Chapter 153 - Women's Disappointment
Viona and the doctorate at a Japanese-style restaurant with a variety of menus that also included a variety of Japanese foods. The two of them sat on the edge near the wall with the cherry blossoms on it.
"Are you feeling better now?" asked the Doctor.
"No, my heart still hurts," said Viona, then sipped the legendary Japanese tea with milk mixture.
"Anyway, why did you attend the wedding if it would only leave wounds? I didn't expect a woman like you to be wasted." the doctor devoured a piece of sushi filled with cooked salmon.
"That's my purpose. I want to put more pain in my heart from him so that I stop loving him," said Viona with a faint smile but her heart was crying. she used that method to get Edward out of her heart.
"Most people avoid the wedding of their ex or their partner, but you came instead. I salute your toughness," said the doctor.
"You said I was tough?" Fiona pointed to herself. "I even cried earlier, I was so weak because of love," she continued.
"Then don't cry over it anymore. Because it's useless. For me you are still tough," said the Doctor with a reassuring smile. Since the beginning, he has always been interested in Viona's life. especially since knowing the woman miscarried and even her husband remarried, he became more and more interested and tried to comfort her.
"Yeah, I hope I don't cry anymore, because usually, I'll just be busy working to forget about my love problems," Viona replied, then devoured a mouthful of Japanese ramen.
"Anyway, since earlier you called me 'doctor'. It's better to just call me by my name. my name is Frans." The doctor extended his hand to Viona for a handshake.
Viona smiled again accepting Frans' hand. "We've seen each other many times when I had my obstetrician. And now we're officially acquainted."
"Since you're still a husband, I'm hesitant to get acquainted." Frans was reluctant to let go of his handshake from Viona.
"I'm still married right now." Viona pulled her hand away from Frans's handshake.
"Then get a divorce immediately, so I'm not worried to be friends with you," said Frans with a grin.
"You prayed for a divorce." Viona glanced at Frans, who seemed happy that she was going to get a divorce.
"I'm just joking, Viona. Because I don't like seeing you cry," said Frans with a laughable smile. Seeing Viona's glance seemed to make him even more excited and feel like it. as well as Viona, usually, she was cold to men she had not known for long, but she couldn't help that the doctor made her feel a little more comfortable and calmer.

Edward and Sarah's wedding ceremony was over. Ethan decided to immediately return to the car because he was lazy to meet his stepbrother, while Dina was still talking to Hans, and she also gave Edward and Sarah advice before going home.
Now, Dina was sitting in a chair with Edward. while Sarah and Hans greeted the guests who kept coming.
"Edward, mommy already knows all your problems with Ethan and Luna. I hope you don't bother them anymore," said Dina while glancing at Edward who was looking down, even though this was a happy day.
"I'm just annoyed that Ethan took my long-time girlfriend so easily, Mom," Edward replied in his baritone voice.
"Ethan didn't mean to take Luna from you, Edward. He didn't even know that Luna was your ex-girlfriend. It's also your fault that you didn't ask mom or Ethan for help when your company went bankrupt." Dina insists.
"Mommy defended me because I'm not a biological son and Ethan is a biological son
. I knew enough myself not to ask you guys for help at that time. Because I was nobody." Edward showed a sad expression. There was a scar on his face because he was cursing his fate of having no biological parents or anything to rely on for his heart.
"Why do you think that, Edward? Mommy never differentiated between you two. You've been treated like mommy's biological child." Dina was disappointed with Edward's statement. Because she had tried to be as fair as possible since they were little. It's just that Edward always refused whatever she gave and was always passive.
"Ethan took it easy. Ethan has someone who always cheers me up," said Edward sadly. He shared all his complaints with Dina. Even though she was a stepmother, he didn't hesitate to tell stories.
Dina sighed, then patted Edward's shoulder. She understood how the man before him was always lonely. but she can't interfere, because it's a matter of the heart.
"You have married Sarah because she is pregnant with your child. please, don't play with her as you played with Viona," said Dina sadly.
"I don't love Sarah. I still can't escape Luna's shadow," Edward replied.
"But you have to learn to love her. because it's your responsibility. Don't fight with Ethan anymore, because he's not a winner. Right now he's also hated by Luna. None of you are good anymore in Luna's eyes. you both hurt her." Dina got up from the chair and looked down at Edward who didn't respond.
"Mommy doesn't want to know and doesn't want to hear that there is another feud between you two. I'm already disappointed and ashamed because you hurt your wives," Dina said firmly. She left without waiting for Edward to respond because she was also fed up and annoyed with the fact that her two sons hurt their wives.
Disappointed, Dina returned to the car and approached Ethan, who was waiting for her. "Ethan, let's go home," she said as he fastened his seat belt.
Ethan immediately drove his car to go home. Sometimes he glanced at his mother who looked angry but the man was reluctant to ask or talk because he understood how his mother was when she was angry.

While crossing the mall, Ethan remembered that his twins didn't have any toys yet. "Mom, let's stop by for a bit, I want to buy something for Keenan and Keyra."
"Yes, that's fine. Mommy wants to buy clothes for Luna and Mrs. Rita," said Dina. She thought of buying clothes that fit and comfortable for Luna who was breastfeeding. Because during breastfeeding, the daughter-in-law was a bit difficult because she had to take off her clothes from below. Breastfeeding people usually find it easier to wear clothes that have front buttons or zippers.
Ethan stopped his car in the mall parking lot. He immediately came out followed by Dina and immediately walked into the mall. the man walked through the wide shopping area, looking for toys for the baby. Meanwhile, Dina walked to a boutique that sells various special clothes for women.
Ethan browses through various toys that are typical with babies. He was interested in a toy with bright colors and appropriate to hang above Keenan and Keyra's crib.
"With this toy, they will learn to understand colors from a young age. And it can also make sounds, which is perfect for them," Ethan with a relieved smile.
Ethan immediately bought the two toys and various other toys that are usually put in the water when bathing, a small doll and a baby sweater that is very small in size. He imagined how adorable his babies would be in those sweaters.
