LECTURER KARREN ADIBRATA
CHAPTER 4 (STEAL VIEWS)

Karren immediately came out of his room, went down the stairs and walked towards the dining table.

But he felt strange because there was no one at the dinner table, even the food had not been touched at all.

“Where is everyone? Why isn't anyone here?” murmured Karren while looking to the right and to the left looking for the whereabouts of his mother and papi.

Karren decides to go to the kitchen and see his mom making coffee for the papi.

“Mam, why isn't papi at the dinner table? Didn't papi say laper?” ask Karren.

“Iya laper, but earlier on her phone she said there was a file lacking so she returned to her study.” Say Key.

“Karren see papi first deh mam.” Karren.

Karren's house has two staircases facing each other, one stairway leading to Karren's room and his parents' room, while the other goes to his living room and his papal workspace.

“Yes there all told to go down the food was cold.” Reply Key.

Karren immediately climbed up the stairs to his papal office, but as he approached the door of his study, Karren heard a papi talking to someone.

“Ah suck! You can't play? To the right, watch out for enemies!” bernard said from his study.

Hearing that made Karren smile, he immediately opened the door of his papi den suddenly made his papi surprised.

“Yesampun Karren! Can't you knock on the door?” bernard asked in surprise when he saw that his only daughter had entered his study and caught her wet.

But Karren just kept quiet, smiled thinly and raised his eyebrows to let Bernard know that his daughter was planning something.

“So this is the work of papi anyway, although again laper is also in stay for the sake of this important work yes pi?” karren.

“Sstt, don't tell your mommy! Can papi in lecturing all day if you ngadu.” Said Bernard while sticking his index finger to his lips.

Karren's smile grew wider, his gaze making Bernard immediately understand what his daughter wanted.

“Yes, yes, yes papi already know what you want.” Said Bernard who immediately took the other phone and transferred some money to his daughter.

“Already, satisfied right? So don't bother papi, tell mommy that papi is still busy.” Bernard.

“Thank you papi!!” Karren kissed her papi cheeks and hugged her tightly.

“Do not hug papi later lose!” bernard said as he tilted his head because of Karren's obstruction.

When he wanted to get out of his papal workspace, Karren saw a mosquito on his papi cheeks, but his papi was completely unaware of it made Karren anxious to make him.

“Pi, sorry yes.” Said Karren who immediately walked back in to get closer to his papa.

Bernard did not comment on Karren's apology for being busy playing the game.

Plakk!! Karren's reflex to hit the mosquito on his cheek caused Bernard to stop his play as he felt his cheek being slapped by his own daughter.

“Karren!!” furious Bernard.

“You have a hidden grudge with papi huh?”

“Mosquito pi, there is a mosquito on the cheek papi, just look at the blood is still on the cheek papi.” Karren walked away slowly.

Bernard only snorted annoyedly, he resumed his game and occasionally scratched his newly itchy cheek from the mosquito bite earlier, making Karren can breathe a sigh of relief and immediately get out of the coworking space but only a few steps out Karren back inside again.

“Pi..” call Karren.

“What else is Karren..” replied Bernard who was already upset.

“Mami says, papi sama mami want me to get a man like a neighbor front house huh?” karren.

Bernard seemed to think for a moment and finally nodded.

“Gibran? Yes, you should get a guy like him, he's a good guy.” Bernard said casually.

Karren snorted in annoyance, he was sure if the male criterion of his papi was too high for Karren who always hung out in a place that his male bar-bar like Darren.

“Kalo I can't get a guy like him how pi?” ask Karren.

“Ya is the same as her.” Bernard replied with comfort.

Karren decides to get out of his papal study, he already has a way to repay his frustration to his papa.

“Where's papi? How come you came down alone?” ask Key.

“Papi still playing mamm games above.” Karren replied with ease.

Hearing the answer from his daughter made Key glare, seeing his mother who was like that made Karren immediately close his ears tightly.

“OM BEAR!!” yelling Key makes the whole house in an uproar.

Karren smiled triumphantly, as every mother was angry, he would call Bernard om bear hahaha…

While in his study, Bernard was surprised to hear the cry of his wife, Bernard already knew who was behind it all and immediately cursed his daughter for complaining to Key.

According to Karren, papi and his mom are adorable, they are both like a young couple even though they already have children as big as him, often the two argue only because of small things, but they are very happy, but in Karren's eyes such petty debates are romantic.

Karren desperately wants to have a husband like his papi, papi treats mami like a queen, spoils her and always supports whatever her mama wants.

“You are both romantic once.” said Karren with hands that have been united.

“Karren!!! Refund papi!” bernard's anger was now down.

“Eits!! Money that has been given cannot be returned loh.” Karren said as he stuck out his tongue mocking the papi.

Bernard wanted to approach the princess only wayangnya and intend to pull her ears, but Key immediately looked at Bernard sharply to make Bernard undo his intentions.

“Assalamualaikum..” said someone who was already standing in the doorway that was wide open.

“Waalaikumsalam..” replied Bernard, Key and Karren simultaneously.

“Gibran?” bernard walked over to Gibran and invited him in.

Similarly, Key immediately lost his anger when he saw Gibran and told Gibran to sit down.

While Karren was silent, he did not want to look at Gibran's face because he was embarrassed to blink his eyes earlier.

Meanwhile, Gibran had been stealing glances to see Karren who had already thrown his face when he saw him.

Karren's current appearance was already more polite than before making Gibran dare to stare at Karren a little longer.

“Gibran, meet this Karren son om, Karren he's Gibran our front neighbor.” Bernard introduced Karren and Gibran.

Karren is upset with his papi, why the papi should introduce him to Gibran, he is more embarrassed because now Gibran already knows his name, Gibran, what if Gibran later told his mom and dad that Karren was teasing him.

“I Gibran Mahardika, call Gibran aja.” Gibran said kindly as he reached out to Karren.

Initially Karren did not want to return the hand, but his parents glared at him making Karren inevitably return the hand.

“Karren.” Karren said with a forced smile.

“You call Gibran aja be polite, he is older than you Ren, because if brother Gibran it feels strange deh.” Key said with a seductive smile made Karren look at the mother.

Karren knew that his mother had a new mission to bring Karren closer to Gibran.

“What are you doing here Gibran?” ask Bernard.

“I want to borrow a hammer om, is there?” ask Gibran.

“There is, let's go to the back shed.” Take Bernard.

Gibran walked along Bernard's ledge to the warehouse at the back.

The two passed through a wall that hung many pictures of their family together, but the steps stopped when a photo caught his attention.

A picture of a girl who looks very beautiful, smiling with her teeth rarely makes Gibran smile.

Bernard realized that Gibran was not following him, he looked back and saw Gibran looking at a picture of his daughter.

“That's a photo of Karren when he was 4 years old, adorable isn't it? Unlike now that is very bar-bar.” Bernard.

Gibran only smiled as he nodded in agreement with Bernard's words.
