The Third Match.

The Third Match.
I can't be selfish.



Papi Efendi threatened Marsel not out of hatred for him. As a parent, he did not want his daughter to suffer.


"Master... The madam was waiting at the dinner table" the aunt called Efendi over Desty's mami's mane.


"All right" he said short.


"Let's go to the cell" Papi said, rising from his seat.


"Thank you Pi" Marsel followed Efendi to the table, and his wife and son were there. A variety of dishes have been served on the dining table.


"This much food, Mommy cooks it?" He spread his gaze across the table.


"No, Aunt who cooks, most Mami directs" said Mami while serving her husband.


"Your mom is, good at cooking Diah" papi chimed.


"Oh, sometime, I learn to cook with Mami ya" Diah took a plate, scooped rice and put a side dish for Marsel.


"Eat him often here, later Mami taught" mami then scooped rice for him.


"When can I learn to cook with Mami, right?" ask Diah to Marsel.


"May" replied Marsel who had been silent since thinking about the assertiveness of Mr. Efendi. He still did not dare to look at his face.


Mr. Efendi although a shady face but if anyone bothers his family can turn violent.


"Your wife is smart at cooking not Cells?" ask Mami later.


Marsel and Diah looked at each other and laughed. "Hehe boro-boro is smart Mi, even I can't cook at all, this morning, I made a cake but hard" Diah said.


"The patient Diah... Mami used to be so, too" Mami Desty encouraged.


"Mama once cooked an egg omelet, but it's still raw inside, hihihi" Lita chimed in and all laughed.


"You, open the card" Diah touched Lita's laughing nose.


"Here come, eat" said Mami. They continued to eat lunch even though it was very tense at first. However, Mr. Efendi, the warm atmosphere was melting again.


Until the afternoon, Marsel invited his family home.


"Pi, how did Marsel answer when Papi asked about his household?" ask Mami when Marcel is gone.


"We'll see Mi" replied papi.


"Assynoltom..."


"Waalaikumsalam.." When Mr. Efendi and Mami Desty were chatting on the porch of the house, Juliana had just returned to college.


"Well you're late, your sister just got home" Mami said as Juli kissed her cheek, and salim papi.


"Yes Pi, yeah, even though I want to talk to Diah's sister" July regretted.


"Tomorrow if there are no hours of college you just go there" said papi.


"Yes too yes Pi" Juliana excited.


*********


The next day at Vood snack, Marsel appeared to hold a meeting with the nutrition researchers before the new product would be made.


It is common before the product launching on the market, Marsel always ensures that the products made by his company do not harm consumers.


As a Vood snack entrepreneur Marsel always monitors that products from his company have sufficient nutritional standards, because most of his fans are children.


Until 10 am, Marsel, Aldo, and Siska just came out of the meeting room.


"After this there's a meeting schedule where Sis?" marsel asked as they walked into the room.


"Alright" he said and then entered the room. But her steps stopped when Bella was waiting in the room.


"How many times have I warned Bella, don't come into my room!" ketus Marsel then shifted the chair in the follow Siska put the documents on Marsel's desk.


"You may go out Siska" he said.


"Good Master" Siska immediately came out until at the door staring at the glance of Bella's pouting face, then closed the door.


"Do, don't go in" said Siska as Aldo wanted to follow Marsel into the room.


"Why?" Aldo stopped in front of Siska's table, frowning.


"There's a bini" replied Siska quietly.


"Which one is this?" insist Aldo.


"Bella" said Siska. "I'm so confused Do, why the hell did Mr. Marsel have a wife of two, huh! if I do not want to marry, if it has to be combined so" Siska murmured.


"Kok you're the sewot, who just go through with them there's no problem right?" Aldo opened both palms.


"Do, do you think? Marsel's fair, isn't he?" search Siska.


"Where do I know! if Marsel ever told me, he said he was in divorce proceedings with Bella and would make Diah happy."


"If in my thinking, there's no way Bella will be divorced, inside they're trying! very long time" said Siska.


"Stupid time! it was their business, so I became a rich gibah of women, because of loe nih," Aldo passed away leaving Siska.


Siska nodded and then continued to work.


While in the room. "Please El, let me meet Lita, I just want to apologize to her. I realized that I didn't want to take it away from you, I just wanted her to know that I was her real Mommy, that's all, if she refused, that was my consequence, because I had already left her" Bella whining.


"Whatever, but I'm asking, you'll have to ask Diah's permission first." Marsel eventually relents, despite how Bella is Lita's biological mother and Lita deserves to know.


"Thank you Ell" Bella then left Marsel. Marsel could only sigh. He squeezed his chin riled, why his problem became pervading everywhere.


*******


In front of the school, when Diah came to pick up Lita, Bella also came. Both of them put on a wry look.


"Now it's my turn to pick up Calista, because of me, Ello's permission" Bella said.


"Ijin Marsel, where did you meet?" search Diah.


"I just got out of the office, didn't I tell Diah, we still meet" Bella grinned.


So Bella likes to come to the office, so why didn't Marsel tell me?


"If you don't believe me, just call Marsel now" he said in a snobbish tone.


Without saying much, Diah moved away from the place and contacted Marsel. Turns out that Marsel confirmed Bella's words. Diah immediately disconnected the phone connection unilaterally. He felt sad, and disappointed, his legs felt weak.


"Alright this time Ma'am won" he said. Diah leaves Bella. Doesn't make fun of Bella's mocking laughter.


As powerful as he returned to the parking lot of the motor. However, he did treat her as an adult. He should not be ogois, if indeed Lita wants to be with her birth mother, Diah can what.


By running his motorbike Diah better go from there to make room for Lita to be closer to her mother.


Diah also has a child of course feel how she wants to always be close to her child, maybe Bella's feelings are the same.


Remember boy, Diah runs his bike not toward Marsel's house. However, heading to the residence of the Rose to meet Syifa. Since Bali, Diah has not visited her daughter.
