Chapter 18 - Giving Attention
Edward looked at Luna\'s togetherness with Ethan from the balcony of his room. "Did you already love him? It\'s that easy, you think I\'m happy to live with this charade of love, I\'ll get you back, Luna, no matter what." Edward clenched his fists with the anger that ruled his heart. He was selfish by blaming Luna. even though he had hurt Luna first.
"Edward ... Edward!" called Viona from inside the room.
Edward did not answer because he was still focused on observing. Viona also walked over to Edward, who was still standing on the balcony staring at the husband and wife in the yard of the house.
"Aren\'t they coming home with us?" asked Viona who also looked at Ethan and Luna.
"Maybe not they are relaxed. Ethan also didn\'t tell me if he didn\'t come home today, it sucks him, "Edward replied curtly and then went back into the room.
\'What\'s the problem if Ethan doesn\'t come home? Why is Edward so angry, I am even more curious.\' Viona thought as she walked into the room following Edward.
The two of them immediately got ready to go to the airport, because of their flight schedule this morning too.

Ethan and Luna walked around the house barefoot, it was according to Dina\'s advice, said it was good for pregnant women.
"Amused, I\'m not used to getting stuck like this," said Luna as she walked barefoot. She grimaced as she stepped on the pebbles in the garden near the house.
"But it\'s good for health, you have to be able to. In time you will get used to it," replied Ethan as he continued to walk slowly beside Luna.
"Aren\'t you amused?" asked Luna, occasionally she turned her head to look at her husband who she realized that her good looks grew, even more, when her beard was shaved.
"No, I\'m used to. I can even run barefoot on the asphalt or gravel," Ethan replied, smiling at Luna.
Luna smiled back at Ethan and suddenly wanted to see him run barefoot. "Run, I want to see!"
"Okay, who\'s afraid?" Ethan said confidently.
Luna immediately sat on the chair in the park while Ethan took a position to run.
Ethan sprinted toward the end of the yard, then ran back to his starting position near Luna.
Luna smiled at her husband who was willing to obey her wishes. "You never even get angry even though I always provoke your anger, make you annoyed. Indeed you are a good man, I should be grateful to have you as a husband, and stop thinking about Edward," muttered Luna.
Ethan approached Luna looking breathless because he had run so fast.
"Drink first," cried Luna, handing her a bottle of water that she deliberately brought.
"Thanks," Ethan replied, then grabbed the bottle and drank it right away.
Luna watched Ethan\'s face that started to sweat, she reflexively wiped Ethan\'s sweat with her blazer which she had taken off because of the heat.
Ethan smiled as he saw Luna giving him attention. It was progress that made him feel even more hopeful.
"Immediately sweating," muttered Luna as she rubbed her husband\'s face.
"Men are generally like that." Ethan glanced at Luna, who was also sweating on her forehead and temples.
"You look hot too, we better get into the house .. .it\'s getting hot in here, "said Ethan, feeling hot, hungry and the sun was starting to sting.
"The sunshine in this morning is healthy," said Luna.
"hmm yeah. but I\'m hungry, it\'s time for breakfast," Ethan replied as he got up from his seat.
"Eh, yes ..our babies also need nutritious food, right?" Luna grabbed Ethan\'s hand and got up from her seat. Ethan immediately took Luna into the house.

Edward and Viona walked towards the yard, they were about to go to the airport escorted by a driver.
"Want to go now?" Ethan asked as he passed Edward.
"Yes, I have a lot of work," replied Edward with an unhappy look, while Viona occasionally smiled at Luna. She was trying to be friendly to the woman she suspected of having a past relationship with her husband.
"Yes, be careful!" exclaimed Ethan and then invited Luna to continue walking into the house.
Edward enters the car with Viona. He kept silent with a sour face.
"What\'s wrong with you, why is such an angry person?" Viona asked while watching Edward\'s face.
"No, I\'m just in a bad mood," Edward replied without looking at his wife.
"Bad mood, why?" asked Viona again.
"It\'s okay, it\'s not important," Edward replied.
Fiona sighed. felt that Edward was hiding something from her. Viona chose to remain silent and would find out the facts that she had not yet got. Edward\'s changes after Ethan got married were striking.

"Where are you from?" asked Alexa when she saw Ethan and Luna enter the dining room.
"Morning Walk," replied Luna as she picked up the bread from the table.
"Well ... it\'s nice to lie down in the room," murmured Alexa as she looked at Ethan, who looked sweaty. "You smell, take a shower first, then have breakfast!" exclaimed Alexa.
"I\'m hungry, it\'s not good to postpone breakfast. if it gets sick, it\'ll be troublesome," Ethan replied with a sneer glance at his chatty cousin.
"Eat bread first, after showering we have breakfast outside," said Luna while handing her the plain bread that she had spread with chocolate and peanut butter, her favorite flavor she gave to her husband.
Ethan nodded in agreement then took the bread Luna rushed to the room while eating her bread.
Alexa pursed her lips at Ethan and Luna. She felt want to have a partner too. It\'s always like that when she was seeing a husband and wife who get along with a harmonious face.
"So hurry up and get married, so you won\'t be jealousy to see me being noticed by my wife," Ethan said sarcastically. Even though this is the first time Luna seems to be giving him attention.
"Find a good mate, please ..I\'ve always chosen the wrong choice all this time, "replied Alexa, she cursed herself who always got a lover of delinquents who cheated on her.
"Yes, I\'ll find it." Ethan raised from his seat and walked toward the kitchen. He made milk for Luna. That was his routine as long as his wife was pregnant.
In the kitchen, Dina and Maur, and a household assistant are cooking for breakfast. Maura smiled seeing Ethan making milk for Luna.
"Wow, a sugar daddy candidate," Maura teased, making Ethan blush with embarrassment.
"Haha ... sugar daddy ... what nonsense you, Maura!" said Dina chuckled a little.
"Rarely does a man want to make routine milk every day for his wife. Doni never did that." Maura remembers that when she was pregnant, her husband was lazy to make milk for her.
"If I don\'t make it, she won\'t drink milk. Luna doesn\'t like it," said Ethan as he stirred the milk in his not too big glass.
"Yes, initially she didn\'t accept her pregnancy. Is there any progress now?" asked Maura.
"She\'s accepted her pregnancy, and I even have a chance," Ethan replied with a confident smile.
"It should be like that ... Mommy wants you to be husband and wife for life, don\'t separate, pity your children later," said Dina, who also had high hopes for Ethan\'s household.
"Just pray, Mom, she\'ll slowly accept me. I\'ll go to the room first," Ethan said goodbye. He immediately walked to the room carrying a glass of caramel-flavored milk. That\'s the flavor variant that Dina bought. Hopefully, Luna doesn\'t protest much and instead likes the taste ..
