Elena is no longer working as a lecturer when she can do because there are many campuses that she can go to in America. I don't know why he would prefer to volunteer after his return from London. Elena teaches at an orphanage. He is not paid, he does it voluntarily. After all Elena was unwilling to work and bound to anything. He would rather have free time.
Although he could work in a family-owned company, but he did not want to. Some companies he once sent out cover letters to once again contacted him and asked Elena to join but he refused on the grounds of changing his mind. Now, he actually enjoys his activities more along with the orphanage children.
"Elena, the food's ready!" shouted mother.
"Shortly, Mom!" Elena tied her hair up and after that the bag was taken because she was about to leave.
Elena was as carefree as ever, she did not look sad at all even though her father and brother forbade her to see Jansen even she was not allowed to contact Jansen. It's not a matter of, after all, he did want to see the seriousness of Jansen. The time he gave was only two days away, he wanted to see if Jansen could find his whereabouts or not. If Jansen doesn't come, then she won't wait anymore because she'll be looking for a life partner.
"What did Mommy do?" elena asked after she was at the dinner table.
"Your favorite food. Eat before it gets cold!"
"Where's Daddy? Is he gone?" elena asked as she pulled out a chair.
"Later he's coming, it looks like there's something your Daddy wants to talk about!" said mother.
"Talking what? Does Daddy want to open a new company and ask Elena to manage it?"
"It doesn't seem like it!" Amanda filled her daughter's plate with food.
"So, what is Daddy talking about?" ask Elena.
"We'll see later. Mommy will call him. Now eat!" said mother.
"Thanks, Mom," Elena smiled before her mother left her. Food began to be enjoyed, Elena so think about the state of Leo and also the others. He really did not contact anyone when he wanted to contact Mariana. She had already heard from the lawyer she trusted to help Mariana if Mariana's case was over.
It feels so relieving. Although it was very short and a lot of things happened but he learned a lot from the troubled children. If he had been raised by a troubled family like them, he was sure that he would have rebelled like them.
Her father and mother approached, while Elena was enjoying her meal. Elena was astonished because her father looked at her seriously. There must be something, he's sure of it.
"Why is Daddy looking at me like that?" ask Elena.
"That's been three years, are you really waiting for that young man named Jansen?" ask father.
"That's, Dad. I was waiting for him."
"What if he doesn't come, Elena? Are you still waiting for him or are you going to go look for him?"
"Of course not, Dad. Just a few more days from the time I set. If he doesn't come then I won't wait and I'll find a girlfriend!"
"Good, you should do it. You are my daughter, the daughter of our family no one can beg for love. You understand what Daddy means, don't you?"
"Of course, Dad. I will not beg for love in any man. So Daddy doesn't have to worry. If Jansen doesn't come at the time I set then I won't wait for him anymore!"
"Well, Daddy just wants to talk about this, what about your activities, are there any obstacles?" ask father.
"No, those kids just need some stuff and I'm working on it."
"Why not tell us, honey?" ask mother.
"Well, Mommy and Daddy will go there sometime."
"For what? Mommy won't bother me, will she?"
"Of course not, we want to go there to be donors."
Elena smiled, she guessed. She is proud to have parents who care. He was so sorry for the lost young men. He did not feel how rejected by the family because he had a loving family.
"Mom, Dad. Leo's coming back, I hope you can accept him later."
"Oh yeah, when?" ask mother.
"Okay, but in the near future. I'll call him later."
"We'll take it, Elena. Like Daddy accepted by your grandma and grandpa, Daddy will take it later!" said Edward. He is also a foster child, a child that his mother does not want. Perhaps he would have died if not found by his mother who now even he was like a biological child and not distinguished at all. Now, he also did not mind treating the other person's child as his child even though the child was an adult.
"Thanks, Dad. You're the best. Now it's time for me to go" said Elena as she had finished eating.
"What time are you coming home, Elena?" ask mother.
"Maybe afternoon, Mom. I'll eat at home" Elena moved on and kissed her mother and father on the cheek.
"I go first" he said.
"Be careful, honey, enjoy your day" said his mother.
"Thanks. Bye mom, bye Dad!" Elena waved as she walked out. It was time to go to the orphanage to do the activities he had always done. Thanks to the orphanage children, he did not feel too long waiting. Even so, there was a longing in his heart that he could not deny.
Elena was escorted by a private driver, she just needed to sit down until she arrived at the orphanage which was quite a distance away. Elena even chose to sleep on the trip while enjoying music from an ear-mounted instrument.
As usual, the journey to the orphanage always went well. Elena always enjoyed her time but not today because suddenly, the car stopped suddenly. Elena was surprised, her eyes were open when she was almost asleep.
"What's wrong, why did you stop?" elen asked the driver.
"Sorry, Miss. Someone's blocking our way!"
"What?" Elena looked ahead where a car was blocking their way.
"Hurp the horn, it's possible that the car is broken!" Elena's orders.
"Well, Miss!" the horn sounded many times, but the car did not get out of the way. Elena started to get upset, she wanted to return to give orders but a man who got off the car shocked her.
"Leo?" Elena was astonished that Leo was there. Without wasting any time, Elena got out of the car but she was again surprised to see another man who was already standing on the side of the car.
Between happy and upset mixed into one. Elena stepped slowly, but her pace grew even faster. The young man he saw was of course Jansen, he had come ahead of schedule and was able to find Elena's whereabouts thanks to Leo's help.
"Sister," Leo called out but Elena was stepping closer to Jansen. Both of Jansen's hands were wide open, she was already very eager to hug Elena for longing but unfortunately, one punch Elena gave on her face.
"What's? Why did you hit me?" jansen asked but after the punch she got, Elena hugged her tightly. Jansen smiled, what an unexpected welcome and she hugged Elena to treat the longing she had been craving for three years.
