When Wirata and his mother were back from the market, it was already evening. His mother took her to the local market and then to see around the outskirts of the town.
When they arrived home, she saw the tall figure was standing at the front terrace. His handsome face lighted up when he saw them.
He carried Summer on his shoulder. When they walked up the steps onto the terrace, he walked to his mother first, kissed her on the cheek. Then he turned to Wirata and pulled her into a hug and kissed on her forehead.
"Did you two have fun? You've gone so long, all day."
He asked and complained a little. The big hand reached to help her carry a bag.
Jacqueline smiled at them. She told the servants to help bring the shopping bags from the car.
"I will go up to take a shower. See you two in the dining room at sick o.clock."
Jacqueline said to both of them and walked inside the house. She did not want to separate her son from his woman anymore for today. She could see his face, like a wayward boy. He acted as if his beloved toy was taken.
"Yes. It was fun. Your mother took me to see many beautiful places. Hey, my boy. I missed you. "
She replied to him and turned to pat the puppy's head. Causing the man who was carrying the puppy made a sullen face.
"You missed only Summer?"
He asked with grudge expression. Wirata felt amused to see the handsome face looked unpleased. She reached for Summer to hold in her arms and gave him all the shopping bags.
"Yes. Are you a good boy, Little Summer? I've bought some tasty souvenirs for you as well. Let's go inside. "
She said to the puppy without paying attention to him. Then she carried Summer inside the house. Stefan stood there, his gaze following her. He felt upset because he missed her so much and thought of her all day. But she did not care and did not feel the same toward him at all!
Wirata secretly giggled after got to the living room. the big man stood and his gaze followed her with a sulky face. He probably forgot about what he used to do to her. Now, it was the time to pay back to him a little.
Stefan sighed after a few minutes of feeling upset. He remembered one night a long time ago when he came back from outside and she was waiting. That time he was ignoring her and shouted at her. It was because he felt just like this. Feeling missing the woman so he was irritated with himself and shouted at her to ease his mood.
Stefan gave the shopping bags to a servant to put upstairs and then he went outside the house to the back garden to calm himself down.
He saw roses and suddenly, he got an idea for something. So, he went to the gardener and talked to him and arranged it.
Stefan felt better to be among nature. The compound was full of flowers and trees. His mother loved gardening. Stefan remembered when she was still at the main mansion in Boston. After school, he would run to the garden at the back of the house and found her there. And when his father came back from his office he would walk straight to the back garden as well, because he knew she was there, too.
Stefan believed his father still loved his mother. But he did not want to ask them why they had separated. It was almost twenty years now.
If he married the woman he loved. Stefan would make sure that they would be together for life. He knew what he wanted now. He felt a bit sorry for her that she did not have much choice because he would do everything to keep her by his side. She would have to stick with him all life and that was it. No other way.
The smile appeared on his face when thinking about the woman he wanted to spend his life with. The talk body then walked back inside the house with a better feeling.
That night after having dinner. Stefan asked Wirata to walk around the back garden for the fresh air.
The moon above was shining its soft gentle light down on them. Stefan put his arm on her shoulders. They walked to sit in the octagonal pavilion painted in white. There were wooden battens around and had many colorful flower vines entwined around the posts, and grew up onto the roof, looked like in a fairytale.
Wirata noticed that his mother liked planting flowers very much. She saw flowers everywhere in this house. The gardens were well-designed and organized into beautiful proportions.
The sound of Wirata's phone rang. She hurried to pick it up and saw it was Sam. She pressed the button with a big gladly smile on her face because she was missing him and just talked about him with Jacqueline.
"Hello, sister-in-law. Please put the video on. I want to see your face. I miss you so much."
Sam's voice came through. Wirata did not hesitate to follow his wish. She put the video call on.
Wirata was standing and leaning against Stefan's chest. He embraced her from behind, putting his chin on her shoulder.
Sam was sitting on the couch in his apartment and Sophia was sitting next to him.
"Hi! Wine, Hi, bro." Sam greeted first.
"Hi! Wine, Stefan. "
Sophia greeted next and waved at Wirata and Stefan. Stefan smiled a little and put his hand up in a greeting gesture.
"Hello, there."
Stefan said.
"Hi! Sam, Sophia... I miss you guys so much!"
Wirata said to her beloved friends.
"Wow! What a sweet couple. I'm jealous right now."
Sam teased when seeing Stefan hugged Wirata in his arms. Wirata blushed. She had not yet told Sam and Sophia about her latest situation with Stefan.
"What's up, Sam? Why are you calling my woman."
Stefan asked as if Sam was not allowed to call Wirata any time he wanted as before.
"Hey, your woman is my best friend, bro. I just called to tell you that after the exam I will visit you two in Las Vegas. "
Sam said.
"He will take his girlfriend to introduce to you two. Right, Sam?"
Sofia inserted with a cheerful voice. Sam was making a strange face, glaring at Sophia.
"Wow! Really? when did you ever have a girlfriend, Sam? Why didn't I know?"
Wirata was really surprised because in her eyes she always thought that Sam and Sophia had special feelings between them.
But now Sophia said Sam had a girlfriend?
"Sophia will take her boyfriend to show you as well, Wine."
Sam said with a hint of frustration in his voice. His handsome face looked a little moody. Sofia shrugged and smiled cheerfully as usual.
"Yes! You will like him, Wine. He is studying in the same class as me. "
"Wow! I can't wait for both of you to come."
Wirata said to her best friends. She was not sure what's going on between them yet but they were acting weird in her opinion.
