IMPERFECT MARRIAGES
CHAPTER 123 - Ethan

After returning home from Spain, Valerie has always stayed away from Ethan. Even at school or Les's place the two are rarely seen together. It's not Ethan Armend to give up on a friend who makes his life comfortable. The boy asked Mama Ayu to make Vale's favorite meal, of course it was welcome but only food was accepted.

Ethan was confused, asking Theo a lot. But there was absolutely nothing but sad reality, when in Alcaniz a boy tried to get close to Vale.

Ethan does not accept having to share friendships, he always confirms in his heart that Valerie is his best friend.

“Oh that's yes. Is he better than me?” ethan asked innocently.

“Can yes, can not. I don't like strangers. That kid sucks, I don't want Vale taken, Valerie's my sister.” Theodore blazingly said, imagining Valerie going out with another friend was very unpleasant. For Ethan and Theodore, Valerie belongs to both of them.

The days went by without stopping or slowing down, Princess Son Dariel and Fredella got bigger. Both are now in junior high school. The three separate schools, because Dariel more leads Theodore to become a professional racer. If there is a chance, the father and son must go around the circuit, either domestically or in a neighboring country.

As Valerie gets bigger, she finds her world. Active in social activities as well as nature lovers. And this is inversely proportional to Ethan, the boy is still fond of playing games even following some e-sports, supported Dad Bobby of course.

It's okay his single son's talent is different from the others, but Ethan isn't a lazy man like people say. She loves Mama Ayu very much, if the holidays must help her Mama in the boutique or play to the company. It's just Ethan's activities after parting ways with Theodore and Valerie.

Not once a month meet, and this makes Ethan become closed including to his cousin except Natasha. A very chatty little boy, always bothering Ethan, wants to learn how to play games.

Although noisy and tiring, but now Natasha is the only one who can interfere with the days of Ethan Armend after Vale is busy with a myriad of activities.

As with today's Mireya's birthday, the party is held very festive and lavishly at the Bradley Mansion, but only Theodore is in sight. Ethan's two eyes continued to search not finding a beautiful and fierce figure.

“Where's Valerie?” ethan muttered, really missing his little best friend. Almost a year did not meet or see the girl in thick glasses.

“Ethan? You in there? Come in.” Invite Denver, as the oldest brother he must protect all his sisters, that's the message Papa Dewa.

“Kak, don't go.” Natasha pulls Ethan's back shirt.

“Iya bauble, let's hurry! Don't get no seats.” Tukas Ethan saw the guests present. “Oh yes sis, is today Vale coming?” please-hope anxious Ethan, can only look at and miss through social media Valeri.

Although almost all about social activities and nature, but tucked a photo or two how beautiful Valerie.

“Ah Vale of course coming. Opa Adam threatened all of us, but I'm not afraid. It's just a threat.” Denver answered, her attitude of the right blend between Mama Dwyne and Papa Dewa, made her an idol in school. Her witty brain drives all teenage girls crazy, but Denver is reluctant to get into a relationship with any of them.

“Finally get to meet Vale too.” Ethan exclaimed, he no longer knew what to use, because Vale never replied to chat messages or comments on social media accounts.

“You were a child should not have a crush on my cousin's sister, forbidden.” Denver is definitely joking but Ethan takes it seriously.

Attention is all captured as Mireya Agatha Manassero heads for the park accompanied by Valerie and Zoey.

“Wah Vale.” Ethan's amazed look, the girl without the thick glasses that used to decorate and now looks very beautiful.
