Chapter 56 - Should Be Honest?
At night, Luna sits and relaxes on the terrace of the house while singing accompanied by the guitar playing from Alexa\'s fingers. The girl was so good at playing the guitar, she even bought an impromptu guitar because Ethan\'s house didn\'t provide it. They sang together while enjoying the beautiful night atmosphere with the starry sky. Sometimes the night wind can shake the hair of the two women. Luckily Luna wore a blazer, so she didn\'t get too cold.
"I remember when we had a barbeque at Mommy Dina\'s house," said Luna when she stopped singing.
"Yes, at that time we just met but were like old friends who had not met for a long time, Hahaha ...." Alexa chuckled.
"Haha yeah, even though I\'m a typical person who doesn\'t easily like someone\'s character. But I like your tomboyish style and good at playing the guitar." Luna chuckled too and said her admiration for the girl beside her.
"I can teach you if you want," said Alexa.
Suddenly Luna laughed again at the offer, "Hahaha ... how can I learn to play guitar. My stomach is big, it will be hard to put down the guitar."
"You can put it on the side of your body," explained Alexa.
"It\'s still difficult because my stomach is big, another time I Will learn if I have given birth," replied Luna.
"Okay." Alexa nodded in agreement because she saw from Luna\'s stomach, which was getting bigger, it would be difficult to play around. "How old are you now, by the way?" She asked.
"I\'m almost 23 years old, you?" Luna asked in return.
"I\'m only 22 years old," replied Alexa. "You married young and got pregnant right away, even though you could have continued your career as a model." She continued. Because she doesn\'t know how Luna and Ethan got married.
"Umm, because I wanted to get married young," replied Luna without telling her history. She was lazy to tell the embarrassing incident.
"Oh, let\'s we just continue singing," asked Alexa to focus on her guitar again.
"Can you do the guitar chords for Lana Del Rey\'s song?" asked Luna as she thought about the song she was going to sing.
"Yes," replied Alexa. "Uh, but what\'s the title of the song? I haven\'t memorized it all."
"Love or Radio, can you remember the chord?" asked Luna again.
"Oh that\'s easy," replied Alexa with a grin at Luna.
"Okay. Let\'s just sing that song," said Luna with a beaming face. The pregnant woman no longer looks sad and forgets about Edward or the perpetrator of the accident that happened to her husband.
"Okay." Alexa immediately started plucking the guitar strings with her fingers slowly.
Luna immediately started singing with her slightly melodious voice. occasionally Alexa also sang in balance.
Not even they can stop me now
Boy, I\'ll be flying overhead
Their heavy words can\'t bring me down
Boy I\'ve been raised from the dead
No one even knows how hard life was
I don\'t even think about it now because
I\'ve finally found you
oh, sing it to me
Now my life is sweet like cinnamon
Like a fucking dream I\'m living in
Baby love me cause I\'m playing on the radio
(How do you like me now?)
Pick me up and take me like a vitamin
\'Cause my body\'s sweet like sugar venom oh yeah
Baby love me cause I\'m playing on the radio
(How do you like me now?)
American dreams came true somehow
I swore I\'d chase until I was dead
I heard the streets were paved with gold
That\'s what my father said
No one even knows what life was like
Now I\'m in LA and it\'s paradise
I\'ve finally found…
Ethan and his mother are relaxing while watching TV in the living room. Hearing his wife sing with lyrics that seemed to show her happy heart for the love he had given, Ethan got off the sofa and walked to the terrace.
The man stands leaning against the wall with his arms crossed as he continues to watch his wife sing happily with his cousin.
Luna didn\'t notice that her husband was behind her and watching her. The song succeeded in making Ethan blush and flowery.
"Perfect." Ethan gave the compliment while clapping. He immediately sat beside Luna and embraced her from the side.
"Since when you were good at singing, hem?" Ethan asked as he brought his face closer to Luna with a seductive smile. ah, he doesn\'t care if Alexa comes back grumbling because she was left making out.
"Since a long time ago, it\'s just that I was embarrassed to sing in front of a crowd," replied Luna shyly.
"Sing for me sometimes. I\'ll be your loyal listener," Ethan exclaimed as he stroked Luna\'s hair. He fell so in love with his wife.
Feeling like a mosquito repellent, Alexa immediately started walking into the house. \'Huh, Ethan made me a spectator on purpose,\' she thought irritably.
While relaxing while looking at the millions of stars scattered in the sky. Ethan and Luna\'s gaze drifted toward the car that had just come into the yard.
"Sis Shandra," muttered Luna when the owner of the car got out.
Shandra and Arsha approached Luna and Ethan who were relaxing.
"How are you, Ethan. Are you feeling better?" asked Arsha as he sat on Ethan\'s left, while Shandra sat on Luna\'s right. Now the four of them sat in a row.
"Yes, I feel better, It\'s just still a little dizzy," Ethan replied pleasantly.
"What about the case, have you investigated your car\'s brakes suddenly failing?" asked Shandra enthusiastically. Her detective attitude rebelled again.
"Yes, Sis. There is indeed someone who intends to harm me," said Ethan.
"Who is she or he ?" asked Arsha with a frown.
"I don\'t know for sure. But traits like Edward, my half brother." Ethan answered doubtfully.
"As I thought," whispered Shandra to Luna, who was silent listening to every conversation.
"Not sure, Sis," replied Luna softly. Meanwhile, Ethan focused on chatting with Arsha.
"Edward?" Arsha frowned.
"Yes," Ethan said briefly and then stood away staring at the sky. "From the characteristics of the perpetrators on CCTV, it is very similar to Edward. I feel doubtful and uncomfortable if I have to harass him to undergo an examination, but I also wonder if it is him, even though we never fought. I don\'t know what he wanted if he was the one who hurt me."
"So, you are going to ask the police to investigate it?" asked Shandra.
"Yes, Sis," Ethan said as he turned back to Shandra.
Shandra smiled with satisfaction while glancing at Luna, who was even tense. "If he did, he\'d be in jail and your life with Ethan would be quiet," she whispered to Luna.
"Edward would have said he was my ex-lover," replied Luna very softly.
"What\'s the problem, the truth is revealed it is best,r," Shandra assures Luna to come back. She is also lazy to see that her sister still has the past from her husband. Being honest is better than being told by other people.
"I don\'t know, I just don\'t want any animosity between them." Luna sighed, then got up and would go into the house.
"Where are you going?" Ethan asked.
"I just want to make milk," replied Luna. She was better off than Shandra kept talking about Edward.
"Oh, yeah. Come back here after that," exclaimed Ethan.
"Hem," said Luna with a peaceful smile at her husband. She immediately walked into the house to the kitchen.
Luna walked into the kitchen with an uneasy mind. she thought about her sister\'s words, who seemed to keep cornering Edward and said it was better, to be honest than to keep a secret from his past.
\'Should I be honest, will Ethan be mad at me? Will he start drifting away from his brother? or everything will be fine because it\'s just the past. But what if Edward was the culprit, would that mean I was made this condition? And Ethan would be hurt that his brother did bad things to him just to snatch me?\' She thought with all the questions in her heart.
