Duren Mateng's
Chapters 97. The Failed Effort

Hours of rest, while at school, Febby ventured to meet Bima. He glanced at his mother who had been watching his movements. Mila even waited for Febby just to see her son whether to obey her words or not.

Bima was playing alone. The boy looked up at the sudden arrival of Febby.

"Can I join you?" ask Febby who is still showing a flat face.

Bima nodded her head, Febby dropped her butt right on the chair next to Bima. Occasionally Febby set his eyes on Mila who had been watching them.

"Can you move from there?" suddenly asked Febby. Bima immediately frowned hearing the words of the girl in front of him.

"Why indeed?" ask Bima who was curious.

"I just want you and your family to go far away. My mom .. she likes your dad. My mother was obsessed with your father and even forgot about my father" Febby said.

Bima scratched his head. He did not fully understand what Febby said. However, the boy tried to nod his head, confirming Febby's words.

Unintentionally, Bima saw Febby's slightly flushed wrist. "That's ... your hand why?" bima asked while looking at Febby's hand.

Febby spontaneously hid his wrist. "It's okay" said the girl, occasionally staring at her mother.

Bima followed Febby's line of sight. "Did your mother beat you up a lot? I overheard your cries last night" Bima said.

Febby is confused as to whether he should complain and ask Bima for help, or if he just shut up and let his mother do it.

"It's okay, just say it. I won't tell your mother" Bima said.

Febby nodded his head at first, but seeing his mother approaching, Febby quickly shook his head. He was afraid, his mother would come back angry if Bima found out about it.

However, Febby also does not want to be constantly bait Mila when he wants to vent all his frustration. Febby again silenced as Mila approached the two.

"What are you talking about? It seems very exciting," said Mila develop her best smile. Mila rubbed the top of Febby's head, then rubbed the top of Bima's head.

Bima set her eyes on Febby who seemed to be in fear. Bima also began to play and develop his smile. "It's okay, Auntie. Last Febby wanted to invite Bima to play," said Bima.

"Oh, so ... You should have gotten along with each other. Moreover, we are neighbors" said Mila.

Shortly thereafter, Nana approached her two students. The break time is over. "Kids, let's go to class" Nana asks Bima and Febby.

"Okay, Master." Bima immediately moved from his seat, as well as Febby who immediately followed Bima.

While Mila, the woman noticed the two who were starting to enter the classroom. He developed his sneaky smile, because this time Febby really obeyed his words, which was approaching Bima.

"Good, Son. You better keep sticking with Bima like that. Seeing you guys close, makes it easy for me to approach both of Bima's parents. It might be hard to tease Alvaro, but I'll use Rania as my tool to make it easier to get the guy."

"Alvaro, you see! Now you can reject me, but later on, I will make sure you are crazy about me" Mila said with a sly smile.

.....

Elsewhere, Alvira is busy carrying her child. Abian can see his mother's face and even laughs when Alvira shows her cute face to the child.

A moment later, Arumi arrived. He entered Alvira's room with a bottle of milk in his hand.

"Si Alvaro plans to move," chirps Arumi dropped her ass on the side of the bed. He gave the bottle to Alvira.

"Moved? Wh why? Are you no longer in the apartment?" alvira asked to put the bottle into her son's mouth.

"Eitherway. After all, from the beginning, my mother did not agree that she lived in an apartment, just your twin brother who was always stubborn" grumbled Arumi.

Alvira heard it could only giggle. His mother was always at odds with Alvaro. However, Alvira this time sided with her mother who also disagreed if Alvaro used to live in the apartment.

"Si Bima rarely plays here. Vira so miss the same Bima babbling," said Alvira.

"Do we tell Bima to stay here? Anyway just let Alvaro be alone with Rania. Who knows after this we've got some good news, right?" said Arumi raise her eyebrows.

"Yes, Ma. Try asking Alvaro not to pick up Bima. Tell Mr. Darman to pick up Bima to his school" said Alvira.

"A good idea! Wait, mama called Varo first."

Arumi grabs the phone she put on the nightstand. He also sought his son's contact and immediately contacted his only son.

"Yes, Ma. What's up?" ask Alvaro from across the phone.

"Varo, Bima let Mr. Darman pick you up ... Mama misses Bima. After all, you rarely play here," said Arumi.

"Yes, then I won't pick her up. Maybe after coming home from the office I will pick up Bima there," said Alvaro.

"All right then. Ah yes, did your wife show any signs of pregnancy?" ask Arumi.

"Yet, Ma. Do'a will be quick. For that question .. I hope you didn't ask my wife directly. I'm afraid he will be sad and disappointed because until now he has not shown any signs" said Alvaro.

"You're calm, you're also a woman, so you understand what Rania feels later if you ask her directly" Arumi said.

"Then, continue your work. Mama hang up the phone ...."

"Mmmm ...."

"Hows it? Did Varo allow it?" ask Alvira.

"Yes. But mama is very lazy to go down to call Mr. Darman," said Arumi.

"Tomorrow renovated again, Ma. Love the elevator so as not to be too tired to go up and down the stairs," said Alvira while chuckling.

"You're right too. Yeah, you're the one who went downstairs. Tell Mr. Darman to pick up Bima," said Arumi.

"Alvira is also lazy to move, Ma." The woman immediately chuckled. Makes Arumi shake her head.

"Again there is also the number of Mr. Darman, why not just call Mr. Darman so as not to get too tired up and down the stairs. It also saves energy and time, too" explained Alvira.

"Ah yes! You're right! Why did not mama think of it earlier," said Arumi patted her forehead.

The woman took the phone back on the nightstand, looked for Mr. Darman's contact and then contacted him.

"Sir, please pick up Bima at school huh."

" ...."

"Yes, now. Soon Bima came home," said Arumi glanced at the circular watch on her left wrist.

Arumi also cut off her phone. He put his phone back on, then approached his grandson, kissing Abian's puffed cheek.

"Huge fast huh, dear. Later grandma bought a lot of toys like Brother. So that Abian can play as much as possible with Abang Bima," said Arumi.

.....

The time to go home has arrived. Bima is waiting for her invitation at the school park. His eyes caught Febby and his mother walked towards him.

"Bima if you want to go home with Aunt and Febby, we are neighbors anyway, so there is no need to hesitate," asked Mila.

Bima looked at Febby who seemed to give the code to her. The girl shook her head slowly, a sign that Bima should reject the invitation from Mila.

"It's okay, Auntie. Bima wait for papa to pick him up," Bima refused while shaking her head.

"Loh, why? Besides, come with Auntie and your parents won't be angry. Later Aunt will tell your mother that Bima is with Aunt. Once played with Febby," persuaded Mila.

"No need, Auntie. Soon papa will pick up," said Bima.

"Come on! Aunty will call your parents and ask them for permission. You don't have to be ashamed." Mila unceasingly persuaded Bima.

"No, Aunt. Thank you." Thank you." Bima still gave a rejection of Mila's invitation. Of course it was Febby who banned it.

"Come, Honey. You needn't be ashamed. We are neighbors." Anyway." Again and again Mila told Bima that they were neighbors. Of course Febby was a little careless to see the behavior of his mother who forced other people's children to come with him.

However, the little girl could not do much. If he pulls his mother and says that he is ashamed, then after coming home from school later, he should be able to take a punch or pinch from the woman.

Mila still persuaded Bima. This time he forced a little on the boy. From a distance, Nana saw this. Quickly, he approached them.

"What's this?" ask Nana.

"Ah, nothing, Miss Nana. I just want to invite Bima to come home together" said Mila.

Nana crouched down, aligning her height with the boy. "Want to go home with Febby's mom?" asked Nana gently.

Bima immediately answered Nana's question with a headband.

"Bima should not be ashamed, Bima and I are neighbors so it is natural that I offer him to come home together" said Mila who tried to defend herself.

Nana moved from her position, smilingly staring at Mila. "Bima refused to come, ma'am. It's okay, Mom and Febby go home first. If in school, Bima becomes my responsibility. Soon her father will also pick her up" explained Nana.

Shortly after, Bima saw the car that was usually driven by her grandmother. Mr. Darman also got off the vehicle to pick up Bima.

"Excuse me, Mum. I'm the man of Bima's grandmother to pick up Bima," said Mr. Darman to Nana.

"He's an uncle who works with grandma, Master." Bima chimed in, seeing the doubt on Nana's expression.

"Oh, yes, I have. Then please!" nana.

Bima shakes Nana's hand. He hesitated a little, but ventured to greet Mila.

"Bima go home first yes, Master." Bima waved her hand.

"Yes, son." Nana replied to Bima's hand.

While Mila, he felt arrogant because his efforts failed to approach his neighbor's child.

"Damn!" it's in the heart.
