Look at me, Delilah

Nayaka does not go straight home from work, but has to shop again to the supermarket. Last afternoon, Kyomi told me she wanted to eat fish. She did not have time to go to the traditional market, but Nayaka wanted Kyomi to taste various types of fish meat besides salmon and tuna.


"Buy ice cream too. Yesterday Kyomi had not had time to eat it," muttered Nayaka.


Some of the ice cream cups he bought as a new refrigerator filler at the rental house. The requirement of staple materials for two weeks is completed purchased. Nayaka paid in cash after he went home without realizing the white car was scouting him.


Arriving at the rental house, Nayaka greeted Kyomi as well as Angel. Like a wife, Angel helps Nayaka pick up groceries on a motorcycle.


"It's like eating big, here" said Angel.


Nayaka laughs. "Make preparations for the next two weeks. You'll go home first. We eat together."


Angel nodded. "Okay, I'll help you."


Nayaka came in and closed the door. Kyomi is after the ice cream that her father bought. From yesterday he wanted to enjoy the sweet snack, but Nayaka only had time to buy it now.


"Kyomi has a shower?" ask Nayaka.


The boy nodded. "It."


"So Kyomi learned nothing?"


"Kyomi teaches Aunt Angel French."


From the kitchen, Angel laughed at her. Indeed he asked to be taught a light conversation by the beautiful child Nayaka.


"Continue?" nayaka's fishing rod wants her son to tell her a story.


"Angel's aunt learns fast. She can talk even if she's not as good as Kyomi."


Nayaka laughs. "Kyomi has no opponent."


"Kyomi, right, is a smart kid," he said proud of himself.


Nayaka changed her clothes first after that following Angel to the kitchen who had started weeding groceries.


"You know someone who can help you at home?" ask Nayaka.


"Try asking in the area. Who knows, there are" said Angel.


"I asked Mr. RT here when reporting, but it seems there is no. It's only until the afternoon to take care of Kyomi. I, in fact, do not want to use the services of a domestic assistant, but also afraid to leave him alone," said Nayaka.


"After teaching school, I can take care of him" Angel said.


"Ngerepotin later."


"Until you find a housekeeper. I don't feel bothered, really. I like Kyomi" said Angel.


"Thank you, Angel," said Nayaka smiling.


Angel blushed in shame. "No problem, I can, so I help."


The two throw smiles at each other. Cooking together, joking and laughing like a couple in the middle of the current kasmaran. Kyomi peeks at the two, and secretly records the activities of her father and friend.


Food is ready, Nayaka calls Kyomi to join. Kyomi is confused by a vegetable that by its eyes looks like a grass plant. However, Nayaka and Angel ate it with sambal.


"Why does Papa eat grass?" ask Kyomi.


Nayaka chokes on rice. He coughed, and soon Angel gave him water. One glass was shaken. Angel laughs amusedly at Kyomi's babbling.


"It's not grass, it's kale. The form is different, Kyomi," replied Nayaka.


"Papa never bought it while we lived in Paris."


Nayaka had never seen kale in Paris. While there he only bought vegetables that were sold by the citizens of Paris, and as far as Nayaka in some countries including America, kale is forbidden to be eaten because it is considered weed.


Angel came out after dinner. Unfortunately Nayaka can't drive because Kyomi will be alone first thing night. Nayaka can only book her an online taxi to take Angel home.


"Next time I will drive you," Nayaka said, opening the back door of the car and letting Angel in.


"It doesn't need to be like that. I understand your situation. I'll be here again tomorrow afternoon" said Angel.


Nayaka nodded. "Yes, be careful on the road, Angel."


"Kyomi, auntie came home first" said Angel as she waved her hand with a long-distance kiss from the little girl.


Nayaka and Kyomi just broke into the house after the car walked away from her sight.


"Kyomi just went to sleep," he said.


"Grub your teeth first" Nayaka said.


Kyomi reluctantly obeys his father's orders. Rubbing his teeth after that go to sleep. Nayaka is looking for a job at another company. Whatever it was that was important he was able to get out of Delilah's office.


The knocking of the door sounded. Nayaka frowned because there was no way Angel could come back, and for the neighbors around also it felt impossible to visit. He lives in a housing that most of his citizens do not know much about other people especially Nayaka just moved.


Nayaka got up from her seat, she peeked first from behind the curtain. He was surprised to find a woman who was known outside and inside. Delilah was at the door of his house.


"I'll stay here if you don't open the door for me" Delilah said.


Nayaka turned the key, then opened the door. Delilah just barged in and replaced Nayaka to close the wooden door again.


"I don't want to fight. Kyomi is sleeping at the moment. Go home, Delilah" said Nayaka.


"You're with that girl?"


"What do you mean?"


"I know that woman. You take her to your house and you spend time together. Kyomi is also close to him. Say, Sis. What do you have in common with that woman?" delilah asked who had been stalking Nayaka earlier.


"Go, Delilah. You can wake my daughter up" said Nayaka, who held back her tone.


"No! I'll tell you who I really am. Her mother. I gave birth to her."


"And you left him as a child" continued Nayaka. "Get out of here before I drag you."


"Because of that woman, right? Her name is Angel and she's the woman you consider a friend. I hated him before. Why are you still close to him?"


"It's none of your business!" Nayaka. "I have the right to decide who the woman I can be close to. What are you doing? You'd better meet your lover" said Nayaka.


"You said you'd always be there for me. I am yours. You're mine!" delilah.


Nayaka shook his head after hearing Delilah's words. "I'm yours?" Nayaka laughs. Not thinking out. "You think of me as an item? Think of it that way. You've thrown away that stuff and this stuff .. have found a new owner."


"That's not what I mean," said Delilah.


"So, what do you mean?" challenge Nayaka.


This was also a question in Delilah's mind. He had already left the man, but still wanted his presence. Years ago Delilah refrained from meeting Nayaka, when it was easy for her to appear before her ex-lover.


The desire to have it was so strong, but Delilah got in the way by thinking that Nayaka did not deserve it. They're so different. The neighborhood will not be able to accept Nayaka who is considered as the poor who is lucky to get rich women. Delilah doesn't want Nayaka to be bullied like that.
