Neighbor's Room

Felix's Business

The image that was holding Finn's shirt and was about to hang it, immediately turned to Felix and accidentally dropped Finn's shirt so surprised. Both eyeballs and mouth Image immediately opened after hearing Felix's sudden remark.

"A-married? Wh-what do you mean Om? Don't be weird, yeah" Citra panicked. He even immediately retreated while crossing both of his hands in front of his chest. I don't know why his brain was traveling so he heard the word mating coming out of Felix's lips.

As soon as he realized the mistake of the word selection, Felix immediately hurriedly explained.

"Eh, mom-it's not like that. I mean, marriage. Yes, marriage. Not the 'that'' marriage'." Felix immediately corrected his words. I don't know why he was suddenly nervous so that between his brain and mouth was not as smooth as it was.

Citra's forehead was still wrinkled. He really could not digest what Felix said.

"What does this mean, Om? I don't understand what Om Felix said."

Felix looked frustrated. He himself was still confused by what he had just said. Felix tried to calm himself down before talking back to Citra.

"You finish first drying Finn's clothes. After this, we talk. I put Finn to sleep first" Felix said, staring at Citra with a serious look.

Inevitably, Citra could only nod her head full of question marks. He resumed the activity of drying clothes after Felix passed from there.

Not long after, the image was finished. He walked to the kitchen to get some water. I don't know why his throat was dry. In fact, Citra does not do strenuous activities.

Actually, Citra was still worried about Felix. He looks reluctant to approach Felix who was waiting for him in the living room with Finn sleeping on the carpet in front of him. Yeah, Felix did put Finn to sleep in the living room at the time.

The image looked hesitant as it was about to walk up to Felix. However, inevitably he still had to go to papa Finn to ask for an explanation of what he meant earlier.

Felix, who realized that Citra was walking towards him, turned his head. He immediately put the phone he had been playing on the table. Felix also shifted to make room for Citra to sit nearby.

With a little hesitation, Citra ventured to sit on the carpet close to Finn's toe. Felix himself who had shifted to near Finn's head, immediately inching until now facing the direction of Citra.

Both are silent and no one has spoken yet. A curious image of what Felix will say, while Felix himself is trying to regulate his heartbeat which inexplicably becomes timid.

Until a while later, Felix ventured into a voice. He was already weighing up if what he would talk about with Citra this time, would have a big impact on the lives of both of them in the future.

"Ehm, this is Cit. What I'm going to talk about this time, might surprise you. But, I'm asking not to be angry. Please think about this first. I'm not forcing and not demanding you agree to do so. But, at least you can think of this for a long period of time." Felix tried to open his voice.

The still image listened to Felix. He looked at the man sitting cross-legged in front of him while rubbing his knees. Either it was done to reduce nervousness, or there was something wrong with both knees.

"What do you mean, Om?" ask Citra.

After a long sigh, Felix finally went back to explaining.

"I know you already think of Finn as your own son. Even though you dodged it, what you showed me when Finn was sick yesterday cannot be lied to. And, I'm very, very grateful for your concern with Finn."

Felix paused his words for a bit before continuing.

"As you know, Finn has lost his mother. And, as a good father, I will still do my best for Finn including finding a mom who loves him with all my heart. Mama who can be a place for Finn spoiled, sigh later, and also share happiness. And, I can see all those criteria are in you, Cit. So, will you marry me to be Finn's mom?"

Hhmmm, answered do you want to?
