Finally, the long-awaited day arrived. A happy smile was clearly engraved on Sienna's lips.Her pure white face implied a happy hue. Her twenty-five years of waiting would pay off today."Are you ready, Honey?" Maks grasped Sienna's fingers tightly. Sienna nodded her head with a smile etched on her face.Currently Sienna and Maks were on their way to a restaurant that Bernard had booked. Sienna's heart really kept beating. Her brain kept thinking what she should do when she met her parents later.'Should I run to hug them later, ah no, Maks will get angry if I run while pregnant like this. Or should I just say hello?' Sienna was really nervous. She squeezedher hands and felt uneasy. Her feelings were mixed. Excited, happy, angry, and sad all mixed together.Maks saw that and put his arm around his wife, giving her strength that everything would be okay."Are you nervous?""Yes...I don't know what I'm feeling right now, Maks. I want to cry but I can't, I want to keep laughing but I ca
Mr. and Mrs. Bura returned to the shop where they lived and earned a living. Their puffy faces looked more radiant as happy tears came out. It was a relief to see the daughter they abandoned living well. Mr. and Mrs. Bura had no idea how Sienna suffered after the departure of her foster father.Living with her foster mother Mrs. Kev made Sienna's happiness disappear instantly. She was treated like a slave by the Kev family. Sleeping in the warehouse, being a maid and not being fed properly. Luckily, Sienna can still work part-time and continue her undergraduate studies in design.Kev's Family HomeGood news came to Kev's family, that they were all released from prison, and Mrs. Kev was able to move into her luxurious house, which had been confiscated by the government."Mom... where are you?" Hera's screaming voice echoed throughout the rooms of Kev's residence."Mom... you have to know this. This can't be allowed." Hera ran to her mother's room impatiently. She opened the door loudly
Night fell and Maks was back home. He is as fragrant and handsome as ever. Siena started sniffing her husband's fragrant body."Honey, can you stop sniffing my body like that." Maks giggled as Siena sniffed his nape relentlessly."That's ticklish hahaha... " Maks could no longer stand his wife's behavior."This is your baby's wish, not mine." Siena did not flinch even though Maks started to pull Siena's body into his arms."Yes, I know. But not in that place. Ticklish." Maks couldn't stand it anymore. After a while it was not only ticklish that Maks felt but something woke up and asked to be put to sleep.Maks pulled Siena into his arms, locking them not too tightly so she wouldn't do the same thing again."Honey, let go." Sienna rebelled asking to be let go"No! Stay here and sniff my chest all you want.""I don't want to. I want the scruff." Siena was still trying, wiggling her body to get out of Maks' embrace which was actually comfortable for her."If you keep sniffing my nape, so
"I don't know yet. I haven't interacted with them much. When the time is right I'll introduce them to you," Siena replied. She didn't think anything bad of what Mrs. Kev would do to her biological parents. This was because Mrs. Kev claimed to have repented since she was in prison. She had also apologized to Siena and Maks. And that made Siena start to trust her again. However, Maks was still cautious of Mrs. Kev."Alright. I'll wait. Let's eat," Mrs. Kev invited when their food was delivered by the waiter.A very awkward lunch, it was the first time Siena and Mrs. Kev had lunch together. Everyone knew that Mrs. Kev had never liked Siena.Their conversation passed very stiffly. Siena didn't tell her about her pregnancy because she was sure her adoptive mother wouldn't care.An hour passed and they parted ways and returned to their respective homes. Siena did not tell much. She only listened to Mrs. Kev's request. Her mother asked her husband Maks to withdraw from the tender that the tw
That morning, Mrs. Kev got the chance to talk to Maks. The reason Maks didn't come into the office that day was because Siena's condition was a little worrying. Siena was a little weak and tired."I know, I've done a lot of bad things to you, Maks. I know, it must be hard for you to forgive me."While enjoying his coffee, Maks smiled slightly. He invited the middle-aged woman to sit across from him."I really don't trust you, Mrs. Kev. But, Siena doesn't mind you staying here, so ...." Maks raised both hands. "I can't do anything about it either.""You have to trust me. Siena must have told me everything I've been through. I consider it my punishment." Mrs. Kev put on her pitiable face."As long as you promise not to do bad things to us again, I can accept you here."Mrs. Kev smiled. "I promise, Maks.""So, where did your son and daughter-in-law go?" Maks asked after he took a sip of his coffee."I don't know. They really went too far." Mrs. Kev clenched her hands into fists. Her face
Maks pushed the door to his room softly. Suddenly the lights came on and Siena sat on the bed looking at him with an annoyed gaze." Just got home?" Siena asked."Sorry, honey. A friend invited me to drink at the bar to celebrate our tender victory," Maks replied as he approached his wife. "Didn't I tell you earlier?""I thought you wouldn't be this long!" exclaimed Siena.Maks took a deep breath. "I'm sorry, Siena. Yes, I was wrong."He tried to grab Siena's hand, but she brushed it away. Maks tried to reach for her again, but Siena brushed him off again. And so on until Maks raised both hands in surrender."Sorry, Honey," Maks said again."Please sleep in another room!" Siena pleaded earnestly."What?" asked Maks."You heard what I said, Maks!""Oh, come on, Siena. Do you have the heart to tell me to sleep in another room?"Siena turned her face away. Her lips pursed in a frown. It looked like she couldn't be persuaded anymore. Maks was forced to leave his wife alone, hoping that th
"Don't you want to talk to me?" asked Maks that morning, during breakfast with Siena and Mrs. Kev."I'm eating," Siena replied lightly. Meanwhile, Mrs. Kev sneered furtively.The middle-aged woman watched Siena's coldness toward Maks with pleasure."Siena!" called Maks, who was getting a little agitated. This was because Siena's cold attitude had been going on for several days. Even though his wife already understood that what was in the photo was not what it looked like."Alright, I'll leave for the office now," Maks said as he got up from his seat, without finishing his food. Siena's attitude made his stomach suddenly full.Siena just kept quiet without preventing Maks from leaving."Are you okay, dear?" asked Mrs. Kev, feigning sympathy for her adopted daughter."I'm fine," Siena replied."Are you guys having a problem? You can tell me about it, Siena."Siena flashed a faint smile. She took a sip of her orange juice. Siena felt that Mrs. Kev could be invited to talk about her probl
"I'm sorry, honey," Siena said softly, snuggling into Maks' chest.Maks smiled with a knot. It was a relief that Siena wasn't angry with him anymore. Even though she had to go to the trouble of fixing everything, by finding out who was behind the slander.Mrs. Kev had been kicked out of their house. It was left to Siena to feel guilty about her attitude these past few days towards her husband." Are you not angry with me?" Maks asked as he stroked Siena's head.The woman shook her head softly. Then tightened her embrace to Maks' body. As if she didn't want to let go of him."I'm just a little disappointed that you don't trust me." Maks put on a gloomy face. Making Siena feel even more guilty."I'm sorry, Honey. I was too jealous. I love you too much." The woman's mouth pursed. Her face took on a childish look."Hey, you're so adorable, you know, Siena?" Maks poked Siena's tiny nose anxiously."Honey, I don't know why Mrs. Kev and her family hate us so much. Hate me especially.""She's
