The Dead CINDERELLA's
EPS. 79. Christmas Tree.

Sierra is with Arthur at this time. After getting an answer from Carine, he left there regardless of the cry of Carine who called him while cursing.

" Dear, you know a guy named Carol Mahendra?" Sierra Say.

" Yes, he is both an enemy of TITANES as well as an enemy of the papi business. " Said Arthur.

" Carine calls him, he's a big man behind the scenes who should be dragged into the law." Sierra Say.

" The problem is the law can't touch it, baby. People like us have a lot of connections and protection, even if Tobias can handle it, but it's not necessarily that fast." Said Arthur.

" Then what should we do? Alden doesn't know where, and then this Carol.. Is he in the country?" Ask Sierra.

" To be honest I don't know either baby, he's also no stronger than TITANES but he's so crafty." Said Arthur.

" You take it easy okay, all this time maybe they always play neatly. But carcasses can't be hidden anywhere, can they? We'll know sooner or later." Arthur said again and Sierra nodded.

Before long they arrived at Arthur's residence, Arthur holding Sierra's hand so tightly as if afraid to escape.

" Dear, what do you want for lunch? Want me to cook?" Rose Arthur.

" Mm... Whatever, you cook." Sierra Say.

" Okay, let me make a choice. Vegetable salad or soup?" Said Arthur.

" Mm... Salad alone, I've never eaten your salad." Sierra Say.

" Okay, young lady Edward." Arthur said, and it was able to make Sierra laugh amusedly by himself.

One week later..

It has been a week since the news that Alden became a fugitive is still in discussion. Alden can't be found anywhere. Not even Ethan's team that went looking for him found Alden's whereabouts.

" Arthur, is it possible that Alden was murdered?" Sierra Say.

" If he's killed, then we don't have to worry he'll hurt you again right? That nice. " Said Arthur.

" But that's only if. If in reality he's silent already blending around us without us knowing, how?" Sierra Say.

" dear.. Don't you worry too much about it, I guess I'm still looking for it." Arthur rubbed the head of Sierra.

Currently he was in the middle room of Arthur's residence, they were watching television together.

" I'm just worried about hurting the people I care about. We're getting married soon, too, I'm afraid she's coming and ruining our wedding." Sierra Say.

" It's not gonna happen baby, I put all my men to protect us. And about marriage.. I've already prepared it. Not in this town, in another town." Said Arthur.

" Another town? What town?" Sierra Say.

" You'll know later, honey. It was a surprise." Said Arthur.

" Now, let's go buy some Christmas supplies." Said Arthur.

" Do you have a Christmas tree?" Ask Sierra.

" I didn't have it before. Now that there is you, I want to have a beautiful Christmas tree. We're gonna celebrate our Christmas together." Said Arthur.

Sierra smiled, and he never felt like he was going through Christmas with his family, because no one invited him to join. Sierra could only look at the Christmas tree on display in the shop as he passed by the highway.

Sierra was once envious of all those who missed Christmas with their families. He also wants to have someone who invites him to celebrate Christmas together, and now Sierra is invited by Arthur.

" Come on, I'll get ready." Sierra said enthusiastically.

Sierra jumped off the sofa and ran to his room to change clothes. Not until ten minutes, Sierra came back out with a casual appearance. He uses black Jeans with white shirt tops and Jeans jackets as the exterior.

" Dear! I'm ready." Sierra Say.

" Then come on." Said Arthur.

" You didn't change clothes? You go with the look of your house?" Sierra Say.

" This is a trick so that no enemy knows that I am in a crowded place. Isn't Arthur Edward's appearance always neat? If they see me, maybe they won't recognize me." Said Arthur.

Sierra smile.." Right, after all if you're in your formal attire, I feel like everyone is like an ant that makes you sugar. You better put it this way." Sierra Say.

Sierra took off his Jeans jacket, then put it on the sofa. Currently he only wears matching colored t-shirts with Arthur.

" Right, come on." Said Arthur.

They also went to the shopping center, their current goal is to find a large Christmas tree and all its ornaments. Sierra was so fascinated when he saw a white tree that was so big and beautiful.

Sierra walked around the tree, while Arthur saw another tree.

" Dear, it's bag.eh! Sorry I thought you were my lover." Sierra's wrong speech was holding a man's hand.

The man continued to stare at Sierra, until Sierra himself felt astonished.

" It's okay, miss, it's only natural that you've mistaken people in crowded places." Said the man.

Arthur comes to the Sierra when he sees the Sierra with a foreign man, then embraces the Sierra waist from behind while saying "What's the matter, baby?" Ask Arthur.

" Oh, this.. I mistakenly thought this master was you. I'm just apologizing." Sierra explained.

"Oh.. " Arthur's Sahut.

" It's okay, then excuse me." Say that guy with a smile.

The man's smile somehow made Sierra speechless. Sierra remembered that smile, Alden's smile. Sierra lived under Alden's control. But the faces of the two of them did not look alike in the least.

" Dear, what's wrong with you?" Said Arthur.

" I just feel like the guy's smile looks like Alden's." Sierra Say.

" You remember the smile?" Arthur was a little upset.

" That's not what I mean, baby, just feeling similar. I lived for years under his control. So there's still a memory spinning around in my head." Sierra Say.

" From now on, you can only remember my smile. Don't remember the smile, okay?" Arthur UCao.

Sierra chuckled to hear it, Apparently his Arthur is jealous right now.

" Yes dear." Sierra Say.

" Oh yeah, let's go find the Christmas tree." Said Arthur.

Meanwhile, behind the Christmas tree not far from where Sierra and Arthur are standing today, the man who previously met Sierra clenched his hands with a creepy smirk smile.

" Dear, how about we just buy this tree? She's so beautiful." Sierra said as he touched a large white Christmas tree.

" good.. That's good." Said Arthur.

" Okay, we'll take this. Then for the decoration.. I want a blue theme, is it okay?" Sierra Say.

" Whatever you want, baby, I'll come." Said Arthur.

Arthur was happy to see Sierra so enthusiastic. Visitors there looked at the couple so romantic and sweet. Arthur and Sierra buy a Christmas tree together, and it's full of affection. It makes anyone who sees it so envious.

Sierra took all the blue Christmas tree decorations. From dark blue to young, then he looked for decorative lights that are similar in color, namely blue. Sierra likes blue, his favorite blue is sky blue.

After finishing with all their groceries, Arthur and Sierra returned home. While their groceries will be delivered by the inter-service available there.

" Dear, can I say thank you? I'm really really happy right now." Sierra Say.

" You want to thank me? Just kiss me." Arthur Jahil.

" Ish, that's what you want." Sierra said suddenly a little upset.

" Haha.. Honey listen, mine is yours. Your happiness is my happiness, your sadness is my sorrow, you are my everything. To be happy is my duty, so there is no need to thank me. But.. If you really want to thank me, fine.. I allow it." Arthur gave up.

" Thank you.." Sierra hugged Arthur.

" The penalty remains in effect." Said Arthur.

" Eh, tap.. Um.." Sierra's speech came to a halt when Arthur silenced him with a kiss.

" I love you dear." Arthur said after taking off his kiss.

" I love you so much too." Sierra said with a smile.
