Gotta go.
The atmosphere that night was different from the night before. The night before, the rain came down with lightning and the wind made the trees around the house blown by the wind.
Lexi just got home. He did not immediately meet his wife who loved to be in the room. He saw his mother and father already in the room.
Knock.
Knock.
Knock.
Lexi knocked on the door slowly.
“Mom, Dad,” he called out loud.
“Wait a minute,” his mom said.
In less than ten seconds the door opened and she stood in front of Lexi with a questioning look. “What is it, dear? You just got home?”
“There’s something I want to talk to mom and dad about,” he said. Otherwise tonight he did not know when to ask permission to go to Uncle Sandy’s House.
“Dad, come out here Lexi wants to talk!” his mother said. The two walked first to the family room.
Mr. Samuel followed in their footsteps, and now the three of them were in the living room. Mr. Samuel sat next to his wife, while Lexi sat in the single chair that was to their right.
“Dad, I’m going to Uncle Sandy’s house tomorrow, he asked me to come there, because he can’t come here at Thanksgiving!” Lexi said slowly.
“Really you, but the Thanksgiving event is still two days later and tomorrow you leave? How long will you be there?” his father’s expression seemed to disagree if Lexi traveled far.
“I called him, I asked him to come here, but he was angry because I had not visited him.” Lexi tried to find an explanation so that his father would understand her.
“You can go there after Thanksgiving!” Mr. Samuel said. Mrs. Anna chose to be silent, it was clear that they were of different opinions.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“No, after the Thanksgiving event I will focus on the city park development project, and will go to Bali for the inauguration of our resort,” he said. Yes, if he wanted to get that information as soon as possible then he must also meet with Uncle Sandy as soon as possible.
“I’ll let you go as long as you get home in time before Thanksgiving! That means if you leave tomorrow morning in the evening you have to get here! How?” his mother said. Lexi certainly knew better which ones were priorities and which ones he would postpone. What’s wrong with him going to his uncle’s house?
“That’s my plan, Mom. In the morning I will take the first plane to Semarang Ahmad Yani Airport, then by land I will go to Uncle Sandy’s residence, which is in one of the villages in Temanggung Regency,” Lexi explained. “In the afternoon I will return to Jakarta and at night I must have arrived at this house again,” he added.
Mr. Samuel nodded. However, he felt that there was something strange about Lexi’s words at this time.
“Did you ask Jessica for permission?” his mother asked.
“Not yet Mom, after this I will talk to her,” Lexi replied.
“Yes, now you talk to your wife, I am afraid that she won’t let you go!” Mrs. Anna.
Lexi nodded and immediately went to her room to talk to Jessica.
In the living room now there were only Mr. Samuel and Mrs. Anna. They stared at each other.
“Isn’t this strange, mom? Why is Lexi suddenly eager to see Sandy! I remember when he came back from London. Even a billion dollars did not make him willing to go to Sandy’s House,” Mr. Samuel asked, explaining what was bothering him.
“Dad, that’s how long it’s been! Mama just forgot!” Mrs. Anna shook her head. Lexi when graduating bachelor was clearly different from Lexi now.
Mr. Samuel smiled discordantly. There was something strange about Lexi’s sudden words.

“Honey how are you today?” Lexi asked as he sat next to his wife.
Jessica immediately closed the novel she was reading. She focused on her husband who came home very late tonight.
“Today I am constantly nauseous. It looks like our future child is cranky because his father left in the morning, and came home at night,” Jessica said as she rubbed her stomach that still looked flat.
“It’s all for you, for our son. I have to work even harder because I will soon have children,” Lexi said. “Wait a minute, I’ll take a shower first, don’t sleep first!” Lexi put his phone on the desk, took off his black coat, and walked to the bathroom.
Jessica nodded and opened the book again. She intended to continue reading that book.
However, Lexi’s phone kept ringing. It made her curious. Jessica glanced at her husband’s phone. There were a lot of incoming messages from his WhatsApp notifications. Jessica saw one message from Arsene.
[Sir, I have already made an appointment with the journalist who made the news. Tomorrow morning I’ll probably be late for work. I’m sure I’ll get some information about the Kim Family accident, twelve years ago. ]
Jessica put Lexi’s phone back. ‘Kim Family, twelve years ago’ the keyword made her hands tremble. What exactly happened?
The book, which is currently in her lap, Jessica moved it to the side of Lexi’s cell phone. What Kim Family means is one of her family. Suddenly he was inga with Daniel Kim. Who is he? Jessica Shook her head, feeling dizzy.
Jessica was already lying down when Lexi came out of the bathroom. The men wore clothes that had been prepared by the wife. Jessica closed her eyes, taking a deep breath. Lexi was just annoyed. It was not yet nine o’clock, but Jessica was already asleep. He also didn’t tell her that he was going to Uncle Sandy’s place tomorrow.
Hearing an incoming call from Arsene, Lexi grabbed his phone and immediately received a call from his secretary.
“Hello,” Lexi said quietly as he walked to the corner of the room. He didn’t want Jessica to wake up because he heard his receiving a phone call.
“Sir, I will give you a report regarding the information I obtained!” Arsene said on the other side of the phone.
“Tell me, what information you got!”
” I have sent it to your email, and as I said tomorrow morning I will be late because I have to see the journalist who published the news of the accident,” Arsene said obviously.
“Well, I’ll check it out soon. Stay careful!” Lexi said.
“Okay, Sir!”
Lexi’s thumb slides the red color icon. He immediately ended the phone call because he heard Jessica’s voice delirious.
When Lexi walked closer it turned out that Jessica had woken up from her sleep.
“Who are you calling tonight?” Jessica, who pretended to be asleep, asked.
“Arsene,” said Lexi. “Sorry to disturb your sleep, honey.” Lexi got on the bed, then kissed his wife on the forehead.
Jessica smiled in response. Then, she returned Lexi’s kiss with a kiss. “Next time don’t go to work before I get out of bed, or wake me up before you go to work!” Jessica protested with her lips curled forward.
“Yes, honey.” Lexi put his face in the wife’s chest in her favorite part that managed to make Jessica feel amused.
“Honey, don’t be naughty!” Jessica said.
Lexi just smiled. ” I have to go tomorrow, ” Lexi said, beginning his intention to ask Jessica for permission. Although from his heart to leave the wife to go far for the first time.
“Go?” Jessica looked down. At a time like this, when her heart was sometimes plagued by fear. She really wanted to stay by Lexi’s side. She wanted to go through everything together. In two days there would be a special event in this house. Why did Lexi have to go?
“I have to go to Uncle Sandy’s House. I’m just a minute away, morning leaving and evening I’ve arrived home. So I begged my sweet honey, the most beautiful wife in all of space, to give me permission to go there!” Lexi persuaded by showing his warm expression.
“Why go there suddenly?” Jessica asked.
“There are secrets that at the moment I cannot tell you about, because I don’t know either. Later after that is over I’ll tell you right away honey?” Lexi rubbed the wife’s cheek. He could see the disappointed expression on her face.
“I don’t think Mom and dad will let you, ” Jessica guessed, still not willing if Lexi left.
“Mom and dad let me go, only you didn’t. Come on, baby, I’ll make sure I get home on time!” Lexi persuaded.
Jessica was weak. She had to give permission to her husband.
