"I love Aunt Naura because the woman you call my mother is the woman who gave birth to me in this world!" Nicholas, who was about to reach the door, suddenly stopped his steps, hearing Nathan's words.

Nicholas turned his body around again and looked at Nathan with a sharper gaze than before.

"What other joke are you playing, Nathan? you think I'll believe it?" said Nicholas in a cynical tone.

Nathan exhaled and the look on the young man's face now looked very sad.

"I'm not playing a joke, brother. I'm telling the truth. Brother remember why I wanted to go straight home and intend to get out of my sister's apartment, when my sister first brought me to my sister's house and introduced me to Aunt Naura? at that time, I felt very disappointed to see him who already had a family and felt foreign when I mentioned my name. However, when Brother told me what really happened, I understood why Aunt Naura could, did not recognize me," Nathan said at length, trying to convince Nicholas.

Nicholas fell silent. The shadow when he first brought Nathan to his house flashed. He vividly remembers Nathan's shocked face and the look of hatred that radiated in the teenager's eyes, when he first met his mother Naura. Back the man remembered his papa's suspicions all along.

"I still can't believe it" he sighed softly.

"I'm also trying not to believe it, brother. But that's the truth. I was left at 6 months old. I even just found out how my mother's face, from the photo sent by my brother, Kak night where I came out of the house, Sis. Had it been that night, Brother Arsen had not sent the photo, I might never have known how my mother's own face would have been" Nathan said, trying to hold back her tears.

"But why aren't you being honest? why did you tell me that you've never met your real mother? huh!"

Nathan closed his eyes at a glance and exhaled his heavy breath. "Why don't you want to know why? __that's because I don't want Aunt Naura to make a difference just trying to remember me. Isn't it Big Brother who said it himself, if every mom tried to remember her past, she would have a very severe headache? so I decided not to tell you who I really am,"

Nicholas was silent. The man still looked hard to accept the reality that had just come out of Nathan's mouth. However, if you remember all the treatment of his mother to Nathan that he thought was too excessive, and associate the words of his stepmother Nathan while at the restaurant and the same talent between the young man in front of him with the mother, and the mother, there was no longer any reason for him to deny what Nathan had revealed just now.

"Sister Nicho, I know, this may be very hard for you. I will not force you to be recognized either. I even now want to beg my brother not to tell Aunt Naura this truth. I'm fine, if my whole life calls her Aunt, as long as Aunt Naura can be happy, with no memory of her past. I'm sincere, Brother," said Nathan who this time has shed tears. The man who had not shed those tears for a long time, this time he really looked fragile, so that the tears that were originally reluctant to come out, now had no qualms about showing himself.

Nicholas was increasingly unable to say anything more. The man was still really like dreaming, between being ready and not being ready to accept reality.

Nathan exhaled with a single stomp, then stepped towards the closet. The young man, took out his bag and put his clothes inside. After, he thought all his belongings had already entered the bag, the young man cradled his bag and swung his feet, about to come out.

"Where are you going?" Nicholas reopens his voice.

"You want to make me look bad?"

Nathan scrunched his forehead, hearing Nicholas say.

"I mean, Brother?"

"With you gone, doesn't that mean making me the most evil human being? I've been seizing your biological mother's affection all this time, how could I let you go?" nicholas said without looking at Nathan.

"I don't think of Big Brother like that. You never took it from me, but it was fate that brought Brother together with Aunt Naura,"

"Why do you still call her Aunt Naura?don't you want to call her Mama?" ask Nicholas.

"Wind, of course you want. That's the thing I really want. Big brother doesn't know how hard I tried to resist hugging him, and calling him mama? that's very difficult, brother. It really takes a struggle to be able to act ordinary in front of Aunt Naura. But, how could I possibly call her mama when she doesn't remember me at all? I don't want to, that good woman, just because of me, brother. Let everything remain as usual, the important thing is that I can still see him smiling happily, I'm already happy, brother," Nathan said, a little emotional.

"But, at least in front of me you call her mama, don't continue to Aunt Naura when you know clearly that mama Naura is your real mama,"

"I don't want it to become a habit later, sister. I could have subconsciously called her mama later, when we were talking in front of Aunt Naura," Nathan said.

Nicholas fell silent. To be honest the man was really feeling in a frenzy right now. On the other hand there is a fear that arises, if at any time the mother knew that Nathan was her biological child, the woman will forget him and prefer to pay more attention to Nathan than him, he said, but on the other hand, the man will be the most selfish person, if it covers up the reality.

"Nathan you're not going anywhere! let you stay here! if you leave, you don't appreciate me at all" Nicholas said as he left Nathan's room.

"Where are you going?" nathan exclaimed before Nicholas' body completely disappeared.

"Back home!" nicholas replied, concisely solid and clear. Yes, the man finally decided to return to the main house, even though the night was getting late.
