Mother is Not a Night Woman

What's the Lack of Hero for You?

If Shera was lamenting his deep regret, then Via was in a big dilemma. Sitting on the lip of the bed, the woman wiped her tears. Given Shera's request which for him has gone too far. Agreeing to become a Lyla donor, but demanding a tough condition.

He glanced at Lyla who was in the corner of the room, who was now playing with some of her favorite dolls. In his heart he asked why Lyla was not born from her womb. Why should it be from a mother like Shera.

A gentle pat landed on the shoulder, which finally broke the woman's daydream.

"Darling ..." The hero sat by his side. The man's hand stretched out to remove the clear liquid that soaked his wife's face, with a smile that is now always visible on his handsome face.

"Mas, am I being selfish if I refuse Sister Shera's request?" she says, "I know she's Lyla's real mother. And I have no right to keep him away. But I raised Lyla. She knew what Lyla was about besides giving birth to her."

The hero shook his head slowly. "No, dear .. You have the right to object. Because Lyla's your son."

"He wants Mas Wira back as a condition to become a Lyla donor. Will Mas Wira fulfill his wish?" Doubtfully Via asked. However, as a wife, she still has a fear if Wira or her father-in-law will obey Shera's wishes.

Hearing the question, Wira immediately embraced Via and leaned on his shoulder. He kissed the woman's crown with love. "will not. It's okay if Shera doesn't want to be Lyla's donor. Don't we still have another way?"

Via raised her head, looking at her husband. "another way?"

"Yes. There's another way. Doctor Willy once said, there are many ways to go. It could be through Lyla's sister's placenta."

"Placenta?" asked Via with furrowed brows. However, her troubled mind made her misinterpret her husband's words, so her tears fell back. "What does it mean that Mas Wira has to have another child with Sister Shera, so?"

The widowed hero could not believe hearing Via's words that made no sense to him. She might want to go back to Shera after everything that happened. Wira also chuckles slowly realizing the innocence of the wife.

"Not with Shera, Honey ... But with you!"

"Me?"

The hand of the hero is again coiled in the body of the wife. He glanced at Lyla who was not too far away from them, as if to make sure that the little girl did not hear their conversation. "Yes, you! We could have another kid, right?"

"But Evan told me it would be stronger if the donor was a sibling?"

The hero turns the eyeballs a sign of annoyance, when hearing the name of the person who last night made him burn with jealous fire.

"Who is Evan?" gerutu Hero. "Darling, we can't lose hope. Hopefully, our son can be a Lyla donor."

Wiping tears, Via then looked into the eyes of the Hero. "Mas Wira sure you want to try it?"

"Why not? So starting tonight, you should be able to persuade Lyla to go to sleep on her own. So we can be more active in trying to make a sister for him," said Wira with a mysterious grin, which eventually made Via's face red.

Remembering the hot activities last night that made him have to stay up until almost morning, because the hero is like a hungry lion. Give a pause of a few hours, but attack again blindly. Even with Via who replied beautifully, and finally made his strength drained.

Unwittingly by Via, that the request of the Hero to teach Lyla to get used to sleeping on her own is just a camouflage. In fact, the man was addicted to the service of Via which for him was very exciting.

The hero glanced at the clock on his wrist. The time had already shown at nine in the morning, which meant he was already late for the office.

"Darling, I have to go to the office. I don't want to be fired because it's too late" he said with a small laugh afterwards. He again glanced at Lyla who was still fun playing with a backward position. Soon he steals a brief kiss on the lips, making Via flutter push him away.

"Mas, there's Lyla here!"

"Why indeed? He didn't see either."

"If he sees, he'll complain to you. That would be embarrassing." Via rubbed his reddened face.

"Yes, yes ...."

With their hands around Via's waist, they climbed the steps one by one. Like a good wife, Via takes her husband to the door. She kissed the back of her husband's hand, then replied Wira with a kiss of love on the forehead.

Without them noticing, Shera who was still in the house noticed them from earlier. The woman also remembered the past, when she was still a wife of the Hero. Even he had never treated the Hero like Via was treating him now.

Never mind kissing the back of the hand of the Hero when going to work, Shera who is lazy, even still asleep when the Hero has left for the office. Looking at all that, the deeper his regret became.

Why didn't I do that? Now Via has taken everything from me. The hero, Lyla, and this family.in inner Shera.

Via was about to re-enter the house, but his steps stopped when he realized Shera was there. The smile that adorned his face slowly disappeared.

"Congratulations! You managed to take everything from me. Hero, my son, and the whole house" Shera said with a hostile look.

Via let out a long sigh, then glanced at Shera with a smile that was quite challenging. "You're wrong! I never took anything from you. You've thrown your luck away yourself. If only you were more grateful for what you have, none of this would have happened."

Without saying much more, Via stepped away from Shera.

The woman immediately stepped out to her car parked in front. He sat in the car with tears in his eyes. The shadow of Mr. Gunawan's words flashed back.

What is your lack of hero, Shera? He closed his eyes to all your mistakes. You never respected him as your husband. You cheated on her, you wandered around without asking her permission, you did as you pleased. And for all that, the Hero accepts as his guilt-redeemer. Now forget the Hero. He had already found a wife who truly respected him as a husband.

It was almost late at night, when Shera was still driving around in her car. He did not know where to remove the shadow of the intimacy of the Wira and also Via.

The only place he remembers is an amusement park owned by his old friend Marco. However, when he arrived there, he was wide-eyed, when he found that the entertainment place had completely razed to the ground. Apparently, the threat of a Mr. Gunawan is not kidding.

Just because Marco insulted and said that Via was a woman of the night, father actually flattened this place? I can't believe this. Is that as important as Via's position in the family? shera murmured in the heart.
