Me Vs Flocking Mommy

Chapter 78. Skip-skirt

"Where's Ella doing today?" ask Albert by phone.

"It's fine, really. Ella can handle everything safely. She's a brave and strong girl" replied a young man.

"So you know who did it?" ask Albert.

"So far only those two names. Don't know if it's behind" said the guy again.

"Goodoo. Keep your eyes on them, Daniel. I'm so grateful to you" Albert said.

"Together, Om," replied Daniel.

"Omm?" Albert was surprised to hear it.

"I should have called him that, right? You are Ella's father. It feels awkward to call my brother or sister like I always do" Daniel said.

"So Ella told you about me? I think he's going to shut up and hide my identity until it's self-disassembled" Albert said in his heart. "Aj, by the way when did Ella tell you about me?" ask Albert to wonder.

"Old old age. Before Om married Ella's mother" Daniel said.

"What's? Ever since then?" albert was surprised.

...🥀🥀🥀...

Meow... Meow...

Ella blinked her eyes. He woke up to the sound of a cat being so loud. "God! What time is it? Even the sun has risen." Ella panic. A ray of sunshine barged in through the slit of the wall of his tiny room board.

"But why did I fall asleep on the floor, huh? Wasn't I in bed last night?" The girl tidied up her scattered books.

"Uh ... I don't want to go to school today. I'm lazy to see friends. They'll ask a lot of questions later." No one knows, if the girl who looks tough, only a girl who can also be hurt and frustrated.

"I was also lazy to meet the mothers in front. What the hell was I yesterday? Very embarrassing. Sometimes truancy is okay, right?" ella muttered to herself.

Yesterday afternoon, when Ella came home from school. Ella took the time to shop. Because the cafe was closed on that day, Ella had a lot of free time to cook. The girl wanted to eat a simple side dish that she made herself.

"Mom, are there eggplants and eggs?" asked Ella at a stall near her house.

"There was. How many?"

"Two only. Five eggs" replied Ella.

After shopping Ella left. But just a few steps, his ears were already hot.

"Hey, that's Ella the flirtatious widow's son, right?" said one of the mothers who shop at the stall

"Yes. Why why?" ask the shop owner

"That's so hard, yeah. His mother remarried equally rich. His son was left behind" she said.

"Yes how? Her name is also a flirty girl. Her late husband used to be handsome, but even sickly because he was not taken care of by his wife," replied the shop owner.

"Yes my. Very kasian. Pinter, he's looking for a man. From housekeeper to hostess. What is the secret?"

"Eh, but her mother often flocked here alone? Why, huh?"

"Geez, I'm still here. But maybe they're gossiping about me and mama" Ella's inner self, who's still not too far from the stall.

"Where do I know," replied the shop owner's mother.

"Don't they like each other too. It's so cute" said the mothers.

"Ah, where is it possible. Ella likes eggplant, really." Denying the shop owner's mother.

"Well, what does that have to do with eggplant?" ask them all.

"Ih, the hell time? Really serem. Mother and child are the same as it turns out," said those who immediately believe in the booty of the shop owner's mother.

"Have you finished gossiping, Mom?" Suddenly Ella came to them.

"God! You haven't come home yet?" the mothers, surprised by Ella's presence.

"Yet. Thanks to the rumors my ears became hot. My feet don't want to go home either. Oh yeah, I recorded the chat, you know. If I mess up again to the police," threatened Ella.

"Well, is it good to be threatening? Your family isn't right, is it?" The mothers, instead of admitting wrong, even more challenging Ella.

"Okay, we'll see. I definitely will not let this slander go," Ella said firmly and loudly.

Drrv! The phone calls shattered Ella's memory. He again realized that he was still on the floor of his room that was cold and scattered.

"Ella, aren't you coming in?" Maira sends a message to Ella, as the boy has yet to appear in class.

"I'm not going in, Mai" Ella replied briefly.

"Why? You sick? Today there's Try Out, you know," asked Maira again.

"Ah, right too. There's a try out," inner Ella. His spirit has not yet appeared.

...🥀🥀🥀...

"What's? Ella didn't go to school today? Why?" ask Albert to Daniel.

"I don't know either, Om. I was looking for her in class, but her friends said she was an alpha. Though today there is a try out from the education office," replied Daniel.

"Is there anyone who bullies Ella at school?" albert asked, still curious. Sia feels Ella didn't go to school because of it.

"Still, Om. Even more spread to other classes" reported Daniel.

"Okay, thank you, Daniel. Next time I'll buy you a meal" Albert said.

"Why, baby?" ask Ghina curiously.

"Ella didn't go to school today. Though today there is a try out of the education office." Albert repeated Daniel's words. "Do you know anything?" ask the man to his wife.

"Ella has nothing to say, no. He was also healthy yesterday. We need to check in immediately at home" Ghina said.

Albert immediately took the keys and took his vehicle to Ghina's house. While Ghina tried to contact Ella, there was no answer.

"Hopefully he's okay" Ghina said anxiously.

"Yes, I hope so," said Daniel.

"Darling, by the way who did you call?" ask Ghina curiously.

"Oh, it's Daniel. The cafe owner Ella works for. She's Ella's schoolmate, too. They are not class. We've known each other since I watched Ella at the cafe" Albert replied.

"But vaguely, why did I hear him call you Om?"

"He knows my relationship with Ella as father and son" Albert replied again while focusing on driving.

"God! So you told him everything?" Ghina.

Albert shook his head. "I'm not the one who told you. But Ella," said Albert.

"Correct? Doesn't Ella want to cover our relationship in front of her friends?" ghina.

"That's what I think too. I think Ella believed in Daniel. So that he could open up like that" Albert said.
