"Mama wants to ask about what?"

Alden became curious. He wanted to know what his mother really wanted to ask or clarify about Aurora.

"Come here," Zendaya waved. She asked her son to come closer and sit next to her. Side by side and facing each other. "There's something Mama needs to clarify."

"About what?"

"About Aurora, Savana's former daughter-in-law."

Alden took a deep breath. He understood, more or less, that his mother might have been triggered and perhaps preoccupied with Savana's remarks at the party earlier.

"What's the matter? Didn't Alden already inform you that Aurora is actually widowed?"

"Yes," Zendaya nodded. She didn't deny this issue.

Before, the two of them had indeed had serious discussions. Alden had been candid and sought Zendaya's permission before daring to approach Aurora again.

"Do you remember Aurora, Mama?" Alden asked back then.

"Aurora Harperwood? Your first love?"

"And forever will remain Alden's true love."

"Why? Why talk about her all of a sudden? Did

    It's been a week since the unpleasant incident that occurred during Alden's mother's birthday celebration. Although Aurora's body was physically present in the hospital, her mind still lingered far behind in that unpleasant incident.Velia had tried to console Aurora several times, urging her to forget and just focus on maintaining her relationship with Alden without overthinking. But Aurora, being Aurora, could be stubborn at times when given advice."Don't bother yourself, Aurora," Velia grumbled. Thirty minutes before it was time to go home, she once again approached Aurora, reminding her to put an end to the anxiety and distress plaguing her friend's mind at the moment."What else can I do? I'm worried," Aurora admitted. She acknowledged that she was worried. So far, she and Alden could still meet freely, maintaining their relationship as if nothing had happened. But she still feared the repercussions of the commotion Savana had caused."Actually, I'm worried that the slander Sava

    Thirty minutes after arriving home and freshening up, Aurora found Asher purposely stopping by her house.Earlier at the hospital, she briefly explained that something had happened and they needed to discuss it. Asher immediately decided not to postpone it until tomorrow. He thought that whatever the problem was, it should be resolved as soon as possible."So, what important matter do you want to discuss with me?"In the TV room, they gathered. Sitting casually on the sofa while enjoying the warm tea served on the table."It's about my ex-mother-in-law.""Savana, the crazy one, right?"Aurora nodded. Despite wanting to deny or avoid it, the truth was that the middle-aged woman's behavior was indeed crazy and extremely disruptive."Yes. I want to have a serious talk with you because it's about her.""What else has she done?"Actually, it took a lot of courage for Aurora to disclose something personal to Asher. Not because she was afraid, but more out of a sense of respect, considering

    Alden was stunned. He was sure he hadn't misheard what his mother just said. The firm tone of her words made him immediately question."What? What did Mom just say?""From now on, you have to keep your distance from Aurora," Zendaya repeated, feeling compelled. There was no change whatsoever from her previous statement."Why does Mom suddenly ask me to keep my distance from Aurora? What's wrong?"Despite the unpleasant incident at his mother's birthday party a few days ago, Alden didn't think there was any major issue. Zendaya even reassured him that everything was fine.So why today, after a week has passed without any incidents, out of the blue, his mother suddenly asked him to distance himself from a woman he clearly cared about?"Mom..." Alden called out when he found his mother silent. "What's really going on?"Zendaya looked visibly conflicted. Her expression was hard for Alden to read. He couldn't guess what had actually happened to his mother. Was there a big problem or someth

    Alden glanced at Aurora's figure from a distance. Leaning against the wall with both hands folded in front of his chest, he observed how busy Aurora was handling patients.Honestly, Alden's heart warmed. He enjoyed the sight this afternoon. But when he remembered his mother's request instructing him to keep his distance from the woman he loved most, his heart instantly ached.Alden patiently waited, praying day and night for a chance to be reunited with Aurora. And when he felt that his prayers had been answered, suddenly a trial came."I won't do it! No matter what, I will never distance myself from Aurora."In front of his mother, Alden made his stance clear. Despite being warned, he insisted he would not distance himself even an inch from the woman he had loved for so long."Does that mean you don't love Mama?"Alden laughed bitterly. He responded to his mother's words casually."There are many ways to show my love and devotion to you, Mama. If you want, I would even give the world

    "Darling, I've safely arrived at Mama's house."After parking his car right in front of his mother's house, Alden didn't forget to immediately contact Aurora. Giving her the news that he had arrived safely at his destination.For him, giving updates was important. Even though not asked, Alden tried to be attentive. He realized that women feel appreciated and valued just by being given such acts of service."After this, I'm going to shower and then like usual, I'll get ready for dinner with Mama. If you're not busy tonight, I'll call again before bed.""Yeah," Aurora responded from the other end. Unlike before, she didn't refuse or show any objection. "Okay then, just go on with your activities. I also need to get ready to cook and finish up the end-of-month report. If I'm not asleep tonight, I'll definitely pick up the phone.""Alright, I'm going in now. We'll continue later.""Yeah, Honey."At that moment, Alden burst into laughter. De

    "Alden... Mom wants you to apologize personally to Aunt Riana and also Regina."That morning, while enjoying his breakfast, Alden immediately looked up. Pausing his chewing, the man stared intently at his mother. Without needing explanation, his expression was that of someone full of questions."Apologize? For what?""Of course, for your rude attitude and response."Alden sighed and then chuckled bitterly. It was the first time giving a refusal was considered rude. After all, what was more impolite, refusing to be set up without prior consent?"No... I won't apologize. I'm sure I haven't done anything wrong. Besides, what's wrong with refusing something that doesn't align with our heart and mind?"Zendaya knew that her son was the type of man who was firm and steadfast in his convictions. Once he said A, his choice wouldn't change to B, let alone C."But at least you could respond to Aunt Riana's words with pleasantries. Didn't you see her

    After a long time, this morning Aurora intentionally went to work together with Asher. Moreover, last night her younger brother contacted her, saying that there was an important matter they both needed to discuss in person.Aurora guessed that Asher must want to talk about Savana. She became certain because in the past few days, her younger brother had been dealing with issues she had been burdened with and wanted to end them promptly."What do you want to discuss?"In the car, on the way to the hospital, Aurora asked directly. She wanted to make sure what would be discussed or perhaps needed by her brother."Have Aunt Savana contacted or harassed you through text messages lately?"Aurora shook her head. As far as she remembered, she had never received any harassment or attacks directed through text messages or phone calls. Even if there were any, Aurora wouldn't stay silent."Fortunately, there's none. Besides, I admit Aunt Savana is too bo

    Upon returning to the room, she found Alden sitting quietly waiting for her."Aurora..."Alden called out as Aurora entered the room. Worry lines were clearly etched on his handsome face."Are you okay?"Aurora didn't respond immediately. She chose to sit herself down first at her desk chair, then gave the answer Alden had been waiting for since earlier."Not really."Sensing something amiss, Alden then rose from his seat. Stepping closer, he pulled the chair right in front of Aurora's desk."What's wrong with you? Are you sick? Or something else? Or could it be that I did something wrong?"Aurora sighed lazily, seeming reluctant to speak much with the man in front of her."What do you think yourself?""I feel like your attitude is indeed strange and I'm sure something is going on. Since last night, you haven't answered my calls or messages. This morning, there was no news, and suddenly you're going to work with Ash

Upon reaching the front of the room, he found Velia and Asher already standing there, waiting.Alden approached, wanting to ensure his wife's condition for himself. Despite faithfully waiting all along, he hadn't noticed anything strange about her all day. Now, he couldn't believe that Aurora had fainted like this out of the blue. If he had known something was wrong, he would have been the first to tell her to rest."Asher... Velia," Alden called out, his face still marked with worry. "How's Aurora? What happened? Why did she suddenly faint like this?"Asher shook his head, also unsure of what caused his sister to lose consciousness. Then Alden turned to Velia, who answered his curiosity."I think Aurora's just exhausted, Doc. Since this afternoon, I've noticed her looking a bit pale. She complained about back pain and seemed really tired, constantly moving from the second floor to the ground floor."

    Alden just got home around eight o'clock at night. A bit worried, the man strode quickly towards the bedroom. He had been trying to reach Aurora since earlier, but instead of getting a response, it seemed like his wife was intentionally ignoring him.Alden had asked Velia, his colleague, who said that Aurora had been home since late afternoon. Also, confirming Aurora's presence through the house assistant, they confirmed that the lady had indeed been home since then.What puzzled Alden was why Aurora was ignoring him. Was his wife busy? Resting? Or perhaps angry and upset with him?That's why Alden wanted to make sure. Rushing into the room, he found Aurora sitting on the edge of the bed, her head bowed. Faintly, he could hear sobbing coming from her."Sweetheart..."Alden quickly approached. With a puzzled feeling, he sat down in front of his wife."What's wrong?" he asked with concern, clearly anxious. Afraid that something bad might have happened to her."Why are you crying like th

    Aurora sighed wearily as she stared at the pregnancy test she held. The two red lines she had been hoping for seemed nowhere in sight, despite her numerous efforts.She wondered how many times she had tried this. It had been almost six months since she married Alden, but signs of pregnancy had yet to appear.Honestly, Aurora had been worried. There was a fear lurking in her mind that the rumors about her difficulty in conceiving might be true."Don't judge Alex. Who knows, maybe you also have difficulty getting pregnant or having children," Aurora remembered Savana's words vividly. Although they were long ago and she had initially dismissed them, recalling them now felt painful. Perhaps this was the curse Savana had given her."Just wait until after you get married. I'm sure you'll also have difficulty having children. So, don't think you're so great by blaming Alex as the reason you don't have offspring and eventually your marriage falls apart," Savana had said.Yet, Alden had tried

Truly, he wanted to enjoy the joy of life when called with endearing terms that delighted the ears.However, as his consciousness gradually faded, this time Alden felt something warm touching his lips. Opening his eyes slowly, he found Aurora, who had just finished unraveling a kiss, then smiled sweetly right in front of his face."Wake up, my dear husband. They said today we're going to pick up Mom and then accompany her to a charity event. You haven't forgotten, right?"Alden nodded. The man smiled."Yeah. I haven't forgotten. But, by the way, who was it that called me 'my dear husband'? Was it you? Or was I just dreaming?"Aurora sighed. She pinched Alden's cheek fondly. Hoping that he would realize he wasn't dreaming."That wasn't a dream, my dear husband. But yes, it was me who called you."
