Long River

Telephone

Zack tidied up his sister's blanket. The girl slept with a teddy bear Zack gave her. He just realized his sister had begun to grow up seen from his daily life that began to be quiet and did not like running around again with him. The girl is also more beautiful. Zack bowed and rubbed Lydia's forehead. "Silver is getting more and more pangling just like you Deck," he whispered.

The sound of hp Leka rang. That must be Aska. Leka who was about to fall asleep, raised her cellphone lazily. "Yes, hello."

"Leka, you finally raised your phone as well. Don't you miss coming home?"

What do you call home? I'm not calm living with you. "No."

"Leka, don't be. Don't you miss living with me? I miss living with you."

"No."

"Leka .. don't be. I'm your husband. Instead of you living there like a lackey, I told you this. You stay in your house you're free to do whatever you want. No time limit."

"Then what's the difference with you? After all, outside you call me a maid."

"How long are we gonna be like Leka? You must be home, right?"

"I'm tired of you. I want to think about whether I want to continue this marriage or not."

"Leka, we have a child. Don't leave him without a father, Leka."

"Lho, don't you want to admit it?"

"It's not so Leka, it's not time."

"Once, I want to sleep. It's night." It's night."

"Leka, I love you."

Leka immediately turned off her phone. Piqued. Why was it only now that the man had stated that to her after so long he waited for the sentence to come out of his mouth. It's been a while and he just said it now? Does he just want to make my heart go back to being spoiled? Already, from the beginning he did that to her. Feel at dear, then thrown, feel at dear, then thrown. Time and time again. Staying with him seemed to live with a storm that hit him thousands of times, beating his heart to blood thousands of times and he was tired. His hands are no longer strong enough to hold on when the next storm comes. His shelter this time could at least make him organize his heart and mind. He feels quite guilty to Kenzo and Arya for lying to him with his current status but he is very grateful to both of them for providing him with a place to take shelter for his inner wounds all this time with Aska. At least they think it exists.

After all, he could sleep with his daughter back. He saw that Runi was sleeping soundly beside him. He went back to sleep next to Runi.

This morning was a historic morning. At least for Chris's family. Salwa had finished her breakfast. He walked in the living room.

Zack, Reina and Chris just watched him from the dinner table.

The sound of a motor horn. Salwa takes her bag and runs to Chris and Reina takes the back of their hand and kisses him. "Assalamualaik."

"Waalaikum salam."

Salwa ran out again. "You really want to take me to the office? Our office is going differently."

"Well, he said that love, the sea will cross, the mountain kudaki. Weigh different directions mah gampil, still on land enih." Rojak gave Salwa an extra helmet.

The guards and bodyguards there could not help but smile. Some even cut their mouths so they wouldn't laugh.

"Ah, you're making a stir." Salwa pushed Rojak's helmet to the side.

"Oh, ah, up! Ribet is really a girl. The grotto of mating is also you, ntar malem!"

Some guards couldn't help but laugh. They even laughed wryly at the joking look of the two of them.

"Royeah ah!" Salwa who was sitting behind the man was upset.

"Watch a sodakoh, make people laugh." Rojak runs his bike.

At Kenzo's house, the man had just finished his bath. Of course still with a blushing face in the bath Leka.

"Sister seems to be a bit healthy already, brother?"

"Yes thank God. I am not taking any pain medication today. At least I can do something."

"In the meantime, I'll have breakfast, brother."

"Prepare below only. I want to eat at the dinner table."

"Oh ... so?"

"The company I eat yes, with Runi."

"But ...."

"I need someone to get me some side dishes and rice."

"Ah, yes Brother. Will be prepared." Leka came out with Kenzo's dirty clothes and a water container. The man then went to the closet and picked up his underwear and loose trousers, then he replaced them in the bathroom.

A few minutes later he came down from the 2nd floor. The road is like a normal person.

"So healthy, don't you feel dizzy?" Leka from the dining table. He arranged plates and spoons to help a maid.

"It's okay. Uh, Runi."

The little girl ran towards Kenzo. "Father!"

"In the trailer, baby, Papa can't carry you."

Runi grasped the index finger extended by Kenzo but when standing the man bent down instead. "Oh, is it hard too? Yeah, already. Just look at this." Suddenly Kenzo raised the little girl who made Runi shout in joy, he put Runi on his shoulder and held her until he reached the dining table. He then dropped Runi on the floor.

"Remember(again) ...."

"Eh, can't runi. It still hurts."

"Father!" The little girl said still.

"Let Runi sit in the middle. You're opposite me."

"But he's still a little girl, sitting in a chair is not even visible."

"It's okay, the chair don't get pulled close."

Then they sit down. Leka took the side dishes and rice for Kenzo, then for herself and Runi. Then they eat together.

"Because I don't take any more medicine, you have an empty time until the afternoon. So you can do anything until the afternoon. It's your free time."

"What?"

"Oh, you don't understand English? That's your free time."

"It could be English, slowly. Suddenly confused."

Kenzo laughs. "Listen. It will be long ago too."

"Not knowing, Brother."

"If you want to go out shopping, there is my car ready to take you anywhere. Go to the mall or the market, go ahead."

"really?"

"Yes, you're both Runi. Go ...."

"It's not good to ride in someone else's car."

"So I want company?"

Leka blushed. "No, sister, no."

Kenzo laughed a little. "Well, if I go to the Mall, will you accompany me?"

"Can." Answer Leka timidly.

"Well, already. Near lunch, huh?"

Bell rings. A maid rushed towards the door. Someone comes in, someone you know.

"Dad, eat Well."

"Dad's had breakfast."

"Oh, sorry sir, I accompanied Brother Kenzo to a meal." Leka stands.

"Oh, it's okay, you just sit down." Arya pulls up the chair next to Kenzo.

"What's your trouble now? You are healthy now, right? It's just bathing, isn't it all that matters?"

"Dad!" Kenzo beat his father from the side. Face blushing.

"Lho, why? didn't you?"

"Dad, don't fuck!" Back Kenzo hits out of embarrassment at Leka, but this time Arya dodges and laughs. Leka also laughs to see the fathers of these children look like brothers.

"Tuh, Leka just laughed. You're overreacting."

"Dad ...." Kenzo frowning.

"Yes, yes. That's how I take Daddy's son." Arya looked at Leka. "How's your job? Tiringly?"

"No sir, thank God it's safe to sell on the side of the road."

"Oh, so. Are you interested in cooking again?"

"Eh, why sir? I'm cooking a hobby."

"Oh, same with Mr. Dong. He also enjoys cooking, so he has a restaurant. The plan is that if you're done taking care of my son Kenzo, you'll hire him there."

"Eh, restaurant?"

"Yes, it's not far from here. You can bring Runi to work."

"Oh ...."

"Yes, if you want to continue working with you anyway."

"Yes, sir, I want to. I want to." Now."

"Eh, shouldn't we go to the Mall" Kenzo recalled.

"Oh, there's a plan anyway ..." Arya mocked Leka and Kenzo who look shy. "Yes tomorrow it can be. I picked it up around 10. Introduction to the job first."

"No, tomorrow I'll take Leka there."

"Oh, yes, I have. If someone's been to the shuttle, so the boss doesn't bother."

"Dad ...." Kenzo and Leka's protests are blushing, embarrassed.

The bell rang again. A maid ran back to the door. A long haired beautiful woman came with a big bag. Everyone knows him except Leka.

"Oh, Rara. Whatchur?"

Rara's? Rara who? Is it Kenzo's girlfriend?

"Hey, okay. How's your health now?"

"good. It can come out."

"Ok, will I check?"

"Rara wants breakfast?"

"Oh, already. Oh, there's Mr. Arya." He nodded at Arya then sat down beside Leka.

"This is my nurse." Kenzo introduces Leka to Rara. They both shake hands.

"This is Mom's son?" Rara asked about Runi to Leka. Little girl sitting in a chair alone.

"Oh, yes." Leka gave a final bribe to Runi. The little girl ate it voraciously.

"It's healthy, ma'am, it's not fussy anymore."

"Oh, yes. Thank goodness."

"I'm done. Let's go upstairs."

They're all upstairs. Just as Leka was about to go to the room, Arya called out to her. "Eh, first. The nurse must be there."

"Oh, so. I'm staying in Runi's room for a while." When Leka returned, Kenzo was being examined with a stethoscope by Rara.

This woman is a doctor? How do you call her name? Actually Rara is Kenzo's upperclassman at school. He befriends and has a crush on Kenzo for a long time but Kenzo always rejects him due to Kenzo's desire not to get married. Feeling guilty because of him, Kenzo was exposed to the tragedy of beating by his friends, one of whom has a crush on Rara. That left Kenzo unable to attend school for 10 years due to a concussion, so he was determined to become a doctor just like his mother in order to take care of Kenzo. Two years after Kenzo was declared cured, Rara still came to him once a week to check on Kenzo's health.

"You're so healthy, why don't you find a boyfriend?" Rara mocked him while smiling sweetly.

"There was. It's." Kenzo clasped Leka's wrist.

"Sir ...."
