Stay Beside You's

Is This Missing? part 2

Denna finally overslept waiting for a reply to a message from Dane. The next day, Denna awakens in shock and searches where her phone is.

"He didn't call me." Denna looked pouted seeing no calls or even messages from Dane. His message yesterday has not been read by Dane.

"Fix, I'm really going to return the ring from you and I don't want to marry you, Danendra." Denna moved from her place and she immediately took a shower as she was about to go to the hospital.

In the hospital. The new Denna came, still not seeing her best friend. Denna looked confused by Diaz. He was tumben once not allowed to enter again until two days. Even if she didn't work until a few days she would have told the hospital, even the sisters there who used to work with Diaz didn't know.

"I'll try to contact Diaz. She's what's the matter? He shouldn't be taking any more holidays."

Diaz's phone could not even be reached. Denna then tries to contact Diaz's husband. Rio also could not be contacted.

"Diaz what's up? Is there a problem with him? I'll come home later, I'll stop by his house."

Denna's back to her job. Today he had a morning visit and Visit Diaz was replaced by another doctor.

Denna's work is done. Although a little late from the hour he finished work, Denna did not complain at all.

Inside Denna's car read the incoming message from V. V was already at the airport and waiting for his departure.

Denna replied by saying to contact her when she arrived.

Now Denna's eyes are on the Dane's name, and the two ticks have not turned blue.

Denna put her cell phone in and she headed for Diaz's house. The Diaz family home.

Once there, Diaz was not home. From yesterday the Mas Rio and Diaz families were not there either. They all went out of town to attend family events.

"family ceremony? But why is Diaz so hard to contact?"

"Maybe the signal doesn't exist, Mba Denna. Later if Mrs Diaz comes home, I'll tell her that Mba Denna is looking for her."

"Yes, that's it." Denna's permission to go from there. He's going to Nio's school like what he promised Nio yesterday.

Denna was still thinking about Diaz. If there's a family event, why didn't Diaz inform you of this?"

Denna arrived at Nio's school, Nio still has not finished his teaching and learning activities. Denna waited in the waiting room for the pick-ups.

"Mba Denna, why are you here?" greet Zia who was passing in front of Denna.

"I'm going to pick Nio up from school because I promised Nio yesterday." Denna gave her little smile.

"Pick up Nio? Mba Denna why are you still trying to grab the attention of her son Mas Dane? I'll take Nio home later if he doesn't deliver. Mas Dane is not in his house."

"I know. Dane told me the night before he was leaving for his job" Denna said casually as she fiddled at his cell phone.

"What's? Mas Dane told Mba Denna himself? Was Mba Denna the one who invited Mas Dane to meet?"

Both Denna's eyebrows wrinkled. "Dane asked me to meet. I don't know why he's out of my house in the middle of the night?"

Zia's face was a bit annoyed at hearing that. " Mba Denna, I love Mas Dane and I hope Mba Denna understands that."

"I understand. Zia, to be honest, I actually don't like you marrying Dane, or even being Nio's stepmother."

"Dane that night besides saying goodbye, he also proposed to me and asked me to get married."

The two eyes of the girl in front of Denna instantly sniggered in shock. Zia looked shocked to hear what Denna said.

"I've never approached or looked for attention on Dane, even I'm close to Nio sincerely not because I want to be close to Daddy, and Dane probably knows who's really sincere and who's not."

"This is impossible. I also sincerely love Nio even though I also want to approach Mas Dane. Even if I were to be her mother, I would really love Nio."

Denna now stood up and stared flatly at Zia. "Don't be a two-faced girl. You're not the one who deserves to be Nio's mother."

"What do you mean?"

"What you're talking about with your Aunt or Aunt at a cake shop is really what shows you who you really are. Zia." Zia seemed to think for a while and she just remembered something.

"Aante Denna!" exclaiming Nio who just got out of his class.

"Hello, Nio. Is school done?"

"Already! Let's go now, Auntie. I'm hungry because I deliberately did not bring supplies because I will be in the Tante Denna agreement."

"Geez! It's so sorry for you." Denna rubbed the little boy's hair.

"Nio, do you want to go with the teacher to the playground? Didn't Nio ever ask to go there?"

"It's not like Teacher Zia said she wanted to take Nio to the playground when Daddy was home, but Daddy was still a long time home. So, I've gone with grandpa."

Denna looked at it with her slanted smile. "Now, perhaps you have understood what I mean, two-faced girl," Denna said softly, but pressed on with the last three words.

Denna took Nio away from there. The two men joined hands towards the Denna car in the parking lot.

Both of Zia's hands clenched tightly holding back the anger. His eyes were sharp on Denna's back.

"I won't let you be happy, Denna. What more if you're right to marry Mas Dane."

Denna drove her car carefully as there was Nio beside her. Nio seemed happy to be able to take another walk with Denna.

"Nio, Nio was happy not while walking around with Teacher Zia?"

"Happy, but this way." The boy showed his index finger and thumb very close.

"What's that?" Denna looked astonished.

"Slightly, Aunt. If it's Aunt Denna, it's a lot." His hands opened wide.

Denna smiling. "Why is that? Is Teacher Zia not fun?"

"Fun, but all Daddy ever talks about and asks. Teacher doesn't care much when I'm with me either. He's busy with his cell phone."

The little boy is more sensitive to such things and Denna feels grateful to know who Zia really is before it's too late. Denna's gonna tell Zia who's on the Dane.
