Chapter 177 - 177. A Meeting
Devan froze on the spot when he saw Anna who was already standing in front of the door. It was Leo's room. How could it be?
Devan immediately approached and held Anna's hand which was already outstretched to ring the bell.
"What is it?" asked Anna with a frown, completely unable to understand what Devan had just done.
"Are you sure this is the address?" Instead of answering, Devan asked Anna something else.
Hearing that, Anna nodded in agreement. "Right, why? Is there a problem?"
Devan was silent for a moment, then pulled Anna's arm asking her to shift slightly to the side. He didn't know what kind of coincidence was going on right now.
"You don't have to ring the bell," Devan said as he put his luggage on the floor and then pressed the password for Leo's apartment.historical
Anna gaped, "H-how did you know the password?" she asked.
"You'll find out later," said Devan.
Just a few seconds later, the door opened. The man returned to pick up the item he had previously placed on the floor.
"Come on," Devan said turning to Anna.
"O-oh, okay," Anna stuttered, she then followed Devan from behind.
While on the other hand, Leo, Naila, and Dave who were having lunch were forced to stop their activities when they heard someone trying to unlock the door.
"Wait a minute, let me see," Leo said to Naila.
Those spoken to only nodded in agreement.
"Auntie, could it be my Mother?" asked Dave looking at the girl.
"No, honey. If it was your mother, she might have called first."
"Then who is, Auntie?"
"Perhaps Uncle Leo's guest?" Naila guessed then only Dave nodded. The boy then returned to continue his lunch which had stopped.
Meanwhile, Leo, who was very close to the door, suddenly stopped his steps when he saw who appeared after the door opened.
"De-Devan?" Leo stuttered as if he couldn't believe what his own eyes had witnessed.
"W-what are you doing here? No, eee I mean why did you suddenly visit me?" Leo rubbed the back of his neck.
"What did you bring with you?" he added again immediately approaching and approaching his cousin.
"What's wrong? Can't I come to visit?" replied Devan.
"N-no, I didn't mean that. I just didn't think..." Leo's words hung when he saw a pair of legs following behind Devan.
"Who did you come with?" Leo asked again, tilting his head slightly to look at the figure behind his cousin. Maybe because Anna's body is very small, so it can't be seen at all because it is blocked by Devan's burly body.
"Are you going to continue to stand there and block my path, you don't seem happy if I come to visit," Devan said, and that managed to make Leo frown. For a moment he felt that maybe he was dreaming because Devan's attitude that he had known so far was not like the one standing in front of him.
Anna who overheard the conversation of the two men in front of her suddenly became confused, didn't know what to do. She never expected that the man who helped Naila and her son was very close to Devan.
"Come out, you can't keep hiding behind me, can you?" the man's voice suddenly sounded.
"I thought you wanted to see your son?" he added again.
"What do you mean?" Leo frowned in confusion as he digested the meaning of Devan's words, but only for a few seconds, his confusion was immediately answered by the appearance of a petite woman from behind his cousin's back.
Now it was Leo's turn to freeze, "A-Anna?"
"H-how come?"
"Devan, how come you came with Anna?"
"And how long have you been together?" Soon Leo was bombarding his cousin with a lot of questions.
"Shouldn't you be the one giving me an explanation?" replied Devan.
"Anna?" A woman's voice came from behind Leo making them all look towards the source of the voice. That's Naila.
"Mom," a little boy also appeared, running hastily towards Anna, his eyes brimming with tears.
As for Anna, the woman immediately welcomed her son and took him in her arms.
"I'm sorry, honey," said Anna while kissing Dave's forehead for a long time. The boy didn't respond, he then hugged Anna tightly.
"Don't leave me again, Mom," Dave said hoarsely as if the boy was now crying on his mother's shoulder.
"I never left you, honey," Anna stroked her son's head very gently.
Dave sobbed even more.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Mom."
"Am I very long time?" asked Anna again.
Dave just nodded on the woman's shoulder.
All of them who witnessed the scene felt a little moved, especially Naila. As for Devan, the man froze in place when he saw Anna's son at such a close distance.
'Is it possible?' Devan's mind was guessing and couldn't calm down at all. What his cousin said was true. Their faces are very similar.
"Are you all right?" Dave asked raising his head and looking at Anna.
The woman nodded with a smile.
"You'd better go in first," Leo said finally.
"For you," said Devan immediately handed his luggage to Leo, and left from there, heading to the living room.
While Naila who saw Devan, now stood unmoved from her place, the girl looked at Devan without blinking even after the man passed in front of her.
Immediately Naila approached Anna who was still standing near the door, "Anna, he's Dave's father right?" Naila whispered immediately said what was in her mind.
"What are you saying? Don't talk carelessly, Naila."
"Oh come on, you can't lie to me, Anna. I can tell with just one glance," said Naila teasing Anna.
"He already has a fiancé," Anna said then left Naila, making the girl speechless.
Walking into the living room, Dave reluctantly got down and let go of Anna's arms.
"Dave isn't naughty, is he?" Asked the woman right after landing her body on the sofa and sitting Dave on her lap.
The one who was asked just nodded, rested his head on Anna's chest, and hugged her tightly again.
"Mom, I don't want to be away from you anymore," Dave said in his childlike voice.
"Sure, honey. I won't let that happen again," Anna replied.
"Are you promise?"
"Yes, I promise," said Anna.
Meanwhile, on the other hand, when Anna and Dave arrived in the living room, never once did Devan take his eyes off the boy.
