Marrying Sergeant Major
~ 60 ~
I took Lala to the kitchen. Still holding her with one of my hands, the other one filled the glass with mineral water.
After the glass was filled, I sat with Lala, who I immediately faced me with, "Lala want to drink?"
Seeing her head nod, I brought the glass I had filled with water to Lala's mouth.
"Drink first yeah, Lala must be thirsty"
Silent, there was only the sound of Lala hiccup swallowing water.
"Slow down, son" I remember rubbing his head as the sound of water gulping sounded rushed.
After a few seconds passed, the water in the glass was still half left, I then rubbed the corner of his wet lips after putting the glass on the table.
A few moments later Lala's stuffing began to subside, but her breath was still stingy when she took a deep breath.
I kissed his head softly.
"You bobo?"
For the umpteenth time Lala's head nodded, and I immediately got up from my seat.
"We're going to Dad's room, yeah!"
"Eungh" he said, which was then directly connected to the next sentence. "Well, where's bun?"
"Dad's still out, son. Talk to onty Hana again, why?"
Lala responded to me with body language, shaking her head.
When my step was in the room, I slowly put my daughter on the bed. Since I miss him myself, I also lay down beside him
The position we like is actually, sleeping on our side facing each other.
I hugged Lala's tiny body while rubbing the back of her head hoping that my little girl could be calmer soon.
He who still faltered while taking a deep breath, really made my heart sliced.
This is the second time I've seen my daughter cry like this. First, when I stay go to Semarang for work. Once home, Lala who kept looking for me was also crying hysterically like this, Even a bit of her bidding could only disappear after a few hours.
Almost ten minutes in an unchanging position, suddenly Bima entered the room, our view was immediately turned and Bima stepped closer.
The man sat beside Lala who was behind him. By folding one leg on the bed, his outstretched hand stroked the head of the princess.
"Where is he?" ask her with a glare attached to me.
"Ssttt, Lala just went to bed"
"Nothing to say?" Bima's tone is low.
"Not yet, but it's better not to rush into asking, yes! Afraid she's sad again"
Along with the nod of Bima's head, Lala's breath again stung due to sobs.
"What did Hana say?"
"It's your hunch, Bi. Hana tells Lala that you're not her mother, she also says that she's her mother"
A kid Lala's age, knows what a real mother is. I think she only knew about who was with her and accompanied her all this time, who gave her full affection, and who cared for and educated her? She didn't understand anything about the mother who gave birth to her, which she knew I was her mother, I gave birth to her.
"Mbak Hana said what else did mas?" ask me after a few seconds of silence.
"Not saying anything else, he's just apologizing for talking"
"I'm not sure he was just talking about it, he must have scared Lala with his words. If you don't" I said swallow. "It's impossible for Lala to cry like that"
"The time, Bi?"
"I was just guessing the mas"
Mas Bima suddenly glanced at me with squinting eyes.
He must be confused with my bad habits that are still prejudiced negative.
I smiled grimacingly in response to her eyes. While my man chipped up.
"Let's slowly ask Lala" said Mas Bima after being satisfied to glance at me.
"I asked, not me"
"Why?" cold flat.
"I'll do it later. You can't ask. Usually mas will install a scary face, like to jump brawl, fear Lala will even fear"
"You're insinuating me, Bi?"
"No, the fact is that, the face is scary if it is serious"
"I've been eating you for a long time, Bi"
"I'm eating you back, mas"
"Start brave now"
"Start flirtatious, don't you think?"
"Ish," he hissed.
Mas Bima then fell down. Lala's position was in our midst, as if we were both guarding our little princess.
I was stunned when Bima's right hand suddenly stretched out, my two eyes tricked seconds scanning Bima's heavy hand.
Knowing what he meant, I also received a helping hand using my left hand. In that moment, our hands held each other.
"Stay like this, Bi! Whatever the case may be, we'll always join hands like this"
I blinked complete with a smile.
"Never escape from my grasp" Bima mas message that I immediately responded with a nod of the head.
The next second, the man in front of me kissed the back of my hand that was in his grasp.
Seriate.
