Not a Substitute

Not a Substitute
D12 Drowning In His Hugs



Ellen microwaves the food for breakfast. All the questions asked for him by Arman, he did not answer. 


Arman is confused about how to behave at a time like this. He knows he's wrong. But he also apologized. He was confused as to what kind of apology he should apologize for.


He says goodbye to work. Ellen was silent.


“Kai .. bye .. bye ..” Arman kisses Ellen and Kai.


In the afternoon. 


Arman asked Ellen again. “El, why are you just silent?” Arman has to clear up all the misunderstandings.


“I'm just tired. I want to save my energy.”


“We can hire a baby sitter for Kai.”


Ellen wanted to take care of her own son. But if it is overwhelmed it is better to get help. They decided to hire a baby sitter.


The next day comes a baby sitter to help Ellen take care of Kai. The girl was called Rose. He still looks so young. 


“How many users?” ask Ellen.


“Nineteen years,” replied Rose.


Roses that really like children are immediately familiar with Kai. Ellen could rest herself. But after a long time the rose did not come and did not give any news.


Ellen is alone again looking after Kai. But he was strong enough to take care of Kai. 


“Kai ..” Arman calls Kai who has started learning to crawl. He exemplifies how Kai should crawl. Kai just laughed to see his father who was waiting.


Ellen directly slid herself onto Arman's back. Kai laughed again.


“Smiling Kai is sweet.” Ellen looked at Kai who was smiling widely. 


“Who was his papa.” Arman praised himself. Looks like Arman's DNA is so strong in Kai.


“El, you're heavy.” Arman began to feel tired of holding Ellen's body weight. Ellen got up and sat on the floor.


“Is there any news about Roses?” Ellen was worried about the rose.


“Rose seems to be TKW overseas.”


The security guard in front of the house brought food that Ellen ordered online. Ellen gave a box of rice and side dishes to the security guard.


“Thank you, Mistress.”


“Sama-sama. Eaten directly, sir. Still anget.”


“Good Mistress. I excuse.”


Arman sat on the dining table chair after sitting Arman in the child seat. “What did you buy?”


“I bought pizza.” The smell of pizza.


Arman took one piece. Kai seemed interested in pizza. “Kai want? Kai can't eat this yet.” But Arman kept feeding Kai a small piece of soft bread.


“Kai want again?” Arman saw Kai sticking out his hand asking for bread. Arman feeds Kai again. Ellen came to bring MPASI food for Kai who had started trying soft foods. 


“It's better Kai.” Ellen feeds Kai. Kai who likes to eat immediately finished his meal. Because of the satiety he fell asleep.


Ellen sees Kai being laid by Arman in her baby box. “So the baby was delicious, yeah. Eating, sleeping, playing. Like there is no burden. Especially if you see them sleeping, it feels peaceful.”


Arman lay next to Ellen. “Sometimes I envy Kai.”


“Why?”


“Kai all the time always with you. While I have to be in the office.”


“That's the name of the responsible father. But at night, I'm yours.” Ellen kissed Arman. The kiss got hotter. 


“Arman ..”


“El ..”


They're doing.


Arman hugged Ellen. “It's time for us to sleep too.”


Ellen fell asleep in Arman's arms.


End.
