Friend Bed

Near the Station

"Devano!" call Delia.

A surprised Devano heard his name being called and then looked towards the voice. However, how shocked he was when he saw Delia who was in front of him.

"Ta-tante Delia? Why is Auntie here?" tanya Devano stammered.

"Oh this is aunt's friend's house."

"W-what? Ja-so Aunt Doctor auntie's friend?"

"Yes, Vallen and Word are our friends. In fact, the Word came from the same village as us. He's our neighbor in the village."

'Asataga, this is truly a disaster! What if that cute and adorable Doctor Auntie says that I already have a wife?' inner Devano.

"Devano... Devano!" call Delia.

"Oh, emh yes. What's the matter, Aunt Delia?"

"Then, what are you doing there? Isn't that Luna's house?"

'Gosh, this isn't just dangerous, but it feels like a sugra apocalypse? God, why did I become like ustadz?' inner Devano is back.

"Devano! Devano! Why are you suddenly silent?"

"Oh that's okay, just imagining the apocalypse of sugra."

"What's? Apocalypse sugra? Didn't I ask why you were at Luna's house? Why do you think you got that far, Devano?"

"Oh that, yeah sorry Auntie. I was a little overthinking. Haha."

"Then, why are you at Luna's?"

"Oh that's because, Luna is my brother. He's my cousin, Auntie."

"Oh, thank goodness you're Luna's brother. Emh Devano, please take good care of Luna. I heard from Vallen that her husband is annoying and irresponsible."

'Oh, my God, it's me, Auntie. Ah it's okay he's making fun of me in front of myself. This means, she doesn't know that Luna's husband is me, Devano's inner self.

"Devano, please don't be an irresponsible man like Luna's husband. Auntie wants, you can take good care of Sachi."

"Y-yes, Aunt. Emh, definitely, definitely it."

"Yes Devano, then the aunt goes into Vallen's house first."

"Yes, please Aunt."

Delia enters Vallen's house with a picture of Sachi as a baby. "This is a picture of Sachi, Vallen."

Vallen then took the photo, then watched it. "In the meantime, I'm asking for help to some of my friends who work at the nearest hospital and health center in the station complex."

"Yes, thank you Vallen."

Vallen then seemed busy fiddling with his phone. It was then that a voice came back from their doorway.

"Good afternoon everyone!"

"Oh Kenzo, Cleo, you guys home yet?"

"Yes Ma, I'm sorry we're a little late because we have to drop Kenzo's secretary who is suddenly ill" Cleo replied.

"Oh it's okay."

"Kenzo, Cleo, long time no see" said Aini.

"Yes Aunty," Cleo and Kenzo replied while greeting Aini, then Dimas and Delia.

"Include them Aunt Delia and Om Dimas, your Papamu neighbors in Jogja."

"Oh so this is Aunt Delia, Papa's ex-wife who fought with Mama?"

"I'm sorry I didn't mean it" Cleo grumbled.

"Basst you, bucket mouth. Kenzo, please buy a sieve in your wife's mouth, so she can make her words sound" said Vallen.

"It's okay, Vallen. Don't be like that, I'm sure Cleo must have unintentionally said that. Is that Cleo, baby?"

"Of course, Aunt Delia. I was not intentionally! Mama is too sensitive" said Cleo, sticking out her tongue.

"Bas with you!" grouse Vallen.

"Cleo, Kenzo, you guys just drove Kenzo's secretary to the hospital? You guys are so nice. There are rarely people like you who always pay attention to their employees" said Aini.

"Emh, uh. It's not like that, Auntie. At first we were giving gifts to the Orphanage children. Coincidentally, Kenzo's secretary lives in the Orphanage. And, that's when Kenzo's secretary suddenly fainted. So, we took him to the hospital first."

"Oh, so it's like that. What, your secretary is sick, Kenzo?"

"He's got a heartache, Auntie. Congenital heart, but fortunately not too severe. So, it doesn't really make much of an impact when she works in the office."

"Oh, thank goodness" replied Aini.

"Indeed, which Orphanage are you visiting, Kenzo?" ask Vallen.

"The Orphanage is near the station, Ma."

Hearing Kenzo's words, Delia was so stunned. "An orphanage near the station? Why have you never thought of me?" delia lirih.

"What's Delia?" dimas asked as he looked at the look on Delia's face that suddenly changed.

"Dimas, Vallen, Aini. Why is this unthinkable to me? Yeah, the orphanage. Why did I never think of this? Just think, maybe when I left Sachi on the train, someone found him and took him to the Orphanage near the station, so the station officials did not know there was a baby left in the train. Couldn't it be like that?"

"Yes, this makes a lot of sense" Vallen said. While Aini and Dimas also seemed to nod their heads.

"Delia, Dimas. How about we go to the Orphanage? Perhaps there was a baby who was taken to the orphanage the same day or after Sachi was lost in the carriage."

"Yes you're right, Vallen. Let's go to the Orphanage!" exciting Dimas.

"Kenzo, Cleo, will you take us to the Orphanage again?" delia's Pinta.

"Of course, we'll take Om and Aunt to the Orphanage."

"Mama's coming too, Kenzo!!! Why did you just mention the three of them?"

"Yes, Yes, Ma" Cleo grumbled.

"Yes Ma, let's go there now!"

They then rushed out of the house to their respective cars.

Meanwhile, Luna who was now standing on the balcony of the room seemed to observe them coming out from inside Vallen's house while frowning.

"What's wrong with them? Why do they seem so rushed? The look on the faces of Aunt Delia and Om Dimas also seemed anxious" said Luna.

He then took a deep breath, and felt pain in his heart. "Why is something suddenly going on in my heart? In fact, it feels like a bad feeling. What exactly happened?" luna.

It was at that moment that suddenly a crack stuck to his body. "Honey" whispered someone in his ear.

"Devano, what the hell is this? Unhand me!" snapped Luna.

"No!"

"Take me off! Please don't ever touch me before you can actually choose!"

Hearing Luna's words, Devano was silent. "You still can't vote, can you, Devano?"
