Together but not the same
Episode 32: Trials


...🍁🍁🍁🍁...


"Ara's relationship is very good Marga, the fetus looks healthy." The obstetrician who is his mommy friend was looking at a monitor that displays the fetus in the womb Ara.


Ara and her mommy were moved. Soon Ara will be a mother while Marga will be a grandma. They are impatient.


"Have we been able to see the gender of my grandson Desi?" Marga stared at the monitor, which featured her granddaughter.


"Wait another three weeks. Come back. We'll know her gender. Where is Xavier? I didn't see her from earlier, why wasn't she the one accompanying Ara?"


"Xavier has very important affairs aunty, which is why it's not him who accompanies me." Ara smiled awkwardly at Desi.


"alright. That's not a big deal. Well, it's done." Desi put down the tools he held.


The clan also helps Ara to wipe the remaining gel on Ara's stomach. The two middle-aged helped Ara to rise from where she lay.


Ara and Marga sat themselves in the chair in the room.


"I'll give Ara vitamins. He can't think too much. Nor can I be too tired. And remember, always take care of her feelings."


Ara and her mother left there.


"Are you hungry, baby?" Both are in a car with a driver.


"I'm hungry mom. What if we went to a restaurant we used to visit first?" Ara waited for a response from her mommy.


"All right, we'll be there. Sir, please go to the restaurant of the usual place. We'll have lunch there." Marga gave the driver instructions to take them to where they were headed.


"Good mistress."


After spending a good distance. They both arrived at the restaurant they wanted. Ara and Marga looked around to see if there was an empty table. After finding an empty table, the two sat themselves on the empty table.


"Is there anything we can help Miss?" A waiter came with a menu book in his hand.


"I want renskavsgryta with lemon tea. What do you want mom?" Ara changed the direction of her gaze from the menu book to her mommy.


"Mommy wants bouillabaisse with sangria."


The waiter wrote their order, took back the menu book and excused it from there.


"Honey, is Xavier gonna be there long?" tanya Marga started the conversation.


"I don't know mom. He didn't say anything. He only said he had business. That's it."


"Is business more important than your marriage? Mommy doesn't think. Your marriage is only 2 weeks away, but he's busy taking care of his business leaving you as if he doesn't care about your marriage." Marga really wants Xavier to be his son-in-law. But if Xavier doesn't pay attention to his daughter he'll make the calculations on the young man.


"No mom. Xavier is also looking forward to our wedding. But he has an important job there. Her marriage is still long. Xavier must have come home before our wedding day." Ara tried to hide her worries. Today Xavier has never contacted him. When Ara contacted Xavier Xavier's phone definitely could not be reached.


"Mommy just wants you to be happy, baby. Mommy doesn't want you to suffer with your marriage. You should be happy. Whatever happens one day, you're not alone. You still have mommy and daddy." Marga clasped his daughter's hand.


Both of them ate their food quietly. Ara occasionally pensively thought of her mommy words.


"After this we will go home. You must be tired, baby."


Ara nodded in response. After lunch, the two went straight home.


Ara sat on the lounge chair that was on the balcony of her room. Ara again tried to contact Xavier but the result remained the same. Ara tries to contact Aril, Xavier's assistant.


The first call nobody answered. Similarly, the second call, but when the third call was answered.


"Hello Aril? sorry I wanted to ask. Xavier's phone can't be reached can I know what Xavier's doing?" Ara nervously waited for a reply from Aril.


"Sorry miss. Mister has been busy lately, so mister has never held his phone. The job here is a very emergency, that's why you didn't call miss."


"Alright, please tell Xavier not to push himself too much. Also tell him to always eat on time and take a break. I'm afraid he'll get sick."


"Fine miss. I'll tell the master later. Sorry, lady, but I have to hang up. Because I have a sudden affair."


"All right, no problem." Ara put her phone back. He missed Xavier.


"Baby, do you also miss daddy like mommy? Uncle Aril said, daddy's busy. So daddy can't call us. But take it easy, daddy will be home soon." Ara always invites her son to talk. Every Ara did it he would feel calm as well as not lonely.


The day has started at night. Ara immediately entered her room because the air outside had also started to cool. The night wind is not good for him.


While in a room with minimal lighting stood a handsome young man with a cold aura that enveloped him.


"Sir, don't you want to contact miss? Miss must be very sad because you can't be contacted." Aril lowered his head in fear for having dared to say that to his master.


"I can't. I don't want to put Ara in danger. They can target Ara at any time. For now let Ara know if I take care of business here. Ara doesn't need to know if I'm hunting someone." Xavier turned his body to face his right hand and his best friend.


"I have to clean up that guy first. Before returning to New York. I know Ara must be sad, but this is for the common good. I have to go home before our wedding is held." Xavier took his cigarette and lit it, Xavier smoked it, enjoying the smell of nicotine coming into his nose.


"I understand sir. But I'm just afraid that if the lady is always sad it will harm the contents of the lady. Today I got a report that Miss and Miss Marga went to the gynecologist to check Ms. Ara's contents." Aril tells Xavier with a happy feeling.


"What did the doctor say? Is Ara's content okay?" Xavier turns off his cigarette preferring to listen to a topic he finds very interesting.


"Miss Ara's village is fine, sir. The doctor only advised that the lady should not be too tired nor do you think too much. The doctor also advised that people around the lady to keep the feelings of the lady. The doctor also asked the lady to come back in three weeks to see the baby's gender."


Aril could see a smile on Xavier's face. Who would not be happy if soon to get married and also have children. So it was no wonder that his master seemed to be happy with what he was saying.


"good. I'll be able to accompany her to see the gender of our baby. I can't wait to find out. If you don't want to say anything else important, you better get out."


Aril, who understood, left the room. Leaving Xavier alone.


Xavier looked at the window. He misses his woman very much. But he can't take any chances. Xavier is sure, Ara can definitely get through this...
