The Shadow Wife

Chapter 26 - Mouth and Hearts Saying Another

Devina was already on her bed. He tried to close his eyes to take a nap but could not be closed yet.

He saw Disya who was fast asleep in the bed next to him. They were both in the same room. In fact, he also occasionally heard a soft mutter coming out of the lips of his twin sister called their Mami. Disya was delirious to call Binar. As a result, he was increasingly unable to sleep.

While his father after talking to him, he was soon ready to sleep. She knew her father was tired from just coming home from out of town. Her face looks so dirty.

Devina looked at the ceiling of her room. Recalling the four-eye conversation between himself and the Papi a moment before.

"Boy likes Mom what's Mommy ?"

"Why did Devi ask Papi that question?" dion asked who was quite surprised to get an unexpected question like this from his eldest daughter.

"Devi just wants to know," muttered Devina softly.

A heavy sigh escaped from Dion's lips.

"Devi certainly knew that Papi loved his late mother very much. From then until now, my mother was always in Papi's heart. Can't be replaced by anyone,"

"Including Mami?" devina asked as she glanced at her Papi's face at a glance.

Dion was silent. Her lips felt heavy answering Devina's question. But in the end...

"Yes including Mami," replied Dion briefly who finally ejected from his lips.

Silence was re-created between the father and the child in the family room. Dion turned back to his daughter.

"Currently, my love and love for Papi are only focused on the two of you. Papi also loves Mami but is only a brother and sister," said Dion trying to dismiss a sense that quietly slipped in his heart.

"Unfortunately Papi to Mami so I'm kayaking me to Disya that is?"

"Like that. Just a little different context. Later when Devina grows up you will understand, son." Dion stroked Devina's hair sitting next to him.

"But why Devi felt what Papi said was just a lie" Devina said.

"I mean, what lie, baby? We can't lie. Papi always taught you to be honest, right," said Dion.

"Devina doesn't know. Only Papi and Allah know that Papi lied to Devi. Teacher Shame on saying that our little hearts can't lie but our mouths can say something else,"

"When I was at school, when I answered the same question, Teacher Devi lied to Pi." Devina could only bow in lethargy.

"What lie, baby? Keep asking what?" ask Dion who is getting curious. He was so busy that he rarely saw the growth of his two daughters. Especially having a warm conversation like this now, it is very rare.

"Whose family do we care about the most?

"Keep Devi answered what?" ask Dion.

"Devi answered Papi," said Devina and made Dion smile at his reply.

But before long, Devina's smile suddenly disappeared as her head lowered before Dion.

"But now Devi regretted answering so earlier Pi," said Devina sounding sad.

"Little heart Devi says Mami's psychic. But Devi's mouth said Papi's dearest,"

"All my friends answered dear Mami well. Only Devi answered dear Papi," said Devina.

"Mommy ducks this well into Devi and Disya. But Devi's mouth can't say dear to Mami. Devi is afraid Papi forgot mom. Afraid Papi focused on Mami so forget about me and Disya. But why is Devi's heart sad now, Pi. Must be Devi replied dear Mami. Since childhood Mami who took care of me the same Disya. I only took care of her for a while because she was with God. Maafin Devi, Pi. Huhu.." Devina's cry suddenly broke in Dion's arms.

"Cup.cup...cup..."

"That's okay, baby. Devi is not wrong. Kan Devi is a child. Don't cry when you get angry with Papi if you see you're sad here" Dion said, trying to persuade Devina. Because Dion knew very well his daughter this one very rarely cry. But now Devina suddenly cries just because she lied to her teacher and also in front of her school friends about who she cares about the most.

Chequek...

The door to Binar's room was opened by Devina. Yes, Dion's eldest daughter knows the location of Binar's room's duplicate key. Because the original key was brought by the mother.

While the duplicate is placed in a special place outside the room Binar. Where only Binar and Devina know. While Dion and Disya do not know about this duplicate key.

It was Binar himself who told Devina where it was. Because Binar felt that Devina, despite always being cold and reserved to her, knew she was quite mature.

He could not take a nap in his room because Disya kept delirious. Finally he decided to sleep in his mother's room. Somehow his footsteps suddenly led him to Binar's room. He doesn't know either.

Devina saw mom's room very neat. There is a complete picture of his extended family that is plastered on the wall. The photo was taken while her birth mother, Berliana, was still alive. Then there's a picture of him and Disya with the Papi. And lastly, a photo of her alone with Disya.

"Why isn't there a picture of Mommy alone here?" gumam Devina.

Even at the small table near her Mammya bed, there was only a small figura with a picture of her and her twin, Disya. Lots of pictures of him and Disya.

He and his twin were not the children of Binar. But his picture and Disya are very much in Binar's room. Then he sat down by the bed and his hands stretched open a drawer.

Srekk...

The drawer is open. Where the drawer is unlocked. He found a picture of his mother inside. In the frame contains a photo of Binar alone while wearing a toga shirt and received a trophy and charter as the best graduate in the Bachelor of Medicine (S1) program at Gajah Mada University, Yogyakarta.

A smile appeared on Devina's face. He felt proud of his mother in terms of the school that turned out to be very accomplished. Binar does have advantages in terms of education when compared to Berliana.

Devina finally got on the bed of Binar. When he lay his head down for a few minutes on the pillow, he felt something strange. He got up and lifted the pillow he was wearing.

His eyes were surprised to see something under his pillow.

Degs...

Seriate...
