... Dinner Together...
Memories that have passed will not be repeated. Ravindra will always keep every good memory while on vacation with Irene and Long An while in New Caledonia the other day. Keep it in your heart so you can always warm your heart. Rava wants to be like Irene whose heart is always warm thanks to her memories with her late father. Ravindra will do the same, wanting her heart to warm with the wonderful memories she has made with her little family. Ravindra recalls being with Irene in New Caledonia.
“Can I ask you something?” ask Ravindra.
“Ask.” replied Irene.
“Do you accept my heart, because I am his father Long An?”
Irene smiled and shook her head slowly.
“I accept your heart not because you are her father or the events of 10 years ago. But, because ...” replied Irene while pointing at Ravindra's chest.
“Because of your heart and your personality. I want to warm the heart of a good man who is frozen. Long An, also wanted the same thing. Can melt the ice in your heart.” continued Irene accompanied by a warm smile.
Ravindra was moved by Irene's words. Things he never got for 32 years. Someone who wants to warm his heart. Want to accept him completely not because Rava has something. Rava was very happy, he did not wrongly entrust his heart to be guarded by Irene and Little Long An.
Now, Ravindra is confident that he will go even further with his small family. He smiled alone. While waiting for his little family to change clothes in a Boutique.
Flashbacks
“Today, come with me.” Rava said to Irene and Long An.
“Papa porcupine hair, where are we going?” asked Long An who could already call Ravindra with Papa's call.
“Meet your grandfather.” replied Rava.
Hearing Ravindra's reply, Irene was immediately shocked.
“A.. What do you mean? Grandpa?” ask Irene.
“Yes, I mean meet my father. No need to hide all this. Let's live together in one family.” replied Ravindra sincerely.
Irene and Long An were immediately stifled at Ravindra's reply who wanted to live with them.
“Papa..” says Long An with teary eyes. The thing that used to be for Little Long An only exists in dreams. Now it's going to turn into reality.
Irene also looked at Ravindra with teary eyes.
“Do not thank. I'm the one who should thank you. You are already present in my life. Makes my freezing go away. Replaced with a warm feeling that brings happiness.” said Ravindra with a very sincere smile.
“Papa hair porcupine!” call Long An while hugging Ravindra tightly.
“I want to practice sparring every day with papa. Want to play as much as possible with papa porcupine hair.” said Long An full of cheerfulness.
Ravindra laughs happily, “let's do it all together.”
Irene who had been shedding tears immediately wiped back. Then gave a warm smile full of love for Ravindra.
End Flashback
Ravindra is ready to wear formal clothing. Waiting for Long An and Irene to get ready. After waiting for a while. Long An came out first. His head peeked out from behind the curtain of the dressing room.
“Papa, how do I look?” asked An with a radiant face.
Long An came out and showed his appearance. He was wearing a tuxedo outfit with a tiny ribbon around his shirt. His top is a long-sleeved suit. But his pants are short. Looks very cute and adorable. Moreover, the hair is very similar to Ravindra. It's like An is a photocopyan from Ravindra. Rava who saw her son look like him instantly smiled.
“Papa's son is handsome.” praise Ravindra.
Long An immediately smiled widely. Until not long ago. Another waiter opened the curtain where Irene had finished. When the curtains are opened. Irene stood so gracefully. Even though it's not so high. However, highheels that are high enough to support his height. Irene was wearing a long black dress with a clearly visible part of her back. Featuring beautiful body curves that are smooth white. The makeup is not too thick because Irene is naturally beautiful. Inherited the beauty of her mother. Irene looked very beautiful and elegant while wearing the dress chosen by Ravindra.
Looking at Irene's very different appearance. Making Ravindra speechless with a reddened face. He stared at Irene without blinking. Little Long An also followed the gawking. I didn't think her mother was this beautiful. If you dress up a little fancy. Irene who Ravindra looked at like that, felt ashamed. His face was also flushed. Long An glanced at Rava who was still unblinking looking at Irene's appearance.
“Papa!! papa nosebleed huh? because see the beauty of mama?!” peekik Long An's.
Ravindra was shocked and immediately rubbed her nose. But there's nothing.
“But Long An bohooong hihi.” Goda Long An.
“Basic of small children. Come here.” said Ravindra while tickling Long An. An laughed and was very happy. Irene also laughed watching the small happiness of their family.
Exactly 7pm. Ravindra and her small family are already in a specially ordered and private restaurant. Mr. Marvin and Liam seem to have been waiting. Ravindra didn't just invite her father. But also Liam. Liam is still his brother.
“You've arrived?” mister Marvin asked when he saw Ravindra coming into the dining room.
“Ya.” Reply Rava short.
“My brother, this is not like your usual style. We never had family dinner. Why is it suddenly like this?” ask Liam while smiling.
“What do you mean?” ask Mr. Marvin from his seat.
“True, what do you mean?” Liam asked. He was curious.
“Come in.” says Ravindra.
Not long after, Irene who was holding Long An's hand entered the room. Walk gracefully and stand right beside Ravindra. Long An stood in the middle of the two.
Mister Marvin and Liam were surprised by the sudden arrival of Irene and Long An like this.
“What does this all mean?” ask Mr. Marvin.
“True, why are these boys and girls here?” asked Liam sarcastically.
“Do not call this boy or girl. Call it right, because she's my woman now.” Ravindra replied with a sharp look at Liam.
Liam immediately scolded.
“Your woman?! Since when?” ask Liam cynically.
“I'm sorry I was suddenly like this. 10 years ago, I had done something to a girl. To make him suffer for containing my flesh blood. Now, they're here with me. I don't just want to be responsible. But more primary. These two people have changed the course of my life. Warming my frozen heart. Making me feel the warmth of a family. I want them to be part of this family. Named Damariswara.” replied Ravindra firmly.
Liam heard this. Feeling annoyed, he did not expect Rava to take such a quick step. If until his father accepts the whereabouts of Irene and Log An. It would endanger his position. Liam stared dislikefully and immediately kicked down the table.
Bruaks!
“Are you not wrong?! That woman, are you sure she's a good woman?” liam asked while pointing at Irene. Long An immediately stood by in front of his mother. Staring at Liam with a dislike look.
Ravindra immediately stared intently at Liam.
“If again, you say bad things about my woman or point with such a low gaze. I swear I'll break your finger. Shut your mouth forever.” said Ravindra sharply.
“You!!!” liam shouted furiously.
“Stop!” said Mr. Marvin who had sat down and observed.
On the other hand, Irene felt guilty. Makes the situation even more complicated in this family.
“Dad, what not to see. Your favorite child. Dear Ravindra Damariswara did as he pleased to his own brother.” said Liam in a tone full of annoyance.
“Be quiet Liam. It's really very sudden. I can't think of anything.” said Mr. Marvin. Liam was seen snorting in annoyance and rushed out of the place with a dislike look.
When Liam was gone. Mr. Marvin sighed deeply.
“This is really very sudden. Just cancel dinner for now. You explain to dad how detailed the story.” said Mr. Marvin, then stood up.
Not long after, Mr. Reno assistant Mr. Marvin entered and accompanied his master out of the room.
“I'm sorry for this incident.” said Irene as she bowed in feeling bad about this mess.
“Not your fault. Just the time is not right.” said Mr. Marvin without looking at Irene. Then hurried off with Mr. Reno.
Irene looked sad. And so is Long An.
“Did grandpa not accept me and mama?” ask An to Ravindra.
Rava stroked Long An's head slowly.
“Not so, your grandfather just needs time. So, don't take a headache. We're having dinner now. Don't be sad, the most important thing now. Papa has an adorable son and a strange woman who once kicked me hard.” comfort Ravindra.
Long An immediately smiled widely.
“An understand, I'll help papa persuade grandpa.”
Ravindra smiled and stroked Long An's head. Then looked at Irene who looked sad.
“A..”
“Stop, don't apologize. It's not your fault.” said Ravindra who seemed to know what Irene was going to say.
“We should eat together now. I never felt this hungry.” said Rava while sitting in a chair.
Long An looked at his grieving mother. Then hold her mother's hand tightly.
“Mama, this is Long An's dream since long ago. The three of us can be together like this. Please do not miss this happiness. Let's fight together.” Long An said with a big smile. Exudes warmth.
Making Irene angry with her son's attitude. Although An is still a child. But he can be mature. Irene didn't want to ruin Long An's happiness. A second later he smiled and sat down near Ravindra. An smiled happily. So too with Ravindra. This time the Damariswara little family will fight together. But for that it won't be easy. There are still Rosalind and Liam who will scuttle the steps of this little family.
