THE MAFIA!
Chapter 44's
That morning, the luxurious and majestic room was deserted. Because a couple who inhabit it is soaking in the bathtub, with warm water and white foam that surrounds their innocent body.
Michael's injured hand, lifted to the edge of the bathtub, so as not to be exposed to water.
Chania is now behind Michael to rub her husband's back. So gently Chania rubbed her back with that dragon tattoo.
On some sides of the back, there were many old scars. I don't know when Michael Xavier got those wounds.
This time Chania's beautiful face was filled with fog, every time she saw the scar, then saw Michael's bandage then her heart would be sliced right then and there. But he must be sure all is well, as Michael said.
Michael twisted his body without Chania's orders. Because he felt the rubbing of his wife's hand was weakened. Michael sighed softly, looking at Chania's face that was not as cheerful as usual.
Michael touched Chania's chin gently, "Why?" ask Michael lirih.
Unable to answer, Chania looked down. Instantly, the tears that he had been holding back since then returned to pour profusely.
Michael frowned in wonder. "Why crying?" michael asked in such a gentle tone, wiping away the tears that fell on his cheeks.
Chania shook her head slowly. Michael pulled Chania's body, so that he could lean on the bathub and then lift Chania's waist with only his left hand. Until the girl sits on Michael's lap.
"I don't want to see.see you are injured again.." said Chania in the middle of a whim.
Michael narrowed his eyes, staring in wonder at his wife.
"It's not my first wound, but usually you never cry." Michael rubbed Chania's tears with his right hand, which had a bandage on his arm.
Soon Chania catches Michael's hand. He did not want that hand to wipe away his tears. He noticed the tears coming down, indicating his weak heart.
Chania shook her head again, then kissed Michael's bandage. There were a few tears falling there.
"Stop crying, Baby. I'm fine." whispered Michael, pulling the head of the wife to stop doing what she thought was ridiculous.
But it turns out that Baby's call again disturbed Chania's ears. He was so happy with the call. Her tears stopped in the next second.
Chania rests her head on Michael's chest and shoulders. Wrapped his hands around the husband's neck. No matter the foam that splashes.
"Honey?" call Chania lirih.
"Hm?"
"If one day it turns out you love me, will you say it?" chania asked in the same position.
Michael took a deep breath, then threw it away, before answering Chania's question which he thought was very heavy.
"Sure!" answer later. "I'll say it my own way, because I don't know what kind of romantic attitude a woman wants. And I've never expressed love before."
Chania smiles. Whether or not it will happen, he will continue to wait. Until the time is up, less than nine months away.
He will accept any way Michael can declare his love. He understood Michael was a stiff man before. Let alone declaring love, apologizing and thanking alone may never have spoken from his lips.
***
Although not too much sleep last night, did not make the man fail to go to the office. He went to the office, even though it was a little late.
Chania, who was somehow so spoiled for Michael, continued to stick along the way. He refused to be away from the body of his husband.
"Who were you at war with last night?" ask Chania.
"The enemy of that time!" answer's flat.
"The one who attacked when we came home overtime that time?"
"Yes"
"Well! he's still after you?"
"Actually they're not after me, they're after me..." Michael hesitated to continue his sentence. He looked in a pair of beads in the wife's eyes.
"Who?"
And that innocent Chania base, she just believed in Michael's answer.
***
"Jack, I want Chania to stay on the lookout, don't leave her alone let alone in a quiet place!" tell Michael to Jack in his study.
"Master need not worry, I've prepared someone to watch over Madam, Mister."
"Hm, go!"
"Good, Master!"
Jack exits Michael's study, leaving Michael pensive. There are so many things that the only son of Frederick Sebastian has to think about.
Chania, the Mama, the Papa, the company, the black world, and probably more.
"All must be safe!" muttered later.
Michael stared intently at the glass window that showed the beauty of Rome, Italy.
"And Deborah, you petty, cunning woman, maybe today you can do whatever you want. But I'll get the right payback for all this from me. Wait for that day to come!"
Michael glanced at the bookshelf, where behind the shelf was a door. The door of the room he always entered with Chania. The other is his wife.
' Why would I want to protect you? does that mean I want to have you? and is that love? '
Inner Michael.
' Every time you go home to fight, it's your face that always makes me want to go home before you wake up. If that includes love, why does my tongue always have a hard time telling me.... '
Even in my heart, Michael had a hard time expressing love.
"Stupid!" Michael hit his desk.

🍄 Two days later . . .
Michael and his team, including Chania, travel to Paris, France. Suddenly, he replaced the Papa, Frederick Sebastian.
Stay at one of the hotels, where Sebastian Company has a stake in the hotel.
Occupying the presidential suite room, Michael and Chania appear engrossed in a king-size bed, with clean white bedding and bad covers, also facing the Eiffel Tower.
They just did a special opening ceremony to welcome their first day in Paris, namely making love.
"An hour, the meeting starts, Honey!" said Chania who is still in Michael's arms.
"Hm..." Michael nodded. "You're here, there's no need to come. I'll put Dimitri and the other two bodyguards in front of the door to take care of you."
"A lot of it"
"That's a little bit, Baby." Michael pinched Chania's nose.
Makes Chania feel loved by Michael. Chania believes Michael is starting to fall for her. It's just that the stiff guy has trouble expressing love.
"Well, we'd better take a shower!" chania said she did not want her husband to be late meeting with someone, who supposedly said she was an important client from her black world.
"Yeah" replied Michael getting out of bed following Chania.
