The Heart of Vania
Expressing Feelings

A week after the birth of the successor of the Pradipta Family was held a big and lively event. The back garden where the placenta is planted is decorated to welcome the birth of Baby Zean. According to the Chief Servant, this is the first time in history since Mrs Rianti - the mother of the Young Master - died, the main residence of the Pradipta Family held a large party or event that invited many people. For about thirty years this house was so quiet and cold, but now the atmosphere is so cheerful and warm.

Dominated by a combination of light blue bone white, the garden is transformed into a beautiful garden party location. Three grand super big tents were erected also equipped with a children's play area and children corner so that the children brought and the invitees can also feel the happiness of the owner of the event. Do not ask about the menu, The Lady of the House really likes food, so it is certain that the food and drinks available will not disappoint.

The fatherly aura around the figure of the President of Pradipta Corp., Baby Zean is always in his carry when greeting invited guests while Kak Litha will only get a holding opportunity if Baby Zean wants to suckle. The congratulations and prayers of all those present were heard incessantly, including some religious leaders who were invited to pray for Zeandra Putra Pradipta, my handsome and adorable niece.

"Look! My baby looks a lot like me, doesn't it? His good looks had indeed been seen from birth, it was because his father was also handsome from birth. Her hair was also very dense and her skin was as reddish white as I used to be."

The sentence was repeatedly echoed by Brother-in-law whenever anyone greeted him, "What is that big brother of the strings?" whisper in Litha's ear.

"My husband is narcissistic, but it's been growing ever since Zean was born. Huufft ..."

"You're Dad too, Ray. I'm happy, hope your grumpy nature doesn't go down to him" said Kak Bona patting Brother-in-law's shoulder while looking at Baby Zean.

"Oh, Zean is awake. But I'm a little scared of her eyes, Tha. Why doesn't she have her mother's eyes?" muttered Brother Ninda who made the Mother Baby laugh.

Brother Ninda was right, my niece's eyes were full of vigilance, hahaha ...

"Still a baby, she can already intimidate, hiii ..." Bona's sister shuddered in response to the muttering of her lover.

"Why does everyone expect my son's nature to be the same as his mother's? Does no one want him like me who is handsome, strong, authoritative and feared?" brother-in-law complains followed by his wife's naughtiness.

Not long after, all attention was paid to the two box cars that had just entered the main house yard, directly parked in front of one of the tents.

"Master, ma'am, these are all gifts from London. Mr. Firza wants to make a video call after all the gifts have been received" Mr. Is explained.

I was amazed to see so many gifts sent from the European continent. It turned out that Mr. Firza was very generous, although far away did not forget to pay great attention to his nephew.

Various gift packages wrapped nicely with different size shapes, "The big one must be a doll, Brother?" I said pointing to the largest parcel of my height just dropped from the truck.

"Know where? Masa Zean was given a big doll" Litha squinted her eyes.

"Especially if not a doll, so big ... If not a big teddy bear, a human-shaped robot with the latest Artificial Intelligence."

"Newborn baby, I'm given a robot. Usually it's toiletries, diapers, clothes or–"

"That's the gift of the people in the village, Brother, plus a few cans of sweetened condensed milk for the Mother, hahaha ...."

"You're arrogant, Nia. It will be Miss Pradipta."

"Hayn ... Who wants to be Miss Pradipta? Brother's husband Mr. Forcing, if it's not forced, there's no way I'll accept it."

Brother Litha chuckled, "Hey! That's my nickname for him other than Young Master Congkak."

I was wide open to hear it, thank God that Brother Litha used to hate Young Master, now he is the man she loves the most and loves himself.

"Darling, I'll call Firza, would you like to say hello?" Sister-in-law will do a videocall after all the gifts are placed in one of the special tents for the gifts of the Little Young Master.

Brother Litha nodded, "Yes."

"Then I enjoy the food first, Brother," I said pointing to the food served.

So beautiful party decorations, everything is arranged so fittingly according to the portion. I can't bear to not capture every moment of this. I took a cell phone out of my dress pocket and took a picture of it.

Czechoslovak.

Czechoslovak.

Czechoslovak.

Cek–

Suddenly the look in my eyes caught the figure of the bespectacled and dimpled woman who was approaching Assistant Yan. I don't know who the girl is, but from the traits that Litha Kak once mentioned, I'm sure she is dr. Viviane.

I took a position as close as possible, turning my back to Assistant Yan to hear what they were talking about. Geez, even though I had promised to eliminate this bad habit but now that my heart clearly rejected it, I wanted to know what their conversation was about.

"Good day Doctor, how are you?" greet Assistant Yan gave a glass of Mocktail to his interlocutor.

"Well," the doctor replied briefly with a smile of her sweet dimples.

"In the near future the doctor will be questioned as a witness in court. Hope everything goes well."

"Yes. May my testimony incriminate the punishment of that depraved man."

The man nodded with a sip of the drink in his glass until half was left, "Doctor came alone?"

"Yes. Who do you think I'm coming with?"

"Your engagement."

Glug.

Almost the glass in my hand came off. What strategy was Assistant Yan playing? Why is my heart riled up for a moment? Moreover, the doctor stopped drinking the contents of his glass that almost swallowed. Is he hoping for something? Look– her face is tense and doubtful.

" ... "

The atmosphere became awkward.

"Ku– I think the invitation is only for the concerned. A– I didn't know I could bring a friend."

Assistant Yan chuckled, "Friend? Haha ... You're so mean Doctor– you should have invited your fiancee, not your friend."

" ... "

Sh*it!

"I like you, Doctor."

BLAMME.

My heart rumbled to hear the expression of his feelings. The man consciously admitted without the slightest hesitation until a sense of disappointment surfaced into my heart.

"Well! What's?"

"I'm sorry, if my statement just surprised you. Don't be burdened, Doctor ... I knew the Doctor was getting married and I knew the Doctor wasn't a woman I could have even if I fought for her. I just want to try to let go of you by admitting my feelings directly in front of the person, so there will be no regrets later."

What the fuck! He's plagiarizing my way! The way I let go of feelings. He knew what he was doing was getting harder and harder to forget. Why would I know? Because I'm like that! Damn it!

Dr. Vivian's face paled, her pushy eyes holding back tears. I don't know what he's feeling. My female instinct says that she is between happy and sad. Happy because he also has the same feelings as the man who just expressed his feelings and sad because the man he is going to marry is not the man he wants to be.

It's ridiculous! How ridiculous! Is he thinking of having both? She is crazy!

Without speaking, the doctor ran away from Assistant Yan like a loser who ran as the war progressed.

"Doctor!"

"You eavesdropping, huh?"

Suddenly the sound from behind shocked me, almost the drink in the glass spilled.

"Mmc ... Eavesdropping? Eavesdropping what? I don't know what you mean?" I argue without turning around pretending not to understand.

I better go now!

"ah! That*al!" I said slowly as he clutched my arm.

"You can see I'm not the loser you call me, right, miss?" his mouth turned me around until our faces were facing each other, only two centimeters of his nose were away from my forehead.

" ..."

I'm confused what to say. Jakunnya moved to swallow his own saliva while staring fixedly at my face– like holding something back. Nah! Is he going to try kissing me again? I have to do something ...

"Oh yeah? Expressing feelings should be a seriousness of heart, not because it does not accept to be called a loser ... It even proves himself to be a real loser" I said, raising a corner of his lips and looking at him with the tip of his tail, a humbling look, "It's best for Mr. Assistant to learn to Young Master how to convey my heart," I connected again and immediately passed from before him after removing his grip on my arm.

"YOU!" the man was emotional.

I smiled, laughing contentedly in my heart, let alone hearing his angry roar blaring in the air until Brother-in-law approached him. Haha ....

"What are you thinking?" asked Mas Rayyendra disperse all my theories while breastfeeding Zean.

"Mas, do you believe that the one who said Woeful Moon was Serena?" I asked my husband back.

"If Nia says it's Serena Wijaya, it means she's the one. And today the Wijaya Family company has been acquired by Pradipta Corp." he replied lightly.

HUH!

My eyes rounded not believing what I heard, "Why acquired?"

"Company expansion to City A."

My eyes squinted at my husband's handsome face, looking for an honest answer there. He stuttered, smiling wrongly.

"Eh– really .. company expansion in City A. Kan, I told you that I wanted to strengthen Pradipta Corp. there. This is one of the actions."

"What a coincidence with the acquisition of the Wijaya Family company?"

"He– uh."

"Mas."

I sharpened my eyes again. He wanted to play secrets with me apparently.

"OK, okay. I admitted it on purpose, "he replied giving up.

"Why?"

"Because he hurt Vania. Thank goodness I only make calculations with his company, not with his people directly," he replied straightforwardly.

I'm aghast, is this dear to my brother?

"Honey, I am the head of the Pradipta family, and now Vania in the public eye is Miss Pradipta. No one can underestimate it let alone scold it with hurtful mentions. This is my way of protecting my family members so that others do not behave insolently, if I do not show my fangs, the big name Pradipta will not be respected anymore," my husband explained at length.

Yes, since all Vania documents added Pradipta name behind her full name, officially Vania is no longer my husband's sister-in-law but Miss Pradipta as the adopted sister of Young Master Pradipta. The treatment of people to him is no longer the same, so respectful and maintaining attitude.

"Yes, but are you sure Serena's the one?" many doubt.

"Who else would it be if it wasn't the bully girl? Nia also said it clearly even though she asked us not to retaliate."

"But my hunch says he's not the one."

Turn my husband's eyes squeaking. Ah, why is he getting handsome with such eyes, never tired of me looking at his beautiful face. Luckily, Zean followed his father's physical footsteps a lot.

"Why do I know who said it wasn't a woman but a man" I said, changing Zean's position to the other one to continue drinking. This baby never seems satisfied and greedy, his hands always control my chest.

"Nia went to school in the girls' dorm and never hung out with any male friends. Your gut's exaggerating Lith."

"Hopefully, Mum. But try to remember ... Nia's change of attitude towards Assistant Yan is getting more distant now, whereas Nia used to love him so much that she became the founder of Shortpink Fans Club."

"Do you want to tell me the real person said Nia was like Abyan's bad month?" asked Mas Rayyendra in a stifled voice.

I nodded slowly and hesitantly, after all this was just a hunch that had no proof whatsoever.

"Based on Abyan's nature, he never cursed someone if not really upset. He's the most patient man I've ever known, '" she said.

I confirmed his opinion, Assistant Yan is not a person who is easily provoked by emotions. He was very good at self-control, inversely to my husband.

"But–"

Suddenly his words were doubtful. I was getting closer to looking at the face that I always missed when every day we met especially after I gave birth to her son, the fatherly aura made her a hot daddy. Halah ... What am I talking about!

"It could be that what you're saying is true. Their attitude is not what it used to be, Vania more often avoids if there is an Abyan."

"What would I do if Abyan said it?"

"Of course he has to take responsibility for his words regardless of whether he's my assistant or best friend, but I have to make sure of that first."

"If there were still Mr. Sas, I'd find it easy."

My husband smiled at me and stroked my head, "You miss him?"

I nodded, the middle-aged man named Sasmita was my main savior and supporter in the time of the slump and there was no one beside me. Whether because of Grandma's orders or not but her sincerity I can feel, especially when remembering how to die for protecting my life and the life of my baby– I feel very guilty.

"Why did she drink her milk for so long?" said Mas Rayyendra changed the topic so that I was not sad by rubbing the cheek of Zean who was breastfeeding, his tiny hand holding the source of the drink.

I chuckled to find my husband swallowing saliva many times. Now his favorite area in my body is controlled by a selfish little creature. As if not willing to share, Zean would cry loudly if pu*ting payu*daraku detached from his small mouth, even though he was asleep.

"Egoisnya the same as you, Mas," I said smilingly staring at the motion of our son's mouth when drinking ASI.

Mas Rayyendra could only sigh deeply, resignedly. Haha ....
