A Different Soul

The Three Companions

Episode thirteen (13)

" Why Son?" tanyakanya.

" In a moment, aunt Nanci will have a little sister" said the boy innocently.

" Really?" Alex then looked at Septian and Nanci, his wife alternately. As if looking for justification for Jeje's words.

Septian then nodded, and it made Alex smile happily.

" Yes uncle. Then, when did Angela's uncle and aunt get married, in order to get a sister as well as Septian uncle and aunt Nanci?" jeje said with a typical slurred accent of children. And that made Alex round his eyes.

" Who taught you to ask questions like that?." Alex is surprised by the question Jeje asks him. Because he was surprised, at the age of Jeje who was still a toddler, could ask things that are adult.

" Papa," he replied innocently.

Alex feels angry at Ansel for teaching Jeje things he did not deserve to know as a child.

Alex stared intently at Ansel, as if ready to pounce. But Ansel looked the other way, pretending not to know what was happening. He whistled like he was mocking Alex.

Alex suddenly smiled. As if getting a brilliant idea, Alex smiled at Ansel with a meaningful smile.

" Jeje knows aunt Fany doesn't?" alex asked while glancing at Ansel.

" Aunty Fany?" her parrot.

" Yes aunt Fany. Hasn't Jeje met Aunt Fany before?"

" Oh yes Uncle, that beautiful Aunt Fany, right?. Jeje had indeed met with Aunt Fany, at that time the father offered her to go up to the father's back," Jeje said with language that was still a mess.

Just contact Ansel's eyes perfectly rounded to hear the child's words that reveal his secret.

Ansel immediately turned the attention of the child so as not to discuss about Fany again. He was only afraid that his wife would misunderstand him.

While Alex chuckled satisfied with the resistant laughter.

" Kid you must be hungry, we eat yuk!" take Ansel to his son just to distract him.

" Jeje was eating on the plane, did you forget?" answer Jeje.

Ansel then patted his forehead because his effort was not successful.

" emmmm, then just the others. Or do you want to go somewhere, take a walk for example?"

Not until there Ansel's efforts to divert the attention of the little boy. All Ansel has to offer, but Jeje still discusses Fany who he considers the beautiful aunt.

" Uncle, remember not?" he said talk to Alex.

" What is that?"

" At that time my father also asked for his contact number" said the four-and-a-half-year-old boy.

" Oh yes," said Alex with a sparkling face.

While Ansel had started to get confused because Natasya began to stare sharply at him.

" What does this mean?" natasha asked with a sharp look.

" Dear, this isn't what you imagined, believe me!" he said while pleading.

" Sister-in-law! it seems, in the future you should be more careful to guard this swamp crocodile!" alex sounded mocking.

" Come on bang, don't you ruin the mood!" please Ansel to Alex.

" You don't seem to know Alex, he likes it that way" Septian said.

" Hey, I'm just trying to save my brother-in-law from this one guy" Alex replied in disbelief. Septian, Nanci and Jeje also laughed at Alex's words that were rather rendom. Except Ansel was upset by Alex.

" Care attention, you bang!. I'll tell Angela's sister-in-law that you used to love young girls" Ansel said, feeling displeased and wanting to take revenge on Alex.

" Hey, that's the past. Angela will definitely understand."

But unfortunately others already know that Alex still has feelings for other girls.

" This you!! can't keep a secret" said Alex as he clenched his teeth.

Ansel tries to get Alex's hand out of his mouth.

" Wahh, do you really still have feelings for another girl?" septian asked who was also curious.

" Yes, the girl used to be his admirer" not Alex who replied, but Ansel who had been separated from Alex.

Suddenly everyone was flabbergasted to hear Ansel's story, especially Septian who did not know the story from the beginning, when they were always together, but why only Ansel was told about it.

" You hid it from me bang? or from all of us except Ansel's bang?" ask Septian.

Alex seemed to nod and bow, then let out a long sigh.

" I'm sorry. It's just the past" he said, bowing.

He tries to hide the sadness on his face, but it can be seen by Ansel and Septian who have been with Alex for a long time.

They both approached Alex and patted him on the shoulder.

They do not know exactly what the past has been hidden by Alex, but they also do not want to see Alex who seems very hit.

" Ahh-have. Let's go home now, I've been wanting a break!" septian said that he just wanted to distract Alex.

" Alright, come!!"

Denisa and Angela who after coming from the house Nyi Madam have arrived at home.

They choose to rest first before finally tomorrow they will carry out the mission, which is to apologize.

" Ah-Alean, I'm so tired" Denisa said as she stretched her muscles.

They were in front of Alex's apartment and were still in the car.

" Yes, I'm also very tired" Angela replied.

" Then I'm going to go back to your house first, tomorrow I'll be here again to see Alex," Denisa said.

" Yes," Angela replied with a forced smile.

" I'll go home first."

" all right. Please take care of my mother while I'm here yes" Angela told Denisa.

" Surely, I'll take care of him for you. He deserves to be taken care of, he's a very nice man." Hearing her mother being praised in such a way by Denisa, Angela smiled happily.

" Oh yeah. You know a food called jengkol no?" ask Denisa.

" You know, it's my favorite food that mom used to cook for me." Given that, somehow Angela so miss Lita, her mother.

" How does it feel?"

" It sure tastes delicious, so why?"

" Nothing. Only, your mother offered me the food before leaving, because I was in a hurry, I refused it. I really wanted to taste it" Denisa told me.

" really? then how did my mother react when you rejected her?" Angela closed her eyes. Because he thought, at this time his mother must have wondered why he suddenly refused the food.

" Yes, he was pensive after I refused the food, why?"

" It's okay." And of course the answer is a lie. Actually he was thinking and afraid if his mother was sad by his sudden change.

On the one hand, he thought about his mother's feelings, and on the other hand he was unable to leave Alex.

For several years he could only admire the beauty of the handsome face through his cellphone, but after he was found, he had to leave it again.
