173At 7:30pm, Axel returned to the cafe. The waitress was already standing in front of the door of the cafe, which now read 'Closed' The woman smiled and greeted Axel who got out of the car. She bowed. "Sorry, it looks like you've been waiting a long time. I'm sorry, I was taking care of my brother who was lying in the hospital. I'm late to pick you up, Miss." Axel said. Now, the tall man was standing right in front of the cafe waitress. "No problem, sir, it won't take five minutes. And I just closed this cafe." "Ah, thank goodness, alright then. Let's go," Axel said. The two of them walked towards the car, the woman hesitantly got into Axel's car. "Is the ac too cold, Miss?" Axel asked, as she rubbed her palms together. The woman shyly nodded her head. "I'll reduce the temperature," Axel said. Axel adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner in his car, so that the car was not so cold. While the woman was now comfortable, she rested her head on the passenger seat. The black

175As for Elena, she nudged Axel's arm with her elbow. "It wouldn't be bad if you married Aurel. Azzura needs a mother figure, Axel," the idea of setting Axel up with Aurel suddenly occurred to Elena. The almost sixty-year-old woman seemed very sure that Aurel was good for Axel. Likewise for Azzura. "Mom, why are you suddenly discussing this. Axel hasn't thought about it. There is a mother, right? The existence of Elena's mother can also provide a mother figure for Azzura." Axel said. It seemed like the man was reluctant to discuss marriage. Even though. All humans need a life partner and grow old together. "I also don't know how many years I have left. At least if you're gone, you'll feel calm because your family is complete, there are father, mother, and children in it. Then, what are you waiting for, Axel, love will come with time. I'm also sure Miss Le will be happy to hear this news, she will smile in heaven at the news that you will start a new life." Elena said. She looked

177 Two weeks later, Axel, dressed in a white suit, walked down the aisle. With a woman he never expected to tie the knot with. Yes, she was Aurel. She wore a white wedding dress with elegant beading and patterns. Hair ornaments that are so neat and very beautiful, she continues to smile, the joy in her heart cannot be expressed in just words, now she has successfully married the man who made her fall in love for the first time. Holding a bouquet of white flowers. They laughed as all the guests applauded. After the wedding vows were said, Axel briefly kissed Aurel's lips on the altar. This was the first time Aurel had received a kiss from Axel. Her heart was beating very fast when those lips landed on hers. His eyes filled with tears. "Look at father Maurer. Now little Aurel has grown up. And. Exactly today Aurel is married to the man who made Aurel fall in love for the first time." Aurel's heart said. After a brief kiss Axel took a few steps back, he was nervous. "

179"Yes, I'm fine, Aurel. Don't worry. I fell asleep while soaking in the bathtub!" came Axel's voice to Aurel. The man was wide-eyed in shock, he had even fallen asleep for almost an hour on the page. His palms turned blue from the cold. It was very cool in Milan at that time. "Thank goodness," Aurel said, he pressed his beating chest, of course afraid something would happen to Axel. He stepped back and sat on the makeup chair, again wiping off the traces of makeup that had stuck to his face.KrtttAxel came out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe, with wet hair that doubled his good looks. Aurel gave him a glance and he went into the bathroom to wash his face. After washing her face, she came out and applied a night cream. Apparently, Axel was not in the room. "Where is he? Must be in Azzura's room." She said. She extinguished the room lights after applying the cream, then slowly laid herself down on the king size bed, she lay staring at the ceiling of her room which was expose

181Axel's POV. The sunlight comes in through the window of the room. I feel something falling on my chest. Making me short of breath. I slowly opened my eyelids. How surprised I was to see this smooth white hand like vermicelli already perched right on top of my chest. I turned my head to the side, surprised to see Aurel already lying beside me. "Aurel," I called, her breathing regular as she was still asleep. I tried to move Aurel's hand from above my chest to my side. After moving Aurel's hand. I immediately got up. When I lift my head, it feels heavy. I pulled back the blanket that covered my entire body. How surprised I was to see the state of my naked body. "Oh my!" My chest was beating so fast, was it me and Aurel last night? Trying to remember the scene last night. I remember drinking on the balcony, afterwards getting drunk and vaguely remembering the moment I walked into the room. Hugging Miss Le. "What? Oh my God," I said. I got out of bed immediately. Even my clot
