THE CHILDISH MAFIA THIEVES HEARTS
29. FEAR OF LOSING YOU

This morning was a bit different from the other mornings for Hera. Deon, his young master had woken up first before he came to wake him up. And also, Deon no longer wanted to be bathed by her. He would only help Deon get dressed and dress his little Master up a bit to make him look even more handsome.

The change not only happened to Deon, but also to Tama. The handsome man who was Hera's husband seemed to be friendlier than usual. He even asked Hera to have breakfast with them again, as happened at dinner yesterday.

But it seems Hera misunderstood the change in attitude of the father and son who became her employer. Hera felt that she was no longer needed. Does that mean he'll be kicked out of there soon?

If it used to be, maybe Hera would be very happy to imagine that she would be able to be free from there. But not for now. She had already fallen in love with her kind, considerate, affectionate, and adorable young master. Hera loved Deon like her own son. What if he's really kicked out of there? That means he won't be able to meet Deon again right? Hera was really afraid that would happen. Even her tears trickled down imagining that frightening thing.

Deon looked at Hera who kept looking down. She did not understand why Hera did not touch her food at all. Shouldn't he be happy. His work was already reduced, not as much as before. And his father doesn't hate him anymore. What happened to Hera?

"You okay?" Deon asked as he clasped Hera's hand with his small hand.

Hera gasped in shock feeling the sudden touch of Deon's hand.

"Yes, young master needs something?" Hera asked as she looked at Deon. And at once Deon could see tears welling up in Hera's eyes.

Deon put a spoon in his hand, then switched to cupping Hera's face that looked sad.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Tanya Deon was attentive.

Getting that kind of attention is so heart touching. It felt like Hera was crying in the arms of the five-year-old. But Hera tries not to cry in front of Deon and also Mr. Tama. He tried to force his smile to cover up the sadness that was now filling the recesses of his heart.

"There's nothing young master. I'm fine."Hera answered with a smile.

Mr. Tama who noticed their interaction could see that Hera's smile was forced. But what made the girl suddenly become so sad? Did anyone hurt her?

Although he wanted to know the reason Hera was sad, but Mr. Tama did not react at all. He's not like Deon who's so considerate of Hera. Mr. Tama is a cool person, and seems cooler to women. Maybe because all this time he never had a relationship with any woman. So he does not know how to treat a woman properly and properly.

"You're uncomfortable here? How about we go to the park?" Tawar Deon's. The little boy tried to comfort Hera who was sad, no matter what. Nothing happened to Hera yesterday. Then why was he suddenly so sad now? Deon really doesn't understand.

"No need young master. I just flickered. Really." Hera tried to reason.

"You sure?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Alright, then let's eat. Finish your breakfast!" Deon's orders.

Deon doesn't want to force Hera. Let it be, if later Hera is calmer, then she will ask again. For the time being, let Hera enjoy her food first in peace.

But Mr. Tama's response was very much different.

"Servant."

"Yes Sir?"

"Aren't you guys cleaning this dining room? Why so much dust?"

"Already sir, we've cleaned up everything."

"Then why..."

Mr. Tama did not continue his sentence when he saw Deon and Hera look at him. Deon doesn't understand what happened to his father. Where did he see a lot of dust? The dining table and all the cutlery they use are very clean and sterile. Is it because Hera said she was flickering? It doesn't make any sense.

"Oh, forget it." Mr. Tama immediately told the servant to leave. Now he feels awkward because Deon continues to look at him suspiciously. But Mr. Tama just pretended not to know. He remained focused on continuing his meal calmly.

Deon and Hera decide to eat too. They enjoyed breakfast in silence. No one's making a sound. They are busy with their own thoughts.

"It's so embarrassing."
