Arriel, Dathan, and Loveta enjoy breakfast together. Loveta looked so happy. Moreover, his mother had already paid attention to him.
“Later after this Mama will take you to school.” Arriel smiled at her daughter. He wanted to pay attention to his son.
“Ye .. school with mama.” Loveta was so happy when her mom said that.
Dathan looked at Arriel. Somehow she felt Arriel changed a little. Arriel never used to deliver school. But, this time he was so excited to deliver his son's school.
Dathan is trying to get rid of bad thoughts about Arriel. His ex-wife who delivered his son made his son happy. So of course he will.
After breakfast, they all left immediately. Arriel sat in the back seat with Loveta. They were both joking. Dathan saw clearly the smiles of Arriel and Loveta. Seeing the smile of the child he was happy. Since the beginning of the divorce, indeed he wanted his son to still feel his parents loved each other.
Car to school. Arriel, Dathan, and Loveta get out of the car. They went to class together.
“Leo, see Mama I take me.” Loveta showed off to her friend.
“Halo, Aunty.” Leo politely greeted.
“Halo.” Arriel smiling.
“Love, let's go in.” Leo invites Loveta to go to class.
“Lolo log in first, Mama.”
“Iya, darling. Learning spirit.” Arriel landed a kiss on the boy's forehead.
Dathan waved his hand at his son.
When Loveta gets into class, Dathan and Arriel head to the car. Now Arriel sat in front, right next to Dathan.
Seeing the opportunity with Dathan, Arriel took advantage of the situation to talk to Dathan.
“Than, can we talk?” Arriel turned to look at Dathan. Look at the man who was once her husband.
“Speak.” Dathan stared at the street in front of him. Not looking at Arriel at all.
Arriel felt that talking in a car like this was uncomfortable, but she had no other choice. After all, he also had to discuss this immediately.
“Do you really have a lover?” Arriel made sure of that first with Dathan.
“Didn't I tell you. What do you think I lied about pretending to have a lover.” Dathan smiled sneered.
“I don't mean to doubt you have a lover.” Arriel tried to explain. “Because what I'm talking about will definitely be related to your relationship, so I made sure first.”
“Yes, I already have a lover, and will be married soon.” Dathan pointedly explained that.
“Congratulations if your plan has gone that far, but I have something to say, Than.” Arriel tries to stay strong, even though Dathan seems to respond.
Dathan is still listening mode while focusing on the streets.
“Than, I've been wrong all this time for thinking too much about my efforts. Until I don't have time with Lolo. I know there's a lot of time lost. So that's why I want to make up for it.” Arriel tries to explain his intention to talk to Dathan.
Dathan is still digesting what Arriel said. Somehow he was suspicious of Arriel's intentions. However, Dathan wanted to hear Arriel talk first, so as not to deduce the origin.
“So please give me a chance to get close to Lolo.” Arriel explained to her ex-husband.
Dathan is increasingly confused by every word Arriel speaks. What opportunity do you mean? Dathan doesn't want a big head to think Arriel is asking him to come back.
“Try to explain correctly and not cut into pieces. I'm so confused to understand.” Dathan really doesn't understand what Arriel's describing.
“So like this, Than. Since you are getting married, there will definitely be a new mother for Lolo, while all this time I have not been close to Lolo. So I want you to give us a chance to be close to our son first. I want there to be a place in Lolo's heart before it'll be next to your wife.” Arriel tried to explain it. There was actually a fear when Dathan was getting married. Arriel himself was not that close to his son, if his place was filled with others, there he would no longer be able to enter his child's heart.
Dathan finally understood what Arriel was explaining. He himself felt that Arriel had not been close to his son, and of course it made Dathan sometimes upset because Arriel did not understand many things about Loveta.
“I know, I should have done it a long time ago, but isn't it too late to fix? Please give me that chance before you get married.” Arriel looked at Dathan expectantly.
“Alright, but there are conditions.” Dathan is no pleasantry. He immediately said what he wanted to say.
Arriel was quite stunned when she heard that Dathan had given her the conditions. However, he was aware he was begging, so of course he was the one who had to follow the game.
“What?” ask Arriel to know.
“I want Loveta to know if we're divorced. I want us to both give understanding if we are no longer together.” Since yesterday he felt it was time for his son to know everything. Because this is the opening gate to his relationship with Neta. If Loveta already knows papa and his mother are separated, Neta can enter into their lives.
Arriel remained silent. Loveta has always known that her parents are still together. So it's only natural that it's time to tell that.
“Alright, after I'm close enough to Lolo, we explain carefully to Lolo.” Arriel agreed to those terms. What he expected was that his son would be close to him.
Regardless of his son knowing his status, the most important thing is that Arriel does not lose the attention of Lovata.
Dathan breathed a sigh of relief. He believes this is the opening path for him along with Neta. If it's like this just run everything slowly.
“Now what will you do to get close to Love?” Dathan wants to know what steps his ex-wife will take.
“This week I will finish my work. From next week I'll have Lolo stay with me for a week. If he's comfortable, I'll extend it.” Arriel is not sure her son can linger with her. He knew how close his son was to his father. So he's going to ask to go home to see his dad.
“Good. You can pick up love Saturday morning. I'll get everything including school clothes ready. So you can take Love to school.” Dathan gave the ex-wife room for it.
“Thank you, Than.” Arriel is relieved that Dathan has finally made room for himself along with his son.
