Sharing Love - A Cold Husband

CHAPTER 67 ~ On Escape ~

Rivaldo joked with his daughter, seeing the handsome man's affection gushing at Keisya. The sight hypnotized Frisca's eyes and involuntarily smiled at the two's behavior.

"What about your stomach has it healed?" tanya Rivaldo suddenly turned his head towards Frisca.

"It's hard, it's like that. Sometimes the pain suddenly relapses, ", explains Frisca soberly.

"What pain actually?" ask Rivaldo.

Frisca shook her head.

"Not seen the doctor?" ask Rivaldo.

Frisca was silent, a moment later the man came to his senses after seeing Frisca and Zefano. Rivaldo thought Frisca would not be able to pay for her medical check-up.

"If you want to accept my help, maybe I can give a small fee to see a doctor" said Rivaldo.

"No need" Frisca refused quickly.

"Why? Don't you worry about your illness?" ask Rivaldo.

"It's no use" replied Frisca Ketus.

Rivaldo was astonished by Frisca's attitude as if he did not care about her pain. The woman again said ketus, Frisca like not want the problem of the disease to be revealed again.

After checking and knowing what the disease is then? If there is no cost to treatment, Inner Frisca.

"Oh yes sorry, Om can not leave the store for long, fearing that there are buyers so leave because there is no one serving," Rivaldo told Zefano and immediately stood up.

"We'll be leaving soon!" frisca said quickly.

Rivaldo who wanted to step outside stopped his steps and turned back to Frisca and Zefano.

"Why rush? If there is no place to go you can stay here until whenever you want" said Rivaldo offer.

"But we don't have the money to rent a room" Frisca said.

"I didn't rent this room to you. Just offer than this empty room anyway spelled out room also can not, more like a warehouse. If you have no purpose, it's okay to use this room as you like" said Rivaldo.

Zefano turned his head and smiled at Frisca. The woman was silent and still could not decide Rivaldo's offer.

Linger here what's the point? But right now people are definitely looking for Zefano. Zefran and the woman must have reported to the police and Zefran's men must have been looking for us. Did they know that I brought Zefano? Haah, here there is no television to hear the news, Frisca's inner self felt confused.

"How's it?" ask Rivaldo.

"Alright," replied Frisca at last.

After all, this room faces directly outside the house. If I want to leave I can just run away from here, Inner Frisca.

The woman looked around the room she was in. Exactly a pavilion is connected to the main house where the front has been made into a shop and the inside is the middle room of the house.

There is a door to enter the middle of the house from where Rivaldo comes to bring fried rice for Frisca and Zefano. The woman finally decided to temporarily stay in the house and planned to temporarily hide inside the pavilion room.

What am I supposed to do now? Suddenly returning Zefano was funny, no! I'm really gonna ask for a ransom. It is wrong of yourself why he neglects to take care of his child. If that's not just me, someone else can kidnap Zefano, Frisca's inner self.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, Keisya appeared behind the door.

"Zeno we're playing yuk!" take Keisya.

Zefano immediately turned his head towards Frisca, the woman nodded in permission. Zefano went straight into the interior of the house. In the middle of the room various toys are arranged on the carpet. The room felt quite spacious because there was not much furniture there.

Keisya offers a variety of educational games such as puzzles, colorful blocks with various shapes and others. After picking up a doll and Zefano picking up a Yoyo, Keisya takes Zefano to his grocery store.

"We play while keeping the shop!" take Keisya.

"Om Valdo where?" ask Zefano.

"I don't know, he said he wanted to go for a while. Zeno wants to accompany Keisya to the store?" ask the beautiful little girl.

"Kneel!" zefano replied quickly.

They sit on the front porch of the store with a long wooden bench. Zefano was immediately busy trying to play Yoyo.

"Zeno can play Yoyo?" asked Keisya while combing his puppet hair.

"It can't, it's still learning" Zefano said.

"If so learn to play Yoyo with Papa. Papa is smart to play Yoyo," said Keisya.

"Oh yeah? But Papa Keisya's gonna be busy guarding the store?" ask Zefano.

"Not always busy, if there is no buyer Papa like to play here with Keisya," said the little girl.

Zefano nodded then returned busy trying the game that he had never tried it. Shortly thereafter Rivaldo arrived on his motorcycle. He smiled when he saw the two boys playing.

"Zeno again accompany Keisya keep the shop?" ask Rivaldo.

"Yes Om," Zefano replied with a smile.

"Here, Om bought Zeno's change of clothes. Just a cheap shirt suit but good to wear at home. Zeno can shower and change clothes to be fresh" said Rivaldo.

Zefano hesitated to accept the parcel that Rivaldo had given him. But the man nodded so that the boy would accept it. Finally the boy took a package of clothes complete with underwear.

Zefano also did not have the heart to refuse the goodwill of Rivaldo who deliberately left his shop to buy a change of clothes for him. Rivaldo takes Zefano to the bathroom.

"Zeno bathe alone or bathed?" ask Rivaldo.

"Bring yourself!" Zefano.

"Smart kid! Inside already have some toiletries ready for Zeno. Happy shower!" rivaldo said with a smile and closed the bathroom door.

The man went into his room and opened the closet and took some of his wife's clothes. He also searched for his wife's new underwear and took her to the room where Frisca and Zefano were staying.

"This is my wife's shirt, you can wear it for a change of clothes. I think the size fits with you, Zeno is now taking a shower. Later you can shower and change after Zeno," Rivaldo said after Frisca allowed him to enter the pavilion.

"Why are his clothes lent to me? Isn't your wife angry that her shirt is worn by a stranger?" frisca asked who suddenly only realized since earlier did not see a mature woman in the house.

"I think he'd be happy if he knew his clothes could still be useful. He can't be angry anymore because he's been gone for two more years" Rivaldo said.

"Go? Just leaving her husband and daughter?" ask Frisca wonder.

"Yes, but it is not our will it is His will. We can only resign" said Rivaldo with his index finger facing up.

"You mean he's been..,"

"Died" said Rivaldo with a smile but a forced smile.

Frisca was stunned and looked at the clothes of the house that Rivaldo placed at the end of the bed. Complete with a package containing underwear. Rivaldo did not see Frisca and Zefano bring anything to believe that the two did not have a change of clothes.

At first the man thought to buy a new one for Frisca but remembered in his house there are still many clothes left by his wife who is still well maintained and neatly arranged. Rivaldo finally decides to give it to Frisca.

"What's? No, let me wash it myself" said Frisca.

"It's okay, I just helped put it in the washing machine" Rivaldo said.

"Yes, let me do it myself" said Frisca, who did not want her clothes touched by the man.

Rivaldo nodded despite hesitation. After Zefano finished bathing Frisca also changed to the bathroom.

Frisca stood dumbstruck in front of the long mirror, looking at her who had been wearing a negligee. His whole life just this time was wearing such clothes. For so long he looked at himself with the soft loose bandage, sometimes he smiled to himself, sometimes feeling strange himself.

Staring from the tip of the foot to the end of the head. Frisca tied her hair in a bun and smiled to herself. Frisca felt comfortable with the shirt compared to tight jeans that had been worn for days.

After being satisfied with the strange sight of her who was a mastermind, Frisca finally decided to move out of the pavilion room and into the living room. In front Rivaldo is teaching Zefano to play Yoyo.

Frisca laughed when she saw the boy having trouble playing it and Rivaldo patiently taught him. Every time Rivaldo failed to lift Zefano's body and throw him into the air and catch him.

Zefano laughed feeling the sensation of flying while Keisya jumped up in excitement while laughing. Frisca smiled looking at the cheerfulness of the three people.

Unknowingly Rivaldo sees Frisca standing on the inside of the house. Zefano and Keisya looked inside. Keisya immediately clasped his father's hand.

"Tante Frisca is beautiful Pa, beautiful like Mama" Keisya said as he looked at Frisca.

"Hmm, it's pretty like Mama" said Rivaldo.

Keisya calls Frisca to play on the porch of the house but Frisca refuses. The woman was afraid that someone would recognize her. Rivaldo and the children entered the house.

"Flame, I said, this dress is right for you" said Rivaldo.

Frisca just silently looked down while rubbing her nape.

"But it seems like you're not used to wearing this kind of shirt" said Rivaldo, who sees Frisca occasionally twisting the front of the shirt.

Frisca just smiled down and looked more and more awkward.

"When I was a girl my wife was a fashionable woman but after marriage she would rather wear a negligee like that. He said it doesn't feel like a wife if he doesn't wear a negligee" Rivaldo said with a smile.

Frisca smiled at Rivaldo's wife's simple thoughts.

"Where's the washing machine? I'm going to wash my clothes and Zeno's clothes" Frisca said.

"Oh that's in the back, let me show you!" said Rivaldo who walked through the kitchen and opened the back door.

There is a washing machine and also a clothesline. Frisca stared around the backyard, there was also a wood leshan with a stretch that resembled a small garden. Rivaldo let the woman walk through the vegetable garden.

"Actually it is not our land but the owner said, we can plant vegetables there so as not to become a bush," said Rivaldo who made Frisca aware of his intention behind it.

Frisca finds her washing machine and Rivaldo helps fill the water. Frisca went into the house to pick up her dirty clothes and Zefano's clothes. Put it in the washing machine and then confused yourself how to run it. Rivaldo turned the wash button and the washing machine began to operate.

Rivaldo smiled, the man finally understood that Frisca had never washed her own clothes. Staring at the white and delicate skin of Frisca, feeling the woman's palm that was soft like the palm of a baby Rivaldo understood Frisca was not from the lower middle class.

Keisya came, Rivaldo immediately took the boy inside. Frisca followed in.

"We prepare dinner yuk," said Rivaldo to Keisya who was in his arms.

"Well," said Keisya quickly.

In the kitchen Rivaldo brought out the ingredients. Rivaldo cuts and Keisya helps wash vegetables. Sometimes the man has to go to the store if there is a buyer who is shopping. Then they continued cooking their dinner.

Frisca just stood watching, Rivaldo sometimes smiled looking at Frisca with his amazed face. Frisca did not hide her admiration when she saw the agility of Rivaldo cutting vegetables.

"I couldn't cook but my wife taught me. He said men who can cook are sexy and awesome. Whether it's true or just his wits to take me to cook with him" Rivaldo said.

Nah! Your wife's words are right, Frisca.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" ask Frisca at last.

"You want to help? All right for a rookie Chef just broke this long bean all this time," said Rivaldo avoiding Frisca using a knife.

Keisya smiled as he watched his father teach Frisca to break a long bean.

"Because there is a replacement Chef, Chef Keisya can play up front with Zeno," said Rivaldo who was sorry to see Zefano play alone.

Keisya nodded while keeping Keisya's shop back playing with Zefano.

"What is your wife dying from?" frisca asked, breaking the silence.

"Congenital heart disease, I didn't know she had it. Maybe because congenital heart disease is classified as mild and he is also smart to maintain health so as not to look to have the disease. He also never complains and is very good at keeping his lifestyle," explained Rivaldo.

"Then?" ask Frisca curiously.

"But I don't know for what the disease finally began to manifest itself. Sometimes I see him in pain. We just started a shop. I asked him to see a doctor but he refused, apparently he knew that the treatment cost a lot while we were just starting a business" Rivaldo continued.

The man bowed, his eyes looking blankly at the thought of the past.

"I'm willing to lose everything for the sake of treatment as long as I don't lose it but he's very good at tricking me. He acted as if he had recovered and foolishly I believed him and no longer forced him to seek treatment. He knew I had no money for treatment and he was not willing to lose the effort we were pioneering until he finally had a heart attack and I was late to help him. He left me with all my regrets" said Rivaldo, wiping his tears with the back of his hand.

Frisca looked sadly at the man.

"I'm sorry" said Frisca slowly.

"It's not your fault" replied Rivaldo smiling with eyes still dripping with water.

Frisca wiped the tears with her finger. Rivaldo looked at the girl who was trying to comfort him.

"I'm guilty of asking you that question and making you think back to your sadness" Frisca said.

"I thank you for being willing to listen to the stories that have been a burden in my life all this time" said Rivaldo, who looked at Frisca with eyes still dim.

Frisca involuntarily shed tears, feeling the sorrow of the kind-hearted man. Frisca wiped away the tears again and made their distance even closer. Unknowingly Rivaldo brought his face closer and fused their lips then slowly hugged the body of the beautiful woman.

Keisya who entered the kitchen stopped stepping and gaped at his father and Frisca who were kissing. Zefano who saw the incident immediately closed Keisya's eyes with both hands. While he closed his eyes.

Zefano did not know until when he would hold Keisya's eyes and his own until the sound of people calling from outside the store was heard. Rivaldo was shocked and reflexively let go of his kiss and grew even more surprised when he saw the two little boys.

Frisca covered her mouth with both of her hands, also shocked when she saw the two boys standing peeking towards them. Rivaldo smiled at Frisca, the woman returned the man's smile shyly.

"I look ahead first" said Rivaldo walking forward and rubbing Zefano's hair so that the boy would no longer peg there.

Zefano immediately opened his eyes and released his hand that closed Keisya's eyes then looked at Frisca who was standing on her back while smiling to herself.

Zefano and Keisya smiled as they saw Frisca flipping over. The woman returned the smiles of the two children and invited the two forward to follow Rivaldo but her steps stopped, her smile was suddenly lost.

Frisca reflex stood on the edge and peered behind the living room wall. The two children were told to be quiet and stand on the spot. Frisca looked sadly at the man who had just kissed her. Rivaldo looks at the photo while talking to two policemen.
