze in the other direction.

"You've always been like that, Mom. It sucks." Filia grumbled as she squinted her eyes.

"Especially if it's sulking like that," said Gryson while poking the tip of the wife's nose.

Filia's face turned red as Gryson did just that. She who used to be just an innocent girl and never dated, now gets the attention of a man who has decreed her husband. It made her heart flowery, even her face was now flushed in shame.

"Stop flirting with me, Mom."

"Well, you don't seem to like me being seduced, do you?"

"Bu–it's not like that. Right now I'm still eating, what if I get choked up by your temptation?" it was Filia who actually felt happy because Gryson was teasing her.

Gryson was relieved to see Filia smiling again. After they finished eating, they continued their journey. This time Filia and Gryson spent time on the trip talking a lot about other things they would probably do in the future.

FLASHBACK OFF'S.

"I still do not understand what Philia thinks. I'm sure he's really worried about something, but what?" ask him to yourself.

After Greyson contacted Gideon, he decided to go into his room and rest with his wife.
