"Mother!" Call a boy from the doorway.
The two women who were chatting in the room, immediately turned to the source of the voice. They smiled when they saw the boy smiling beautifully.
"You're alone, son? Where's umar?" Ask one of the women, who is none other than Aini.
"Umar didn't go to school, Mother." Honest to the boy. That's Kenzo.
"No leaving?" Repeat Aini can't believe it.
Kenzo nodded. He sat down next to Aini. Not to forget, Kenzo greeted Aini as usual.
Aini immediately prepared the provisions he brought for Kenzo as usual. But, his mind also can not be separated from his son who today did not go to school.
As Aini prepared Kenzo's provisions, Mala immediately contacted Umar and Kenzo's homeroom. He wanted to ask why Umar did not go to school today.
"Umar's homeroom teacher said he had family business." Sela Mala after she finished contacting Umar's homeroom.
"Family business?" Aini was confused.
"He's fine. Relax!" Said a man, who suddenly appeared at the entrance.
Everyone then looked.
"Sir Ardi." Inner Aini.
"Father!" Call Kenzo happy.
The man smiled at Kenzo.
"Good morning, sir." Sapa Mala, standing up from her chair to greet the guest, Ardi.
"Morning, Miss Mala." Answer Ardi kindly.
Kenzo immediately stood up and approached his father.
"Come on Pa, sit down!" Kenzo said enthusiastically, while pulling Ardi's hand to sit on the long chair he was sitting in.
"Try it, Pa! This is the roll omelette made by Mother. Delicious lhoo." Excited Kenzo enthusiast.
Kenzo immediately took out a piece of rolled omelet that Aini had brought for him, and immediately fed it to the father. Ardi could not resist the simple wishes of his son. It bites the omelet roll that Kenzo feeds
"Yes, good." Ardi said briefly while smiling at Kenzo.
Ardi immediately looked at Aini. He could see clearly, Aini's worried face that had not disappeared.
"Try Kenzo to feed Mother!" Pinta Ardi suddenly, to distract Aini.
Kenzo nodded steadily.
"Let's Mother, aaaaa," Kenzo immediately fed the remaining pieces of rolled omelet in her hand to Aini.
Aini who is unfocused, reflexively opens her mouth and takes a bribe from Kenzo. Aini bit the omelette roll a little.
"If." Inner Mala haru, while looking at the simple scene in the room.
"Kenzo, that's Papa's bite mark." Tegur Ardi suddenly.
Kenzo and Aini immediately turned to Ardi. Kenzo innocently looked at his father in confusion. While Aini, immediately became clumsy because it ate omelettes rolled up Ardi bite marks.
Aini was confused by the rolled omelette that was still in her mouth. If he spits it out, it would be very disrespectful. And it'll look weird, because it's his own homemade rolled omelet. But if he continued to eat it, it looked really awkward. Remember, it was Ardi's bite marks.
"What's the matter, Pa? Papa's the same as Kenzo." Plain Kenzo.
Aini still did not react. He was confused to treat the piece of omelet roll in his mouth.
"Oh, how is this? Why did I daydream too?" Inner Aini panic.
"Darling, you're Papa's son. No papa if you eat Papa bite marks, or vice versa. If you're not, dear." Ardi was obviously his.
Kenzo fell silent. He was trying to understand Ardi's words.
"Kenzo also used to bribe Mother, the food that Mother brought" Denied Kenzo.
"Kan Kenzo is a kid." Ardi was slow.
"Say Papa, Kenzo is big. How did you get to be a kid?" Kenzo Protest.
"I mean Papa, if Kenzo is getting older, don't feed Kenzo bite marks to other people. It's rude, son." Sela Aini suddenly.
The pair of father and son who were having a little argument, immediately turned to Aini.
"Is this really eating it?" Inner Ardi did not believe.
"But, Papa and Kenzo can't, Mother?"
"Because he's your father." Answer Aini while rubbing Kenzo's cheek.
"So, why did you want to be fed Kenzo Papa's bite marks?" Ask Kenzo again.
Kenzo finally understood. He also sat back down. Sit between papa and his mother. And greedily, finishing the food that Aini had brought with her as she always did.
Until the break sign bell is finished. Kenzo returned to his class.
"Can I talk to you for a second?" Pinta Ardi, after Kenzo left.
Aini and Mala turned to Ardi.
"I, Sir?" Tanya Aini confirmed.
"Yes. Do you have time?" Answer Ardi politely.
"Yes, sir." Answer Aini briefly.
Mala finally said goodbye to leave the room. And let Ardi and Aini to talk together.
"You don't have to worry about Umar! Your lawyer is trying his best to get Umar back to you." Ardi's Advice.
Aini breathed her heavy breath. " good, Sir. Thank you." Thank you."
Aini's heart is still clouded. His feelings were not calm considering his son. He had a bad feeling with Umar's absence at school today.
"May you supply me?" Ask Ardi suddenly.
Aini who was a little dreamy, was surprised by Ardi's words.
"Sorry, Sir?" Ask Aini confused.
"Provided what you brought. Can that be for me?" Rework of Ardi friendly.
Aini was silent and did not react. He was confused by Ardi's attitude and speech.
"It's okay if you can't." Imbuh Ardi, after not getting a response from Aini.
"Oh, may sir, please! But this is just a simple meal, sir." Answer Aini sungkan.
"It's still edible, right?"
"What's? Oh, still Sir. It's just a traditional cake Umar ordered last week." Honest Aini.
Ardi smiled.
And all of a sudden, Aini's heart was pounding so fast looking at the smile of the handsome man before her. The atmosphere around him was suddenly silent. As if, he was in a vacuum, just alone with Ardi.
"Is Mr Ardi really this handsome?" Inner Aini with a gaze that has not been separated from Ardi.
Ardi realized Aini's imposition. He then cleared a little to resuscitate Aini.
Aini immediately shifted her eyes. He felt very embarrassed because he was caught staring at Ardi so closely. He was nervous and misbehaved.
"Oh, yes. This is sir, please! Sorry, if it doesn't taste right with your sense of taste." Aini said a little stammered from nervousness.
Aini also handed over the supply box that he put on the table since then to Ardi.
"Thank you." Answer Ardi briefly.
"Together, sir."
"I'll give it to Umar later." Inner Ardi.
"Is there anything else, sir?" Ask Aini immediately.
"Oh, no."
"Then, excuse me, sir."
"Sure, please!"
Aini immediately moved out of her chair. He then came out of the school living room with a feeling that was a little difficult to describe.
Worrying. Because Aini didn't know the real reason Umar didn't go to school today. He was afraid, if something bad happened to Umar.
Blissfully. I don't know for sure why his heart is happy. There was a feeling of nervousness and a bit of uneasiness whacking his heart from earlier. He thought about it all the way home.
"Why did my heart suddenly beat so fast? And why was I thinking like that to Mr. Ardi?" Aini muttered during the trip.
Aini really thought about her strange attitude towards Ardi earlier. He was a little confused by how he felt.
What about Ardi? Ardi abandoned Aini, with his feelings being in early spring. Ardi's feeling is a little flowery since a while ago.
Wh why? The reason is very simple. Because Aini was willing to take a bribe from Kenzo, who was Ardi's bite mark. Ardi didn't even know for sure, if Aini wasn't so aware, if it was Ardi's bite.
Ardi also did not even forget, how Aini had looked at him quite intensely and even a little nervous after Ardi slightly cleared his throat to resuscitate him.
"Is he fascinated by me?" Ardi muttered with a small smile.
