Happy Reading 🌹🌹


It is a holiday so that both Kenan mauoun Alice is only in the mansion, seen Ken seriously staring at the television screen in the room while Alice cleans the back garden.


"Alice, aren't you tired?" Ask Grandpa Wijaya who sat while watching the son-in-law planting flowers.


"No Cake." Alice replied slightly exclaiming because of their considerable distance.


Grandpa Wijaya just smiled, sip the ice water that has been provided by the maids.


Kenan who heard the voice of Alice and her Grandfather began to be disturbed, since the morning the sound of laughter was always heard by Kenan on the second floor.


"Currently, just planting those flowers." Omel Kenan squeezed his television remote in a rude manner.


Again, Ken heard the sound of laughter in the outside this time not only Alice and the grandfather seemed to the maids also br fun.


"Miss, do we need to buy additional flowers?" Bargain a maid to Alice.


"No need, this is more than enough. Next week you will buy white lily flowers to plant around this mansion." Alice replied with a soft laugh.


"It looks like we're working on all this for three months if every weekend Miss." The claws of one of the maids chimed in Alice's jokes.


"Yes and you'll be sunbathing willingly with me." Alice answered with a laugh.


"Does Miss like lily flowers?" Ask one of the maids.


"Hemm, yes. Especially white lily, in Ancient Greek mythology mentioned that lily flowers come from milk that was spilled by the Goddess Hera to the earth. It is said that the goddess Hera was breastfeeding her son, Hercules. Then he accidentally spilled his milk on the earth. Based on this mythology, the meaning of the lily flower is always identified with purity and purity like the love of a mother to her child. This flower is also considered as a symbol of beauty because Goddess Hera is one of the most beautiful goddesses in Greek mythology."


Alice told him at length to the maids who planted flowers with her, the maids and gardeners who listened to her amazed at hearing the names of the Gods - Goddesses of Greek mythology.


"Well, Miss Alice deserves to like it. The philosophy of the flower is so beautiful and great." The gardener told Alice.


"True, my mama really likes lilies so Alice likes them too." Alice answered with a smile.


There was a feeling of tightness in Alice's heart, a yearning for her Mama. Both of Alice's eyes were even hot but she quickly turned her face to avoid being caught if she wanted to cry.


Luckily the sunlight is quite scorching this haro, because who looks towards the sun surely his eyes will water.


However, Alice's eyesight was fixed on the figure of the man standing on the edge of the balcony of her room. She is Kenan, her husband.


The two stared at each other but quickly Alice decided her gaze, she did not want to feel too far the feeling that had once been given to a man.


"Ah, it's done. Thanks for the hard work." Alice said to the maids with a happy face.


Alice immediately walked towards the faucet that was not far from her, cleaning both hands and feet for playing ground for almost half a day.


A maid approached giving a small towel to Alice.


Alice immediately walked towards Grandpa Wijaya who had been waiting for her since earlier, "Grandfather did not go to rest?" Ask Alice.


"No, Grandpa wants to spend time with you this week." Reply Grandpa Wijaya.


Alice smiled, again a maid brought bread, fruit pots, and orange juice to Alice.


Ken, who saw the maid go back in, stopped him, "Make me coffee." Ken Say.


"Good sir." Answer the polite maid.


Ken stepped onto the table where Grandpa and Alice were sitting.


"You're coming, Ken." Grandpa Wijaya.


"Just bored." Answer Ken accordingly.


Maid serves coffee to Kenan and soon leaves again.


"How does the office work, is it very much?" Ask Grandpa Wijaya.


"No." Answer both compact.


"Well, when are you going on your honeymoon?" Ask Kake Wijaya.


Ken just silently looked at Alice's response, "Alice still wants to be alone with Kenan alone, Kek." Answer Alice slowly.


"You don't want to have children yet, Alice?" Ask Grandpa Wijaya again.


Alice was silent for a moment, "Of course she wanted Kek, but not now. Now Alice is just still enjoying Alice's work and busy life as Kenan's wife." Alice clearly smiled.


"Grandfather almost forgot if not long ago you just graduated, of course like other young people enjoy the sweet acid of the world of work." Grandpa Wijaya's remarks confirmed.


"Yes right Cake, Alice hope Grandpa is patient." Alice said slowly.


Whether Grandpa Wijaya should be patient, maybe forever Alice will not give offspring to the Wijaya family.


While Ken who heard Alice's words, subtly refused to get pregnant unconsciously clenched his hands under the table.


His gaze drew toward Alice who was smiling, chatting with the grandfather. Is it true that Alice is not willing to rely on her child, really this hurts Kenan's self-esteem.


Ken sighed harshly, sipping his coffee slowly to calm his mind and heart. However, Alice's subtle rejection continued to ring in her ears.
