La Luna (Bias Asa)
Chapter 17

Elea was stunned when she entered her grandfather's house. The little girl saw Stefan standing behind her. A stranger he never met.

"El." Aglen saw the nephew who suddenly stopped his footsteps. "Oh .. It was Uncle Stefan, still a brother also with El," explained Aglen who then walked ahead of Elea.

"Here, sweetie." Aglen waved his hand. Elea hesitated, but in her heart she was curious.

At his age, he knew only his father and mother's siblings. And there was no handsome uncle in front of him. He just found out that he has a brother as handsome as Uncle Stefan.

Elea was only a meter away in front of the two men whose height was equally towering.

And do you know at this time, Stefan who had twisted his body facing the two people of different ages was just sculpting.

His heart was again beating uncontrollably. Not to mention repeatedly he tried to put oxygen into his lungs and failed, it felt really tight.

Eleanor Ellard Walton, the little girl who finally smiled shyly in front of Stefan, stole her heart.

This girl who was most likely her flesh blood, was truly beautiful. She has black hair as clean as her mother's, brown round eyes and pliable eyelashes. And ... The least that can be lied to is the jaw and the nose. It's very similar to Stefan's.

Aglen witnessed Stefan and Elea's stiffness looking at each other. "You ... I don't see it wrong, you guys are so similar" Aglen later said.

The deg!

Stefan's heart almost fell off hearing that. The word "similar" Aglen uttered was not an accusation, but Stefan felt so.

"G ... I forgot we were brothers. So it's only natural that we look alike." Aglen laughs wryly, but Stefan believes there is a strange feeling in his cousin that is not explained.

"Darling, let's introduce you. This handsome one is also your uncle." Aglen bowed, aligning her height with Elea's.

Then lead the little girl to shake Stefan's hand.

"Stef, you don't scare a kid like that. Give me your hand!" Aglen stood back up, then whispered while bluffing Stefan who was still silent did not respond. "Stefans!! You scare her by staying silent" Aglen screeched softly as he curled his teeth.

"Ah.sorry." Stefan immediately bowed in front of Elea. "Beautiful boy, meet me Uncle Stefan, a little more handsome than Uncle Aglen. And I'm .. your father." Stefan only dared to speak his last words inwardly.

I bet you're my flesh and blood, Elea. Why did Luna never tell him. He endured everything himself.

"My name is Elea, Uncle. Just call El. Everyone calls me that. Uncle wants to go on the road with us?" tanya Elea with a typical kid's style.

"Actually uncle wants to come, El. But it seems like Uncle's affair with Grandpa Ellard should be settled first. Uncle promised to take you for a walk if Uncle's job here is done."

Stefan stroked Elea's head. There was a burning affection in his heart. It seems like they are tied to each other.

Even Stefan smoothly said his promise to the little girl.

"So papa invited you here? Working again. When are you on Stef's vacation? Looks like you've been working too hard since you left America."

"i like it. Besides, it's preparation for my little family later, isn't it?" Stefan refused to say he was working too hard. But the truth is, he just wants to get it done quickly. But when everything he has got, his biggest desire must be uprooted now.

"Where's your candidate, didn't you introduce me?" tejek Aglen's.

"You know him. Em .. I mean, you'll know her later." Stefan immediately corrected his words.

"Your son must be as pretty as Elea will be" Aglen patted Stefan's stifled shoulder in shock.

Holy jeez!!

"You changed your mind?" A mocking smile of Aglen just came out.

"Once in a while you have to relax your brain, Stef," said Aglen.

"Gazzy ... Handsome uncle is coming! Oops!" The cute little girl suddenly silenced her own mouth with both hands.

"Is Uncle Aglen not handsome, El?"

"Uncle is also handsome, but more handsome Uncle Stefan." Elea pinched her lips, the little girl lowered her head because she knew her honesty must have made her beloved uncle angry. "But El is very dear to Uncle Aglen. Really!" said excited.

"That's very comforting Uncle, El. Quick in!" Aglen was just kidding.

If with Stefan he would lose his prestige. Even in their country of birth, all the women Aglen knew knew knew who Stefan was.

The man got in Aglen's car with Elea. Stefan took a place next to Aglen and held me a beautiful girl who had been unknowingly watching him ever since.

"I want, the new building will only be used for premium customers. So all the facilities that accompany it must also be exclusive," said Luna lead a meeting in a room with architects and interior designers who will work on the development of her new building.

"The list will be sent to my mother. Whatever items should be there, you can choose it" said a woman in her 30s who works in interior design.

Luna nodded. He took a look at every detail of the framework of the building which is still in the form of three-dimensional images sent by the architect on his personal macbook.

"Comm ... I like this. Provide privacy to each customer. Make different access, where as much as possible if there are two customers coming together, they will not meet each other," Luna put out her idea.

"What if we just make a labyrinth. Then we map the road that customers have to go through, and we create maps that are connected to this smart equipment. One way for one customer," said the architect who is also the younger brother of the interior designer.

"I agree. It felt very personal, like being at home. I guess that's the concept. So everyone is completely kept secret," praised Luna indirectly to the sister.

"Yep, that's right, ma'am. This is my first project using cutting-edge technology. It just feels like in the movies. We just planned it." The architect smiled in amazement. If the project is successful, it will definitely be a stepping stone for him to become a reliable architect that deserves to be reckoned with in the country.

"Oh yes, Mom. I know a friend who owns a tech company. He had the product of a door with a pin that was created so complicated that it was difficult to hack. Maybe you are interested," bargained the interior designer.

"Can."

Luna received a business card in her hand. But when he read the name of the owner, the round eyes were perfectly glued.

He immediately grabbed the business card and squeezed it under the table.

"thank you. Looks like I want the door set up with an eye scanner."

"At my friend's place there, too, Mom. What I'm offering you is the latest product."

"No. Thank you for your help. I already have a trusted company that will work on it."

"Oh, okay."

"We'll end up here today's meeting. For more or less, you can call me directly, or to Emma," Luna pointed to her secretary.

The two brothers nodded respectfully. Then they say goodbye.
