BEING THE CEO'S MISTRESS

Bonchap 4 - Soccer

From the audience seat Kayra was so tense watching her son who was playing football. Devan, who is now seven years old, is so agile to run and fight for the ball with his opponent on a wide field. Kayra is excited to support Devan, who is captain of her team. Sometimes his eyes glanced at the watch, because Erlangga did not arrive, even though the first round match had run almost twenty minutes.

"Erlangga why haven't you come yet, Kayra?" helen asked who was sitting next to Kanaya, Kayra and Erlangga's four-year-old second child.

"No idea, Ma. I sent you a message that wasn't read at all." Kayra took her phone back to see if her husband had responded to the message she sent.

"It's not even in the thread yet." Kayra sighed, but she tried to think positively and considered her husband was still busy with his work.

"Goollll ...!"

"Vavin ...! Devan ...!"

The squeals and the roar of the crowd suddenly sounded after the occurrence of the goal created by Devan.

"Devan's a bully, Kayra!" Helen soared with joy along with Kanaya.

"Oh, too bad it wasn't recorded, Ma?" Kayra regretted missing the moment her son scored against the opponent for talking about Erlangga.

"Yes, Mama also did not see how the process of the goal?" Helen was equally sorry.

"Ma, where's Papa?" Devan ran closer to the bench after celebrating a goal that left his team one empty ahead of his opponent, the boy asked the whereabouts of Papa.

"Papa's still on the street like him, son." Kayra tries to encourage Devan not to be disappointed because Erlangga has not been seen to give support to her son.

"Sir Devan is great! Yeah ... Gooohll ..." Kanaya still looks euphoric because he saw the brother managed to score a goal against the opponent.

Devan returned to the field because the game will resume after a goal for Mahadika FC team excellence.

Until the time of rest, Erlangga was not also seen in front of them, making Kayra more anxious because of the absence of her husband there. Kayra noticed Devan, who was seen several times turning to the audience bench to determine whether the Papa had arrived or not. Kayra saw disappointment in Devan's face because this match was the final but Erlangga did not come.

The second-half kick-off whistle was sounded by the referee in a sign that the forty-five-minute second-half match was about to begin.

"Darling how many scores? Our team won't?" Finally the person who had been waiting for me came too. Mahadika FC is a football club owned by Erlangga. The man deliberately set up a football club because their first child was very fond of the game of football from childhood. Mahadika FC was founded three years ago to accommodate the hobbies and talents of his children and also children the age of Devan.

"How long has it been, Lang?" Helen looks upset because Erlangga is late.

"Sorry, Ma. There was an accident on the road and I had to help the victim, get the victim to the hospital." Erlangga explained why it was late to the stadium.

Kayra saw blood on her husband's coat. "Oh my God, did you hit anyone?" Kayra was anxious, fearing that her husband was involved in a traffic violation.

"No, Honey. It's not like that. At the time of coming here there was a victim hit and run by a car in front of me, and I took the victim to the hospital and also helped contact his family," Erlangga said, dismissing the alleged violation asked Kayra.

"Thank God it wasn't Mas who hit." Kayra breathed a sigh of relief.

"Gooollllll ...!"

"Son Devan is the one who's bullied, Pa." Kanay, who is focused on watching, tells his father that his brother is the one who scored again.

Instantly Erlangga got off the bench, and ran to the edge of the field to congratulate his son.

"Good job, Devan!" Shouted Erlangga, making the coach and reserve player of the Mahadika FC team also from the opposing team turned his head towards him.

Apparently Devan heard Erlangga's voice until he ran towards the Papa.

"Pa, Devan gol-in two, Pa." Proudly Devan said he had scored two goals at home to make Mahadika FC's team two clear.

"You're great, son. Papa is proud of you." Erlangga bent his legs and hugged his first son then gave a kiss at the top of Devan's head.

"Devan, get back in the field!" Coach Mahadika FC told Devan to return to play because the celebration time is over and the game must continue immediately.

Devan followed what his coach told him, he rejoined his friend on the pitch.

"My son is great, isn't he, sir?!" Erlangga proudly praised Devan in front of Pak Kamal, the coach of Mahadika FC.

"Yes, Mr. Erlangga. He's Man of the Match in this final game." What Erlangga said is in-aamiini by the coach, "If Devan can score one more goal, the title of top scorer will be achieved Devan, sir." continued Pak Kamal.

"Hopefully Devan can add another goal" Erlangga said.

Erlangga eventually remained on the edge of the field joining the coach and reserve players while paying attention and encouraging Devan.

The final was finally capped with a 4-0 win for Mahadika FC. Devan himself finally scored a hat trick and established his position as a top scorer in junior football championships throughout Jakarta.

***

After the match, Erlangga invited all team members including the coach to eat together at a famous restaurant. Erlangga treat all members of the Mahadika FC team and their families who also come to provide support for their children who compete. All the children were happy and ordered their favorite food in the restaurant.

"Grandma is proud of you, Devan, Devan is sure to be a great and famous professional footballer." Helen flattered her first grandchild and considered Devan would later become a reliable footballer of Indonesian pride.

"Devan won't be a football player, Ma. He'll continue to take care of the company." Erlangga brushed off the words spoken by his mother who expected Devan to become a football athlete. He let Devan play football and set up a football club just to channel his son's hobby, but he did not want Devan to become a professional athlete. Because as the first child, of course Erlangga hopes Devan can be the successor to the glory of the company Mahadika Gautama.

Erlangga's words made Kayra immediately turn to the husband. Not infrequently they sometimes argue about this. Despite letting Devan wrestle his hobby of playing ball, in fact Erlangga did not allow his son to become an athlete. It was very troubling for him. At this time Devan is still a child not too understand what his Papa wants, later on when Devan gets bigger, he is afraid that Devan will oppose the wishes of the Papa.
