Switching for a Moment to Solo City ....
If the family portrait of Satria and Indi is a perfect and happy family portrait like a cypress family. Elsewhere, there is a portrait of a family that is actually separate, but trying to work together to nurture her child. The relationship between a husband and wife can end, but the true relationship of Papa with his son or Mama with his son will never end until forever.
That's what happened to Anthony and Viona's family. The two are divorced, but Anthony still comes to Viona's house and tries to give her affection for Arbella. Just like today, Anthony asked Viona for permission to invite Arbella to play in the kids zone located in one of the Mall in Solo.
"Vio, can I take Arbe to the Kids Zone?" ask Anthony.
Her two-year-old daughter sometimes needs activities outside the home. Therefore, Anthony thought to invite Arbe to play in one of the Mall.
"Ma Mama ...."
Arbe replied by pointing at his mother. It was as if the little girl wanted to say that she wanted her mother to come along too. Anthony silent. Because, all this time Anthony only occasionally play to the house of Viona only, but if you invite a walk never. At most just take Arbe to the nearest minimarket and buy some snacks.
"Arbe is the same Papa well," replied Viona.
When Viona refused, Arbe finally cried by shaking his head. If you could speak clearly, Arbe would have wanted her mother to come too. Honestly, Viona would be awkward to go with Anthony. Because, since the divorce, the communication is only about Arbella. There is no other communication. Although sometimes Anthony tells stories and remembers the past, but Viona does not give much response.
"Kok even cry, will go as Papa is okay," said Viona by stroking the top of her daughter's head.
"Pope ... Mama ... Ma."
Arbe said so with sobbing. Anthony who was originally silent, then glanced at Viona. And then the man spoke.
"Vio, let's go together. For Arbe. I pleaded, " said Anthony.
"The two of you can too, right?" ask Viona.
"Yes, can .., but Arbe wants to go with Mama and her Papa. Sometimes it's okay. We did it for Arbe, our daughter."
Viona answered nothing. However, he weighed in his heart, until finally Viona nodded her head. "All right, I'll change my clothes first."
"Yes, I'll wait."
Viona is honestly reticent, but she tells herself that she left because of Arbe. As a divorced couple, now Co-Parenting like him and Anthony, there must be communication and mutual agreement. In addition, also try professionally that their closeness is only for their children.
Waiting for a few minutes, Anthony finally carried Arbe and brought her into his car. Coincidentally when the three of them came out, there were some neighbors who were outside, and were staring strangely at Anthony and Viona. Understandably, some neighbors also already know that Viona is divorced, so close again to the ex-husband makes the neighbors look at her strangely. However, this closeness is only for Arbella, so that Arbe does not lose the figure of parents, although of course with different portions.
"Come, let it go. We can unite first for Arbe, then go back alone" said Anthony.
Viona nodded her head. He entered Anthony's car and sat in the back. Arbe's car seat is behind Anthony's seat. While driving his car several times Anthony glanced at Viona from the rearview mirror in his car. Communication has both been stuck. Because, it is not easy to communicate back and suddenly familiar with former partners.
Entering the Mall, Anthony invites Arbella to play in the Kidz Zone first. Viona paid for a while to buy some things.
"Thony, I'll take a walk for a while well, I'll be here again" said Viona.
"Yes, Viona. Just relax."
Anthony silently watched for a moment as Viona's back walked away. Sometimes there is regret that comes to the chest. Long ago, he already had a good wife, but it was his dissatisfaction that made Anthony seek pleasure outside the home. Having a wild forbidden relationship with another woman. Sometimes I am disappointed after a loss. Moreover, efforts to refer Viona face a dead end, Viona who is already deterred does not want to return to her ex-husband.
Finally, Anthony invites Arbe to play together. Stringing dolls to play in the play ground they do both. The bigger Arbe is also happy with this kind of activity. Entertainment for children when they can play in the kidz zone. Not infrequently Arbe shouted laugh because he was so happy.
"Seneng yah, Be .. play with Papa?" ask Anthony.
Little Arbe nodded his head. Of course he's happy. Moreover, Arbe did not have much chance and time to play with his Papa. You can only meet and play when your Papa comes, it can be twice a week, or only on weekends. It's not perfect. This is the real evidence of real children who feel the most impact of the separation of both parents.
Moreover, a child as small as Arbe who has not been able to reveal the contents of the heart. He only knew that his father was not home every day. Suppose he wants to bond with his Papa is also very difficult because Mama and Papa live separately.
"Num, Pa ...."
While playing around, Arbella felt thirsty. Anthony was confused what to drink his son. Afraid of being wrong, Anthony calls Viona first, asking Viona to come to them. In just five minutes, Viona is now coming to her ex-husband and daughter.
"Vio, Arbe's thirsty. Request drinks. Bring some milk?" ask Anthony.
Viona nodded her head. "In the Stroller at the bottom of this all the equipment Arbe, Thony. You must not know yah?" tanyakanya.
However, Viona's question made Anthony's heart feel pinched. As Papa, he doesn't know much about his own daughter. Even since Arbe was a baby, Anthony was not much involved in Arbe's upbringing either. All because Anthony spent too much time with Karina first.
"It's clear I'm not a good Papa well, Vi ...."
Anthony said that with a taste of sebak inside his chest. While Viona after making milk for Arbe then looked at her ex-husband.
"You're just not used to it. Naturally," replied Viona.
"Hm, you're just trying to calm down."
"Realita's a divorced couple like this, Thony. We can be together just because of Arbe. Just like you said after that we were alone again. The road is like this" Viona said.
Anthony took a long breath. There's a lot he regrets. However, his regret was already so late. Because, what he wants to achieve, is actually getting away. Reality in plain sight is not in line with wishful thinking.
