Knock! Knock! Knock!

The sound of the door being knocked loudly startled the three people inside. All three of them immediately looked at the door painted white with pink trinkets.

"Mom! Mom! Mom!" a small voice from behind the door was heard.

"Rui?!" said Hayle who immediately got out of bed.

The men there exchanged glances. They seemed to be as surprised as their mother. Hayle herself wondered if Rui had heard what they were saying until she did this. If she had listened to everything... it would not be good.

However, Hayle quickly opened the door. She wanted to know what exactly made Rui hit the door of her room so hard. Was he angry at Hayle, or what?

"What's wrong Rui?" asked Hayle in surprise.

But the look on Rui's face was different from what the three of them thought. They thought she might be angry, upset, or disappointed, but on the other hand, she looked excited and cheerful. There was no way she could be like this if she heard what they had discussed earlier.

    "Did you get any news about them?" Hayle admonished her husband who had just returned to their home.It was the right thing to do these days, waiting for her husband to come home with information for her.But this time it was the same as the previous days, Jaxter shook his head slowly."Still no news from either Ziel or Jacob." Jaxter let out a long breath. "It's hard enough to find someone who left outside our territory."It was Hayle's turn to take a deep breath. "Yes! I understand that you must have done your best."Jaxter remained silent and resigned the tie he was wearing. Seeing that, Hayle immediately approached her husband and helped Jaxter untie his tie."Do you think we need to go back to the Caribbean. Meet the aunt who met Rui? Maybe we can get a lot of information from her?" Hayle looked at her husband with a doubtful face but she felt that it was a good idea. "I'll consider it." Jaxter still had to take care of many things before he could carry out Hayle's wish. But he w

    "I found out that the man in the photo, as she said, lives in Hawaii. The uncle's name is Jacob and after I visited the aunt's house, she was finally able to find a contact number to call." Arzhiel took his cell phone and showed something on the screen.Both Hayle and Rui immediately raised their eyes. Even Hayle immediately took the cell phone from Azhiel's hand who looked incredulous. "Are you sure this is Jacob's cell phone number?""Yes, that's what Auntie said. I also tracked down the owner of the cell phone number and it was registered under Jacob's name. So I'm sure it belongs to Uncle Jacob. Auntie wants me to try to contact him since I haven't tried yet. I just don't know what to say later." Arzhiel smiled sweetly. It felt happy to see how the faces of the two women who looked very disbelieving but alsohappy."Yes. May I?" said Hayle. It wasn't about Rui, but she also missed her best friend a lot. "Rui, can I call your father?" Hayle asked for permission first, of course she

    "He should have arrived already, right? The plane landed, right?" said Hayle with an anxious look on her face. She was desperate to see her best friend. And on the bulletin board, Jacob's plane had landed."Yes. Don't worry, he'll be out in time." Jaxter accompanied his wife to pick up his best friend. Their son and daughter waited at home. Rui made the decision herself."Yes. I'm calm. I'm just a little ehm, nervous. Can you feel it?" said Hayle putting her hand right on her left chest. Yes, her heart was not safe. It felt like even the time around her was going so slow. Ever since Jacob said he had flown, even closing her eyes was difficult for Hayle.Jaxter was silent but his face changed slightly. "You're never like this with me anymore."Hayle wrinkled her forehead then looked with an incredulous face. "Jax! You're jealous of Jacob too! We've been together for almost 25 years anyway. You still don't trust me? I'm already five!" "I trust you, I just don't trust other men. 23 years

    "At first I can't remember anything, I woke up in a hospital bed in Hawaii. All I knew was that my whole body was in a lot of pain and I couldn't get out of bed at all. The doctor who treated me said that I had been in a coma for more than half a year." Jacob recounted what he experienced after what happened to him. Everyone in the house was silent, they were listening to what this man was saying. Even so, his hand continued to hold Rui's hand."Then when did you get your memories?" asked Arzhiel who was even more curious about this man's story. Moreover, what he knew was that this man was not in an accident as told by his parents. Instead, he was attacked by people they didn't know."It took a long time for me to remember. About 3 years after the incident, I had a serious memory disorder. I even forgot everything. And, suddenly I woke up with a terrible headache, then I remembered my name and some glimpses of my previous life.""At that moment you remembered Rui?" asked Hayle now who

    "Why did you say something like that earlier Jax?" asked Hayle who glanced at her husband as she rubbed lotion all over her body after she finished putting on her clothes after cleaning herself."About what?" Jaxter took off the shirt he was wearing one by one. After his wife it was time for him to take a shower."About Ice."Jaxter did not answer immediately. Tickling the curiosity and attention of Hayle who immediately tried to see what happened to her man's face."Do you still suspect that Ice might betray us again?" Hayle asked."There's no harm in being on guard. We already have the life we dreamed of all this time, I won't let a single person ruin it." Jaxter glanced at his wife with a rather sharp gaze. Making Hayle unable to say anything. In a life like the one they lived. Tranquility was a high price they had to pay with so many sacrifices before."So about when will you let us see him. I'm sure Jacob and Rui will want to see Ice." Hayle tried to be cooperative with her husba

    "Good morning!" the cheerful, friendly voice filled the room where Hayle was on duty, if not the kitchen.The woman raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly. "Good afternoon, Jac.""Yes! Yes! No need to emphasize it. But it's early in Alaska. I guess it is." Jacob rubbed his face. He still looked sleepy."The time difference between here and there is only an hour Jac, so I guess it's already daytime in Alaska." Hayle shook her head. Even at this age, she still couldn't let go of her innocence."Yeah. Every now and then make me happy Hayle by just following what I say." Jacob made a little annoyed face at being corrected by this woman."Eat your breakfast, or actually brunch. After that take your medicine. You have to take it, right?" Hayle said. Yesterday she saw him taking his medicine after their warm dinner."Not really. It's just for pain relief. Yesterday's flight made my leg ache, so I took it. It's quiet, even though four bullets have gone through my body. I'm overall very healt

    The door slowly opened. Making all the hearts of the people outside the door beat faster.When Jacob saw the figure of a woman sitting at the end of a fairly narrow room, on an old-looking bed. Curled up as if frightened with her hair loose over her face.Jacob frowned, not really having any expectations about how the woman who was predicted to be his wife was doing."Ice." Hayle walked into the room. Leaving the two men who seemed to be still observing the situation inside Ice's hospital room.As usual, Hayle sat at the end of the bed closest to her. Always trying to communicate well with the woman who never even looked at her."I'm here again, but this time I'm not alone with my husband. Would you like to see who came with us?" Hayle said it as gently as possible. It was always like that if she was dealing with this woman because according to Hayle, that was how to treat someone like this Ice.But, even though Hayle had seduced the woman. Of course Ice didn't seem to understand what

    "Rui ...." Hayle stared at her daughter to which Rui immediately responded."Yes? Mom?" Rui showed a subtle streak on her face, following the question that fell from her lips."I know that Rui probably has many things to ask. But, is it okay if you, Mom, and Jacob's father talk first?" Hayle gently tried to give understanding to her daughter. She knew that it was not difficult to usually talk to this sweet girl.Rui pursed her lips and nodded for a moment. Although there were indeed a lot of questions in her head but Rui couldn't force herself to stay there. One of her principles said that it was better not to know what she shouldn't know. Or maybe not yet.Jacob smiled proudly at how the princess behaved. Although he was reluctant to release the delicate grip of his daughter. But it was something they had to do. The three of them stared at Rui's departure who soon disappeared behind the door of the infirmary."I'm glad you guys took care of her to become such a great girl. I don't th

    "How was it?" asked Hayle approaching her husband. Seeing Jacob only gave her a faint smile. Of course it made Hayle very curious. How did the man meet his wife.Actually Hayle really wanted to witness it. But, she had her own business to take care of Zave's lecture that she had promised a few weeks ago. Therefore, she could not cancel this."They just talked for a while." Jaxter answered his wife's curiosity."And then? What did they talk about? Did they talk about bringing Rui?" Hayle with a very curious face.There was actually one thing that made Hayle a little worried about all this. They were going to take Rui and keep the two of them apart. Because after all Hayle -she knew this was very selfish- had taken care of and loved Rui with all her heart."I don't know what they're talking about. I wasn't inside with them.""Ha?" Hayle wrinkled her forehead with an incredulous face. "Why aren't you even with them. I want to know what they're talking about." Hayle was really upset why e

    "You put her in the Isolation room?" Jacob asked with a deep frown on his face."It's better to keep her from escaping. There are many things that will happen if she gets out of here. I don't think I need to explain, do I?" Jaxter seemed to just stare straight at the hallway that would lead them to a room that was quite secluded there.Jacob played with his lips. He slowly walked, fortunately Jaxter was understanding enough to match his pace."Thank you for hosting her here." Jacob lifted the corner of his lips before glancing at the man whose facial water had not even changed. "I know that you intentionally put her here for her own good too. You must know that her enemies are everywhere. Even my family is after her.""I just wanted to fulfill my wife's wish. To live in peace." Jaxter didn't seem to care what Jacob said. They stood in front of the steel door that was tightly closed."You can imprison him anywhere. Maybe underground, in a secluded place. You could have even just elimin

    "Rui a lot of things happened before you were born. Both your adoptive family and your biological family. We may not be able to be like most parents. Our previous lives will leave you dumbfounded. But, you don't have to think about what happened before you were born. I just want to say, whatever ever happened to me, I will do it again as long as I can get a daughter like you." Jacob held the princess's hand very tightly. Staring at her hazel nets that looked so beautiful and drowning."I knew you would ask about what happened to your real mother." Jacob pursed his lips. He took a deep breath and grabbed something from the nightstand drawer beside his bed. That made him frown. "This is a picture of your mother. I don't want you to not know her."Jacob handed over the cell phone he took earlier. He asked Roberto to find any photos of Ice that might still exist. And, luckily, there was one of her when she was still undercover in Laurence's group.Rui took the cell phone in her father's ha

    "Eh? You." Rui was startled when she came out of her father's hospital room and saw the figure of a man who seemed to be walking towards her place."Yes. I heard your father was taken to the hospital, is he okay?" asked Arzhiel who immediately came to this hospital when he heard the news."Yes. But he's fine, he just woke up." Rui smiled faintly at this man who could make her heart feel uneasy."So, why aren't you inside?" Arzhiel wrinkled his forehead. "Do you want to do something?""No, I didn't. Mrs. Hayle and Clay's father wanted me to go out for a moment. They want to talk to Jacob's father. So I'll just go out." Rui said it in a slightly mischievous tone. I don't know, it's hard to act casual in front of people we like."Oh, I see, so I can't go in there yet either." Arzhiel looked at the door of the room. "I saw this little cafe near the hospital garden. It's not far, want to wait there instead?"Rui hearing that was a little startled and raising her eyebrows, she nodded slowly
