Flashbacks*

When Elena was busy looking at the staple neatly lined up in one of the vending booths, she was too busy to realize that Siska and Tiara were no longer behind her.

While Siska was busy with one of the stalls selling clothes he saw. The torture that never came out especially to the mall like a teenage girl is generally amazed by the line of clothes as well as the latest women's pants displayed on the figure of the shirt. Until the girl did not realize that the Tiara she was leading had escaped and gone somewhere.

Apparently Tiara felt bored while Siska looked engrossed herself. Tiara repeatedly called Siska to return to Elena, fearing that they would get lost, but Siska ignored her words and kept looking at the clothes inside the character.

Until finally Tiara found herself out of Siska's supervision because the little girl was suddenly attracted to the children's toy salesman who passed around them.

Tiara, who is interested in the Barbie doll on display, follows the toy salesman to the side of the highway, seeing her cross the street made Tiara also want to cross into the street but she did not know and did not understand.

Until then, Elena realized that Siska and Tiara were no longer beside her shouting and looking for her, but Elena could only manage to find Siska who was both panicked because Tiara was not next to them.

Looking and asking around, until finally there was a father who recognized the girl in his characteristics mentioned Elena, until in the end there was a father who recognized the girl in his character, the fathers told him that Tiara had gone to the highway.

And how surprised Elena was when she got there to see Tiara was already in the middle of the road, without looking left and right again Elena approached her about to take the boy without realizing that a truck was lurking towards them.

Elena involuntarily hugged Tiara's body tightly she who was speachless instantly froze and only closed her eyes further tightening her embrace on Tiara's small body until not realizing someone had saved them both.

Flashback off*

"Elena!"

The man beside her exclaimed, making Elena who was hugging Tiara with great fear after the almost fateful incident of being hit by a truck now start to wake up. Elena had not realized the man who had saved her and Tiara until finally the woman turned her head in tremendous shock until her body was fixated on seeing the figure of a man who was already standing in front of her at this moment.

"You!" Elena spontaneously stood up clearing her body from the street dust as well as helping Tiara stand up, the little girl seemed to grimace due to her scratched knees.

Erick's face turned radiant, his lips were pinched a sweet smile that the man could hold for a while, he was too hyperbole because finally could find the wife who is now facing him.

But Elena reacted another way, the look on her face was grimacing and cynical. Of course he didn't expect Erick to be in town, but whatever it was, Elena didn't want to see him. The wound of his heart that he desperately hid although he could not be cured somehow back gaping wide and the feeling of tightness came again making him not want to look at the man's face for long. Even in the corner of his heart with insolent still stored longing for the man.

"Come, Tiara we're back." ask Elena to leave quickly from there.

"But Elena .. We must first thank that uncle, he saved us" Tiara said.

"It's okay. Don't thank him." Elena. The tightness in his chest grew even higher.

"But ... "

"Udah, let's get Tiara out of here!" joked Elena had exhausted her patience.

It felt like being in a close radius and realizing it shared the same oxygen as the man who had hurt him, fed him up.

"Come Tiara!" regardless of Erick's words, with her eyes turning dim Elena was forced to pull Tiara's hand and lead her to leave immediately.

But Tiara continued to look at Erick, the seven-year-old boy as if he understood what the two people in front of him were feeling right now.

Suddenly Tiara pulled Elena's grip on her hand, the burly boy ran up to Erick with his innocent look.

Erickson frowned, Tiara seemed to be twitching.

Not wanting the little girl to misinterpret what was going on, as much as possible Erick neutralized the look of his face turned smiling and sat crouching to align himself with the height of the girl.

"Thank you uncle." with still a flat face and plain Tiara said so to Erick.

"Sama-sama." Erick replied, stroking his smile for Tiara then gently rubbing the snow-white boy's head.

"Your name, Tiara right?" ask Erick then. Tiara nodded enthusiastically.

"Tiaras. Can uncle ask you one thing as a thank you gift?"

"What is uncle?" Tiara now began to smile broadly showing her adorable milk teeth.

"Please take care of Elena's sister? for uncle, can you?" Erick deliberately directed his gaze at Elena even though the woman was seen turning her face away, screeching.

"Can uncle. Tiara will always take care of Elena." Tiara further widened her smile.

"Smart boy." once again, Erick stroked the little girl's hair not forgetting to try her soft, slightly nosy cheeks.

Tiara then returned to Elena after listening to Erick's request. The man then stood up as his eyes followed Elena's steps with both hands he buried into his pants pocket.

A moment after Tiara approached her immediately Elena pulled her arm.

"Tiara, you don't listen to her requests" Elena said.

"Why Elen's sister?" ask Tiara.

"Because it doesn't matter. And besides Tiara don't talk to strangers, because no one knows the person's true nature and behavior." - Elena as her eyes glanced at Erick.

At that time Erik also began to realize if the suffering and pain that he accidentally gave Elena indirectly made the woman now turn to hate him.

"Let's go, let's go" continued Elena, then he and Tiara quickly left the area as well now leaving Erick with a sense of regret and fragility in his heart.

Erick re-enforced his body then let out a heavy sigh, he crossed his arms in front of his chest as his eyes continued to monitor Elena's back which started to drift away. The highlight on both of its neutrals dimmed and slowly softened.

"You may have hated me, but I could never let you go, Elena. Maybe it's time I started fighting for our love ... " Erick looked ahead.

" ... Because what's mine won't let me go, baby."
