Marco could only remain silent as he watched Freya run straight towards Abian and embrace him tightly. Abian, in turn, accepted the hug from his little princess. "Hey, you smell nice and look beautiful. It seems like you're ready,” Abian's words made Freya nod her head. "Of course, I can't wait to go to the city," Freya replied, making Abian smile again. Freya then shifted her gaze towards Marco, who was still standing not far from them. "Oh, I forgot to mention. Uncle will also be joining us in the city. Won't it be more fun with more people, Uncle?" Freya's remark made Abian look towards Marco with a hardened jaw. Though not explicitly, Marco showed his anger. However, Abian knew very well that the arrogant man was currently trying his best to contain his anger. "Yes, that's a great idea. Where is your mother?" Abian asked, making Freya look towards Letta's bedroom door. "It seems like Mom is just finishing getting ready. We can wait," Freya's words made Abian nod. Freya then g
Marco was slightly disappointed because of Letta's earlier request to accompany Abian first to the cellar, as it was unlikely that Letta would ask Abian to handle everything alone. "Will it take long, Mom?" Freya asked, making Letta glance at Abian for a moment. "No, maybe just a few hours, perhaps,” Letta said, making Freya immediately put on a sad face, prompting Abian to approach Letta. "It's okay, I've already said that it's not that I can handle everything better. Right now, you take Freya straight to the city park. After that, doesn't she have a shopping list she wants, not to mention she wants to see the fireworks from atop the windmill," Abian said, seemingly aware of Freya's schedule for today, which had been promised by Letta weeks ago. Because there was a food festival and some children's games until late at night, Freya seemed very much looking forward to today."But I can't leave you alone to handle everything,” Letta said, seemingly unsure of what decision to make. Sh
Letta immediately got out of the taxi when they arrived at the park. She managed to finish everything quickly, even though there was just a little left. But Abian offered to finish it for her. That's why Letta could accompany Freya to play in the park. Letta scanned the entire park, observing the children playing with bubbles and other games, trying to sharpen her vision. Letta didn't know why the park seemed so crowded today, making it a bit difficult for her to see where Freya and Marco were. This left Letta no choice but to enter the crowd to search for her daughter. Eventually, the familiar shout not far from her made Letta turn around as Freya ran toward her, looking rather messy, which just made Letta hold back her smile. "Did you look for me?" Freya asked, and Letta nodded her head. "Yes, where were you?" Letta asked, reaching out to wipe the side of Freya's face and her mouth, which was covered in traces of ice cream. “I just had some ice cream, do I look messy?” Freya a
Freya then looked up, seeing the Ferris wheel in front of her, which was round and tall. It made Freya really impatient to ride it. "Mom, can we ride it now?" Freya asked, turning to look at Letta and Marco, who were sitting not far from her. "Don't you want to see the fireworks show while we're there?” Letta asked, making Freya nod. "If that's the case, we have to wait a little longer. If we ride it now, it'll be too early,” Letta said again, making Freya immediately walk back and sit right in the middle between Marco and Letta. "We can rest for a while. After that, we'll ride it. How about that?" Marco said, making Freya nod. There was no other way because she really wanted to see the fireworks show while riding the Ferris wheel. Freya then chose to eat some snacks she bought, like cotton candy, ice cream bread, and other sweet foods. For today, Letta did allow Freya to eat as many sweets as she wanted, but afterward, Letta always limited the sweets for Freya."Mom, try this f
Letta could only stare at her reflection in the mirror, pausing for a moment while closing her eyes. However, as Letta thought about how, after so long, she had been so close to Marco, Letta immediately moved her fingers to her lips, which still felt warm for some reason. Marco's scent was still vivid, making Letta widen her eyes.Letta then frustratedly ran her hand through her hair. Why did she get carried away like that, to the point where she didn't push Marco to release their lip lock? It wasn't the passionate kiss they used to engage in; it was just their lips touching each other. However, for some reason, Letta couldn't even bring herself to pull away from Marco. Until finally, a knock on the bathroom door was heard, making Letta turn around as she saw Freya opening the door."What's wrong, honey?" Letta asked."Don't we have to go meet Uncle? Mom has prepared soup and porridge for him, right?" Freya said, almost making Letta forget about it."Alright, then, let me get ready fi
266.145. I can't just leave you like this Letta then took the warm towel again after Abian finished the soup in his bowl, with Letta having to urge him to finish it. "Lie down again, your body temperature hasn't dropped yet," Letta said, causing Abian to stop Letta's hand movements by gripping her palm. "Enough, it won't lower my body temperature. I'm not like Freya, who will immediately get better just by using that compress," Abian said, making Letta click her tongue in irritation. “Well, at least I'm doing something for you, right?" Letta said, making Abian finally reach out his hand. "I think I need something else," Abian said, making Letta just stare at him questioningly, until Letta didn't know what Abian was thinking when he suddenly moved closer. Letta felt foolish again. Letta didn't know what was going on in her mind, not knowing how to respond when Abian suddenly pressed his lips against hers, making Letta only realize it after a few seconds. “What are you doing?” Let
267.146.we can be happyLetta tried to avoid Marco, who was now following her and constantly blocking her path. Letta also didn't want to fight in someone else's house, especially when Abian was sick. This made Letta rush to her house, although in the midst of her steps, Marco once again prevented her. Fortunately, this wasn't a crowded place, and there was only a vineyard illuminated by dim lights, allowing Letta to express whatever she was feeling to Marco."You hurt me by gripping me so tightly,” Letta said, making Marco finally try to loosen his grip, but not letting go even a bit. Marco was afraid that Letta would leave him again, and it would be difficult for Marco to find Letta again if she completely got away."Please, listen to me first," Marco said, making Letta try to bite her lower lip as hard as she could. Letta didn't know, perhaps she would hurt herself, but that was all she could do to express her anger right now."There's nothing more we can talk about. I don't want t
Marco was slightly startled when someone suddenly knocked on the car window, prompting him to blink and focus his gaze on the window. Letta was trying to peer into the car as the car Marco was driving couldn't be seen from the outside. Marco lowered the car window, revealing Letta's displeased expression as she glared at him. "Don't tell me you've been sleeping in this car all night?" Letta asked, making Marco look around before responding, "Yes, as you can see." "I apologize. Are you bothered by my presence? But I'm not taking up much space in your yard. This car isn't that big, right?" Marco replied, making Letta snort. "That's not the problem, you stalker. What if people around here see you? What if they say you're a stalker or a bad person?" Letta said, making Marco smile. "What people? Aren't there just a few houses here? Besides, look at the distance. I'm just being cautious, in case there's a bad person who might harm you,” Marco said with his absurd reasoning, leaving Lett
