Father of My Son
Cry, but it can't wash everything
Lily simply stirred the rice that was on the plate without intending to eat it. He has no appetite at all, his mind is still withering. About Aric and Veronica.
If indeed they had been together, the extent to which the two were in a relationship. How long do they live love? Have their relationships reached that stage?
Lily clucked in annoyance, she slammed her spoon hard, until the metal thing fell to the floor. Lily got up from her seat, she walked towards the balcony to clear her mind.
Aric's past, Lily doesn't know anything about it. Let alone the past, her now-husband Lily did not know him very well.
"Come in" Lily said after hearing someone knock on the room door.
"Mrs, are you done eating?" ask Bi Asih.
Lily did ask for lunch in the room, with the excuse of not feeling well. Lily only answered Bi Asih's question with a deep sigh.
The middle-aged woman stepped towards the table to clear Lily's lunch. He was shocked to see that none of the food was touched by Lily. Even the spoon is on the floor.
"Is my cooking not to the taste of the Madam?"bi Asih asked, the woman ducked down to pick up the dropped spoon.
Lily shook her head slowly.
"No Bi, not like that. I just didn't want to eat" Lily said, walking and laying down on the couch.
"But the pity that's in Madam's stomach, she needs nutrition in order to grow well."
Lily looked down, she gently stroked her stomach which was still not so distended. Bi Asih was right, Lily could not make her future child starve, no matter the circumstances.
"Yes Bi, I'll eat later." The look on his face looks sad, Bi pasih can see it feel unbearable.
He knew something must have been bothering Lily's mind, especially the pregnant woman locked herself in the room after going to the back garden with Veronica earlier.
"Mrs sorry if I am presumptuous to say this, but if there is anything that disturbs the mind of the Madam. Better just ask, do not keep it yourself," said Bi Asih.
Lily turned her head, looking at the middle-aged woman who was busy arranging Lily's used plate on the tray. Lily had only met him twice, but she could feel that Bi Asih cared so much for him.
"Bi, can I talk to you for a minute?" lily asked while patting the sofa beside her.
"Bi Asih is sitting here, let's have a good conversation." The woman nodded, putting back the plate she was about to lift. She sat down next to Lily.
"Auntie is sitting down, yes" pinta Bi Asih, he felt uncomfortable sitting on top with his master like this.
"Udah Bi, just here," Lily said quickly. By having Bi Asih obey Lily's wishes.
"Bi Asih has been working here for a long time?" ask Lily.
"It's been a long time Madam, since I was a teenager," Bi Asih replied, he looked ahead, recalling his past.
"Since adolescence? Is it not marriage?" Bi Asih shook her head, a smile on her lips. A smile that is very difficult to interpret.
"I've devoted my whole life to this house, Madam. I never thought about getting married" she replied calmly, with no hesitation on her face.
Lily stared in wonder at the woman sitting next to her, so loyal that she served this family, a family that incidentally only strangers. Wh why? Is it because of the high salary? It feels impossible, money alone is not enough to keep someone loyal up to that stage.
"Mrs why are you silent? Is the conversation over?" bi Asih asked, a question that made Lily realize her true purpose.
"Sorry Bi, I'm so daydreaming in shock." Bi Asih just smiled at Lily's reply, her face so calm and shady.
"Bi Asih, did Auntie know about Aric and Veronica's relationship?"
Lily frowned in annoyance, neither did Lily get any information from Bi Asih.
"Darling, I'm sorry for not picking up the phone from you, I didn't do it on purpose. My phone I'm silent mode, I was in a meeting at the time." Aric grabbed Lily's hand. However, the woman immediately pulled back her hand.
His anger at the missed call, now that annoyance was changing with curiosity and a speck of jealousy, which began to gnaw at his heart.
"Madamus you better ask yourself this question to Young Master, I'm sorry." Bi Asih got up from his seat, he quickly lifted the tray then walked out of the room.
Lily could only let out a long sigh, she stared at the middle-aged woman's back unwillingly.
"Dear, say something. Don't be quiet like this." Aric broke back to grab Lily's hand, now he clasped it tightly.
Lily tried to let go, but Lily's energy was outdone. He was finally only able to let the man hold his hand while sitting down in front of him.
Aric looked at the wife's face, he couldn't see Lily getting mad at him like that.
"Are you angry, honey?"
Lily just shook her head, angry of course not. Upset to be more precise, upset that she doesn't know anything about her own husband. Lily felt like a useless wife.
"If you're not angry, why shut up? Say something, I can't guess what you're thinking if you're quiet like this."
Not a word came out of the mouth of the beautiful woman, I don't know she was so lazy. He did not even look at Aric who was battered in front of him.
Lily instead looked out the open window, seeing the green leaves waving in the wind. It really ignores Aric.
The man could only sigh deeply, slowly laying his head on Lily's lap.
"You know, honey, I'm so scared to shut up like this. I can't dive deeper into you. I know I'm wrong, but can you be compassionate and talk to me."
Lily actually doesn't have the heart to be like this to Aric either. However, his heart still felt annoyed.
"Did you also often spoil like this with him?" lily asked with a cold face.
Aric immediately raised his head, looking at Lily who was also looking at him sharply.
"He who?" asked Aric confusedly.
"He, your ex-lover..Who else," Lily said with a bitchy face. He could no longer hide his anger.
"former? who do you mean, right?"
"Veronic! who else is it? How many exes are you, heh? until you ask me who I mean!"
Lily looked at the wife's reluctant face looking at her. The woman folded her hands while throwing her face the other way.
"Are you jealous?" asked Aric with a happy face.
"No!"
"Yes, you're jealous darling." Aric immediately hugged Lily's body tightly.
"I said no! zealin!" peekik Lily thrashed.
Unlike Lily who was angry, Aric actually smiled with a happy face.
