After that day, Julian no longer followed her or bothered her, Vania secretly felt grateful but she still felt disappointment. He already knew that Julian was not serious about what he said because then Vania was not surprised when the next day, then the next day again and again Julian did not look for him anymore
"I told you also what, he had found his senses again" Vania exhaled, the tightness of her chest remained there, Vania realized it was deep in her heart that she was indeed happy because she knew the man loved her and without realizing it, her subconscious expected all of that to be true, then when all that was not true, it was not true, Vania felt the pain in her chest. Vania opened the door of her house and stepped in with a shammer
"Mom I'm home" Silence greeted Vania at home, Vania opened her shoes and walked in by dragging her feet.
"Mother? You home?" Vania stopped her steps and then fell silent to see someone on the floor of the rest room as well as the guest room. No, not someone more precisely is a baby girl playing with wooden blocks scattered on the floor, there is a teddy bear accompanying her to play.
The baby girl turned to him and then turned to her toy again
"Raah.." The baby girl pointed at her toy block, not what she wanted. Vania sat herself looking at the baby girl, her face changed when she was a baby but she could not forget the bond between her and the baby
"Sierra..?" his whispers..
"Raa.." the baby girl pointed at herself and then another block of wood. Vania drags her seat to get closer to the baby, but it seems that the baby does not like being approached by Vania and crawls away.
Vania stopped approaching him, tears welling up in her eyes, having longed for and kept dreaming Sierra finally she could see her daughter again?, well even though Sierra didn't know her, Vania still felt a great happiness when she met her daughter again. Vania wiped away the tears that fell on her cheeks and took out a green wooden block
"Why are you here?" Vania finally realized why Sierra was there, did Julian not want Sierra anymore and handed it over to Vania?. The baby girl approached Vania because her toy was held, Sierra reached out his hand asking for the toy beam back
"Well.sorry.." Vania handed the beam to Sierra. Sierra quickly put back the blocks of his toys in the arrangement that he had built
"What are you building? Can I help you?"
"Tiidaa. daa.." The baby girl moved her hand left and right, rejecting Vania's offer. Vania laughed as she wiped away the tears that had fallen back on her cheeks. Really, is he really dreaming now?.
Vania could only sit quietly watching Sierra play, she was not allowed to touch anything that belonged to the baby girl, obviously Sierra did not like any strangers touching her toys.
As time went on, the baby girl grew bored, she rubbed her eyes and whined. Vania fell silent, what should she do? Vania did give birth to Sierra but the problem of taking care of the baby or persuading him Vania was not experienced
"You why?" ask Vania worriedly
Sierra started crying and called someone. Vania tries to reach out her hand to hold Sierra but the baby dodges and hits Vania's hand
"How is this..?"
"She was just sleepy" Julian's soft voice recited from behind Vania's back, Vania twisting her body seeing Julian smiling at Vania.
Julian sat down next to Vania and stretched out his hand holding Sierra. The baby girl was instantly silent while leaning her head on Julian's boat, tasting her own finger and closing her eyes. Seeing that sight touched Vania, Julian really knew how to take care of a baby. And Vania is relieved, that her decision was not wrong, Sierra looks happy, fat and all her needs are met
"She still feels foreign to you, but will get used to it" Vania looked at Julian in confusion
"Why did you bring him here?"
"Why..? you don't want to meet her?" Vania shook her head
"I mean, why did you bring us together?"
"My dear Vania, because you're her mother, and Sierra is your daughter"
"Sierra..? you named him Sierra..? why..?"
"Because you call him Sierra.."
"But I don't think you heard him, I called him secretly"
"I didn't hear it, Uncle Norman heard it" Vania was again overwhelmed by feelings of haru. So Julian does care about her? Named her daughter by a name that Vania often whispered to her
"That's my grandmother's name"
"Oo really.?, what a pretty name.." Vania smiled
"Thank you.." Julian returned the smile and turned his head towards Sierra
"No. Let him sleep"
"Slowly she would recognize her own mother" Julian stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Vania's hair
"You're coming with me, yeah"
"Where..?"
"My house.. Your mother was there too"
"Mother? My God, what did you tell him?"
"Relax.I'm not saying you're pregnant because of the money for the cost of the operation"
"Then..?"
"I told you, you disappeared back then because you were pregnant, we were supposed to get married but because of a misunderstanding I got angry and took the baby away"
"Taking on the antagonist role of your own story?" vania Syndicate. Julian shrugged his shoulders, not caring about the innuendo
"So, you want to come with me, right?" Vania glanced at Sierra who was sound asleep on Julian's shoulders, then looked at Julian's seriously turned face. Vania nods her head, thinking Julian may not be serious about what she says, so Vania tries to believe what Julian has to say to her.
Julian opened the passenger door for Vania with his next hand and his next hand still hugging Sierra. After Vania agrees to go with him Julian immediately invites the girl to his house, he does not want Vania to change her mind if she linger
"Vania.." call Julian, when the girl's about to get in the car
"I can't drive with Sierra, can you carry him?"
"But..What if he wakes up and sees me?"
"It's okay, as long as I'm around her she won't cry" Vania hesitates to take Sierra from Julian's sling, but she can't deny her already very urgent desire to embrace Sierra. But can he carry Sierra?. Seeing the hesitation on Vania's face, Julian also gave his support
"You can do it, you're the mother" Vania nodded her head and accepted Sierra into her arms, Julian put Sierra's head against Vania's shoulder and Vania put her hand under the pan*** Sierra to keep the baby girl in her position, she turned to Julian asking if the way to carry her was right?. Julian nodded his head answering that unreadable question.
After Vania got into the car, Julian followed her and drove the car while occasionally glancing at Vania who really enjoyed her activities that were carrying Sierra. Vania rubbed her hands against Sierra's head and stroked her small back
"One year and four months" whispered Vania
"Eum.., he's been that big"
"When did he start walking?"
"Circa january yesterday"
"Has he been able to speak..?" Julian laughed
"Just be able to say. Anr.. Raa. and no.." Julian turned towards Vania who was frowning in confusion then continued his sentence
"The papa means he called me, Raa it means he said his name, or was pointing at the item that belonged to him. When he doesn't like someone bothering him to play or what he wants is wrong. Mama always felt helpless when she took what Sierra wanted wrong" Vania smiled, leaning her head against Sierra's shoulder
"She's adorable" Vania closed her eyes feeling the warmth of Sierra's body in her arms, hugging Sierra as if it felt very comfortable and she was filled with happiness. She could finally hug her daughter again
"Very" Julian smiled at Vania. Vania opened her eyes and turned towards Julian she smiled as she thanked Julian.
