“Daddy?” It was Doctor Vargas calling his father.
While Mrs Vargas quickly approached her husband and wanted to ask what the man knew.
“You also know it, Willy?” ask Mrs Vargas to the point.
Mr. Vargas nodded. “Ya, already. We'll talk about this later, I want to see my daughter first.”
Without greeting Hadya and Lean, the almost half-century-old bule man immediately slid in and stepped quickly towards the patient bed.
“Excuse me, Mr. Sanjaya. May I see my daughter for a moment?” Despite being unable to resist, Mr. Vargas still knows the limits.
He was well aware of who was now standing before his daughter at this moment. Although he was her father, but the woman was no longer alone. She had married off, someone more entitled to her, regardless of the status of the young master the man held.
Ck, is he going to hug my wife too? Arrrgghh, they shouldn't have just met ....
“Master. Sanjaya,” call Mr. Vargas once again.
“Yes? How about, Mr Vargas? Oh, want to see my wife? Can, please!” he then jumped up onto the patient's bed and sat right next to Caitlyn, fully hugging her.
Mr. Vargas and everyone in the room gawked at Lean's unusually possessive behavior. Mr. Vargas who was about to come forward to approach his daughter became hesitant and disinclined. While Doctor Vargas and his mother giggled at Lean's bucolic attitude.
Hadya cleared her throat and then shook her head. “What are you doing there, Lean. No one wants to take your wife. That man is his father if you forget. Give them time to be together, Son,” scolds Hadya who is embarrassed by her son's attitude.
Lean thunts an upset and then slowly gets out of bed, but again leaves many kisses on his wife's pretty face first. After that, he left and joined his father.
However, those sharp eyes still did not budge the slightest bit from the figure of the wife. He should always keep an eye on his wife at all times and should not be off guard.
“Stop your unwarranted jealousy it's Lean. Your wife has just met her family again, understand a little with their longing that was equally hidden during this time, Nak.” Hadya gave advice.
“Iya, Pa. Yes, I have given space and time, ‘kan?” his words made Hadya laugh.
Next to him Doctor Vargas cleared his throat. “So, now we're in-laws, well, Mister?” ask the doctor.
Lean was slightly surprised then turned her head, looking at the man next to her for a few seconds.
“Yes well, I didn't think up to it since,” said Lean with a frown.
“How would you think that your brain contains only Caitlyn and Caitlyn,” Sambar Hadya with a piercing joke.
Doctor Vargas chuckled, making Lean inevitably laugh. Sometimes he likes to be silly.
“Already, Pa. From now on Papa has been timid I continue in front of my brother-in-law. The more ruined my reputation, Pa.” Lean's real grunt wasn't real.
The three men were different generations and laughed together. Mrs Vargas joined Caitlyn and her husband.
“This is your Daddy, Darling.” The words of Mrs Vargas roused her husband from daydreams.
Since Lean had moved from there, the Caucasian man was not determined to approach, but stunned without knowing what to start a conversation with his daughter like.
“Daddy,” call Caitlyn with her gentle tone. Faintly, fog began to dance in his vision, preparing to launch a cloudy-looking one hanging on the eye crest.
In that instant William advanced his wide stride and instantly scooped up the tiny body of his daughter in a loving embrace. The father and son hugged each other with tears.
“Yes, it's daddy, honey. Daddy, who misses you all the time, has been looking for you here and there for years. Daddy really misses this daddy's only daughter.” Mr. Vargas tightened his embrace often Caitlyn's increasingly powerful cry.
As Mr. Vargas remembers, this is if all three of them cried in life during adulthood. The first time it happened when he stood under the altar and made a sacred promise to marry a beautiful girl from Indonesia who was willing to follow him live far away in the land of people, in Seattle there. That girl is now the mother of her three children.
The second time she cried when she lost her only child daughter. And this was his third time when he met his little daughter again.
“Excuse me, can mommy join?” mrs Vargas asked with a hoarse voice and a face filled with tears.
Caitlyn raised her face that was leaning on her father's chest. She smiled in tears and asked her mother to join. The three then embraced warmly. The middle-aged couple took turns showering Caitlyn's face lovingly.
From where he sat, Lean's hand lifted up and wiped off the wet end of his eyes. A small smile was faintly imprinted on his handsome face. For this time alone, he let another man hug his wife's body. The man who became the wife's first love, long before knowing her.
Lean then turned her head to the side looking at Doctor Vargas who was also holding back tears seeing the haru scene in front of her.
“You don't want to join there, Doctor?” lean asked and the doctor looked doubtfully at him. Lean threw her gaze in any direction. “This time only, only for this time I allow it.” Understand the meaning of the doctor's gaze.
“You sure, Mister?” Still hesitating because he had seen how possessive Lean was.
“Or want me to cancel it?” Lean's face looked indifferent and returned flat.
In that instant without asking for permission or refuting again, Doctor Vargas immediately stepped quickly towards the place where his family had gathered.
Once he had stood near the three people there, the blaster-faced man immediately pretended to cough. The thing he did was to interrupt the mellow activities that were happening there.
“Em, does anyone remember me here?” The man's faint smile made Caitlyn smile but was confused.
“Come, Brother.” William called his eldest son to join immediately.
However, Caitlyn reflexively squealed a little with one hand raised stopping the movement of the doctor who was about to scatter into her embrace.
“Wait, wait! So, this kind doctor is my sibling?” caitlyn asked with her eyes bulging.
“Yes, Darla. He's your older brother.” William answered proudly with a smile.
“Really?” Caitlyn screeched restrained. The light in his eyes could not be hidden.
There is a feeling of happiness that seeps in the heart of the beautiful pregnant woman. He felt his life was perfect. She is happy to have a complete parent as well as an older brother whom she has long craved.
For a girl who has long lived apart since childhood with her parents, of course she misses the figure of an older brother who can be a protector. However, Caitlyn never found the figure. He just found it in Rendi, but really not this happy.
This was truly his elder brother, the elder brother who had the same blood in their bodies. A big brother definitely loves him.
“Yeah, Darl!” william exclaimed once again followed by a nod of the head of Mrs Vargas and and the doctor.
Caitlyn laughed and cried at the same time. This feeling is hard to describe. Quickly his hand dispelled random tears racing down his cheek. He then opened both of his hands in a slightly raised grudge position, as if asking for a hug.
“Sister,” great-grandson Caitlyn as the doctor carries her small body in his arms.
Lean simply smiled to see the beautiful moment that his wife had been waiting for all this time. Suddenly Hadya's hand slapped his son's shoulder.
“Papa is proud of you, son. You have completed all of this quickly.” A happy smile was evident on the tired lines on Hadya's face.
“All this will not be easy if there is no strong bond between them, Pa. Lean just opens a little way, the rest of them do themselves with the power of love,” said Lean still smiling.
“Whatever it is, papa is proud of you. Don't forget to please your wife. Because if you hurt him, papa's sure your in-laws will take him and bring him back to their home country. Don't forget he's bule, loh.”
The father and son laughed as they embraced each other.
