Another Chance
Chapter 17

Zoya's eyes are round. What did Nio say? Want to sleep in her room? This is totally impossible.

"Zoya's." Nio waved his hand in front of the wife's face. Zoya wakes up and starts to blink again.

"M-Mas want to sleep here? What's with Mas Nio's room?" zoya asked raising an eyebrow.

Nio himself looks wrong behavior by rubbing the nape of his neck. "I miss Rasya. You know, since he was born, we've always slept together. So, after she moved into your room, I had a hard time sleeping," Nio said with a clumsy smile.

"Why not say daritadi, Mas, before Rasya sleeps. Would you like to take her to Mas's room?" ask Zoya.

"Can't I sleep here?" asked Nio with his sad face.

"Bu-not that, just afraid that the mattress does not fit," Zoya replied misbehaving.

How can they sleep in one bed. When they got married, they never slept in the same bed.

Nio also sighed softly with his lesion face. "Yes already, it's okay. I know you must be uncomfortable with me. I'm going back to my room." Nio turned around to move his legs, but suddenly his hand was held back by Zoya until the man looked at her.

"If you want to sleep here it's okay, Mom. This is Mas' house. I hope the bed will fit. Come on in" said Zoya staring at her husband in a misbehavior.

"Are you serious? Can I sleep here?" tanya Nio sparkled. "Kkmm." The man cleared his throat after realizing he was doing something stupid. She was afraid that Zoya thought she wanted to sleep there to do something weird.

"Come in, Mom." Zoya widens the door and Nio enters, stepping onto the bed. The child slept on his back with both hands on his head so soundly. "Mas sleeps to Rasya's right, yeah. I'm used to sleeping sideways to the right because" said the beautiful woman up to the bed.

"Thank you, you've allowed me to sleep here" said Nio, who was on the bed.

Now, the two are in a bed with Rasya among them. Although limited by the child, still the heart of both pounding incoherently.

'Silence, Zoya. Your husband's. You even sleep with that son of a bitch a lot. Calm down, Mas Nio's after all will not be anything, ' Inner Zoya.

"Wouldn't the lights be turned off?" ask Nio.

"Ah, that. Sorry, Mas. I'm a dark phobia. So, I can't turn off the lights. Is it disturbed?" zoya looked at her husband.

"You're a dark phobia?" ask Nio in disbelief.

"Yes, Mas" replied Zoya who was now beginning to yawn and slowly closed her eyes.

"Since when?" lirih Nio was still in shock.

"Since childhood, Mama. I used to be locked up in a dark place, so .. I .. have a dark phobia ...." Without Zoya realizing it, she talks her biggest secret. After that he fell asleep so peacefully, leaving Nio wondering in his heart.

Nio who had been staring at Zoya was also saddened by what he just knew. Caged in a dark place? Who did it? Isn't Zoya Lavani's favorite child? There's no way they're treating Princess Mahkota badly, right?

Zoya is not a woman. He is the only son of a family of real estate entrepreneurs. His father — Samudera Lavani is the owner of the best real estate company and his mother— Ken Ayu Maharani is a well-known designer. Although both of her parents are now dead, she remains the Crown Princess of the Lavani family. So, how could he be locked up in a dark place to have trauma?

Nio smilingly looked at his sleeping wife with peace. The pretty face without makeup polish was too fascinated by Nio. Zoya does have a beautiful face and does not get bored if seen for any length of time, making Nio endlessly look at her, especially this is the first time he looked closely.

"He hasn't changed at all" he said with a glowing face.

Nio looked at the delicate hands of his wife who were now hugging the small body of their child. Slowly, the burly hand moved to touch him. Nio's heart was pounding violently to feel how smooth the white skin was. He held tightly every once in a while his thumb swung giving a swipe.

"This is the dream I've always imagined, Zoya. The three of us slept in the same bed feeling in love with each other. Even though you did it for Rasya's sake, I'm really happy. Thank you, Zoya, for giving me this golden opportunity. I promise, all my life, I'll be your protector, the one who's always by your side and the only one who believes in you even if the whole world says bad things to you, because I know, you are a very good woman. Have a good night, my wife. I ... love you."

After saying that, Nio also closed his eyes to sleep by feeling such a warm feeling. Who is not happy if slowly dreams that he considers impossible actually materialize. Ah, let's hope Zoya finds out that Nio loved her a long time ago.
