Ashgard: Ambition and Purpose
Family Tiny #150

The atmosphere of the cold morning, the sky that tends to be dominant with the color of gray, and the morning dew that is still seen wetting the leaves on the plants in the villa garden. Berlin just sat quietly enjoying the calm atmosphere, yes, although not too calm, the sound of Akira was heard lamat-goals were engrossed in playing in the park, precisely on the edge of the fish pond, five meters behind him.

Berlin let the boy play for a while with his wife, sitting back and letting his mind drift. For now, there was one thing that stuck in his mind, one thing he had not talked about with his wife.

Ten minutes passed, Nadia stepped slowly towards the man, and then immediately sat right beside him. His presence made Berlin immediately ask, "Where are you?" his ears could still hear the voice of the goal-goal Akira who seemed to be engrossed in playing.

"Tuh, again engrossed himself," replied Nadia, turning to confirm Akira's whereabouts. After finishing feeding the fish in the pond, the boy seemed to still be engrossed in looking at the fish there. Not only that, he did, several times Akira ran around in the middle of the park, approached many flower plants, and had time to catch a beautiful butterfly that was quite a lot of flying around the flowers of the park.

Berlin had seen how carefree the little girl was when playing in the garden behind her villa. His smile was clear, before then flat when his attention again threw towards the natural scenery and urban buildings.

The soft, warm, and very delicate white hand belonging to Nadia suddenly just grasped one of the hands belonging to her man. As if she knew there must be something that stuck up the man's heart based on the look on his face, Nadia immediately asked, "is there something you want to talk about?"

Berlin smiled faintly, chuckled, turned his head and replied, "you can always just read my expression, huh?"

With an arrogant intonation, Nadia immediately snatched, "of course, I'm your wife!" he replied, before being overwritten by his laughter which looked and sounded very graceful.

The graceful expression mixed with the cheerfulness shown by Nadia, managed to make Berlin smile back. He began to talk about the thing that stuck his heart, and he should have talked about this some time before.

"I want to talk about a job I'm likely to take on later, honey. But before I make a decision, I want to ask your blessing and permission.". Berlin began to speak with intonation and attitude that is so reverent and very serious, very different from the old Berlin.

"What job is that? Is it promising, and guaranteeing?" sahut Nadia, asked quite enthusiastically. Of course she will continue to provide support for her husband, as long as the work is good.

"Garwig offered me an important job and role, more precisely Ashgard. The job was security-related, especially the Mayor's security." Berlin answered immediately, and explained a little about the details of the work offered to him.

Hearing the answer and the brief explanation, Nadia was quite stunned and silent for a moment. The mummy gulped, and seemed to be thinking and worrying about something, before finally speaking up.

"Safety? Means ... You're not going all the way from guns and bullets, are you?" murmuring with a gaze certainly saves a worry and trauma of its own.

Berlin turned his head, looked deeply at his wife, and understood a bit of trauma from within Nadia. But apparently Nadia was not so concerned about the trauma she saved, she suddenly said, "does it mean you will be part of the apparatus?" he said his enlarged eyeballs exuded enthusiasm, and seemed to try to bury deeply in the trauma.

Berlin shrugged both shoulders and replied, "i don't know if it can be called that or not."

"Berlin," Nadia's gaze was gentle, yet solemn. His hand felt soft and warm. He continued his words, "be honest and answer my question!" he said before throwing up a question saying, "do you want to take the job?" the intonation of his speech though sounded soft and gentle valley, but the firmness within him could be seen from his sharp gaze.

Berlin itself has distributed about the job offer from Garwig along with his friends, especially his confidants, and they all agreed to participate in accordance with the decision he would later make.

A motivation to change, indeed made Berlin think very deeply and seriously about the job offer some time before. Especially with the presence of the figure of the wife, Nadia, as well as the prospective baby in the belly of the woman, and added himself also plans to raise the little girl named Akira as his daughter. Of course, he could not continue to be in the criminal world, and provide his small family with dirty money. But looking for a good job in the present moments is not easy, plus he has colleagues that he also has to think about.

In his mind after hearing the offer given by Garwig a few days ago, of course he had a decision to take.

Berlin clasped her hands tightly together, and then replied, "yes, I'll take it!" he said with low intonation, but sounded and looked very serious and determined.

Hearing that answer, a gentle, thin smile was shown by Nadia. "Berlin, I'm glad that you've changed" said the young mother-to-be with a pushy look of happiness.

"I will support you! Although of course I know how the risk of work that you will receive," continued Nadia, smiling sweetly, and intonation and speech that is very polite and full of gentle. He seemed to try not to harbor excessive worry, although it seemed very difficult to hide.

Berlin smiled at the anxious expression of his wife. With such a calm demeanor, the grip he still held, Berlin said, "don't worry ...! I've been through a lot, so there's no need to be afraid or worried! You get it, don't you, honey?"

So spoiled, Nadia relaxed her body, leaning her head right between the two strong arms of the man. The contact made him drown in hugs and a bit of a warm embrace from Berlin that responded to his behavior.

Nadia snorted and sighed, before then chanting, "i think this has also become a risk for me to be your wife. So I have to be ready for anything!" he said, the intonation of speaking sounded undaunted and as if ready to face any obstacles.

Berlin gently stroked the head belonging to the wife who is now in his arms. He smiled at what he said, and gave a small chuckle.

"I always felt, as long as there was you and your prayers, I would be fine in any circumstances and situations." Berlin stared at the beautiful face with his wife's blushing cheeks, before continuing to say, "I want you to continue to be a source of motivation and support for me, forever. Are you ready?"

Shortly after hearing that answer, Berlin immediately kissed Nadia's forehead softly, full of affection. Seeing the woman smiling happily, indirectly also made her heart feel the same way. His smile also continued to be plastered, and probably would not fade if he continued to see Nadia happy as she is today.

"Mama!" akira's voice broke the two. The boy ran over to Berlin and Nadia was sitting on the same bench, even very close together.

"What, Honey?" nadia's reflexes responded to the call.

"Mama, Akira is hungry!" sahut Akira, holding his little belly.

Berlin and Nadia were immediately made to chuckle at the cute expression, and heard what Akira said. It looks like the child is tired after running around and playing alone in the park, so that it makes his little stomach rumble.

"Aren't we having breakfast together?" ask Berlin.

"I-iya, but ... Akira wants to eat the same grilled sausage omelet made by Mama again!" akira, very enthusiastic. His enthusiastic gaze turned to Nadia, before then asking, "can you, right?"

Nadia smiled looking at the cute face of the little girl who had a pleading expression on her. Absolutely adorable. If he can't stand it, maybe he's pinching Akira's chubby cheeks.

"You how? Can I make the same with Akira?" nadia asked, stood up from the bench, and asked Berlin.

"I .. sandwich, huh! Kangeen taste of your homemade sandwich," said Berlin, with a little teasing his wife.

"Sen ... whoa? What'sthat?" chirps Akira, slightly tilting his head, and with a very innocent expression, not knowing what it looks like "sandwich". It sounded like a good meal, even though his tongue was overwhelmed to name the food.

"I don't know?" sahut Berlin asked, drawing himself closer to Akira who was standing in front of him.

The child simply shook his head, his expression as if he was still wondering by himself as to the shape and taste of what a sandwich was.

Nadia smiled warmly at the innocent expression of the child. She held one of her little hands together and said, "yuk! Mama makes sandwiches, you can try them if you want."

At once Akira was immediately excited, very happy, jumping small, and seemed impatient. He pulled Nadia's hand and said, "come on, Mama! Akira wants to help make it! Akira wants to know how to make that 'sanwih!"

"Sandwich, Honey. Not 'sanwih'," said Berlin rectifying Akira's speech. The little girl just laughed.

"Aren't you coming now?" nadia asked Berlin as she went to the kitchen.

Berlin smiled, shook his head, and replied, "i'd like to be here for a while, I'll just follow you to the kitchen."

"All right!" Nadia smiled at the answer. He immediately went to the kitchen, holding the little girl next to him who looked impatient.

"Mama, san ... sen .. ah-what did that food make her wear, anyway?" Akira asked, giving up when his tongue of distress tried to call the word "sandwich".

"Sandwiches are of many kinds, anyway. There are fruit sandwiches, there are meat sandwiches, there are also egg sandwiches. Depends on which Akira wants Mama to make it?" replied Nadia.

"Nm ... Akira was confused, it seemed all good. Akira just follow Mama who wants to do it, hehehe!" akira replied, chuckling lightly, with her carefree expression still plastered clearly.

The conversation continued to be heard all the way from the park, going inside, even to the kitchen. The voices of the two of them sounded clear, until the goal sounded away. Berlin could hear all those conversations, and for some reason he suddenly smiled when he heard all the conversations of the two people that were so precious to him.

The view is still fixed towards the natural scenery and the beautiful urban buildings are seen from afar, although it seems that the weather in the sky is not so beautiful in the morning towards this afternoon, more dominant with gray clouds. But compared to all the scenes, the attention of his heart and ears were more interested and focused on listening to the conversation between Nadia and Akira in the kitchen, which could still be heard.
