The night has started falling into country A. Time 7:30 PM.
Most of the people left for their home. But Luceniel still in the lab with James, they talk about the Ruby of star sudden reaction problem. "It's very complicated for me also Luceniel. If you didn't find a solution to this, it may lead to a destruction."
Luceniel put a smile on face, he stands up and spoke. "let's just not rush sir. We have plenty of time."
'sigh'
"Maybe for you Luceniel." James's voice feels heavy and sad. his eyes dark circle gets heavy. "it's good to be young. Hey Luceniel I'm not in place to say that but—" he stops. He remembers his late wife and the time he spends with her.
The only reason James help to live on is her granddaughter and grandson. He is grateful to his wife that's she never leaves him. "He—he—he" he looks directly into Luceniel eyes and mumbled. "Go home kid. It's getting late."
'nod'
'KSHAAANG!'
Luceniel enters his personal room and take a shower, change clothes. While Luceniel's in the shower, GeoMarx makes sure to copy all the data into Luceniel's iPad.
Meanwhile on CEO office. Elunara almost done with today's work. Her assistant helps her where she needed, and Lily is pouting for some reason to Elunara.
"Hey Rin, give me copy of group xeo offer." Her assistant Rin quickly goes out of the room to bring copy. "Lily, are you still angry?" Lily on couch looking outside of window.
"HPMM."
'sigh'
Elunara goes near Lily and sits beside her. "Lilyy."
"HEMPP."
Elunara take lily in her arms and offer a piece of candy. Her eyes spark to candy but she didn't eat. Tries her best to not look at her mommy's eyes.
"Okay sweetie, mommy promise you can go to lab with daddy."
Lily's face gets bright and shout. "Really?"
'nod'
"Thank you!" she eats the candy. Elunara look at watch and whisper. "Maybe we should go home now." Elunara look outside, the rising moon into the sky and the red cloud.
Rin brings the copy of paper and hand over to Elunara.
"Thank you, Rin." Rin bow a little and didn't say anything. Lily goes and sit on Elunara chair, looking through her computer. Rin try to explain Lily but Elunara let her do she wants.
"ma'am but what if your daughter—"
Elunara stop Rin and spoke. "it's okay Rin, she is smart enough to understand." Rin still confused why Elunara gave so much freedom to Lily. Not everyone know Lily is a demi-human right now.
"Rin?"
"Yes ma'am!"
"The xeo group really develop the heart pill?"
"it's not official ma'am, even after knowing our company is direct opposite to them. they still offer this kind of thing." Rin Explain further with a calm voice. "From beginning Xeo group and vale group never had a direct conflict with each other. The Xeo group works on medical field, and the vale group works on mechanical field. Even your late father surprised to see the offer."
"We—can't trust them now. Rin hold this offer and arrange a meeting for me with Xeo group CEO."
"As your wise ma'am." Rin type something on her tablet, suddenly a knock comes.
'knock..knock..'
"Hey Elunara it's me." It's Luceniel outside of room. Lily jump from the chair and goes to open door but Rin already open it. Lily hugs Luceniel legs, her small cute face makes Rin nose Bleeding. She covers her nose with a napkin and greet Luceniel.
Luceniel take Lily on arms and asks Rin. "Are you okay?"
'nod'
"Okay— hey Lily did you have fun." Lily said no and makes a crying face.
She cries and whisper. "it's so much boring. Mummy didn't even notice me many times and only look at paper and screen." Elunara flinch and spoke. "Hey it's not true, we even go outside in lunch."
Elunara remember something from Lunch and asks. "Rin, can you give us some space."
"Sure ma'am." She goes outside and sits on near chair. Everyone already left only they are remained here.
Inside the office Elunara asks Luceniel with a slimily face. "Why you didn't come for Lunch?"
'gulp'
'hesitated'
'Look other side.'
"Sorry I was just a bit busy." Elunara didn't make any fuse and asks to go home. But before Luceniel respond Lily asked. "Daddy, did you finish with ruby of star?"
'shocked'
"No sweetie, but how did you know we working of that." Luceniel and Elunara flinched for a second and asks in hurry. "YOU DIDN' T GO TO LAB RIGHT, LILY."
Lily covers her ears and said no, points toward Elunara computer. Elunara go and sit on chair and saw. All the report Luceniel and vale group scientist right are on Elunara computer. Luceniel very confused. They didn't give any report to outsider and no one enter lab.
He whispers. "Why all the reports here?" he looks at Elunara face. She also didn't have any clue then Lily responds.
"I connect Mommy computer to your iPad daddy." Luceniel and Elunara look at Lily smiling face but both of them have different reaction toward Lily. But they didn't scold or do anything.
Elunara remove all the document regrading Ruby of star researcher. And shut down her computer. "let's go home." She whispers calmly. Both Luceniel and Elunara exhausted tonight.
Elunara take Lily from Luceniel hands, and handover cars keys to him. "You drive!" that's not a request but an order from Elunara. Luceniel take keys and goes outside.
Rin already left the office with her Boyfriend. Elunara, Lily and Luceniel goes company underground floor and sit on Elunara personal car.
"Lily take a nap before Home." Elunara rub Lily's cheek with warm hands, Lily doesn't want to go Sleep but her body sleep on her on.
'VRRRAAAMMM!'
This is not Luceniel first time driving car, but he is a bit tired.
After 30 minutes. They reach their home. Elunara take a little nap in car, her beautiful face a bit red from cold. Luceniel blush and didn't wake her yet.
He goes near Elunara lips and tries to kiss her. He can feel Elunara breath but before he kisses. Elunara awake.
