Grasping Longs
Part~212
That night after returning from his party, Martin immediately went to his room. At the sight of him Sera appeared to be asleep on his bed.
"Have a good rest, baby. I'm not going to bother you, thank you for this afternoon" she said, then kissed the woman on the forehead.
After that he immediately left his room and let Sera sleep until the next day.
That morning Sera was delivered by Mattew back home, last night Martin kept his promise not to disturb him and let him sleep alone in his hotel room.
"You okay, madam ?" mattew asked as he looked at Sera from the rearview mirror, the woman looked dreamy.
"Hm, I'm fine." said Sera.
"Today Mr. Martin has important business so he never got to see you" Mattew said again from behind his wheel.
"I have no problem with that." said Sera.
Arriving at his house, Sera was surprised to see the door open. He rushed out of his car for fear of anything happening with his children.
But when he just entered he gasped when he saw 3 burly men playing with their six children.
"Mother." cried Merry as he ran towards his mother.
"Sorry, who are you guys so brave to enter my house ?" tegur Sera looked at the three men.
"They're my mistress' man to accompany the kids when you're not around" Mattew said as he walked into the house.
"Oh, well then thank you. Have you guys eaten? I'll cook for you guys." said Sera.
After that he rushed to the cooking kitchen with potluck ingredients, at least this was his way of thanking her.
The next day....
Holidays like this do not make children to be lazy, they still wake up and do homework together.
"Mother, there are aunt nyariin Mommy." call Alex.
"Who, Son ?" Sera who was preparing breakfast seemed to wince curiously, there were usually no guests in the morning.
Sera rushed to see him, but he was immediately surprised when he saw that Susi was already standing at the door of his house.
"Miss Luci ?" sera was surprised.
"Good morning Miss Mauren, sorry to interrupt early." said Lusi by commenting on her smile.
"It's okay, come on in." take Sera.
"How do you know this house ?" added again.
"I saw the usual address you had between the packages and my driver found out." said Lusi.
"It just so happens that we're going to have breakfast, do you want to join ?" tawar Sera with a friendly.
"That would be very troublesome." said Lusi.
"No, no hassle. Go !!" Sera immediately got up from her seat and took Lusi to the dining room which seemed to have six children there.
"They....." Lusi looked surprised when he saw many children there.
"They're my kids" Sera said later.
"Oh, the biological child ?" ask Susie curious.
"They were like my biological children, they were the foster children of my late husband. Except for the only daughter, she's my real daughter." Sera explained.
"Come, it looks like they can't wait for breakfast." she asked when she saw Lusi still flinching in his place.
"Ah, yes." said Lusi and then followed Sera's steps.
"Why is that girl so similar to Martin, is that their son ?"
Lusi appeared to sit opposite Sera, but his gaze did not turn away from Merry who was sitting next to his mother.
Throughout their meal, Lusi was seen observing the little boy was very similar to Martin.
"I'm so glad you visited my house. By the way, sorry that time I went straight home, because I was worried about the children at home" said Sera who is now sitting in the garden behind her house with Lusi, he had to lie because he did not want the woman to misunderstand.
"It's okay, I understand." said Luci.
"So you babysit them alone ?" tanyanya.
"Where's Merry's father ?" investigate Lusi, because Sera showed a friendly attitude to him when she knew the woman was holding a deep wound.
"There, we're separated." said Sera.
"Why do we part if we love each other ?" lusi asked, but he immediately corrected his words as Sera looked confusedly at him.
"I mean you loved each other until there was Merry, then why did you split up or not try to be together again" he said again.
"Not everyone who loves each other must be together, sometimes once in a while we must succumb so as not to hurt the feelings of others." said Sera by commenting on her smile, as she said, but Susi knew behind the smile of the woman there was a wound that had not dried up.
"I'm sorry" said Luci then hugged Sera.
"Why apologize ?" ask Sera not understand.
"It's okay to just apologize, maybe this is the last time we meet." said Lusi.
"Last time ?"
"Hm, ten-of course. After marriage, we will live abroad." said Lusi.
"Homewhere, why didn't Martin tell me? what about Merry later, he'll definitely lose his father."
"Oh, may you be happy" said Sera congratulating withholding the rumble in her heart.
"Thank you, you'll have to come to our wedding and don't forget to bring the kids. All I will promote your wedding dress, believe me after this you will surely flood the order." said Lusi sincerely.
"Ten-of course." said Sera.
"Where I might bring my children, they would be disappointed if they found out that Daddy married another woman" he added.
"Alright, then I should go home. There's some wedding preparations I need to check." Lusi got up from his seat, after hugging each other he immediately left the house.
A few days after that, Martin had not yet come to visit his daughter. Even giving news through his cellphone was not, even though the man was always online.
It was very desirable for Sera to send a message just asking for news, but her intentions were also undo. Maybe the man was busy preparing for his wedding.
Sera should have been happy that Martin was following his will by marrying Lusi, but still her heart was hurt thinking about it.
"Mother why ?" merry asked when she saw her mother daydreaming in her sewing chair.
"Eh, you're working, baby." Sera was surprised, but she immediately commented her smile looking at her daughter.
"Work but be quiet." Merry looked at her mother.
"The mother is thinking about what kind of clothes to design." said Sera reasoned.
"Daddy's miss is it ?" asked Merry who immediately made Sera widen her eyes.
"Indeed Merry didn't miss Daddy ?" Sera asked back, of course she missed the man so much.
"No." said Merry.
"Why don't you, Merry doesn't love Daddy anymore ?" ask Sera later.
"Honey, Mommy don't be sad anymore, Daddy must also miss Mommy." said Merry with a sweet smile, a smile that contains many meanings without Sera knowing.
A few days later Sera returns to town to attend Martin and Lusi's wedding, deliberately not bringing her children because they fear they will be sad to see her father marry another woman.
Sera deliberately came a little slow so as not to stay at the hotel again, because after giving them congratulations. He'll be back home soon.
"Miss Sera." call someone when Sera just entered the hotel.
"Mr Mattew." greeted Sera kindly.
"Why did you just come, ma'am ?" ask Mattew worriedly.
"Why is the show over ?" ask Sera.
"Not yet madam, the show will start if you've come." said Mattew.
"Why wait for me, is there a problem with Miss Lusi's dress ?" Sera was so anxious, before he never let down his customers.
"Let's come with me, you'll find out." said Martin and invited Sera to follow him.
"Hopefully the dress is fine."
