"How you doing, champ? Rest if you are very tired. I'll accompany you here."
Jevan touched Darriel's hand. Not just a touch, he held the child's hand. Jevan often comes to this room, to talk to Darriel a lot.
He could not deny, realizing that he had children from Roze Moza so happy his heart. But unfortunately, his feelings have not received a welcome from the three flesh blood, especially their mother who always acts cold. But it's okay, Jevander won't give up.
Jevan is well aware that he really does not deserve to acknowledge or be recognized by them. It was he who had left Roze, making the woman bear the burden alone.
It is not easy for a woman to be left pregnant, without a husband, without support. There must have been a lot of ridicule from others, fear, shame, sadness, and surely all that had made Roze Moza depressed even though now he looks fine.
Imagining all of this makes Jevan cry next to Darriel. Although his crying was not heard, but his tears were able to explain all the distress that existed.

[Daniel! Let's list the extracurriculars. Which one do you choose to go with?] an image was sent by Erwun via WA chat to Daniel, complete with questions.
Daniel looked at the picture while thinking.
[Sheep alone] replied Daniel, according to the exculus he had been interested in since Junior High. For him, Archery fits perfectly with his character.
Daniel continued to walk, arriving at Darriel's nursery. Just peeking out from behind the glass is enough. He just wanted to see if his sister was awake or not.
Waitaminute! Looks like someone's there. Daniel guesses that the man is Jevander Park.
It seems Darriel has regained consciousness.
Daniel opened the door slowly.
"What's our fault? Why did you leave us?" a slow sound forced out. Darriel's question sounds really sad.
"Riel, I never knew when you were pregnant. Had you known it in the first place, I wouldn't have separated from your mother."
Darriel fell silent. His eyes that had opened, closed again. He went back to sleep.
Daniel could clearly hear. Not only him, there was Ezra there.
Jevan stepped up from his seat. He should give the boy enough time to rest, as Roze had said moments ago after Darriel woke up.
.
Roze had just entered his private room after finishing the patient examination.
Bruaks! The door he had just closed a moment ago opened violently.
Roze was shocked and immediately stood up.
"Ezra?"
The look on her daughter's face looks a little scary.
Daniel came up from behind and closed the door.
"Mother, why would you hide about us from me? Dad wouldn't have left us if you were honest about your pregnancy in the first place!"
Dad again, dad again, dad again.
Yes ... Just a moment ago, Ezra overheard Jevander Pak's confession to Darriel.
Roze remained silent. It doesn't seem able to explain it.
"Ezra, have you come to scold your mother?"
"Yes! It's all the fault of mom! I hate you for leaving Mother, but apparently you're the one who purposely hid us from her?"
"Ezra! Stop yelling at mom. Are you crazy?"
"If you had been honest in the first place, you wouldn't have left us. I will not choose anyone else. Nana won't be a victim either." Ezra didn't care about Daniel's warning not to yell at their mother.
"So what do you want, huh? You feel guilty for Jevander Park? Go then! Go cry apologizing to her. Leave mother. Pack all your clothes, get out of the house, go home to your father!" Daniel snaps at Ezra.
"You're silent! Don't you dare challenge me!" Ezra pointed at Daniel's face.
"You are silent! How dare you yell at our mother."
No matter what, Ezra looked back at his mother. "whatever your reason for separation was, you should have kept your father for us." Ezra's voice began to tremble. "i'm very disappointed with your mother's selfishness."
"Mother, just calm down. Brother will realize what he just said."
"Daniel, get out of here." before his tears were completely shed, Roze urged his son to leave.
Instead of leaving, Daniel stepped towards his mother. "Mother, I'm your friend. If it feels unbearable, cry on my shoulder."
Roze stared in both of his son's eyeballs. In an instant, the child's body had already entered his arms. Roze was really crying.
.
.
In her room, Ezra was crying.
"Bundaaaa.. mother once said that you do not want your mother from the beginning. Then why can't I understand it and have the heart to snap at mom like that? I'm sorry, mother ... I'm so disappointed in you." Ezra cried until he fell asleep.
The room was quiet again, no more noise.
.
Daniel came home. Arriving in front of his house, someone got out of the car that had just stopped. An old woman who seems to be Nana's grandmother.
Soon, another car. Similarly, an old woman came out from there. She's none other than her stepmother.
"Daniel," as if making a pact, both called out to the quiet one at the same time.
"Would you go to my granddaughter's house, Nyona Lee?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, they're also my grandchildren. Of course as a caring grandmother, I brought them delicious food." replied his mother's uncle Jungki was kindly.
"Let's go Daniel, let's go in." take the two, again at the same time.
Daniel who had been dumbfounded to pay attention to the interaction of these two grandmothers, swung his steps again. Lazy to argue, what else both of them look old. Daniel only remembered the word 'qualat' if it was to expel them.
Get inside the house. As if he was used to it, the two grandmothers nimbly arranged the dishes on the dining table.
Daniel knocks on Ezra's room. "Ezra ... get out! you're your grandmother's arrival." then she passed to her room, giving the old women the freedom to do as they please.
Hearing the way Daniel told them about their arrival, the two had a few moments to face.
"Madam Lee, let the kids enjoy my cooking first. Just keep yours in the freezer."
"Can't, Mrs Jenni Park. I prepared it with all my heart. Better eat this first."
Instead of arguing a lot, the two decided to serve all of their innate cooking.
Chequek.
The sound of the door opening made the two women turn their heads.
Ezra came out of there with a pillow face but she still looked beautiful like her mother.
"Ezra baby, you just woke up? Come here dear, grandma brought you delicious food." the stepmother still exudes the same smile and hospitality, as before.
Ezra only glanced briefly at his grandmother Nana. To this day, the feeling of shame and guilt is still felt considering his evil deeds against Nana.
"Grandma's brought a friend?" whether there was any wind, Madam Lee almost dissolved in a feeling of being moved when Ezra greeted in a soft tone.
"Oh, yeah... The two of us accidentally met in front of your house.You must be happy, you're your grandmother's second arrival." Mrs Lee didn't waste the chance. He persuaded the teenage girl, giving her a sense of comfort. While Jenni is still stuck in a clumsy parasan do not understand what to do.
Ezra mengangguk. Ia mendekat. Ya ... Tak perlu merasa sungkan karena ini adalah rumahnya. Dua orang ini hanya tamu.
Ezra took his place in the position facing the two old women. Daniel soon followed.
Although this afternoon had snapped at each other with his brother, Daniel looked relaxed as if there was no tension between the two of them.
The atmosphere was silent during the dinner. The food was eaten by the four of them.
"I can cook. Next time there's no need to bring us food."
The atmosphere of silence grew even more after Ezra said and returned to his room.
"I think my brother was right. No need to pay too much attention. We're quite independent and can take care of our own food." Daniel went to his room and did not forget to thank him politely.
