A few minutes before lunch, Vicky came in a hurry while carrying some stuff in his hand.
The man knew that his two women were sulking because they were waiting for him to come to the office today.
"Good day, my beauty" said Vicky who went straight to where Lia who was sitting spending her snacks.
Lucky the job Ayu gave me was done a few minutes ago.
If until Vicky knows that Ayu gave office work to Lia, it can be ascertained that Ayu's fate is not good even though there is still Ane who will be a shield.
"What are you doing, Lia?" vicky asked, the man even took Lia and sat her on his lap.
"Who from where? I'm so tired of waiting for papa here" lia complained with a manyun lips.
"I'm sorry papa. There's a little business you have to do out there. But it's all done. Papa brought lunch and toys for you" said Vicky showed what he was carrying from outside the office.
"We're having lunch here?" ask Lia.
"Yes, I bought you your favorite food. But if you want us to go outside, it doesn't matter" Vicky said.
Lia was speechless, looking at the handsome face of the slightly sweaty papa. Looks like his papa's exhausted. And that certainly makes Lia unable to force her will.
Long life as an ordinary person made the sense of tolerance in Lia's heart flourish.
"But it seems like papa is very tired. We just eat here" said Lia relented.
A beautiful smile was engraved on Vicky's lips after hearing his son's words. And make Vicky even more proud of his little daughter.
"Thank you, baby. Papa is very proud of you. Next time we go for a walk" said Vicky promised to replace Lia's plan that did not work today.
"Yes pa" Lia replied as she nodded and smiled.
It seems that Lia has accepted Vicky's presence and loves him with all her heart. Indeed, the thickness of the blood bond will not be able to match anything.
"You know that Johan's birthday is two weeks away?" ask Vicky, while Ane is still busy with her work.
"Know pa. I even bought her a present" Lia replied.
"Oh yeah? You're so considerate" Vicky said.
"Of course, pa. Johan is now Lia's brother. He will be very happy when he receives a gift from me. Papa himself has bought a gift too, right for Johan?" ask Lia who is still at home on the lap of her papa.
"Honey already. A gift that Johan really wanted" Vicky said.
"good. Papa should pay more attention to Johan as well. Because Johan always told Lia that he was very lonely" said Lia who again remembered Vicky to take time for Johan.
"After this, papa is sure that Johan will not feel lonely anymore, dear" said Vicky gently while stroking his daughter's long hair.
"When we're all together again, huh, pa? Johan must be happy if one more school with me" said Lia.
Lia knew that her parents planned to send her to Johan's school later when they settled in Jakarta. Even all the administrative needs they have given so that when they later live in Jakarta, then Lia will directly go to school with Johan.
Lia spends time with both her parents. After Ane finished with her office business, the three of them had fun together. From eating, watching together and also shopping.
Vicky was very happy to be able to make both women happy. His tiredness seemed to disappear somewhere when he saw a happy smile from them.
Now, when Vicky decides to stay at the mess Ane makes Lia a chance to sleep alone.
But before, Lia still wanted to contact Johan. Because they have not greeted each other for a long time because of the tests they both went through together.
"Hi Jo, how are you? Don't you miss me?" asked Lia with her manyun lips, which always succeeded in making Johan feel anxious.
"Of course I miss you, Lia. Aren't we busy with our exams these past few weeks. Um, by the way how was your exam? Is everything all right?" asked Johan, the little man was also lying on his big bed that was very comfortable.
"Everything's smooth. You know I'm smart" arrogant Lia giggling.
"Yes yes, I know. You are smart, brave, and a karate. I'm so proud of you, son" Johan said, imitating an adult's voice.
"In a moment we'll be living together, Jo. Papa and Mama said that we will stay in Jakarta after I go to class" Lia said happily, hoping Johan would forget his desire to live with his father who Lia considers a criminal.
"Yes, and hopefully we can be together later. But if we can't be together, I promise to be your best friend, Lia. The bond of our friendship can never be broken even if the distance must separate the two of us" Johan said.
Both of them were silent this time. After Johan spoke like an adult. Now even Lia who felt very sad and did not want to be far from Johan.
"I pray that we can stay together, Jo. As brothers who are compact and love each other. And we can grow up together and achieve the ideals can be together" said Lia hopeful.
Barandai-andai so that the two can get along with each other and stay in one roof.
"Yes, hopefully. Um, how was your day?" tanta Johan diverts the conversation, hoping Lia forgets her desire to force her to stay.
"Today I'm so happy, Jo. It was like having a whole family for a long time as the three of us spent this whole day together" Lia said with sparkling eyes.
Hearing Lia's words further makes Johan believe his decision to stay with his father alone.
Johan did not want to ruin the family's happiness by forcing himself to be accepted among them.
"You spent time with your Papa and Mama? That must be really fun. I also felt happy like that when Mama Ruby invited me to play, and there was Robi's father too" Johan said.
"We were also very happy even though I still did not know that Robi's father was my real father at that time. But Robi's father treats me very well, Lia. He seemed to love me very much" Johan continued, judging his father's kindness.
He just wanted Lia's poor judgment of her father to be reduced and let her have the desire to have the opportunity to live with her father even though she would not be able to live as luxuriously as she was prince of the Alexander family.
"When we just got out of that kidnapping huh? And just don't you forget one thing, Jo. Your father kidnapped us back then" Lia said, still very emotional for Johan's parents.
"Everyone has a chance to improve, Lia. And I hope my father can be a better person later. I believe he is a good father" said the wise Johan.
"Yes, hopefully your father can change yes, Johan" finally Lia had to agree to Johan's words.
Just as it seemed that also gave Vicky a chance to become a better father for him.
Both boys were still busy making video calls until almost midnight and were equally unaware if they were asleep.
Until the phone they use dies and morning comes. Lia and Johan were still asleep when the sun had already risen.
