~ How can I open my heart, if that nightmare always comes every night, when these eyes start to shut.
_Nathan_
*****
The afternoon after school,
I got out of the car, and ran small to Arsy's school.
My eyes are looking here and there, Ah that's it.
Arsy was sitting on a swing accompanied by a woman in a batik uniform, whom I had guessed as his teacher.
"Army... Sorry, brother is late. The driver came long ago." I cupped my hands together, then nodded politely to the woman next to Arsy.
"Yes my sister is fine, Arsy is accompanied by Miss Dewi really." Arsy smiled so sweetly.
If only her father Arsy could smile like this. Get a complete package.
I thank Miss Dewi. He simply replied with a smile, then watched me from head to toe. Quibble. What the hell is going on?.
"You... New sister Arsy?" Ask in an uncertain tone.
Arsy pulled my hand down, meaning that I crouched down and aligned with him. After that, he whispered something to me,
"Sister, Miss Dewi likes my papa the same." Arsy whispered in my ear.
Oops . So so anyway. I nodded in understanding. Then stand back up, and put on a big smile for Miss Dewi.
"I'm not her sister, Miss. But...Arsy's future mother." I said with the pedenya. Checkmate!
Let him not have to hope anymore with Mr. Nathan.
Miss Dewi was shocked to hear that. So did Arsy, he covered his mouth with both hands.
The teacher, Arsy, was now looking at Arsy, as if he could not believe what I said.
"Is that really Arsy?"
Arsy nodded while keeping his mouth shut. I could only help but laugh at Arsy's funny expression.
"In that case, we go home first Miss... Good day."
I said goodbye and rushed to Arsy, to leave the place. Can't stand it also feels noticed continuously by him. It would be weird if I became Arsy's future mother.
The online car I rented was still waiting across the street. After getting into the car, Arsy releases both of his hands.
"Why do you keep your mouth shut?" many wonder.
"That's my surprised expression, brother." said Arsy.
"Oh yeah? Brother just found out. So if you're surprised you have to shut up, right?"
"Yes I saw it on the TV show that Bik Munah watched yesterday. There was a little boy who was shocked, kept him gaping, and closed his mouth so. But it's a secret, don't tell papa."
I laughed hearing that. "Every boss. You're so smart."
"Hiii. Arsy is smart. Miss Dewi always sends greetings to papa through Arsy, but my papa doesn't like."
I cringed ."Why don't you like papa? Miss Goddess is beautiful."
Arsy shrugged both of his shoulders.
"Papa said beautiful women are poison. Arsy doesn't understand either. Poison is bitter because papa never rasain."
Wow. wahh. Mr. Nathan is so great of you. He said I couldn't teach him the absurd and not - not to Arsy. But it turns out he himself said those words to a little boy like Arsy. I have to protest with him later. Really too.
**************
Arriving at home, the food has been prepared by Bik Munah.
Arsy eats with gourmand. Bik Munah's cooking is really good.
It turns out that Bik Munah has worked here for 8 years. Of course he understands the ins and outs of this family.
"Loh, non Nindi didn't eat? " Bik Munah rebuked me, who was in the kitchen taking a drink in the refrigerator.
"No, I am still full. It will be later."
"Auntie, what the hell." I was embarrassed - ashamed.
"But yes non, aunt was also surprised when non Nindi came, this is the first time Den Nathan brought women, after mistress Jihan was not there."
The jihan?
Who's that. This is an opportunity to find information from Bi Munah.
"Madam Jihan is Arsy's mother huh, bi.. where is she ?" manya curious.
Bi munah lowered her face, "That let non ask himself Den Nathan yaa... Auntie dare not tell. If Den Nathan can already accept the presence of non Nindi, then he must be the same story non."
I nodded at him.
Failed to get the info. Since yesterday I was curious about the figure of Arsy's birth mother. Why there are no pictures here. I also have not dared to ask Mr. Nathan. Our relationship has not been that close, to tell each other.
"Well bi, I'll go ahead with Arsy." I walked out of the kitchen.
I saw that Arsy had finished eating, and was now watching TV in the living room, sitting on a carpet of maroon fur. I walked over and sat next to him.
"Sister, Arsy's sleepy. Accompany Arsy to sleep.."
I nodded in agreement. She stroked her fine hair, and carried Arsy to her room.
Arsy's room is downstairs, while Mr. Nathan's room is upstairs.
I lay Arsy's body on a single-sized bed covered in Barbie's bedsheet motif, and started reading him stories.
We laughed and joked together until he fell asleep.
I smiled looking at the innocent face of Arsy who was asleep. Her skin is white and smooth.
And her hair was bangs, a little blond.
Arsy's real mom must be pretty...
But why does Arsy never talk about his mother either. I really don't understand this family.
That's as bitter as it is until you all don't want to remember the woman...
I peeked at Arsy's forehead, then slowly - the ground came out of his room.
Hufh. Turns out tired too. I tied my hair up. Because my nape feels sweaty.
As I passed the living room, I passed Mr. Nathan who had just come down from upstairs.
"Oh, Nathan is home." I greeted him. Suddenly my spirit returned. All tired it's gone somewhere. Mr. Nathan is like a mood booster to me
"Arsy's asleep?" asked Mr. Nathan, ignoring my greeting.
I nodded in agreement. Then take my bag lying on the sofa.
"You're going home yet?" ask Mr. Nathan again.
"Yes, I have an unfinished task today. Father has come anyway. Wh why? you don't want me to go home....?" I said a little teasing him.
Mr. Nathan smiled obliquely. "Your ngaco!"
My lips are pursed. Why not just admit it. Just say it's still missing. Yes sir....
"What are you going home for? want to be in between ?"
"No, sir, I ordered an ojek online. Ah this is he has come. I'm leaving sir.."
I was ready to open the door. When Nathan called me back.
"Eh wait. It's your payment problem. How much should I pay to babysit Arsy?"
I was silent for a moment, my mind was starting to go awry.
"That's when I think first yes sir, which obviously the payment is not cheap lhoo. Hihi. Bye bye Mr. Nathan.. "
I blinked one eye, then rushed out before Mr. Nathan could answer.
In the house earlier maybe I look relaxed, when in fact I hold a chest pounding that is not bad at this time. My feelings are mixed up, like a roller coaster ride.
