Kancil Trio

CHAPTER 28

" She was my wife for a long time, though she was not registered. And when I left her she was pregnant !!! ", Alex raised his voice so that everyone there could hear him.

     Everyone who was there was surprised, Cantika was no exception. His hand that was held by Alex squeezed firmly trying to resuscitate the man for what he said in public.

" Oh so even though she already has a husband but still seduce other men, huh ?! ", Assume the condescending laugh.

" The current status is that we have not been husband and wife for a long time !? Because I used to arrive - just leave without saying ", then ", 

" It is only natural that Cantika filed for divorce ! ", Alex answered 

" Easy - hopefully she's a stupid girl, who doesn't understand the law of marriage ", inner Alex.

     Hearing that Anggit was silent, then smiled wryly.

" Yes, then go back. Don't call someone's husband ! ".

     Alex is furious with this girl. If possible, he wants to keep his head. He felt the hand holding the fingers of Cantika, swaying slowly. Alex thinks Cantika wants to end the debate.

" Yes, this is also an effort. Take his heart back. Do'ain in order to unite in a legally and religiously valid marriage, yes ", Alex is trying to contain his anger.

" uh... Be aware that if it is still close - close to Arga, I will not stay silent", Anggit threatened first before leaving the cafe.

     Now Cantika is in a room that is in his office. She laid her body on the bed she used to wear - her children slept there while waiting for her to work.

     Cantika shed her tears in silence. She did not realize that her three children were standing next to the bed. Cantika's position was turned back on them.

" Ma..", a voice of Space softly greeted his ears.

" Mama why are you crying ? " The sky was lying down and hugging Cantika from behind.

" Is it because of that bad woman, Mama cried ? ", the stars also went up to the bed.

     The star crawled and laid its body face to face with its mother. Then her little fingers wiped the tears that kept coming out of her eyes.

    Cantika felt more pain when she saw the face of her son. She hugged all her children and kissed her forehead full of affection.

" I'm sorry Mama.", though....",

" I'm sorry Mama, baby ", 

     Cantika continued to apologize to her children for lying to them about their birth and about their Papa.

" Mama doesn't have to apologize. Because Mama is not wrong ", Angkasa wiped the tears that flowed on her smooth and soft cheeks.

" Because of Mama's fault, she's insulting you. Though you are innocent ", Cantika looks at the faces of her children one by one.

" I'm sorry Mama, because you were born from Mama's womb" Cantika felt herself to be a despicable woman.

" We cannot choose our parents when we are born. Since it was an irreversible destiny ", said Cantika still shed her tears.

" We're happy that Mama is our Mama. Not another ", while wiping away her Mama's tears, Angkasa expressed her feelings, and was taken in by her two brothers.

" Will Mom and Dad be together if the DNA test results are positive" this time the stars are talking.

" Yes, Ma. We can be a complete family. There's Mama, Papa, keep the three of us ", Sky approves the words Space.

" Married is not as easy as imagined, dear ", Cantika looked at the face of her son sad, this time no more tears fell.

" Is it because Mama still loves Om Arga ? ", the star was full of probes as it looked at his mother's face.

    Cantika just silently heard the words of the Star. It was true that his heart was still attached to that kind and loving man. But at the moment he is worried, will he wait as Arga wants, or remove his feelings for her.

      There was a knock on the door of his room. When it opened there Alex stood there and brought a tray of food and a pot of warm tea water and a can of soda.

" I brought you some food" Alex smiled as he held up the tray in his hand

" What is Pah ? " tanya the star approached her parents.

" Milk pudding... To change the mood of my Queen who is again bad mood ? " Alex blinked one eye at Cantika.

" We also want Pah!!", pinta his three children were compact.

" Yes this Papa makes quite a lot, for you too ", Alex said as he walked towards the sofa, and placed the food on the table.

     They all ate voraciously, until the pudding ran out for just a few minutes. It turns out that eating sweet - sweet makes the mood better.

" Well, if our DNA test results are positive. Are Mom and Dad getting married ?" Arga asked and looked at her Papa's face.

     Alex was quite surprised to hear a question from one of his sons. Then Alex turned his eyes to Cantika. But Cantika lowered her head.

" If Papa sich wants to. But did your mother want to ? ", Alex smiled mischievously.

" Mom.... Mamma... Do you want to marry Papa too ?" The sky sitting beside Cantika shook her mother's arm.

     Cantika is confused as to what to answer. One side he does not want to see his children sad because they expect the figure of his Papa to be together. On the other hand he doubts who Alex really is. Because Cantika doesn't know what about Alex. All he knew was that Alex was an American man who had lived in Indonesia for a long time, so his Indonesian language was so fluent. And he has a brother he calls Grandpa Willi. The fact that Alex is Fatih's cousin, Cantika doesn't know yet.

" Darling that Papa and Mama are destined to mate. Then we'll be together ", that's the answer Cantika chose.

     Hearing that answer, her three children were sad. Seeing the children Alex could not bear. So he decided on an impromptu plan.

" Cantika, I want to talk to you seriously in front of our children", Alex said to Cantika. 

" I'm proposing to you . Will you be my wife ? Who is always by my side until death do you part ? ", Alex said really.

     Cantika saw the seriousness that emanated in Alex's eyes. And his look was full of love. Cantika then just lowered her head. He thought what answer would he give.

" Ma, we're happy to be together ", Angkasa holds Cantika's hand. Followed by the Sky and the Stars.

" The sky wants Mama and Papa to be together and not parting anymore" the eyes of Heaven radiate expectantly.

" Mama's dear star, also Papa's affection", The star drew Alex's hand and united her with Cantika's.

When he saw the faces of his innocent children. Cantika seemed to get strength from his children. Cantika steadied her decision.
