Fayza woke up with her head still dizzy and felt that a pair of burly hands hugged her warmly. His face looked up and saw Hideo looking at him intensely.
"Still sick?" ask Hideo gently. "What do you feel?"
Fayza saw how her husband's shirt looked crumpled and her husband looked like he hadn't slept all night.
"A little dizzy" said Fayza slowly. "How long..I fell asleep?"
"Evening."
"And during..that's...you hugged me?"
Hideo did not answer and only kissed Fayza on the forehead. "Yes." Yeah." And I heard your delusions. "Do you remember anything?" ask Hideo with a pounding heart.
Fayza seemed to think and shook her head. "Still the same. Blank."
Shut up Hideo breathed a sigh of relief. "You want to eat? Or what do you want?"
"I just want to get up and take a shower." Fayza looked at Hideo's tired face. "Thank you for taking care of me."
"I'll always take care of you no matter what happens, Fay. Remember that Fay. You are mine."
Fayza looked at her husband's face with a puzzled look. "What's up Hideo?"
"I don't want to lose you" whispered Hideo who made Fayza's heart warm.
"I'll take a shower first." Fayza glanced at the digital clock on the nightstand that showed at five in the morning. The body feels stiff and sticky all so Fayza wants to soak in hot water.
***
Hideo stared at his wife's departure to the bathroom without any intention of catching up. Last night while he was looking after Fayza, his wife was delirious quite often.
*Mama.papa...Fay kangen's...
Sister Freya.mas Haris...
Pram..i kangen* ...
Hideo was furious to hear Fayza's words still calling his dead girlfriend. I'm jealous to hear your miss say to that guy.
Hideo gets out of bed and tidies himself and leaves Fayza's room. There was already activity in his house as the servants were already on their way up to start the routine.
Fumiko herself was awake and was enjoying hot tea in the living room. Seeing her son coming down with a tangled shirt and panda eyes, Fumiko was sure her son did not sleep all night.
"Have you not slept all night?" fumiko asked as Hideo sat nearby.
"No, Okaasan."
"Hideo, before things go wrong, it's good that you resign your intention to take the land of Itaewon."
Hideo tightened his jaw. "No, mom. I'll take the land!"
Fumiko was just speechless at how stubborn Hideo was. "What was Itaewon's land going to do, son?"
"Development of my business, Okaasan. I can get a lot of benefits there."
Fumiko did not comment anymore because the more she fussed, the higher Hideo's will be.
***
Fayza was drying her blond hair when Hideo walked into the room with an unreadable face. Without saying anything, Hideo hugged himself from behind while smelling the fragrant bath soap he was wearing.
"Don't try to remember anymore, Fay. I can't see you in such pain" Hideo whispered.
"I don't know why either. I suddenly felt like I had seen a commotion between you and Okaasan but not you. Where.I can't remember. Anyone, I don't know" said Fayza softly.
Hideo tightened his embrace. "Don't scare me like yesterday."
"Why are you so scared?" asked Fayza who looked at Hideo's expression from the mirror before him.
"I don't want to lose you."
Fayza was confused by her husband's attitude.
***
Fumiko returns to Japan today and once again she orders her only son.
"Remember Okaasan's message, Hideo. Don't fish for sleeping tigers!"
Hideo just stared flat at his mother. "Call down Okaasan. I'm not afraid to face them."
Fumiko breathed a long breath. "Come to you, Hideo."
Fumiko walks towards Fayza who seems to give the mother and son a chance to talk together.
"Thank you for accepting your child in an unusual way. Have you started loving your mom?"
Fumiko did talk herself 'mama' to Fayza to be different from Hideo. Ayu Fumiko's face looked relieved when Fayza said that. Just like Hideo who does not want to let go of Fayza, Fumiko herself likes her daughter-in-law.
"Sorry mom, if at the time of mama here, I was sick" said Fayza in a guilty tone.
"It's okay, baby. Mama knows your condition so you can understand." Fumiko hugged Fayza tightly. "It's healing soon and I hope you can remember everything again."
"Yes mom. Thank you." Thank you." Fayza also returned Fumiko's embrace which felt very warm.
Afterwards, Fumiko took a helicopter to fly to Seoul to get to Incheon airport.

"Mr Luca Bianchi refused your offer, boss. Again." Jin reported to Hideo after dinner. Fayza said she wanted to take a break while continuing her novel and asked Hideo to work alone in her study.
Hideo looked at Jin with a face holding back in annoyance.
"Make an appointment with Luca. Tell him I'll see him in Tokyo!"
"Good boss."
***
Fabio comes to Luca who is playing with his son Luke in the children's playroom. Duo L is now four years old and becomes the pride of the Al Jordan and Bianchi families.
Joey Bianchi, Luca's cousin, lives in New York with his wife Georgina and their daughter Blaze, making Miki Al Jordan Akandra closer to his great-grandson who lives with him.
Besides Luca and Luke in the playroom, Mario and Marco were there.
"What's the matter Fabio? Night-night entrance to the main house?" marco asked to see Luca's assistant coming over with a tense face.
"Sorry Signore Marco but I just got word from Jin Kawashima who wants a meeting between Signore Luca and Hideo Kojima Park tomorrow afternoon."
Luca just smiled smirk. "It's still just the Silver Shinning mafia. Let's just say tomorrow we have lunch at RR's Meal Ginza."
"The problem of the land of Itaewon?" ask Mario.
"Yes Oom Mario but the land is very, very strategic and the value is very good."
"Luc, what are you gonna do?" ask Marco.
"It won't leave it to Silver Shinning plus the landowner would rather sell it to us so want him to raise by an additional 50% of what we spend, still I will not let go because it is suitable for us to build a medium to upper apartment there. Joey and I have calculated a breakpoint if a lot of Korean idols live there with high security guarantees so Sasaengs can't get close to their idols."
"If that's the case, keep Luc" Marco said.
"Yes Dad." Luca turned his head towards Fabio who was indeed living in the pavilion of the bodyguards and assistants who were single. "Same the same Hideo. I'll wait tomorrow."
Fabio nodded. "Okay, Signore Luca."
***
"Boss." Jin called Hideo who was checking all the files on arms sales to conflict countries in Africa and South Asia.
"Yes, Jin?"
"There's a message from Signore Bianchi's assistant."
"What's he saying?" ask Hideo.
"Signore Bianchi accepted our lunch request."
"Where?"
"RR's Meal Ginza."
Hideo smiled smirk. "Have our silent cell men in Tokyo prepare because I want to get the land of Itaewon no matter how."
"What in Seoul need to be taken?"
Hideo looked at Jin. "Bring Hyong-wa and Jae-Hee but prepare ten shadow bodyguards."
"Good boss."
If you need to, I'll force you, Bianchi!
