Just Me!

The Colored Life

''Fire?'' Aulia stepped closer to the two men sitting there who were one of them was her Papi.

''Aulia, come here son.'' Candra stood up from her seat to welcome her only child, whom she missed so much.

Aulia approached, she also felt what the father was feeling. He misses his Papi very much.

I don't know why her attitude was different when her mom came. Aulia opened her heart to the man, her first love. That is the Papi.

''How are you, hmm?'' Candra hugged Aulia so tightly.

So did Aulia. For a long time he missed Papi's embrace. Until he can't answer Papi's questions either.

''Sorry Papi yes, Papi just visited you.'' Candra kissed the girl's forehead and then invited her to sit next to her.

Aulia turned towards another sofa that had a man who had since witnessed the release of longing between her son and his father.

''Steve?''

''Lho! you guys know each other?'' ask Candra who feels weird.

''It's been om. We have met several times, said Steve.

''Lie, Steve is the son of business friend Papi. He also plays an important role in his family's company.''

Aulia looked in amazement at Steve who was very young but very talented.

''Didn't you say you were still in college?''

''Yes, I am still in college, Aulia, '' said Steve.

Aulia nodded her head in understanding.

''Then I say yes, Om, Aulia.''

''Lho is in a hurry, '' said Candra.

''Yes Om, Papa asked me to meet his client. Excuse me.''

Steve left after saying goodbye to the two. And just the two of them stay there. A few moments of silence Samapi when Aulia said something.

''Tempo Mami's day came with the girls, '' said Aulia's plan.

Candra smiled so warmly, rubbing her daughter's head fondly. He could not imagine Aulia's sadness at that moment.

Yeah, he already knows what really happened. And who that girl is, she knows.

''Did your Mami say something?''

Aulia shook her head slowly.

''My mom just said that she would be my brother.''

''So, you understand?'' Aulia nodded her head. His head bowed to hide the tears that almost spilled back but as much as possible he could bear.

''Later this week, you have to join Papi.''

''Where?''

''An event, and this is your Mami's request. Okay?''

''Well Pih.''

The two continued to tell stories in turn because it was the moment they missed each other.

These few days, Aulia felt no longer lonely. The Presence of Candra the Papi. Treating his loneliness.

What aulia's life these few days is more colorful. He was happy because this was what he wanted.

Aulia's happiness was not felt the same by Adel. Precisely Adel was annoyed because lately again ignored by Aulia.

Adel stood with a gloomy look on his face with a streak of anger there. He did not like Aulia who ignored him.

Adel left angry. But before that he said something.

''Just me, Aulia. Just me!''

Aulia looked back, she was like hearing a voice but she saw no one there. Yeah, he totally forgot Adel's day. Because of Papi's presence.

''We'll go buy some presents first, okay?'' candra said as she sipped her coffee.

''He'um…''

The sound of the house bell rang, quickly Bi Ane ran towards the door. A man was standing with a box in his hand.

''Good night Bi…"

"Night, Den."

"Is it Candra?"

"Oh there, Den. Please enter. Let me call Mr. Candraanya.''

''Thank you Bi…''

Bi Ane let the man in and he went ahead of his way. To let you know that a guest is coming looking for his master.

''Sir, sorry. There's Den Candra.'' Bi Ane spoke so politely.

''Oh yes tell me to come here. And make some coffee for her, Bi.''

''Ok sir!''

Not long after, the man who turned out to be Steve came and joined Candra as well as Aulia.

''Night Om, Aulia.''

''Night!'' sahut alongside Aulia and Candra.

Yes these days, Steve is getting closer to Aulia. Even Candra was the one who asked Steve to drive Aulia to school these few days.

''So please come with us. Let's accompany Aulia there,'' Candra proposes.

''Really, you have to come with Steve!'' timpal Aulia approved her Papi's proposal.

''Where?''

''Come on, but Papi said. It's a party event, '' exclaimed Aulia made Candra bowed. He is worried about Aulia tomorrow. Somehow she felt, but she had to ask him.

Candra hopes that her daughter will not be sad because she saw a reality that might make her heart hurt.
