Touch Me Slowly's

It's Back

"Where are we going, Nis?" The soon-to-be-married couple sat side by side in the back seat of the car.

His assistant was sitting in the steering chair, carrying the car at moderate speed.

"We're going to papi's house with mami."

"Well?" mike didn't know.

"You forgot?"

"Forgot what?"

Sweet clucked, taking out a small gift with a pink ribbon that decorated it from inside the bag.

"Gift?" mike asked, frowning.

"Yes, it's my birthday today."

Mike was speechless, trying to remember what day it was. "So this is for—"

"Yes, this gift is for mommy. You who will love this same mami." cut Sweet to offer a gift that he has prepared for his future father-in-law.

"Why should I, anyway, Nis? Just let's go," Mike was embarrassed.

"Yesterday he said he wanted to apologize to mom? This is your chance to talk to your mom, Mike...."

The crossbred man fell silent again with a doubtful heart. What if Linda ignores him after what she's been doing to him? Mike is afraid that Linda will not forgive him for all his deeds.

"Not to think anymore, let's go down...." Sweet open the car door, get out first from inside there.

The luxury house with a thick European design that looks quite crowded at the big family Mike. There were no more strange gazes pointing at Sweet like when he first set foot here.

It seems like the strange gaze of the past on Sweet, came from Angela's family. His family was a little arrogant, and always came to visit Moses' house if the man had a birthday like yesterday. This time the atmosphere of the house looks warmer and much more cheerful.

"Mom." Sweet approached the woman who was sitting near the park.

"Where's mike?" tanyanya did not find her grandson beside Sweet.

"She's got someone on Oma...."

"From someone? Who?"

Sweet smile, a little slouch whispering in Jessie's ear. The woman was shocked and hurriedly stood up from the chair.

"Let's go there, Nis."

"Why Oma?" tanya Sweet plain.

"We have to be witnesses to how your naughty husband would be better off with Linda."

Sweet nodded obediently, helping Jessie go towards the kitchen. The gray-eyed man was sitting restlessly opposite Linda when the two arrived there.

"Why are you Mike?" linda asked, breaking the silence between them.

Not usually Mike wants to sit with him here, the man avoids him more and does not even want to get close to him long ago.

"I want...." Mike hung up his words, confused what to say.

His mind immediately blenk with a chest that feels tight. It turns out that it is so difficult to apologize to people who we have been ugly, he murmured.

"What do you want?" ask Linda again.

"I'd like to ask for a chicken stew, Ka Linda.." said Mike bowed, not daring to look at the woman in front of him.

Linda flinched, shocked to hear Mike's words just now. "What did you say Mike?" tanyanya.

"I want Ka's chicken stew, the brother I've been making for me, right?" Mike looked up doubtfully.

Linda shut her mouth in disbelief, and she had never heard Mike call her that.

The dark brown eye bead heats up with the corner of the eye that starts to water. Linda could not hide the happiness in her heart at this moment. His little Mike was back, the man's eyes were already staring back at him warmly and lovingly.

Linda reflexively got up from the chair, and hugged Mike who was sitting quietly in front of her. "Thank you, thanks for believing in Linda, Mike."

The crossbred man replied to Linda's warm embrace on his shoulder and cried along. The guilt that is so deep actually makes Mike unable to say sorry for his stepmother. Mike was afraid Linda would not forgive him if she said that one word to him.

"I love you Mike" Linda said in tears.

The woman's heart was so happy to be able to hug Mike again after so long. Linda is grateful that finally today can come at the right time.

"I love you too Ka Linda...."

Two people who had listened to the conversation had also cried, Sweet and Jessie were happy to see Mike finally willing to accept Linda back.

...*********************...

"So you know everything?" moses sat behind his desk chair.

Mike nodded, petrified in front of the grizzled man.

"Then, now? What do you want?" Moses folded his hands on the table, staring at Mike's deep gray bead of eyes.

"When are we going to the park?" mike asked, making Moses laugh.

"How old do you think Mike is? Your question does not match your already big body." Moses sneered at his son from top to bottom.

"Only people who want to go to the park must see old age, so?"

"Yes, Papi, it's a wonder that you're suddenly like Papi."

"Not to be surprised, Papi just answer when Papi wants to take me to the park with Ka Linda."

Moses smiled with a warm heart, this was the first time they spoke like parents and children who love each other.

His Mike is back, his son who likes to whine to be taken to the park is now standing in front of him with pleading eyes, just like in the past.

Mike always came to his study and cried for him to be taken to the park. His son liked to go there long before he knew Linda.

"But you don't have time today Mike, maybe later this weekend we can go there with your Ka Linda...."

Mike laughed at his father's words. The man who used to always say he wanted to take her to the park met Linda, sitting staring at her warmly in front of him.

Mike recalled how Moses always asked about the clothes he was wearing that day before meeting his stepmother. Moses looks like a young, unstable man who has just felt love.

"Do I need to pick a dress for Papi?" joked Mike still laughed.

Moses laughs with his son, the two immediately engage in an exciting conversation considering the old times that have long passed.

Father and son hope that the happiness of their family will never disappear again after this.
