Babysitter For Rain
CHAPTER 39

Ana sat in the living room feeling uneasy. Doni, his dad's still in the kitchen making drinks. While Marius and Naomi had gone to the garden behind the villa to make BBQ preparations, the usual thing to do when they stayed at the villa.

Accompanied by the sound of the waves roaring in the distance, Ana recalls Naomi's message before she goes to the back. "Don't be so angry, Ana. Om Doni has a reason why he's doing this."

"What reason is so important that you have to play a show like this?" Ana thought.

Doni came with two cups of drink in his hand. A cup of tea for Ana, and a cup of coffee for herself. He placed it on the table in front of Ana.

"So, why did you lie to Ana?" asked Ana as soon as her papa was sitting next to her. His feelings are mixed. On one hand he was relieved that his father was fine. But on the other hand, there is anger because it turns out that it was all a lie.

"Do you remember Papa Ernest and Mama Agnes?" asked Doni.

Ana nodded her head.

"Father Ernest and Mama Agnes were the parents of Adam and Marius" Doni explained.

Ana was surprised to hear that. Ana met Father Ernest and Mama Agnes several times when she was a child. Samar is still remembered by Ana, but he does not think that they are the parents of Marius and Adam.

She remembers her father telling her stories about Papa Ernest and Mama Agnes. Yes, because of that closeness, Ana also called them with the call of Papa and Mama.

Mama Alya who is Ana's mother and also Mama Agnes are friends since they were little in France.

Oma and Opa Ana had just moved to France, so everything felt foreign to Mama Alya who was 8 years old at the time. Until finally Mama Alya met a peer in France, namely Mama Agnes.

Since meeting Mama Agnes, Mama Alya has adapted very well. They have been best friends since they first met.

When Mama Agnes was 18 years old, she was betrothed to Papa Ernest who was the son of an Indonesian conglomerate. They eventually married and settled in Indonesia. Mama Alya also returned to Indonesia. Three years later, Mama Alya meets Papa Doni who is Papa Ernest's best friend, and they eventually get married.

After Mama Alya died, Ana still met Mama Agnes and Papa Ernest several times.

"Just right, Ana never remembered the house Marius occupied. Because when I met Mama Agnes and Papa Ernest was always in a hotel or villa," Ana recalled her meeting with them.

"So, the brother who was Adam at the time?" he continued.

Ana recalls that when she was 6 years old, she had met Mama Alya who was accompanied by a man she recognized as her son. His face gave the impression that he was a very gentle person.

"Yes, he is Adam. He was 18 years old" replied Doni.

"But Ana never saw Marius" Ana said.

"Marius has been in school in France since he was 9 years old, about 2 years before you met Adam."

"But, Ana never met Papa Ernest and Mama Agnes while staying at Marius' house. Where are they now?"

"When you were 12 years old, Mama Agnes passed away" Doni said with her own face. Ana was surprised to hear that. Because he never knew about this. During her stay there, Ana also never asked anything. Because he was afraid of offending Marius.

"That time you were hospitalized for inflammation of the stomach. Three years later, Papa Ernest passed away. At that time you also can not go there, because you have a trip to get out of town. After that, papa forgot to tell you."

"Three years ago, when Adam died, Marius came to find his father, and told him the news of Adam's death. Since then Papa and Marius have been in frequent contact."

"Marius often told me many things, especially about Rain who became his attention. At that time he was worried about Rain's nannies who had always resigned exactly three months, the reason was always unreasonable. He was worried that it would affect Rain. He needs someone he can trust. But he didn't want Eli to recruit him."

"Because of that papa offered Ana?," asked Ana fiercely.

"Yes. At first Marius refused, but Papa forced him. He won't interfere with your work. But for papa, you better be with Marius than you keep working there" replied Doni sebal.

"Why don't papa and Naomi not like the company?" asked Ana upset.

"If not what?" asked Ana in surprise.

"Forget it ... Papa was wrong."

"Ana should have known 100 million was definitely impossible."

"If it wasn't you, no one would believe it" Doni said with a small laugh. "Even Naomi doesn't know if she should feel proud or sad about your innocent thinking."

"Father!!." Ana almost screamed out of regret. Her own father could casually after lying to her.

"It's not for no reason papa offered you to Marius, Ana," said Doni who turned serious this time.

"Papa knows Rain. We met a few times. Papa is sure you will like it. Because you and Rain have the same nature. Papa thinks you know better than papa while you're together."

"Papa's right" Ana said in her heart. After her papa said that, Ana became aware of something that their closeness had been, because Ana glanced at Rain. He saw himself in Rain.

When he meets Rain for the first time, Rain is a shy and quiet child. How could Ana think she actually had such a big thing in her heart?

Ana seemed to know what she wanted. Every time Ana tries to catch his attention. Ana seemed to know what was on her mind. So, therefore why all this time Ana could always easily take the child's heart.

"You've had Naomi. He who sees you completely, understands you completely, and loves you. Naomi protected you too. Although papa can do all that, but Naomi does it better than papa."

"While Rain .. she only had Marius. He's just like papa, Ana. So I asked Marius to take you into his house. Because papa is sure, you can become Naomi for Rain. And it turns out to be true, right?"

Hearing her papa's explanation, Ana's anger gradually began to subside. Recalling everything that had happened recently, Ana felt she should have thanked her father for giving him the chance to meet Rain. Even Ana never regretted the moment she asked for resignation back then.

"You've done a good thing, Ana," said Doni again as she stroked her son's hair gently. "Even Marius did not expect all the findings."

"Why not be afraid to let go of your daughter to a foreign man's house?" asked Ana with a lookout.

Doni laughed at Ana's question. "If you don't know Marius well, you won't offer help from the beginning either, Ana. Even Naomi didn't drag you out of there, which means she trusts Marius."

"Right, Naomi didn't say anything after that" she thought.

"So, Naomi knew from the beginning?" cried Ana.

"Naomi found papa last month. Since then he knows everything" Doni said with a laugh.

"Where have you been living all this time?" asked Ana astonished.

"Home on. Therefore, he sent his servant to take care of papa at home. Papa refused, but Marius sent it anyway. "

"And he didn't say anything to me" Ana said annoyedly.

"Rusan Rain is done, you are also finally out of your work. At least, papa has completed 2 jobs at once," said Doni again proudly.

"Papa!!," cried Ana annoyed.

"You're still a long time, huh?" cried Naomi suddenly from the back door. "Because if I don't, I'll spend it all. I'm hungry."

"We'll continue later. You must be hungry too, right?" asked Doni.

There's too much for him to accept tonight. Ana felt angry and upset at first, but now slowly dwindled. In retrospect, Ana would not have wanted her father not to have used this method.

It might look wrong, but Ana doesn't mind the result. So, maybe the way is right.
