"Aiden, promise . Don't let leave you," Anya muttered.
"I will never let you leave ," Aiden replied.
Aiden really enjoyed their ti together. Under the setting sun, he was carrying the woman he loved on his back. Anya leaned on his shoulder while humming softly. Beautiful music adorned their afternoons.
Every day with Anya was full of surprises and troubles. But all of that also fostered joy. The relationship between them was getting stronger day by day.
"Let's promise each other. No matter what happens, nothing can separate us," Anya said amidst her joy.
"Hmm…" Aiden muttered.
After that, Anya vigorously patted Aiden's shoulder. "Co on! Get to the car!" And sure enough Aiden ran while carrying her.
By the ti they reached their car park, it was six o'clock.
Anya called Hana, "Mrs. Hana, has Nico co ho?"
"Mr Nico is going to a friend's birthday," Hana answered.
"Okay. We're on our way ho and will be arriving in forty minutes." When she finished calling Hana, Anya leaned lazily in her chair and closed her eyes.
"What's the other title you were chanting earlier?" Aiden asked.
"I'll stand by you," Anya opened her eyes a little and answered.
"Go to sleep. I'll wake you up when we get ho," Aiden turned on the music in the car and imdiately chose the song Anya ntioned. He lowered the volu so that it wouldn't be too loud.
When she heard the familiar tone to her ears, Anya smiled. "Don't you want to sing?"
"I can't sing," Aiden replied. He had not answered Anya's question earlier. But an answer crossed his mind. If he hadn't t Anya, he would have married a woman he didn't love. He would live his life without getting to know how bitter and sweet love tasted.
"I like this song. This song seems to symbolize you. You will never let anything happen to , will not let anyone hurt . Even if we have to go through dark days, you will always be by my side." Anya opened her eyes and looked at Aiden. "Do you have super power? You can even know what I'm thinking without needing to say it."
"My power only applies to you," Aiden replied.
Anya smiled hearing this. She knew Aiden didn't have super power. Her husband was only understanding to her.
Anya did not know what kindness she had done so that she was this lucky, to marry a man as good as Aiden. But certainly, she would never disappoint Aiden in their married life.
Aiden said that he lacked confidence in building a relationship. But ever since he t Anya, Aiden did not hesitate to live a married life to the fullest and tried hard to be a good husband for Anya.
Anya felt that God gifted Aiden to her in exchange for the hardships she had endured during her life. Her life was so hard that God sent Aiden for her. Therefore, Anya should appreciate it!
While thinking about it, the smile on Anya's lips grew brighter. And then she slowly fell asleep.
Aiden saw his wife fast asleep with a smile on her face. His heart felt very warm.
'Mother, do you see? I married a simple and kind woman. She is always optimistic and positive in facing the hardships of life. She always tries hard to live and never takes anything that isn't hers.'
'She was the one who gave warmth when my father neglected .'
'She also made know how it felt to love and to be loved.'
'She gave a ho, a small family that only belonged to the two of us.'
'Don't worry, Mom! I'm all right now!'
Perhaps, Aiden could not say it directly in front of his mother's grave because of his awkward nature. But he conveyed it to his mother in his heart. He told her how much he loved his wife.
Anya was still asleep when their car stopped in front of the house.
Aiden's eyes were fixed on Anya's face as his wife was fast asleep, not having the heart to wake her up.
It just so happened that Anya woke up and stretched out her stiff body. When she opened her eyes, she saw Aiden staring at her.
"Why are you looking at ?" Anya imdiately looked around and realized that Abdi, Hana and the other servants were waiting for them outside.
"I want to eat you," said Aiden, removing Anya's seat belt.
Anya just chuckled. "Let's eat first. Don't let Mrs. Hana wait too long."
Aiden knew his wife was trying to run away from him but he let her be. The man just chuckled when Anya opened the car's door and ran away from her husband.
Aiden heard when Hana talked about Nico's friend's birthday and Anya didn't react.
Actually, today was Raka's birthday. It seed like Anya had forgotten about it.
After dinner, Anya went to the room to charge her cellphone. After that, she went to her perfu room to study her mother's recipe.
Il's perfu would soon be launched to the market. If her mother didn't wake up anyti soon, Anya wouldn't know how to fix this recipe. What should she do?
Anya hoped that she could quickly find the problem with the formula and fix it as soon as possible.
Aiden ca out of the bathroom and saw Anya's cell phone lying on the nightstand. He secretly turned Anya's cell phone into silent mode.
anwhile, Anya was still in the perfu room. She kept herself busy until half past twelve in the midnight. Even so, she still couldn't find the cause of asthma in her mother's perfu because there were no problems with the ingredients in the formula.
She had to make so perfu samples and bring them to Iris tomorrow so Esther could help her. Esther might know what was wrong with this recipe.
Anya spread her hands and got up from her chair. After twirling her aching body, she shook her stiff neck.
Anya walked out of her perfu room and passed Aiden's study. The light in the study was still on. When she peeked inside, she saw Aiden busy at his desk.
"Aiden, are you finished?" Anya peeked from the doorway mischievously, only showing half of her face like a cat in hiding.
Aiden raised his head. The corners of his lips curved when he saw his wife in the doorway, "Co in."
Anya walked towards Aiden's desk. "I'm making a perfu sample and I'm taking it to Mrs. Esther tomorrow. Maybe Mrs. Esther knows what's wrong with my mother's recipe."
"None of the spices that cause asthma is in your mother's perfu formula. The real cause is DEHP," Aiden said.
"DEHP? Do you an plasticizer? Isn't that dangerous material? Why is it in perfu?" Anya asked in surprise.
"This material can be used to make perfu last longer on the body and make the scent stick longer. The longer the fragrance stays on the body, the higher the DEHP is." Aiden calmly said.
Anya's eyes lit up after she heard it. "I understand now. I could not find any problem in this recipe because there was nothing wrong. However, these ingredients will be added during the production process to make the perfu aroma last longer."
"Yes, we all know the sll of a perfu can be very strong because it is caused by formaldehyde. anwhile, the rate of evaporation of perfu is very high because of the DEHP. It is very dangerous, volatile, can interfere with hormones and cause respiratory disease. Maybe that's the cause of asthma that your mother said," Aiden explained.
After realizing it, Anya asked in surprise, "That material is very dangerous. Does Il know nothing about it?"
