Mother to My Children
Episode 62

Osmaro Residence...

Long enough Lidya ma'am was in the Bara residence. He spent time talking and playing with the twins. In his conversation with Syafira, there was not a word that came out of Syafira's mouth about his household with Bara.

It did not feel like the time had started late afternoon, Lidya ma'amitan to go home.

"Aren't you here, ma'am? Fira and the children are still missing" Syafira said.

"Other times yes, after this, I still have another event because" replied Lidya.

"Alright then," Syafira did not insist.

"O yeah, what's Olivia's photo you just take home?"

"Don't ma'am, I'll be angry, Bara,"

" Yes already then. Which kids?" ask Lidya ma'am.

Syafira also invited Lidya to say goodbye to the twins who were playing with tiger uncle.

"Why do you love children playing with tigers anyway, you like to worry if they play the same beast," said Lidya when she saw Nathan hugging tiger uncle.

"Fira is also afraid of ma'am, but what else," said Syafira.

"Later if Bara already bucin with you, say yes do not love children playing with tiger often. Humans are often khilaf, let alone a wild animal, fearing because of hunger he is afraid of danger," said Bu Lidya.

Syafira just smiled, the focus is not to fear the caliph of the pet tiger Bara, but if Bara bucin later to him. He himself did not dare to expect that high. However, in his heart he agreed to the speech of Lidya ma'am.

"Well, will you go home?" Nala approached Syafira and Lidya ma'am.

"Look, baby" replied Lidya.

"Nala come along" whined the little girl.

"Yes oma, just bring Nala, at home just make noise!" continued Nathan who is still fun playing with uncle tiger.

"Nathan, don't play with him!" exclaimed Bu Lidya pointed at uncle tiger, tame tiger was directly staring at bu Lidya. Make the buli kuduk bu Lidya stand up.

"Darling, oma is still busy. Next time Nala's coming?" Syafira tries to tell Nala slowly.

"Oma really?"

"Emmm not too much anyway" said Ms. Lidya.

"Yes, Nala is coming, can you please?" Nala turned to look at Syafira.

"If the oma doesn't mind," said Syafira.

"Of course not, oma was happy, instead" said Ms. Lidya.

Ms. Lidya was really pleased to go home with the driver who had been prepared to take her everywhere. Nathan ends up coming with Lidya's mom home because Nala forced him to come along.

"Say you can't get away from me" Nathan said as Nala whined to force him to come along.

Meanwhile, Bara has just parked his car. He got out of the car and walked to Olivia's grave. Arriving at the tomb, he placed Olivia's favorite tulip flower on top of his tombstone.

"I'm coming again, do you miss me?" Bara rubbed the nissan inscribed with the name Olivia.

"Dear, are you mad at me? do you hate me?" the question suddenly popped into Bara's mind. In the past, he asked Olivia to quit the entertainment world. Because of her possessiveness, Olivia's freedom was completely limited. Trying to roll back his memory, he never saw his wife complain. Even Olivia always said to be the luckiest woman to have a husband like Bara.

However, being too possessive and jealous was the cause of Bara and Olivia quarreling at that time because Bara saw Olivia being hugged by a man while attending an award event, so Olivia had to give birth to the twins prematurely. Olivia, who suffered from cardiomyopathy, was unable to survive after giving birth to the twins. Before she died, Olivia repeatedly said that she did not blame Bara at all for what happened. Not at all.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry" he said softly as he rubbed a gravestone bearing the name Olivia Wijayanti Kusuma.

Bara got back to his car and immediately drove it.

Syafira has finished preparing dinner. She was sure her husband would be home soon. Sure enough, when Syafira finished preparing dinner, the sound of a Bara car klackson entering the main gate.

Syafira immediately came out to greet the arrival of Bara. He took over the bag Bara was carrying and shook his hand.

"Do you want to eat or take a shower?" ask Syafira.

"Mandi," Bara replied briefly as he continued walking followed by Syafira.

"I prepared the water first. O yes, the children came with the mother to come home earlier," Syafira said.

"Mama here?" ask Bara.

"Yes, bring a lot of souvenirs. But there is nothing for Bara, just for me as a child," Syafira explained smiling.

"I'll prepare the water first!" Syafira went straight to the bathroom as soon as they reached the main room.

Finished preparing the water for Bara bath, Syafira came out of the bathroom.

"Mas, the water is gone." Syafira's voice stopped when she saw her husband had changed his face while staring at the wall that was now empty, there was no photo of Olivia anymore.

Slowly Syafira approached Bara.

"Who would dare take down Olivia's photo?" the tone of speech is still a little low.

"That's..."

"Where's the photo?" not yet Syafira finished answering the first question, Bara has continued to ask and this time the intonation is as high as possible.

"The photo is in the gold warehouse, and I sat down to explain" Syafira said.

" Why do you dare to take a picture without my permission, Fir? Is it because I'm being nice to you that you're getting bolder and sassy? You think by getting rid of Olivia's photo, you can get her out of my heart? No Fira, until whenever he will remain in my heart. I said give me time until I'm ready Fira. When the time comes, I will lower it myself, why can't you be impatient?! Do you really want to get her out of my life? Do you really want me to forget him ? Can't I keep his love, keep his name? Is that what you want? Answer Fira!" said Bara with a flash of anger.

The deg! Syafira's heart ached, he did not expect Bara's reaction to be this angry, even with his insistence on accusing Syafira of wanting to remove Olivia from Bara's life, as if the selfish Syafira wanted to monopolize Bara for himself.

It seems, the energy to just explain that Lidya ma'am who dropped the photo was gone. Syafira just wanted to know how important she was to the man, whether she would accept the photo decline wisely. Or at least he asked and asked for an explanation from Syafira in a good way, not like this. Directly angry and attacked Syafira with various accusations that are the same as not true.

Syafira never thought of seizing Bara from Olivia, never wanting to remove Olivia from Bara's heart. Not at all, even if he could only want to have a little place in the heart of her husband as a wife, not just the mother of her children without thinking selfishly to ask for the heart completely. Little, little recognition as a wife.

Syafira fell silent, trying to regulate her feelings. Trying to hold back the tears that had been mounting in the corner of his eyes.

"Why shut up Fira?" bara asked, this time his tone was slightly lowered, perhaps because he saw the face of Syafira who tried to hold back his tears.

"Are you unable to ask nicely? Should it be with this kind of anger? Is that how Bara thinks? Is that what I am in the eyes of Bara? Want to get rid of Olivia's mother from the Bara mas life? Is that what you see and feel about me? Okay, I get it! It turns out that the Bara mas do not know me enough, especially to keep my name also on one side of the Bara mas heart. I'm sorry, if I'm as selfish as Bara thought," said Syafira, with all her might holding back her tears. He immediately walked past Bara who was still in his place, trying to digest every sentence Syafira said.

Syafira paused for a moment behind Bara, she wiped away her tears that remained dripping even though she had been resistant.

"Photo mbak Olivia is still in the warehouse, I will tell people to return it, I make sure the photo is re-installed as before, without change or defects at all," syafira said with a trembling tone and immediately stepped his feet to leave the room.

"Fir..." Bara wanted to prevent Syafira from coming out, but his still chaotic and unstable mind, made him not continue his sentence, his tongue suddenly twisted. Let Syafira reflect on her own mistakes first, Bara thought.

Syafira thought Bara would ask her not to go from there, but it turned out to be wrong. Shafira continued her steps, opened the door and exited from there. He felt it was not his room, rather Bara and Olivia's room. He felt he had no right to be there.

"Damn!" as Bara said, he sat on the edge of the bed. Combing her hair in frustration using her fingers. His feelings are completely fucked up. Sonya's arrival to the office, added when returning home Olivia's photo has been lowered, making it increasingly unable to think clearly. Though he hopes Syafira can convince him that he is not what Sonya said.

Bara had already started to like Syafira but could not forget Olivia if that was what Syafira wanted.

"Why can't you be more patient waiting for Fir.." she explained.
