Your Officemate's

66. Go To The Beach

"Why hasn't Daddy ever kissed Mommy?" Suddenly Abbey asked as she stared intently at Hans.

Manda does not want to lose, his hands are crossed.

"You don't want Daddy to make Mommy sad and leave the house."

Erika smiled awkwardly. Hans was no less clumsy. He did not want to make Erika feel forced, but on the other hand the eyes of the children were judging her.

"Darling, Mommy won't be leaving anymore." Erika stroked Manda's hair trying to calm her down.

Manda's tears melted. Erika also glanced at Hans who just silently looked at her.

Hans gave a code like asking permission, then he approached and slightly lowered his head to kiss Erika on the cheek. Although reluctant, Erika stiffly gave her cheek to Hans. Then Hans wrapped his hands around Erika's waist and also kissed Erika's head.

Erika's head was stuck to Hans' chest, Erika felt Hans' heart beating so tight. But Erika did not want to linger - for a long time, she immediately retreated and turned to Manda.

"Now Manda see for himself? Everything is fine." said Erika. Manda nodded slowly.

"Come on, girls." Hans.

"Bye Mommy's.... " The two girls finally said goodbye and went to school.

As soon as Hans and the children left, Erika immediately took over Aaron, bathed and fed him. Then Erika hands Aaron back to Sister. Just now Erika intends to look at her online work, heard the sound of the door closing loudly and followed by the sound of footsteps that run quickly.

Erika saw Hans walking quickly into the room and walking towards her in a hurry - a gasp and an inexplicable look in the eye.

"Is there anything left behind?" Erika asked in her heart.

Hans stopped the steps right in front of Erika. For a moment his eyes looked at Erika, then quickly pulled Erika's body and hugged her tightly. Erika felt Hans kissing her cheeks, neck and down to her shoulders. And the water soaked Erika's shoulders. His body shook and his sobbing sounded. Erika felt full.

Late in the afternoon as Erika was relaxing with the children, Hans appeared in casual clothes.

"Let's get ready - ready, Moms. We're going somewhere."

Manda and Abbey stole each other's eyes and smiled - a smile. Erika pura - pura did not see and hear anything, she busied herself with Aaron.

"Abbey, Manda, can you take care of Aaron today with Sister? Mommy and Daddy there's gonna be a minute." Hans asked his children.

"Mommy's with Daddy going out?" Abbey's eyes were glowing. Manda cheered happily. Hans smiled and winked one eye, the children were so easy to work with.

"How's Mommy? Later kesorean." Hans looked at Erika with a pleading gaze. While the faces of Abbey and Manda looked at Erika with the gaze of "Come on, Moms".

Finally, Erika stood up and headed straight for her room. Before long she came down with blue jeans and a white tshirt. His appearance was also casual adjusting to Hans.

"You didn't ask where we were going?" Hans's fishing rod when Erika just shut up and didn't say a word in the car.

Since the "incident" Erika became much more quiet, especially when alone with Hans. He just talks and laughs with his kids.

"Huh?" Erika stuttered a little.

"I want to ask you out, Moms. It's been a long time since we've been both gone. Is there a place you want to visit?" Hans explained it without being asked.

Hans was silent and pretended to think about his goal, because from the beginning Hans had prepared everything. In any case, he knew Erika would not be that easy to melt.

"How about the beach?" Hans offers Erika's favorite place. And answered with a nod.

Without saying much Hans drove his vehicle through the deserted streets of his residential area towards the beach.

Along the way they were the same - equally silent. Soluble in each other's minds.

The journey did not take long, they had arrived at a white sandy beach. The blue sea water appears to stretch widely throughout the eye. Smooth waves sound unpretentious with the wind.

Hans looked at Erika's face from the side. A face that looked gentle and patient, made anyone calm when looking at it. Then Hans' hand stretched out to hold Erika's fingers, unheeded Erika who looked surprised and seemed to refuse.

Hans will not waste the opportunity today to regain Erika's heart. At least today, Hans wants to erode the awkwardness that was created between them. Let the comfort re-emerge in Erika's heart.

Hans pulls Erika's hand and forces her into the water. Erika who initially refused finally would not want to join the water play with Hans. Unknowingly, Erika dissolves in excitement like a child discovering a new game. His laughter was so loose as to occasionally squeal whenever the waves hit his body.

I don't think the sun is almost drowning. Erika sat on the wet sand next to Hans. With her partially wet clothes, Erika looked at the sky that was starting to reddish with a blotchy smile

Hans looked at the smile with a heart full of joy. A smile that was lost because of her.

Hans reached out his hand to get rid of the hair covering part of Erika's face. Slowly grabbing Erika's head to get closer to her. Hans's hand framed Erika's cheek. Finally Erika felt Hans lips land softly on her feet. Feels soft and full of feeling.

"I'm sorry I hurt you again and again." Hans let go of his hand and looked up, holding back the water that was ready to drip from his eyes.

"I'm sorry" Hans said again.

"I know." replied Erika.

Erika and Hans arrive home after dinner. They immediately cleaned themselves because they had eaten dinner on the way home.

Hans goes to Aaron's room to see the hero, while Erika goes to Abbey and Manda's room to talk and say good night.

"Waaah... Mommy cheated. Why go to the beach?" manda protests when she finds out her parents are going to the beach.

"So Mommy and Daddy are better now?" Abbey interrupted with a seductive smile.

Unable to answer, Erika pretended to be angry.

"Mommy better go back to the room. It's night and time for bed." And responded with crisp laughter Abbey and Manda.

When Erika arrived at the room, Hans seemed to be lying down while reading a book on the sofa.

"The kids are asleep?" Hans glanced over while asking the question he always asked every night.

Erika nodded and threw her body onto the bed.

Drrr....

A notification came in. While still lying down Erika grabbed the phone on the nightstand. The pile of messages in the chat room seemed waiting to be read because Erika did not touch her phone all day.

Erika's eyes stopped at a name she never wanted to call again. Instantly the look on her face changed, and Erika immediately sat down like she was electrocuted.

"What's up Moms?" hans asked when he saw Erika's movements that were so sudden.

See you in the next episode....
