Mother is Not a Night Woman

I'm Too Evil

Via had just walked out of the room, just after finishing feeding Lyla a breakfast of porridge. The hero was still faithfully waiting in front, since earlier watching Lyla from behind the window.

"Mas ..." call Via, make the reverie disappear. She approached her husband. "Mas not going to the office?"

"I still want to see Lyla. After this, I'm going to the office."

"I'm sorry, Mas. I haven't managed to persuade Lyla, yet" Via said guiltily.

The hero tried to keep smiling even though his heart felt sliced. "Why apologize? I have a lot to apologize for. I hurt you too much" he said, caressing Via's face, which made the young woman's face red.

Since last night, Wira has been very gentle in treating him. Very different from the attitude he received so far.

"Via .. Thank you for keeping Lyla this long. You're a perfect mother."

"But I want to be patient waiting for Lyla, right? Lyla was like that. He's a rather sensitive kid. But as time went on, Lyla could definitely accept Mas Wira."

"I'll wait. Oh yeah, do you need someone to help you take care of Lyla? You must be tired of keeping Lyla alone. I'm gonna hire a nanny for Lyla."

Via shook his head quickly. "It doesn't matter, Mas. I can take care of Lyla myself. After all, Lyla's a little hard to adapt to strangers."

How soft your heart is, Via. I was the one who treated you badly.

"Emc ... Via, can we talk to you for a second?" The hero embraces Via and sits him in a chair. While the hero crouched in front of him.

"What's up, Mom?" ask Via.

The hero grabbed Via's hand and grasped it. "Via, I realize I've committed a grave sin by accusing you of being a no-one. I don't even feel worthy to apologize from you. But, I still hope we can start everything from scratch.we and Lyla will be a real family. Will you give me another chance?"

For a moment Via looked down. She did not know what to answer, although it was certain that she would forgive and accept her husband back.

"Via ..." call Wira when the wife does not answer. He caressed Via's face with gentleness. There was a smile there. "It's okay if you can't answer. I'll wait."

The hero then grabbed a blue box that was in the corner of the chair. "please give this to Lyla. But don't let him know that I gave him. He would have rejected it if he knew this doll from me."

Via nodded back, rubbing the box with teary eyes. He still remembers when Wira was so angry, when Lyla played a doll in the upper room.

Her memory is bright, Lyla used to crave the toy. However, Via's economic situation, which was just an ordinary employee at a boutique, forced him to be patient.

The hero understood what Via was thinking, just by looking at the look on his face. During this time he never cared about the needs of Via and Lyla, so to buy milk only, Via had to sell his phone. The hero finally chose to sit on the chair, and leaned Via on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry, I'm too mean. Let me make amends for all my mistakes" he said followed by a nod of his head by Via.

For a while, the Hero hugged Via. Until Lyla's call came from inside the room.

"Mother .." call her again.

"Yes, Honey. A minute!"

Via rubbed the remains of tears that soaked his face, then grabbed the doll box. "Mas, I'm going inside first."

"Via, wait!" call the Hero stop Via's footsteps. He took his wallet out of his pants pocket, and gave a card to Via. "Use this for you and Lyla."

"I exist, Mas. Yesterday I also gave you a card like this."

The woman nodded, before finally entering the room. He approaches Lyla with a box containing Lyla's dream barbie doll.

"Lyla, you have something for Lyla" she said, hiding the box behind her back.

"Mother bring what?"

"Well guess .. Mommy bring what to Lyla."

"No idea, Mother."

"Look! Mother had bought a doll for Lyla," he said, putting us in Lyla's lap. Lyla's face looked so happy.

"Well, doll plinsyes. Mother buyin for Lyla, huh?"

"Yes, honey."

With a smile, Lyla asked her mother to open the box so she could play it. Although it looks still very weak and pale, but Lyla looks really happy. Even with the Hero, who is now smiling behind a glass window.

"Sorry, Van ... I haven't been to the office for a few days. I went to Bali to see Shera," Wira said shortly after entering the boss's room.

"It's okay, Wir! Bima told me. I was surprised when Bima said that Via's daughter was your son that Shera had thrown away."

"Yes. The problem is now that Lyla is traumatized. He'll be hysterical when he sees me. So I could only approach her while sleeping and watch her from afar."

"I'm so sad."

Although sad, but Wira still trying to dampen his feelings. "What is the agenda today?" tanyakanya.

Ivan glanced at the clock on his wrist, with furrowed brows. "In a few hours we have a meeting with the investors. I'm glad you came. Otherwise, I'll get dizzy myself."

"Bas with you!" gerutu Hero. "Then let's go to the meeting room!"

Two men who had near-perfect good looks also stepped hand in hand towards the meeting room. Along the way, Wira keeps telling her about Lyla as well as Via.

And, upon entering the room, immediately the look on the face of the Wira growled. How not, one of the few people who was in the room was Aldy, someone who made the Hero dark in the eyes and ended up asking for his rights to Via by force.
