CLBK (Long Love Hasn't Been Long)

Courting

Tristan saw the date of the video. Tristan surprised. "His video was made seven days before the accident. Oh Allah... You are the Almighty... Means sister Krishna already has a hunch." Inner Tristan.

"Uncle..." Call Caca. "Kok Uncle daydreaming?" Ask Caca.

"Huh? Uh no Honey. Uncle's looking at the date of the video that Caca's dad made." Show Tristan.

"Why Uncle?" Caca was confused.

"Daddy Caca made this video the day before you're gonna fly to Country C. Seven days before Caca's father died." Tristan.

Caca seems to think. "Yes Uncle. Caca remember, at that time Dad looked what did you say?" Caca seems to think.

"What?" Ask Tristan.

"Dad.... That's Uncle, Dad seduced Mom keeps... Mom's got a pout but Mom's cheeks are red." Caca forgot his language.

"Genit? Ganjen?" Ask Tristan.

"Not... Mother said, Ayang flirtatious iihhh like people again...." Caca could not continue speaking. "Ber... ber.... what is it?"

"Pubbers?" Ask Tristan.

"Well..that's Uncle... What was that?" Ask Caca.

"Pubbers." Tristan.

"Puber what is Uncle?" Ask Caca curiously.

"Waduuha... How did you do it, Dad?" Inner Tristan.

"Iihhh Uncle is silent?" Caca crossed her arms while pursing her lips.

"The puber is almost as flirtatious, or odd....Yeah like that." Finally Tristan gave an answer. Either right or wrong.

"Ah Kak Lita, if you say the same Kak Krisna do not see the situation..." Inner Tristan while scratching his nape that does not itch.

"Would Mom and Dad talk like that in front of Caca?" Ask Tristan.

Caca nodded. "Sir Uncle, Caca is bobo, but Caca woke up to Mom's nyari, Caca see Daddy and Mom are dating again...." Caca covered his face.

"Kok Caca knows that Mom and Dad are dating? Who taught you?" Ask Tristan.

"Angina Afifah..." Said Caca. "Said Aunt Afifah, Caca can't bother Dad with Mom again dating." Clear Caca.

"Indeed Aunty Afifah see Daddy and Mom dating?" Tristan asked, She was furious that Afifa was teaching Caca that was not appropriate for her age.

Caca nodded. "That time Caca asked to get off at the clinic. Keep Aunt Afifah open the workspace Mom. But Aunt Afifah said Caca can't come in, he said Dad and Mom are dating again." Clear Caca.

"Yes Allah... Afifa!" Dengus.

"Caca did see Dad and Mom again what? Ask Tristan.

"Dad sat like Uncle, and mom sat like this. Caca mimicked Lita's position when held by Krishna. "Keep Daddy's lips together Mother's lips." Clear Caca. "Keep Caca won't call Mom, Caca won't bother Mom and Dad."

"Why Uncle? Can't Dad, Mom and Dad date? What's the date?" Ask Caca.

"Father and Mom can date, honey. Because Mom and Dad are married. The boyfriend, I love you Mom, I love you too." Tristan.

"So Uncle's dating Caca now?" Ask Caca.

"Haha.... Does Caca want to be Uncle's girlfriend?" Tristan kissed Caca's cheeks gaunty.

"Can Caca still be a child marry Uncle?" Caca's cheeks are blushing.

"Geez, my nephew is critical." Inner Tristan. "Caca can't be dating... Caca promised me I'd take care of Caca's mom. Caca promised to be a good daughter to Mom." Tristan.

"Yes Uncle.... Caca's my mom's boyfriend." Caca is funny.

"Haha.... You're so funny..." Tristan pinched Caca's cheek.

"What's this?" Suddenly Lita was already standing at the door of the study room. "Greetings mom no one answered."

"Yumuuuu....!!" Caca immediately descended from Tristan's lap and hugged Lita. "Caca misses Mom. I'm Caca's girlfriend."

Lita surprised. He stared hard at Tristan.

"Don't blame Tristan, brother. But blame Brother, Sister Krishna is also Brother Afifah." Said Tristan scratching his non-itchy nape.

Caca recounts the incident at the Singapore Clinic. Tristan. His hand rubbed his forehead while shaking his head.

Lita was embarrassed by Caca's explanation. Lita hugged Caca's body. "Mother love Daddy." Lita shed tears.

Tristan hurriedly turned off Krisna's laptop and closed it.

"Mom can't cry, I'll be sad." Caca said while wiping Lita's tears.

"Dear One... I'm not gonna make you sad." Lita hugged Caca's body.

"What about the interview, brother?" Ask Tristan.

"Alhamdulilla... Brother accepted, from tomorrow Brother has started the task." Said Lita looking happy.

"Then, who's Caca?" Ask Tristan.

"Oh yeah... You will go to college in the morning until noon, Brother asked for a policy with the Hospital, so Brother duty in the afternoon until early morning." Said Lita.

"But Brother, the danger of coming home in the morning. We don't know how security is in this country." Tristan looks worried.

"It just so happens that the Hospital provides transportation to take employees home at night until early morning." Said Lita.

"Alhamdulilla.... Then." Then." Tristan was relieved.

"Why is Dad's laptop here?" Ask Lita.

"Oh that's Sis, Caca was playing a puzzle game." Tristan is lying.

Tristan hurriedly carried Caca. "Honey, he said he wanted to buy ice cream if he had successfully completed the puzzle." Tristan. "Let me rest first yeah."

"Yeee... Uncle kept his word..." Caca looks happy. "Mom, Caca went down first and Uncle." Caca kissed Lita's cheek.

"Yes dear..." Lita smiles.

Inside the Elevator

"Uncle did you lie to me?" Asked Caca who wanted to be angry with Tristan from earlier.

"Sorry Honey... If Uncle doesn't lie, then I'll know that Caca's father made a video, and I'm crying again, how?" Ask Tristan.

"Oh yes... Uncle is smart..." Caca held up his thumb.

"Whose uncle was it, dong?" Ask Tristan.

"Caca dong's uncle..." Caca was proud.

"Eh but Caca promise well... Don't tell me about Caca's Dad's video. Caca also don't tell me that we're going to find Doctor Leo." Pinta Tristan's.

"Why Uncle? Caca can't lie said Dad." Caca was confused.

"Yes Uncle knows, but for this time Caca has to play a secret with Mom. If until Mother Caca finds out, we're looking for Doctor Leo, I'm sure to be angry with Uncle. Keep asking Caca's father to return Mom to Doctor Leo, it'll fall apart. Because I'll definitely refuse." Tristan.

"Why did you refuse, Uncle? Dad said, I love Doctor Leo." Caca was confused.

"That used to be a pity, before Mom became Caca's mother. Now Mom's love still belongs to Caca's father." Tristan.

"Read gets scared, Uncle." Said Caca.

"Fear what?" Ask Tristan.

"Later I'm angry with Caca, and I don't love Caca anymore..." Caca looks sad.

"You take it easy, you're Mom's favorite, I won't be mad at Caca. Caca just follow what Uncle said yes.... For now don't tell Mom about Dad's video. Caca knows, right?" Ask Tristan.

Caca nodded. "Understanding Uncle."

Tristan kissed Caca's cheek with anxiety.

The people in the elevator smile at Caca and Tristan's behavior, even though they don't understand Tristan and Caca.

A woman had also pinched Caca's cheek which made Caca hide her face to Tristan's neck.

Caca doesn't speak English. But Caca and Tristan always speak Indonesian when they are talking in private that others should not know. From childhood Lita and Krisna had taught Caca English, because of the residence of the majority of Foreign-speaking People.
