Yara silently peeked at Ray who was pensive in this holiday morning, eager for Yara to approach him and play like before again.
Seen the look of Ray's flat face, he turned into a quiet boy and did not talk much.
Soon Poppy approached Ray with a small bucket of used mop water.
“Ngapain Poppy's sister with that dirty water,” Yara murmured inwardly, she was still observing from afar.
Byuurr~
Poppy laughed after dousing Ray with the dirty water he was carrying. Yara growled in annoyance, had she been able maybe now Yara has grabbed Poppy's hair.
Yara's gaze turned towards Ray, his stepfather was just silent without doing anything, not even bothering Ray's daydream when it was just doused by Poppy.
“Hey why are you quiet hah!” snapped Poppy, he hated Ray's response.
“So you want me to repay you so?” ray said, he finally turned his gaze towards Poppy.
“Reply if you dare, I will complain to my grandmother and mother,” threatened Poppy
“Ck complainant,” short Ray “Are you done with your business? If so go go”
Poppy was angry. “Awas only, I will come again with grandma.” After saying that, Poppy ran away.
Yara realizes Ray's change, Ray would usually cry if disturbed, but for a month now Yara has not seen the tears again. Ray had already turned into a strong and not crybaby child anymore.
Arriving from the family room there was a noise, Yara ran to see what happened as well as Ray.
After arriving, there was no one there, but Yara looked out and found her father holding Ezra's mother who seemed to be in pain.
“Mama!” ray shouted running outside with worry.
The car was already running as well as Ray who was already in the car, he joined because papa Calvin had stopped to bring Ray too.
Meanwhile Yara was silent with all her confusion.
“Yara let's go in,“ said Reva pulled Yara's hand.
“What happened to mama Ezra ma?” ask Yara curiously.
“She wants lahiran.”
“Means brag again there is baby grandpa in this house dong.” Yara's eyes sparkled with delight, Reva who realized it immediately rebuked Yara.
“I-iya ma Yara understood” Yara shut her mouth feeling guilty, afraid she would be punished again.
In the afternoon, news of Aunt Ezra reached the residence of the Calvin family. Ezra and her baby were pronounced dead after the birth.
The next day Ezra is buried with his baby, Ray weeping for Ezra's departure.
Yara also cries, Yara bravely hugs Ray tampa to care about the whereabouts of Rava who sees her.
Ray, veiled in grief, receives Yara's embrace, forgetting her heartache for a while.
“Ray don't cry anymore, surely now Mama Ezra is in heaven with baby grandpa,” said Yara innocently accompanied by a mouthful of rogue cries.
Had there been no Papa Celvin here, Reva might have pulled Yara away from Ray.
