"What about work? there's a problem while I'm gone?"
"Nothing, Sir. Everything's fine,"
"I guess if I add to my day off, no problem?"
Ferro laughed across the street. Very objectionable. Because after all during Devan's leave, all the work in the office must be handled by him as Devan's right hand. While he also has his own duties.
"As for Sir. I'll always help and try to do my best,"
"You've been the best, Ferro. Surviving a dozen years with someone like me is not easy,"
Lovi went into the room after giving Auristella a meal because during dinner together earlier, Auristella fell asleep.
She saw her husband laughing with someone on the other side. Occasionally discussing work, and Lovi believes he's Ferro.
Auristella was placed on the bed while Lovi cleaned her face to wear her night care products.
Auristella played alone, accompanying her father who was busy listening to Ferro's reports and the stories of the middle-aged man during his vacation.
Auristella kicked the air while biting her hand. Devan could not focus too much on Ferro's voice, he turned to the boy who was staring at the ceiling.
Devan takes Auristella's hand out of her own mouth. Auristella turned and wanted to go back. Devan shook his head, warning. "Can't eat your hands. You are fed a nutritious and delicious diet, why even eat your hands?"
Auristella's lips curled downward. Devan who saw him chuckled in anxiety and Ferro was confused as to why his Master was laughing.
"Holiday drove him crazy, didn't it?"
Ferro patted his mouth softly which almost gave off a thought. "Sir added a holiday?"
"No, I know you're tired of replacing me, right?"
"Not really, sir always helps if I'm in trouble" Ferro gave his appreciation to Devan who did not matter when He asked for help as he asked for input even though He was on vacation with his family. Devan can help because Ferro always knows the time, not every time contact him as if he knows the right time to report to Devan.
"All right, thank you, Ferro."
"Yes, sir."
Devan will put his phone on the nightstand but Auristella whines and sticks out her hand wanting to hold Devan's phone. Finally the man gave after it was turned off.
"Do you know how to use it?"
Auristella flipped through the thin object in her hand, paying serious attention and being very curious.
What makes Devan chuckles angrily is, the boy put Devan's phone in his ear, he knows the function of the object, to communicate.
"Smart son Daddy,"
"Campaign, Auris. What are you doing?"
"Why shut up? daddy replied, Daddy's talking to you,"
Auristella chuckles amusedly as Devan pretends to be calling her. He patted Devan on the face, asking Devan to repeat.
"Princess Daddy who sometimes a lot of behavior is what the hell? why laugh? is something funny?" The boy's face pouted as Devan said 'a lot of whimsical princess' He knew Devan was teasing him out of his annoying laugh.

"Kayla's going to Aunty's room Jane can't, Ma?"
"What's going there for?"
"You make-up,"
"Don't,"
"But I'm often the MUA for Aunty Jane,"
"Yes, it's just a play, right?"
"Yes, I want to play that now. Tired of watching,"
"Adrian, accompany me there, come on."
"No, I'm comfortable here. Something that is comfortable should not be left behind,"
"What the hell? not connecting!"
"Come, I want to go there, too,"
"You want to be MUA too?"
"No, just wanna watch in Aunty Jane's room. Usually at this hour Aunty is watching a horror movie. Tired of watching movies like this continues," said Andrean while glancing at the television that is being watched Aunty, Uncle, and all his cousins including the sister as well. The movie they are watching right now is a comedy. And Andrean, whose son does not like humor, is not too comfortable to watch. The boy was always serious. Until it gets carried away to the taste of the film.
Kayla and Andrean came to Jane's room. Apparently Jane was asleep in front of her laptop showing a horror movie.
"Satan is watching Aunty. Upside down, yes" murmured Andrean while shaking his head in surprise when he stole a glance at Jane's laptop.
The eldest child climbed into the bed, then lay down next to Jane who was still closed. While Kayla began dismantling Jane's makeup tools. This is her favorite activity when she comes to Jane and Vanilla's room. Lots of make-up tools that make him endlessly curious and want to try.
Want to beautify Jane, it turns out the plan is only a plan. Kayla even put herself in front of the mirror. With abilities that are far below average He tried everything without knowing what the function of the product he was using was for. There are some that He does not understand how to use and function. Such as eyeliner, eyebrow, and contour. Eyeshadow was used very messily by the boy.
Jane's room door opened shortly. Sandra, her cousin. Sandra smiled enthusiastically when she saw Kayla was busy grooming. He also participated, even scrambling chairs in front of the dressing table.
"I came first. You don't have to sit, and stand up,"
"No want! how can it be like that?"
Andrean turned his head towards the two of them as it started to get annoyed with their insignificant debate. Jane was comfortable in her sleep.
"Swipe a little, Kayla! why are you stingy?! the nose will be taper, will you?!"
"Let it, it's good that it's taper. I finally had a nose that was not hidden inside," Kayla too casually responded to her already irritated cousin's remark. Sandra pushes Kayla, but fails to get rid of Kayla. Kayla is getting stronger to maintain her position.
"Kayla, come share the place with me. I want to dance too,"
"Dandan, please. But while standing,"
kayla's words infuriated Sandra. When she saw Kayla about to polish the lipstick, Sandra accidentally touched Kayla's hand until the lipstick was polished out of place.
"SANDRA, I BECAME LIKE A CLOWN BECAUSE OF YOU! YOU RIOTERS!"
Andrean turned his head in shock as Kayla shouted like that, followed by the sound of a small object dings. He glanced at Jane who had not opened her eyes yet as well. Understandably, Jane is not much different from Vanilla who loves sleep. Too loving even until every time they have to wake up from sleep, they feel not willing.
Kayla got up from the chair and pushed Sandra in annoyance. Sandra immediately takes Kayla's place, stealing the opportunity when Kayla gets up from the chair to push her.
"HAHAHA I CAN SIT DOWN NOW. YEAAY THANK YOU KAYLA,"
"SANDRAA!"
Jane gasped and woke up from her sleep. Andrean had indeed thought that his Aunty would definitely be made like this after hearing their debate in the beginning. Andrean knew the debate would continue. Now proven, they managed to disrupt Jane's sleep.
Jane's eyes were round when she saw that her dresser was a mess. All the makeup tools that were previously neatly arranged in a pouch are now scattered on the dressing table.
"Gosh, what are you doing?" ask Jane who's still in shock. He just woke up, woke up because of a thunderous scream, and what he found afterwards was this kind of atmosphere.
"I'm dancing, Sandra's coming straight into rioting, Aunty."
Jane immediately sat down, leaving a pillow that supported her head earlier. Andrean is back in focus with his spectacle.
"Can you get out of Aunty's room now?"
"Aunty kicked out? I'm throwing it at Papa, right?!"
"Yes, I also want to tell Dad," said Sandra who did not want to lose. They leave Jane's room irresponsibly with everything that's been going on.
"Andrean, how's this? they're gone but not responsible,"
Andrean turned his head, without saying anything he left Jane's room. The girl stomped her legs irritated. "Everyone left without caring about this mess. Erghhh! really they are all. I'll report it to each other's parents!"
Jane comes out of the room and approaches the television room with the sound of Sandra and Kayla complaining.
"Kayla, Sandra, you need to get everything done again. Poor Aunty Jane,"
Apparently Andrean came out to reprimand his two cousins. Sandra sniffed her shoulders unwillingly. "I'm not the cause. I'm just coming, and when I come, everything's like that,"
"Kayla, you made that mess, right? let's confess, and take responsibility immediately."
"No, I'm not in the mood to touch those makeup tools,"
Jane finally arrived in their midst. In a fit of annoyance he pulled the cheeks of his two impolite nephews.
"Don't do as you like. Clean everything! Aunty doesn't want to know,"
"What kind of mess did they do?"
"Look at myself in my room!"
Nindya immediately got up to see the cause of Jane's anger. As soon as he got to Jane's room door, he glared perfectly.
"Gosh, is this a room?" A stupid question came out of Nindya's mouth. Which he himself knows what the answer is. Of course it's a room, not a barn.
He went back to his son Sandra and his nephew Kayla. "Sandra, take responsibility for everything you've done. Mother doesn't like you like that huh,"
"not me! Kayla did it,"
"What the hell?! why just me?"
"Obviously when I entered his condition was already such a mess. I haven't made-up yet, Mother. Kayla who has made-up, means she's the one who messed things up. I haven't touched anything, really."
Adrian, the one who remained focused on the comedy he watched. You can even laugh when the atmosphere is hot. He and Kenith are busy with his world. The movies they watch are more interesting than the things the women discuss.
"Kayla, let's get everything done."
"No way, Ma! Sandra was wrong. Why did she come to Aunty Jane's room and go with make-up like me. He should be here. It's true, it's just me and Andrean coming to Aunty Jane's room."
Jane growled in annoyance and slammed her body on the sofa while pulling her long hair. Don't get stressed out because of all this.
Jo pelts Jhon with a sofa cushion, in order to focus on their daughter, the stubborn Kayla.
"What the hell?" jhon asked not to relax.
"You look at Jane's room now! Vice me, Nindya was already there. I'm afraid I'll faint if I come there,"
"What's wrong?" He was so lazy to walk to Jane's room. Enjoyed the movie and was told to.
"See yourself! hurry up, so you know what you have to do for Kayla,"
Jhon stared flatly at his wife, still unwilling. Jo is getting mad at Jhon. Finally he pulled out Jhon's arm to rise.
Don't want John to do what his wife tells him to do. Seeing the atmosphere of Jane's room, Jhon stared flat. As if there was nothing strange, his reaction with Nindya was completely different.
"What's wrong?" ask the man with a stupid look. Nindya was very anxious to see Jo's husband.
"You still ask? your eyes are still normal?!" exclaim Nindya with a high tone.
"That's all they've done" Jane pointed at Kayla and Sandra.
"I don't want to say much, but now your children are responsible!"
"Kinyla..."
"Come, Sandra. Do what Mama says. Even if you're not wrong, your numbers are helping Kayla. You'll be lucky to help others,"
Sandra whines, "Bundaaaa." Then he hugged Nindya. While Kayla crossed her chest and looked away, not wanting to see Jo who was scolding her.
"Kaila! don't be stubborn! quickly clean everything up!" tell Jhon who wants to end all this. Honestly, he had a headache watching this kind of debate.
Akra who had been silent since then, finally looked at Sandra flatly. The boy knew losing his father had warned from his eyes.
"Listen to the word mother. Put everything back the way it was" said her father who made Sandra finally comply.
He immediately walked into Jane's room. And Kayla still survives with her ego. Adrian who was starting to carelessly hear everything finally turned his head.
"What the hell is it?"
"It's too late you're just asking now!" Jane sneered at Adrian. "Sorry, Aunty. I'm enjoying the movie too much,"
"Kayla, do it fast! Sandra's good to help you,"
"Not helping, he had to because he was wrong, too,"
"Papa count to three if you don't want to too, then don't blame Papa if tomorrow you can't come with us on vacation again. Papa's gonna get you home,"
"ADUH SAD ME," Adrian heated up to invite a cynical glance from Kayla.
"Rather than not being able to take another vacation, you better do what Uncle Jhon says." wise advice Adrian.
Jo tucked Kayla's hair into her ear. Then lift the boy's chin. "Come, Honey. Don't let Papa get mad at you. You know for yourself that you're angry, right?" pull it gently. It worked! Kayla instantly did what everyone had wanted since then.
Seeing her two nephews already gone to her room, Vanilla heaved a sigh of relief. Then he lay down on the couch, wanting to go back to sleep.
"Lazy, Aunty wants to go to bed,"
"TIDURRR CONTINUES."
******
"I'm not the one who's wrong, I'm the one who was told to clean this up. Well, patient Sandra. You're a good boy, so you have to obey your parents" his hands are busy at work, his mouth is like that. That's Sandra, the beautiful child who obeyed when her father scolded her.
Sandra stuffed her Aunty-owned make-up tools into a pink pouch quickly.
He closed the loose powder and everything that was open. Kayla is completely irresponsible. The clothes are no longer closed.
"I'm helping,"
Sandra turned her head as Kayla came in and helped her along. "Why change your mind? it was so haughty, didn't want to clean this up,"
"Rather than me being sent home, it's better to take responsibility,"
"It's delicious to be threatened like that? get used to the responsibility,"
Kayla pitched a motion to throw a brush at Sandra, growling, "Whisper!"
"This is where the lid is?!"
"Where do I know?!" sandra replied nonchalantly as Kayla pointed at the lipstick that had lost its lid, "You were the one wearing it. And then put where? just remember." hearing Sandra's words, Kayla immediately explored the view. He went down to the floor to look for her.
Nothing, then He humbled himself and looked under the dressing table. Found her. It turned out that big of a fight they had until the lipstick lid was rolling down the table.
Adrian came to them, and watched from the door that was half open. He chuckled to himself seeing his cousin busy cleaning up the mess that had happened.
"The floor is dirty exposed to powder and-what's this called?" Sandra read the product name in her hand, "Foundation,"
"Gosh, why did it spill like this anyway?" sandra was confused. "Kayla, the floor mop!"
"Why me?! just you,"
"You made it spill! still lucky I want to help you,"
"No need for a dipel,"
"Should! aunty Jane will be angry again. If you do something, don't take responsibility,"
Adrian went into the room and then crossed his chest, as if to be a great master to the two of them.
"Haven't? what else is being discussed?"
"Kayla doesn't want to mop the floor" Sandra told Adrian.
"Kayla, mop now! you always argue when you are told. Responsibility! hurry up!"
"Gosh, I can't do it,"
"Could be! I'm the only boy I can be,"
"That's lying!"
"Can't believe? ask Mommy. Sometimes I help Mommy mop up her room,"
"Uncle Devan the rich can't possibly rely on Aunty Lovi and you to clean the room,"
"Rich doesn't mean you shouldn't touch homework. As long as it can be done alone, why ask others for help even if they are paid to work?"
"Ck! but I'm a girl, I have to be spoiled and my Papa is not allowed to do such activities,"
Adrian rolled his eyeballs. It turns out Kayla was so spoiled by Papa and Mama. "I can't either, but I once mopped the floor for spilling drinking water,"
"Well, Sandra's never been. You are overrated. Like the king's descendants never did that. You're big enough, you should be able to mop. Easy, just slide the tool,"
Kayla who was getting cornered finally came out of the room and asked where the mop was placed.
"For what?"
"To cut the grass! of course to mop the floor," the girl murmured.
"No need for a dipel,"
"Can't be, Jo. If the floor is dirty because of Kayla, she has to clean it again" said Akra, her cousin firmly.
"Let your child be held accountable. The bigger it is, the harder it is to be taught responsibility. Hence from an early age," Akra patted Jhon's serious shoulder watching. "Don't get me wrong educating a child, Jhon. You must have spoiled him too much. Evidently from the way he refused to clean up the mess earlier, so stubborn."
Akra did not intend to teach Jhon, his cousin's sister, in educating children. But if it continues like that, Kayla will get worse and worse.
Jo finally took the mop and handed it to the child. Kayla runs into Jane's room to finish her job.
Devan looked flinched as he walked out of his room, not a crowd heard. Usually in the viewing room is still crowded even though the time is already night.
"Where is my other son?" devan asked when he could not find Adrian.
"In Jane's room,"
"What is he doing? make a mess for sure,"
"It's my son who just messed up Jane's room,"
Devan glanced at Jane who was asleep on the sofa. He shook slowly. He said Jane's room was messed up, but why was the owner so sound asleep?"
Devan immediately approached Jane's room. And squinting when she saw Kayla mopping the floor, Sandra was arranging a dresser, while her son stood on Jane's bed while styling his hair, then posed like a handsome prince.
"What's this?"
"Oh Uncle, I'm surprised." Kayla who was mopping and turned her back to Devan immediately turned her head as the heavy voice greeted her.
"While tidying up Aunty Jane's room. I'm good, Uncle?" sandra asked with a proud smile.
"Lied, Uncle. We just cleaned up Aunty Jane's room 'cause we were fighting,"
"We? obviously just you! I'm not fighting, but I'm just helping you,"
"Already, hey! that's what's discussed. My ears are long because they hear you grumbling as long as the hands are working,"
"It's finished yet? if so, go to bed."
"Already, Uncle. Quick, because it's not so messy and done by two people,"
"I remember this room was like a warehouse because it was super messy. You keep lying!"
Kayla looked at Sandra cynically. After he finished his last work, he immediately came out of Jane's room.
"Ma, this is the mop."
"Get it back in its place"
"I don't know where it is,"
"So you saw Mama take it where, right?"
Kayla snorted and immediately walked into a room next to the toilet to put the tool in her hand. Kayla whose body is still small looks funny when carrying a mop. His tools were not heavy, and the boy had no trouble at all just that he was too lazy to mop.
"Smart Uncle's nephew huh. Keep it that way," praised Zio who had been paying more attention. Because He is also confused how to deal with children because He does not have children.
Kayla sits on her mother's lap. He asked to be fanned because of heat and fatigue. Jo immediately lifted the child's long and soft hair and blew his neck. Kayla chuckles amusedly. "Don't blow, Ma."
"How to avoid getting hot? it's actually cold, honey. There's an air conditioner on top of us,"
"Somehow, I'm feeling hot. Maybe it's because my energy's out so it's like this,"
"You're not used to it,"
"Papa's father. Just mopping once already such a warning,"
"It was Papa who never allowed me to try mopping the floor,"
"Well, tomorrow you're the one mopping up our house,"
"Huh?" Kayla's mouth opened in surprise. Jhon who saw it. It is impossible for him to do that either. Kayla just needs to be introduced without the need to do it often because she is still too small.
"Finally Mama's son holds a mop as well yes," ledek Jo who invited his son's whining.
"Mama has also banned me. Why is it now as if I'm the one who's so spoiled?"
"It's better not to than you whine 'Mama, my hands are dirty,' 'My hands are itching', " Jo says exaggerated sentences that sometimes come out of his son's mouth if he finds something dirty. As she dusted off her husband's desk, Kayla protested, closing her little nose. "Mama, that'sit. I sneezed from the dust" he said at the time. Though he should be able to get out of the workspace Jhon, so there is no story he whines want to sneeze. Jo also did not ask his son to follow him to the workspace of Jhon. Kayla herself was willing to follow him across the house, helping the workers in their home.
That is what sometimes makes Jo and Jhon finally choose to make his son as a queen who is not familiar with light housework, rather than Kayla always protest.
*******
"ADRIAN, DON'T MOVE! I'M SCARED,"
Adrian increasingly moves the chicken-shaped boat that they are being raised. Genta and Kenith were no less ignorant to the little girls.
It just so happened that Zio was driving it. He relaxed, no matter his niece who was a woman screaming in fear because the boat was swaying. Zio rode the boat while listening to music because the atmosphere was so supportive. The calm and cool lake managed to make it lulled when accompanied also by musical accompaniment. He imagined if later can mate, would enjoy time together on the boat is very fun and of course romantic.
"DRIAN!"
"Casual, you guys why are you so scared? if I sink this boat, you can scream. I'm just moving, you guys react like stressed people,"
"Adrian, can't you be ignorant for a few minutes? you should've been on Daddy's boat so you wouldn't riot here,"
Adrian sneered at his brother who could not be joked. His life was serious until he got tired of seeing it.
"That's the kids' boat why move huh? Zio also did not realize it seemed," said Senata who was not far from them. The boat occupied by Senata and Rena was brought by Jhon.
"Jhon, you saw Zio's boat, didn't you?"
"Yes,"
"Why sway?"
"It looks like Adrian did it,"
"Gosh, what if the boat capsized?"
"No, Zio just relax, Ma. We don't have to worry. The lake is not deep. They can all swim, too. Let them swim in the lake once in a while, meet with moss not just coral reefs," Jo pinched her husband's arm and Jhon immediately shouted. "I'm carrying this boat. You want us to drown?!"
"Sstt speaks to you, Jhon. It's so scary to hear it, Mama,"
Jhon chuckled at Senata whose face was panicked. Actually Senata did not want to take the boat earlier. I don't know why he was afraid. But being forced by his grandchildren and no one living on land, he eventually joined in.
"Devan..."
"What, Lov?'
"Adrian laughed so hard. Something must be wrong,"
If his second son had been broken like that, he would have just done something. "Their milk swayed" Devan said, laughing, realizing what Adrian was doing.
"Why are you laughing? instead of worrying about seeing them," Lovi murmured to the boat driver.
"Sinting is indeed your husband" replied Jane who also paid attention to Zio's troops. Vanilla and Jhico who were also passengers on the Devan ship could only shake their heads slowly to see Adrian laughing so hard.
"ADRIAN DON'T MESS AROUND! YOU CAN FALL!" shouted Lovi but did not make Adrian look.
"Hurry after them!" lovi said as she patted her husband on the shoulder so Devan would do what he asked.
Devan managed to get close to Zio's boat and Vanilla immediately did something right so that Zio who was enjoying the music turned to him.
Vanilla used a paddle to flush Zio and the man managed to remove the earphones from the ears and turned his head annoyed at the perpetrator who had managed to disturb his calm.
"Your face was made to sway by Adrian, you didn't notice it?! huh huh? it's dangerous, Zio!"
Zio rubbed his temples confused. "Ayeah?"
"Stupid!" maki Vanilla and once again He doused Zio using a paddle.
"My book is wet, Vanilla!"
"Eat him if you bring a child do not focus on yourself," Vanilla turned her attention to Sandra and Kayla who were pale.
"See Sandra and Kayla! because of your ignorant nephews, they're scared,"
Devan growled towards his second son who chuckled innocently. He even threw a peck far for her.
"Hallo, Daddy."
"You want to drown, right? why the hell is it that joking is always dangerous?"
"Somehow else how to get rid of your ignorant nature, Adrian. Mommy's confused,"
