Let Us Unite
Part 8's. The Sky of Paris
POVS. Ishanas.
A clear afternoon in the sky of Paris. The beautiful twilight glow sparkles golden orange and gives rise to a unique violet purple gradation. I stared at the beautiful colors in amazement because I was actually one of the admirers of twilight.
I don't know now what to say should I be grateful or lament fate when I see the twilight that I now see so beautifully adorning the sky of Paris. I must admit this twilight is so evocative of our hearts for its beauty but nevertheless twilight always reminds me of the dark times I once was. The time when I was forced to hand over my crown that I had previously guarded with all my heart. There was a pain in my heart when I remembered all that but the pain and disappointment seemed to pay off when I looked at my two cute little angels and the stingy.
Like dusk that never tired waiting for the end of the day like that I wait for the happiness of life to come to me. From the language of twilight that teaches the meaning of patience and sincerity from which I learned to face the bitterness of life.
Dusk is never wrong only memories that make me hurt when I remember it. May it be like dusk that ends the day beautifully my life I hope so.
I looked at my son Nathan in my lap. I am grateful that this child never troubled me. I see this kid is never fussy in contrast to Tristan who sometimes I can't stay. Left a little Tristan was already crying.
I kissed Nathan's face while continuing to be grateful to remember that my struggle was not in vain all this time. I believe that behind every incident there must be a silver lining. Yes, although the incident that happened to me in the past is very regretful but I never regret God has entrusted two little angels to me even through the wrong way.
I just kept kissing the cheeks, nose and hands of this kid. I never feel satisfied. I love and love him very much. Without me noticing my tears dripping when I remember him later had to be raised without a father. Although mas Edward will position himself as a father but surely it will be very different from his own father especially mas Edward and Lusy already have their own children.
"This grandfather Tristan fussed fussing constantly from earlier," said Lusy from inside the house who is now walking closer.
I'm turning. Apparently I didn't realize that Tristan was crying. I'm just focusing on Nathan in my lap.
"So, I want to put Nathan in the room for a minute."
I quickly walked into the room and put Nathan on the bed then ran outside to retrieve Tristan from Lusy's sling.
"Cup-cup, baby!" I said as I reached out to take Tristan from Lusy's sling.
Just getting into my arms, Tristan suddenly stopped crying. Maybe she knows who her real mother is. It is true that people say that the bond is very strong. I took Tristan to a couch and suckled her.
Brother Lusy approached me who was breastfeeding Tristan.
"Dek you do not like to cry in front of children are afraid of the same effect on their minds and do not let them even become crybaby because they see their mother often cry."
I nodded, apparently Brother Lusy had seen me cry earlier.
"No need to remember anything that has passed. You need to remember they need a strong mother and you believe you are capable of this. Don't worry brother and brother Edward will always be with you."
"Thank you, brother." That's the only word I can say. I don't know what it would be like if Lusy wasn't there next to me. All this time he was always encouraging me when this self felt tired and desperate.
"Nathan where?" How come you don't give to big brother let big brother."
"Lho kok put to sleep anyway Dek, this is still afternoon! You remember the word grandma used to say in the village that babies should not be put to sleep just want maghrib gini can-can he will be fussy because disturbed by other creatures."
"Ah is it just a metos Kak, do you believe the same as that?"
"Not sure, but you also know that from three in the afternoon until the Maghrib time is not recommended to sleep, he said is not good for health."
"Yes Syasa also never read it but how else Kak name is also a baby can not be set hours of sleep. Cook I have to wake up again Nathan's bobo." My protest.
"That's not what you mean Brother, if Nathan is bobo now yes already aja aja he bobo not need disturbed sleep but next time try not to sleep at the time before the Maghrib again."
"Yes, I will try. Can I ask you something?"
"What do you want?"
"I'd like to ask Brother for help. I want to work, sister, can you take care of the twins while I work?"
"Do you really need money? Let brother love you so you don't have to work. Pity the twins will lack your attention."
"Not so Brother I'm ashamed of the same mas Edward has been hitchhiking even though his brother often helps meet the needs of our daily lives."
"It's me and Edward's heartfelt to do everything else besides the twins are pounding me."
I know Lusy and Edward's brother have been sincere in helping me but I don't feel good looking at the face of Lusy's mother-in-law who has always been cynical to me. Maybe he thought that all my needs and my baby were taken care of entirely by his son and daughter-in-law for seeing me not working when I came to this country with my father's money and credit cards.
"But if you make you can work at the sister boutique so the cashier. You can also take Nathan with Tristan to the boutique later brother prepare a baby basket there. Oh yes, I'm sorry because I can't take care of Nathan ama Tristan because you often go out to review some other sister boutiques. Especially now that Darren often succumbs to his illness so brother also has to focus on him, but you don't worry if there's a certain time brother Tengokin the twins." Said Lusy at length.
"Yes, sister is okay. My sister has given me a job, I am grateful. By the way Darren is sick, brother? Why don't you say Darren has a disease?"
"Huh." Brother Lusy sighed.
"He's bipolar."
