A week after the bubbled laundry incident, the couple finally stopped arguing in every little tiny detail. They found the perfect center to finally agree with each other. Nat knew she could get anything she want from him and she will not use it to her advantage.

She never found a guy who willing to give her everything or do anything for her just to make her happy. She knew she would do anything for him too. His happiness and the smile on his face were the thing that most important to her.

The realization made them found the perfect harmony in their relationship.

Nat finally decided it was time for her to tell her parents about the moving in together and the timing was perfect because her mom and Sarah wanted to spend some time with the young couple. They will meet up for the shopping today.

"Mrs. Romanov." Steve greeted when he saw Nat's mom and Sarah approached them. "Mom."

They greeted each other with a hug. Aliana and Sarah had a very good time bonding with one another. They always spend time together talking and watching their kids being in a relationship. Alexandre and Nicholas always traveled back and forth to Europe for work. Aliana was the one who organize their home and family affair. Another important reason was she wanted to be there for her daughter.

Nat couldn't be happier to spend a lot of time with her mother. They bonded faster than expected. Nat had her mother/daughter moment for the first time in her life. They went shopping together. Aliana brought her a lot of clothes even she insisted she didn't need it. (To be honest, Steve and Sarah brought her a lot of things that she told them she didn't need it too.)

Every important people in her life was bonding but there was only two people left, Steve and Nicholas.

"Hey, guys. Sorry I'm late. It was quite busy at the new HQ." Nicholas appeared with two bodyguards in black suits. The man frowned when he saw his mother was alone without any protection. "Mother, we talk about this. You need to bring the bodyguard with you."

"Son, no one knows who we are here. I don't need a bodyguard to follow me around."

"Mother..."

"We will talk about this at home, Nicholas."

Nicholas let his guard followed them but kept their distance because Sarah and Steve were obviously uncomfortable with it. Natasha too wasn't get used to have this kind of thing in her life.

She knew her brother will force her to have her bodyguard soon.

"Steven." Nicholas said when he saw Steve at his sister's side.

"Nicholas."

They stared at each other but Nat eased the tension by pulling them both into the store. Nat was enjoying her shopping with Sarah and Aliana while Steve and Nicholas kept their eyes on her.

"The thing you said earlier about bodyguard. I couldn't agree more." Steve spoke up. "Nat needs one."

"I assume that you are just saying casually and there is nothing going on that may threatening my sister's safety."

"You know I only talk to you when it is really serious and it's about Nat."

"What happened then?"

"I started the war with my football friend. Well, I did broke the agreement and stop being friend with them. They didn't do anything yet but I know them. They will do it soon and I don't want them to get to me by hurting her."

"So this is one of your mess."

"Yes, and I'm sorry for dragging her into this."

"She told me you are the most powerful guy in the campus but why do you need my assistance?"
