The touch was still felt at the nape of his neck, as well as the breath that was getting heated up with his gentle movements. Again and again his hair blocked the view, but it didn't matter because the most important thing was that he could feel it on top.
His heart was beating faster and would explode, until then there was an empty space that caused voidness.
Hhhhhhhhhhh
An almost breath that was the same as despair, weighing on his steps that had to go up even though the number was only three.
A servant bowed his head in exchange for a greeting, he replied with a small smile. As usual, his feet continued to step into the house, walking up to the dining room.
"Hi San! during the morning" greeted Alisya who first glanced.
"Morning.lady." he said.
But those eyes, were fixed on the girl who should not have been there. Her forehead wrinkled with a unmoved body, while the girl could only stare for a moment then averted her eyes.
"Oh Manager San, would you like to join us?" ask Joey who just arrived.
"Ah, no, thank you my mistress.I have breakfast at home" she replied.
"You have breakfast too early, next time you have to empty your stomach and have breakfast with us" Alisya said.
Manager San could only smile, before long Chad finished his breakfast and immediately left with him.
On the way to the office his focus is split in two between the road and Kyra, of course he had just dreamed of the girl and now suddenly they meet in a place that is not supposed to be.
"Young master, if I may ask" he decided that the question mark above his head was gone.
"Say"
"Why is Miss Kyra in your house?" said it.
Chad snorted a little, but then he replied.
"He was traumatized by my treatment of him, he couldn't accept that fact so easily that I would take care of him until he was healed"
"So it looks" he murmured.
Obviously Manager San knows the sadness that Kyra is experiencing because she was there when Kyra was down, even she became a hoe for the girl.

Although the problem is inflamed but as much as possible they cover it, although it clearly looks a pretense but life must still go on.
Like the morning that the family usually gathers in the dining room despite losing appetite for food, Jack as usual leads his extended family to look fine.
"Where's Blue?" tanyanya looked at the bench where Kyra used to sit empty.
"I'll drop her some food later" Violet said.
No more questions, it's in Violet's favor because she won't argue with Jack.
Yesterday without anyone's knowledge, I immediately spoke to Kyra, pressuring her for all the plans she had neatly arranged.
Unexpectedly, Kyra now according to no unnecessary debate, she is like a donkey who is ready to be brought even to the abyss.
Finished breakfast Shigima goes to the office with Jack, Ryu goes to the hospital where he works while the others are busy with their respective affairs.
Seeing the situation quite safe Violet rushed away, heading towards the Joyi residence to see her daughter.
Arriving at Joyi's residence she is welcomed by the servants, as well as Kyra who is happy about the visit.
"I'm sorry for bothering you"
"No, of course not. You have the right to meet Kyra whenever you want, please have a conversation" replied Joyi who then left them both.
"My daughter... how?" violet asked curiously.
"They treat me well, I'm happy to stay here"
"That's good, there's no debate in this house so you can focus on learning" said Violet, who was unaware that she was the source of the debate.
"Are they asking me?"
"Of course, your grandfather as usual asked you but I didn't say. He didn't ask anymore either so you better stop thinking about your father's family, the main thing is that even if you and Chad can't get married but he can be with you" she replied.
Kyra nodded and smiled slightly.
"This time we must not go into this matter, let whatever happens never mix it up. We only have each other, we have to think about our own fate" Violet said as she gently stroked Kyra's hair.
"I understand" he answered.
Despite wanting to linger in a more beautiful house than the Hermes residence but Violet knows she must know herself, content to chat with Kyra she immediately say goodbye.

Many times he glanced at the watch in his hand until a shout made him look back, from afar Ima waved her hand with a wide smile.
As soon as the red light flashed quickly he ran across the street, as usual the cheer immediately came as soon as he arrived.
"You waited a long time?" tanyakanya.
"I almost became a charlatan because of you" joked Alisya.
"I'm sorry, you know it took me a while to get here"
"Come on, let's go" said Alisya.
Today the two girls are planning to watch a movie, not an ordinary romantic movie but a pretty disgusting horror movie. This is because Alisya lost the game when they did a pajama party at Ima's house, as a result of that defeat Alisya had to pay a cinema ticket for Ima and treat him to a meal.
"I hate this the most, I'm sure I'll regret it for life" Alisya said as they sat in the chair.
"Come on. It's not that bad, you just need to close your eyes when you're scared"
"It's easy for you to talk" Alisya said somewhat annoyed.
Ima just smiled in response to the remark, inedible expression of Alisya's pouting casually he enjoyed the movie being played.
"When are we going to have a pajama party at my house?" ask Alisya.
"When you want to"
"There's a little change at home, don't you mind?"
"What's wrong?" ask Ima curious.
Alisya thought a little while biting her lower lip, only then she spoke.
"There's a girl living in our house"
"Who?"
"His name is Kyra, he's Chad's other cousin. Do you remember giving me Christmas presents? you met at that time" he replied.
Ima pondered, guessing what had happened until Kyra could stay at home with Chad.
"No problem, more people are more fun, right?" ima says.
"Alright then tonight you will stay" said Alisya.
Ima nodded in agreement, no matter for her the presence of Kyra but her heart billed an explanation from Chad.
That afternoon they arrive home, gladly Joyi welcomes the arrival of Ima while Kyra can only stare in wonder. But then given how Chad and Ima are related, it is only natural that Ima be accepted into the family.
"Sometimes Chad eats dinner outside, usually I'm also always busy until I get home late at night and let Alisya eat alone. But tonight with your visit and Kyra I can finally have a happy dinner" Joyi said in the dining room.
They chat a lot especially Ima who can freely talk to Joyi and Alisya, making Kyra a little jealous because she can only be a listener.
After dinner, Joyi leaves to take care of some things, leaving the three girls still sitting in the dining room.
"Kyra, we're going to have a pajama party. Do you want to come?" bargain Ima.
"It seems like I'm going to go to bed" Kyra replied hesitantly.
"Come on, this won't be boring" said Ima.
"True, more people will be more exciting" added Alisya.
Because they continued to insist relentlessly, Kyra finally gave up too, thinking to keep acting as a good listener only. But at the pajama party that graceful looking Alisya turned into a nag and asked a lot, making it hard to deny.
"I never knew that Chad had another cousin, what exactly was your relationship with Chad?" alisya asked which made Ima much more shocked than Kyra.
Of course because it means Alisya does not know about all the problems that happened to Chad, this makes Ima think that Alisya also does not know about the brotherhood between Chad and Agler.
"I. My father is Chad's father's brother" Kyra explained briefly.
"That's how it looks, but all this time why did you just come to look?" ask Alisa again.
"I used to live abroad, so I just came"
"Ah so apparently" muttered Alisya.
Question after question continued to be said and Kyra continued to answer briefly without explaining more details, as if she wanted to cover up the relationship that once existed between Chad and him.
Late at last the party ended when they began to sleepy, sleeping in the same bed and sharing a blanket strangely made Kyra comfortable to sleep soundly.
But the usual Ima who was almost awake every night decided to go out, meet Chad who had just returned home and was resting in the library while reading a book.
"You really like reading, can I get you a drink?" ask Ima.
"No need, how's the party?"
"Fun as always" replied Ima.
Chad nodded a few times before then returning to his book.
"Law.... Chad, can I ask you something?"
"Sure" Chad said.
"Did Alisha not know all these facts? he even seemed to have just met Kyra and didn't know you were Agler's brother" she said.
Chad's eyes became empty because of the question, at the close of the book still while daydreaming. After a few seconds he answered.
"As much as possible I want to cover everything from Alisya, she is the first family I know as well as a stranger so I don't want to involve her in this matter"
"But Chad, Alisya was missing and you said Hans was the kidnapper. That means his life is in danger just like yours, how can you hide all these facts if he's directly involved"
"I know, this is what I'm trying to fix"
"At least he should know the outline, he also deserves to know the sibling bond that you and brother Agler have" Ima said firmly.
"I'll tell you everything, I'm just waiting for the right time to talk" Chad replied.
Chad's desire to protect Alisya is right, but covering all the problems from him is also not justified.

Too focused on Chad's problems makes Jack forget the whole house that worries him, his consciousness only returned when that night Jessa suddenly fell in the bathroom.
It was only then that he realized that he had not given pills to maintain Jessa's health, regretting his carelessness Jack then went to the usual place he and Tianna met.
Unfortunately Tianna never appeared, even until the morning before there was no sign of his appearance.
"Why did he suddenly disappear?" muttered fretfully.
Tired of waiting all night he finally decided to go home with frustration, his feet had just stepped into the area of the house a waiter suddenly ran up to him.
"What's wrong?" his question was astonished to see the look on the maid's anxious face.
"Mrs.he can't get out of bed"
"What?" jack shouted in surprise.
