I Found Love With You
107. Foursome

“Why are you smiling at that Thunder?”

Sadiyah again did not heed Kagendra's question. He asked Faras and Faris.

“Aras and Aris happy not to stay with Dad?”

“Senaaaaang once...” replied Faris.

“Aras is also happy?” ask Sadiyah.

Faras nodded his head in excitement.

“You go home with Mom or still want to stay with Dad?” ask Sadiyah.

“Unfortunately Mom can't stay with Dad?” ask Faras.

Sadiyah did not answer Faras's question directly.

“Aras will be very cool if we all stay together.”

“Aris also. You ever lived with Dad too? Aris see many photos of Mom at home Daddy.”

Sadiyah sighed heavily.

“Now Mom can not stay with Dad.” replied Sadiyah slowly. He was afraid that Kagendra would get angry again.

“Why?” ask Faras and Faris together.

In my heart, Kagendra asked the same question.

Sadiyah tried to find a reason that Faras and Faris could easily understand.

After a while trying to find the right reason, Sadiyah finally found the answer and hoped Faras and Faris would understand.

“Now Mom is busy. I hope Faras and Faris stay with me first. Later if Mom is not busy anymore, I will stay with you.” Sadiyah gave a less plausible answer.

“When?” ask Kagendra, Faras and Faris simultaneously.

Sadiyah stared intently at Kagendra and replied Kagendra with a sharp gaze as well.

“Later if Dad is good with Mom, then Mom wants to stay again with Dad.”

“Daddy is really good Kok Bu. Every morning, I always make breakfast for Aras and Aris. I also like to make sure we play. Every day I always take Aras and Aris to my office. So Aras and Aris are not home alone. Aren't you, Ras?.” Faris asked Faras for support.

“Iya. I bought lots of toys and books. Father also every night always bacain stories for us like Mother.” Faras turn to promote the goodness of their father.

“The good father is just the same as you. If the same Mother, Father is not good.” said Sadiyah.

“Do not affect anything negative in children. Don't tell me that Aa's never been good to you. Don't make the kids' views so bad on Aa.” Kagendra scolds.

“Daddy is good with Mom. Dad used to tell me about a good mother. Aren't you, Ras?” faris returns asking for support to defend her father on his twin brother.

“Iya. Dad used to tell me that Mom was really good with Dad. Father said, I used to love the delicious masakin for Dad.”

“You guys are hungry no? What do you want to eat?” Sadiyah tried to distract Faras and Faris.

“Aras want to eat fried kwetiaw.” pinta Faras. Faras' favorite food is almost similar to Kagendra's favorite.

“Aris want to eat fried chicken in ads.”

“Aris don't eat too often like that.”

“But Aris wants him to eat it.” sulks Faris.

“Aa often bring them to eat at fast food restaurants yes.” recriminate Sadiyah.

“No.” Kagendra did not accept Sadiyah's accusation.

“If not, why now Aris asks fried chicken like that. If not familiarized where maybe now Aris sulked like that. Iyah never get used to children eating fast food.”

“You should not just accuse like that. Every morning Aa prepared a meal for them. For lunch and dinner, Aa asked Mom to prepare it. If you don't believe me, you can call Mom.”

“Then it's like that, why Aris sulks asking for fast food.”

“Mana Aa know.”

“Aris eat the same as Aras only yes.” refer Sadiyah

“No.” Faris still whine buying fried chicken from the famous fast food restaurant.

“Aris...” exclaimed Sadiyah slightly snapped.

“Ayaaaah...” did not manage to sulk at Sadiyah, Faris launched her attack on Kagendra.

“Aris must hear said Mother. Yesterday Aris had eaten crispy fried chicken. Now Aris eats another, which has vegetables.”

Sadiyah swerved to hear Kagendra's words.

“Ayam fried crispy made by Mother.” sahut Kagendra.

“Ya already, Aris eat like Aras only.” Eventually Faris gave up on her will.

“You don't be too hard on the kids. Allow them to eat the food they want. They also want to be like other kids who can eat at fast food.” restaurants

“Aa do not try to change the habits that Iyah instill the same children. Fast food is not good for children. Iyah worried they will be addicted to eating fast food.”

“Iya Aa get it. It just has to be softer. They are still children. Don't be too hard on them.”

“Yah ask Aa not to ruin Iyah's upbringing with them. Aa hasn't taken care of them since the baby. So Aa should not be willing to advise Iyah on how to educate them.

“Pardon Aa for not being next to you when you really need Aa.”

“Already...do not need to be tapped again. Lazy Iyah heard it.” Sadiyah left the place to order food for Faras and Faris.

Kagendra could only sigh at Sadiyah's words. He realized that what happened to Sadiyah was his fault.

After finishing ordering and paying for the food, Sadiyah returned to where Kagendra and their children were sitting.

“If Aa wants to eat, order and pay for yourself.”

Kagendra was disappointed that Sadiyah did not order food for her.

“Aa not hungry.”

“Ya already.”

After a while, two plates for Faras and Faris were on the table.

“You didn't eat?” ask Kagendra who saw there were only two plates of food ordered by Sadiyah.

“Iyah already ate earlier together with Mas Guntur.”

Sadiyah's reply further upset and disappointed Kagendra.

“Titip kids in one week. Iyah want to go out of town.”

“Where do you go?”

“Jogja.”

“What do you want to Jogja?” ask Kagendra curiously.

“No need to kepo.”

“Aa should ask. You are still Aa's wife and you must ask permission from Aa.” said Kagendra.

“Iyah forgot that Iyah still has a husband. During these six years, Iyah is free to make her own decisions without having to ask or ask permission from her husband.” Sadiyah quipped.

“Now your husband is in front of you.”

“Ya already Yes permission now only. Yes permission to go to Jogja.”

“If Aa doesn't allow?”

“Bodo highly.”

“You can't be like your husband. You are not afraid of sinning if...” before Kagendra finishes his sentence, Sadiyah cuts him off.

“No need to remind you of sins. Iyah was tired of hearing Aa talk like that since the beginning of our marriage. Stale.”

“Iyah.Sa has said that do not say negative things in front of children. Aa do not want children affected by negative words.” Kagendra warned Sadiyah.

“Dad pissed off with Aa. Aa value decreases in the eyes of Iyah. Now the value is minus.” stressed Sadiyah who reminded Kagendra that now he is still on probation.

Kagendra who forgot that he was being judged by Sadiyah could only sigh violently.

Sadiyah saw Faras and Faris had finished their meal. He immediately gave each one a glass of water.

“Aras and Aris, later you go home with Daddy first yes. Mom wants to go out of town, so you guys stay with Dad.” first

“No time, Bu?’ ask Faras.

“Only one week. After Mom gets home, I'll pick you up at Dad's.”

“It was not only Aa's house but yours, Aras's and Aris's house as well.”

Sadiyah did not heed Kagendra's words.

Again, Kagendra could only be patient with the test given by Sadiyah.
