A Sugar Baby
Nina (Bonus Part)
Nina's proposal today. Leah and Daniel came with Darriel. Daniel wears a gold batik, while Lea wears a matching colored kebaya.
Darriel herself wears a t-shirt but with a batik motif like her father. Lea was deliberately customing the clothes of the child with such materials. Just so Darriel feels comfortable.
“Hokhoaa.”
He chattered and laughed at the invitations. And when Leah's friends who knew Nina were present and approached, Darriel immediately raised her hand to be carried.
“You guys, later tangled up clothes om Iqbal.”
Daniel tells Darriel, but Darriel hugs his mother's college friend even more.
“It seems he will not care mas, ngikut who aja come.” said Lea.
“It looks like Richard's nature again deh.”
Daniel scapegoated the father-in-law, when such was himself. It used to be that Daniel's baby was an easy kid to come along with. He had heard this from his mother, but he refused to admit it.
Before long the besan party came, everyone including Lea was now looking over. Looks like an officer with a tall sturdy body and a shady face is now stepping.
He smiled looking at Nina and the family standing up to greet her. There were no tears Lea and Vita who watched it all drip.
Both of them remember the old ones. Due to economic needs and wanting to be stylish, they are stuck into human trafficking under the guise of agency models.
Lea was lucky enough to be reunited with Daniel and also his biological father, Richard. But the fate of Nina and Vita is somewhat different with her.
Both of his friends had to go through difficult and dark times in their lives. Falling, waking up, being fooled, being hurt, being betrayed. They have all experienced.
They may be dirty in the eyes of some people. But the most important thing is the determination to change and improve. Now one of them has stepped up to happiness.
The faces of both Nina's prospective in-laws are friendly and unpretentious. In harmony with their handsome and authoritative son.
“Heheee.”
Darriel laughed as everyone was in silence enjoying a solemn silence. Leah glanced at the child, and the baby grunted in Iqbal's arms.
The officer conveyed the intention of proposing to Nina, so Nina's side accepted it all with full force.
“Bapak, mom. May I want to ask Nina to be my life companion?”
“Heheee.”
Darriel laughed in the silent audience and watched all this. Then everyone laughed too. Makes Daniel and Lea feel bad.
“No can be.”
Daniel and Leah warned the child who had not yet moved from Iqbal's lap.
Nina's husband-to-be continues the words, and when Nina responds Darriel laughs again. Again the audience laughed, including Nina and her future husband himself.
Finally the slightly tense proposal turned full of laughter. As Nina was paired with the ring by her fiance, everyone clapped. Darriel clapped her hands, endlessly laughing.
And when the application session was over, everyone took pictures with Nina and her future husband. Darriel gave a reaction to want carried by Nina's future husband.
Nina's future husband sees Darriel and approaches the baby, then welcomes her.
“Mas Darriel mas, ashamed to know me.” said Lea like more unpleasant due to the behavior of the child who was too when going.
Darriel has been brought by Nina's future husband back to the woman.
“Ya look at his son. How to try?” ask Daniel.
“Abis them photos, take a mas. Not good to know, ntar thought our people gave birth to children to others because they want to relax.” he continued later.
Daniel then waits until their photo session with Darriel is over. Then he took the boy and kept him away. Darriel soon wept and Daniel took her out of the building.
“Hokhoaa.”
Darriel blabbed at Daniel, while Daniel only smiled watching.
“No can do that. Darriel wants to go with everyone. Not everyone is strong for a long time carrying you.” said Daniel advises.
Darriel just kept taking out the baby babble that she had.
“Be nice yes. So good boy.” said Daniel.
“Heheee.”
Darriel laughing.
Daniel wiped the remaining tears on the boy's cheek, then they went back inside. Not long after, Darriel fell asleep.
Lea, Vita, and Nina cried in the back. They both remember the same time. Where they go through a lot of weight in life.
“May you be happy always, Nin.” Lea said.
Vita sobbed and wiped her tears. While Nina nodded then hugged her two best friends
“Still yes.” he said later.
The show finally continued until it was finished.
***
At the same time Richard visited Arkana. But they did not meet at Nadya's residence but in the hospital.
Because Nadya brought her only child to the specialist. Arkana hugged Richard, like a son who had not seen his father for a long time. Richard hugged the boy back and accompanied him as much as he wanted.
“Why did not meet Arka.” long ago Arkana said to the man.
“Om work dear, it's been busy lately.”
Richard reasoned and that was all he could reveal at this moment. Because it's easy to understand for a child the age of Arkana.
“When we married Mom and we stayed together in one house. Let Arka have a papa who comes home every day. No going home to auntie or teteh.”
Nadya's heart was struck at hearing all that, while Richard was touched by her soul. It was the honest expression of a lonely child. As a result his father had too many wives and too much time to share with them.
A thing that should open the eyes of men who only think of their own pleasure.
“Arka be patient, all Arka dreams are realized later. Arka pray and ask for the best.” said Richard.
Arka nodded, while Nadya turned her face and wiped her tears with her hands.

Lea and Daniel return from Nina's show. Darriel wakes up and chatters in the middle car seat.
“Wawawa.”
“Heheee.”
“Hokoaaa.”
“Ngoceh just.” said Lea while laughing.
“The name is also Darriel.” said Daniel continues to drive his car.
“Heh Delil, you do not habit ya anything ask for a sling with people. Mama is ashamed to know you did not see your behavior.”
Lea spoke while looking back a little. But instead of listening, Darriel laughed in a loud voice.
“Heheee.”
“Hehe, hehe mulu.” Lea said.
“Heheee.”
“Gemes very mas, want me to pinch strongly it feels.” said Lea.
This time Daniel laughed. For whoever sees Darriel will feel the same. Darriel's too gleeful to be quiet.
