Father to My Son

chapter. 19

the next day, Raka and Renaldi visit Erin in the hospital as Erin cries in her room. Raka looks so happy when she meets her mother and tells her something.

"mother ...mother see, what brother Aldi gave me. my favorite chocolate cake, mother." Raka also saw her mother who was rubbing her eyes.

"mom...mom why are you crying?" asked Raka who seemed to have wanted to cry.

"it's okay Raka. mom was fine, just now, mom's eyes only hurt a little" Erin said as she held her head

"Erin's? are you sure it's okay? why are your eyes so swollen? have you been crying?" ask Renaldi

"you don't have to follow, Renaldi!!" said Erin who immediately stepped on Renaldi's foot

finally everything seemed fine after that, and when Raka saw her mother, she began to feel something was lacking there

"mother! why isn't Dad there next to you? usually I'm there" Raka said as she pointed beside Erin

*dad? doesn't Erin no longer have a husband?* in Renaldi's heart who also looked next to Erin

"ah, no. Dad is no longer there Raka. maybe it's just Raka's imagination" said Erin

"but, Raka's right mom. Raka often sees fathers trying to touch mothers" Raka says

"yes, I believe it, but I'm not here anymore. Raka should know that"

"yes, Raka already knows that."

meanwhile, conditions in the cafe......

"ha...today, customers who come lonely once yes.different when Erin here" said Aldo while wiping the glass

"importantly someone comes here, you don't complain much about Aldo" said the father

"yes-yes...."

"Aldo, you're always complaining when customers are many or few."

and when Renaldi's father lectured him, Aldo accidentally slept there.The father who saw it, immediately kicked the chair that Aldo was sitting on and made him fall.

"don't sleep when there's a customer like this" my dad said

"uh...what did uncle do!? my body could be sore tomorrow" Aldo said, holding his waist.

"this must be because your face is too ugly, so there is little interest here" said the father

"why uncle, even more mocking me huh? oh, yes uncle, I have something to ask you"

"what's that?"

"what, Aldi really likes Erin?"

"uh uh? Aldi, son?"

suddenly Renaldi's father ran up to Aldo and held his shoulder and glared at Aldo

"is that right, Aldo!!? Aldi, my son is trying to get close to Erin!!? really it!!!?"

"i.iya, that's how"

"in that case, I should know this"

"mother?"

"mother!!! our son is close to the lady!!!!!" the father shouted as he pushed Aldo and ran towards the mother to convey something important

"my body added pegel pegel nih.just look, after Aldi from the hospital, I'll tell him to massage my back!!" said Aldo

coming home from the hospital, and when Renaldi had just come inside suddenly Aldo threw his jacket and told Renaldi to massage his back.

"uh...what are you doing anyway.to the point of telling me to massage you?" asked Renaldi while massaging Aldo's back

"your father always mocked me and pushed me out of the chair, so it's like this"

"so it's because of my dad yeah, I'm sorry then"

"iya-iya it's okay.it's commonplace 

for me"

"thank you then"

"oh, there's something I want to ask you"

"what's that?"

"do you really like Erin?"

"uh? what do you mean by question?"

"just relax, I'm just asking. You just say yes and no."

"well, actually I'm also confused by that, but, if Aldo likes Erin for me, it doesn't matter because I won't marry him either"

"hey? why are you so light when you talk like that!?"

"it's okay, I'm just embarrassed to say it"

"embarrassed? that means you still hesitate for that huh!?"

"uh? Q. Not really. Anyway I'm not going to marry her! won't!" said Renaldi who immediately covered Aldo's face with his jacket and went to his room.

"uh...what the hell is he!? just throw in that stinking jacket!" said Aldo who tidied up his things and went home
