Victoria, who had been so bored in the room since the afternoon, decided to leave Leo's room on the second floor, choosing to breathe fresh air outside the house.
Victoria did not even expect, if her foot that had stepped to go to the side terrace, beside the swimming pool of the magnificent house of the Arshlan family, had brought her to meet the bustle of the maids and a number of guards, he said, who was preparing the place, for the welcoming party Luiz's arrival tomorrow day.
For a moment Victoria just stared at all the busyness, before a pair of eyes had been pounded on a maid who was wiping a pile of ceramic plates on a long table, not far from where Victoria was standing.
"Can I help?" asked Victoria, who had offered herself to the maid, that she also wanted to go along with wiping the pile of ceramic plates.
"Miss Victoria ...?" the maid looks a little stunned by the presence of Victoria, who is currently the only daughter-in-law in the Arshlan family.
"I was getting very bored, not knowing what to do. So, there's no harm if I want to help you ...?"
Victoria had thrown her body onto the bench, and took a clean cloth arranged high on the table.
Then deftly Victoria immediately grabbed a ceramic plate and began to wipe it carefully.
"Miss, don't do this job. Let me just ..."
"It's okay, I like it." Victoria smiled, dismissing the sentence of the maid who of course felt reluctant when Victoria insisted on helping him.
Apart from a general secret that the existence of the figure of Victoria until this moment can not also be received well by the great mistress, but still the status of Victoria is a daughter-in-law in the Arshlan family.
So naturally it felt, if the maid was honestly very objected if Victoria did the work of the maid, but became powerless because Victoria still insisted.
"It's okay. Just keep working and don't mind me. I'll stop myself when I'm tired." said Victoria again with a smile, as if to convince the maid, that she was fine, despite having to do such a job.
"Alright, Miss ...". in the end the maid relented, choosing to continue her work that had been neglected because of the awkwardness that whack due to Victoria's presence
For nearly half an hour, Victoria struggled with dishes and a washcloth. He had ignored all the gazes of the guards and other maids who seemed to stare in wonder at his existence and what he was doing.
"Miss Victoria, if you feel tired, you'd better take a break."
Victoria raised her head and shook her head. "No, I'm not tired yet. Besides, I've said it, right, that staying in the room always bored me.." Victoria refused, without stopping the slightest movement of her hand that was continuing to work.
"What are you doing here?" a voice well known to Victoria had greeted her eardrum.
"Mommy, I .. I can't sleep, so I'm fad help ..."
"Momm, did Mommy find Victoria?" another voice, also very familiar to Victoria, was heard approaching.
"Where can he go?" lana said indifferently responding to Leo's words spoken with a little breathless, still with a flat voice and a gaze that remained straight towards Victoria.
Leo had been there just like that, a little stunned when he realized the figure he was looking for was on the side, and sat down with a maid while wiping a ceramic plate!
"Why are you also wiping the dishes?" the man asked in a tone of astonishment, while furrowing an eyebrow.
"Egh, anu .. I .. just a fad .." said Victoria gasped, while hurriedly getting up from his seat and put the lap in his hand on the table with a slightly nervous movement typical of people sniffed.
Leo looked at Victoria who seemed to be standing wrong under the gaze of Mommy and herself.
"If you intend to help, then you are wrong. Your presence will actually make them uncomfortable to work." said Lana while directing her notes for a moment toward the maid who had been bowed so deeply while continuing to wipe the dishes, while continuing to wipe the dishes, not daring to raise his face to find the scene that had happened in front of his nose.
"I'm sorry, Momm, I really don't think that my presence has made him uncomfortable at work. Sorry ..."
Victoria was bowed in, but Lana no longer rubbed it. He had chosen to focus on the whereabouts of Leo who had just arrived a moment ago.
"Darling, have you eaten yet? Want Mommy to make dinner?" lana asked attentively.
Leo seemed to shake his head, "No, Momm, I ate at the photo shoot" Leo refused.
"Wait, this afternoon Mommy made your favorite chocolate pudding. You want to not taste it a little ...?"
"Let's go with Mommy" Lana has taken her son's arm to enter the house.
Seeing that, even with a shaky step, Victoria finally chose to follow the steps of the two figures to enter the house as well.
"Leo, sit here." Lana had led Leo towards the sofa in the middle room, and her gaze turned towards Victoria. "Vic, go to the kitchen, and get Leo's favorite chocolate pudding in the fridge."
"Okay, Momm." Victoria nodded, stepping into the kitchen, where the refrigerator contained Leo's favorite chocolate pudding was located.
When Victoria returned, she had seen the familiarity of Lana talking to Leo.
"Come," Lana said, his hand reached out to grab the pudding plate that Victoria had brought, and then immediately handed it to Leo. "Here, eat ..."
Lana smiles when she sees Leo begin to taste the pudding that became Leo's favorite since Leo was a child, while Victoria was still standing finally sat her body in one of the empty couches that were located right in front of Leo, just watching the sweet interaction between mother and child in silence.
"Hows it? Yummy?" Lana asked again impatiently, as if Leo's answer and judgment were very important to her.
"Hhhhmm ..." Leo nodded, busy putting the delicious pieces of pudding into his mouth until the toilet so quickly.
"You again?"
"Enough, Momm." reject Leo still while chewing the last piece of pudding in his mouth, while putting a small plate of the former pudding on the table.
"Oh yeah, Leo, have you met Dasha yet?" lana asked again, suddenly, as soon as she remembered something.
Leo shook his head in unison, glancing at the clock that was coiling in his hand. "Not yet, but it looks like it's getting late, Momm, the boy must have fallen asleep ..."
"But since this afternoon when he arrived from the dormitory, Dasha kept asking you non-stop. Said you'd grant her request ..."
"Oh, that's ..." Leo let out a laughing break, remembering Dasha's request.
"What did Dasha ask you, Leo?" lana asked again with curiosity.
"Dasha and her friends idolize Lisa. That's why she wanted to ask Lisa for her autograph and for her friends." Leo replied still smiling.
"Then?"
"Then what, Momm?"
"Have you brought Lisa's autograph, at the request of Dasha and her friends?" lana's mouth confirmed, but Leo's head had made Lana raise both eyebrows. "Leo, why didn't you approve Dasha's request? Haven't you been with Lisa lately on many occasions ...? Mommy even sees you together in every interview and some television programs ..."
"Sstt, Mom, calm down .. I did not intentionally carry Lisa's signature, but I did something bigger to please the spoiled boy." concluded Leo with a smile full of mystery.
"You mean ..."
"Not only autographs, I have invited the person directly to come to the party tomorrow, special for Dasha and her friends .." Luiz said with a proud smile, especially when you see a flash of a smile like Lana.
"Leo, you're so great. Dasha would have been happy to know that she could have met her idol artist face to face ..."
"Of course ..." Leo returned Lana's smile, also with a smile, but felt a little disturbed when he had to watch the contrasting scene before him, where Victoria was seen throwing her face away ...
Without a smile ...
