"I'm sorry!" sherina shouted with a blushing face. He immediately turned around in panic, even squeezing the clothes cloth in front of his chest.
My heart is crazy, yes! Why even thump at a time like this?! Why am I ashamed? It's not my fault, I've entered with his permission. But, why would he even welcome me in this half-naked state?
"Sorry! I didn't mean it this way! I thought you were Uncle Will! That's why I let you in! W-wait a minute! I'll get dressed first!" Vicky was in the fog, he immediately picked up his clothes and dressed as fast as he could.
On one hand, Sherina still turned her back on Vicky. He was increasingly embarrassed when he heard the noise of a closet whose door was slammed, opened and closed.
Oh, my God, how should I? I want to get out of here very quickly, this atmosphere is very strange. Vicky seemed to be embarrassed by the one just now. She just finished taking a shower, I actually came at an inopportune time.
"I'm done, you can turn around!" vicky said with a nervous tone.
"Ehmm .. okay," Sherina replied with a nod of her head. Slowly turning around, he looked at Vicky who was currently dressed in pajamas. However, the way to wear a nightgown that looks wrong, even the hair that has been shampooed has not been dried. There was still water dripping down from the top of his head.
"Annu ... Vicky, you're wrongly buttoning your shirt" Sherina said, pointing with her index finger.
"Eh?" Vicky lowered his head, and it was true that he had misplaced the buttons on his shirt. Again he felt ashamed, making this kind of mistake from being too hasty. As soon as possible he fixed the buttons on his shirt.
"Don't hurry, you relax, I didn't come here for urgent matters. You can also dry your hair first, only then can we talk" Sherina said with an awkward smile. His heart felt bad for making Vicky like this because of his presence.
"All right, then wait a minute! Emm .. You can sit there!" pinta Vicky pointed to the sofa near the television.
"Yes." Yeah." Sherina nodded, then sat down at the spot as Vicky asked. His eyes did not go unnoticed to pay attention to the entire corner of the room. Only this first time did she set foot in her legal husband's room, she was stunned by all the matching items and decorations. This luxurious and well-equipped room can be said to be comparable to the presidential suite in a star hotel.
So like this taste Vicky, monochrome color in this room gives the impression of classy elegance. It fits with his personality.
On one hand, Vicky quickly tidied himself up. After she finished drying her hair, she immediately caught up with Sherina who was already sitting waiting on the sofa. For a moment, the atmosphere between them was only an awkward silence. Neither Vicky nor Sherina, no one wants to start a conversation.
"Ehem! So, now explain why you're looking for me!" pinta Vicky without looking Sherina in the eye. He was unable to look at this stern woman's gaze. Because in his mind, still imagined about the embarrassing incident earlier.
Oh, my God, why am I like this? Sherina's status is my wife, let alone seeing me who only wears a towel, actually she has the right to see me naked though. But, this is the first time for me to show a body in front of a woman. I'm still not used to this.
"I'm ... here because I want to talk about Velix" Sherina said with a little hesitation.
"The velix? What's up with him?" vicky asked with a confused look.
"Look, I haven't told you about this in the homeroom this afternoon. I found Velix alone by the lake. There, he told me something. About why he often makes trouble, actually .. he admitted that he was deliberately looking for trouble."
"What?! Intentionally looking for trouble! I thought he was really naughty!" vicky's nagging with an annoyed face.
"No! Please listen to my story until it's over!" refute Sherina. He doesn't want Vicky to get more and more misunderstood about his sister.
"Okay, then explain it to me! For reasons that make sense!" sue Vicky, who then sieged. As if waiting for a good explanation from Sherina.
"As you all know, you and your mother both always complained that Velix was a bad boy. But, Vicky ... Still he is still a child, he must have had a reason why he deliberately did that. And Velix told me he made trouble for wanting you or your mom to come visit him occasionally in the dorm. Simply put, all Velix needs is enough attention from his family."
"...." - ".Vicky didn't say a word. Her mouth felt muddled, she began to ponder what Sherina had said. Until now, this was the first time he had realized such a fatal mistake. Letting her little sister feel less cared for, which leads to creating problems.
"I. .. don't mean to ignore Velix, but I have my own busyness. Even if I have free time, I don't know what to do to spend time with him. Maybe because of our age distance, so I don't quite understand what he needs" said Vicky with a downcast look. He had already introspect himself about the flaws that existed in him.
Suddenly Vicky looked up, and then looked into Sherina's eyes. "Sherina, do you have the right solution for Velix?"
"Eh? Are you seriously asking me?" sherina asked in disbelief.
"Emm .. If you ask me what I think, I will say. I feel that the core of Velix's problem is his nature, he's a jolly, freedom-loving boy. But all this time he lived in a dorm. So, I think it's good that you just get Velix out of the dorm! Let Velix go back to this residence!"
"That's your solution?" vicky asked as if he was not satisfied.
"L-yes, that's my solution. Maybe ... You are not suitable, because living in a dormitory also has its own benefits for Velix. He can focus more on learning, being independent, and doing more interaction with his friends. It's just that playing time for children is also no less important. Just imagine he had to study in the morning at school, the afternoon was just finished, and after that he had to go back to the dormitory to study or follow other activities."
"Vicky, please consider this. I know that I'm just an outsider, I have no right to interfere with how your family educates Velix. But, I want Velix not to be always moody. He told me himself that he doesn't like living in a dorm. And, there's actually one more thing ...." Sherina was silent for a moment, she hesitated a little to continue her words.
After taking a deep breath, he again said, "Velix lost his father since childhood. That is, he does not get enough affection from a father. All that's left is her mother and you, her brother. And now, she was forced to stay in the dormitory, which further made her lose the atmosphere of family warmth. Velix it, he actually .. misses the house."
Sherina no longer spoke, she felt sorry for saying it all. Feelings of what experienced by Velix is not much different from him. It's true that Sherina went through a happy childhood. But when his mother was gone, all that happiness was gone. He lives in a cruel family environment, which even now continues to haunt him.
Just one reason Sherina had, she didn't want Velix to have the same bad memories she had. Living the days without the warmth and harmony of the family, it will be the deepest wounds that are very vulnerable. That was why he spoke at length in front of Vicky. Hoping that with what he did this, it might bring something good to his sweet sister-in-law.
"Hhhh ...." Vicky breathed a heavy sigh. Without looking at Sherina's face, she said, "Suggestions from you I'll consider. If there's nothing else you want to say, you can leave now."
"Well, thank you for taking the time to listen to me." Sherina smiled faintly, then got up from the sofa and immediately came out of Vicky's room.
As for Vicky, he who is now alone can only lean his body that feels tired on the sofa. Staring at the white ceiling of the room, he muttered, "I miss the house .. apparently that's what Velix felt."

The night quickly passed, the sun shone and the day changed. As usual, the Bashara residence had breakfast together. It's just, there's one thing a little different. Sherina looked tasteless, she felt a little dizzy. Since there was so much she thought about, she finally excused herself to return to her room.
Ariana and Vicky both finished their breakfast. Suddenly Ariana broke the silence by saying, "Vicky, how are you doing?"
"Ah, it's normal. Everything is still in my control. The company has been doing well lately as well. I don't have to worry about anything" replied Vicky, who then sipped a little water.
"Good, you look like your father. Truly someone who is reliable!" Ariana smiled with satisfaction. Because he knows how much profit will be obtained if his family company is in good condition.
"Oh yeah, is today a free mom?"
"Hm? Yes, quite leisurely, today mom no event gather together with friends. Why why?"
"Home time, I'm planning on taking Mom to Velix's school."
"Ck, I guess what. Yesterday you ran out of there, why go there again today? Velix is already a big boy, he's not a fussy kind of kid. You do not need to come there often to spoil your sister," said Ariana with a lazy tone.
"I went there to get Velix home, because I felt like Velix should just stay home" Vicky replied with a flat face.
"What?! Why do you make such a decision?! You and mom agreed to let Velix stay in the dorm. This was all for his own good too! Why did you suddenly change your mind?!" asked Ariana who felt shocked at the same time did not match Vicky's decision.
"I changed my mind because I realized what Velix needed most right now. Yesterday Sherina and I both went to school, and I realized that Velix really misses the atmosphere of the house!" vicky replied again with great emphasis.
"Curtain, Sherina again, Sherina again! Because of her, now you're brave against mom! You're changing, Vicky! Listen to mother carefully, Sherina came to this house as the victim of the curse! Don't be so easily influenced by him!"
"I don't care what Mom says! What's clear is that my decision to bring Velix home won't change!" asserted Vicky who then immediately left the dining room.
"Damn ...!" as Ariana was very upset, even her body to the point of shaking. Though it was still morning, but his mood had already been made a mess.
Can't, can't keep going! The longer I've been threatened, the more Vicky has been consumed by Sherina's incitement. He won't listen to me anymore. I can't let this go on! I had to devise a plan so that the two of them would stay away from each other!
