Rodleigh's POV:"Mommy, please kiss Daddy!" Cianna's eyes widened at what Lessandra said. I never expect it from her too. I don't know where she get that idea either."We will close our eyes, aren't we Lessandra?" Lessanna added and Lessandra easily agreed.I can see Cianna's anxiety because of Lessandra's dare to her. I’m also just waiting to see if she’ll follow her daughter’s dare or not."Okay. I'll kiss your Dad." She said smiling before looking into my eyes. Her eyes are talking to me, she's like, 'I need to do this Rod, I hope you don't mind?' so I just nodded at her.Suddenly my heartbeat quickened. With the reason Cianna kissing me, I don’t know how I should feel right now."Go Mommy!" The twins cheered her up. I couldn’t help myself from laughing at our children’s reaction. They're like just cheering their friend the way they cheered their mom."Rod, is it okay?" She asked me. I just nodded at her."Okay, can you please turn to the left? I'm just going to kiss you on your ch
Rodleigh's POV:The breeze is cold tonight so I decided to stay first outside Cianna's house. As I quietly inhaled the cold breeze, I looked up, there’s a lot of shining stars and it was beautiful to watch."Hey, what are you thinking?” I immediately saw Cianna come out of the house. Maybe the twins are already asleep so here she is now outside."Nothing, I'm just looking at the stars, they're so beautiful to look at... Like you." I don’t know if she heard the last thing I said, I meant to soften my voice.She was also now looking up at the sky while smiling. I was so carried away by her smiles that I just realized myself smiling as well as I watched her."You're right. They're beautiful and amazing to watch." She said while still looking to the stars."Rod?" She calls my attention. I automatically looked at her again. She's now staring at me intently."Yes?" I asked her while looking at her as well as how she was staring at me."Do you believe in shooting stars? Do you think it's tru
Cianna's POV:"I'm sorry, it was me who kissed Cianna, please don't be mad at her." I heard Rod said that to Rum. After Rum found us kissing I left immediately. When I decided to go back I found them talking."Just shut up and leave!" Rum shouted at him. Rod didn't speak anymore, he left immediately as Rum had said.When Rod left I approached Rum. I want to ask him why he is here and what he needs."Why are you here?" I asked him calmly. He didn't answer right away, he just looked me in the eyes."I'm sorry for whatever you came up with." I told him."Cianna, admit it, do you still love that man?" he asked me angrily."It's none of your business, Rum! What if I even love him? Does it matter to you?" I asked him sarcastically. It seems that his interference in my life is wrong."It is, Cianna! I'm your doctor and I am just protecting you! I don't want to stress you out because that will not good in your health!" He shouted angrily at me."After all, my illness is getting worse, why don
Cianna's POV:When one of my Mom and Dad's housemaids opened the gate for us, I was suddenly nervous so I breathe deeply.I looked at my hand that Dr. Rumzell suddenly touched."It's okay, I'm here." he said trying to calm me. I took another deep breath before I nodded at him."Cianna, my dear daughter!" Mom immediately greeted me with her tight hug."It's a pity you didn't catch up with your Dad." Mom said frowning. Dr. Rumzell and I looked at each other. Maybe it's not the right time to tell them my current situation."Mom, it's Dr. Rumzell. He's the one who came here before." I introduced Dr. Rumzell to my mom."Yes, I remembered him. How are you?" Mom asked him."I'm fine, thank you." Dr. Rumzell replied."Let's come inside, I'll make some tea." She invited me and Dr. Rumzell inside.When we got inside and already in the living room, I asked Mom where is Dad."Mom, where is Dad?""He's on a business trip, it's out of the country, maybe he'll be gone for a few weeks." Mom answered.
Cianna's POV:As in Thalia's text message I went to the address she said. I don't know what kind of place it is, whether it's a tourist attraction or private property. There aren't as many people in this area.The scenery here is beautiful, the place is full of various kinds of plants and there are beautiful flowers.The air is also fresh here, the lawn is also green. Perfect place for sightseeing, maybe this is a sightseeing for tourists, I guess.When I saw Thalia I walked closer to her. But my eyes widened at what she opened up to me.Slap!"Cianna, how dare you!"My eyes widened after Thalia slapped me. What is this woman's problem again?"What's that slap of yours for, Thalia?" I asked her angrily. I just can't accept that she slapped me like that."You're such a liar!" She shouted at me again. When she was ready to slap me for the second time, I immediately averted my face."What's the matter with you? Is it still about Rodleigh? God, Thalia! Rod is all yours!" I yell at her in
Cianna's POV:I'm the only one here at home right now. Earlier, after what happened, auntie Carmilla said that she would take the children for a walk first so that I could rest and think.Ding-dong!As I was currently sitting in the living room the doorbell suddenly rang. I stood up to see who was there outside. It's impossible for them auntie Carmilla to be outside because they might spend the night.When I saw who was outside my heartbeat suddenly fastened. I don’t know what he’s doing here right now. Maybe he’s here to visit the kids, the only problem is they’re not here."Rod, I'm sorry but the kids aren't here now—"My words was interrupted when he suddenly approached me and hugged me tightly."Cianna, why? Why did you hide from me what you were going through?" he asked while still hugging me."What do you mean?" I asked him calmly. He slowly let go of my hug and he looked me in the eyes."How could you not tell me about your illness, Cianna?" He's now crying while asking me.I s
Cianna's POV:"Why did you hide this from us, Cianna?" Mom asked crying. I had explained to her earlier but she could not accept my reason. Whatever I stopped her from crying I couldn’t stop her. She's crying too bad."Mom, I already told you my reasons." I said softly. I never thought that what I said would affect my mother so badly. She blames herself, because she said that she hasn't been a good mother to me and she hasn't done her motherhood properly."I'm sorry. I thought I could do it." I added before I hugged my Mom tightly."Promise, I won't do it again." I told her. Suddenly she stopped sobbing then she looked at me."You have to! And I will never leave you alone again, from now on, I'll just be here next to you!" Mom said childishly as she continues from crying."Yes. Not anymore." I said then I hugged her again so that she would stop sobbing completely."Cianna, can I talk to you?" Mom let go of my hug, we also turned to Papa at the same time. His face was serious and there
Cianna's POV:I am currently outside the house while savoring the fragrant smell of auntie Carmilla’s flowering plants. It also feels good to touch the fresh air on my skin. Because of the comfort I feel, I close my eyes."You're just here." I was stunned when I felt Rod's two arms twisted around my waist. He hugs me now from behind me. I can also feel his lips touching my hair. He smells and kisses my hair causing me to close my eyes again."Tell me, what do you feel right now?" He asked me a gentle question. He still couldn't stop sniffing the smell of my hair."I feel relieved and secured." I answered his question. I heard comfort from him.To be honest, ever since my whole family found out about my illness everything seems to have been easy for me. I am even more filled with hope because of the love and hope they give me. I have found that a heavy object is much lighter if you have an assistant or companion in lifting it."Thank you." I told him as I hugged his arms."Thank you fo
