...It turns out that I'm not just competing with the memories of you in his memory....
...Because I just realized that he's bringing 'yourself' into himself, like you're becoming one....

Today is their last day in Bali and in a few hours they are back. Still using Winston's private planes it's just that they follow the same schedule from the airport.
Yesterday after helping the little girl, they decided to return to the villa. Both seemed fine but the feeling of both was the opposite.
Agatha who since her meeting with the young girl brought her feelings back to remember Mikael. Their first meeting, a small note written in a hurry, and also their way of communication. Because in the madam Anna or Senna Rod house, the speaker can directly use sign language with him without writing notes like Mikael first. And the feeling of longing again slipped presenting a warm figure who always presented a smile to him.
While Christ was the first to see his wife use sign language eloquently inevitably made him rethink the figure of speechless youth attached to his memory. There was as much pain in his heart as if the figure appeared and came back to haunt him.
"You sick?" agatha asked suddenly as they waited for the plane to take off.
"Hm, no really. What's up Sunshine?"
"You are quieter than usual" replied Agatha, yes although she did not care what the man did yet Agatha still noticed how many days this man was always talking a lot and was busy asking her to do this. But since yesterday it has been suddenly quieter.
"You're worried about me?" christ asked gently and smiled seductively. His eyes were now focused on the beautiful woman sitting before him. The woman who became his world.
"Yes, it's like you just saw a ghost. Pale, silent and much daydreaming since yesterday."
"Seeing a ghost huh. I just saw an angel in front of me."
Agatha rotated her eyes puffing at Christ's words.
"It seems like I misjudged, just shut up and rest" said Agatha who then busied herself with a cell phone in her hand.
Christ smiled then moved to sit next to Agatha, and rested his head on the wife's shoulder.
"Just rest here, okay?" his whisper then drowned his face in the recess of Agatha's neck, making her owner speechless and slightly tilting her head to make room.
Christ knew his worry on the memories of the past would only put him in a bad mood and it put some distance between him and Agatha. He should not have thought of such a thing since his wife would only belong to him.

The beautiful woman stretched her legs into the spacious courtyard filled with greenery. This was the first time she had returned to her father's house after marriage.
He misses his father.
"You don't care about me anymore after marriage?" that was the sentence that the father made when Agatha came.
"Why do you say that, you don't miss me?" the answer was to embrace his father. The father's condition was much better than before and it made him feel relieved.
"Of course, honey. But where's dad's son-in-law? He didn't come here?" mr. Anderson asked after realizing that Christ had not come with his daughter.
"Oh, he went straight to the office because he said there was an urgent matter. Later come here."
Mr. Anderson nodded in understanding, "How is your relationship, is he good to you?"
"Sure as father and Gabriel said before. You want me to marry him because he's nice, right?"
"Agatha, don't talk like that. Sounds like your marriage because of coercion. I'm sad to hear it."
Hearing the father's words and also the look of the eyes that seemed to recede made Agatha feel uncomfortable until a smile was forced to appear on her lips.
"He's good to me, Dad, don't worry. I just need to focus on restoring my health. Or I'll be mad."
The old man chuckled at the threat from his daughter, instead of not understanding or not knowing. The sudden approval of his daughter to marry after dozens of times of refusal made the father understand one thing that half of this marriage is not true. Either forced or a deal but he doesn't want to question it, all he wants is his daughter's happiness.
"Whatever happens, I wish you were always happy. So do not ever hesitate to accept the happiness that comes Son, because this father's daughter is very entitled to be happy," his big hand stroking the top of Agatha's head slowly made the owner silent and closed his eyes.
Really Agatha knew how much her father loved her and she was just afraid of not being able to reciprocate properly. At least this marriage is one way to make her father happy.
And outside the door of the room that was slightly open, Gabriel stood tightly hiding his body. The look in his eyes was softly laughed at despite the faint line of smile on his lips.
"I also want you to always be happy, my sister. Forgive your brother, "he whispered so slowly.
.......

.......
Mr. Anderson seemed very happy because his children were fully gathered and the youngest Zander who was on vacation also came. That happiness felt complete again after Christ actually came along.
"It looks like uncle is in a very happy mood" said Joshua, who was sitting on the right side of Mr. Anderson.
"Of course, son, since all the children of uncle are here and there is also you," replied Mr. Anderson still with a happy look on his face.
"Why didn't you tell me that Zander came home?" this time Agatha asked and found an upset response from her sister.
"You don't care about my whereabouts, Agatha. You newlyweds," said Zander grumbled but was reprimanded by Gabriel's gaze.
"You've been in your room all day and even hearing me come doesn't get you out of there. You didn't come home on my wedding day either" Agatha said, not to lose.
"The time is not right and I don't want to repeat for leaving my exam."
"You're really ya—"
"Agatha already, don't argue with Zander or we don't have a quiet dinner because of you, '" said Gabriel, who immediately got a look of protest from his brothers.
"I hope you'll get used to Christ, they were so noisy together." Joshua whispered as he realized Christ was just silently staring at the commotion before him.
"Yes, yes."
Joshua smiled slightly to find Christ's answer, to be honest now much he wanted to say about what he knew about this man yesterday just can not be spoken. Maybe not now.
"It's the first time I've met my sister-in-law, it turns out handsome huh," Zander choked suddenly and made Christ who was drinking choke.
"You okay?" Agatha reflexively patted Christ's back.
"Zander don't talk carelessly" he said.
"What's? I'm just telling you the fact, isn't he really handsome?" his protest felt the reaction of the brother was strange.
"Don't say such praising things because it will only make her head bigger," Agatha replied with a flat expression but made everyone else glare at her.
"Agatha—"
"Agatha..."
"Agatha!"
The three adult men who were there simultaneously reprimanded him while Zander was surprised by the attitude of his elder brother. Only Christ who looked at Agatha tried to hold back a smile.
"What's? He praises himself every day, no need for additions from others," he explained, which actually makes the three want to pull Agatha out because for them the woman's speech is not polite.
But seeing Christ actually laughing while gently rubbing Agatha's head made everyone who was there more astonished.
"Christ, are you okay?" ask Gabriel.
"Don't have to laugh to understand his bad attitude, Christ," this time Joshua said.
"I'm fine, really you don't need to worry because Agatha has said that to me so many times, so I'm not surprised" she replied calmly and still left a smile.
"Son, are you sure you can face my daughter?" this time Mr. Anderson asked worriedly. "I'll support you fully if you're having a hard time."
"It's okay dad, I can deal with whatever it is about Agatha. You don't have to worry, "he replied reassuring the father-in-law.
Christ did try to understand the nature of his wife some time yesterday. Sweet things is not the love language of Agatha. It became his part and duty to give sweet and loving things to his wife.
Seeing the strange couple before him, inevitably made Joshua smile. The look of love from Christ's eyes can not lie right, and his best friend was also although it can not be said to fall in love but seems to have been able to accept the existence of Christ.
Joshua shook his head slowly to get rid of the bad thoughts that had previously settled in his head. It seemed that he did not need to worry about Leon's earlier remark.
"What's wrong?" asked Gabriel who was sitting beside him in wonder.
"No Gab, I'm glad to see their strangeness" he replied with a happy look at the sweet-cold couple. Gabriel followed the direction of his eyes and nodded in agreement.
"I'm happy too. After a long hard time, right?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Basic couple freak. I hope my niece will not inherit the strangeness of her parents" Zander choked almost everyone who was eating almost choked.
"Zanders!" yelled at them all at the same time and made the youngest laugh wide.
