Mark has arrived in the city of Sicily, coming to his adoptive brother's house to meet his nephew.
The house looks the same. Mark last visited there five years ago, before the big trouble happened.
Now he is back, with the hope that his brother will still accept him well.
Mark stepped up to knock on the door, but at the same time the door opened, revealing his sister-in-law- Sona.
"Honey, hurry up and see who's coming," Sona called to her husband.
Mark was really nervous to meet his brother after so long.
How did he respond when he came after the big problem that happened?
"Who's coming?" Arden asked, making Mark's heart beat even faster.
Arden widened his eyes when he saw his sister coming.
"MARK!" She screamed and immediately hugged him tightly.
Mark returned the hug just as tightly. He truly missed his brother.
"Who did you come with?" Arden asked as he looked around, hoping his sister would come with her partner.
"Alone," Mark answered, making Sona just laugh a little when her guess was right.
The three of them immediately turned their heads when the taxi arrived.
"That's your nephew," Arden said with his arm around Mark's shoulder.
Mark didn't take his eyes off the beautiful girl who got out of the taxi.
Really beautiful and perfect.
"Uncle Mark!" Selva exclaimed, immediately jumping into Mark's arms.
Mark, who was hugged so easily by Selva, felt unprepared, his heart was beating faster now.
"When are you coming?" Selva asked with sparkling eyes.
"Just now," answered Mark, suddenly nervous after not seeing his nephew for 5 years.
"Come on in, your sister just happened to be cooking," said Arden, putting her arm around Mark's shoulder to get him inside.
-
Mark didn't expect that he would be welcomed by his brother after the big problem last year that resulted in him being kicked out of the Dolton family.
Arden truly loves and considers Mark as her little brother.
That's what made Mark really love and sincerely consider Arden as his brother even though he was only an adopted child who was used as bait for his birth.
"We've lost contact for a long time, I thought you didn't think of me as your brother anymore," Arden joked, making Mark laugh.
"How could that happen, I did lose your contact number, sis, but I can come here whenever I want, I will always think of you as my brother, forever," said Mark, emphasizing that he really loves Arden as his brother.
Sona then asked, "You haven't been here for a long time, maybe 5 years, why did you suddenly come without any news? Do you have any happy news for us? Like your wedding?" Sona teased, making Mark laugh.
Selva, who heard this, suddenly became in a bad mood.
Why did I suddenly feel bothered by my mother's question? Wouldn't it be great if Uncle got married? Selva thought to herself.
"I still have no intention of getting married, sis, besides I'm still young," he said, making Arden and Sona laugh.
Mark glanced at Selva who just kept quiet, as if she was holding back her annoyance.
"What about you, Sel? Are you going to continue your studies or work?" Mark asked, turning his question to Selva.
Selva took a deep breath and replied, "I don't know, uncle, the college entrance exam announcement is still less than 2 weeks away." Mark just nodded with a look that couldn't lie if he was truly captivated by his niece's beauty.
"Where? Palermo or Milan?" Mark asked about Selva's studies.
Selva glanced at Mark and went back to playing with her phone, "Palermo!" Mark's heart immediately felt happy when he heard that answer.
"Oh yeah, sis, if I stay here for a few days, do you mind?" Selva immediately looked at Mark, there was a little feeling of happiness and joy in her heart at this time.
Arden and Sona exchanged glances.
"What are you doing Mark, this is my own house, also yours, you can come and stay whenever you want, why ask me?" Arden's surprise made Mark smile happily and relieved.
Sona nodded and added, "Stay as you wish here, we'd be happy if you could stay a few days here for now, because we have to go out of town tomorrow Mark. We're always nervous when we leave Selva alone at home. If you'd like, please take care of Selva for us for a while, how about that?" Mark nodded enthusiastically without thinking.
Selva swallowed her saliva, she looked embarrassed when Mark looked at her.
"What did you say, I'm fine even though I'm home alone," he said to cover up his current feeling of being salty.
Mark just smiled and continued his conversation with Arden and Sona.

The next morning
Selva stretched for a long time and felt too lazy to get out of bed at this time.
The cool feeling of the sheets and bolsters really added to the pleasant sensation of his sleep at that moment.
It made him even lazier to get out of bed.
"Selva, come on, have breakfast," Mark said from outside.
Selva stretched lazily again and only turned to her right side instead of getting up straight away.
Suddenly the door opened revealing Mark.
"You won't wake up?" Selva immediately opened her eyes when she realized that this wasn't her father's voice.
Selva opened her blanket and turned her head, how surprised she was when she saw Mark standing at the end of her bed.
For a moment he was stunned by his uncle's sexy appearance.
Black t-shirt with white thigh-length pants.
Likewise, Mark was momentarily captivated by Selva's appearance.
A white oversized t-shirt with shorts is not more mini because it is very short.
Selva immediately got up and brushed her hair back, looking at her open door as if looking for someone.
"Your parents left this morning, they left early to avoid the traffic jam, so uncle has prepared breakfast for you, let's have breakfast together, after that take uncle to your garden," said Mark who looked very enthusiastic.
Selva simply nodded and immediately got out of bed. Because her spirit hadn't fully recovered, her steps faltered due to her lack of balance. Mark quickly caught Selva's slender body.
"Watch your step," said Mark, immediately sitting Selva on the edge of the bed, checking Selva's feet.
"Does it hurt?" Selva shook her head slowly, making Mark sigh softly.
Selva swallowed as Mark massaged her feet. There was a strange tingling sensation as her body touched his.
"Okay, wash your face then go out for breakfast," Selva just nodded. As soon as Mark came out of her room she immediately held her chest.
"What's wrong with me?" Selva muttered as she rubbed her suddenly warm cheeks.
Selva rushed to the bathroom to get rid of her nervousness which had arisen for some reason.
But Selva knew that being around Mark was many times more dangerous than anything else. And it was bad for her heart health.
