One Night Being a Young Dad

CHAPTER 38

Dirga's arrival makes the Ocean a little cheerful and forgets about last night's troubles. Cean noticed Dirga's presence had an effect on the mood of the Ocean.

The Ocean is also close to Yuri, Yuri's gentle demeanor and slight childishness are easy to herself close to the Ocean. Dirga also noticed that, at least if later it should be married to Yuri, Yuri can accept the Ocean because Dirga can not take off the Ocean just like that.

"She looks like a good woman." Cean opened the conversation.

Cean and Dirga were sitting some distance away from Yuri who was accompanying the coloring Ocean. While Nanda and Pras go to visit Ayla and Regan at their home.

"You likey? Just take him away from me, I voluntarily let him go for you." Reply Dirga.

Cean laughs. "You still want to go after Nadlyn? Find your real father first where, only your real father can lower your Mammu's selfish attitude." Cibir Cean knows everything about Dirga.

"Mommy shut down all access about my real father."

"Yes, because your father is not a company owner like your step-Father. And your mom's a crazy treasure." Speak Cean with cuek.

They were just as quietly immersed in each other's thoughts.

"If I knew where my real father was, I wouldn't be depressed like this, Cean." Dirga sighed for a moment. "To be grateful to my own Mami and return the favor for giving birth to also raise me and then to be set up like this and it's like a robot creation makes me a person who has no stand." Dirga massaged the base of his nose.

"Is that why you're acting like a father to the Ocean?" Ask Cean to investigate.

Dirga looked towards the still cool ocean coloring with Yuri. "I just want to fill the void of the Ocean. Although the late Papi was only my step-Papi, but he was so warm to me. I just want to be like my step-Papi who can accept me who is not his flesh and blood even though I was still in my Mama's stomach."

Cean fell silent.

"I saw myself in the ocean. The difference is, Nadlyn did not remarry and Nadlyn raised the Ocean without a father figure, which is why I filled the Ocean void until you dared to acknowledge yourself as his Daddy in front of the Ocean." Dirga said again and increasingly made Cean think.

"When are you gonna say you're Sam's Daddy? Or do you really not intend to tell Sam your true self?" Ask Dirga probing.

"You don't know what, you better shut up and don't accuse me of anything." Reply Cean without answering Dirga's question.

"Cean, I still can't berate you. What's really on your mind?" Ask Dirga.

"Samudra is before your eyes, even the end of this Ocean close to you, why still not admit it, Cean? Don't make the Ocean think if you don't want it." Dirga said.

Cean stared intently at Dirga, "You don't see my condition?" Ask Cean a little higher. "You think I'm not ashamed to recognize myself as the Ocean's Daddy by my circumstances?"

Cean rubbed his face rough, "Originally you know, Ga. Every second the Ocean was with me, I so wanted to hug him and say a million apologies for my caliphate to him and acknowledge myself as his Daddy. But what can I do, Ga? Conditions that forced me to remain silent." Wept Cean.

"I don't want to make Samudra ashamed of having a crippled Daddy. I'm trying to recover my condition to deserve to be a proud Daddy for the Ocean." It's Cean again.

Dirga smiled thinly. "I guess you still haven't received it."

Cean shook his head. "I'm guilty of a lot of it."

"What about Nadlyn?" Dirga asked curiously even though his heart was rumbling.

Cean was silent and did not answer.

"You're a fool, Cean. You haven't noticed how you feel about Nadlyn since school." Dirga.

"You like Nadlyn too." Reply Cean.

"But you know Mami doesn't approve of me with her and I'm engaged to her." Dirga said while pointing towards Yuri with her chin.

Cean smiled mockingly. "That's because Mammu doesn't know that Nadlyn is now the ARDA KARYA's highest shareholder."

Dirga scrunched his forehead. "What do you mean?"

"I've given all my shares to Samudra and the authority rights are with Uncle Robi and Nadlyn even though they refused." Answer Cean.

"I think, if your Mami knew Nadlyn owned ARDA KARYA maybe she'd rethink and approve you with Nadlyn." It's Cean again.

Cean was silent as if he was diving into his own thoughts.

"You deserve to be with Nadlyn." Wept Cean. "I don't want to be selfish."

Dirga smiled wryly. "You used to take it off, and if you take it off again, I'm sure you'll be very sorry for Cean."

Cean was silent, even though he realized that he loved Nadlyn, but the shortcomings that existed in him made Cean to step down and not fight for it. Cean thought it impossible to marry Nadlyn and not give her the inner satisfaction of being in bed.

Meanwhile, Samudra and Yuri were cool coloring once familiar and occasionally laughing.

"Aunty, is Aunty going to be Papi's wife?" Ask Samudra while focusing on coloring.

Yuri nodded, "Do you mind? He asked as he gently rubbed the head of the Ocean.

The ocean shook its head. "No, I'm happy. Can I call Aunty Mami?"

Yuri smiled fluffyly, "I love it that you call me that."

The ocean smiled, "Mommy." He said and Yuri smiled even more.

"I thought, Mami doesn't like me like Papi's parents." Samudra. "I was afraid to lose Papi and never see him again."

"You take it easy, I'm not going to forbid your Papi to keep seeing you. What your Papi says, if forever Papi Dirga is still your Papi." Yuri replied, calming the Ocean.

"You want ice cream?" Ask Yuri.

The ocean nodded quickly.

"Take Papi, we're eating ice cream at the nearest cafe."

The ocean cheers "Yeaayy."

And that caught the attention of Dirga and Cean. The ocean ran towards Dirga and Cean.

"Pi.. Mami's taking me to eat ice cream at a nearby cafe."

Dirga scrunched her forehead while Cean held back his laughter.

"Mommy? Whose mom?" Ask Dirga.

"Mami Yuri, Papi's future wife. Shouldn't I call her Mommy?" Ask the Ocean which makes sense.

"Oh my God..." Mumbled Dirga.

"Your engagement is geeky but it's gercep as well." Cean's whispers were somewhat inaudible to the Ocean.

"Ayoo Pii's.. Mommy's gonna come pick me up." Ocean Whine.

"How about Uncle?" Tanya Dirga tried to refuse.

Dirga is not reluctant to bring Samudra, but if it is with Yuri, he is reluctant to go together. What more if having to hear Samudra summon Yuri with the call of Mami, making Dirga horrified, what if other people who see them as a happy little family? Dirga doesn't want that.

"Go, I'll take a break." Cean said to stare at her smile."

"You intentionally?" Tanya Dirga.

"You have to practice and remember not to fight in front of a child, it's not good, Ga." Cean said smiling triumphantly.
