THE MAFIA!

Chapter 124

Which girl's heart is not sad, when she saw the man she loved since a dozen years ago, turned out to have been with another girl? Happy with another heart? Until they have a pair of twins. They must be very similar to both, right?

When all that happened, he was just lying weakly on the patient's bed. With a flat breath, without being able to move even just to open the eyelids.

"Hi, Selena..."

Michael Xavier, the Mafia, finally made a sound, greeting the girl who was still lying on the patient's bed. Although it sounded flat, but the voice was quite missed by the girl he greeted.

Not unaware of Selena's gaze since she entered, but Michael tries to stay calm and realistic.

If he is a husband, he is obliged to keep his wife's feelings by ignoring the deep gaze of any woman. Selena is no exception, the girl he considers to be his own sister.

Intentionally embracing Chania's waist more tightly and intimately, as if to explain that Chania is his woman, the wife he loves. He said he already has a legitimate partner.

Not intentionally to hurt Selena, but..is not frank from the beginning much better, than giving false hope? which in the end causes more pain.

"Hey... Brother Michael.." Selena retorted as much as possible to lift both corners of her lips. But alas, along with that, the circle of tears again glided freely. He quickly wiped it off with one hand.

The Chania reflex moves to grab the tissue, to help rub Selena's cheek.

"I can do it myself!" selena's chirps over Chania's hand which is 2 cm longer will reach Selena's smooth cheek.

"Oh.." Chania stunned. He did not expect his hand to be patted with a slight bang.

All of that certainly did not escape the Mafia's observation. Michael again pulled his wife's waist back and returned to level with her.

Chania retreated slowly with mixed feelings. He was stunned, thinking why did Selena behave like that on the first day they met? Even for the first time they met.

"All is well, Baby.." whispered Michael softly, and then deliberately landed a brief kiss on the cheek.

Chania looked at her husband. Smiling thinly. Trying to believe what her husband said.

"Selena, she's Chania Arlington, Michael's wife. Our half-brother." Obviously Oliver is as gentle as possible. "And her, Sania Arlington." Pointing at Sania who was stunned to see Chania's hand on the tepis. "Then it was Reno, Sania's future husband." pointed at Reno who was standing behind Sania.

"Hi, Selen!" greet Reno friendly.

Selena's eyes followed her brother's direction. See two pairs that look mutually bucin. But his heart just came back.

"Congratulations, all of you have found true love." said Selena. "While I am." he continued staring softly at a pair of Michael's eyes that looked flat and almost cold. "I'm precisely.losing..."

"Selena.." said Deborah standing from her seat and approaching her second daughter. "What are you saying! you just realized, how could you possibly lose love!" continued Deborah stared fixed Selena who actually looked coldly at the Mama.

Deborah glanced coldly at Michael. He knew he couldn't fight the man. But he also refused to look completely defeated. Although in front of the princess, he had promised to end the war with Michael to his descendants later.

But the little hearts of men no one knows. Ego, prestige, and stubbornness are sometimes more dominating than self-consciousness.

Deborah sighed, "You'll never lose Mommy's love, Selena.."

"So do I, Selena.." said Oliver next to the mother.

Selena shook her head slowly, a sign not of love that she meant.

The understanding Michael, tried to get a little closer after kissing the top of his wife's head.

Michael's slow steps distract Selena. Staring at the dashing man he had idolized since childhood. He wanted to jump out of the patient's bed and hug the body that looked so proportional.

"Selena.." call Michael standing right next to the bed, in front of his wife. "You know? When the doctor first diagnosed your illness I felt a pain I had never felt for someone I thought was my own sister."

Michael's words made everyone speechless. Michael touched Selena's right hand and squeezed her gently.

"Regardless of various agreements - difficult agreements, I remain steadfast to sincerely help you. Finding the right donor for you." Glanced at Deborah, who was none other than her stepmother-in-law.

"Even though God has another way. Destiny shows everything. Who are you, who is Chania. The girl who was considered the right donor for you."

"But it turns out that it was all God gave me to be a better human being. People who have more heart and love."

Selena shook her head, "I'd better never open my eyes again, if the reality of my life should be like this, sister!" lirih Selena shed tears. He squeezed the burly fingers that were still holding his hand.

"Never think that way, Selena.. We'll go back to how we were when we were kids. I'll protect you, too, Oliver, just as I'll protect Sania. Especially now that you're all my brother-in-law."

"NO!" firmly Selena looked coldly at Michael. As if I don't accept that explanation.

From here, Chania began to understand. What does the loss of love mean by Selena, 3-year-old sister-in-law on it.

Chania looked up at her husband. He was afraid that the husband would falter in this situation.

Sania, who was also beginning to understand the meaning of the conversation, grabbed onto the shoulders of her twin sister. He knows how Chania feels.

"Selena... You know, I can never love those I consider brothers. I've loved you as a little sister since we were kids. You know that clearly."

Screaming with a spit, "No! I don't want to be your brother!" exclaim Selena. A pair of flattened eyes were already wet with tears. Smooth cheeks are already flooded with drops.

"Selena! stop that!" exclaim Oliver. "Don't be selfish, Selena! we were brothers since we were kids, weren't we!"

"Shut up, brother!"

"Selena!" this time Deborah finally broke up. He began to feel uncomfortable seeing his daughter who seemed to be begging for love in front of his half-brothers. There is a self-respect that he must take care of.

"Mom! didn't Mommy always support me?" selena asked still with a sob. "Why does Mommy now look weak? Mommy's starting to be kind to those who snatch our love!"

"Selena!" henta Deborah was a little restrained. He could not possibly scold the princess who had just woken up from her long slumber.

"Go all of you! I want to be alone!" selena stared blankly at the front. He even pulled out his hand that Michael held. He did not want it if only the hand held by the man.

"Selena.." Chania tried to take heart.

"Particularly you!" chirp Selena before Chania even said.

Sighing, "I hope you can understand all this, Selena. I love you, my sister..."

"YAHAHHH!!" Shouted Selena closing her ears while closing her eyes. Shake your head to the right and to the left quickly. He felt uneasy when the name of his sister slid from the thin lips of the Mafia.

Not wanting Selena getting frustrated, Michael rubbed the top of Selena's head gently. Then take his wife Sania and Reno out.

Chania looked question mark at her husband. But Michael's eye movements, making Chania inevitably follow the direction of her husband.

***

Sitting in the limousine, Michael's entourage decides to return home. They sit side by side with their partners. And face each other.

"Did Selena love you, Mich!" asked Reno without a stale base.

Michael clasped his wife's fingers tighter. He didn't want the conversation they were going to have right now, to scratch his wife's heart.

"Tell me, Honey.." said Chania, who was also no less curious. "Because all I know is that Oliver was after you."

Michael looked at his wife. Gaze upon a pair of wry eyes that always managed to make him open all the secrets of his life.

"Ultimately.on one night.. Which somehow he can do things that I don't think it's time for a kid his age to do..."

Michael fell silent. Staring at the sky - sky limousine. Recollecting events that he will never forget.

"meaning?" sahut Sania who finally came curious.
