"Is this a pretty Aunt Cake?" when she woke up from her sleep this morning Star smiled at her favorite chocolate cake already on the nightstand.
"Is a Beautiful Aunt here?" As soon as the blankets were pulled, Star grabbed the jar and headed down to meet Omma and her cool Papa enjoying breakfast.
"Star, are you awake?" Asked Andryani who saw her grandson already running and active again this morning.
Byan turned to look at Star at this time with a jar in his arms making him smile happily. "It turns out Star is that happy,"
"Where's Beautiful Auntie?" Star's eyes scanned every corner of the house, but she could not find Mara there.
"Beautiful Aunt?" Andryani widened her eyes towards Byan. But Byan just shook his shoulders just a sign of not understanding.
"Yes, where's Omma?" whinek Star.
"Omma doesn't see a Beautiful Aunt here" replied Andryani.
Byan who knew that his daughter was so expecting the presence of Mara could only be silent and feel increasingly guilty. Guilty of blocking closeness between them. If things were like this, he just understood how much an Asamara meant to Star.
Byan got up from where he approached Star, he took a squatting position by holding both of Star's hands.
"Star, Beautiful Aunt is not here" said Byan softly. But Star responded to the remark by singing her lips.
"Beautiful Aunt has not been able to meet Star, Aunt is still busy working," continued Byan by continuing to look at Star's moody face.
"Papa lied!" Shouting Star.
"Star, Papa ..."
"Papa lied," Star whined to tears.
Andryani who saw it also became more dizzy. He did not know how to deal with the spoiled attitude of his grandson.
He also felt even more annoyed at Byan, because Star was acting like this.
"Star, after Aunt is not busy we will meet her," Byan does not know how to comfort her crying daughter, so she has an idea to meet Mara.
Star immediately rubbed his cheek, he looked at Byan's face as if he was looking for honesty.
"What promise?"
Byan becomes clouded by his own words, how can he meet Mara while Mara still does not want to talk to him at this time. But how else would he do for Star. He also wants Star to recover from her illness.
"Papa promise!" Byan finally made that promise.
"But Star has to eat and get well first" Byan continued with his guilt. I don't know when he's going to meet Mara, the most important thing is Star calm down first.
Star nodded her head, she had no choice. For the sake of meeting Mara, someone she just knew but was able to make her feel comfortable.
Byan and Andryani were a little relieved after seeing Star want to eat this morning. All of that was caused by Mara who made herself enthusiastic and more eager to recover.
"Morning ..." The voice of a woman walked in and approached Andryani with a few tentacles in her hand.
"Kessy?" Andryani smiled kindly, so early he had a guest.
"Hi Tant," Kessy kissed Andryani's left right cheek, showing her familiarity in front of Byan.
Byan who saw it was furious, it turns out Kessy did not have a sense of deterrence. Even though he had given her a big warning the other day, Kessy still came to his house.
"Tant, this is a gift from Mama," Kessy handed a sizable paper bag to Andryani.
"Well, Alhamdulillah. Thank you, Kessy," Andryani was so happy when she got a gift from Kessy's mother who was none other than Diana's schoolmate.
"Tama-sama Tant, Oh yes this is a gift for little girl Auntie," Kessy now leads to a chair that is being sat by Star and gives a medium paper bag to her. But the good intentions he did did not get a good response as expected.
Star did not comment on Kessy's remarks, but continued to eat breakfast the next morning. This time it was still the same as the beginning of Kessy meeting him, Star was still indifferent to him.
Byan who saw Star's behavior towards Kessy could only remain silent. According to him, the feeling of a little boy was strong, he knew that if Kessy approached him it was not as smooth as Mara.
"Omma, Papa, Star is done. Star wants to go to the room, "Star left the dining table and did not forget he also brought a setoples chocolate cake in his hand.
After Star left, Andryani spoke up. "Kessy, sorry for Star's attitude. Please understand because he is still sick," said Andryani rubbed Kessy's shoulder.
"No problem, Tant, the little boy is moody," Kessy also revealed her smile, the smile she forced. Because his heart was so upset that it received a second rejection from Star. It's okay that he failed to get close to Star today, his intention here was to repay Byan for her the other day.
"Oh, yes By, this is something for you," this time the small black paper bag he handed in front of Byan by putting on his friendly face.
Kessy still acted as if nothing had happened to her the other day for Byan's actions. He was still acting sweet as if he did not feel deterred.
"Byan, say thank you. It was a gift from Aunt Diana," said Andryani staring at Byan with an eye code, she did not want if Byan ignored Kessy like Star.
"Thanks" Byan finished his breakfast.
Hearing Byan's words, Kessy's heart became delighted. He felt victorious because Byan could not escape him today.
"What I said, there will be no man who can refuse me. Including you Fabyan," Kessy muttered inwardly with pride.
"Thanks to Aunt Diana," Byan left the dinner table. Because lingering here would only make him even more annoyed at Kessy's sickening behavior.
Just now his heart flowered because he felt victorious, now Byan has dropped it again. It makes Kessy even more upset, but he does not want to give up. His main goal was to get Byan to bend his knee to himself.
"Take a look at you, Byan!" Kessy growled with a tight grip on her fingers. But he could only grieve Byan from the heart.
"Sorry Kessy, Byan's a tough guy" Andryani breaks the tension between them. He tries to make sense of Kessy for Byan's attitude towards him just now.
"Kessy already memorized the attitude of Byan, Tant. I will not take heart, I know Byan is a good person," Kessy praised Byan in front of Andryani as if she was so familiar with Byan's figure.
Andryani is proud of the patience and understanding of a Kessy. She knows that Kessy is a good woman. His initial intention was to make Byan close to Kessy. But at the moment the confusion was engulfing her, it was all due to Mara's presence in their midst.
"Kessy, let's sit down with Auntie for breakfast" Andryani asked Kessy.
"Other times Tant, Kessy should go to the office this morning, subtly reject Kessy.
"Oh, so. Did Kessy get in the car by herself or was the driver there?" Ask Andryani.
"Kessy took a Tant taxi, it just so happened that Kessy's car was in the workshop,"
Shortly after that Byan appeared, he wanted to say goodbye to Uminya to go to the office.
"Umi, Byan to the office ..."
"Well, coincidences. All you take Kessy, yes," I don't know from where, which is clear Andryani still wants the closeness between Byan and Kessy to walk. He put aside Mara's problem, because Andryani felt that Byan hated Mara even though Star liked her so much. At least the existence of Kessy can make Byan's heart become a little lethargic to women.
"W-what?" Byan's eyes were bulging, he did not expect that his Umi request was so troublesome and increasingly made the irritation in him peak.
Kessy smiled at Andryani's suggestion, actually this is also her wish. His mind never runs out to prank a Byan.
"Umi, no need. I'm afraid I'll trouble Byan," Kessy pretended to reject Andryani's suggestion.
"Ah, Byan is not bothered. You just come early in the morning can and must be very bothered. Byan can also just drive to the office. Besides, your office is in the same direction, isn't it, Byan?"
Byan only harbored his frustration in front of Andryani, he knew clearly that this was just Kessy's wits.
"Umi, Byan can't. Because this morning did not go directly to the office," refused Byan.
"Ck! You just deliver Kessy first, Umi is not good with Aunt Diana," said Andryani half whispered.
"But Umi-"
"Byan, come on ..." Andryani did not accept any rejection from Byan. He still insists on bringing Byan closer to Kessy.
"Ck!" Byan was upset. He also walked outside.
"Kessy, be careful" Andryani said softly.
"Thanks Tant" Kessy followed Byan from behind to his car parked in the garage.
"Sir Kurdi" called Byan to the driver who used to drive his son to school.
"Yes, sir," replied Mr. Kurdi who was wiping the car after washing it.
"Bring this car!" Byan handed over the keys to Mr. Kurdi.
"Okay, sir,"
"Turn this woman to where she's supposed to be!" Byan commands with eyes that stare intently at Kessy. The look of dislike that was thrown by Byan also made Kessy understand the meaning.
"W-what?" Kessy was surprised, not expecting Byan to turn him back by ordering a driver to drive her.
While Byan picked up his red sport bike, he drove the bike quickly.
"Dyan!!!!!!" Shouted Kessy in annoyance.
