Mr. Kino immediately the following girder displayed a panicked face without him being conscious. " I-I mean, Candy is Fox's daughter. Sorry I'm Mint, " while breathing out a rough long breath. " I used to worry about Candy too much. Because he is my only grandson. Our grandkids."
Hearing that Mrs Mint was not even being nice. She went away and did not understand what her husband said.
" Mrt ... Mint," exclaimed Mr. Kino to his wife but it was certain that Mint was quite disappointed with what Mr. Kino had just done.
Usually, he will curse anyone who causes Candy to hurt or anything that deals with Candy. Fox's own son is even to the point of being all-out exposed to his own father's wrath when Candy chases him and Candy crashes. And now, Mint doesn't expect her husband to even hit her on the cheek because Candy drowned at the bottom of the pool.
And after seeing Mint's attitude, his wife who went from before him, Mr. Kino immediately went up to the second floor to see his daughter who was still traumatized.
" How's Tamarin? Is Candy any better?" Mr. Kino who saw his sweet daughter was still crying hugging her mother because she was still afraid of the incident that had just happened to her.
" As her Candy was still frightened," Tamarin replied which calmed her daughter down.
Mr. Kino who stroked his daughter's hair. Peeping the hair on the back of his daughter.
She immediately stepped out of Candy's room and headed for her room. It seems that Mint is pretending to sleep in her bed without caring anymore for her husband who is entering the room and may notice her.
Don't know why? The atmosphere of a big house is not as warm as it used to be. After Fox's departure, the big house looked silent especially with the events this afternoon related to the sinking of Candy in the pool.
Of course, it adds silence between residents of the house. Especially Mrs Mint and Mr. Kino.
.
.
Next morning.
Mistress Mint seemed to hurry after being ready by putting on her makeup and carrying her briefcase. She even avoided face-to-face and engaging in conversations with her husband.
" Mint, I'm sorry Mint" said Mr. Kino, grabbing his wife Mint's arm. But unfortunately Mrs Mint even threw her husband's sturdy arm. And she continued her steps to get out of her room and towards Candy's room.
Kino, her husband even followed Mint earlier. Until Mint is now in Candy's room that already has Tamarin near Candy.
" Dear Candy, forgive Oma yes," said Mistress Mint who stroked the top of her hair as soft as the silk of Candy.
" Yes Oma, Candy is just scared," replies Candy who hugs her Omanya.
Powerless, Mint's eyeballs even to the point of glazed after hugging Candy who due to her negligence drowned in the pool.
" Oma promise, Oma will keep you well if we play again," while releasing her arms and the two look at each other.
" Yes Oma," replied Candy who seemed to have calmed down a lot.
" Oma work first, baby." Mistress Mint finally got up from the edge of the bed and immediately left the three of them. Without further ado to Tamarin even he just left. And honestly it makes Tamarin feel surprised what happened to her mother-in-law?
Once it can be ascertained if Mrs Mint has gone to the office and left the big house. Tamarin asked her lover. " What's wrong with Mrs Mint?"
Makes Mr. Kino less comfortable with the woman's question. He was still reluctant to answer because it was certain that Tamarin would nag him.
" What's wrong with Mrs Mint?" reiterate it with questions that have not been changed in terms of its power.
Making Mr. Kino finally let out a long and rough breath while walking out of Candy's room and down the stairs together to go to the garage.
" I slapped him." Mr. Kino's short answer made Tamarin gap until he stopped.
" What? Slapped him? What the hell are you doing? Should he be different?"
" Huft's." Long, rough breaths came back out of Mr. Kino's nostrils. " Haven't I done that in a long time? No matter to anyone. Fox is even worse because she already got Candy hit by a car. And I don't want anyone to hurt my little daughter. You know, don't you? If I loved my daughter so much. I really love Candy, Tamarin." The face of Mr. Kino who had struggled even word by word until the sentence he said was full of emphasis.
Making Tamarin speechless, though he painstakingly gulped his saliva. Resuming his steps without chiming in on what Mr. Kino said. There is a longer, may be late to the office.
.
.
" Hello" said Mrs Mint, who is now in front of Davos' office lobby. He was in contact with Jelly after coming back to Davos' office and asked the receptionist for Jelly's phone number.
Mint lamented her stupidity, why not ask the receptionist for a mobile number from the beginning.
" Okay, thank you Jelly." Mint ended the conversation with Jelly.
The finished Mint makes an appointment with Jelly after she returns from her work out of town.
Mrs Mint who knew it, she immediately said a word of thanks to her trusted people who had responded and immediately responded with her troubled situation.
.
.
Unlike Milk and Ita who they have just met in Bandung with Jelly and Davos.
" So you guys got fired?" ask Jelly who was so surprised.
" yes. Tamarin, Fox's wife who replaced Fox's current position in office. Similarly, his father. He seems to be the one who will be watching Tamarin directly in the office" Ita added.
Glug
Jelly swallowed his saliva with great difficulty.
I can't, I'm telling Ita.
Although I know, if it seems like something is not right between Fox's father and his wife.
However, Ita must not know.
inner Jelly who can already feel, if it looks like Tamarin, does not want people close to Fox in the office.
He must have fired Milk and Ita.
Tamarin knows Milk and Ita are Fox's best friends.
Jelly who looked down while thinking.
" Darling, let Milk and Ita join our company" Jelly pinta told Davos, who was sitting next to her.
" Yes Darling. Later that company will also be yours, if we're married. And aren't we getting married soon?" Davos grabbed Jelly's five right fingers and dipped them.
Making Milk sit in front of Davos despite being blocked by the table cursed two words.
Fucking crocodiles.
Milk was so dislikeful that he turned his face away, when Davos showed him as if he was an acutely bucolic man to his ex-girlfriend, Jelly.
.
.
Night in the big house.
Mrs Mint is still hearing if Candy is still being read to by her husband. Even still heard the laughter of his granddaughter to make her step stop not far from the door of Candy's room.
" Oma," said the sweet boy half-screaming turning to Mistress Mint who was sculpting not far from the door of Candy's room.
" Dear Candy, Candy hasn't slept?" his reply.
" It's opa reading Candy's story."
Mint who then goes in and sits on the edge of Candy's bed. Either still feeling guilty or her body trying to tell her but she still does not realize also if Candy is not her grandson. Mint's right fingers touched and then pinched Candy's little chubby cheeks with the sweet boy never locking his mouth because he was always smiling. " Good night Candy" she said, ending Mint's night before she was about to get up to her room.
" Good night Oma," replied the sweet boy who even widened his smile.
As Mint exits Candy's room, Tamarin passed by and Mint did not even greet him even though Tamarin tried to say just a small question to Mint to make Tamarin bumbling by herself through the back of her mother-in-law who moved away from Candy's room.
Not wanting Mint, his wife is suspicious. Mr. Kino catches up with Mint to her room and is still trying to get an apology from the woman he's almost thirty years of living with.
Kino who did not usually hug his cold wife. He finally hugged Mint, his wife from behind, to melt Mint's frozen heart from her slap yesterday.
Mint is aware that her husband Kino is trying to cover everything from her. But not to him, who will continue to find out. What has Kino been hiding from her?
Mint flipped her body, both of them not even eroded the distance. Mr. Kino's lips even want to kiss Mint's lips. But unfortunately, Mint accidentally fingered her husband's right ring finger.
" Where's your ring? Our wedding ring?" asked Mrs Mint who made Mr. Kino's face immediately panicked.
