. After Syifa died, Aldian felt a very empty void. How not, Aldi must take care of his only child who is still a child alone. Although she still has a mother, Reifan is Aldi's responsibility.
. Aldian Mahendra's. Young widower one boy with a charm that catches the attention of every woman. The charming atmosphere makes Aldi an idol and many parents who want to match Aldi with his daughter. Several times Aldi got a request from Dewi to meet some of his friends who want to be Aldi's companion. Although Dewi knew how Aldi was to women other than Syifa and Avril, but Dewi told him to respect and not want to offend them.
However, every time Aldi goes on a blind date, he always blatantly refuses for various reasons. Including his son, Reifan.
Aldi sows flowers on a pile of soil with a tombstone bearing the name of his beloved wife. Today, exactly 3 years Syifa passed away, and exactly Reifan birthday anyway. Either Aldian should be happy or sad. Every birthday of his son, he feels very bad. Aldi always wondered that if Syifa were still there, maybe his happiness would be perfect. And he gets more depressed every time he sees the harmony of his ex-lover's little family.
Aldi went up and down every mound of land lined up beside the small path he passed.
"You're going to Avril's house?" Tanya Bagas who was always beside Aldi.
"No. I want-"
"Come on Al.. will you be up to when you're dissolved in your grief?" Bagas interrupted quickly squinting Aldi's eyes that might suddenly be upset by it.
"Leave me alone." He passed to the steering chair. Bagas quickly enters the car before Aldi is really angry at him.
. At Avril's house, there are several small children running around cheerfully in the balloon-drenched living room and some typical birthday decorations equipped with a cake that is variously shaped.
"Dad... mimi.." he came up to Alvi and asked for the glass that Alvi was holding.
"Can't. It's cold." Alvi replied, distancing her hand from Reifan who kept trying to reach for the glass.
"Hayoooo cry.." sneered Reno then held Reifan in a cringe.
"Papa... Eifan ausss.." his whine again still trying to reach the glass from Alvi. Seeing Reifan who was trying hard to ask from her, Alvi went up and took water for Reifan.
"Here I drink." Alvi spread out her arms to take Reifan from Reno. But Reifan even stretched his hand on Avril who was just sitting on the sofa.
"Mommy.." he shouted, making Avril move again.
"What dear?"
"Mommy. will mimi." Hearing that, Avril took water from Alvi and was about to give it to Reifan.
"Drink by yourself." Avril let Reifan drink it himself. Reno is overwhelmed by the fact that Reifan quickly finished the glass. Alvi looks up at Avril who is firmly educating Reifan who is not even her biological child.
"Are you so thirsty?" Ask Reno seriously. But Reifan asked to be dropped and returned to play with Ravendra.
"Aldi's not here?" Dea asked along with Avril's daydream, who happened to think about where Aldi was now.
"Let's see De. I don't know." Avril replied uninspired.
"Hey... Avil.." said Demira half-shouting as she entered the house.
"Hey. Dem...." Avril did not lose loudly greeting Demira.
"Where's Noah?" Tanya Alvi with a cetus.
"There's no.." Demira replied pointing out. Alvi frowned at Noah who had just entered, but was already in the crowd of children.
"Cih. But why are those kids afraid of me?" Inner Alvi screeched while turning her face away.
"No. Maybe just tired. And it's a little dizzy." Avril replied throwing her sweet smile.
"If you're tired, just rest." Alvi said touching Avril's forehead, cheeks and neck that did feel warm. "You're feverish. I told you not to stay up. Reifan let me take care of you." Alvi let out a heavy breath.
"You've only been married a few months, but it's been like 3 years. Having a child before marriage is good for you, Alvi. You can learn to be a good father." Ejek Noah looked at Reifan with a fixed and then turned to look at Alvi who was looking at him very sharply.
"So you said I was bad? Hey, it's only natural that I'm a bad guy, I'm a stepdad here." Reply Alvi held his hand and went to work and took medicine for Avril.
"You know the cold master fever cure?" Ejek Noah again. Alvi just glared in response to Noah's taunts.
"Mommy? A sickt?" Reifan asked who ran over to Avril and looked at her with a very adorable look. His innocence made Avril feel even more affectionate towards Reifan, and it was as if she did not want to part for a second with him.
"No. mommy doesn't hurt." Avril answered, grabbed Reifan and kissed him on the cheek.
"Mommy... daddy?" Ask later. Reifan turned to the door and ran and stared blankly at the courtyard. Reifan looked disappointed as he turned his face to Avril and then looked back out. Avril really can't persuade Aldi to be next to Reifan when Reifan's birthday. Aldi will feel increasingly lost Syifa if celebrating Reifan's birthday on the same day.
. After a long while, the sound of a car entering the grounds of the Alvi residence. Reifan enthusiastically ran towards the terrace and called out to Aldian cheerfully.
"Daddy.... daddy.." he said with great pleasure. But Reifan was silent when he saw Bagas alone who came with a gift.
"Daddy.." Reifan's whine turned into a loud cry. Soon Avril approached Reifan and calmed him down to stop crying.
"Mommy... daddy.. want daddy.." whimper again hugged Avril and her crying gets louder.
"Yes daddy's busy, baby." Lirih Avril gently rubbed Reifan's back which was incessantly crying.
"Gas..Where is Aldi?" Avril turned to stare intently at Bagas.
"The aldi...." Bagas turned his head back and returned Avril's gaze nervously as he did not know what to answer.
"Bagas.." delik Avril who began to be upset with Bagas' attitude.
"Aldi came home Avil.." replied Bagas no less upset.
"Ishh... Until when is he? He forgot about Reifan? Reifan is his son. Although there is Alvi who loves Reifan. Still the affection that Reifan's biological father needs most."
"And why are you even scolding me Avil?" Gerrutu Bagas who followed Avril's steps entered the house.
"I like to wonder. What's he thinking? What kind of father is he? The child needs affection from him, but he ignores it. He thought this little boy could understand why he was like that? I also lost my mother, and a father should be there to strengthen. Not leaving without reason. He lost Syifa. Same with my gas. He thinks he's the only one who feels lost?" Avril continued to babble and did not feel a clear circle slowly flowing down her cheeks.
"This Reifan is still a child. he should understand. Did he ever think that Syifa left because her love for Aldi was greater. He willingly swapped his life to let a little angel he wanted after his marriage to stay alive? When did he grow up?"
"Avril stop." Tegur Alvi in a soft voice.
"But Al..."
"I said stop it!" Firmly with a high voice silenced Avril instantly.
