"Not my lucky day I guess. As soon as I got home, I immediately saw my parents making out like this," Adel teased when she saw her father and mother making out.
Anya felt embarrassed and hit Aiden's chest twice, "Look. Our child is laughing at us!" Her shy appearance made Aiden think back to their youth.
Aiden hugged her and kissed her forehead. "Adel won't mind."
"They said, the best upbringing was when a child sees their father's love for their mother. I feel happy because your relationship is harmonious," Adel said with a smile.
"You heard that?" Aiden touched Anya's forehead with his.
"I know," Anya nodded shyly, like an innocent young girl.
"Adel, change your clothes and eat downstairs. Mom and dad are going for a walk in the park." Aiden took Anya's hand and walked towards the park together.
Usually, Aiden is very concerned about his health. He tries hard to exercise to stay fit. But he couldn't carry Anya, not because he wasn't strong anymore, but because Anya was getting fatter now.
Six months ago, Anya was diagnosed with a serious illness. Due to taking drugs, Anya finally gained weight.
In the Atmajaya Family, there is one sentence that will never be mentioned. Or you could say, the sentence is taboo, and that is losing weight.
For Aiden, as long as Anya is healthy, he doesn't care what her body shape is.
But Anya herself is quite concerned about her weight. She tried to diet and not eat high-calorie foods.
She worked hard, didn't lock herself up and worked in her perfume room all day long before.
However, she was already old enough that it was a little difficult for her to lose weight like in the past.
Aiden often accompanied Anya for walks when the weather's good. Sometimes they also go jogging by the lake.
No matter how Anya looks like, in Aiden's heart, Anya will still be the woman he loves.
While eating, Anya suddenly asked. "Adel, do you think I'm fat?"
"No. You absorb nutrients very well. It's good for your health," said Aiden.
"You're beautiful, mother. Nobody's more beautiful than you," said Adel sweetly.
Anya laughed seeing her youngest daughter. "You really are the best at sweet talk." Suddenly, she put down her spoon and fork. "I want to lose weight starting today. In half a year, I should be back to my old shape."
"Mother, what's wrong?" Adel looked at her mother worriedly.
Aiden also felt the same way. He looked at his wife worriedly. "Anya, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I heard Arka would bring his girlfriend in the new year. I need to lose weight soon. Otherwise, I won't be able to look beautiful at the wedding later," Anya said seriously.
Adel breathed a sigh of relief hearing that.
"In that case, I will arrange for a personal trainer to organize your exercise and diet menu. Now you have to eat." Aiden took Anya's spoon and gave it back to her.
"I've eaten a lot just now," Anya pursed her lips tightly, refusing to accept the spoon.
"This fish is very tasty and the calories are not as high as other foods. Just eat this, Mother," Adel took a piece of fish and put it on Anya's plate.
Anya looked at the fish which did look delicious. Finally she decided to accept the spoon and fork.
"I am very hungry. What's for food today?" Aksa just returned from outside. When he saw the many delicious foods on the table, his stomach immediately rumbled. "Wow, that's delicious. Did you guys know I'm going back to eat today?"
"You are sweaty and smelly. Where were you? Hurry up and go upstairs, take a shower and change your clothes. Don't come close to your mother," Aiden scolded.
Aksa grabbed his collar and smelled it. His brow furrowed as he smelled the scent. He couldn't stand his own smell.
"Mother, I will go up and get changed. Save some food for me." Aksa ran upstairs in a hurry.
"I want to lose weight. You can eat all the food," Anya said with a smile.
Suddenly, Aksa stopped walking. "What is it? Why do you want to lose weight? Mom, you're all right."
"Your brother is dating a girl. He said this year he will end his single life. I have to lose weight immediately so I can look good at his wedding," said Anya happily.
The corners of Aksa's lips curved into a proud smile. "Mother, I also promise you that this year will be my last year of being single."
"Do you two want to have a joint wedding party?" Anya asked.
"My brothers' faces look the same. It's really funny when people mistake the groom," said Adel with a laugh.
"Hurry, take a bath!" Aiden insisted.
"I don't want to have a joint wedding party," Aksa disappeared from the stairs after saying it.
When he came back down after taking a shower, Anya had finished eating. But she still sat at the table and waited for her son.
"Aksa, tell me, is there a girl you like?" Anya asked excitedly. She did not expect her two children to have lovers.
"Yes," Aksa sat at the dining table and drank the soup.
"Do you know her well? From which family? How long have you two been dating?" Anya asked excitedly.
"Since childhood," Aksa replied casually.
"Are you talking about Sabrina?" Adel asked. "But that doesn't mean she chooses you!"
"Is there a girl who doesn't like me? My looks and my attitude are very attractive to girls. How could anyone reject me," Aksa said confidently.
Anya and Aiden looked at each other. In the past, they considered their son's competition to get Sabrina just a joke so they let them.
But until now, the competition is still not over. Anya doesn't want Arka to fight with Aksa, or even with Mason.
She doesn't want siblings to fight with each other, uncles and nephews to fight each other, just because of a woman.
"Do you like Sabrina that much?" Anya asked calmly.
"Mom, don't worry. It's not like I won't be single forever." Aksa replied without hesitation.
But since Aksa answered too quickly and usually looked a little stupid, the answer sounded too random.
"What if Sabrina doesn't like you?" Aiden asked.
"As long as she can find a man she loves and can make her happy, I'm also happy for her," Aksa raised his head and looked at Anya and Aiden. "Father, mother, do you want to persuade me to give up for the sake of brother and Sabrina's happiness?"
Anya didn't answer, but Aiden opened his mouth. "If we persuaded you to give up, would you give in?"
"No, I won't give up if Sabrina likes me. It doesn't matter who she chooses, the three of us have promised to compete fairly," Aksa answered seriously.
Aiden nodded. "As long as you can take responsibility, as long as this matter doesn't affect family relations, you can decide for yourself. We will not interfere. No matter who Sabrina chooses in the end, we will accept her decision."
"Mother, who do you think will win between the three of us?" Aksa asked deliberately.
"Do you want to hear me say you will win? I don't want to answer it. You eat. I'm going for a walk first," said Anya, like a child who didn't want to lose.
Aksa laughed at that. "Adel, doesn't our mother look like a child?"
"Brother, mom has been through a lot. I understand her and as long as she's happy, I will be happy too." Adel looked at her brother, "I heard Sabrina is dating brother Arka. Doesn't that mean you've lost?"
