A Sugar Baby
Pampering Lele
"Haha."
Lea laughed at Daniel's story about Ellio's behavior in the hospital.
"Sampe all the time, um Ellio?"
"Yes, he was so scared that his face was all right. It's old too."
"Haha." Leah laughed again.
"But you've been given a prescription?" ask Lea.
"Udah."
"It's also a shower, right?"
"Udah, it's all clean. The car was sterilized as well. And tomorrow don't use that car, you're afraid to catch it."
"Yes, I've never had chicken pox" either."
"That's why."
"Dert."
"Dert."
Sounding call notifications. Lea and Daniel both looked at Daniel's phone. And there's Grace's name. Daniel looked at Lea as if asking for her approval.
"Have a moment" said Lea.
The man then raised the call.
"Hallo."
And there came Grace's voice across, the woman speaking at length.
"Ok." Daniel replied later.
The conversation ended shortly.
"Why?" ask Lea.
Daniel took a breath.
"Daddy." she replied in a lethargic tone.
"He was arrested with his girlfriend" he continued.
Leah was silent, she didn't know what to sympathize with or. On one side Edmund is Daniel's real father. But on the other hand Edmund also had bad behavior, especially against his wife and his own children. Daniel himself was also confused, whether he should pity or even happy.
The two of them were silent now, not knowing what to say.

Tomorrow.
"Lea, you're not in college?"
Daniel asked Leah when it was noon, but she did not leave the room.
"Males mas." said Lea as she wriggled, then pulled the blanket.
"Why?"
Daniel approached Leah and sat down with his wife.
"But males mas. I want to sleep."
"You sick?" Daniel touched the woman's forehead.
"No, it's males."
"Yes, you rest at home."
"Not working?"
Daniel took a breath.
"You want me home?"
Lea nodded.
"Today is a day."
Daniel was silent, yesterday he had a weekend off. But it seems like Lea is indeed in need of her today.
"Ok." she answered later.
"Truly mas?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Yei." Leah hugged Daniel and vice versa.
"Just today, you want to say I'm a layanin" Daniel said.
"Ye, cool." Leah hugged Daniel. This time Daniel kissed his wife.
The day began with Daniel making breakfast. He really didn't tell Lea to be busy that morning. After making breakfast, he feeds Lea. Then the man continued to clean the house. Even Leah took a bath, she carried him to the bathtub.
"Mas, I'm grinning this morning" Lea said.
Daniel laughed and bathed his wife.
"Do you want to clean up immediately or do you want to soak first?" ask Daniel.
"You take a dip first." replied Lea.
"Yes, I'm cooking for lunch."
"Will you cook?"
"Yes, you call me if you're already soaking."
So Daniel left Leah alone in the bathtub. He went to the kitchen to cook lunch. Although this is still at 10 am, but he will be relieved if all has been done. So later in the day they just eat.
***
A few minutes passed, and Lea finished her bath. But it would have been too colossal if he had called Daniel. He finished the shower alone. He soon left the room after getting dressed.
"Mas, cook what?" lea asked Daniel, who was still in the kitchen.
"More."
Daniel showed the results of his cooking that had been placed on the dining table. The rest is still boiling on the stove.
"Well good." said Lea.
"Yes dong, I'm the cook." replied Daniel.
"Dert."
"Dert."
There was a call on Daniel's phone, it was Ellio.
"And."
"Why?"
"Lo same Richard has no intention to look at me what?"
"I told Richard first. Have you eaten the same as taking medicine yet?"
"Well, I'm taking medicine but I haven't eaten."
"Because, I should eat first."
"What people are confused about eating. Wanted to do it too mager."
"Yes, I ate it. Ntar to deliver online."
"Yes, I want to." said Ellio.
"Kayak ngurus baby ya mas." said Lea while laughing.
"Emang." replied Daniel.
"It's usually worse than this. Ask me what, what." he continued later.
Lea laughed, and Daniel ordered food for his friend. After taking care of Ellio's old baby, Daniel also finished his kitchen business assisted by Lea.
"You just sit down, baby, today let me." Daniel said as he cleared everything.
"It's okay mas, let's spout."
"This man dikit doang koq."
"It's okay" Lea said again.
Daniel let Leah help him. If not, the debate will be long.
"Would you eat now?" ask Daniel when everything is done.
"Ntar aja mas, just watch yuk...!" bring Lea.
"Wanna watch?" ask Daniel.
"Yes." Yeah."
"Yes, it's okay."
Daniel and Lea move up, to watch.

On the same day.
Sharon got a call from the hospital, that her mother's condition had dropped. Sharon, who was accompanied by Maya and Tasya, immediately came there and saw the doctor in charge of her mother.
The doctor said his mother needed more serious treatment. And that of course should be referred to a larger hospital.
Sharon is in the waiting room of the patient. He was really confused thinking about the cost.
"What land do I sell?"
Sharon asked Maya as well as Tasya.
"Let me stay in a contract" he continued.
"But Sha, it's a pity that it's sold as well" Maya said.
"Yes, Sha. As if it could be a savings for later." timpal Tasya.
"So I have to find money how to buy, Bag. I'm still in college, what job I want."
"Well, what cake, you try to make a YouTube channel, so that's just a little bit."
"But to get to the top and make money, we need time" Sharon said.
"Yes, anyway." Maya looks at Tasya and vice versa.
"How do you think dong?" ask Maya again.
"Have you found a job?"
"Udah too, but the top salary is 3 million. That's a new payday next month. While nyokap I need many times more than that."
Sharon threw her gaze into a corner. Now the woman is really confused. But soon after, suddenly there was a message notification that entered his cellphone.
"Sharon, this is Herman. If you need help, call this number."
Sharon fell silent, from where her father's friend got her phone number. However, the offer said Herman slightly disturbed his mind now.
