I furrowed my brow in confusion
"How do you know him?" I whispered in Vero's ear but he didn't pay attention to my question
"Jack, please have a seat." Ero's command invited the handsome man to sit down.
I saw there was no empty seat for me, I got up and let Jack sit beside Ferlan I was very surprised when Ferlan tightly gripped my hand with his eyes wide in surprise
“Febrian, stay here. Let me go.”
Ferlan got up from his chair and was about to walk away, but his right hand was held by eros and his left hand was held by Jack making us all shocked to see the dramatic scene.
"Febrian, come here."
I was like getting a code from vero made me immediately come and sit on his lap, vero wrapped his arms around my waist hugging me tightly
"Stay here, my naughty husband."
Ferlan let go of his hands that the two men were holding there, then he chuckled
"Sorry, I-I have to umm I have to help-"
Before finishing his nervous speech, he was already hugged by Jack which made me very surprised
"I won't let you go again. Because of you, you have been caught.”
The atmosphere was so awkward that I asked a question
"What do you mean caught?" I asked then quickly vero covered my mouth
"because we, are playing hide and seek."
I realized that Farlen who looked nervous and panicked made me feel sorry to see him like that and couldn't go, made me want to save him immediately
"Sis Ferlan, my stomach hurts a little can you give me some medicine?"
"of course! Good boy, come on, I'll take you."
"No need sis Ferlan, I'm Febrian's husband, let me do it."
No, damn vero!! I pinched vero's waist so annoyed, why did he have to interfere
"Come on, my lovely, I'll take you to get some medicine."
"unlucky!!"
My body was carried by him and left the dining table, I gave a sad look to Farlen who looked like a small animal caught in a wild animal trap.
"It's okay, just go." Ferlan's smile made me calm to leave him in such a scary state.
Arriving at my room, I kept hitting Vero's chest and stomach in annoyance
“Why do you have to meddle in my business!!”
"Why do you have to meddle in their business?"
"I just want to save Sis Ferlan, can't you see he's scared like that."
"You are really very innocent makes me very excited and want to eat you."
I slapped Vero's mouth in annoyance
“eat yourself!!”
"Dear, I miss you, really. Why did you leave me at the wedding altar?”
"Why don't you hate me? I've humiliated you, haven't I?"
"No, you brought together two people who loved each other."
I furrowed my brow confused looking at him
"it means?"
"You make septian and aji get married."
"what!!"
Vero closed my mouth again not to make noise
"Shut up, don't shout dear."
"I was just surprised, how did they get married?"
"Because you left me at the wedding altar, so it's like a free wedding for them."
"So all this time, they were dating?"
I realized that Farlen who looked nervous and panicked made me feel sorry to see him like that and couldn't go, made me want to save him immediately
"Sis Ferlan, my stomach hurts a little can you give me some medicine?"
"of course! Good boy, come on, I'll take you."
"No need sis Ferlan, I'm Febrian's husband, let me do it."
No, damn vero!! I pinched vero's waist so annoyed, why did he have to interfere
"Come on, my lovely, I'll take you to get some medicine."
"unlucky!!"
My body was carried by him and left the dining table, I gave a sad look to Farlen who looked like a small animal caught in a wild animal trap.
"It's okay, just go." Ferlan's smile made me calm to leave him in such a scary state.

"I was just surprised, how did they get married?"
"Because you left me at the wedding altar, so it's like a free wedding for them."
"So all this time, they were dating?"
look at vero smiling and nodding, i'm still surprised by the greatness of septian hiding aji from me, they're not clearly visible or maybe because i'm busy taking care of myself and my heart involving vero? Vero bastard
"Get away from me, I want to save Sis Ferlan."
"Then, the medicine?"
"I only tricked you."
I stuck out my tongue making him bite his lips teasing me, I didn't care and immediately walked away to hear the three of them talking
"Ferlan, how long do you have to be silent?" asked jackson looking at ferlan who just looked down
"I forgot, I have company business to attend to."
"ferlan, stop dodging." ask jack
I'm annoyed, because the man continues to force Ferlan who already looks very depressed.
"Give me some time, sorry."
"I love you, I've loved you since you were pregnant."
Like a lightning strike, I was surprised to hear their conversation
"Sorry, he's not your son Jack."
"Then whose child? It's been eighteen years since you've been silent like this. I'm going to pick up my son who is being held hostage by the crazy Tom."
"Jack!!"
Ferlan slapped his cheek, making Jack grip Ferlan's hand tightly and look into Ferlan's eyes
"Slap me again, slap me again if you're satisfied with it."
"Stop it, please."
Ferlan was crying, I couldn't stand to see him like that anymore I walked up to him
"Sis Ferlan."
I tightly gripped Ferlan's hand I looked into Jack's eyes
"Mr. Jack, I don't really know who you are but please let go of Sis Ferlan, he's silent doesn't mean he doesn't want to tell you but everyone has secrets that can't be shared with others."
"But, that night at the club we did."
"Jack!!" ferlan screams again he cries again
"Jack, can you?" eros is now taking part in our conversation
"Okay, I'll give you time to come back to me."
I lead Ferlan to go into the room, I let him sleep in his room
"Febrian, thank you."
"Sorry, for leaving you."
"No, you're not wrong. Please, let me sleep okay?”
"Yes, Sis Ferlan then I'll go."
"thanks."
In the middle of the night, I heard Ferlan's sobs sleeping beside my room
"where are you going?"
I was very surprised to see vero sitting on the bench he watched me sleeping
"Vero, please don't bother me. okay?"
"Febrian."
"please, okay?"
“Whatever, go if you want like that.”
I smiled and kept walking towards the room next to mine. Before I got there, I felt I wanted to pee so much I finally decided to go to the toilet
"So relieved.. it's finally over."
I walked out of the toilet, I passed the living room I saw Jack who was sleeping on the bench and I saw Vero who was sitting in the park, midnight tonight? He's in the garden!!
I walked up to him, I saw he was smoking the cigarette on his finger, I sat beside him
"you haven't slept yet?"
"You smoke, I thought you didn't."
"If I'm stressed I will do anything beyond your expectations. Last time, I went to get drunk there I finished five bottles, drank like a person who is not afraid of death, finally the angel helped me.”
"ferlan?"
I heard him chuckle a little and then took another sip of the cigarette on his finger
"What your daughter said is true, you really love Ferlan Sis."
"she is not my daughter, but he is Ferlan's niece. Me and Ferlan, we…”
"we?"
"We're not married and I'm not the father of his child."
I'm still confused, my head feels dizzy
"Who is Ferlan's son?"
Eros just kept quiet, as if not wanting to answer my question leaving me to keep this question to myself in my mind
"You really love him, don't you?"
"Love or not it will not affect him, he only loves the father of his child."
"Is it Jack?"
