...🥀🥀🥀...
Bright afternoon sky, in a 2-story house looks beautiful with a small garden in the yard. The Honda jes that Noval drove finally parked beautifully in the garage of the house that is enough to accommodate his personal vehicle.
"Dad's home!" the voice of the 6-year-old boy's cry sounded loud and cheerful from inside the house, welcoming the return of the father when he heard the sound of a car that he believed was his father's car.
"Let's get off Layla, Lulu must be happy to see you coming home with you!" noval said by opening the seat belt that wrapped around his body, his happy smile emanated markedly on his lips.
"Will Mama Sifanye welcome me too, father?" ask Layla with the tip of the shirt she was wearing.
Noval frowned, hearing Layla's question, his hand stretched out at Layla's head. "Why still ask like that Layla? Mama Sifanye keeps asking dad about your news. That means Mama Sifanye is worried about you!"
Layla smiled bitterly at the words of her father, how could she say if her mother did not want her presence in the house. But if not to Noval's house, where else should he go.
Although in reality Layla has 2 houses for her to return home, but her little heart does not deny the discomfort of both.
His parents, Noval and Tati, separated when Layla was just 3 years old. And a year after the split the two chose the path to return home with their choice.
"Let's go down, you see that... Lulu has welcomed us home!" the father said, pointing outwards, showing a 6-year-old boy with hair in his ponytail two clapping cheerfully at Noval's car.
"Dad's home, daddy's home! Mamaaaa, I'm home!" lulu excitedly welcomed the father.
Noval went outside first from the car, with two hands stretched out with his left hand carrying his briefcase.
"Yeah!" Lulu ran, scattering and jumping in her father's arms, to her two tiny hands coiled around Noval's neck.
"Not the bad dad's son was at the house? Are you troubling your mama?" tanya Noval by kissing gaunchy cheek puffed Lulu.
"Lulu today not naughty father, Lulu today be a good boy!" he said innocently.
"Pinter's father's son, where's your mama, baby?" asked Noval by staring at the door of the house, not yet seen the wife who would usually welcome his return from the office.
"Mama is in the father, again lietin mother mother demo in tivi, it's the cook cook." said Lulu.
Bugh.
The sound of the car door being opened, made Lulu turn her head towards the car.
Lulu fiddles, finds out who got off the father's car.
"So Layla!" but a second later the smile fell on his lips, he thrashed asking to be let down from Noval's sling.
"Hi Lulu!" Layla waved her hand at Lulu, her step-sister from her father.
Bugh.
To the two tiny hands Lulu coiled on to Layla's two legs. Lulu put her face to Layla's face and asked innocently.
"Where is Layla going? How can you not play here? Is Layla still mad at you? Don't you think Layla's still mad at me?" lulu Cecar.
"I'm sorry Lulu, but Layla is not angry with Mama and Lulu. Kaka Layla is just a lot of work from school, so he hasn't played here yet!" it was Layla who was clear she was lying.
"Oooohhhh that's it! Come on you come in, mama has cooked well for Lulu and dad.later kaka try mama's cooking huh! I must like it! Layla continued to want to continue to eat hehehe." tiny hands lulu grasped Layla's index finger and invited her into the house with Noval following her who walked behind to her two daughters. Two daughters of different wives.
Arriving inside the house, Layla's two eyes are treated again with different things, from the last time she was in the house of the father.
The picture frame is only displayed to three residents, Noval, Sifanye and Lulu. Photos of togetherness where there is Layla is no longer in place.
Layla swallowed her saliva with difficulty, this must be Mama Sifanye who had dropped my photo, is that not so bad I was in this house again, until my photo is not on display with Mama Sifanye and Noval's father?
"Mama, look who came!" lulu exclaimed cheerfully, swinging her 2 feet into the house that looked majestic in it, even though the view from outside the house seemed ordinary.
Sifanye who was busy with television screens made him forced to turn to his favorite daughter.
"Indeed si-a-" Sifanye looked surprised to see Layla who looked familiar with her biological daughter.
"Assynriding, mah!" layla exclaimed with her right hand reaching for Sifanye's right hand, and kissed the back of the woman's right hand who was now the connecting mother.
"Greetings waalaikum!" sifanye said with a surprise that he dimmed, why can this child go home with dad? Did they make a deal?
"Mama Tumben didn't welcome father home?" ask Noval by stroking Layla's shoulder.
Sifanye's outstretched right hand took over the briefcase in Noval's tenteng, he also kissed the back of Noval's right hand with a warm kiss.
Cup.
Noval reciprocated Sifanye's treatment by kissing his wife's forehead with affection.
Sifanye smiled bitterly at Layla, what else would this child want to come here?
"Come on, take a shower! Are you planning here? I'll sleep in my room?" babble Lulu by inviting Layla to leave to both. Lulu takes Layla to her room on the 2nd floor.
"Yes tonight we are here" said Layla who can still be heard by Sifanye.
Sifanye looked at Noval with a probing gaze, he wrapped his hand around Noval's arm, dragged her towards the sofa and landed a body weight onto the second on the sofa.
"Dad knows what you want to ask, let Layla stay here tonight. After all Lulu was also happy to see her brother in this house!" said Noval who understood the gaze that Sifanye gave her.
"Well, your son is not angry with me anymore? It's your son who likes to look for trouble with me!" sifanye grumbled sarcastically.
"Don't dong mah! His name is also a child. Naturally, it will also be good on its own right.It is not possible that Layla can be angry for long with you, do not want what you still mama connect best for him." Noval sniffed the wife's nose.
Flashback 2 weeks earlier.
In the room looks Layla and Lulu who are playing a fight, Lulu acts as a red onion who is scolding garlic.
"You know what the hell, wash the real clothes..not rich gini, this look at the stains on the clothes are still there, how the hell, the work is not real!" nagging Lulu by showing the dress in her hand as if there is a soy sauce stain.
"I-I'm sorry onion, ta-but the soap is not there, so I had to just rinse it with clean water without any soapy makeup" Layla said with a great shaking voice.
Bugh.
Lulu spontaneously pushes Layla's body against the wall.
"Based on you, you are useless. Garlic makes it hard, die you! You can't live garlic, you have to die, death is the best way for you Layla!" Lulu seemed to grin at the face of Pucattt pasiii Layla who was in the middle of her neck with two hands Lulu.
Bugh.
Noval opens the door to Lulu's room rudely, to her surprise she finds her eldest daughter Layla in a giggle with Lulu's two hands.
"Lu-lu, to-long le-pas, a-pa that ka-mu la-ku-kan Lu-lu!" in a clenched voice, Layla tried to say to Lulu, asking her to take her hand off her neck.
Sreek.
Bugh.
Noval furiously pulled Lulu's hand and made her fall on the floor.
"What have you done Lulu?" noval asked in a voice rising by an octave.
"What are you doing? They both must be joking! Daddy's outrageous!" Sifanye helped Lulu get out of position, with a sharp look he aimed at Noval and Layla alternately.
"What are you doing, baby?" sifanye asked softly oada Lulu.
Lulu shook her head. "I'm just playing a show, we're playing a rich role in tivi tivi" said Lulu.
"Is it true what Lulu said, Layla?" noval asked after hearing Lulu's confession to Sifanye.
Layla nodded her head, confirming what her step-sister had said. "But don't know why, Lulu's playing with me, Dad!" layla's hand touched her neck which was clearly visible as Lulu's hand was imprinted there.
"Good job, baby!" sifanye whispered to Lulu, with a cynical look she pointed at Layla.
"You slept in another room, Layla!" Noval takes Layla out of Lulu's room.
"Why should it be in another room, huh? Let Layla sleep in this room alone with Lulu!" sifanye disagreed with Noval's decision.
"Layla can die if she stays close to Lulu!" noval grumbled quietly that only Layla could hear.
"Well! Noval, Noval's father, don't take Layla, Lulu's just kidding! They will get along again, playing together again! You little boy, just kidding me is a crybaby!" sifanye's voice was clearly heard to the outside of the room, with a voice that rose by several octaves.
"Sorry dad, I'm not going to fight with Sifanye's mom, right?" layla asked with a sad look, I've made Sifanye's father and mother quarrel.
"We don't fight, baby, you go to sleep. Tomorrow let's go you, daddy's coming to school!" Noval.
Flashback.
"He must have come here because he told Tati to ask for pocket money with you, right, baby?" sifanye asked with a suspicious look.
