Duren Mateng's
Chapters 114. Substitute Father

When opening the lunch box brought by Rania, Alvaro's eyes look sparkling to see the food on the table.

"Well .. this must be so good!" bima said that he first praised the food even though he had not tasted it at all.

"Of course, who cooks mama," added Alvaro who increasingly makes both cheeks Rania meet. Two great men are always smart to make the mood of Rania getting better.

"Then eat! You can't praise just because you see it without tasting the taste," said Rania.

Alvaro began to take chopsticks that had been provided by Rania. He also chose to taste the sushi made by his beloved wife, whose appearance was very bright, like the sun in the morning.

"Emmm .. as I thought. It's really delicious" said Alvaro brandishing his thumb.

Now Bima also took sushi made by her mother. The curly-haired boy chewed on the food while nodding his head.

"Feeling my mom is the best." Bima praised Rania.

Hearing the various compliments spoken by the two, making Rania was happy and more excited to prepare food for the child and her husband.

They enjoyed the meal accompanied by a light story to sweeten the atmosphere of the afternoon, eating food that looked like a very harmonious family.

"Late this week, how about we go visit your parents' house. After we got married, we never visited her. Anyway, I wanted to collect your promise yesterday, to take me to the tea garden" said Alvaro, who had just finished his meal.

"To the tea garden? Whoa ... Bima wants to come ... Bima wants to come!" the boy said with great enthusiasm.

"Last this week? What about your work? So what about Bima?" ask Rania.

"We leave early in the morning, continue the afternoon home . If you want to stay, then just fit Bima school vacation," proposed Alvaro.

"Do you agree?" ask the man to make sure.

Rania seemed to be thinking before she triggered her answer. "I'm up to Mas Varo. What I fear later, Mas will be tired of driving considering our journey is not close" said Rania.

"That problem is not to be thought about. I'll take Mr. Darman later. So, we can drive the car alternately" said Alvaro.

"All right then, Mom. This weekend we go there," said Rania.

Bima immediately cheered happily because he felt very happy to be invited to walk by his parents. And Bima was looking forward to that day.

Elsewhere, Alvira takes her baby out of the room. He held Abian who was staring at the things around him.

"Happy, son, did you take Bian out?" alvira asked her son, as if he could speak.

Alvira's ears caught a footstep coming towards the back. He turned his head and was quite astonished to see who had come to him.

"Juna, ..." the woman's lips muttered, looking at the man with a firm jaw while carrying the bouquet of flowers in her hand.

The man smiled to see the idol who was in the middle along with his baby.

"Hi" said Arjuna, commenting on the smile.

"Why are you here?" alvira asked who was quite surprised by Juna's sudden arrival. Usually the man only sent a bouquet of flowers and a letter to Alvira.

"Because you miss you," Arjuna said briefly, of course it makes Alvira immediately turn her face in shame. He did not want Arjuna to know that his cheeks were meeting.

Arjuna came back towards him. He handed the bouquet to Alvira. The woman could only stare at him, because she could not take the flowers given by Arjuna, her position was currently holding the baby.

"Can I hold Abian?" asked Arjuna suddenly.

Alvira chimed in Arjuna's words with a soft nod. It was impossible for him to forbid Arjuna from carrying his son.

"I'll put it here first" said Juna, putting the bouquet in his hand on the table. The man took Abian out of Alvira's hand.

"Wah ... the little whiz is really handsome," said the man while kissing the cheek of the Abian puffer that has a distinctive aroma of baby powder and also telon oil.

"Do I look like I fit?" ask Arjuna.

Alvira was stunned, she did not understand the word 'fit' in terms of what? Whether the point is suitable to carry Abian, or something else.

"What match?" ask Alvira.

Deggq ...

Alvira could not hide her surprise. His face was flushed again by Arjuna's words. I don't know since when Alvira often met with Arjuna's sentence. In the past, even when the man teased her, Alvira still acted ordinary. And this time, it feels a little different.

Alvira looked at Arjuna closely. Occasionally the man showed his funny face to Abian making Alvira a little bit full. Abian also laughed, as if he was interacting with the figure of the father. When Abian was born, his son was never carried by his biological father.

How to carry Abian, after all Andre's position is currently in prison, and Alvira also felt unwilling to visit her ex-husband. Memories of painful things will of course be imagined again, where Andre who covers himself with his own close friends.

Shortly after, Arumi approached the two. He warmly welcomed Arjuna's arrival.

"Eh, there's Nak Juna. Come on come on in, son." Arumi welcomes Arjuna and invites the man to enter.

"It's okay, Auntie. I'm here, it looks like Abian is having fun being outside" Arjuna said.

"Well, I understand Abian very well. Yes already, then be Abian's replacement father only," said Arumi as she gave a smile.

Alvira immediately looked at her mother for saying so. However, Arumi ignores her daughter, still tempting Abian to get closer to Alvira.

"Si Abian also looks happy in the carrying by Arjuna. Maybe he asked for a new father figure." again and again Arumi seduced the two, making Alvira want to drown herself because of the shame caused by the actions of her mother.

"Ma, ..." Alvira tries to give the code to her mother, but the elderly woman chooses to ignore her daughter.

"Bi!!" Arumi cried when he saw the waiter who was tidying up the bonsai leaves in front of his house.

The waiter put down the scissors in his hand. Run towards Arumi. "What's up, Madam?" ask her with a slightly stingy breath.

"Please make me a drink for my son-in-law!" order Arumi.

Alvira and Arjuna threw their eyes at each other. Arjuna smiled hearing Arumi say so, as if he had gotten the green light from Arumi.

While Alvira, he bowed in shame. His mother always did. And now, Alvira can feel how when Alvaro was betrothed to many women yesterday, must be shy to the crown.

"Okay, Madam." The servant chimed in on Arumi's words. He rushed to the kitchen and prepared a drink for Arjuna.

"How are your mom and dad?" ask Arumi.

"Good, Aunt. Only sometimes a little bit of clashing about small things," said Arjuna who was too honest to talk about the problems of his parents.

"If that one .. indeed from the first they often argue. No wonder, after all, your father married his own friend," Arumi said while chuckling.

"Yes, Aunt." Arjuna nodded, confirming Arumi's speech.

"Send aunty's regards to both. Aunty used to stop by your mom's restaurant a lot. But now that Aunty is old, Auntie rarely comes out" said Arumi.

"It's okay, Auntie. Mom is like that too. The one who manages the resto is my youngest sister" Arjuna said.

Shortly after, the waiter came back while carrying a tray containing drinking water and snacks for Arjuna. Put the drinks and snacks on the table.

"Please enjoy, sir." The waiter smiled kindly.

"Yes, Bi. Thank you" said Arjuna.

Alvira approaches Arjuna, asking Abian to give him, so that the man can enjoy the food and drinks served.

But, beyond Alvira's expectations. Abian cries as Alvira is taken from Arjuna's arms.

"Why are you crying, son?" ask Alvira wonder.

"Maybe he doesn't want to get away from Arjuna" Arumi said.

"It's okay, here just give it to me," said Arjuna who asked Abian again.

Alvira gives Abian back to Arjuna. And sure enough, his little hero no longer cried when he was with Arjuna.

"No, the crying stopped" said Arumi.

"Often cry, my granddaughter. So that later your mama find a substitute father figure for you later," continued Arumi who made Alvira and Arjuna was stunned.
