The family dinner that Arlan usually does every two weeks, makes Sandy feel anxious because she has not seen the presence of her favorite sister, Alexa.
"Agh, where's Alexa? Why has it been 20:30 Alex hasn't arrived yet ...?" he said, it became more and more so when he saw the clock wrapped around his wrist.
Again, the two eyeballs of Sandy immediately rounded large, when seeing Alexa came with Brian with a face that sparkled.
How not, Brian had brought the young girl to his apartment to clean up. While giving a mini dress that he ordered in one of Cua subscription boutiques five years ago.
Cream-colored evening dress worn by Alexa, very contrasting in white skin that looks very charming also elegant with brown hair beautiful like a happy young girl.
Alexa's flickering fingers grabbed Brian's arms, as he approached his adoptive parents, leading Arlan to glance straight at Shinta, saying in a whispering tone, "Did Alexa have a serious relationship with Brian?"
Shinta just smiled at Arlan, "No way Bi, I know how Alexa is. He's just comfortable working at Brian's company. The Alexa section knows very well how the nature of Brian who already has a wife. Moreover, Brian also loved Cua very much."
Arlan nods to confirm, but he can see how his daughter's behavior from body language implies there is a special relationship between Alexa and Brian.
Arlan tries to shake his feelings, he approaches Alexa who is walking close to his family, only to mince words with Brian, "Hi Brian ... how are you?" Hugging him, hurrying to release the hand of his beloved daughter from the arm of his business partner.
Brian smiled sumringah, "Okay Mr. Arlan. Oya, Papa asked me, why didn't you come to see him today. I think you have a very busy life, even though it's been replaced by Sandy."
Slightly bowing his face, Arlan gently rubbed his chest that was not as firm as before, "Tell the old man, I'm sorry. Because today you know for yourself, I have other businesses besides our medical devices. I just went to the restaurant, and bought some meat for the barbeque tonight. Oya, what about Cua's condition? Has there been any progress?"
Brian answered Arlan's question very coldly, "Come on Mr. Arlan. It seems I can only devote myself to God for Cua's healing. For more than five years he was lying weakly on the bed, unable to speak. Just pray for the best, because tomorrow morning I and the rest of the team will go to Rome, bring your beloved daughter."
Hearing Brian's explanation, Arlan simply nodded his head, as Sandy had already told him all of the company's activities over the next week.
"Come, we'll have dinner together. Not to diminish my respect for Cua, we want us to enjoy a bottle of champagne with you, Brian, for the success of our very good partnership," Arlan invites Brian to sit in a park chair that is available in the pool area, with a view of the expanse of the sea is very beautiful if the night.
Alexa glanced at Brian, with a sad look full of love. How not, they spent only 30 minutes kissing each other in Brian's private room.
"Oghb ... Mr. Baby is very warm, even able to make me more curious about your touch ..." His smile again pursed when the daydream was surprised by Sandy who embraced the friendly shoulder of his beloved sister.
"Where are you hmm? I'm so worried about you. Why does your car stay in the office? Aren't we leaving for Rome tomorrow morning?"
Alexa realized that she was driving her own vehicle this morning. He patted his eel and said, "Agh. Maybe I'll ask Papa's driver to pick up my vehicle. Because I don't want to go back to the office tonight, alone."
Sandy gave me an idea, just to keep Alexa away from Brian, "How am I supposed to accompany you, baby?"
Alexa's face looked wryly flinched, "No! Because Mr. Baby is still here. So don't expect me to leave it!"
To be honest, Sandy was getting curious. He has asked his family's bodyguards to follow Alexa as well as Brian today. However, there were no reports of disturbing his thoughts, as the younger brother spent a lot of time at Stefan's residence.
Long enough they spend the night together, with small talk about business also see the joy of Alexa with Sandy who joked together.
Brian clucked in awe, seeing the familiarity of the young girl very familiar with Sandy. Nothing made him suspicious of Sandy's affection for Alexa.
"It looks like Alexa does deserve more attention than a young man like Sandy ..."
.
.
The wall clock shows at 06:00 Singapore time. Brian's room alarm went off very loudly looking at the right side indicating that his beloved wife was still sleeping next to him.
Not much to say, Brian rushed to the bathroom before performing his morning ritual of chatting lightly with Cua while having breakfast together.
In just 20 minutes, Brian came out of the bathroom looking at the nurse cleaning the body of his wife who could only lie down.
Brian sat down beside Cua, kissing the back of his wife's hand and saying, "Today I have a visit to our partner's company in Rome, dear. May you stay healthy until I return. I love you so much, Cua."
Soft smooth hands that used to look fresh, now it looks stiff, even looks very thin even can only hold tightly to Brian's fingers.
As Brian spoke, tears continued to flow from the corner of his eyes with his mouth agape as if he wanted to talk but could not reveal anything.
Cua's paralysis had already occurred since he had fallen in a shopping mall, which left the body of the oriental woman in shock. The buttocks that crashed, making himself speechless did not budge. The hospital, has done any action for his recovery, but it is precisely the brain shrinkage that he must suffer.
Various ways that Brian did so that the wife can talk, or just call his name with the call 'honey' ... but all that he never got after the various types of treatment he did.
Brian grabbed a bowl of chicken porridge as usual, evaporating little by little the mouth of the still open Cua.
Long enough Brian saw, Cua swallowed his food, then told him about his daily life.
"Darling, what do you want me to bring? My departure is only three days. I want you to always video call with the help of the sisters, right? I really want to spend some time with you tonight, but I have to finish my job, so that there is no gap in our business with Arlan," he said, continuing to feed food into the wife's mouth.
Cua's hands seemed to move, unnoticed by Brian. Nothing meaningful, the established man continues to invite his beloved wife to communicate like a romantic partner.
Tears simply flowed, implying that Cua wanted to convey something to Brian ...
"I want to take you, find my daughter, baby ..." Only that sentence would be spoken by Cua, but it was powerless to do so.
