Not Just a Milk Mother

Not Just a Milk Mother
Chapter 27



Allura got off the taxi he was riding in. Before leaving earlier, he was offered by Mrs Fika to be escorted by her family driver, but Allura refused because she did not want to bother her family.


Before going to the hospital, Allura had time to breastfeed Bintang and say goodbye to the red baby. However, Allura did not say goodbye to Arzan because he thought it was not important.


Allura began to step her feet towards the room where Mother Ani was, actually her heart was still nervous because she had not spoken honestly to her mother. The girl also got word from Viana that her mother would do some blood washing today.


However, before Allura met her mother who was doing blood washing, she first met Viana who was already in Mother Ani's nursery.


"Ana, I miss you so much!" allura exclaimed as she slammed into Viana's body.


"Ish, we just met yesterday. What about your baby?" viana asked directly in her mouth by Allura.


"Shut, don't be too loud and don't talk about it here," Allura scolded as she looked around.


There were some people who turned their heads towards him, Allura immediately nodded his head for a moment and apologized to those people.


Viana squinted her eyes and saw that some people were indeed staring at them.


"I'm sorry, I forgot about it" Viana said, showing her guilty face.


"Never mind forget. But, don't do it again!" Allura warned Viana not to do it again.


However his current job, people still consider it taboo and Allura does not want until someone else thinks negatively about him. Especially if the person is intending to be ugly and directly talk a no-no to his mother.


"So, how's the baby. Is she okay?" viana asked in a slow tone.


"Alhamdulillah, good news, Na."


"Oh, thank goodness. I was thinking that you wouldn't be a match for him, let alone that the family looked cold and indifferent to you" Viana responded.


Allura shook her head, she dismissed all Viana's accusations to her employer's family.


"No, Na. The family was so kind to me, they were also friendly and not rude" Allura replied immediately.


"Alhamdulillah, ah. I'm happy to hear it" Viana said as she rubbed Allura's upper arm.


After that, the two girls were silent and busy with their thoughts. Viana with her phone and Allura who keeps worrying about the Stars. They remained silent for a while.


"By the way, is Mama still long, Na?" asked Allura who never saw the existence of the mother.


"It should be a little while, anyway" Viana replied as she glanced at the small, circular watch on her wrist.


"Oh."


"Ra, can I ask you something?" ask Viana.


Actually he was very curious about the past of his best friend's family, but all this time he was too afraid to ask that.


Allura herself felt astonished by Viana, it was not as usual for the girl to speak in a serious tone to her.


"Ask what, Na? It seems like a serious thing?"


"You ... Has your family ever been in trouble?" viana asked hesitantly.


Allura frowned when she heard the question from Viana, she felt strange because only this time Viana asked like that.


"Not really, Na," Allura replied as she shook her head.


"Why, Na?" asked Allura again, he was curious why Viana could think if his family had dealt with a certain party.


Viana seemed hesitant to say something again, but she had to keep asking in order to get a definite answer.


"Actually .. actually yesterday I accidentally saw a man dressed in all black come to your rented house. The man's body was also tall, large and his head was bald. So, I think he's one of the loan sharks who came to collect a debt from you," replied Viana, bowing her head.


Allura was speechless, she tried to remember someone who might come to her house looking like Viana mentioned earlier. But the result was futile, Allura could not guess the person at all.


"That's it. I've never had a problem with people like that, Na. Mama and the late Papa don't seem to either. So ... I don't know," Allura replied as she shrugged her shoulders for a moment.


Viana nodded her head several times, she herself was curious about that person. If yesterday was not in a hurry, he would have approached the man.


"Oh, don't think too much. Maybe it was just the person who wanted to ask for the address," Allura said as she patted Viana on the shoulder before she stood up and walked towards the door.


"Where are you going, Ra?" ask Viana.


Allura stopped her steps and turned around for a moment.


"I got the phone first" he said, showing the caller ID on his phone.


Viana rounded her mouth without making a sound, she also let Allura continue her steps that had stopped earlier.


Allura receives a call from Arzan immediately, he feels bad when Arzan suddenly contacts.


"Assalamualaikum, sir," said Allura as soon as the phone call was answered.


"Wa'alaikum salam. Where are you at?" ask Arzan to the point.


"I'm in the hospital, sir. To see the condition of my mother. I said goodbye to Madam Fika, too" replied Allura while watching the hospital hallway that felt lonely.


"So, Mama let you go?" asked Arzan in an upset tone, so Allura had time to get away from his phone from the ear.


"I–iya, Sir. Madam Fika gave me permission to come out for a while," Allura replied softly.


Allura could hear a heavy gasp across the street, and even she could hear the sound of a crying baby.


"Sir, are the stars crying now?" ask Allura again.


"Hmmm, as you heard," replied Arzan coldly.


Allura grimaced when she heard Arzan's unusual tone. However, for now he cannot go home immediately because he has not had time to meet with Ani's mother.


"Sorry, Sir. I ... I haven't seen my Mom yet. After all, I had breastfed Bintang before leaving," said Allura again.


"Oh yeah, we'll try to calm him down first, hopefully the stars won't be fussy for long."


"I–iya, Sir. Then I'll hang up the phone, Assalamualaikum."


After Allura heard the greeting from there, he hung up the phone.


"Hopefully the star will drink my ASIP—," said Allura while hugging the phone that is still in his grasp. However, he had not had time to turn his body, suddenly a very familiar voice sounded cold to greet him.


"WHO's ASS, Lura?"
