A ten-year-old boy was being held by a forty-two-year-old man so as not to rebel and pursue the twenty-nine-year-old woman who was the mother of the child. The man holding the crying child was her husband. It means the father of the child.
The little figure who was crying over her mother's departure was little Alex.
The marriage between father and mother Alex was a political marriage. Serena Grasile is the daughter of one of the partners of Yoga Ardian Juantama.
Alex's father falls in love with Serena at first sight when she is invited to Serena's eighteenth birthday.
Yoga has been pursuing Serena ever since. But the young girl always rejected Yoga because she felt that he was too old for her. Moreover, he already had a lover that he loved very much.
The rejection received by Yoga did not dampen his intentions. With that his intention actually grew bigger. Until there is an opportunity when the company owned by Serena's parents almost Koleps, Yoga took advantage of the situation to make Serena as his wife despite knowing that the girl does not love him.
In order to save the fate of the company, there was a marriage that Serena did not want. While Yoga hopes that with marriage, slowly he will make Serena fall in love. Especially when he found out if Serena had contained their baby.
For years their family life was fine. Serena is also slowly able to adjust even though she cannot yet love Yoga. But for the sake of his son Alex, he tried to survive.
But their quiet life did not last long. When Alex was ten years old, Serena's lover appeared. Yoga makes misunderstandings and wrath. He becomes violent towards Serena.
Serena who at that time had no love for her husband and was treated like that certainly felt tormented. And it gave him the impulse to pursue back his love which turned out to still love him.
“Im sorry dear mom. You can't be a good mom for me. Mama can no longer endure the attitude of papa.” Say Serena before she leaves the house.
At first Alex did not understand what his mother said. But when he saw that his mother was going to leave with her things, he finally found out that her mother was going to leave the house. Leaving himself and his father.
At the sight of Serena's departure, Alex cries to the point of exhaustion and fainting.
“Where's the pa?” little Alex asked as he just woke up from his stupor.
“All this is papa's fault. Never mind. Don't think about your mom anymore. He'll be happy out there. And we also have to prove that we can be happy. If mama sees us living happily, mama will come back to us.” Yoga stroking Alex's head.
At first Alex believed what Yoga said until he heard something about his mother from someone else's mouth. And the man said that Serena was a cruel mother and wife for abandoning her child and husband in pursuit of another man.
Little Alex gritted her teeth upon hearing the news. He felt lied to by his father and mother.
And that's where Alex's life-changing turning point came from. Alex who was once cheerful and warm slowly turned into a cold and indifferent person. Moreover, Yoga which always requires him to learn business early on makes him accustomed to being rigid and cruel.
But Alex's new attitude is only for outsiders. The insiders mean the four adults who saw him grow. They were the ones who accompanied Alex from childhood. Give him attention and affection. They have replaced Alex's parents in this regard because Yoga is too busy with his business dealings. The man busied himself with work in order to forget the beloved wife who had left him with other men.
“Yes so.” Alex rubbed his face after he finished telling Nara who asked why Alex was so close to the four senior aides in his house. At the moment they are enjoying a star in Alex's home rooftop.
Nara looked at Alex with a deep look. He did not expect that Alex was formed into a rigid person by a dark past.
“I didn't expect any of that to happen to you Lex.” Nara holds Alex's hand.
“I told you my past is not for you to pity.” Alex is serious. “I just want to make sure if you are not forced to with this relationship.”
“Lex . I'm so happy to be your wife. I don't feel compelled at all.”
“If someday I make a mistake or something makes you uncomfortable, feel free to tell me. I'll try to be what you want to be.”
“I don't want to be a selfish Lex. We can adjust to each other.”
“We have become husband and wife. Are you going to keep calling my name?” Alex sees Nara in his arms.
“Then I have to call you how?” Nara looks up. The opportunity was not missed by Alex for****2* his favorite lips were.
“Lex . Don't mess around.” Nara pushed Alex. They are outside. Even though it was a private area, it could have been one of the maids in Alex's house going up there and caught their action.
“Sayang. Call me dear.” Alex is serious.
“Alright Lex.. I mean dear.” Nara tightened her embrace.
“Darling, it's not sad if you hold me so tightly will wake my king oyster?” hearing Alex's words makes Nara freeze and withdraw from Alex.
“Tonight take a holiday. Please.” Nara cupped her hands together in front of her chest.
“Why?” Alex is confused. It's been a week of their marriage. And they did it every day without any rejection from Nara. But now his wife is rejecting him.
“Tomorrow I will have to see the supervising lecturer for the last one before next week's hearing. I don't want to walk penguins to campus.” Nara thaws. It's been a week that he feels the road is strange. The bottom part still feels stuck every time they do it. He was even embarrassed to leave the house.
“I promise tonight I will control myself.” Alex tried to persuade his wife.
“No Lex. I mean honey. You've said this many times. But what was the result. You still finish me off until I ask for mercy.” Nara glanced at Alex sharply. While the one glimpsed just chuckled while scratching his nape.
“That's because you're too seductive. But I promise tonight I'll hold her.”
“No. Your promise doesn't apply.” Nara stood up and walked away from Alex who was thinking about how he could still get his share tonight.
Alex immediately chased after Nara when his wife was almost on the second floor.
“Sayang come. A one-time. Appointment.” Alex raised two fingers.
“No yes no.” Nara answered as she opened the door and entered their room.
“Darling don't you feel sorry for me? Don't you know if king oyster is awake and doesn't show his abilities, he will make my head dizzy.” Alex put on his face.
Nara's lips twitched. Since when did Alex become this semester?
“Come darling. One time only.” Alex kept pressing. Nara finally nodded her head.
“Hahs. Alright. But only one time yes.” Nara said that made Alex's eyes sparkle with pleasure. One-time affairs or how many times it can be rearranged.
