"Bell's, are we really going to camp here?' ask Reyhan as soon as they have arrived at the destination location.
"True Dad, this is the place. It is in accordance with the directions." said Isabella while getting out of the car with a happy heart.
"Let's get the stuff down. I've brought complete equipment for us camping here, and of course we will stay in the tent tonight." added Isabella who has now opened the back baggage and dropped some items.
"Dad, don't shut up. Let's help me put the stuff down." exclaimed Isabella on her daddy who was still a little remembered by the idea of her beloved daughter.
"You must have made this plan long ago. Otherwise how can you catch this." Reyhan said as he helped the princess unload some items from the back of the car trunk.
"It's Dad, don't think about it. What matters is that your child is happy, heeee."
Reyhan could no longer argue his son's words. Although actually for the tent and overnight this is what makes Reyhan not feel good to Andrea.
She and Andrea are divorced. They are no longer a couple. What makes both of them must remain committed to always communicate well is because for the sake of their children.
But sometimes, Isabella always makes ideas that require Reyhan and Andrea to contract physically indirectly.
Once upon a time, Bella played a pretty silly game. Closing both eyes of his parents and he told both parents to find each other an item. As a result, not the items they found, Reyhan and Andrea clash with each other to the point that they fell over each other.
After Reyhan's tent was set up, Isabella and Alden seemed enthusiastic to enter the tent. The two kids were constantly joking.
Andrea herself was busy preparing the food. By arranging a mat, Andrea neatly arranged the food and drinks that they would eat all for lunch.
"Rey, help me light the fire." asked Andrea to Reyhan who was having trouble lighting the fire in a grill. Reyhan then approached Andrea, and helped to light the fire on the grill.
"Children are hungry, let me help you bake them."
"OK,"
Finally, Reyhan and Andrea team up to bake the sausage, and the steak they had brought from home.
Once everything is ready, Andrea then calls Isabella and Alden. And they also enjoy the lunch with a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere in their place to camp.

"Rey," said Andrea to Reyhan while wearing a thick jacket that night. Andrea approached Reyhan who appeared to be relaxing near a campfire not far from the tent.
"Not sleeping." Reyhan asked with a sweet smile.
"I can't sleep. If it wasn't for Isabella, I wouldn't want to camp like this." lamented Andrea, then he sat on a rock that was in a campfire that Reyhan made.
"Why not?" ask Reyhan curiously.
"I mean, we don't have to go sideways in a quiet place like this. There are still many camping locations that look crowded. We're not a married couple anymore, Rey. We are together only because of children." Andrea explained.
"I thought so at first too. But haven't we been friends long enough, even 7 years we divorced we can still be professional in maintaining good relationships. If asked about feelings, I don't need to explain anymore. I still love you until this moment. But I also have great respect for your decision. Are you engaged to Julian. That means, you have managed to throw away your feelings for me." Reyhan said.
"It's best not to talk about the past. I don't want to bring that back."
Reyhan then let out a heavy sigh. And smile bitterly.
"Life has taught me a lot about the meaning of loyalty. About the meaning of togetherness, and also dive into the feelings of children. I am very comfortable with my life now. With my kids and work, that's all I'm happy."
"Why are you looking for a life companion. We are the same still need a partner," said Andrea, while looking into Reyhan's eyes who was also looking at Andrea from a campfire with a full gaze.
"Yes, I still need a partner. Of course I still want to. Unfortunately, I don't want to find a new partner. What if I wait for you?"
Deg, immediately Andrea's heart trembled upon hearing Reyhan's revelation.
Reyhan's statement has remained the same so far. He was still waiting for Andrea to be able to receive her back. And he hadn't said that in a long time. And tonight, that revelation he heard again.
"That can't be Rey. I'm already engaged. I'm getting married to Julian soon. Don't wait for me. You deserve and deserve a better woman than me. I know, in the past as your wife I was also a lot wrong. I was too busy and I was too busy. Even children are closer to you than I am. I am not a good mother and may not be a good wife" Andrea said humbly.
"You're the perfect woman Andrea. You're a good mother, and also a good wife. I was the one who was less grateful. Do not mistake yourself, about children, do not take heart. As long as you're always trying to be a good mother, they'll understand. The important thing is that you always pay attention to them."
And suddenly the conversation about the child always makes Andrea's heart sound. And now both his eyes were dewy with tears.
"I'm just afraid not to be loved by my own children." lamented Andrea who now even more tears.
"I don't really want to be too busy with work. In fact being the CEO of her two big companies really seized as my attention."
Seeing the ex-wife who is now sad, makes Reyhan even more heartless. He then stood up, and set foot toward Andrea. He sat down next to Andrea. With a slight hesitation, Reyhan touched Andrea's shoulder from behind. And stroking it slowly. It was the first touch after a long time he did not touch his ex-wife.
"Prophe Andrea, don't be sad. After all, you also bear the great responsibility of the company. A lot depends on you. Those employees, all those workers. They're all so proud of you. Because from your company they can support their families. Don't mellow" Reyhan said.
"Thank Rey. Thank you for giving me support."
"The same," Reyhan then pulled his hand after Andrea felt calmer.
Reyhan, Andrea, Julian
