"Okay. Mommy's so happy. Now, sleep over there with Lucas." Veronica grabbed the base of Ellena's arm, then turned towards the bed, as a signal for Ellena to understand what she meant.
"Okay, Mommy." Ellena nodded her head slowly.
"Give me the glass!" Veronica immediately grabbed the glass from Ellena's hand.
The atmosphere became silent for a moment. Ellena and Lucas still stayed in place, even with Veronica who had no intention of leaving the room.
"Come on! What are you waiting for?" then asked Veronica.
"What do you mean, Mommy?" Lucas rolled his eyes. In fact, he understood the meaning of his mother's words. However, he just wanted to make sure not to misunderstand.
"You are sleeping now, what are you waiting for?" Veronica clarified her previous words.
"We're going to bed, but Mommy's better get out first," Lucas replied.
Lucas didn't mean to kick his mommy out, it's just that he felt awkward if his mommy was in his room for too long when he was in the same room with Ellena.
"No, Mommy will make sure in advance that you two will sleep in the same bed tonight!" Veronica insisted, refusing her son's request.
"Come on, Elle, you sleep now." Veronica glanced at Ellena who was still wide-eyed. How come? He didn't expect Veronica's persistent efforts to unite herself with Lucas.
"You too, Lucas!" Veronica turned to look at Lucas.
Lucas and Ellena weren't in a hurry to carry out Veronica's orders. They stared at each other for a moment, as if throwing sign language. However, it didn't last long. Lucas immediately looked away from Ellena's face, in contrast to Ellena who was still staring at him.
"All right. Come on, Honey, let's sleep!" asked Lucas who managed to make Ellena even more retarded accompanied by such a great heartbeat.
'Ah, how's this? Why is my heart suddenly pounding, just because Lucas called me that? If this alone can make my heart flutter like this, what if I sleep in the same bed with him? I might die of a heart attack,' Ellena whispered to herself.
Without Ellena knowing, she was already holding her chest, feeling every thump. Lucas, who was observing her expression at that time, couldn't help but smile. Lucas then walked over to the bed and lay there.
"Come on, Elle, your husband is waiting!" Again Veronica acted as if she couldn't wait to see Ellena sleep with Lucas.
Ellena who was still stunned suddenly jumped up. She turned to Lucas who was already lying there, then turned back to Veronica.
"Come on, Honey... don't be afraid, the cockroaches are gone." Lucas' call instantly made Ellena turn her head back to him. Elena looked at him disapprovingly. However, Lucas only smiled, as if he wanted to tease Ellena on purpose in front of his mother.
"Elle...." Veronica hung up on her words when she saw Ellena who was still staring at Lucas.
"Okay, Mom. I'm going to sleep now. Good night, Mommy," said Ellena, rushing over to the bed.
Ellena climbed the bed slowly. She stared at Lucas for a moment, before finally laying down beside the man. She quickly pulled the blanket up, covering his body up to her chest.
'God, why did I meet a pair of mother and son who is very annoying like them? Like mother, like son.' Ellena grumbled in her heart.
Veronica is nice, but why is she so happy to force Ellena. Is it true that Lucas' character is inherited from his mother? The two of them really frustrated Ellena this time.
"Give Mommy and Daddy grandchildren right away!" Veronica smiled happily to see Lucas and Ellena already lying on the same bed.
After her wish was fulfilled, Veronica then said goodbye and immediately left Lucas and Ellena alone there. She closed the bedroom door tightly.
In the supine position, Ellena and Lucas were still staring at the door. However, Ellena immediately turned her attention to Lucas, after the bedroom door closed. Ellena looked sarcastically at Lucas' face with a slightly ragged breath. Certainly not for a reason. She was currently harboring annoyance with Lucas. Yes, annoyed. In fact, she was furious that she had to share the same bed with a man she had only known for a few days.
Realizing Ellena who was staring at him, Lucas immediately turned to the left, where Ellena was. They stared at each other for a while, without a word or greeting between them. However, unlike Ellena, Lucas looked so relaxed in the face of Ellena's gaze. For some reason he always seems to have no burden in dealing with every problem. It was that relaxed, so that the problem that almost ruined his wedding plans could be handled easily.
Lucas is a man who is very good at hiding his worries. In fact, he has no fear of anyone, except God and his parents. So even if Ellena threatened to kill him, he would still look calm.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lucas pursed his lips. This scene really spoiled his sense of sight. The expression on Ellena's face that was very wry made her want to turn away.
"You're happy aren't you, can sleep in the same bed with me?" Lucas rolled his eyes, deliberately trying to tease Ellena.
Ellena's breath was getting louder when she heard Lucas' question. SHe had just opened her mouth to respond to Lucas' words, but Lucas had spoken first. She also had to be merciful to accept defeat.
"Never mind, Elle. Let's just enjoy the night. Didn't Mommy ask us to give her a grandchild immediately?" Lucas' statement this time managed to make Ellena's heart even more turbulent, like a demonstration asking to be taken out of there.
"Never expect that I would do that to you, or even to your parents, Lucas!" Ellena sneered with the same look as before. "I won't let that go one bit. Remember that!" She insisted then.
Lucas laughed mockingly in response to Ellena. I don't know what was in his mind at that time. "You seem very sure of your words, Elle."
"Just watch out if you dare touch me, Lucas. I won't let you live in peace, even if I die later!" growled Ellena threateningly.
"Ha ha ha!" Instead of feeling threatened, Lucas actually laughed at that. "Your face is so innocent, Elle. It's really inappropriate for you to threaten me like that!" he teased then while still chuckling.
Lucas couldn't help but think when he saw Ellena's adorable expression. It turns out that Ellena is more beautiful and attracts his attention, when she is angry like this.
Ellena clenched her jaw while clenching her hands together. Lucas' attitude this time really irritated him. "Lucas, you're so annoying!"
Ellena woke up from her sleep, intending to get out of there. However, just as she was about to lower one leg, Lucas' hand suddenly managed to pull her hand away and give it a firm grip on it. She was forced to give up. She firmly pulled her hand away, but Lucas's grip couldn't break easily because it felt so strong.
"Let go, Lucas!"
