"Say, what made you come?" Sean said after he finished changing clothes.
Abust wiped his mouth with a handkerchief Salwa had prepared for Sean at the dining table in his room.
"I need your help," Abust sighed and exhaled slowly. His previously annoying-looking face now turned serious with a sharp glint of eyes.
"Help me find someone!"
"Who?"
"Catherine Wilson."
....
Sean and Abust had already descended from the stairs to the dining table, Sean was getting less excited when he saw two children who were eating very greedily like they had not been fed for a long time.
Salwa smiled to welcome her husband who had come down wearing the clothes she had prepared earlier. She pushes the chair back for Sean to occupy, but again Abust is faster by occupying the chair Salwa had reserved for her husband.
"Patience" murmured Salwa in the heart. She then pulled out another chair to be occupied by her husband.
Sean rubbed Salwa's head and ended up on the back of the neck covered in her hijab." Thank you" he said later, landing his butt on the chair. While Salwa took a seat next to her husband to make it easier for her to take food for Sean.
"Do you want to eat again? Didn't you just finish my meal upstairs?" Sean sneered at Abust without being covered up, but Abust just shrugged his shoulders while moving some dessert dishes on his plate.
Sean feeds a spoonful of food into his mouth, but Salwa clears to stop him.
"Ehem.." Sean turned to his wife who gave the code by raising both hands in a prayer position. Sean thinned his lips, smiled and followed his wife's hand and began to pray in his heart.
They also started to enjoy the dishes. Abust who first finished his meal opened his voice.
"I also want to leave them here" Abust said, looking at the twins, who are currently chasing in the back garden after finishing their breakfast.
"What, it's impossible, have you gone crazy. They will definitely be very troublesome later. Salwa is pregnant, I don't want her to be too tired to take care of these two children," Sean refuses outright Abust's desire to make Sean and Salwa as caretakers while Catherine's two children.
"Hey, you can't be cruel. Let's just say you're returning the favor, not that you ever fucked her mother."
"Uhuhk-uhuk-uhuk," Salwa immediately choked as she swallowed her food to hear Abust's shocking words.
Sean immediately grabbed a glass of water to give to Salwa, but the woman refused and chose another glass and poured water for him to drink. Sean, who had received a rejection from Salwa, immediately glanced sharply at Abust.
"You don't talk carelessly, I never do that" Sean growled at the words of his adoptive brother who couldn't see the situation.
"Geez boss, did you forget. The service was probably too perfect that you were fooled and ended up in the hospital that day." Abust unceasingly provokes making Salwa careless by herself.
BRAAAKK
Outraged, Salwa unconsciously kicked the table and placed her spoon and fork hard on the plate.
"I am full, you continue to eat" said Salwa, rising from her seat, standing up to leave the dining room.
When Salwa quickly set foot, Sean immediately caught Salwa's hand to hold him down so that his wife did not go anywhere and continued to eat. Salwa is pregnant, she hasn't eaten since morning waiting for Sean to wake up. And at this time must be very hungry stomach because he and the child they contain need adequate food intake. Salwa had to eat, but because of Abust, it seemed that Salwa did not want to eat anymore.
"Where to go, finish the food first," persuaded Sean gently, but it seemed that Sean's appeal this time did not work. Salwa violently threw out Sean's hand which held him down and then walked quickly up the stairs to get to his room.
"Damn it, you're really making a fuss," Sean snapped to Abust, who he responded by shrugging his shoulders as if innocent.
Abust is only annoyed with Catherine so he vents it to Sean. The woman did not change, she was easily invited by men and left her two children. Even Catherine's two children admitted that they were pushed by an evil man who cupped his mother into bed. What did Catherine and the man do in bed? Even they did just that in front of two innocent brats like them. Very immoral. Abust was very disappointed, he even had time to be interested and put his heart to the cheap woman.
Abust has teamed up with authorities to find Catherine on the missing persons case, however, Catherine's two children love her mother very much, and until now they have repeatedly asked Catherine whereabouts to Abust who does not know where. So Abust decides to look for Catherine until he finds her.
....
Salwa sleeps slanted curled up by hugging the bolster, her face she hides under the bolster. Still very upset by Abust's words, she knows that Sean used to sleep with a change of partners, but if she remembers how her husband's free life used to make her heart hurt. She could not hide her pain if someone brought up her husband's past.
Imagining how Sean treated her while they were having sex, and it turns out that there are many other women who have been treated the same by him makes Salwa's heart ache. It's not that he doesn't accept Sean with his past, but Salwa doesn't want it to be remembered.
However, a wife will feel hurt if she imagines her husband making out, even making love with other women, besides herself.
"Darling, are you angry?" Sean spoke carefully as he stroked Salwa's head, which was still wrapped in the veil. There was a flanging gesture Salwa made, but her face remained hidden under the bolster.
Inwardly, Sean swears rudely at Abust for making trouble by revealing past events that made Salwa angry, especially his current wife is more sensitive than ever, maybe because her pregnancy made Salwa more easily happy, sad, angry or spoiled. Even women can cry and laugh at the same time.
Sean lies on his side hugging Salwa's sleeping body behind him. He did not want the plan that he had prepared in advance to surprise his wife was a mess, it seems Sean had to fight hard to restore his wife's mood to return as usual.
He took the bolster hugged by Salwa as well as where Salwa hid his face. His hand turned his wife's body to face him.
"Why?" Sean asked then with a raised chin Salwa suapaya looked into his eyes. Salwa just shook her head without speaking a word.
Sean smiles at the knot understandingly, though Salwa knows what his past is like, but Sean understands if anyone talks about it will hurt his wife. Jealous, maybe that's exactly how it is.
"Sorry, "Sean cupped his hands to his wife's cheeks and wiped the tears that had dripped at the end of Salwa's eyes.
"Maybe you should get used to hearing that, but I'm sure no one will dare to bring up my past that makes you sad, don't cry anymore huh?"
Salwa nodded then brought up her smile despite being very thin. She is still pious, but it is not good to ruin the Sean holiday that she has been waiting for all this time because of hearing Abust's rant, Salwa tries to bury in memory the nature and behavior of her husband in the past, and the, when he became a maid and found Sean sleeping one bed with beautiful women who always flocked at every opportunity. She has promised in her heart to accept everything that is in her husband, be it now, the future or the past.
"Still angry?" Sean asked again to make sure Salwa was okay.
"I'm not angry anymore, just a little upset."
"Okay, maybe it'll make you smile."
Sean bent down, he placed his hand under Salwa's thigh and the other hand on his back. Salwa's body felt floating when Sean had managed to lift it, clutching with both hands that made Salwa had to wrap both arms around her husband's neck so as not to fall. Sean stepped into the bathroom, which he then protested from his wife.
"Hey, I've had a shower." Salwa hit her husband's chest slowly, who is still in a position to carry him.
"Who said we'd take a shower?" Sean blinked one eye mischievously, leaving Salwa gaping because he knew the intent behind the blinking gesture.
"Aahh, no-no,"
"Have not refused" said Sean then by closing the bathroom door using his feet.
.....
"So they're fine, I'm counting on you." Abust leaves the two boys to Sean, as he wants to return to London to continue the search for Catherine. His main goal this time was just to bring Ashton and Axton to his birth mother, Catherine's personal problems, he did not want to get involved too deeply.
"Let them here, I'm going on vacation. You don't intend to ruin my time off with Salwa to take care of those two kids, do you?"
"Good idea, you guys are on vacation, you better take the brand as well. As you learn how to nurture your future child later," Abust chuckled a little after saying that ', Sean's shadow would not be able to be alone with his wife must have frustrated the man. Unfortunately Abust could not see directly the annoyed face of Sean at that time, it must be very pleasant to see it directly.
"You?"
"I beg you, consider them your children. I was very troubled if I had to take care of them while looking for his mother," Abust's face was clear when asking for help, making Sean not have the heart.
"Why should you bother taking care of them. Just give them to the police station as long as their mother hasn't met."
Abust shook his head, I don't know what he was feeling right now. Abust felt the two children were his responsibility as long as Catherine was not around.
"I want to take care of her, her mother lost while she was at my place. For that they are currently my responsibility."
Sean frowned, since when did this foster sister understand about responsibility to others, whom he did not even know very well. Sean knew Abust very well, the man would not care about the fate of others, if in such a position, Abust will probably throw his responsibility to take care of the two boys to social services until his mother is found.
But right now, seeing Abust prefer to take full responsibility itself makes Sean's heart tingled to know more deeply.
Sean stepped closer to Abust, then patted his foster sister's shoulder slowly.
"Don't worry about them, go now. Pursue your love until you get."
"Hey, I'm not saying that I love her, who do you think I love?" Abust dodged Sean's words which actually very accurately described his heart. But his conscious mind tried to reject him.
"I also felt it at that time, when I had to choose to risk love and self-esteem. But when I choose love and don't worry about self-esteem or prestige, I feel happy. I suggest you do the same so you don't regret it later."
If only Sean chose dignity with high prestige then Salwa might he marry another man because the woman was only a maid, and he was a leader of large businessmen. But Sean did not do that, he chose to marry Salwa and after that he only realized that he really loved the woman who was now his wife.
"But everything was different, I saw the cctv tape, and he was shamelessly held by a man, even though his son was lying inside."
"Abust, not everything you see is true. Sometimes a person's vision can deceive and mask the truth, follow your heart, if your heart says you have to leave it, then do it. And if your heart says you believe it, then go after her, fight for your love."
Abust looked pondering. Yeah, maybe Sean's right. What she saw was not entirely true, it could have been the man who was a bad person or her ex-husband who threatened her by making his two children as a shield. Damn, why didn't he think about it before, and he was so emotional that he didn't help Catherine immediately and would rather find a daycare for Ashton and Axton. Abust's eye-light flashes seemed sharpening, portraying a strong determination within him, though he was too late to realize his folly, but he would make up for it by bringing back Catherine and reuniting her with his two sons.
"I've decided, I'll go look for him."
Sean smiled and nodded, his hand back patting Abust's shoulder firmly, as if giving a mental boost to his foster sister." Go, happy fighting. Get your love back."
Abust nodded, the struggle immediately began.he would try his hardest to find Catherine and ascertain his feelings for the woman. Maybe this is his chance to find true love that he has always considered impossible.
