That afternoon, Luna arrived in America. He is picked up by Leo and his little daughter Elea.
During Elea's stay with Christina's aunt, the little girl did not complain at all. Even as Luna looked, Elea looked happy there.
"El, feel right here?"
"Hmmm...." The little girl nodded while enjoying her gelato. His cheeks that look more puffed up perfectly reddish.
She loves gelato, an Italian ice cream introduced by Stefan. Either because of her habits or her tongue which is indeed a carrier of the Stefan gene, which is obviously the little girl is similar to her biological father. Both are gelato enthusiasts. Especially if they are together.
Luna gently stroked the mane of the little girl. "Nake?" ask Luna again. And Elea again just nodded to answer him.
Luna shook her head slowly. Elea seemed to enjoy it, to the extent that twice the mother asked and only Deheman answered and nodded.
"Alright, finish the bracelet first. After that Mama wants to talk to El," said Luna slowly. And Elea, she answered again with a code. This time the little girl showed her thumb.
"How's aunt, Le?" Luna turns to Leo who is serious about driving a car.
"Thank God, Mrs Christina is getting better, ma'am. Miss Elea's presence had a great influence on her. Even the Great Lord always came home early now. Sir told me, he loves Miss Elea very much. If only...." Leo sounded a heavy sigh.
"Well what, Le?"
"If only Young Master were still around, the Great Lord would definitely have the chance to have a granddaughter as beautiful as Miss Elea," continued Leo who remained focused despite his lips telling a lot of stories.
The deg!
It felt like Luna's heart was pinched. Because Elea is their granddaughter. A pure Efrain.
Luna of course did not dare to reveal that fact. Because no one knows his own family. Luna actually kept it to herself. I don't know until when.
Luna's gaze fell on her little daughter. Elea always brings happiness wherever she is. Maybe it's a gift, behind the tragedy of his presence in the world.
Leo glanced at his master's nephew from the glass above the dashboard. Actually unintentionally, but the silence of Luna teased Leo to do it.
"I'm sorry if my words offend you, ma'am," said Leo, feeling guilty because the look on Luna's face was very obvious. The woman is uncomfortable.
"It's okay, Le. Not salahmu. We're going straight to the house." Luna ended this sensitive discussion for her. Even though Leo knows nothing.
\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=
A luxurious black sedan enters William's courtyard. Leo pressed his horn, signaling the servants inside to come out to help him.
But even Christina who looks enthusiastic about the arrival of Luna.
"Darling, Auntie misses so much." Christina's warm smile was like Mama Hannah's. A genuine smile for a loved one. "Be careful, don't push yourself."
Christina immediately ran over, when she saw Luna only using two crutches on her armpit without a wheelchair anymore.
"I'm getting used to it, Auntie. I need to keep training to recover quickly. Aunty need not worry," said Luna refused when Christina almost grabbed her arm to be guided.
"You young people are always stubborn. Slow down then. Let Auntie's bag carry."
Luna finally gave up her bag because it was not good to refuse again.
"Hi, pretty. That's why her face?" show Christina.
After Luna, Elea came out with a face full of the rest of the brown gelato she had eaten.
The little girl smiled as she revealed her neat teeth.
"This is Oma gelato. Tastes good ... Once." Wlea immediately swarmed over Christina's cheek which bent down to take Luna's bag.
The little girl kissed Christina. Until now, Christina was like Elea.
"Els! pity Oma," cried Luna who was shocked by what Elea did. His granddaughter and father looked very familiar.
"It's okay, honey. El is so. But Auntie's so happy she's here." Christina instead defends Elea who comes out past Christina and runs into the house.
"Since there's El, Aunt's life is colored. I don't know, it feels ... Very happy," said the aunt with a smile that was always warm. "Let's go in. Honey, you must be tired."
Aunties....
The trauma of losing Stefan must have been profound, and the one capable of healing was Elea, her own granddaughter.
How ironic.
Even today, he did not return to his home, but instead to Stefan's. The man who left the wound, yet also had sacrificed himself for her.
"Please, Madam." Leo surprised Luna because she was suddenly in front of the woman. "Just a few weeks you're not around, Mrs Christina and Miss Elea are getting closer. You'll be more surprised if you find out."
\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=
"And, will you do something for me?"
Upon arriving at the room, Luna rushed to contact Andrew. Something is forgotten. Something he hasn't done in Canada.
"What, just say it. I will help you as much as I can" replied Andrew across the street.
Then Luna made her point. Long he told a story until there was a small debate between the two. In the end, Andrew agreed to the woman's request.
"You're absolutely sure?"
"Yes. Let's just say it's my sense of responsibility because the status of the wife is still attached to me until now," said Luna Lirih.
Apparently, Luna asked Andrew for help to take care of all the daily needs of Adam during his sentence. Food, medicine and all personal hygiene needs.
Andrew refused. The man argued why Luna should do what she thought was unnecessary.
Adam did evil to him. It would only give Adam hope to get close to Luna again.
But Luna firmly and confidently answered no. It gives no hope. It's just a sense of responsibility.
"Are you going to visit her once in a while?" Andrew's question sounded sniffy. He seems to hate Adam.
"I can't answer it right now. I even prayed not to see him again under any circumstances. Let him be with his life, and me with mine" replied Luna firmly.
"Do Mr Ellard know?"
"Of course not, And. Don't tell. It's just between you and me. Papa would be very angry if he found out, "please Luna.
"alright. I'll help you. This job as long as Adam's serving his sentence?"
"Yes, that's all I can help her with" said Luna softly as she ended her call.
Not long after, there was a sound of the door being knocked from outside. Luna immediately stood up to pick up the crutches to help her walk.
"Darling, is Aunt bothering you?"
Apparently the aunt came.
"No, Bi. What's up?"
"Someone wants to meet you. He said he was your friend. Men."
Christina tells before Luna questions her.
"Who is it, Bi?"
"Auntie doesn't know all your friends, honey. But he seems good." Even with the clue the aunt gave, Luna still could not guess.
I have no boyfriend except ... Bharas.
"Ow ... Aunt forgot, she mentioned her name." Christina looked confused herself.
"Bhara?"
"Yes. That's-her-name. How do you know, baby? Did you guys make a deal? "
"No, Bi. My close friends are limited first, both male and female," said Luna.
"Yes. Come down and meet him. Pity that he has waited a long time downstairs," said Christina as she passed away.
Step by step Luna walked. Fortunately, the uncle's house had elevator access so he could get off the second floor by himself.
Do you know anyone who secretly incites prayer, and puts you in the deepest corner of his heart. He's someone from your past.
"Bhara's? Is that him?" luna muttered.
