As soon as he heard the voice of a man behind him, Ricko immediately turned around. He looked at Anton who was now staring dislike at him.
Meanwhile, Anton who saw there was a man coming to visit the house of Rina of course feel suspicious, lest the man who came was his rival to get the love of Rina back.
For quite a while the two men stared at each other and threw dislike gazes at each other. In fact, just getting to know each other they still have not, suddenly just meet the two directly like a mortal enemy.
Ms. Marwah who saw the bad reaction between the two when they first met also immediately raised her voice. Before the chaos ensued, he had to prevent it as quickly as possible. Even though Marwah was sure that Ricko would not start a commotion first because he was an educated person, but Marwah was worried that Anton would do so.
"Anton, quickly clean the front room, if Rina sees that there is still a dirty room when she goes down, she will definitely return to scold you" said Ms. Marwah.
Instantly Anton feels his pride falling in front of Ricko. With his status as Erika's biological father but being treated like a maid in his ex-wife's own house, it certainly made him very embarrassed.
Actually Anton was not treated like a maid in the house of Rina, rather he was indeed a new maid in the house, replacing the position of aunt who still took the rations leave until this moment. In fact, Anton had been in the house for a few weeks, but the aunt still did not return.
Anton realized, Rina must have deliberately treated him unkindly, it was so that he immediately left the house, but not Anton if he gave up that easily. Wanting as bad as anything Rina treated her, she would stay in that house until anytime. There was still Erika who he could use to persuade Rina to come back to him.
"Anton, why are you quiet?" asked Marwah when she saw the man still standing in a place like a statue. "Hurry up, do your job" he said later. Inevitably Anton was forced to move out of front of Ricko.
"Mom, why did you tell her to do ART work?" ricko asked curiously and did not understand. "She's Rina's ex-husband, isn't she, Erika's dad? And ... have they been referred? Why is he staying on one roof with you here?"
Ms. Marwah gave a rude snort then answered all of Ricko's questions one by one until it was clear without making anyone who heard her misunderstand.
"That's the real story, Doctor," said Ms. Marwah.
After hearing all the stories from Marwah, Ricko was finally able to smile with relief. It turned out that everything was not as he had imagined.
"Ma, come, Ma. Let's go down." Erika's voice sounded from the direction of the stairs.
"Tante Rina, come ...." And now Aurora's voice is also heard.
"Yes, yes, but slowly. How do we fall?" said Rina. It seemed like the two little girls were forcing him to go downstairs.
As the three of their feet set off from the final steps, Erika and Aurora immediately pulled Rina towards the dining table where Ricko and maam Marwah were at the moment.
"Sit down, have breakfast first" Marwah told Rina. "Kids, come sit down, please" take Miss Marwah. The middle-aged woman then poured 3 cups of tea along with a plate of cake for the three of them.
"Good morning, Doc." Rina greeted doctor Ricko awkwardly. Had Erika and Aurora not forced him to go out of the room and downstairs, he would have preferred to have the mattress incubated for the whole day.
"Morning," Ricko replied with a smile looking at the newly awakened face of her beloved woman. This morning Rina still looks very beautiful even without the slightest makeup polish on her face.
"Aurora, so last week you went to the zoo but didn't take me?" said Erika.
"I'm sorry I forgot. If I take you with me, you'll leave, Eri?" ask Aurora.
"of course. Every Sunday I feel bored at home. My mother always didn't want to go out of the room" Erika replied.
"Kids, how about we go for a walk together today?" ricko Proposal.
"You want to" Erika and Aurora replied simultaneously. The two little girls looked very happy and excited.
"But Aunt Rina also has to go for a walk, yes. Because otherwise, Aurora would definitely cry and would not want to stop until Aunt Rina would come along," Aurora said slightly threatening to make everyone laugh.
Not wanting to make Aurora and Erika sad, Rina was forced to say yes, even though she actually felt bad about having to go with the man she had always wanted to avoid lately.

1 Hour Later.
Rina and the children were done getting ready, while Ricko was waiting for them downstairs with Marwah. Anton who saw the four of them walking together towards Ricko's car immediately asked Marwah.
"Mom, where are they all going?" ask Anton curiously.
"Street around."
"Where to go, Mom?"
"Animal garden" answered Marwah briefly, then turned to leave Anton still standing on the porch.
"What's? So they're gonna take a walk to the zoo." Just now Anton was intending to come with them, but as soon as he turned his head, Ricko's car had already sped towards the gate.
"Rina! Lina! Eri! I'm coming!" he shouted while running after Ricko's car. But it's useless because now Ricko's car has driven on the highway.
"Blognal!" Anton kicked in any direction out of annoyance. "I won't let that man take Rina away from me. I had to find a way to catch up with them" he muttered later, then looked for a taxi for him to ride.
