A Heart Bond
Bumil

Fill the human heart, who knows. In fact, it can sometimes change in just the blink of an eye. And it is always a mystery to another heart to understand it.

"Sorry ma'am, can I eat here for a minute?" Naina asks Parto's wife.

"Darling, it's night." Beware Dean immediately.

"No papa A'. Si Eneng let me eat for a while. Come on, get in first! But maap, Mother's tea house, less comfortable." The middle-aged woman replied.

"Just for a moment. I want to eat here." Naina Whine.

"Just obey! His wife is pregnant, right?" Sahut Parto's.

"Yes Sir. But, it's getting late. It's not worth it to visit at this hour. Moreover, it had already troubled Father and Mother." Answer Dean honestly.

"No papa or A'. Si Eneng let me eat first. Poor baby is impatient." Timpal wife Parto.

"Come on Neng, come in!" Take Parto's wife, holding Naina's hand.

"Yes ma'am, thank you." Naina answered happily.

Naina was also happy to follow the steps of the friendly woman. While Dean, a little grunt annoyed because Naina did not listen to him. He was very unhappy with Parto and his wife.

"It's okay, sir. Let the Madam eat first! Mr. Parto's, RT's chairman here. So, you don't have to report because you're visiting at a clock like this." Niko says right now, to calm Dean down.

"Oh, Mr RT?" Said Dean.

"Yes, it's." Answer Parto.

The two women were already sitting quietly in the wooden chair in the living room. Chairs with beautiful and detailed carvings on each backrest. Equipped with not so thick foam as a seat and backrest pads.

Parto invites Dean and Niko in. Two men who were almost the same age finally followed Parto into the house.

Parto's house is actually quite spacious. The living room alone is equipped with two sets of chairs as a complement. Not to mention, the bedrooms and other rooms inside.

But they only live together. Their children are married and live in their own homes. So, Parto only lived alone with his wife with a simple lifestyle. Including, Parto who remains an angkringan trader. Although he was rationed monthly money by his three children with a very sufficient amount of course.

Naina immediately opened the plastic she had been carrying.

"Did Mom cook it herself?" Naina asked with her busy hands to open a pack of her cat rice.

"Yes Neng. You're just living together, father." Honest wife Parto.

"So soon, I'll get you a spoon." Imbuh the middle-aged woman.

"Thank you, ma'am'." Naina answered happily.

As Parto's wife picked up the spoon, Naina waved her hand at Dean who was walking towards her. Pat the right foam plan is next to him. Ask him to sit next to her.

Dean's frustration was slowly disappearing to see Naina's smile painted perfectly on her beautiful face that had been bent when at Niko's house.

Dean approached Naina. He sat right next to Naina who was already cool looking at a pack of food that he really wanted tonight. Niko and Parto sat in the other seats.

After Parto's wife came up with her spoon, Naina immediately enjoyed the food that teased her appetite since then. Naina even really enjoyed her first feed with a happy face.

"What's good Mommy?" Parto asked when she saw Naina enjoying her meal.

"Yes sir, it's delicious. I'm a cook for you." Naina said with her mouth still filled with food.

Parto smiled at Naina's reply.

"Honey, slow down! Not while talking! Choking on later." Dean's advice is anxious.

Naina immediately turned her head while grimacing a little.

"Mas want? It's delicious." Naina's bargain after the food in her mouth runs out.

Dean just shook his head.

"One bribe only."

"You eat it! You were the one who wanted to eat that."

"But there are many. I made five packs."

"Come on! It's just a little sea fish. Delicious." Rayu Naina who is quite familiar with Dean's appetite.

Parto and his wife were slightly surprised by Naina's words. But they are beginning to understand, if their guest tonight who has a cross-faced face, may not be a random person. Until he is not used to eating food like Naina is enjoying.

"One day Mas!" Force Naina with a spoon that already contains rice and its complement, ready to be fed to Dean.

Dean was a little confused. He actually also knew, if it was just a sea fish. But he had never eaten it before.

Seeing Naina's enthusiastic facial expression, Dean let out a short sigh. He opened his mouth to take a bribe from his wife. Naina immediately feeds the food in her hand to Dean.

"Enak right?" Tanya Naina is happy.

Dean nodded and smiled as he chewed the food in his mouth. And while Dean was enjoying his meal, Parto's wife came in with four glasses of warm tea on the tray. He then served his drink to the guests.

"So, when you asked to make cat rice for Mas Niko, I think tea, Neng Sinta who craved. It wasn't." Honest wife Parto.

"Not Ma'." Answer Niko briefly.

They chatted while waiting for Naina to enjoy her meal. Naina ends up spending two packs of cat rice with a happy face.

After enough talking, Dean, Naina and Niko retreat. They say goodbye to the host they are ready to bother tonight. Not to forget, Dean asked Niko to give the couple a proper reward, because it was willing to accept guests at such an inappropriate hour.

Parto and his wife refused. But, after being seduced by Naina, they finally want to receive a reward that is really far from the price of five packs of cat rice.

"This is cat rice, Mas. There are several kinds of. Depends seller. I've never eaten, have I?" Naina said happily, as she and Dean were walking down the streets of the capital early today.

"Yes. Do you eat like that often?" Dean replied as he stared at the road ahead, behind his wheel.

"No. I haven't eaten cat rice in a long time. If it used to be, while still in Jogja often eat with Mom." Honest Naina.

Naina also remembered the memories with Sekar a few years ago. How Sekar often accompanied him many things, and took care of him very well.

There was a flash of regret coming to grieve Dean's heart as Naina said that. She begins to imagine how hard Naina's life was when she became pregnant with Rissa without a husband by her side. Living the hardships of life with the baby in the womb, and only accompanied by his mother and adoptive brothers.

Moreover, Dean heard many stories from Sekar, Lea and Hera about what Naina had experienced at that time. Really, Dean really regretted not immediately looking for Naina just yet.

Dean turned to look at Naina who was looking straight ahead. His face began to look sleepy again because it was still dark. Dean rubbed Naina's head gently, until Naina turned her head.

"Sleep again!" Pinta Dean in a soft tone.

Naina was smiling. He immediately confirmed his sitting position and began to close his eyes. Trying to go back to his subconscious and travel in his dreamland.

Upon reaching home, Dean very slowly carried Naina who was still asleep. Atun quickly opened the door for his employer.

"Mother?" Atun asked worriedly, seeing Naina being carried by Dean.

"He's just sleeping." Dean replied softly so as not to wake his wife.

Atun nodded.

"Rissa?" Dean asked briefly.

"Sir Rissa is still sleeping sir." Atun replied no less.

And because of that short conversation, Naina woke up. He began to open his eyes.

"We've arrived yet?" Naina asked in a lazy tone.

"Yes. Sleep again! I carried to the room." Dean replied gently.

Naina, who was still sleepy, went back to sleep in Dean's arms.

"Bak, there's cat rice in the car. Please take it!" Pinta Dean before stepping back.

"Good Sir."

Dean takes Naina to his room. Slowly put his wife on the bed. Naina immediately shuffled to justify her sleeping position. Dean also immediately rested again next to his wife.

Regret is in every human heart. Following step by step the destiny of every heart owner. To be a witness that the heart is alive and has a life to this day.
