"That is if you have nothing to hide," said Mrs. Adhisty. "Why are you so tense? I am just asking."

            Serena and Jason looked at each other and then forced a smile.

"I brought lunch. There's Serena's favorite honey pie and roasted almonds for Jason."

"Wow!! What a coincidence that I'm hungry. There's still about fifteen minutes to fill up," Jason muttered after a glance at the watch on his right hand.

            The three of them then entered Serena's room. Eating the food that the Mommy brought with joy.

"Mom?"

Mrs. Ashisty shook her head softly with a smile. "I had breakfast at home, dear."

              Serena nodded and then put her food back into her mouth. She was so happy to be surprised by her mommy, that she almost forgot that the woman who ha

    Serena almost forgot to breathe after seeing the black shadow that was getting closer to her. The atmosphere similar to the gripping scene was real in front of the eyes."Hey!" The voice just now startled the person startled. Then he took quick steps to get out of the girl's room. Too bad. His steps were halted when he found two security guards who had already taken a stand. The lights came back on. Serena hurriedly came out from behind the cupboard and grabbed her cell phone and bag with a trembling body."Are you okay?" asked Jason, who still hadn't left the office. Serena nodded slowly after inhaling as much oxygen as possible. Now she could only surrender when Jason continued to hold her hand until they were in the parking lot area."Calm down, Serena. Everything is fine now. You wait here for a while." After that Jason rushed to the security post. He wanted to see the intruder who almost harmed Serena. His jaw harden

    "What's wrong with you?" asked Mr. Jimmy when he saw Sandra and Mrs. Adhisty hugging each other."No, honey. I was just explaining to Sandra that she and Serena are the same. Two princesses I love with all my heart," murmured the wife who began to widen her smile.Mr. Jimmy chuckled for a moment before finally getting a sad look from Sandra. "Don't tell me that she's doing strange things as a manifestation of her jealousy?" Suddenly the Princess immediately widened her eyes. As if her father understood how her character was in venting emotions."You're overreacting," Mrs. Adhisty argued. "Sandra is an adult. She won't be like that anymore.""Really?" muttered Mr. Jimmy, who looked suspicious.Sandra's grunt of annoyance made the couple chuckle softly."She's just jealous. Forgot that her beautiful mama is an actress. You forget when you were in college. She got to grab her friend's hair, hmm?""Papa," whined Sandra."Well, yes indeed. I am worried that you will do someth

    Serena's heart was beating so fast after hearing the news from the waiter. Reflexively she screamed hysterically while running towards the scene. Only about two hundred meters away from her house, Barra's car was no longer intact. The front part was badly damaged. Meanwhile, the owner, who was still unconscious, was being put on a gurney."His body is soaking wet. It's even hotter," said an onlooker who saw Barra's condition."That's a pity. He's sick and he's driving," said another. Serena who heard it all gaped with one hand that was about to break through the crowd in front of the eyes. Meanwhile, Jason, who had just arrived, immediately took a step to get closer."Let's follow him to the hospital."Serena shook her head quickly. "I... want to go to the ambulance." Without saying a word Jason immediately escorted his adopted sister to the milky white car in question. "You take it easy. He won't be anything. I'll call his family."

    "Please," Serena begged with an already frightened face. "It's only temporary." Barra grunted harshly and examined his right arm, which was still wrapped in bandages. There was pain radiating down to the shoulder of Serena's handsome ex."In a moment, I'll call the nurse," Serena muttered later. One hand moved to release the grip on Barra's left hand which had been moving erratically. Then she moved to the back of the man to gently press the bell. In less than a minute, a medic appeared in the doorway."The patient is conscious," Serena said."Alright. I'll get the patient's medicine in a moment," the nurse excused herself. Returning with a tray containing breakfast and medicine, the medic now explained to Serena as the patient's family."Thank you." Serena took the initiative to feed the former. How could she not, her right hand could not function as before."Eat up!" Barra's shaking made Serena chuckle with annoyance. For a

    "Ouch!" Barra cried when he got a pinch on his right knee. Serena then smacked her lips and landed on the sofa. She sat with her legs crossed while keeping her hands crossed."Come on. Why did you do that? I need help," Barra teased while raising his eyebrows. The girl chuckled in annoyance. As if she didn't care about what he just said. The next second she got up from her seat."Hey, where are you going?" Unfortunately Barra's exclamation went unanswered. The man snorted softly while lying back down as before. Until five minutes later Serena appeared with a male nurse beside her."Clean yourself up. Don't trouble others," Serena muttered later. Inevitably the beautiful girl moved to prepare a change of clothes for the former. Complete with toiletries that had been delivered by the driver moments ago."I'll wait outside while you get cleaned up.""Huh. I wanted you to give me a bath," Barra laughed.Serena smiled very sweetl

    Serena left the hospital early in the morning. Not forgetting to send a message to Tora to replace her on guard."Miss Serena has left, boss," a bodyguard reported to Barra."Shit!! Why didn't you wake me up, huh?" snapped Barra, who was already angry. The man growled and then violently tossed his hair back. Last night's heart-to-heart talk still couldn't melt Serena. He was getting frustrated as a result. Even more painful than the clavicle fracture he was currently experiencing."Does the boss need anything?""No," Barra snapped. "Get out!" Meanwhile, on the other side. Jason, who was exercising on the balcony, squinted after seeing Serena's arrival. The girl's small running steps seemed to be a sign that she was not okay. He hurriedly wiped his sweat. Then descended the stairs to greet his adopted sister."Morning!" greeted Jason as he widened his smile. "What a coincidence. Let's have breakfast." Serena nodded slowly

    It's been fifteen minutes since Jason finished his explanation about Serena. Both he and the Mommy were still silent. Both were busy with their own thoughts. Even the crowd in the cafe didn't bother them at all."Mom," said Jason who finally started to break the silence.Mrs. Adhisty blinked as she turned quickly to her adopted son."I'm sorry that I can only tell you now." A thin, forced smile broke out on her beautiful face. Then she shook her head while wiping away the tears that began to soak her cheeks. Even Jason who also approached then hugged her."I .... hmmm," sobbed Mrs. Adhisty who was now even crying. Their deliberately chosen seats were not easily seen by many people. There is a partition that serves as a barrier altho

    The answer just now made Serena's forehead wrinkle. "What, Mom? Your voice is too low. I can't hear you." The beautiful girl turned her head as she straightened up.Mrs. Adhisty hurriedly wiped away the tears that began to flow. "Here, dear. Listen to me." Serena nodded. Then landed her head on Mommy's lap. Receiving a gentle caress on the top of her head that was treated with affection."Jason must be mad at me," said the middle-aged woman starting her sentence again."Why? He's never been that way as far as I know. What did you say?""Hemm I'm already pushing him."The princess chuckled at that. "Forced what? Marriage?""No, no. We forced him to talk...""...about the real you," Mrs. Adhisty continued later. S

    Serena looked so graceful wearing a white kebaya with an elegant design wrapped around her body. Mrs. Adhisty led her down the stairs without letting go of her hand. Nervous. That's what the beautiful girl was feeling. She was seated not far from the man who would soon perform the Ijab Kabul in a matter of minutes. Not unlike Serena, Barra didn't even dare to look at his future wife because he was busy remembering the memorization that the committee of the wedding had said earlier. It was clear that he didn't want to repeat his mistake when he made the sacred vows of marriage later. So the GM of Erlangga Hotel chose to look down."How is it? Is there anything else you want to wait for?" asked Mr. Committee of the wedding. Both sides of the bride and groom agreed to start the marriage contract process. Since there was no family from Daddy's side left, a guardian from the government was appointed to mediate. It took a while b

    Short, concise, and clear. That's what Tita said just now. Tora's wife, who was originally rude and selfish, took Serena's hand and led her to touch her slightly bulging belly. "Let's raise this child together, Serena." Serena still didn't move. Her eyes were teary because she didn't know what to say in response to her future sister-in-law's request."You want to, right? This child will have two mothers and fathers. He'll be so happy," Tita murmured."I-yes, Sis," Rena finally replied. Then the two hugged each other to channel their feelings of love between women. Not long after, Barra came to separate them."Hurry up, sweetheart. You'll be late," Barra whispered later.Serena nodded slowly. Her smile was perfect as she descended the escalator that facilitated her steps toward the airline gate. Mrs. Adhisty gently rubbed her arm to give her peace of mind.***["Look here, you can play baseball too!"] Barra now confidently swung his a

    "I trust you with everything.""No, you don't. I want us to take care of it ourselves," Barra broke off, not wanting to hear any argument. "Please, darling!" The puppy eyes and hopeful face of an Adibarra Erlangga made Serena nod while smiling. Inevitably, she moved to unbuckle the seat belt that was still attached to his fiancé's body."Thanks, honey," Barra murmured just as her girl was about to inch back. "Don't want to reply hemm?""No," Serena quickly denied. "We won't get in. Look at Papa standing on the balcony!""Excuses," Barra sneered. Serena seemed to turn off her sense of hearing. She opened the car door immediately. The first sight she saw made her glance lazily. There was Tita, who was sitting in the living room relaxing while enjoying her pregnant milk."Don't mind her. Let's go inside!""No. I'll just go home. It's getting late.""You haven't said goodbye to Papa yet," Barra said, making Serena hesitate. Tita, who saw the

    The beautiful green scenery made Serena's smile perfect. The girl carried her fiancé with her left hand, which carried a basket filled with lunch boxes that she had brought from home. The perfume with the scent of citrus blossom that emanated from the body of Barra's fiancé seemed to blend in with nature. It was refreshing and made the feelings it gave a positive impression."Aunt Cintya's daughter is a top therapist for you. The proof is in the therapy," Serena murmured with a smile."Her voice is like a mosquito. It's shrill and annoying. That's why you can't help but obey," said Barra, who was now raising and lowering her right wrist."If it's not like that, I'm sure you will recover for a long time. If we get married, you'll be able to carry me for photo shoots," said Serena while holding back her laughter."You can. You have to," Barra said with a high level of confidence. "Within the next two months, you'll see your brother back to his old self.""And

    Tora's wife, who felt offended, was about to come forward to attack Sandra, but her steps stopped when she remembered the bitter experience of losing her baby a few months ago."You better focus on pregnancy. Already want to be a mother but her behavior hasn't changed at all," snapped Sandra who immediately disappeared from Tita's sight. Her breath was still hunting until she returned to Jason who was still in his original position. She was so annoyed that she grabbed the man's glass and drank the contents until it was empty."Why?" asked Sandra as she saw Jason's sardonic gaze."You took my glass," sneered the man.Sandra blinked quickly. Then look at his glass glass which is still half full. He felt embarrassed. "Sorry. I'll replace your other glass.""No need," Jason snapped immediately. Inevitably he looked at Sandra who looked like she was exhausted. "Have you been scratching?" he asked later. Sandra did not answer, but her eyes glanced sharp

    Serena immediately turned her head when she heard a knock from outside. She nodded as if giving a code to the team of makeup artists who had just beautified her appearance."You're beautiful," Jason murmured with a smile. "Daddy would be happy if he were here right now.""Yeah. He'd probably stop this show. Especially if Daddy finds out you're marrying the son of his archenemy."That remark made Jason chuckle. "You're such a smartass. Daddy is like that. He would do anything to make you happy. Even when he found out that you were going out with Barra that time."Serena's eyebrows immediately went up one side. Astonished by Jason's words a few seconds ago. Then her foster brother pulled up a chair so he could talk a little longer. Inevitably his eyes directed Serena to do the same."You are always under Daddy's supervision 1x24 hours. Until the moment you crossed over to the orphanage was the last time he hired a secret bodyguard for you.""Forgot? Once you we

    "Don't argue. Or I'll kidnap you right now," Barra muttered with a glint in her eye. "Prepare yourself, darling. The day after tomorrow, our engagement ceremony will be held at the Erlangga Hotel at 7 pm." Afterward, the man gave Serena a brief peck on the cheek and then moved out of the car. Calling Serena's driver before finally waving goodbye with a wink. Having just thrown herself on the bed, the girl was again surprised by a video call from her lover. She smiled perfectly after cleaning up from the event.["Hi, beautiful. What are you doing?"] Serena did not answer. Just showing her row of clean and neat white teeth.["You're cosplaying as a toothpaste commercial, right?"] Suddenly the girl immediately got up from her lying position. Then looked at Barra with a sullen face.["Even if you're angry, you look beautiful. You're still beautiful no matter what."] And there are many more pussycat sentences conveyed by Barra. Se

    The main event of the seven-month thanksgiving for Fina's pregnancy was over. The guests were invited to mingle and taste the dishes that had been provided."Congratulations, Fina. I hope you're healthy until the birth," Serena murmured while gently stroking her best friend's bulging belly. There was a feeling of joy mixed with envy that she was harboring. Meanwhile, Fina, who understood very well how the sad face changed, immediately grasped her hand."My child will be your child too. He will call you Mama too, Serena. It's just a matter of conceiving and giving birth. You will also be considered as his mother," Fina said with tears already welling up. The two of them hugged each other tightly. No one spoke until Fina's husband approached them."I'm jealous of you guys. It's like brother and sister."Fina hurriedly wiped her tears, then gently elbowed her husband's arm. "Our son will have two mothers. Right, Hubby?"Fina's husband, who knew how Serena was, n

    Instead of answering Serena's question, Barra landed a kiss on his beautiful ex's luscious lips. Making the master shocked beyond belief."You!!"Barra kissed Serena. Suddenly, his beautiful girl's tanned eyes widened perfectly. Her lips parted in an attempt to say something, but unfortunately, her tongue was suddenly paralyzed."I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. So let's get married quickly," Barra muttered later. The girl frowned as she changed her sitting position to straight ahead. No longer facing each other with the ex who had always been able to make her heart beat wildly lately. Meanwhile, Mrs. Adhisty, who was about to call her daughter, also stopped her steps at the doorway. Realizing that the two of them were having a serious conversation, she backed off. Barra moved closer, eroding the distance between them. He no longer cared about his clavicle, which was sore due to the movement of his
