Embrace Love's
CH 52'S. Know and familiar

Catalina has taken a shower and so has Leonard. He decided to take her to the park. He felt the need for fresh air, all day he thought was his night with Claude in the hunting lodge in the middle of the forest. The hot kiss they did at the cabin. Also the figure of Claude behind the blanket made his eyes so shameless and peeked at the man's chest.

Catalina blushed, how her brain became so perverted, her heart pounding again strangely as she recalled their kiss.

"What's wrong with me. ah, come here, Leon. Let's just go to the park. Mommy seems to need some fresh air to clear Mommy's slightly polluted brain" Catalina told Leon, who reached out with a plump hand as Catalina appeared to hold her.

The two exited the nursery, walked down the aisle, down the stairs and through several rooms to reach the garden next to the mansion. Catalina passed through the terrace and continued walking up to a gazebo. There was a swing made of iron and painted in white. He immediately sat down and stomped his feet to make the swing move.

Catalina did not realize there was someone sitting on the corner porch chair as she walked past. Simon Bernard looked at Catalina who was passing by while carrying his son Leon.

He waited for a moment before finally getting up and stepping up, approaching the swaying swing where Catalina sat while humming a little with Leonard on her lap. Simon hears Leon babbling and occasionally chuckles. He was silent and listening not far from the swing.

Feeling observed, Catalina turned to the side. Simon Bernard was already standing there with both hands in the bag. The man looked at her and Leon.

"What do you see!" cetus Catalina's.

Simon took a breath. Catalina hasn't softened at all. Still hostile, far from his attitude towards Joanna, even to Claude. In the past, Catalina was just as unfriendly to her two brothers. Consider them arrogant people who are not worthy to take care of Leon.

"I saw my son. Can't that be? Give him to me, let me carry him" Simon said.

"No. Leon doesn't like you being fat. He's getting finicky. Don't you remember what happened earlier, when you forced her to carry it!" the Sahut Catalina ketus.

Simon took another deep breath, he set his gaze on Catalina.

"Leon was like this to Joanna and Claude when he first came, right? He just wants Mommy Catalina. But now, he was familiar, willing to play and even reached out when my two brothers would carry him. You helped him adjust to my two brothers. So now, why don't you help me get Leon familiar with me?"

Simon's question was not answered. Catalina was just silent, only the sound of a swing moving filled the silence.

Simon took a deep breath. He had to persuade Catalina to help him. Leon is his real son. Simon wanted to be close to his son.

"I know, I'm the brengs** guy who's not responsible. But everyone can change, right? I just want to be close to my son. I wanted to get to know him and get him to know me as his father" Simon said.

Catalina just stared, but she remained silent. Not giving any response. Then his eyeballs moved, glancing towards Simon's back, where Claude had already walked up to them.

"You should always be here if you want to know your son, Simon. I think it's time. Let Leon see you often and spend time with you. He will know you by himself" Claude said.

The two men looked at Catalina who was still not reacting.

"I think you understand, too, don't you, Cat?" claude asked with a smile. Catalina looked down, looked at Leon's laughing face and reached out stroking his cheek.

Leon ... This family loves you and indeed your real father's family. I think you deserve their love, because you're a member of their family. Your real father even started asking to be close to you, he accepts you now ....

Catalina just kept quiet, not realizing the two brothers nearby were staring with frowns. I was curious about what Catalina was thinking.

Catalina was busy with her thoughts. If Leon had been familiar and affectionate with Bernard's family. Has the time for him to leave arrived? Their agreement used to say, Catalina had to remain in Bernard's family until Joanna and Claude could finally be accepted by Leon, then she could leave. If Catalina is kind, Joanna will let her come and see Leon if she misses her niece.

"What do you think, Catty?" ask Claude.

Simon realizes, only Claude calls Catalina with Cat or Catty. They called Catalina Lina. With interest he looked at his older brother who was stepping and moving sitting on the iron swing beside Catalina.

"none. You're right to say he should stay here and spend time with Leon if he wants to be close and familiar. Let Leon get used to you" Catalina said, turning to Simon.

Simon nodded. "Give him to me, he won't fuss if he can see you even if I carry him" Simon said with his arms outstretched.

Catalina picked up Leon and gave it to Simon. The man steps slowly, taking his son away, but accidentally searches for a place where Catalina and Claude are still visible.

"My sister has changed a lot .. very far," Claude said with a very relieved tone.

"Is it that bad?" ask Catalina.

"Yes .I and Joanna repeatedly had to deal with the mess she was making. He became very naughty and wild after the death of his mother. He left the teenager at that time, Dad lost his spirit and the disease began to eat away at him. His condition was better when he was in the Green Forest villa. So I spent more time there. Our doctor suggested he stay. Yoana and I had to hold onto the company all of a sudden. It keeps us very busy, learning everything and working on everything. We finally decided to put him in the dorm. I think that's the wrong plan. Simon felt distant and was being very naughty."

Catalina silently listened to that explanation. Looking at the father and son who knew each other, Simon seemed to be whispering softly at Leon who was looking at him with big round blue eyes.

Claude looked at Catalina who was looking deeply at Leon and Simon. The plain face without the girl's make up made Claude wantonly stroke her cheek. But he held his hand and was only satisfied with looking.

"What will ... when your sister gets married, Leon will be accepted?" ask Catalina suddenly.

Claude blinked as Catalina suddenly turned her head towards him. Their eyes looked.

"If Simon finally gets married, then the main condition is, the woman has to accept her son first" Claude said, convinced, he looked into Catalina's blue eyes asking, then without being able to be held back, his eyes dropped on the girl's lips.

Catalina's face glittered back as Claude's eyes looked at her lips. His brain could not be held back remembering their kiss in the hunting lodge. Catalina was embarrassed, as she also enjoyed Claude's touch on her lips.

Claude noticed the red hue that was creeping from the face to Catalina's neck, he grinned happily, knowing Catty also remembered the kiss they shared at the hunting lodge.

"What is going through your mind now, Catalina Seymor? Your face is as red as a ripe tomato" Claude deliberately told Catalina.

"Nothing!" Then Catalina immediately stood up, stepping quickly away from the place with a swing of her dress skirt swaying due to her extremely fast pace.

Claude chuckled, causing Simon who was looking at the half-running Catalina to turn his head towards him.

"I'm so sure, there's something going on between them in that cabin, Leon. You feel that too?" simon whispered in his son's ear.

"I think your Daddy Claud likes your Linu Mommy" whispered Simon again with a big smile.
