Amara Wants to Have a Mom

34. Disillusioned

Alvian drove the car at high speed. It seems that the mood of the father of one child is not okay at this time.

Of course the change in attitude made Anika suspicious, but the woman did not dare to ask given the conditions of the streets were quite crowded. He did not want to break Alvian's concentration which was still focused on the steering.

Arriving at the courtyard of his residence, as usual Alvian opened the car door for Anika and the two entered the house together.

Then Alvian quickly entered the room, Anika caught up with him and helped Alvian remove the shirt attached to his body. "Yes..."

"Hmm.." muttered Alvian looking fixedly at Anika.

"Mas why? Was I angry because of what Dad said?" ask Anika to know. He thought Alvian was offended given Suherman's unkind attitude.

"No, Mas's okay." buzzed Alvian.

"Then?" Anika frowned, trying to find honesty in Alvian's eyes.

Instantly Alvian cut off eye contact with Anika and then chose to lie on a mattress with a half-naked body. He rubbed his face violently, after which inhaled as much air as possible.

"Mas.." Anika softly looked, she came to the bed and lay down beside Alvian. Anika rested her chin on the hairy chest of her husband, one hand playing on the tip of Alvian's chest. "What's up, Mom? I think Mas's thinking something,"

Back Alvian took Anika intimately and then clenched her tightly and kissed the head of his wife affectionately. Alvian was hesitant on how to tell Anika all this.

"Why is the world so narrow?" alvian asked softly while rubbing Anika's head.

"Mommy mean?" Anika again knitted her brows, she did not understand Alvian's intentions at all.

"Actually..." Alvian stopped saying, he was really confused how to start.

"What exactly, Mom?" hose Anika curious.

Alvian paused for a moment thinking of something that could have happened after this. She fears Anika's love for Amara will be lost if she finds out that the woman she hates is Amara's real mother, the woman who had given birth to her daughter and left the boy at a very young age.

Alvian does not want Anika to make Amara as a tool to avenge her heartache on Lira, a woman who has done a lot of cheating to get what she wants.

"Lira is Mas's ex-wife, she's Amara's real mother. Women who have left us because they cannot live in poverty" said Alvian plainly, however Anika should know about this.

"What?" Anika was surprised by her perfectly rounded eyes, and she immediately distanced herself from Alvian.

Alvian who saw a drastic change in Anika's countenance immediately smiled bitterly, she was sure Anika could not accept this fact easily.

Just as Alvian was about to approach Anika, his wife had already left the room. Anika ran in a hurry and chose to enter the next room.

Yes, Anika indeed could not take this for granted. He was completely shocked to find out who the Lira really was. Alvian said, Why is the world so narrow? Why does her stepmother have to be her husband's ex-wife?

After locking the door, Anika threw her body on the mattress, her crying broke instantly. After all that Lira has done to him, will she be able to look at Amara with her usual affection? I think this is too hard to understand.

"Well..." Alvian rubbed his face rough and ruffled his hair in frustration. What's he supposed to do? Anika must hate him and also Amara, however Alvian knows exactly that Anika really does not like his ex-wife.

Not wanting to drag on in the matter, Alvian quickly got up from his seat. He walked towards the closet and picked up the tee shirt and put it on. After that he stepped out of the room, he had to straighten out this matter with Anika immediately.

Arriving in front of the tightly shut door, Alvian pressed the knob slowly. Unfortunately the door cannot be opened because it is locked from the inside. "Darling, please open the door! I want to talk" cried Alvian while knocking on the door.

Instantly the silence hit because there is no truth from inside there. Anika who heard Alvian's voice covered her ears with a pillow, she was not ready to meet or talk to her husband.

"Nika, please baby, open the door!" lirih Alvian with a trembling voice. But Anika would not open the door for him.

"What is wrong with you? Why are you being like this? Please don't link that woman's problem to our relationship! Talk baby, don't punish me like this!" Alvian leaned lethargic on the door, she did not understand how to convince Anika to talk to him.

"Lad..."

Alvian gasped in surprise when he caught the arrival of Amara who was running towards him. She quickly wiped away the trail of tears on her cheeks, and she did not want Amara to be sad to see her disappointed face.

"Darling, are you home?" Alvian caught up with Amara and raised the tiny body to her sling.

"Papa why? How is his face so sad?" the boy asked while looking at Alvian.

"No, Papa is not sad. Look at!" Alvian carved a wide smile revealing his extremely neat rows of teeth.

"Hehe... Very handsome," flattered Amara chuckled. " Oh yeah, Mama where, Pa?" add the little girl with a wobbly head to the left and right.

Alvian then fell silent for a while, he was confused what to answer. "Mommy's sleeping, Amara's the same Papa used to be." Alvian's alibi was looking for an excuse, he didn't want Amara to know what was going on.

"But Amara wants to see Mama, Pa. Amara wants to show something to Mama" said the boy.

"Amara wants to see what Mama is like? Can Papa see?" alvian asked, trying to distract Amara, and took her daughter to the room.

Upon arrival in the room, Alvian sat Amara on the side of the bed with her favorite hello kitty character, then she crouched down and opened the shoes and socks worn by her daughter.

"Thank you, Pa." said Amara smiling sumringah then released the bag that was on her back. He took out his picture book and showed it proudly.

"There was a drawing task from Master, Amara made a picture of the three of us. This is Papa, this is Amara and this is Mama. Good no, Pa?" said the boy while pointing one by one the picture of the person he was painting.

Instantly, Alvian's vision clouded the images his daughter had made. His heart was filled with chaotic thoughts that were shackling in his mind.

Honestly, he was very happy to see Amara who loved Anika so much. However, Alvian was also sad to think about how Anika would react when she saw this.

Alvian felt Anika would no longer be able to treat Amara as she normally would, Alvian was completely confused thinking this.
