"Wahhh the joy of the son of Non Gea is the same as Mr. Briel," said Roinah right in front of the twins. His bead eyes sparkled staring at the twin duo. They both lay in the stroller.
"What's this name?" ask Roinah while pinching lightly on Nino's cheek.

"Ouch... Sick Man!" roinah complained. Arman brushed off Roinah's hand quite loudly.
"Therefore the hands are guarded. It's as if you're holding Aden's cheek." Arman reminded them of their position in the house so as not to be presumptuous to the child of his employer.
Roinah smiled awkwardly. He admitted his treatment was overstepped. He felt bad for Edi and Gea and Briel.
"Sorry sir" said Roinah, nodding respectfully.
Gea and Briel smiled sincerely. And so is Edi. They did not question what Roinah was doing.
"It's okay Bi. Even aunty can do it if she wants to carry them."
Like fresh water, Gea's words relieved his heart.
"Yes, Bi. We are also fellow humans. Cook yes it is different–differentiated. We're the same," added Briel.
"Listen it's Bi" said Edi.
Roinah smiling sheet. Like getting a green light, Roinah immediately wanted to pet them both in turn. But his actions stopped. He stared intently at Arman who first pulled Roinah backwards. Arman is now in front of the twin duo. He did everything he could to make the twin duo laugh. And succeed. The twin duo began to move in motion, responding to Arman's treatment.
"Ihh Man's. You were my juleldin. Now you're the one holding Aden first!" roinah's protest was upset when she saw Arman holding Rio.
"You heard that, Mister and Miss have allowed it. So yes it is."
There was an answer from Arman. Arman moved his lips to poke Roinah. Roinah pouting. He is getting angry with Arman.
"Already Bi. There's still Nino who hasn't been a big Aunt. Just carry Nino. Later you can replace it," suggested Edi.
Roinah smiled awkwardly. Shame that the debate was witnessed by the employer. Arman's infuriating presence makes him forget where he is.
"I–iya Tuan," said Roinah malu–malu. Edi shook his head slowly. He himself was also amazed by the unpredictable behavior of his assistant. But it doesn't matter as long as Roinah's performance is good. That's more than enough. Attitude also in accordance with the criteria of the worker according to him.
While Gea who had been with them, could only smile. He knows that Arman and Roinah often argue unimportant, but he also knows that the two of them are often compact in many ways. Especially in terms of work and gossip.
The first day Gea and her small family stayed at Edi's house was warmly welcomed. Likewise with two baby sitter duo twins. They were also accepted, even their room was shown by Roinah. The presence of the baby sitter duo also adds to the happiness of Roinah because in the end she has friends despite the age of Minah and Dini far below her.
"Oh yeah, Papa go upstairs first. Papa wants to finish Papa's job for a second. You guys rest first. Especially Rio and Nino who are tired when the trip to here," said Edi.
The journey to his home was quite time consuming. Adults may still be ordinary. But it becomes amazing if the one who travels is a baby of a few months.
"Yes, Pa. We went to the room as well" Gea said.
"Want me to help?" bargain Briel before Edi goes to her study.
"No need for Bri. You're already dizzy with your company. Later if Papa already wants to retire, then you take care of everything," said Edi with a little joke but also with seriousness.
Briel nodded in understanding. "Yes, that's it Pa. We say yes. There's a need for Briel's phone" Briel said.
Edi laughing. His waves filled the room.
"God ... It's called reverse. Papa should've told you that." Edi patted firmly on Briel's shoulder with a warm smile.
"You remember, don't you, Gey?"
"Still dong Pa. Papa thinks how long Gea left this house" Gea said with a joke.
Edi smiled wryly. "old. Years– years right?"
Edi's words made Gea speechless. "Good God I misspoke" Gea murmured in her heart.
He unconsciously scraped through the actual past wounds when he thought he should have been hurt himself. But his father was more hurt. Because all that time, Edi brushed aside guilt feelings with anger. The real anger is angry at itself.
"Papa, it's not like that. We have not been to this house long either. Not long, is it? Already Pa. We've started a new chapter. Don't open any more old sheets that will only hurt us. Not only Papa, but also Gea." Briel spoke up when she saw Gea's silence. He also knows if the time of the– that time is a difficult time that greatly torments the inner Gea.
Edi smile. In his heart he was so proud to have a daughter-in-law who turned out to be a dream daughter-in-law. He lightly patted Briel's shoulder back. "Thank you, Bri."
Briel just nodded with a smile.
"Come, honey, we'll take a break" Briel asked. Gea nodded in agreement and then said goodbye to Edi. They walked hand in hand while holding the twin duo. At Edi's house there was no elevator. Therefore they can not bring the stroller to the top. They left the train downstairs.

"Ah good yes if you have twins," said Roinah suddenly on Arman.
"Yes, what else is so cute and handsome." Arman confirmed Roinah's opinion.
Suddenly Roinah's face became sad. Arman, who was once normal, now began to look at Roinah sad, realizing the drastic change in his colleague.
"You why Well?"
Roinah sighed. He stayed silent for a long time until he opened his voice. "I'm not papa. I just remember my son who died. The only– son. If he's a twin, at least I still have one."
Roinah stared at Arman at a glance. He smiled crazily remembering all the memories with his son who was only short.
Arman's heart was. He doesn't know what to do. Indeed, he had never lost a child. But what he knows is that it hurts to lose a child. Missing children who are still alive and living in the village alone stifles, what it feels like to miss children who are different in the world.
Arman patted Roinah's upper arm, trying to strengthen the woman. That was all he did without a word. Any consolation sentence will never be able to resurrect the son of Roinah.
"No need to look at me like that. Doesn't match your face." Roinah tried to melt the atmosphere. He did not want to drag others into his grief. Let him keep it in his heart.
"I just told you, didn't want to take you too," he said later.
"You're a strong woman, well." said Arman.
"has known. Not strong, not working. Not working, not eating. Already bye!"
Roinah realized, even though she lost her child, life would go on. He had to support his mother who was in the village. Her ex-husband had married again when her son was only 1 year old.
"Silent silence turned out to be Roinah .." said Arman who stared at the strong back that actually turned fragile. "Sehat–healthy good people," murmured Arman.
