"Steve.." call Naina after entering Steve's room with a glass of milk.
"Mama." replied Steve who was at his desk. Naina keeps the glass in the nightstand and then approaches Steve.
"Is the president ready?"
"A little more Ma." replied Steve.
"Solve quickly. Abis was drinking milk before going to bed."
Steve nodded and finished his schoolwork. It only took five minutes, Steve finished it.
"Udah Mah."
"Don't forget to put the book in the bag. No one is left behind." said Naina who was waiting next to Steve.
Steve did, then walked over to the bed. Steve had spent his milk.
"Sh brush your teeth first Steve."
Steve almost forgot. He said he went to the bathroom to brush his teeth. After that, get into bed.
"Tomorrow Mama's work?" ask Steve.
Naina nodded, "Papa hasn't come home yet."
Naina nodded again, "Sleep, school tomorrow."
"Ma can read Steve's story? Steve can't sleep." pinta Steve.
Naina raised her eyebrows, before Steve never wanted Naina to do it.
"May" he said as he sat next to Steve who was lying down.
Suddenly Steve held his hand, "Mom, sorry Steve. Steve has always been rough with Mama" said the boy.
Naina rubbed her head, all this time she also never put into the heart of all Steve's insults. To him Steve was a little boy who lacked affection and knew nothing.
"Yes dear. Mama is sorry. Don't think about it anymore. The important thing from today until the next Steve can not talk like that again. Moreover, the same little people do not have anything like Mama. We are all the same in the eyes of God. So we should also love each other, be it poor, rich, beautiful or ugly." Naina advises.
Steve nodded for sure, "Yes Mama. Steve promises not to." promised.
"Goodoo. Mama didn't think you could recite it." said Naina.
Steve smiled, "Mama is always good with Steve, but Steve is always evil with Mama. Steve finally found out that Mama loved Steve. Steve, isn't it Ma, if Mama loves Steve?" ask the boy with his funny face.
Naina chuckled, anxious with this son, "Of course baby. Mama loves you so much." Shuffling Steve's hair.
Steve also laughed, "Steve also loves Mama."

Naina exits Steve's room after making sure the boy is asleep. It was ten o'clock in the night when Naina went into her room. Room's still empty, which means Reygan's not home yet. Naina doesn't think much about Reygan not coming home yet or not. The woman rushed to sleep in the end.
The next day, Naina went through her activities as usual. Get ready to go to the office, help Steve put on his uniform, have breakfast together and then drive Steve to school and go to work. It's just that this morning Reygan didn't show his nose, the man didn't come home last night.
Arriving at Naina's office directly to her desk near Chris' room. Naina walks into Chris' room after being told by Chris.
But Naina was astonished because there was no one in there.
"Sister Chris.." call him, but there's no answer.
As Naina turned around the girl was surprised to see Chris already standing behind her.
"Sister.." screeches while smothering his mouth. His eyes widened to see Chris holding a medium-sized cake with a twenty-three figure candle on it.
"Happy birthday dear brother." said Chris cheerfully.
Naina was speechless, she just remembered her birthday was today. Her bead glazed over seeing the burning candle almost half of it.
"Don't you remember my birthday?" asked Naina, not expecting.
"Remember dong. Where could you forget." said Chris.
Naina laughed happily, deeply moved by this surprise. It's been a while since she left the house, Naina rarely celebrates her birthday. Several times only Risa made a surprise for him.
Naina blows out the candle after Chris finishes the song.
"There's still a lot of Chris's brother to surprise Naina. I forgot that Naina's birthday is today."
Chris smiled, "You are the most important person in my life. Brother must always do whatever you want to be happy."
Naina pursed her lips happily, "Sister.." hugged Steve, "Naina also loves Brother Chris. It's a pity even."
The two laughed happily, "Let's sit down first, let's eat the cake."
Naina eagerly sits on the sofa. The girl took over the cake, cut it in small pieces.
"Sir. aaaa.." asked Chris to open his mouth.
"Later in the afternoon other employees want to celebrate your birthday" said Chris who is a statement.
"Kaak.." protested.
"Risa is also ready for the cafe for the afternoon" he added again without caring for Naina's whining.
Naina snorted, while Chris pinched both of her cheeks.
"I can't be angry on my birthday. I know you haven't had another birthday since you left the parlor. So for today, let the others celebrate your happy day Nai." said Chris.
Naina pursed her lips, "Yes. It's up to you, brother."
Naina's birthday is not her real birthday. He was an orphan who really did not know his biological family. Naina was found in front of the parlour at midnight twenty-three years ago. Their birth dates are adjusted to the day they are found.
When the afternoon arrives, precisely at five o'clock, the office employees finish work faster. They are invited to celebrate the birthday of their boss's secretary. Naina's. They immediately rushed to the celebration.
And at Cafe Orchid, they had already gathered including Naina who was the center of attention that afternoon. Many congratulations that Naina received there. Her smile adorned her beautiful face.
"Happy birthday, Nai." said Risa then hugged and kissed her cheeks.
"Please Brother. Brother who decorates all this?"
"No. The kids are ready" he said.
"Thank you, brother, you're ready for all this."
"Thou shalt be like anyone. You're my sister."
"Yes Brother. Naina is so happy today."
"Should dong, you should be happy on this happy day."
Naina is really happy today. There were many smiles she received from those who loved her.
Three hours is enough for today's celebration. After cutting her birthday cake, and eating the dishes provided with her friends, Naina decides to go home.
Naina remembers Steve waiting for her at home. Naina tries hard to keep Chris from driving her home. Lucky Risa who turned out to be drunk due to drinking alcohol, making Chris have to drive Risa home. Risa was providing alcohol, but Naina did not drink it because she was intolerant to alcohol or allergic.
Naina was picked up by her driver, it's still eight o'clock, Steve must still not be sleeping. She was so happy today, that her smile was still so bright in the car.
Suddenly the car stopped, "What's the matter sir?" ask Naina.
"There's Mr. Reygan sir." said the driver.
Naina was surprised, looking for the person in question. And it turns out that guy's right in front of there. Stepping closer with a sharp look of eyes towards him.
The car door was forcefully opened, the man immediately pulled his hand violently.
"Sir.." screeched.
"From you. I have to teach you a lesson. You cheap girl!" rygan snapped, pulling Naina roughly out of the car.
