Mommy ... I Want Daddy
Chapter 26 Skulls everywhere

Rin's fondness for the skull affects those around him. Rei bought a keychain with a picture of a skull. Rio also did not want to lose. He bought a hat with skull embroidery.

Robert even presented Rin with a T-shirt with a skull design that he made himself. Rin always wanted to keep wearing that skull t-shirt. Wash, dry, wear. So continues. Rin doesn't want to wear another shirt.

“Robay ... You have to make another shirt for Rin. Every time she takes a shower, I have to wash and dry her t-shirt.”

“Whatever?” Robert showed me his palm.

“Kan, you started to love Rin the sweatshirt.”

“Basic stingy.” Robert scoffed at Hana while sticking out his tongue. Not because of anger. Just kidding. Of course Robert is happy to make a new T-shirt for Rin.

“Mama is not stingy Om Roboh. But frugal. Said mama thrifty it's rich base. But ... I'm not rich, am I?” Rio was straight away.

Hana was glad Rio was on her side but that last sentence was the opposite.

It's time for Rin to take a shower. Rin bathes Apple, his mini-human skeleton.

It's like a baby bathing a baby.

Rin then raised Apple to ask Hana to wipe Apple. Hana immediately wiped the Apple and cleaned Rin's body.

When night comes ...

Rei walks into Lucas' study.

“Pa ... Rei confused same PR Rei.”

“Sini ... Papa ajarin.” Lucas asks Rei to come closer.

Lucas then teaches Rei.

“Rio is done PR?”

“Already. But he was busy making new applications.”

Another time Rio's asking for help for his PR.

“Rei has done its PR work?”

“Already. But Rei was busy training nari.”

Rei and Rio are one class. So, PR or their duties are the same. They can actually do their PR. But they pretended they couldn't do it so they could be with his father. Lucas is a very busy doctor. Sometimes even during sleep hours he had to go to the hospital if there were critical patients.

The pillow talk ...

“Rin's first birthday soon. We prepare cake like what, yes?” Hana is browsing birthday cake.

“Looks like there's a picture of his skull.”

“Do you think Rin is weird?” Hana never saw a baby boy who liked a skull like Rin. Skull mania's.

“Rin it's not weird. It's unique. It might be different from the babies out there. She may be the first baby in the world to love skulls. Maybe we should list Rin in the Guinness Book of Records?”

Hana starts preparing for Rin's first birthday party. He chose a cake with a skull shape.

“Which is good, yes?” Hana asked the two designs that she was still at a loss to choose.

“Rin it likes pink color, Ma.” Rei pointed at the pink skullcake.

Hana is still lucky Rin still likes the color pink. At least Rin still has her girly side.

On Rin's first birthday ...

They sang a birthday song for Rin.

🎶🎶🎶

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy Birthdays.

Happy birthday to you.

🎶🎶🎶

“Blow the candles, Rin.”

Rin tried to blow the candle that was burning above the skull.

“Huh ... Huh ..” Rin did not manage to turn off the candle.

Assisted with Rei and Rio the candle was extinguished.

Mama Berta has prepared various dishes at the dining table. They also eat. Mama Berta also dined together at the same dining table.

Usually maids, waiters or maids eat at different tables or in the kitchen. But it is different from Hana. They already thought Berta's mom was their family. She was like a mother to Hana and Lucas. She was already like a grandmother to Rei, Rio and Rin.

“Taste Abuela tasty.” Rei and Rio praised the food that Berta's mama made. Mama Berta was happy that she could work at Hana's house. Not like when he was working. He was always humbled because he was from Mexico. Because he is a dark resident he must always be vigilant. If the police catch him, he could be deported and have to go back to Mexico and he doesn't want that.

But what worries Mama Berta is if Hana's family returns to Indonesia. Will he be left out? There was no way Hana would bring him to Indonesia either.

But secretly before Mama Berta sleep, she learned Indonesian from Youtube. His age no longer made it difficult to memorize. But he does not give up. He kept repeating and repeating it again.

Time to pick up stuff. Adapting from the culture outside, Hana held a pick-up event.

Rei's already put the phone in the tray. Rio put the game console. Lucas of course put a stethoscope that represents the profession of doctor. Grandma Lucy put high heels dancer mark. Lukman put the toy knife. Hana put the mic. Robert also put a pen with a picture of a skull. But Hana took it straight from the tray. He knew Rin must have taken the pen. But Robert put it back in the seconds of picking things up. All who put things wish Rin would take the things they put.

Unexpected by everyone Rin took high heels.

Ha's? High heels.

Everyone looks at each other. Though everyone thought Rin would take the skull pen. Lucy is happy because Rin takes high heels.

“Grandmother will teach Rin how to dance.” Lucy will pass all her knowledge down to Rin. She used to be a dancer but after marrying Lukman, she became a housewife.

They met when Lukman was studying in America. Lukman fills his free time by watching dancing matches. Just a fad. But when twenty-year-old Lucy steps in to dance with her partner, Lukman instantly falls in love at first sight. Lukman's eyes always see Lucy's every move. Even until Lucy finished dancing. Lucy doesn't see Lukman but Lucy's dancing partner sees him.

“I think he likes you.” Lucy's dancing partner tells Lucy.

Lucy saw Lukman. He feels ordinary. But Lucy's dancing partner takes the initiative to get them acquainted. Lucy's partner approaches Lukman and takes Lukman to where Lucy is sitting.

“I’m Lukman.”

“I’m Lucy.”

After that Lukman just kept quiet because he was nervous. Lucy started the conversation.

“Where are you from?”

“I’m from Indonesia.”

“Where’s that?”

“Do you know Bali?”

“Yes. I've been there before.”

“Bali is in Indonesia.”

From there Lukman ventured to take Lucy dinner. Lucy considers Lukman a friend. But when Lukman cooks for her, Lucy falls in love. The guy who can cook it thinks it's sexy.

If usually women take the heart of a man with his homemade cooking but not with the case of Lucy and Lukman. They're opposite.

Back to the moment ...

Rin wants to eat her birthday cake. Hana splits the cake and gives a slice to each person. Rei and Rio who did like cake asked for more.

“Considerable one more piece. Papa will be angry.”

Because Lucas is a doctor, he wants his children to prioritize a healthy lifestyle. For their sake too. With a healthy body, anything you want to do will be easy.
