BXBX NOVEL Chapter 50 - Togetherness
Arsha and Shandra are having dinner at a restaurant near the hospital where Ethan is being treated. They were going there but stopped short for dinner.
"Honey, when do you have time to go to Paris with me?" asked Arsha as she sliced his steak. He wants a romantic relationship like Luna and Ethan. But, Shandra is the typical wife who is too workaholic. Even Luna\'s sister didn\'t want to be invited to a honeymoon after marriage.
"I don\'t know," replied Shandra then ate her spaghetti.
Arsha sighed. "We almost have nephews but we don\'t have kids ourselves. It feels weird to me." Arsha wore a displeased expression.
"We didn\'t have to do honeymoon just to have a child, even we make love many times every night," said Shandra by raising her eyebrows looking at Arsha.
"Honey, don\'t you understand? I just want us to have quality time together. Forgetting work and making love in new places," explained Arsha.
Shandra sighs then put her fork on the plate because she has finished eating. "I\'m focused on Luna\'s problem. It\'s a shame if I not helped."
"Luna is fine and Edward isn\'t bothering her anymore. Ethan will protect her too. Your sister is married, she is not your responsibility anymore." Arsha emphasized. Shandra loved Luna too much, to ignore her happiness.
Shandra touches Arsha\'s hands.
"We\'re going to Paris. but I want to see who was behind Ethan\'s accident. I have to make sure it\'s Edward\'s doing or not," she said pleasantly, hoping that her husband would be understanding.
"Well, when their problem is over. You must prioritize me!" Finally, Arsha agreed to Shandra\'s request. because his love is too deep, he always obeys what his wife wants, even though occasionally he feels inattentive because he is always left busy at work.
"We continue to the hospital now," said Shandra as she got out of the chair.
"Okay," answered Arsha. he immediately called the servant and paid for the food he had eaten with Shandra earlier.
Shandra and Arsha immediately headed for the hospital. However, when he passed a cake shop and various chocolate snacks, Shandra asked her husband to stop the car at the shop.
"Why you ask to stop here?" asked Shandra.
"I want to buy a snack," answered Shandra. She immediately got out of the car and bought some chocolate snacks. Hem, maybe she is also a chocolate lover like her sister.
finished shopping for snacks, Shandra immediately returned to the car and asked Arsha to continue to the hospital.
"Why do you insist on believing that Edward did it?" asked Arsha while focusing on driving.
"I can see he\'s not a good guy, ever since he became Luna\'s lover. he could have accidentally made Ethan hurt, then seduced Luna again." Shandra answered confidently.
"Is it possible, a brother could harm his younger brother? It feels very strange." Arsha is curious and doesn\'t agree with Shandra.
"They are just half brothers. Sometimes, half-siblings must envy one of them. Ethan owns everything, whereas Edward, only owns a small company from his father\'s legacy."
Arsha nodded in understanding
"That\'s right, as far as I know, Edward doesn\'t have any biological parents anymore."
"Luna\'s said, his mother died when he was a baby, then his father married a rich girl, and Ethan was born," said Shandra.
"Then, what\'s the problem, the rich from the start is Ethan\'s mother, right?" asked Arsha. He doesn\'t understand Shandra\'s way of thinking.
Shandra sighs changes her position to staring at her husband. "Think about it, Edward went bankrupt and was forced to marry Viona to save his company, while Ethan succeeds and marries Luna, who Edward loves so much. From there I thought, maybe envy over Edward\'s feelings." Shandra explained in as much detail as possible about what she felt.
"That is true." Arsha nodded in understanding but hesitated again. "But, we don\'t know for sure that the accident was due to someone or Ethan\'s negligence."
"Ethan said the car\'s brakes failed. I think it\'s strange if his luxury car failed, while the previous day he drove it safe," said Shandra while re-confirming her position facing forward.
"Hem ... don\'t think too hard like a detective, let the police will investigate." arsha smiled as he stretched out his hand to Shandra, then stroked her hair. He was exasperated by his wife who acted like a detective guessing at the main culprit.
Shandra blushed, her cheeks flushed red and she bit her lower lip. "Do not say like that. I just reveal what\'s stuck in my heart and try to find the truth."
"That means detective."
"No, I am still Shandra Ananta, your wife!"
"Haha yes yes, you are indeed my wife, a wife who will not be replaced."
"Don\'t brag!"
"Do you want to be replaced?" asked Arsha with a raised eyebrow.
"Of course not. If you want to replace me with another woman, I\'ll kick your junior!" Shandra replied curtly.
"Hahaha ... then, believe me, I\'m not flirting. This is natural from the ground of my heart." Arsha chuckled as he continued to focus on driving.
"Okay. I\'ve always believed in you, you\'re the best husband." Shandra pinches Arsha\'s cheek.
"Therefore, the best husband must be treated well too. Fulfilled all his wishes."
Shandra nodded in understanding and understood her husband insinuated about the honeymoon again "Yes, I understand, we will going to Paris and I will ask permission for a very long leave specifically for quality time with you."
Arsha only responded to Shandra\'s words with a relieved smile. relieved that his wife promised to please him.
Because they were cool chatting, they didn\'t feel like they had arrived at the hospital. they immediately walked towards Ethan\'s room by following the corridors until they reached the VIP room.
When they enter, they see a room that looks not as quiet as usual. There are Vira, David, Dina, Alexa who accompany Ethan and Luna.
"Sis..." Luna turned to her sister who had just arrived. Dina and Alexa also pay attention to Luna\'s sister. Ah, they must not know her.
Shandra smiles entering the room while carrying a paper bag containing the snacks she bought. Meanwhile, Arsha sat next to David, because they also knew each other.
"Mom this is Shandra, my sister." Luna introduces Shandra to Dina. "That\'s Arsha, her husband."
Dina smiles and nods understandingly, while Shandra and Arsha greet her and Alexa immediately.
"No wonder it she looks like you, dear." Dina notices Shandra\'s face, which is very similar to Luna\'s. it\'s just that her style is different from Luna, she seems formal and neat because she\'s a career woman.
"Nice to meet you, Auntie." Shandra sits beside Dina. She noticed Alexa who looked cool playing with her smartphone. Uh. the tomboyish girl seemed relaxed about Ethan\'s guests.
"She\'s Alexa, Ethan\'s cousin," explained Dina when Shandra glanced at Alexa.
The Alexa only smiled briefly at Shandra, then returned to playing with her smartphone.
"I brought a snack here." shandra opened her paper bag and took out all the chocolate snacks to the table.
"Wow ... that\'s right, I\'m in need of a snack right now." Alexa immediately took the snack.
"You just know what I want." Luna also immediately took it. The others also took. they all snack together while chatting.
Luna is still faithfully sitting next to Ethan while eating chocolate snacks. Occasionally she also feeds her husband.
"I\'m going to be a chocolate lover from today," said Ethan as he ate the snack that Luna gave him.
"Me too, have liked what my wife likes, since marriage," said David while glancing at Vira, who was playing with her smartphone while eating chocolate.
"Because chocolate has a special taste," said Vira.
"Agree, bitter but sweet." Shandra comes in to talk.
"Remember, when you have children, don\'t keep giving them chocolates. Their teeth will be brittle," said Dina.
Shandra and Arsha glanced at Luna who was pregnant, as did David and Vira.
"That means homework for Luna and Ethan, hahaha ...." Alexa chuckled as she glanced at Luna.
Ethan and Luna just smiled at who cornered them. It is not something that is bothersome or sad. Because they are even happy that they will soon have a baby. Regarding chocolate, Luna can still eat and hide her stock in the cupboard or refrigerator one day...
