Epsd. 57. Paternity
After breakfast, Lucas and Cherry decided to take a walk around the area. Lucas himself was not reluctant to hold Cherry's hand in public. Likewise with Cherry, he welcomed her warmly, even now Cherry is no longer ashamed to put her hand on Lucas' arm.
"It's Barbie's gooey" Lucas said, looking at Cherry.
"I also feel..," said Cherry.
"Sense what?" ask Lucas because Cherry paused.
"Feel father's love" replied Cherry remembering the moment of her togetherness with her father.
"Koq is Cherry's father." said Lucas was not in accordance with his expectations if Cherry would call husband or lover.
"I miss my father a lot. When I was a child every Cherry asked to be invited to take a trip to the mall, my father always invited me here" Cherry let go of her grip and went one more step forward given the moment of her childhood with Zain's father.
"Dad always said that the mall was the same as the park, which distinguishes only there is food and equipment sold by Mother at the kiosk" Cherry smiled to remember.
"I've always believed every father said that, until I understood the reason why you never took me to the mall was just a financial limitation" he continued.
"Although, I have never been angry or disappointed with my father because he is the best man in my life" Cherry said with a trembling tone and a raucous voice.
Lucas steps his legs, flips his body and Cherry comes face to face. There were Cherry's tears, and Lucas cupped his face.
"Dad must be happy to have a daughter as beautiful and as smart as you" Lucas said.
Cherry was no longer able to stem the longing for her father, finally she hugged Lucas and poured all her sadness into Lucas' embrace.
"Yes already.. My Barbie can't cry, my Barbie has to smile and be happy now" Lucas told Cherry.
"So sweet really mas, mbak..," said one of the people who passed Lucas and Cherry.
"Like the world belongs to us euy..," said one of the others.
Hearing a lot of people greeting him, both of them realized that they were in the wrong place.
"Well, this is my husband" Cherry said, making Lucas distrustful because Cherry called him a husband in front of the crowd.
"Bikin ngiri loh mbak, her husband is cool"." said one person who had noticed Lucas.
"Yes dong... My husband is like that.." said Cherry and then kissed Lucas' cheeks in public.
"Cie.." everyone cheered.
Cherry then pulls Lucas away from the crowd. They chose to go to the middle of the park next to which there was a children's playground.
"Om. I bought that ice cut first" Cherry did not sit with Lucas, she went to the father of the ice cut seller who was a meter from Lucas.
"Two sir..,"
"Yes mbak..," answered the iceman's brother. No wait for long Cherry orders completed.
"This is mbak. " while offering Cherry orders.
"Koq is pink sir?" ask Cherry.
"It's not that it's brown" pointed to a brown jar.
"This is the priority of ice cut Mr. Mamat mbak, will change color according to the contents of the heart. The mother will fall in love again.natural if it changes color" said the ice cut explained either pretend or it just so happens Cherry believe it.
"Here's the money pack" Cherry offered the iceman five hundred pieces of red.
"Mr.." call the iceman after Cherry turns around.
"More is lacking sir?" ask Cherry to make sure.
"Ga nothing sir, my husband is a rich man. Itung-itung pak family sustenance" said Cherry by passing.
"It's om..," Cherry thrust the other piece of ice at Lucas.
"Om tau ga, Mr. Mamat was the one who nolongin father when he was fired from his job" Cherry told while enjoying ice cut.
Unlike Cherry who can enjoy the ice cut, Lucas did not bite him because he remembered Zain. Lucas is so guilty of making Cherry lose her father. On the one hand Lucas was also terrified of his relationship with Cherry fractured due to this secret.
"Mamat's father helped me to bring home the severance pay. Even though the father is not one percent given severance by the company where he works" continued Cherry.
Lucas's heart was deeply saddened to hear of Zain's suffering from Cherry's story.
"Mom and I found out Dad was not working when Dad peddled ice, cut Mamat here. From here we know if the father is no longer working in a company that has been raised his name" added Cherry, this time with a cynical smile considering his past.
"Aren't you going to sue the company?" ask Lucas at last.
"At first I wanted to be angry, I wanted to curse the people there. But what was the power at that time I was a child. The words of the little ones they can't hear" Cherry answered still enjoying the ice cut.
"Keep... Do you not want to continue with your wish at this time?" ask Lucas back.
"Say you don't have to hold a grudge because God doesn't like it. Let it be his business with God, for the law of God is always just" Cherry replied.
'You're right Cherry God's law is always fair, but I'm afraid that God's law will keep us away. I wouldn't be able to lose you' Inner Lucas.
"Om.. Why aren't you eating ice? not good, huh?" cherry protests saw Lucas' cut ice begin to melt.
"Enak koq" Lucas said, directly eating the ice.
On the sidelines they both spend ice cut a ball coming towards them.
Cherry smiled at a 7-year-old boy who approached the ball.
"Sorry onti, I want to take my ball back" said the little boy who could speak without a slurred voice.
"What's your name, little boy? you're so handsome" Lucas asked graciously.
"Call me Agha om, I am indeed handsome everyone says that" replied the little boy with his pedal.
"Onti will soon love me" said the little boy.
"Eh... Little kids know what love is about? growing up was a little sister" said Cherry.
"I've grown up said Mama before mama went to see God. Mama said she would send my message to live a happy life full of love and love" said Agha.
Cherry and Lucas were silent to hear the innocent story of the boy named Agha. Cherry then squatted to align her body with Agha.
"Where do you live, handsome boy?" ask Cherry.
"Disana" while pointing to a north garden.
Cherry and Lucas turned their heads together following Agha's lead. He saw a shabby and untidy house. Cherry and Lucas looked back at Argha.
"Who are you staying with?" ask Cherry.
"Dad" Agha replied innocently.
