Genius Children: Between Hate and Miss
Like Father Like Son's

"Ehm .. fragrant." Hazel Arsenio's eyes sparkled when she saw some fried chicken neatly arranged on the plate.

Thigh fried chicken is Arsenio's favorite food. The little boy's appetite doubled when there were good dishes available on the dining table.

The little boy's hand moved slowly as if someone was pushing him to pick up a piece of fried thigh in front of him. Only about a inch away Arsenio can already eat the delicious food. However, ....

"Arsenio!" yell at someone with a firm voice. Her beautiful eyes stared intently at the figure of the little boy in front of her.

Arsenio stopped her action. "Yes, get caught by Mama." A naughty grin was painted on the corner of the boy's lips. Then, he turned the body and now his position is facing Tania. "I don't think Mama exists" he continued, showing a row of white and neat teeth.

Tania shook her head looking at the frown of the beloved prince. At a time like this, he again remembered the sweet memories when he and Xander were still a couple.

That night, for the first time Tania prepared their dinner after the penghulu and the witnesses and some invited guests were present calling for the word 'sah' which indicates that from that day on Xander and Tania officially became a couple.

Tania seemed so painstakingly preparing dinner dishes for her beloved husband. "May Xander like all these foods," he murmured while sipping on the delicious aroma that wafted in the air. Then he put the plate on the table. He glanced towards the wall clock on the television sideboard. The time is five o'clock in the afternoon and means Xander is coming home from work soon.

"I'd better take a shower now before Xander gets home."

All dishes Tania cover using a food hood to ensure the food remains hygienic and not infested with flies or dust. After that, he stepped into the bathroom.

When Tania was busy cleaning herself and decorating her face to look more beautiful than usual, at the same time, Xander arrived home. The man went straight into the house because he had a spare key.

"Tania, I'm home!" exclaim Xander calling the name of his beloved wife. However, the call was not heard by Tania at all because the woman was turning on the music with a volume quite loud.

White smoke billowed into the air, guiding Xander towards the dining table. Behind the hood serving blue there are some cooked food and one of them is fried chicken part of his favorite thigh.

Walking around like a thief. Occasionally looking back, making sure no Tania was standing in the doorway of the room.

"Wuah .. is delicious. I'm trying to take one ah, Tania won't know." Then, Xander was about to grab the fried chicken thigh. But unfortunately, the action was first discovered by Tania.

Given the incident, there is a sense of longing in Tania. She misses the beautiful moments with her ex-husband. However, when remembering how Miranda hated herself, she became a doubt will their love story end happily?

"You, yeah. Mama just stayed for a while to the room, you are ready to take the fried chicken. Hu ... you smart kid!" When he said the last sentence, the soft hand rubbed the top of Arsenio's head. Tania does not want to scold her beloved child just because of trivial problems. If the child makes a mistake, enough to be reprimanded without being scolded because if scolded it could be the child will be a dissident.

Without feeling sinful Arsenio replied, "Once the fried chicken looks delicious, Ma, I want to taste it."

Tania slightly bent her body so that her height was equivalent to Arsenio's. "Yes, Mama knows. But didn't we agree to eat the chicken with Om Xander? So, before Om Xander comes, it means you or Mama can not dong eat the chicken first. Wanna?"

There was a look of disappointment there. His face that story turned grim. "Well, I won't eat that chicken before Om Xander comes."

"Smart kid. Yes already, you better take a shower first with Surti. So, when Om Xander comes, we can eat right away."

"I don't think you're coming." Tania walked side by side next to Xander.

"If I hadn't come, would you be sad?" Xander raises both eyebrows, trying to tease Tania who that night looked so beautiful in a dress tosca color small flowers motif.

Tania turned away a face that suddenly felt hot. It seemed like the God Cupid had again thrust his arrow into Tania's heart.

"It's not me who's sad, but Arsen. He asked when you would come. He was already impatient to enjoy his favorite fried chicken," elak Tania. Prestigious dong if Tania said that in fact he was sad because he could not eat dinner with Xander and Arsenio.

Xander chuckled softly. "Ooh so. I thought you were sad too, but it wasn't." The man swept through the room, looking for Arsenio's whereabouts. "Where's the art? How come it's not here?"

"Arsen ada"

"I'm here!" arsenio exclaimed before Tania finished her sentence.

Xander commented smilingly at how handsome Arsenio was. The combination of Asian and American faces with beautiful, clear hazel eyes made the boy look like a living doll.

"You just finished your bath, boy?" xander asked as he gathered in front of Arsenio.

"Udah!" arsenio replied briefly.

"Said Mama, you kept asking when Om came. Sorry yes, because of Om, you cannot eat fried chicken. Instead, you can take the chicken ration Om. How's it?"

The face that was originally moping turned radiant. The black fog that adorned Arsenio's face was replaced with a sweet smile on her lips.

"really? Not lying to you?" arsen asked round his hazel eyes, looking happy.

Xander shook his head. "Om not lying. You're gonna have to ask Mama, okay?"

Arsenio nodded quickly. "Yes, two chicken thighs! I want to eat a lot of chicken! Hurrah!" arsenio clapped her hands happily. The little boy jumped up in joy.

"Now, let's have dinner! You must be really hungry, right?"

"Yes, Ma. I'm so hungry!" sahut Arsenio. "Om, come! We're having dinner together."

Unexpectedly, Arsenio flanked Xander's burly hands and demanded the man to the dining table. Xander and Tania were quite surprised to see the actions of their son. However, Xander tried to be ordinary when actually the subtle pounding he felt in the chest. While Tania just looked at how close the two men were.

Could this be a sign that I am destined to live with Xander again?
