Marisa took off her hug, in her gaze Dave's face was swollen. "We're the ones who should be apologizing to you, son." Marisa looked at me on the cheek of the young man she had considered to be her own child. "We casually kept everything from you a secret." he stared blankly at Dave's face. "We were selfish back then, but believe me. All we did was for your good." he tried to get Dave to understand.
In his view the woman who since childhood he called Mother with a feeling of reluctance, but now he can sincerely call her Mother. "I understand, Mom." Dave smiled, making Marisa's face even more wrinkled sad.
Kirana who was standing behind her Mother just silently watched the scene of Mother and child.
"What I don't understand, why can you still be nice after I say rude words full of insults ?" Dave looked at her.
Marisa smiled even though her face was puffy and she had wiped away her tears several times. On his elus Dave's arm several times. "Because you deserve to be angry." he said, leaving Dave stunned at her. "You're angry because you don't know, and after you know you're sorry, aren't you ?" the woman he called the mother smiled.
A fresh breeze hit Dave's face, he looked at the 43-year-old woman all right. I think he understood why his father loved him so much.
"Thank you, ma'am." once again Dave smiled gently.
He smiled at his mother, but Kirana behind was fixated with a blushing face.
At his hugging Dave once again with a pity, then at his arm's shackle to go inside. "Let's go in, how's the wound on your head ?" he asks.
"It's okay, Mom." Dave answered briefly.
Their steps came to a halt as Marisa looked back. "Kirana ? Why are you still standing there, son ?" Marisa was astonished to see her daughter was still pecking at her place.
Kirana was as if she had just regained consciousness, her eyes staring at her mother, but Dave was looking at her.
"Come, son." Marisa extended her left hand.
"Yes, Mom." Kirana could finally say. He ran small and welcomed his mother's hand.
So it was the woman holding Kirana and Dave's arms to her left-right.
The journey from the lake in the backyard to the mother house can take almost a 15-minute walk. With Marisa's slow pace, her second automatic has to adjust and that means it takes longer.
"It's great to be in the arms of two of Mom's children." Marisa close the two together again, making Dave and Kirana look at each other and then look away from each other.
Marisa keeps telling me this and that without realizing if her two kids seem clumsy to each other. Until they came into the house and now sat in the family room where there was Andreas and Kiandara in his lap.
"Sister Dave !" Kiandra was immediately cheerful when she saw Dave coming. He got up and ran to hug the man.
With pleasure Dave bowed and received a hug from his sister.
"Mother said Dave's brother is sick ?" her wide, bright brown eyes implied worry.
"Yes, but it's healed." Dave smiled as he tensed his body and stroked the top of the head of the 5-year-old.
While Marisa and Kirana have been sitting on the sofa facing each other with where Andreas is.
"How are you Dave ?" andreas asked as he sat beside her in the follow Kiandra who kept clinging to her.
"As you can see Dad, everything is good." he replied.
"I'll have a snack !" Marisa said excitedly as she stood up and clapped her hands together.
"Just have the waiter prepare." Andreas gave me advice.
"No, no. I can do it all myself." His wife had already walked away, making Andreas sigh long.
"What is the reason for getting out of here ?" Kirana said in her heart. Sitting face to face with Dave like this made his back sweat from nervousness.
"What ?"
Her father's huge voice made Kirana lift her face.
"Rendy made Eva's face sect ?" Andreas doesn't believe it.
"Yes, I found it among a pile of files in his apartment room." Dave says.
"Geez.that person.hahahaha..." Andreas could not hide his amused taste when imagining his brother's almost expressionless face drawing a sketch of a woman's face.
"What's that weird ?" Dave was astonished to see his father was able to laugh until it was blown away like that.
"No.just..." Andreas until he wiped his tears at the end. In his view Dave's face is so similar to his brother who has died. "I just thought, if only he would be honest with his feelings, I would help him as much as possible. Even if I have to deal with your grandfather, Dave." Andreas said for sure.
Dave was filled with excitement, so he remembered his grandfather who had not met or spoken to him until now. Those words indirectly also insinuate themselves who always keep all their own, never honest with what they feel. Pressing and throwing deep into the depths of his heart.
"Some time ago I met your Grandfather at the Businessmen's Banquet, and he was blatantly showing hostility towards me." Andreas clucked cynically.
"...Mom and I decided to stay in the apartment.eemm.." Dave seemed hard to continue his sentence. It's strange to call someone he doesn't know Papa.
"Yes, you better stay at Rendy's apartment." Andreas instantly knew what Dave meant without him continuing his sentence. "Rendy does not like a place to live that is too luxurious, for him that is important to be comfortable." Andreas looked at him.
"Yes Dad, the place is comfortable." he smiled. "During his stay, Mom's health also improved" this time Dave's tone sounded more excited. "A few days ago we even cooked together."
Andrew laughed when he heard it. "I don't think it's an apartment room but a big kitchen." joked him.
Dave laughing.
Without them realizing Kirana from earlier just stupefied staring at Dave without blinking with her mouth slightly opened.
"So Dave laughs really good." Kiandra who was sitting pulled over on her said. "Kirana to drool !" point it at Kirana.
The girl immediately regained her senses, quickly she shut her mouth and rubbed her with the back of her hand. "Who's drooling ?" amuk Kirana's. He panicked as Dave stared at her.
Andreas himself laughed amusedly at the manner of his daughter. There was absolutely no suspicion or anything that came to mind when the beautiful princess looked at Dave like that.
Kiandara laughed back and forth as the seat cushion that Kirana threw towards her hit Dave, making the girl's face paled instantly.
"I'm sorry !" Kirana's getting nervous. He had already stood up to take the pillow he threw back, but Dave just silently looked towards him with the pillow in his hand.
"Your face is ridiculous Kirana !" the laughter of Kiandra pointed at her older sister.
Andreas is not so attentive, he only considers it as entertainment from his children.
Kirana's heart was like it was going to jump when she looked at Dave like that. Her flat face really made Kirana anxious to kiss her.
Kirana was shocked by her own thoughts. "What do you think, right ??" her moaning in the heart.
"Well.is talking about something funny huh ?" Marisa comes with a tray full of small meals. Behind him a waiter has served a warm wedang round.
"Dave, try it." Said Marisa after putting a tray containing her snacks and arranged by the Servant who immediately leave once her task is completed. "You know wedang ronde ? It's my own mother who made it." she smiled.
Kirana was already sitting back on the spot, "It's a good thing Mom came." she held onto her rumbling chest.
Kiandra had picked the chiffon bread served, while Andreas had sipped his wedang round.
"I know Mom." Dave answered while receiving a small bowl of ginger water-filled drinks with gelatin, small pieces of bread, pearl sago and a chewy white circle containing a collision of sweet beans. "Grandfather likes it and I often make it if he's free." he can smell the strong ginger aroma of the drink that is still steaming the hot smoke.
"yes ??" Marisa doesn't believe it.
But Dave did not want to explain further, he had spooned ginger with his pearl sago to the mouth. Creates a warm sweet taste in the esophagus.
It is very fitting to enjoy this drink on a cold night in the rainy season.
"Maybe for some time, mom and I are going back to Paris." Dave said after putting his empty bowl on the table. Making everyone in the Family Room stare at her, including Kirana who is enjoying her own wedang round.
"Why ? Is Rendy Apartment less comfortable ?" ask Andreas.
"No, Dad." Dave looked at the man he would always consider Father.
"Then why Dave ?" this time Marisa asked. "You've just entered college here, haven't you ?" ask her.
Dave smiled at the woman he called Mom. "I'll take a leave of absence maybe, ma'am." she replied.
Kirana again could only stare at Dave in a frenzy.
"After all these years, Mom's finally getting treatment." Dave explains. "With Mom's illness already severe, I'm not sure of the treatment here."
Although he was talking to Andreas and Marisa, but Dave's eyes were fixed on Kirana whose eyebrows were already linked to each other looking at him.
