The Journal Of Triplet 07
Season 3: He Would Never Know
Meeting Chadala made Ben and Shasha a little relieved. All of her mother's veils were open because Chadala gave her information. Early in the morning Dewin had already cooked food for Ben, Kaori, and Shasha. Ben's face was a little surprised that his stepfather could cook like Via cuisine.
"Well, today we have many meetings. Do you want to be with me if you want to split the car?" Ben asked with his eyes still on his KiPad.
Dewin just fell silent and looked at Shasha and Kaori who were still walking in her nightgown. Only Ben was ready for a meeting with a few people.
"Darling, I'm waiting for you." Call gently Kaori who sees Ben still busy with his KiPad and prepare the materials for the meeting.
"Oh, sorry... I'm..." Ben said and disconnected because Dewin was talking about something.
"It's okay, papah wait for you to finish our new meal. You may have forgotten that today is the weekend. It's family day..." The word Dewin reminds Ben and makes him stunned to listen to Dewin's words.
Ben finally put all his work in and refocused with Dewin waiting for Ben.
"Well, can I talk to you? But no brother Ben yah?" Shasha asked as she opened the conversation with Dewin.
"Come, today papah will ngedate with you. But if papah number 2 from Melvin, papah just give up." It was Ledek Dewin who made Shasha sing her lips.
"Bah, today Kaori wants monthly shopping. Papah want what nitip?" Sela Kaori who took the fruit in the refrigerator and put it on the table.
"No, papah needs a grandson." Ledek Dewin again and because it makes Ben, Shasha and Kaori spout food.
"Your fine lines. Beresin, papah don't like yah!" Omel Dewin and left the dining table and returned to his room.
Sontak Ben and Kaori are still dumbfounded by the talk of his stepfather. While Shasha cleaned up the leftovers. In the room Dewin stared at Via's favorite Lilly Pink flower. In his heart Dewin still thought Via was still beside him.
"Rick, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have taken away your happiness and your children's. But I promise to take care of them." Dewin said in his heart and wiped his tears.
Ben saw his stepfather when his door was not shut. A look at Erick and Via and Dewin's tears as they come down. If all this time Dewin always rigid with the situation.
"Well, can I come in, can't I?" Ben asked who knocked on Dewin's room door.
"Can. Here, come in" Call Dewin from within who is already neatly wiping his tears.
"Well, Ben is serious." Ben asked who started looking at Dewin seriously while sitting on Dewin's work sofa.
With a serious face also Dewin looked at Ben who was sitting relaxed but serious.
"Well, I know I want a grandchild. But..." Ben said he opened the serious conversation.
"Ben.. You don't have to be sorry with papah's request. Having children is not something that is very important in a marriage. But you know what?" Dewin said that made Ben speechless with the exact same words Dewin with his father.
"No reward." Replied Ben whose face was bowed because he was embarrassed to not be able to answer Dewin's question.
"Having that child is a big responsibility. Once you're wrong educate, you can't repeat it." Dewin said again and gave Ben a bottle of fizzy drink.
Ben saw the look on Dewin's face getting older but did not look aging in the slightest.
"Next month, the day of your mother and father's death. Do we need to go back to Indonesia?" Dewin asked suddenly - arrived and Ben just remembered him.
"I don't want to go to Indonesia. I'm ..." Ben answered and hung up making Dewin smile.
"Well, already. Papah to Indonesia alone, do you want to be brought the same papah?" Ask Dewin again and they ordain that afternoon alone.
The twilight is getting more and Shasha is ready with her style to ngedate along with Dewin. Shasha recalls Erick's habit of asking Shasha out on a date every Sunday night before going out with Seon Ho.
Ting toooonngg... Tingtooo....
Dewin's house bell rang and Ben was curious who was so fad about interrupting his family's dating schedule.
"What a pah, like this..." Shouted Ben looking with his dashing Dewin carrying flowers and a tentengan in hand.
" Thank you pah." Reply Shasha yet unstoppable tears fell to the cheeks. Seeing this, Dewin gave her handkerchief to Shasha to wipe away her tears.
Ben remembers Erick always asking Shasha out on a date, but after Erick's gone. Shasha was more alone in the room and did not tell anyone exactly the same Mother.
Seeing Ben pensive, Kaori approached and hugged Ben. So that his mind does not fall too deep.
"Dad, your position is irreplaceable. But duplicating what dad did really makes me claustrophobic." In his heart Ben sat in front of his desk and looked at Ben's photo with Erick.
...----------------...
England, London ...
Dewin's car splits through the city sky dubbed by the world's oldest monarchy. Shasha looked at Dewin while continuing to tell stories and asked Dewin's opinion about Southeast Melvin.
"If papah, as comfortable as you. Because marriage is not a race." Dewin said after Shasha opened her mouth asking for Dewin's opinion.
"Bah, I'm serious about it. Papah sama mamah used to love and hate that relationship. Does papah hate mama?" Shasha asked outside the subject of Shasha.
"Sha, find a man not to be like your papah is stupid. But yeah, it's been. You already know your papah and mama's story." Reply Dewin who parked his vehicle with a vallet and Shasha uploaded his whereabouts. In a short time Shasha's pinstagram became crowded due to his actions.
Shasha also sees the world of social media getting heated up because Shasha uploads her existence. Seon Ho sees Shasha being at his favorite eatery along with his Father, soon Seon Ho catches up with Shasha.
"Oppaaaa... Where are you going?" Shouted a woman from behind.
Seon Ho did not listen to her and ran to the car and drove his vehicle to where Shasha was. It has been a few months after the break up of Seon Ho and Shasha that made Seon Ho do not understand why Shasha decided her.
Shasha's pretty face and her arms embrace Dewin's arms. Making Seon Ho blush from blind jealousy. It really makes Seon Ho not think long to approach Shasha.
"Hello Sha, how are you?" Sapa Seon Ho who is a little stale. To make Shasha a little surprised and Dewin started to put up a defense.
"Hi, I'm good news. You?" Reply to the usual sounding Shasha.
Dewin who sat down saw the incident and finally told Seon Ho to sit down. Shaha seeing Seon Ho's jealous face made his heart even more guilty.
5 minutes of Seon Ho staring in jealousy made Dewin feel uncomfortable. Arrive - arrive...
"Sha, I beg you to reconsider your decision. I swear I'll pay more attention to you." Said Seon Ho while kneeling.
"Sorry, Seon Ho. I'm not comfortable with you anymore. My reason is still the same as the beginning of our break up." Shasha answered making Seon Ho lower his pride by pleading.
Dewin raises Seon Ho to sit down, but his hand is Dewin on the edge by Seon Ho. Shasha who was looking at it instantly glared full of wonder.
"Well, are you okay?" Shasha asked as she looked at Dewin's hand on the bank by Seon Ho. Dewin smiled and Seon Ho's face looked panicked as Seon Ho brushed off Dewin's hands in jealousy. Shasha's hand held Dewin's hand and left Seon Ho who was still on his knees because of Shasha.
In the car Dewin notices his girl who looks disappointed by Seon Ho's treatment.
"Are you shocked or pityed?" Dewin asked as he drove his vehicle home.
"I now understand why Dad's frowning with Seon Ho is different from when I met Melvin. Even Papah's reaction was the same as Dad." Shasha recalls all Erick's words in life.
In the silence along the way made Dewin think.
"A father/father will not let his child be hurt by anyone. Even with his family once" said Dewin suddenly made Sha-sha stunned by the words.
"That.. " Call Sha-sha when you get home and go inside.
"Sha, no father wants his child in vain. Especially by his partner." Dewin said as he rubbed Sha-sha's head and walked to his room.
Ben and Kaori accidentally see the incident, but undo the intention to ask what is with their dinner.
