Mama, Don't Cry
Part 4: Surviving Until Time

PLAQUE.

"Can't you understand all these lessons!?"

His slapped cheeks made Ivan speechless when he who had just returned home with the results of his school, which he repeated, he thought if he got this satisfactory value then he would get a little leniency to be reunited with his mother and sister.

"Ninety, that perfect grade is a hundred, I will not give you any more leniency, today you will be tutoring private again, go to your room, now!"

With this result Ivan stepped away from the feeling of anger and resentment more and more created in his heart, he only needed some more time in order to achieve his wish but this suffering made him almost mad and desperate.

"Aren't you being too hard on your adopted son, I mean shouldn't you treat him well?"

"Sister, I can't give him the slightest ear, he has to understand his position later, if only I wasn't barren maybe I could have my own son."

But he can understand the sadness of what the child feels will be harsh treatment from his sister, moreover he was a mother of a child that he is carrying at this time. It would be painful to see a child get such treatment.

"But wouldn't a child as small as him easily have a grudge of his own?"

"Oh come on brother, little boy like him knows what revenge is, come on, let's drink again?"

Although his sister took lightly the circumstances he did but he knew what impact would happen later if his sister still did rough on the child, his heart remained fragile and needed the affection of both his parents.

Getting the results of the repetition that he suspected would satisfy his adoptive mother in fact did not make his heart relieved, the violence he still felt when the wishes of the two people were not in accordance with what they expected. I want Ivan to cry about his situation but his heart is tired of all this.

"Ivan."

The presence of a woman made Ivan immediately stare back where the figure of this pregnant woman kneeled in front of him, his smile was so gentle that he became homesick about his mother who he had just met yesterday.

"You're a good boy, I'm sure you can hold on to it until the time."

The sentence seemed confusing to Ivan and he did not understand what it meant so this woman said she had to ask until the time. Does he understand the sufferer here or how so to think so to him.

"Everything will be fine, once that day comes it won't be able to fight you or defeat you, you just have to wait, you can do that, Ivan?"

Suppose that Ivan gave this woman, he did not expect that she would provide unexpected support but why did she do this. Ivan still did not understand this situation even his inertia had become the answer for this woman.

"Therefore you must follow all their wills without rebuttal, if you keep following all their games then you will gain great confidence to become a legitimate descendant even have a position that can not be separated from you."

For the first time Ivan felt calm and relieved that someone else had given him a support, the happy smile he gave to this woman by letting the soft hand stroke the top of his head. His departure was unfortunate by Ivan but he could not let him stay by his side.

With that support and advice Ivan somehow felt compelled to do all the plans he had been thinking about all along, the grudge in his heart was getting bigger and even the grudge was like pushing him to finish off the two people so that the sufferer could soon disappear.

The red-lipped smile was so beautiful when she was holding the baby who was no longer like a fragile little baby, his handsome face makes Olivia very happy to be able to watch the growth of the child without thinking about something strange.

"Mama's happy, Iqbal's here with mama."

A happy feeling that could not be expressed with a sentence made Olivia softly kiss the child's forehead and lay it right on the mattress beside him.

"But mama misses your brother, Ivan."

How could he not miss the figure of his son if separated by a very long time, he said, yesterday's meeting was very unsatisfactory and the inner thing that he wanted was Ivan to be here with him as he was but Olivia knew that it was impossible.

"Finally you got the perfect score, you're so proud of us, Ivan."

A happy smile was clearly visible on the faces of these two couples when they saw the results of the replays he gave today, Ivan did not know why he was forced to be perfect when he understood his abilities as a child but if he was weak then these two people would be cruel to him.

"In this way, I can calmly give my position to Ivan, tomorrow we will go to the headquarters and introduce you to them."

"Don't forget to celebrate this success?"

This man nodded happily to the advice of his wife, although both looked happy and pleased with the replay he gave but Ivan did not feel as happy as they felt. I don't know why it feels so different when she's with her mom.

As promised, Ivan has now been taken to a place far enough from the location of his house, his neat appearance with a suit that is suitable for his body. He seemed to be prepared to attend a luxurious party at this time.

"Welcome boss!"

The warm welcome to her who had just entered the room was already heard by Ivan, everyone was so respectful and obedient with this man that even gave a warm welcome to their arrival.

"Everyone, I want to introduce you to my son, Ivan Pratama."

Ivan could no longer say when his surname had been changed, though he could not forget that there was blood flowing from his cruel father. His cruel nature will never disappear even though he is currently holding all that back.

"Ivan will take my place someday if I retire and he will lead you later."

There was no pride at all for Ivan when he heard this because he felt that his suffering would increase with this high status, as mafia boss isn't it an easy task and his life is at stake here will be the crazy ambition of this man.

"Ivan, start interacting with all of them because you're gonna lead them?"

"Young master, say your orders?"

One of them made a voice that made Ivan feel if he wanted to give orders related to his mother but he knew that they had all worked very long with the man and it was impossible for Ivan to act crazy just to be taken away to see his mother.

"There are no orders at the moment."

Ivan stepped away from the room because he could feel the eyes that did not like his presence, his presence was still standing with his back to the door of this room trying to calm his heart.

"I don't understand why the boss brought a child who had nothing to do with him as his successor?"

"Either, it may be because his wife doesn't want her husband to marry another woman."

"But the kid can do what, I mean he's just a kid who doesn't understand what the mafia is like?"

Although the sentence sounded painful but Ivan did not care and decided to leave his place, perhaps he did not have the strength to defeat anyone, including his own father, but Ivan had to wait for the right time to get his wish despite the suffering he would feel more than this.

Upon returning from Ivan's headquarters again met with Maya who gave a wave of his hand to come towards him, the distance of their house that was just next to each other certainly makes it easier for them to stop.

"Ivan, let's have some Asoy tea made by Maya?"

"Come on."

His warm welcome certainly made Maya smile happily and immediately invited him to go to his house, after all Ivan could still go to someone else's house even though it was not far from the reach of the woman's eyes.

"Ivan, you're coming again."

Just a nod that he gave but who would have thought if his adoptive mother was here to visit, seeing his figure Ivan immediately turned his gaze so that the eyes did not meet between them.

"I see Maya and Ivan are very compatible?"

"You're guessing that?"

Although these two boys could listen to the two women's conversation it would be a happy feeling to see them being together but not from those who felt that their existence was as sweet or harmonious as the people saidpeople.

"I'm thinking of marrying Maya to Ivan, do you agree?"

"How could I refuse, seeing Maya being so pleased with Ivan, I certainly agree."

I don't know what the two mean but Ivan doesn't care about the thoughts and opinions of many people about his relationship with Maya because their closeness is just a friend is not more than that even the feeling of love that is often mentioned she never felt it for Maya.

"Papah always talks if Maya has to marry Ivan when Maya does not want to, Maya has her own dream partner."

"I see, so am I."

It is impossible for both of them to love each other because in reality both have their own desires for the criteria of their partner but both of their parents are so happy to see the two together and think to marry the two later adults are very desirable.

"What if we marry them right away when we graduate from elementary school?"

Ivan stared strangely at the words of his adoptive mother who was so hasty in acting, doesn't he understand that they are still small and don't yet understand what marriage should be like for adults like them.

"Although it sounds rushed but I agree with your opinion?"

Maya also looked surprised at the words of her mother, her eyes became sad when she found out if she would soon be married to Ivan. Though he has his own dream partner who is entitled to marry him but looks at his mother already thinks so.

"Maya didn't want to marry Ivan."

"I don't want to marry you either, but if we don't follow their will then they will treat us badly?"

Take it slow with the sad feeling Maya gives, it is true what Ivan said if he denied then the father would definitely scold him and say if he was a naughty child also did not obey the orders of the two parents who had raised him.

"But Maya wants to marry Maya's dream partner."

"It could happen later but right now all we have to do is follow their will."

Although it sounds heavy, Maya still agrees with Ivan's opinion because she knows that resistance will not make things good and she must give up her dream of marrying her dream partner to disappear for now.
