SECOND FATHER

Eps 17's

I yawned my body wriggling and my eyes opened as the sound of my stomach teased the comfort of my sleep. I felt the phone lying on the bed with the empty number one two five on the lighted screen.

" It's so hungry!".

I murmured and rubbed the stomach that had just been rumbling.

I walked on my way to sleep after being satisfied with shedding tears and now the clothes I wear are still the same, meaning I can't change my clothes.

Did mom see me? Did you knock on my bedroom door ?day . Did you care about my condition?.

The question came from inside his brain as he stepped out of the room after changing clothes without rinsing his body. How could I dare take a midnight shower like this I would shiver and my body would have a fever.

I saw the food on the table a plate of sambal that had been fused with the meat that might have been my ration. I didn't think long and took the rice in the rice cooker and took it to my room . Not afraid of being discovered but I'm afraid to disturb the sleep of all the creatures in this house.

Glek glek glek .

Three sips of water in a glass became a way transmitter of food that was in my throat , then I returned it to the kitchen and washed it slowly .

" Angel?"

" Oh my heart !".

My shout was a little loud when mom suddenly came and it made me very surprised.

" What are these nights doing in the kitchen?".

Ask the mother who may already know what my needs are but choose this topic so that our conversation will be longer.

" I ate Mom."

My answer was short and I heard my mother's breath was a little heavy .

" sister?"

Call mom to me but I don't want to answer.

" Angelina ?".

Some more! Mom called me and I stopped when my name was fully pronounced.

" I'm sorry your dad was this afternoon! I didn't mean to say that maybe I had a lot of thoughts so I got carried away while talking."

I looked up and looked at my mother's face without blinking.

" Is it only parents who can be understood if they have a lot of thoughts or are tired Mom? And are only parents able to do whatever they want without thinking about our younger feelings ?"

" Open it so Angel."

" Mother Angel is tired of taking a break tomorrow and has to go to school."

I answered quickly before mother finished her sentence, Sentences that sounded so that I could succumb and understand all their circumstances as people who have more age than me.

I went back in and closed in a quick motion without looking back at the mother who was either still there or had left as soon as I said so.

I threw again the body that actually had no sleepiness on the bed and chose to complete a task that I had not had time to do this afternoon.

" You're different than usual!"

Riska said then re-entered the room after the cup was filled with water requested by the baby after talking a little name led to a subtle rejection from his first child.

Aulia is now whining because of her slightly unpleasant body, her body was hot from the afternoon and now Riska and Dani are taking turns to look after the baby.

" dear? It's a drink first ! ."

Said Riska feeding the cup with cold water on Aulia and staring at the face of Dani who was fast asleep after waking up and now sleeping so soundly.

" It's Mom."

Aulia said softly and spread her head over Riska's lap.

Riska gently rubbed the fine hair belonging to Aulia, re-remembered with the past where Angel felt the same way.

" Did Mom just shut you up too much, baby? What lack of attention Mom always gives to you hmm?. "

Inner Riska spoke as a shadow suddenly came from the look on the face of the girl who had just spoken so briefly with her.

" **Sometimes we as parents feel we've given enough attention but what's really needed is a touch that seems more soothing."

Greetings 💌 have a great day 🥰**
