Love Stories Overseas

Chapter 26

Dila awoke from her sleep when a clock patterned wall Doraemon in El's room showed at 2 pm, apparently he had slept for an hour. And El still slept soundly beside her.

" Are you awake?".

The sound of Bu Fatma made Dila immediately change her position that was lying down to sit on the edge of the mattress.

" Yes, it's Madam, uh I mean Ma'am...".

dila's life has not fully gathered, so it is wrong to call.

" Wash your face first and meet me in front".

Dila nodded.

Ms. Fatma came out of El's room to the side porch of the house. After washing her face, Dila approached Ms. Fatma and stood in front of her.

" Just sit down, Dil, sit in that chair".

Dila according to sitting on a rattan chair blocked by a round table with a chair where Ms. Fatma was sitting.

" You may have many questions that you want to ask when you get to this house, because the state of this house is different from the state of the household in general. But all you need to do now is just focus on nurturing El, no need to think about anything else".

" Before work you already know that the salary of care for El is the highest in appeal to be a janitor or a cook here, it's because taking care of El is more tiring than other jobs. It takes extra patience and working time 24 hours full".

" All El's nannies before you, somehow couldn't make El obedient and obedient like you did, whereas when I saw you who were young, I initially doubted if you could take care of her. But it turns out maybe El needs a nanny who can be considered like a friend who is not too old and already mothers. Because the previous caregivers were 30 years old and above, we consider older people who have experience, but it turns out our thinking is wrong".

" Whether you are at home or not living here, but I think you have no other choice, because your age can not work at the PT/factory like your other friends, because your age can not work at the PT, but if you know the salary in the factory is lower than your current salary, so if you can work for 1 year here and you can save 80% of your salary, then that year you can collect about 48 million".

" That money you can use business capital as you have planned so far, even I will gladly increase your capital if it is still lacking".

Dila nodded in understanding, "thank you very much for the generosity of Ms. Fatma, I am very comfortable staying here, if you know, when I arrived in Bekasi, for a week I contracted there, I signed there, sleep only with a mat and a bag. While when I got here, I was given my own room, there were already mattresses, pillows, cabinets, the room was also good, and most importantly it was all free. I'm so grateful for that".

" Not to mention that I am allowed to eat here as much as I want, while time in Bekasi, eat and drink I have to buy, until the allowance of the parents is almost exhausted, while the time in Bekasi, makes me determined to find any job that is important halal". Dila so back to remember the difficult period of living in Bekasi for a week.

" El also turned out to be not as stubborn as I imagined, because initially the one who led me to work here said that El was a wayward child, but in reality El was very good and obedient, but in fact El was very good and obedient, I love him as much as my own sister".

Fatma smiled with relief, "If you knew Dil, it was El before being taken care of by you. He was naughty, angry, and often blurred, also yelling at anyone he did not like, only by his father and by me El would be obedient. But after your arrival, it seems like his attitude has slowly changed to become more submissive".

" That's why I hope you'll be here for that year".

Dila nodded, "of course Ms. Fatma, I will definitely be very at home here, all who live here are very good people".

" Thank God, you think that sometimes Indra is easily angry, he has been the temperament since Kayla lived. I just every talk to him should be careful and think first, not even to mention Kayla" said Fatma.

" Can I know why they got divorced?", said Dila full of questions.

" The story is very long Dil, if made a novel maybe a full book, all started from my story in the past that influenced the relationship between Indra and Kayla. Like a curse...".

" Sister Dila.... ".

Dila who was focused on listening to the story of Ms. Fatma was suddenly shocked to hear the voice of a child who called her name.

" Oh... El dear is awake, ouch.sorry Kak Dila did not know El was awake". Dila immediately carried El so that El would not get angry because he woke up no one was guarding him. " Will El pee?".

El shook his head while leaning on Dila's shoulder. Dila patted El's back slowly.

Though again the exclamations of listening to the story of Ms. Fatma, even El woke up, forced the storytelling session must be stopped. Wait for it to relax at another time.

Dila already almost knew the real reason, but what?, 'curse?', what a terrible thing that Miss Fatma said. His past story. The rich man is usually what's the problem?, what about power struggles, or land grabs, or tender grabs, or what?. Dila's mind can only guess the reason, because indeed Miss Fatma immediately stopped the story when El suddenly appeared.

" El mau mimi milk ", whine El spoiled.

" I'm sorry ma'am, the story is not finished yet, next time can continue the story, I'm sorry to go back first, want to make El milk".

After drinking milk, El invited Dila to play in her room, playing a puzzle that was bought by her grandmother.

El is indeed a smart and easy to understand little boy, playing puzzles with fruit and animals can do just by taking once Dila gives an example.

" See, what is the yellow color of the fruit?",

" Banana" answered El quickly.

" Right baby, who likes to eat bananas is an animal what try El?".

" Monkey!", cried El.

" Did El like bananas?".

El nodded, "El likes bananas, El likes frowns, El likes longs, all El fruit likes, said the father, eating fruit can make El healthy and spun", replied El at length.

Dila chuckled to herself because every time El spoke it looked so funny.

They both played in the room until 4 pm, when his father El came home from work El was laughing when Dila equated El with a monkey because he likes to eat bananas.

" Wah wah... again play what is it?", asked Indra while loosening his tie.

" Ye... Dad came home!", cried El as he approached his father who was sitting on the edge of the mattress and hugged El.

" Said El out of the streets with grandma huh?", Indra glanced at Dila who was still wearing pink clothes, clothes that seemed like Indra had seen, somewhere.

" Yes father, the grandmother took El to time jon, El ride the same train sister Dila, telus El beat the rats, El also sing there", El told me everything he did today.

" Grandma also bought El balu toys, look at the father, Kak Dila who chose toys for El, good father, there are fruit gambals there are also animal gambals. It's El who put together the father's tablets", El shows a new puzzle that his grandmother bought.

" It turns out that dad's son is really cool, so El already wants to go to school?".

El nodded quickly.

It turned out that Indra had been thinking about the answer to Dila's question this morning, who asked her permission to register El to Tutoring.

" Actually dad does not matter if El wants to go to school, which is important El be a good child, can not be naughty with El's friends at school later, El must also be a disciple who obeys his teacher, El understand what you're saying?".

El nodded, "El understands Dad, El wants to be a good boy and not naughty with friends at school, El promises Dad".

" Good. Then I take a shower first, tomorrow El can go with Kak Dila to look at the tutoring place that wants to be El's school" said Indra while moving out of El's room.

" Didn't you go to El's school?", asked El, making Indra stop her steps and look at El.

" Daddy will have to work baby, is not there already brother Dila who sent El to school El tomorrow, so the father of his El tomorrow-tomorrow if the father is not busy huh". Indra is doing a lot of work in her office. There is a new hotel branch opening in the city of X, time to stay soon, but there are some permit applications that have not received ACC from the relevant parties.

So Indra needs to intervene to take care of the licensing that is being proposed. Fortunately El already has a nanny, if not possible Indra will be very overwhelmed with work as CEO at the company and also as a single parent at home.

Hearing Indra's answer, El's face immediately looks disappointed, actually El hopes to register for tutoring along with his father and brother Dila as well.

" El dear..do not go with the father, but tomorrow will go with sister Dila, later sister Dila take a walk around the new school El, there are usually many toys, there are usually many toys, there's a swing, there's a slide, there's a tunnel, El can try it all there tomorrow".

Dila was always able to persuade El, El's disappointed face immediately turned to sparkle. Indra was relieved by Dila's skills that could handle El in any situation.

" Now El baths the same sister Dila yes, later we make a lot of foam, do El want a bubble bath?".

El immediately nodded in excitement. " ye... El wants a bubble bath, bial perfumed".

Dila took El to the bathroom to bathe her.
