*A month later*Luna and Sam set foot back in their old house. Luna is grateful that nothing has changed in the house. The difference is only in the few maids that Sam hires to take care of the house because Luna is pregnant. Sam didn't allow Luna to do anything while at home.Sam and Luna sat on a lounger in the small garden beside their house. The flowers they had previously planted were blooming now."Sam, finally Jake's problem is over, now nothing will bother us anymore," Luna said, hugging Sam's body."Yes, it's all over, now we can breathe easy," said Sam, stroking Luna's hair gently."Did Jake get a tough sentence?" Luna asked quietly."I don't know, the lawyers are still trying to get Jake to get relief because he gave himself up, they are currently appealing. Now, let's forget what happened to our family before. Let's close the pages of our dark story, and open a new chapter of life full of happiness. Look at this park, I plan to expand this park so we can relax accompanying
Luna could only take a deep breath looking out the car window. She really hates rain, especially on a special day like this. Can't the rain come another time? Should she sing a rain-repellent song to make them really go away?"Come on, don't be so sullen, we can just celebrate your birthday at home, right? There's the best chef in the world with us, so why should you be sad because you can't have dinner at a five-star restaurant?" said Mr. Andreas without turning his head.Luna shook her head slowly, leaned closer to the front seat, and looked at her parents one by one."It's different Dad, it's not just the usual five-star hotel, it's a really special place, and getting a table there is really hard!" Luna protested.Mr. Andreas and Mrs. Lily only chuckled lightly at how upset their only child was because they couldn't celebrate their birthday at their dream place."We can go there tomorrow if the weather permits," said Mrs. Lily then smiled warmly.Luna still wanted to swear because
Luna sat huddled hugging her knees. She looked at the graves of her parents with a sad gaze. Who would have thought that that night would be her last night with them. Honestly, Luna still can't believe what happened. How could they possibly leave her so soon?"Luna, that's all right, you'll get sick later, let's go home okay," Jane—Luna's best friend, tried to persuade the girl to leave the tomb as soon as it was getting dark."Can't I just sleep here?" asked Luna in a weak voice.Jane fell silent. She knew that Luna was so lost. Who wouldn't be so hurt if they had to lose both parents on their birthday?Jane also sat beside Luna, she no longer cared about the condition of the tomb which was getting tense because it was dark. She would only accompany Luna until she felt better."Know what's funny?" asked Luna suddenly."What?" asked Jane confused.She didn't see anything funny in that incident."Before my daddy died, he asked the man who crashed our car to marry me! Instead of giving
"Are you crazy, Sam?" shrieked Miss Veronica—Sam's Mother.Sam was silent with his arms folded across his chest."How could you want to marry someone you don't know? What if she's far from your type? What if she's a bad girl?!" said Mrs. Veronica.For the umpteenth time today, Sam took a deep breath. His chest felt so tight with guilt. He is not a naïve man, he knows full well that Luna lost her parents because of his carelessness, indirectly, Sam killed Luna's parents."No, Sam, I don't agree with you! We can compensate her handsomely, no need to marry her!" said Mrs. Veronica."What did you just say, Veronica?!" shouted Mr. William—Sam's father."I won't let Sam make the wrong decision! The death of that girl's parents wasn't completely Sam's fault! The roads were slippery because of the heavy rain! Everyone can have an accident in those circumstances. Why did that old man have to force our precious son to marry his daughter? And what kind of girl is she?!" Mrs. Veronica growled."W
"What?" Eros shouted angrily.For Eros, this man in front of him really didn't know himself, after killing Luna's parents, he wanted to make Luna become his wife?! He's kidding? Eros certainly wouldn't let that man marry his precious Luna."You know what you just said?!" growled Eros.Sam took a deep breath. His eagle eyes then turned to Eros who was staring at him sharply. Whoever Eros is, Sam will not back down to make Luna becomes his wife."I know very well what I just said. Look, I can't ignore Luna's father's last wish! I know I don't deserve to make that happen with all the sins I've committed. However, I don't want to be even more sinful by ignoring his last wish. I will not force Luna to agree to marry me. However... please think carefully," said Sam with all sincerity.Hearing the seriousness in Sam's tone, Luna melted a little. Sam is handsome, looks rich, and is educated. Of course, the decision to marry him was not for other purposes such as wealth and so on. With Sam's h
"So, what are your parent's names?" said Mrs. Veronica as Luna invited Sam and his parents to sit in the living room."Can you hold on? We just sat down!" Mr. William warned.Mrs. Veronica completely ignored her husband's words and continued to stare at Luna with a sharp gaze. She was still waiting for Luna's answer.Seeing Mrs. Veronica's attitude, Luna just smiled. She then left the living room and took a family photo which was still neatly framed on his father's desk. Luna gave a photo of her parents to Mrs. Veronica after she got to the living room."My father's name is Andreas, and my mother's name is Lily. If you are interested in my parents' work, I will be happy to explain." Said Luna confidently.It seems that Sam's mother is quite underestimating her family.Unlike his wife, who normally saw the photo, Mr. William was immediately stunned to see the face of his old friend in the frame."Andreas," Mr. William muttered."You know him?" asked Mrs. Veronica confused."He was the
Jane was still struggling with Luna's hair when Eros came. It was agreed that the two girls would style each other's hair when they married.Carefully Jane styled Luna's hair and placed small flowers on the girl's brown hair."For your information, all the invited guests including the groom-to-be have been waiting for you for a long time!" snapped Eros.To be honest, Eros was still very upset because Luna decided to marry Sam even though Eros and Jane had tried to prevent it.Luna is still very young, she is beautiful and accomplished. It would be a shame if the girl got married this young."Shut up, I'm doing my best to make Luna look hundreds of times prettier!" said Jane no less curtly.Eros sighed in annoyance, he then approached the two girls and sat on a chair that was not far from them."All you've been doing is sticking wildflowers in Luna's hair! Was that what you did best?" sneered Eros."Yes, said someone who does not understand art!" she growled.Luna just smiled faintly.
After successfully escaping from the party that was still going on with great fanfare, Luna and Sam went to a small park in the hotel area.The two of them sat silently looking up at the night sky filled with stars. The two of them were silent for quite a long time.Luna took off the high heels she was wearing, and let her bare feet touch the grass underneath. Wearing high heels all day really tortured her. But for the sake of making Jane happy, she was forced to wear it. Jane has been trying so hard to get everything ready. The wedding dress, jewelery and glass slipper with a height of ten centimeters."Your feet are red, want me to get some warm water?" Sam asked quietly.Luna who was surprised to hear Sam's voice, immediately turned towards the man. For a moment, Luna forgot that Sam was also there."No, my leg will get better after resting for a bit," Luna said as soon as she regained full consciousness."Listen, maybe I'm asking too much, but this is important..." Sam said doubtf
