At three in the morning, Ivander finished reading Charla's diary. Drowsiness had been attacking his eyes since an hour ago. But the curiosity of her lover's story overcame that drowsiness.
Finally, he re-locked the diary after being satisfied to look at the photos of their parents, which he also had in the apartment.
Little did he begin to be able to conclude, if Mommy Charla ever loved his Daddy. But his Daddy prefers to marry Mommy Yocelyn.
Ivander laid his body beside Charla. By coming into Charla's thick blanket. Seeking warmth from her lover's body.
***
At half-six in the morning, the sound of an alarm made Charla's eyes blink lazily. He squirms about to reach his phone on the nightstand without opening his eyes.
After turning off the alarm, Charla felt that something was twisting her stomach. Lazily Charla immediately opened her eyes and ...
"Aakhs!" charla shouted, gasping in shock at Ivander sleeping beside her. "Sister! what are you doing here?"
Ivander didn't budge, he still seemed to be soundly asleep.
"Sister!" call Charla pat Ivander on the cheek.
"Emm?" ivander answered without opening his eyes.
"Since when have you been here, brother?" ask Charla who is still in shock with Ivander's whereabouts.
"Every night, baby." replied Ivander lazily without opening his eyes. He was still comfortable hugging his lover's body. "Today is a holiday, no need to wake up in the morning! just sleep." said Ivander pulling Charla's body into his arms without opening her eyes.
"But brother, if anyone sees how?" ask Charla.
"Who will see us? I'm still sleepy baby." asked Ivander as he kissed Charla's head under her chin.
"It might be!"
"Only am I the one you gave me the password for this apartment?" Ivander still spoke without opening his eyes.
"Yes, Daddy Charla knows!" charla answered with the pot.
"And Daddy's in London!" answer Ivander casually.
"Who told Daddy in London!" say someone along with the door that is wide open.
Charla's eyes turned to the door of the room. While Ivander was still closing his eyes, immediately opened his eyes wide while loosening his arms that hugged Charla, when he found a very foreign voice in his ears.
"Haaa" Charla opened her mouth wide looking at Darren who was standing firmly in the doorway. Of course one cane one foot in his left hand.
Ivander was aghast and soon got out of Charla's bed. He believes the man is his lover's Daddy.
"When did Daddy come?"
"An hour ago!"
"Daddy, Charla didn't do anything! Charla just found out she's here!" charla was obviously full of fear.
"Little Charla, Daddy came suddenly because he wanted to give you a surprise, but it was Daddy who was surprised!" darren said a little high.
"I'm sorry Uncle! it was my fault. But we really didn't do anything!" ivander said, panicking.
Why is it like this?
Ivander Inner.
"Explain that later, Ivander! your parents are on their way here!" darren.
"What!" squeak Ivander. "Mommy too?" ivander asked more frantically than ever.
"Of course, bad boy!" answer Darren ketus.
"What!" squeak Ivander. "Ouch!" Ivander patted his head.
If with Daddy maybe I can still survive. But what about Mommy?
Aakhs! so stupid of me!
Ivander looked unsettled, he was overwhelmed with uneasiness. Mommy is the creepiest person she thinks. Even though Mommy is a gentle person. But she was very avoidant to make her Mommy disappointed and angry.
"Sit you here!" said Darren in a firm tone, pointing at the living room sofa.
Charla sat with a feeling of anxiety, She just kept her head down without daring to see the expression of her Daddy who was observing the two of them by standing next to the dining table.
Ivander, who was walking behind Charla, sat down beside Charla. If only her Mommy had not been heard coming along, she would have been much more relaxed.
Ivander sat to Charla's left, but she looked more relaxed than Charla. He will be responsible for whatever punishment he will inflict on him as a man who comes to a woman's apartment without her permission.
Ivander rubbed Charla's right shoulder. As if to say, everything will be fine. I will take responsibility for my mistakes.
If Mommy doesn't believe my explanation, doing a visa will save us. We really never did it anyway.
Ivander said in his heart.
Tong!
The doorbell rang. Ivander and Charla turned towards the main door. With a quick movement, Darren immediately opened it.
Cleks!
Devan and Yocelyn stood together. Devan seemed overwhelmed with surprise, because he came back to the apartment after decades.
While Yocelyn's expression was covered in question marks and held back anger at the son.
Then the eyes of the three old men met each other. Because it had been a long time since they had met since the last meeting, when Darren brought Little Charla to the mansion.
Ivander stood up, facing the old men still standing in the doorway.
"When's Mommy's son been like this?" yocelyn asked as she walked on - goopoh approached her son.
"Mom, listen to Ivander's explanation first, Mom!" ivander raised both of his hands towards Mommy.
"What other explanation? it's obvious! feel this!" with anxiety and fury Yocelyn pulled Ivander's ear.
"Aw! auw! Mama! listen to Ivander first dong!" he begged for mercy. "Mom, Ivander only read Charla's book, because Ivander sleeps next to Charla!"
"Whatever the reason, you've come to a girl's apartment in the middle of the night. You broke Mommy's rules!" Yocelyn's hand still pulled Ivander's ear.
"Mom, let go of the child's ear first, it can break later!" devan.
"Damn!" Jocelyn took her hand off from her son's earlobe. "Just yesterday I told you not to do anything - no! morning has been razed!" yocelyn was upset.
"Maom?" ivander lirih.
Immediately Ivander rubbed his reddened ears. And Charla only saw horror in Ivander's ears.
"So how now?" darren asked Devan and Yocelyn. "Before my eyes Lord Devan's son and Lady fucked my daughter! while I was in London. I don't know if they're like this every day?" darren. "She's my daughter's one - her one, Mr and Madam know that. And I'm sure my daughter was a virgin when she left for Oxford!"
"They should get married soon!" concluded Yocelyn with breath up and down. Short decisions without negotiation.
"But our Aunty hasn't turned 20!" charla.
"The age can be set, Little Charla!" yocelyn.
"Mom! Ivander's not finished with his undergraduate yet!"
"Isn't two years over? you only took S1 three years, didn't you?"
"Yes, Mom!" ivander replied. "But 18-year-old married cook anyway?" ask Ivander. "This is a modern mom! there are also many outside without getting married, but there is one roof!"
"Mommy's bloodline can't be like that!"
"Why?"
"Once not always!"
"What if we end up having children?"
