"Calvin?" Mumbled Jenni, he looked to the right and thought but did not find the figure he was looking for.
"Did Calvin come here himself?" jenni's inner self when not finding Bella in any corner.
He even forgot his goal earlier who wanted to pursue Alex when he saw Calvin was already on his doorstep.
"Aunty, help Calvin." The soft, vibrating voice of Calvin was able to divert Jenni's gaze at the figure in front of him.
"Who are you here with, baby? why don't you push the bell so that aunty opens the door." Jenni asked as she squatted down to equalize Calvin's height regardless of Calvin's words earlier.
"Calvin came here himself aunty, just wanted to squeeze the bell but it turns out Calvin's body can't reach the bell, so Calvin knocked on the door but was not opened from earlier." Calvin said it.
Jenni nearly choked on her own saliva upon hearing Calvin's explanation. Of course the brat was that short as yet unable to squeeze the bell one meter above the floor.
"Oh, so yeah baby. Yeah, we're in first." Jenni leads Calvin's hand into the apartment.
He led Calvin to the sofa in the living room in front of the television he had been watching.
"Calvin hasn't answered aunty's question. Why is Calvin here with whom? where's mommy Calvin?" Bella asked after the two were in the living room and sat on a long sofa that fit 3 people.
"Account ... Calvin's afraid, mommy's gonna be mean to Calvin." Calvin said softly with a trembling voice. His head lowered with both of his tiny hands squeezing the short jeans the boy was wearing.
Jenni gasped at Calvin's words, let alone saw Calvin's expression that looked scared made Jenni sure that what the little boy said was true.
"What did mom Bella do to you, baby?" Jenni asked softly as she grabbed the child's body then stroked gently on the boy's vibrating back.
"The point is the evil mommy aunty, Calvin is afraid of hiks ...," said Calvin who had cried in Jenni's arms.
Jenni felt very sorry to see the small figure who was the child of her husband was crying fear, whether what Bella did to Calvin to make her own child afraid of her mother. The child pretends to be more precise.
"Yes Calvin was calm first, there is no need to be afraid here aunty will take care of Calvin. Will Calvin stay here with Aunty?"
Calvin's head that he had buried in Jenni's chest immediately looked up at the disbelief of the bead eyes of the woman who had the status as his Daddy's wife.
"Aunty seriously?? Wouldn't Calvin be a trouble for aunty and Daddy if Calvin stayed with you?" Calvin asked as if he did not believe Jenni's words but his eyes could not be lied to if he really hoped that what Jenni said was serious.
"Of course, Calvin won't be a hassle at all. Aunty is happy that Calvin wants to stay here and play with aunty." Jenni said as she widened her smile to look at Calvin.
He even forgot the spectacle of the tv series in front of him when he was so tense watching the drama of the husband and wife affair that made him ignore Alex who said goodbye to him.
"Calvin wants aunty, Calvin can play with aunty every day yes! yes!" Calvin enthusiastically developed a smile.
The face that had been gloomy and looked frightened now turned into a face so cheerful, as if there was no burden that he had just felt.
Is it that easy for a child to forget sadness? Jenni murmured in the heart.
"Calvin hasn't answered that aunty question? Calvin's here with whom?" For the third time Jenni asked the same question.
"Calvin here himself aunty." Calvin's great-grandson, looking back, Jenni saw the boy's cheerful face, now back down and Jenni could only breathe out rough.
"Then how did Calvin cross the street?" Jenni asked quickly, her facial look implying deep concern to the boy.
"Calvin can cross alone aunty, just now in the middle of the road there is a car that almost approached Calvin immediately run so as not to get hit." Calvin explained.
"Geez Calvin, that's very dangerous dear. What if when you run down? thank goodness you're okay. Next time do not repeat. Anyway, Aunty wouldn't let Calvin go anywhere if he wasn't accompanied by an adult." Jenni said with great emphasis.
Moreover, the two places are separated opposite the highway, and if you walk then you have to cross the road in the vehicle while when using the vehicle then you have to turn first to turn around because it happens that the road is only one direction while the other direction in the other direction cover by a barrier wall that is only fit for people to pass through but not for vehicles.
"Well aunty, Calvin will follow aunty's advice." Calvin said, obediently.
"Smart kid," Jenni smiled as she ruffled Calvin's hair in a daze.
"Calvin's had breakfast yet?" Ask Jenni to make sure.
Calvin did not reply, his head lowered without giving Jenni an answer.
"Honey, aunty asked ...," said Jenni reminded when he did not find an answer from Calvin.
"Not aunty." Calvin's great-grandson as he raises his head.
Jenni again sighed harshly, she really felt sorry for the child of her husband. I don't know what Bella did to make her son leave the house.
"Yes, Calvin had breakfast first. Aunty's staying here." Jenni persuades Calvin to have breakfast and grabs his hand to move to the dinner table.
The two of them walked to the dining table near the kitchen, after Jenni sat Calvin in a chair, he switched to preparing breakfast for the boy.
Jenni poured milk into a glass and then took two loaves of bread to make a sandwich.
"Calvin, aunty make your sandwiches?" Ask Jenni before making a sandwich.
"You aunty, Calvin wants to try a sandwich made by aunty." Calvin said excitedly.
"Yes, wait a minute yeah ..," said Jenni.
"Okay aunty." Calvin watches Jenni's nimble hand make a sandwich for him.
Before long the sandwich was so, Jenni thrust the plate containing the sandwich and milk that had been prepared in front of Calvin's table.
"You want aunty's bribe, baby?" Somehow the words just slid from Jenni's mouth, he felt that Calvin needed attention.
Even he forgot the status of Calvin who is the son of his husband with other women, not a little Jenni has a hatred on him.
"Did aunty mind?" Jenni's question was answered with a question by the boy.
"Of course not dear." Finally Jenni fed Calvin painstakingly.
Calvin was very happy, so long he wanted to feel noticed by his mommy, but Bella never once was worthy of her mommy like Jenni.
Calvin always wanted Bella to feed him while eating, but he never got it. Bella snapped at him when Calvin was told to eat just silently, but he was very eager to eat in a bribe by his mommy.
