Jordan sat there staring at his daughter playing on the beach. It's very happy but also sad because he might not be able to see his daughter again for a while. Jordan's gaze continued to be directed to where his daughter Ele ran to and fro. Sometimes Jordan looks sad, but she also smiles happily when Ele laughs at finding a clam there. It felt like he was not willing to be away from his daughter who he had just found.
" Dad! " Call Ele while running towards her. The beautiful little girl also stretched out her arms to be welcomed by the father. Of course Jordan greeted him and instantly lifted his body into his carrying.
" What's up, baby? " Tanya Jordan while rubbing Ele's cheeks gently.
" Look at this Dad! I found a starfish. " Ele lifted the tunggi and proudly showed it to her father.
" Well, this is beautiful, baby. " Jordan smiles while holding the starfish found by Ele.
" Yes, Dad. It's very very pretty. " Say Ele with her innocent face.
Jordan continued to watch Ele's pretty face closely. She felt so in love with her daughter from the moment she first met. Starting from the way he looks, smiles, laughs and talks. Ele looks spoiled indeed, but she is also an understanding and jolly child. Jordan smiled then tightly hugged Ele's body while inhaling the fresh aroma that came out of the body of the beautiful princess.
" Ele, I love you so much. "
" I love Dad too. "
" Then, this is for Dad only. " Say Ele after Jordan uncovers the indentation. Ele handed over the medium-sized starfish to Jordan.
" For Dad? " Ele nodded with her lips smiling sweetly.
" Thank you, Princess. " Jordan received the starfish and kept it in his pants pocket.
Ele smiled as she looked at her father who was also smiling looking at her. Although I can't tell you how happy Ele is at the moment to have a father, Jordan can at least feel that her daughter really loves her, just as much as she feels her sadness for Ele.
Ele, I'm sorry, aren't you Dad? after this maybe Dad will be gone for a while. At least until your mom really calms down. I promise I'll see you later.
" Ele, if you leave, will Ele miss you? " Tanya Jordan while rubbing Ele's hair which is now in her lap.
Ele looked up at Jordan and began to look sad.
" Are you going? "
" It seems so, baby. "
" Dad just arrived, why did you want to leave? did I make a mistake? don't you like me? " Tanya Ele with eyes that start to glaze over.
Jordan shook his head quickly so that Ana did not feel her words were right.
" No, sweetheart. It's not. It's just, Dad has to work. Later after Dad finishes work, Dad will come back here and play with you again. " Ele did not answer and started crying. Jordan immediately hugged the child and held him tightly. He was so sorry for saying that.
" Sorry, honey. All right, I'll ask your mother for permission to stay longer. "
Ele began to slowly stop her crying. Jordan smiled and wiped the tears that fell from his two daughters eyes.
" Don't cry anymore, Princess Daddy. Dad's sorry, huh? "
" Ele, you must be so happy because now you know you have a father. But son, I can't if I have to keep seeing your father. Forgive Mother who is still so selfish and afraid of past wounds. Hope you understand, son. "
Gaby sighed while taking her eyes off. His eyes accidentally turned to a photo of himself and Ele together. He smiled and took the picture.
" I hope you'll keep smiling like this, son. You're the reason Mom's alive. You are the source of Mom's happiness and strength. I need nothing but you, my dear Ele. " Gaby put the picture back down and walked into the room. He could only sigh as it turned out that his room was still a mess. Slowly he began to fix his room.
" What is this? " Tanya Gaby who accidentally saw there was a blood stain on her son's pillow. He continued to pay attention to the bloodstains while thinking about where the bloodstains came from.
" It seems like it's new. But my schedule for the month passed about ten days ago, right? after all, can't my menstrual blood be on Ele's pillow? "
Not wanting to think much, Gaby finally prefers not to think too much about it. He brought the sheets and pillowcases and put them in a special basket for dirty clothes.
Jordan and Ele continue to play together. They also chatted so coolly that they did not care about the blazing weather. Seeing her daughter sweating a lot, Jordan finally decided to take her daughter back home.
" Ele, we've got to play it? the weather is so hot, baby. " Ele did have time to scowl disagree, but because of Jordan's persuasion, she finally obeyed Jordan's words.
" Here, Daddy's fat. " Jordan grabbed her daughter's tiny body and directly carried it. Jordan rubbed Ele's body gently exposed to a lot of sand ranging from her legs, hands and lastly was her back. Jordan frowned confused and shocked when he accidentally saw Ele's bruised back. Slowly Jordan took down the clothes that Ele was wearing to make sure what was right that she saw earlier.
" Ele, why is your back bruised? " Tanya Jordan panicked.
" What is a bruise, Dad? " Ele innocently asked because she had not understood all languages.
Jordan looked at Ele's bead and confirmed where the bruise had come from.
" Did anyone hit you on the back? " Ele shook her head.
" Have you fallen and slammed your back? " Ele also nodded.
" Is this sick? " Task Jordan again while touching the bruised back. "
" I'm not sick, Dad. What is bruise? "
" The bruise is a bluish and red scar. Your back has that bruise, baby. "
" I didn't fall, oh, maybe the night I slept, I accidentally hurt my back, Dad. "
Jordan was still staring worriedly.
" But you said it didn't hurt, did you, honey? "
" yes. "
Why is my daughter like this? if you look at the way she talks, Ele really doesn't seem to be lying. But where did a bruise of this size come from? Gaby couldn't hurt Ele either. Then why this?
Seriate...
