It's been 3 nights Roxena hasn't been home to her apartment. Gerald who was not too pushy at first began to feel confused and uncomfortable. What a difficult feeling to explain. Moreover, he does not know where the existence of Roxena, whether it is deliberately not home or on a business trip again. Lily and Sophia did not tell him either. Nobody talks about that.
Gerald thought about the reason. Trying to guess. Is there something wrong with his attitude? Does obedience or her no longer rebellious actually make Roxena unhappy?
This brash woman is indeed difficult to conquer.
Gerald was also upset.
And the day went by so fast. It's fourth night. Gerald who had gone home from work was waiting for Roxena in the middle room of the apartment. Accompanied by a cup of coffee and reading a magazine, Gerald waited.
Seconds change minutes, minutes change hours, time has shown at 22:00 local time. Gerald put his cell phone rough on the table. His hands clenched, "where is the woman lacking?!"
"Lily, Sophia!" In the end, he couldn't help but ask.
Lily and Sophia who had not slept immediately faced. "Yes, sir."
"Where are your Misses?!"
Lily and Sophia looked at each other.
You lost, Sir.
"Why don't you just call Miss, Mister? It feels better if Miss answered him," Lily replied smilingly.
"Yes, Sir. It's been almost 4 nights Miss didn't come home. If you call, Miss will most likely be home." Sophia added.
"I want to know where he is, not want him to come home!"firmly Gerald.
Lily and Sophia maintained their smiles. "Your housewives and our Misses dare not interfere, Sir. If you are curious and can not stand it anymore, please contact Miss yourself. Or, don't tell me you don't have Miss's mobile number?!" Lily slightly raised her voice in surprise. Looking at Gerald in disbelief.
"Hey, Lily! Where might not have. Master just doesn't have the courage."
Jesus, Pia! You provoked him!
"You guys!"
"If you and Miss have any problems, please resolve them immediately, Sir. It feels uncomfortable in this apartment without Miss." After saying that, Sophia pulled Lily towards their room.
Leaving the flabbergasted Gerald with Sophia's words.
Those two servants really suck! CK, servant and master alike!!
Nonetheless, Gerald glanced at his phone. Lily and Sophia's words were at war in her mind. One side said to contact Roxena while one side said to just ignore it. Isn't that his wish too? However, Gerald was very uncomfortable.
In the end, after a long inner struggle, Gerald contacted Roxena.
"Damn! What am I doing?!" As if he had done something wrong, Gerald was about to disconnect the call.
"Yes?"
Too late!
It was answered by Roxena.
"Hm. Is this really you, Gerald?" That cold voice made Gerald pensive.
"Lily, Sophia, is this you? It doesn't feel possible if Gerald's calling me."
Frisson. Gerald's heart throbbed pain.
"Crazy woman, don't you remember coming home, huh?!" Covered with anger. Gerald yelled in annoyance at Roxena.
"Oh, this is right you." There's a sense of fun there.
"Where are you?"
"At home" replied Roxena. His tone became relaxed.
"Go home! This is your house!" Gerald's still screaming. Yes, this apartment is lacking without Roxena.
"Where? I have so many houses that I am confused where to go. Gerald, tell me, which place is really home?"ask Roxena. His tone changed again, bitter.
Gerald fell silent. His forehead cringed thinking about it.
I heard breath. "That's it. You must not be able to answer it. I'll go back to the apartment if I'm bored here. You're fine there."
"Roxena." Gerald called softly. "I'm your house."
The deg!
What the hell am I saying? Goddamnit!
Gerald instantly turned off the unilateral call.
"Ahhhh! Damnit damnit! Damnit damnit! How can I say such a disgusting thing? My house?! Goddamnit!"
Gerald misrah-misruh himself. "The woman must be a big head!"

Meanwhile, Roxena fell silent in place. "You ... my house?" Repeating what Gerald said before closing the unilateral call.
"Gerald whether you're serious or not, my heart is pounding because of it," Roxena muttered, touching her chest, feeling an increasingly rapid heartbeat.
Roxena smiled, gently. As if around to feel the pleasure, the wind blows slowly and the stars increasingly show their light.
Roxena opened her eyes when she sensed someone was wearing a coat on her. "The air's getting colder, miss. You'll catch a cold if you stay here" Erin said.
"It was cold, Erin. It's not anymore" replied Roxena.
I've put on my coat, miss, ' Erin murmured in her heart.
Roxena and Erin are in the highest tower of the base. Look at the night view from the highest place.
"Erin, what do you think is home and where is your home?"ask Roxena.
Erin who was unprepared for the question did not immediately answer. Is that a house? And where's his house?
It's an easy question but not as easy as the answer. Everyone has their own version of their home.
"I think the house is a place where we can let go of fatigue. A place where we can calm our hearts. A place to share stories and support each other. A place full of warmth. And my home, is here, Light and Shadow." Erin answered.
"This dangerous place, your home?" Roxena narrowed her eyes.
Erin nodded in understanding. "Although this house is dangerous. This house is the safest place for me. I am comfortable here, being reunited with members from diverse backgrounds. Together they create warmth. This place, members of Light and Shadow, and you, is my home."
Roxena was stunned by that answer. His cold heart did not feel that way at all. He built this organization to create an inviolable power. He founded this organization to protect himself from unexpected threats. All this time, it did not occur to Roxena if she had created a house for her members. While he is still looking for what a home is despite having many places to stay.
Erin bowed. Roxena who heard that involuntarily shed tears.
However, as Erin looked up, Roxena wiped her down roughly. "Stop your bullshit. There are still many members whose loyalty is questionable" Roxena said coldly.
"Ah. He means the real Light and Shadow, Miss."
"Forget it. Suppose I never asked you about that!"break Roxena.
Erin nodded. Secretly smiling.
Even so you've been listening to the end, Miss.
Roxena turned around followed by Erin, descending from the tallest tower.
"How's that guy?"ask Roxena.
"Stay not open your mouth, miss. And she's dying, miss."
Bugh!
"Miss!" Erin flinched. Immediately grabbed Roxena's hand, checking the fist that had just punched the wall.
"Throw him into the vulture cage, right now!!"tell Roxena emotions. As he commanded, if you do not open your mouth within three days, let Hering end his suffering.
"Good, Miss." Erin left Roxena to fulfill her duties.
So firm they. What power is greater than LS*?
*LS \= Light and Shadow
Royal people, could they be?
Roxena's eyebrows are linked.
No, they're not that brave. But, if it's true .. then I'm in great danger. No, it's not just me. LS is also in danger.
"Damn!!"
Roxena's already calm heart regained its uneasiness. Roxena then took a quick step even half-run towards her room. Take the car keys and head for the garage.
Moments later, the white sedan had already sped away from the Light and Shadow headquarters.
The modified white sedan drove at high speed, splitting the relatively quiet streets of the city. It didn't take long for Roxena to arrive in the basement of her apartment.
His breath gasped as he entered his apartment. His gaze went straight to one room, Gerald's room.
In his sleep, Gerald felt someone approaching and hugging him. Gerald felt unperturbed to return the hug. A smile was etched on his lips.

Gerald widened his eyes when he found out he was sleeping by hugging Roxena.
Roxena was still sound in her sleep. While Gerald was guessing.
This lady? When did he come home?
Why sleep in my room?
Why am I hugging him?
What the hell am I doing?
Gerald touched his head. He doesn't remember anything.
I was not drunk.
Waitaminute!
Gerald checked his body immediately. Full outfit, no sign of battle marks. Sighing in relief, Gerald looked back at Roxena.
This woman is more beautiful when she sleeps.
Gerald reached out his hand, touched his eyebrows then came down to touch Roxena's nose and stopped for a long time at the lips.
Damnit damnit! What am I thinking?!
Awake, Gerald! He's your enemy! Your woman is only Elisha!!
Despite this, Gerald still felt the heat on his ears and face. He ate his own words.
"Ughhh!"
Gerald's inching a little. Roxena is awake. Rubbing his eyes and then giving a massage on the forehead. All can't be separated from Gerald's observations.
"Morning, Gerald," said Roxena with a smile.
"You, why in my room?"ask Gerald, get up and open the curtains. The sun has risen.
"Ah, I think I've already answered her," Roxena replied casually.
This apartment is mine!
"CK!"
"Why did you come home? Aren't you comfortable in your other house?"ketus Gerald's.
Roxena widened her eyes. Surprised by Gerald's question.
Uhhh! Why can't I control my tongue?
"Ah, forget it. I don't care how many other houses are out there or not!!" The man relented by carrying a vexation in his heart.
Is this what we call jealousy?
Roxena smiled. "Hey, Gerald! Even though I have another house, you are my main house."
"I don't care!" Gerald answered him loudly and heard a door slam. Roxena chuckled softly.
Let's bet. Strengthen our relationship in the past or your relationship with him now.
"Miss suddenly came home and looked happy. What's going on in there?"lily whispered asked.
"Maybe it's a husband-and-wife affair" Sophia replied.
