LOVE HER COUSIN MY DECEASED HUSBAND
Letter of Permission From Papa
Sakya and Aldo are back, the sound of basketball is reflected by Aldo in the style of dribbling. After playing basketball on a residential compound, Sakya sees Devis on the porch with his mom and Dad Aldo.
" Uncle Dev." Sapa Sakya's.
" That's my son." Bimo told Devis.
The two children immediately approached them.
" Papa has come."
" Yes son, we're home now!"
" Ok."
" Lina we go home first."
" Yes Mr. Bimo." Lina nodded.
" Our Devise sir is going home first."
" Yes Mr. Bimo."
Lina instantly approached at the side of Devise who was already standing, her second glance looking at Bimo and her son stepping up at the car.
" Dev, you came not to tell me."
" I'd deliberately want to give you a surprise."
" Aren't you jealous of Sakya's friend's father?"
" No dear, he's a polite man in my opinion."
Lina smiled her hands directly embracing Devis's arms.
" Sakya's friend has played in this house several times, has often stayed here when his father is out of town."
" Bimo's been to this house a lot?"
" Maybe 2 or 3 times, the rest he picked up his son just waiting in the car. alone."
" What are you cooking?, I'm hungry, baby."
Lina looked at Devis then kissed Devise's cheek.
" I'll get you ready for dinner first."
Devis held Lina's hand inside. Lina immediately struggled in the kitchen helping Buk Jum who was cooking for their dinner.
At the table their dinner seemed calm, Devis occupied the chair that Adrie was used to sitting in. Since Adrie's departure the chair has always been empty. Buk Jum watched Lina and Devis with Lina's son having dinner at the table from the kitchen, Her heart felt good Her employer had obtained a replacement candidate for Mr. Adrie. Buk Jum thinks it is better to get a candidate who is still a strong brother of the late Mr. Adrie, he said, rather than getting a replacement for the late Mr. Adrie, only others are not necessarily good and do not know the ins and outs of him.
After dinner, Devis played with Lina's children in the tv room. Lina picked up her ledger to check the financial statements of her grocery store. Devis doesn't want to bother Lina, but the attention of Devis Lina looks beautiful with her clear glasses Lina looks very serious staring at her ledger and her fingers are shrewd pressing the numbers on the calculator without looking.
" We don't bother you, your mama's serious!"
Aldeen and Aileen immediately turned to their mama, and laughed softly.
" Uncle Dev."
Aileen called out to Devise her eyes still staring at Lina.
" Uncle Dev's..Uncle."
" Eugh?" devis's eyes turned on Aileen.
" What's up Aileen?"
" Uncle love my Mama?" he said whispering
" Of course Uncle loves your Mama."
" Uncle is getting married to my mom?"
Devis chuckled and his face was tomato red.
" Uncle will marry your Mama, do you agree that Uncle will marry your Mama?"
" Euumm..how ya?" aileen replied with her index finger on her chin her eyeballs up.
" Did Uncle have permission on my Papa?"
" It doesn't seem like Aileen yet."
" Danger Uncle.if Uncle has no license from my Papa."
Devis laughed at Aileen's words.
" Why danger?"
" Papa's gonna haunt Uncle Dev ." He put on a serious face.
Devis laughs but to Lina's attention, Lina sees both her children and Devis smiling at Aileen and Aldeen's closeness with Devis.
" Okay Uncle will ask your Papa for permission, tomorrow Uncle will come to your Papa's tomb."
Lina stopped her report work for a while she wanted to change her favorite tanktop shirt and hotpants jeans. She felt uncomfortable in her long skirt when she was wearing it while talking to her father Aldo this afternoon. Then he sat down and started working on the bookkeeping report at the dinner table.
