The Grace of Debt Redeemer

Curse of the Little Child

Nathan seemed speechless at the question from the two people he loved, he tried to stay calm and answered, "Clara there is still an important photo shoot that can not be left."

"So Mami won't be here huh Pi?" Keenan asked who looked so disappointed.

"Darling, Mami just can't get here yet. But Mami you promised you'd finish the shoot quickly and come straight here" Nathan replied. While Cynthia just kept her anger.

"Yes, if so we wait for Mami to come, yes Pi" said Keenan.

"Every little boss" replied Nathan who made Keenan laugh.

"Pi, Keenan has a new friend, you know, his son is good. She and her mother delivered Keenan's birthday cake" Keenan said excitedly.

"Oh yes, what is the name of his friend, woman or man?" Ask Nathan.

"His name is Nadine Pi. She's a pretty girl, she's kind to Keenan. Keenan is happy to have a good new friend like Nadine" Keenan said.

"Nadine? Why is it that I'm no stranger to that name?" Inner Nathan.

Flashback …

"Darling, I can't wait to see you pregnant and I will definitely marry you. Later after our child is born, we will give his name according to the name of both of us," said Nathan.

"Oh yeah, who do you want to give our son's name?" Ask Dinda.

"Hm ... Who is it? You have no idea?" Ask Nathan anyway.

"Nathan, Dinda, Nadine times yes," said Dinda.

Flashback.

"No .. surely this is just a coincidence," Nathan's mind awakens from his daydream.

"You are a child and you know a beautiful and kind woman" Nathan's seduction made the child smile with embarrassment.

"Oh yes Pi, Oma also knows her mother Nadine. Oma spoke to her mother Nadine. It was me and Nadine playing together deh," said Keenan innocently, of course the honesty of the grandson made Cynthia jerked.

"Grand .. uhuk … ." Suddenly Cynthia became coughing.

"Ma, Mama's okay, right?" Nathan asked, giving his mother some water to drink.

"Thank you son, Mama is fine" said Cynthia.

"Oh, honey, what's Nadine's mother's name?" Nathan asked the one who turned to his son again.

"Keenan forgot Pi, but Oma must have known," Kenan replied.

Now the two glanced at Cynthia as if asking for her answer.

"Oh that, Mama also just knew. Naturally dong Mama chat with the owner of the cake shop, is it wrong? Just saying thank you. Mama also ajakin him and Nadine to celebrate Keenan's birthday, but it turns out they are in a hurry to go home," explained Cynthia. He could not possibly tell Nathan who he had just met, as this was also Dinda's request not to tell him.

"Oh .. Yes Ma is not wrong" said Nathan.

"Keenan, now we just start the show. Later that night, you know," said Cynthia as well as to divert the conversation earlier.

"Later Oma, Keenan will wait for Mami" Keenan replied.

At the moment, the time is 08:00 p.m. If the show doesn't start soon, then it'll be overnight. Given the number of invited guests who have been present, especially small children, of course they are impatient to start the event. Moreover, they are also unlikely to go home late at night because tomorrow they will go to school.

"But Keenan wants to wait for Mami." Kenan wept and remained stupefied at his stance.

"Keenan darling, if you like this pity dong his friends, they will be disappointed continue to go home. Keenan does not want friends to feel disappointed," persuaded Cynthia anyway.

Keenan was downcast, he was very reluctant to hold his birthday event. Keenan looked so sad and disappointed because he did not see the figure of his mother who had not arrived until now. But because his father and grandmother continued to persuade, Keenan finally agreed to start the event even with a sullen face.

A few hours later, the show was over. Now Nathan, Keenan and Cynthia are leaving the restaurant.

"Ma, let me take Mama home first. Later, Keenan and I will go back to the apartment" Nathan said.

"No Nathan, Mama's going home with the driver" Cynthia refused. While Cynthia's husband is currently abroad, because his work abroad is very much so that he spends more time there.

"Yes Ma, then Mama be careful, yes" said Nathan.

"Dear, you and Keenan are also careful" said Cynthia.

"OK Oma" said Keenan, while Nathan nodded.

Then they separated and went back to their homes.

"Ma, that was when Nadine was playing with Keenan, Keenan told her about her papa" Nadine told her mother before they went to bed.

"Oh yeah? What's Keenan's story?" Ask Dinda who suddenly wants to know the story about the man in her past. Nadine began to tell Dinda.

Flashback...

"Nadine, Mama you are good yes and surely Mama you love very much with you, not like my Mami," said Keenan.

"Why can you say that your mom doesn't love you?" Ask Nadine.

"Yes because Mami is always busy with her work, Mami has no time for me and is always angry with me. I was sent to Oma every day because Papi and Mami were busy working. Only Oma, Opa and Papi love me" Nathan replied.

"You can't talk like that Keenan, either way you should be grateful because you still have both parents, while I don't have Papa anymore. I never even saw my Papa face. But I'm sure Papa I'm good looking" said Nadine who looked sad.

"Nadine you don't be sad yes, later I will know you with Papi me and you can think of Papi me as Papi you too," said Kenan.

"Oh yeah? Can it really be?" Nadine didn't believe it.

"Yes, really," replied Keenan.

"Promise yes" said Nadine, pointing her little finger as she used to do with her mother.

Keenan then said the word promise and linked his little finger to Nadine's little finger, making them smile. Unlike the chatter of a child in general, but that's Nadine and Keenan who were born with the advantages of being a genius child.

Flashback.

Without realizing it, Dinda shed her tears because she heard the story of her son. How can a child like Keenan and Nadine discuss the family, especially Keenan offers his father to be Nadine's father which is clearly Nathan is Nadine's real father. They were brothers who were destined to meet. Dinda felt her heart so sore, she did not know until when to hide this secret, would she still let Nadine forever would not know the figure of her father? All of that really confused Dinda. Dinda herself until now has absolutely no desire to get married and find a surrogate father for Nadine. Though the age is said to be quite mature, it can even be called a spinster because of its age that will step 31 years.
