Being a Connecting Mother

That Feeling Will Go away Over Time

When all the members of the Brown family gathered at the dinner table to eat their dinner together, all was silent.

If Adira was still in the house then at least she would talk to Lily or occasionally with Aidan. But now things are different Lily even just quietly eating her food.

The atmosphere was cold, and there was no family warmth there.

“ Daddy after graduation announcement came out I will continue my study abroad ” Aidan open voice break that silence.

Nadia was surprised to hear her brother's intentions because she knew Aidan never intended to study abroad.

“ Your graduation is still six months away when you are sure to ask again ” replied Zein flat.

Aidan clasped the spoon in his strong hand, he felt very angry because no matter how he tried to talk to his family there was not even a single person who responded to it.

“ Lily is done eating Daddy ” said Lily gently.

“ Alright if Lily wants to go back to the room please just ” reply Zein, Lily stepped slowly from her chair then went to her room.

Zein just let the little girl go, for Aidan it shows how much his Daddy doesn't even care if it's just trying to hide his longing for Adira just like Aidan himself.

“ I'm done ” Aidan felt no taste anymore, then he immediately left there without saying anything more.

“ Daddy is it okay to let Kak Aidan go abroad? ” ask Nadia as soon as Aidan goes from there.

“ If that's what he wants ”

Nadia paused for a moment to accept Daddy's cold reply. He still clearly felt everyone's anger towards him because for them he was the cause of Adira's departure.

“ Why...all of you are cold and ignore me? Bu-not me who caused him to go ” Nadia said those words merrily also it felt difficult until she stammered.

Noah put down his tableware looking towards Nadia who lowered her head as if wanting to cry.

“ Nadia stop all this drama, Brother is getting fed up ” said Noah then left the dining table without a single care Zein's response to his words.

“ But I'm not lying you're all ignoring me. I told you it wasn't my fault, Grandma said Adira killed Mommy.” Nadia was crying.

Zein stomped his temple slowly could do nothing to see how messy the situation in this house was. Like a building whose foundation is slowly collapsing, that is the current state of his family.

“ It was his choice to leave this house.hiks..hix anyways not only am I evil..Daddy also hit him at that time because he left then why am I the only one to blame.hiks..hiks ” sobs Nadia without caring if her Daddy is angry, but she feels treated unfairly.

“ Daddy is not angry with you, I just feel embarrassed to not be able to say anything to you because it is because of my actions that made him leave here.” Zein said calmly.

“ If you cry here because your remorse for what you did to her is too late, that's also what I feel like it's really like to say sorry to the person we hurt but it's too late and that person won't come back as much as ”

Nadia looked at Zein with her eyes still streaming tears that were still flowing.

“ It would be nice if you could say that you miss and feel the loss, rather than crying like this ” Zein said seriously then she left Nadia alone there.

Nadia cried for some reason as if she had just realized that there was a feeling of longing and loss that she could not hide. Since Adira's departure she has really felt that emptiness that is getting more and more felt. But he himself also did not know what made him miss that woman. While all this time he was expecting Adira to leave that house.

Helena looked at Adira who was having dinner while gnashing her forehead thinking.

“ I was thinking you're really pregnant or not? ” confused Helena.

“ Pregnant time check doctor Derril said he was 3 weeks ” replied Adira casually still focus on eating his food.

“ I still can not believe your appetite has no effect at all, Si Tuti aja neighbor side that when pregnant young until can not eat innan nausea aja ”

Adira only retorted by shaking her shoulder, a sign she did not know about it.

“ You really don't feel nauseous at all? ” ask Helena again.

“ Yes Helen I am not nauseous, indeed you want me to be tormented can not eat because of nausea ”

“ Not so I just want to invite you to check again, fearing that the examination was wrong at that time. When you go to the doctor, ask the doctor why you can't be nauseous ”

“ What young pregnant women should be nauseous? ” asked Adira began to hesitate because she did not feel morning sickness at all.

“ Don't know I've never been pregnant ” replied Helen casually.

“ Then why do you feel confident if all pregnant women nausea, basic make worry only ”

“ It is not good if occasionally you are nauseous, for example later I can help buy you sour fruit, or massage your neck when you vomit. It must be fun like feeling new ”

Adira is confused by the thoughts of her best friend.

“ From where do you know such things? ” Adira asks insinuating.

“ From the novel you will know usually if the female lead is pregnant, then vomit the man will definitely run away massaging the woman's nape while holding her hair or buy anything the woman wants ” Helena told me while smiling satisfied to imagine how romantic the scene was.

“ You like cliche stories like that ” Adira said looking at Helena's shy smiling expression.

“ Of course, just imagine if when a woman is pregnant then her husband takes care of the woman very well, even up to

Helena stopped her speech seeing Adira's face change.

“ Sorry yes Dira I like to talk original but think first ” regretted Helena knew that her words earlier must make Adira sad because somehow her best friend was separated from her husband. Let alone take care of knowing her pregnancy only her husband did not.

“ Ahh..it's okay that I may be too sensitive about the topic until...” Adira's lips quiver she immediately wiped the tears that fell on her cheeks.

“ A-I.m missing them.I shouldn't have kept this feeling, but-but I miss Lily..Aidan's...Aidan's..Noah.hikss ” isak Adira, Helena immediately approached her best friend. He hugs Adira and pats Adira on the back to calm her down.

“ You also miss your husband.I know that but take it easy Adira all those feelings will go away over time ” Helena calms Adira down.

“ A-I..hiks..missing them.hiks...hikss...”

“ It's okay to cry because now is still too fast, but after time has passed you don't cry over the past anymore. Today weep as much because the feeling of longing is natural because they have been in your life ”

Adira cried in Helena's arms, as she had tried her hardest to resist all the mixed emotions that were attacking her until she became sensitive about it.
