Stepmom Cold Bed
Choose silence

The journey left the project location completely shrouded in awkwardness. On the boat, Maureen chose to sit in front, adjacent to the fisherman while Byan in the back. Although his gaze was to enjoy the beauty of the vast ocean but his focal point was still one: the back of the woman who was behind him.

Dita is still busy with her busyness recording their every trip. Occasionally he accidentally perpetuates expressions of Byan and Maureen that are difficult to explain. I don't know what happened to these two people that obviously they haven't talked to each other since they had lunch.

Riswan and the male staff are busy talking about work, it seems like he is teaching some things to the young man he will teach as his successor later. The name of this young man is Wiki.

The journey of forty-five minutes was long. Fortunately, this natural beauty can be a consolation for Maureen who is feeling the turmoil. The incident he had with Byan this afternoon made him feel guilty. But on the other hand, he felt the warmth of the feeling that Byan was trying to show.

No he denied that Maureen's feelings carried along and made him dare to admit the feeling that he had the same feelings as Byan.

Is this a mistake? I don't know, Maureen doesn't even know exactly what wonderful mistakes she made with Byan. Maybe because it's too much and too much.

“Please, Mr.”

Riswan reached out his hand to help Byan get off the boat. The same thing Wiki did to help Dita and Maureen. Dita extended her hand happily but Maureen chose to go down on her own with a half jump. He avoids the helping of a man whose age is only two years older than he is.

“I've prepared a room for you sir, next to the young mistress. Room is not too big but comfortable enough to rest.”

“In the night you can see the colorful light of the lights on the beach as well as the sound of music that invites us to party.” Riswan shook his legs as if he was dancing.

There was a reason why Riswan had not stopped talking like a parrot, trying to ward off the awkwardness between his young master and mistress.

As with the indifferent Maureen, Byan also ignored Riswan's chant. With his wheelchair he entered the room along with Maureen who entered his private room. Their rooms were next to each other and the door was compactly closed, leaving three people pecking at the door.

“It's okay, maybe the young Mr and Mrs are exhausted. So let's go into each room,” said Riswan who is trying to be a mediator.

They went into their rooms and rested. Maureen laid her body on the bed in a sideways position. He looked at the big window in front of him.

Byan sat on his wheelchair, facing a large window, enjoying a view of the clear blue sky with a hint of cloud cover.

Riswan and Wiki are still discussing work while Dita is engrossed in editing videos. The time they have right now is really what they enjoy in their own way.

“Tring!”

A message entered Maureen's phone and revealed Dita's name as the sender. Maureen read it immediately.

“So, I edited the video. I made two videos, one video visit and another video of us. Try brother check yes...” Write Dita.

“Okey, I'll see. Thanks, Ta.”

Maureen played one by one the videos Dita made. It starts with a video of a work visit, where the opening is a trip to the fast-paced island and is made aesthetic with flashes of rapidly changing sky colors.

A summary of the photo that displays the progress of the resort development project, complete with localized local residents. The pier they visited as well as the conservation area and its scenic journey led to the place. Dita also inserts videos while on the market and the results are very satisfying.

Maureen smiled proudly at the video made by Dita.

The second video is a video that will later be inserted in the promotional media after the resort is finished. The video recorded their journey since boarding the plane, then taking a boat with good details and the main object was Maureen.

Although only showing his shoulders, or fingers flick occasionally Maureen figure walking on the white sand, making this video looks interesting. The bonus is Maureen's pretty smile at the end of the video before her palm closes the camera.

Maureen smiled to herself at Dita's work. The girl was multitalent.

“The video is good, I like it. Thanks yaa...” Maureen sent the message to Dita.

“Sama-sama brother. But, can I have the video up? I want all the promo service making mini vlog or clip. Later I tagged sister's name as her talent. How?”

Maureen thought for a while. They try to consider the risks that may arise. It doesn't feel too big a risk because he's not an artist. What's wrong if this time he helps Dita?

“Bby,” that one word Maureen sent to Dita.

“Waaahhh thanks a lot brother. Momo is the best! Later malem we mantai yaakk, I will treat. How?”

Maureen smiled slightly but her expression changed after reading Dita's message. Not at the invitation of the mantas but on a nickname called Dita. “Momo” nickname that his late parents always used first.

If he remembered the name, Maureen's heart melted. It was sad to remember that he now lives alone. When he is at the peak of his success and can buy whatever he wants, he must enjoy it alone. Then, if one day he managed to seize all of Anggoro's property, with whom will he share?

Maureen bowed lethargic. He began to be confused and hesitant about his choice. Will getting all of Anggoro's possessions make him feel satisfied and happy?

****

At seven o'clock in the evening, Dita was already standing at Maureen's doorstep. He knocked and rang the bell several times. I can't wait to get down and enjoy my last night on the beach.

Joking and laughing with Maureen, looking for a bule single for friends to have fun and do other things that might be fun.

Long time no answer, Dita decided to call Maureen. He worries that Maureen is asleep and forgets his promise.

“I'm still in the shower!” maureen shouted as she answered her phone.

No more answers from Maureen and Dita decided to go down. We got into the elevator and some people joined in. Some of them are foreigners.

Dita shifted to make room while paying attention to one of the attractive looking European men. His figure is high with brownish skin, it looks like his skin starts to dark because of frequent sunbathing or doing activities on the beach. I don't know why Dita was so interested in that guy.

“Ding!” elevator arrives at loby. We immediately got off with the other elevator users. He deliberately nudged the man a little, in order to attract the attention of the opposite sex. The man looked at Dita, though,

“Sorry,” he said while nodding politely.

“It’s okay!” Dita pointed her thumb at the bule man and the man just smiled making Dita chuckle with anxiety alone.

“Where are you, Ta?” someone's voice was heard greeting Dita.

“Eh,” Dita looks surprised when it turns out that the one who greeted her was the Wiki that came with Riswan and of course Byan.

“Goodnight.” Dita nodded politely at the three people. Trio of jellyfish across ages, thought Dita.

“Night Mba Dita. Where are you going? How neat?” ask the curious Riswan.

“Oh this sir, I want to hang out with Maureen. But Maureen's sister's still in the shower. So I'm waiting here sir.”

“Where to hang out?” Riswan represents Byan's curiosity.

“Not far from here sir. Coincidentally there is a cozy cafe by the beach.”

“Nah, that's Maureen's sister,” exclaimed Dita when she saw Maureen coming out of the elevator.

Byan looked at the beautiful woman who was walking towards him. He wore linen toad pants with a croptop model top that showed a slightly open belly and wrapped in a jacket that was not fully resleted.

Byan's chest was suddenly claustrophobic about imagining Maureen to the entertainment venue in such clothes. What if someone touches it?

“Malem kak Maureen Sapa Dita when the woman was in front of him.

“Malem,” Maureen smiles thinly at Dita but not at Byan.

“Kak Maureen is so beautiful? I became insecure.” Dita nudged Maureen's arm on purpose.

“You are also beautiful. Hot!” Maureen whispered a little in Dita's ear.

“So there's a handsome bule, want me to be tempted. Brother Maureen don't whip ya.” The girl whispered back.

Maureen nodded in agreement.

“So, Mistress wants to go to the beach?” kepo Riswan asked again.

“Iya, I'm going to the beach with Dita. Where are you going?” Maureen reply with stale.

“Ke Beach,” sahut Byan with confidence.

“Hah, to the beach, Mister?” Riswan looked at Byan cluelessly. Even before meeting Maureen he said he wanted to rest in his room because he was not feeling well.

“Take my jacket, don't be long,” Byan told Wiki. The obedient wiki left immediately.

Byan looked at Maureen attentively but the woman looked ordinary. It doesn't seem to matter where Byan is going.

“Then it is, me and Dita first. Good night..” say goodbye Maureen while pulling Dita's hand.

“Goodnight, Mistress.” Only Riswan came to a close and Byan was still looking at Maureen who had passed away just like that. The woman avoided eye contact with him.

Are you still feeling upset and awkward?
