Six years later, New York, at Sea's family home.
The sudden noise of breaking through Mike's bedroom door made him wake up from his sleep.
“Uncle let's wake up, you're late for the office.” Said the five-year-old little girl jumping around on Mike's bed.
“Oh...Come on Lily,” upset Mike on the little girl.
“Uncle let's get up now, did you forget that today is the anniversary of Aunt Miki's death?” lily sat down next to Mike who was lying down.
Mike put on his matted face without a smile when he heard what Lily told him.
“Uncle, are you crying?”
“Of course not,”
“Uncle sure?” ask Lily while raising one of her eyebrows up.
“Em...as you can see,” said Mike.
“Mami..see Uncle Mike is crying.” cried Lily at his mother.
“Lily, what are you saying? Uncle doesn't cry, so stop yelling like that at your mom.” Mike said, sitting up from his sleep.
“No, before uncle gets up and bath Lily won't stop. Mami...” cried Lily back.
“Stop Lily, uncle wake up now okay.” Said Mike.
“Ya, quickly get ready now otherwise, Mami who will force Uncle.” Threat Lily.
“OK, Uncle go take a shower first and you quickly tell your Mami if uncle will be down in a minute.”
“Oke ready uncle.” Lily answered while saluting Mike.
Mike got off his bed and stepped into the bathroom, saying. “Mother and child are the same, both are very annoying.” Groused Mike.
“Uncle, I can listen to you..” said Lily who was in bed.
“Ops..sorry, Uncle thought you were gone, you annoying little girl.” Mike said, closing the bathroom door.
“Pamannnn!!” yelled Lily who was upset.
Mike opened the bathroom door again and said. “Oh yes, don't forget to close the door, thank you.” Mike closed the door to his room.
“What ever...” Lily throws her tongue out then she goes out of Mike's room without closing the door.
***
Sea's extended family had already gathered at the dining table, only Mike had not occupied his seat.
“Lily, where's your Uncle?” ask Lucy.
“Say Uncle, he will be down soon.” replied Lily by worrying.
Lucy breathes in annoyance, and each morning they have to put off their breakfast just to wait for Mike.
“Honey try to follow him in his room,” Lucy's plea to Joe.
“No need,” Timpal Mike who went down the stairs.
“Why have you been down so long?” exclaims the upset Lucy.
Mike just shrugged his shoulders in response to a question from Lucy, he was lazy to answer it because if he answered then the debate between them would never be finished. In order to keep his mood, Mike chose to be quiet and sat in his dining chair quietly.
After Mike sat down and it turns out he still did not escape the babble of his family even though it escaped Lucy now Darwin who made him have to listen to boring talk. Every morning Mike had to listen to Darwin talk about the woman he wanted to marry.
“Mike, Daddy has arranged a blind date for you again with the woman from the airline company's family of owners. So please you come on time yes, today is 8pm at Santa Monica State Beach.” Darwin said as he bribed the bacon into his mouth.
“Dad, Mike has said repeatedly if Mike does not want to be in a match. Daddy will know if Mike still does not want to marry again.”
“Until when are you going to be like this? Your grandfather died two years ago and do you want to see your grandfather not calm up there because you still don't want to remarry just the mistake your grandfather once made?” Darwin.
“Dad, Mike please do not under the late grandfather in our conversation is okay.” Mike said as he put his spoon and fork on the table.
“Mike, what father-in-law says is true.” Timpal Lucy's.
Mike turned to Lucy with disappointed eyes. She is disappointed that Lucy supports what Darwin wants from her.
“Grandpa. Lily does not agree if Uncle remarries, if Uncle remarries what about Aunt Miki?” Lily tried to defend her Uncle.
“Lily, you are indeed a loyal Uncle's nephew unlike those who force Uncle.” Mike smiled at Lily sitting in front of him.
“Lily do not interfere in adult affairs, you are still too small for all of this.” Lucy timpal.
Lily stood on her chair and ruffled her waist saying. “Lily is not a child, Lily is old enough to understand everything adults are talking about here.”
“Good Girl, come here Lily let Uncle hug you.” Said Mike who spread both his hands.
Lily was startled and frightened when she saw the angry Darwin. She immediately hugged Joe who was sitting next to her. “Daddy” says Lily.
“Joe, please you under Lily go from here.” Darwin Pinta.
“Good Dad,”
Joe immediately moved away from the dining table while holding Lily, as well as Lucy, he also went to die at the dinner table to give Darwin and Mike a chance to talk seriously.
“Dad, until when are you going to force Mike this way?”
“Until you want to date blindly and remarry.” Answer Darwin.
“OK well, Mike wants to go on a blind date, but if you get married give Mike time to think about it again.”
“Oke agree, remember don't forget today in Santa Monica at 8pm you have to come on time.” Darwin said, smiling at Mike.
“Dad, why should I meet in Santa Monica?”
“Because right now the woman who is going on a blind date with you is there, she is currently on vacation at Santa Monica State Beach.” Answer Darwin.
Mike gave his long breath a glance and replied. “All right Mike understands.” Then Mike got up from his dining chair.
“Where do you want to go?” ask Darwin.
“Mike is late, soon there will be an important meeting at the office and Mike must leave now.” replied Mike while cleaning up the leftovers on the corner of his lips.
“Well get your work done quickly today, and after that you leave for Santa Monica as soon as possible.”
“Good Dad,”
Mike got better and walked to the exit and when Mike was at Lily's exit stopped him. “Uncle..wait Lily for a minute.” Lily shouted as she ran towards Mike.
Mike who saw the little girl running towards him immediately crouched down to align their height. “What's the matter dear?” yells.
“Uncle, haven't you forgotten me?” exclaim Lily.
“Of course not, come let Uncle hug you before leaving.” Mike said as he hugged the little girl tightly and kissed her forehead gently, then Mike let go of her embrace of the little girl.
“Uncle remember, never marry another woman, you look perfect if you stay faithful waiting for Aunt Miki. Only he can be Uncle love.” Lily said that made Mike smile.
“OK well Uncle understood, it's time for Uncle to leave. Goodbye dear Lily, Uncle go first.” Mike said as he stood towards the car.
“Please Sir,” Fred said as he opened the car door for Mike.
“Thank you Mr. Fred.” Mike said as he entered the car and lowered the windshield. “Bye..Lily darling.” Mike waved his hand to Lily.
“Bye..Uncle, I Love you.” Lily replied to Mike's hand with a cheerful smile.
“Part now Mr. Fred.” Mike's orders.
“Good Mr.”
Then Fred's secretary runs his car away from the Sea family residence, after exiting the gate Mike's face instantly changes drastically. At first the face could still smile and now turned grim as it held a deep sadness. Because today is the day the tragedy of the accident happened even six years, which made Mike's mood return as it was on that day.
Drrr.
Mike's phone is vibrating, written on Mike's phone screen if Lucy calls him.
“Halo..Lucy,”.
“I know if you're sad right now, I'm sorry Mike forced you. You have to be able to change Mike, your future is still long and Miki will be happy if you see you can be happy.” Lucy said at the end there.
While Mike just kept quiet and did not answer the words of Lucy. Actually at this time Mike does not want to force himself to change at the moment on his sad day, all Mike wants is to think calmly considering his memories with Miki in his past.
“Alright, I close the phone first.” Mike said as he opened his voice.
“Wait a minute Mike,”
“What else is it?” ask Mike.
“I just wanted to say, enjoy your day in Santa Monica tonight. Bye Mike.” Lucy said she immediately disconnected, and Mike only put on his grim face after Lucy hung up.
I wish what you told me Lucy I could do, but I can't. I'm sorry Lucy let you down, because I can't forget your sister at all. Inner Mike.
