Mother To Daddy (Close)

eps 12's

Sunlight began to peek behind the curtains. Slowly the light hit the beautiful face of a woman who was sleeping in her sitting position.

Both of her eyes narrowed when the reflection of the sun greeted her, the woman straightened her back which felt very sore because of the uncomfortable sleeping position.

Exhaling slowly as he stared at the paper strewn across his desk, turning to stare at the clock of the wall that was ticking indicating that it was already quite noon if it were said to be morning.

He went to clean up immediately. I don't know what time he fell asleep last night.

Stella resumed her work, there were still a few more pieces she had to work on. He wanted to finish it and rest. His body is really tired.

Tok tok!

Stella looked up, looking at Sari who entered her room with a tray in her hand.

"Bak, there's Mas Rega downstairs, he's waiting for Ma'am" said Sari, putting a coffee cup on the table, as well as picking up the rest of the coffee last night.

Stella nodded. "Thank you, Sar."

"Rome?" call Stella to see Rega sitting on the sofa, with her elbows resting on her two open legs.

Rega looked up, a smile rising on his face. "Hi, Ste? How are you?" sapana.

"Okay, Ga. What's up?" tanyanya took a seat opposite to Rega.

"I went to your house yesterday, but ART said you haven't been home for a few days, so I decided to come here, visit you," Rega answered, looking at the face of the woman in front of him who seemed to me.

Stella leaned her head against the sofa. "I have a job that can't be put off, Ga."

"You haven't had breakfast?" guess Rega.

Stella shakes. "Not yet."

"Come with me, we'll have breakfast together," asked Rega later.

"No, Ga. Thanks."

"Come, Ste? I don't want anything to happen to you, I don't want you to get sick from skipping your breakfast" Rega said forcefully.

Stella looked at the man before her, countless times she refused Rega's invitation, she became unwell.

Exhaling a long breath. "Alright, I'll be ready," he broke up later.

Rega nodded and smiled.

Sandy just drove Aiden to school, today she is deliberately driving her own car, not with her personal driver.

Turning her steering wheel to the left, Sandy intends to pass through the boutique where Stella works. Honestly, he was a little worried about the woman's condition, the last time he saw her during a video call with Aiden, there was a tired face of Stella who could be sure that the woman was not in good shape.

Sandy pulled over her car when she saw the view in front of Stella's boutique, saw a man dressed formally walking along with Stella, and opened the car door for Stella, shortly after the car was gone.

What did Sandy expect? Stella is beautiful, there must be a lot of men who are interested in her. Although the widow, did not make Stella's beauty fade, Sandy admitted that, even she had thought that Stella was still a girl.

Seeing Stella with other men makes Sandy feel a strange turmoil, she regrets passing Stella's boutique, or maybe more precisely she is upset to see Stella with other men. No matter what the reason for his frustration was, he did not know either.

*

A few days later, after seeing Stella with another man, Sandy became a little quiet, her face flat, her gaze cold. Even when Aiden asks for a video call with Stella, Sandy balked, saying that Stella is busy.

While on the other hand, the day before the event began, Stella decided to look at the process of fitting clothes.

In the end Stella managed to finish her design on time, although she had to sacrifice her body to work during the night. But it's okay, he felt relieved and happy because it did not disappoint his customers.

When helping to put on clothes, suddenly his head felt dizzy, his entire vision felt swirling. Not long after his body fell on the floor, he fainted.

Stella woke up from her sleep, her eyes looking around. "Where am I?" his murmur touched his throbbing head.

"You're sober, Ste?" a voice greeted Stella, making her look.

"Reg? Where'm I?" tanyanya.

"You're in the hospital, Ste. You fainted, Jery brought you here, "Rega answered.

"Then? Where's Jery?" the question was to look at the whole room, to find Jery.

"He's back at the boutique. He asked me to take care of you." Rega paused his words. "Sleep, Ste. You need rest" Rega said, stroking Stella's head.

Stella nodded and closed her eyes again, because honestly her eyes felt heavy, and before long she had been asleep to her dreamland.

Rega continued to notice the pale face of the woman before him who was sleeping, she felt sorry for Stella.

Earlier, when he was in the middle of a meeting, his phone rang, with Jery's name as the caller, informing him that Stella was in the hospital.

For fear of something bad happening to Stella, Rega rushed to leave the meeting just like that, she was really worried about Stella.

Rega let out a deep breath, opting out of the room to contact someone.

Fara, who has just arrived in Jakarta, intends to visit Sandy at her office, because it is time for lunch, she plans to invite Sandy to lunch outside.

At first Sandy refuses, but not Fara if she doesn't succeed in forcing Sandy.

Both are currently sitting in one of the cafeterias in the middle of the city.

As usual, Fara continued to stick to Sandy, she deliberately wanted to show off to other cafe visitors, even she deliberately chose a cafe that crowded visitors so that everyone knew that Sandy was only hers. A handsome man with a million charisms, as well as wealth that even seven descendants would not run out of.

Fara is very proud of her status as the future wife of a Sandyaga. Although Sandy did not say she would marry him, but Sandy's status as a joint mother for Aiden proves that Sandy also considers herself a prospective wife, right?

Sandy is bored with Fara who continues to stick to her, actually she also does not like to be the center of attention.

Through the tail of her eyes, Sandy noticed two men walking past her and took a seat behind her. In a bit he could still hear the conversation between the two.

She faintly heard the words 'Stella' and 'hospital' spoken from the two men behind her.

Instantly she recalled that the man was the one she had seen with Stella a few days ago.

"Daddy, how about we stop by Mother's place?" take Aiden after sitting in the car.

This afternoon Sandy took the time to pick Aiden up for school, because the work in the office was not too much, and there were no important meetings.

"Why, Aiden?" Sandy looked at it and started the engine.

"Aiden misses Mother, said Vini Bunda again sick," replied Aiden staring at Sandy full of hope.

Sandy looked over immediately. "Who's Vini?"

"He's Aiden's friend, Dad. Mommy's Vini's friend Mother."

Sandy seemed to think. 'Stella's sick?'

Then he remembered the conversation of two men while at the cafe, lest the one they were talking about at that time was Stella who was sick?

"Alright hotshot, let's meet Mother," Sandy replied stroking Aiden's head. Actually, he also wanted to make sure of Stella's condition.

*

"The shop is closed, Dad," Aiden said lethargic as he watched Stella's boutique covered with hangers that read 'CLOSE'.

"Maybe Mommy is at home" Sandy replied hesitantly.

"Daddy knows Mother's house?" aiden asked curiously, and Sandy's headband made Aiden look down lethargic.

Sandy was still watching the building in front of her, not how long a woman was out of the boutique.

Sandy invites Aiden down to approach the woman.

"Excuse me, Miss," said Sandy, holding Aiden.

The woman turned her head, watching the man in front of her who was holding a small child. For a moment the woman kept watching Sandy, as if remembering something.

"Sir Sandy?" guess it.

Sandy nodded. "Stella's there?"

"Mbak Stella, sir. It's been four days."

Sandy gasp. 'Four days?'

"What's the sick mother, Auntie?" Aiden who was curious also opened his voice.

"He's just exhausted," Sari replied noticing the adorable face in the handsome man's sling.

Sari looked at the two alternately, curious about the relationship between the two, because they had almost similar faces, only her eyeballs were different.

"You're going to the hospital, Miss?" ask Sandy to make sure.

Awakening from his daydream. "Yes, sir."

"Let's come with me, I happen to want to see Stella." It is not an offer, but a call.

"Eh?"

"That's okay, sir," Sari refused nervously. He was afraid his heart could marathon, sitting in a car with a handsome man.

"It's okay, come on," Sandy insisted.

Inevitably Sari followed Sandy who was walking towards the car, saving quite a taxi fare, he thought.

"Stella hurts what?" ask Sandy again when she's in the car.

"Fatigue, Sir. Stella's mother some days did not have time to rest, overtime continued, rarely eat too."

"Why is that?" sandy asked Sari from the rearview mirror, because Sari was sitting behind while Aiden was beside her.

Sari breathed a tired breath. "This is all because of the crazy women who deliberately spilled coffee on the design of Mbak Stella," he was upset.

"Mbak Stella had to repeat everything from the beginning, while the clothes would be used for two more months that time. Stella overtime every night, the break time is less, the eating schedule is not regular. The peak was five days ago when the shirt fittings he passed out and was taken to the hospital," he glanced at Sandy who was sitting behind the wheel.

Sandy does not know that it will be like this, she knows that Stella does not want to disappoint her customers, even willing to overtime every night, to cause the woman to be exhausted and end up in the hospital.

All because of Fara, but despite knowing that Fara was the cause, Stella did nothing to the woman who is now a mother-to-be status.

Either Sandy should be sympathetic or upset by Stella's attitude.

A few minutes later, the three reached the hospital, Sari as a guide to walk first to Stella's room.

Stella was sleeping on the cage.

Aiden immediately ran over and sat down beside Stella. To brush the hand of her Mother who was not disturbed at all by her presence.

Sandy glanced around no one accompanying Stella. "Are you alone?" tanyanya turned towards Sari.

"Yes, Sir. But if there's a Mas Rega at night with Mas Jery."

Sandy scrunched her forehead. 'Who are they?'
