Both of Ai's eyes sparkled brightly, she looked even more cheerful than before. Even his cheeks started to blush like his full name, Aishi Humaira. A child who is always loved and loved with bright reddened easy cheeks.
"Does Mother not lie?" He asked with a ray of hope in both eyes.
Sapphira smiled sweetly, peeked at Ai's bright cheeks and hugged her tightly. This child was so fragile and easily persuaded, he also always made Sapphira worried because of his fragile heart.
So, how could he not fall for her?
Possessing it was a destiny that Allah wanted and Sapphira also accepted it sincerely. From the night she first met him, Sapphira was already determined to raise him and this determination is still the same to this day.
"Why should Mother lie? Ai and the twins are the children of Mother, the lack of one of you will make Mother fall ill." He said he was laughing, but this is true.
"Even.. even though Ai was born disabled?" Tanya Ai was still hopeful.
Hearing this Safira's laughter immediately disappeared. He looked at Ai's face with a judging gaze but not as sharp as usual.
"Who said the mother's child was born disabled? No, Ai is a special creature of God. Ai is not flawed but special. Ai's existence was extremely rare in this world and very special." Safira said.
Ai was very happy, her face was getting red and the smile on her face was formed so sweetly.
This is the look Ai is very Safira likes. Because this smile shows that Ai is happy and feels calm.
"Son, be honest with Mother. Is there anyone who says Ai's disabled or something?" Ai couldn't bring it up if someone had never uttered such cruel words.
Ai was still smiling, her pain at school this morning soon disappeared replaced with a sweet mood. It was enough for him to hear Safira's confession, other than that he wouldn't care.
"Nothing, Mother. No one ever said it." Lying Ai.
Ai's smile froze somewhat, perhaps she never expected Safira to raise this question.
"Not in school either. The friends in the class are good and Ai's teacher is good too." He lied again.
But alas, Safira had already seen his awkwardness and secretly recorded it in her heart.
"Good, Mother was glad to hear it. However, next time if there is a problem at school or anywhere please do not hesitate to say it to Mother and Father, okay?" Sapphira, however, continued to advise him.
Ai excitedly nodded her head. She obediently listens but cannot run it because she is afraid Safira is sad to know about the things that happened at school this morning.
After their conversation went well, Safira and Ai continued their small talk while cleaning and watering the garden. For Ai, this afternoon was very sweet because her mind had been enlightened if Sapphira always made it number one in the heart. In fact, he and the twins are the same in Safira's eyes even though he is not Sapphira's biological child.
It was obviously very warm, she prayed in her heart that God would never leave her. Especially to make the people he cares about go away, really..Ai did not want to feel alive in the shadows of loneliness anymore.
...🍚🍚🍚...
The next day at school, Ai was taking a break in class and pulled out the lunch box that Safira had prepared for her. All the food in the lunch box is Ai's favorite food that is not spicy nor sweet.
There was also a milk chocolate dessert box made by Ali last night. It's so good and it's filling Ai's appetite.
"Ai, can I eat with you?" The curly girl who defended Ai yesterday came to Ai's study table while carrying her lunchbox.
He looked embarrassed to approach Ai.
