Moving On
Avoiding Luke

(CHINA)

Right now, I'm with my wife having lunch together. Anita visited with the provisions she brought from home. Of course he cooks. 

"Mas, the night is told to go to my mother's house" said Anita.

The mother Anita meant was my mother-in-law.

"Yes dear. What's the matter?"

"Just have dinner.  She said mom, misses her kids."

"Okey, baby."

Suddenly Anita stood up, taking a glass of water. Then he gave it to me because my food was over. What a nice woman.

He tidied up the food on the table. And put it back in the bag he was carrying.

"Thank you, dear." I said.

"Sama-sama.  It is my duty to serve the mas with all my heart." he replied

I smiled at him and hugged him tightly. 

"You're good lady Anita. I'm sorry."toss me.

"why apologize, ma'am? It's not wrong."sanya.

"Because you're forced to accept this match."

"I don't have to." she replied. 

Suddenly, a phone call was heard. I let go of Anita's embrace. 

"Just pick up the phone first."

"Yes, um."

I stepped towards the work desk.  Take my phone and get a call from someone.  I'm a little away from Anita, so as not to hear.

"Hello, Nin."

"Yes hello,Al. How's it?"

"Can you come to my house tomorrow night?"

"could. What the hell is it? You're okay."

"Yes I'm fine. Ara invited you to dinner."

"Seriously?"

"Yes seriously. He let you home."

"definitely. I'll definitely come. Thanks, Al."

"Together Nin. Don't forget to come."

"Yeah... "

The phone call ended. I'm still in shock, Ara invited dinner.

I'm pecking on the spot. Until Anita called me.

"Mas, why?" He's coming towards me.

"There's nothing dear."

"Judek. I'm going home first. Don't forget tonight there's dinner with mom. Don't overtime. "

"Yes dear. Be careful, yeah..."

Then Anita left. Leaving my work space. I'm back to focusing on work.

Tonight, I drove to Almira's house.  In the back of the car was already a large doll for her daughter and flowers for Almira. 

I'm getting nervous. Fear began to approach me. Many questions came to my mind.

What if Ara doesn't like her dolls?

What if Ara doesn't like me? 

Hows it? Hows it?

Only negative thoughts came to my mind.

Right now, I've stopped at Almira's house. This is the first time I've come to his house, after Almira's departure.

This house is still as it used to be, even though it has been renovated. My heart hurts from feeling guilty. 

I pressed the bell on the door. I became restless. Sound from within. Then the door opened, behind the door was someone who currently wanted me to hold her tightly. She's my daughter, Arabela.

"Hi daddy.."what my little daughter. I was surprised to hear that, he called me daddy. My eyes are glazed over, my heart is torn to shreds.

"Hi too dear..."

" What's daddy bringing?"

"Hmm, a little present for you." I gave her a doll gift.

"Wow, very big. High baby bears. I love so much. Thanks daddy." The doll I brought was bigger and taller than him. She's so adorable.

"Yes, you're welcome sweetie." I rubbed his head hair.

" Where's my dear mama?"

"It's okay, baby."

"Please enter daddy" he said. He let her in, so adorable.

He stepped towards the guest room, carrying his large doll. Then, she put her doll on the chair.

"Daddy, what do you want to drink?"

"White water dear."

"OKay daddy. Wait, Ara get me a drink."

"Yes dear. Be careful."

He immediately ran to the kitchen. I followed him from behind. Ara picked up the glass that was in the bottom cupboard, it seemed like it was special to Ara because of the shape of her mug for the children. Almira educated her daughter very well.

"Why did daddy follow Ara?" tanyakanya. He knows where I am following him.

"Daddy, fear Ara why."

"Don't worry daddy. I'm fine."

"Okey." He handed me a cup of drink.

"Thank you dear."

"Yoo,ddad. We're back in the living room, waiting for mama."

"Yes dear."

He took my hand. I clasped his tiny hand, and walked towards the guest room together. Very warm, little hands. My heart also became warm. Moments like this are what I want to do with her.

We sat on the long sofa. Ara sat facing me.

"Daddy, can Ara ask?"

"Yes dear." I became nervous, the look in his eyes showed seriousness.

"Daddy, doesn't dear Ara?"

"Yes. Daddy really loves Ara."

"I love you, Dad." Ara hugged me tightly.

"I love you baby. Forgive daddy just came."

"Finally, I can curl a daddy like this."

"Daddy's hug is tight baby. Daddy's not leaving anymore."

"Thank you daddy, you've come to see Ara."

I am overwhelmed with my daughter. He is very mature and understands his parents. I am very grateful to Almira for educating him well. Even though the journey ahead will not be easy.  I have a family, but I want to forget for a moment. I want to enjoy my time with my daughter.

We tell each other stories. He also said he wanted to meet his cousin, who I had said was similar to him. But I gave an explanation for this moment, he hasn't been able to see her. I have to explain with his mother, so that he is not surprised by Ara's whereabouts.

Our laughter echoes in this living room. Shortly thereafter Almira came to us.

"Hi, you've come" he said.

"Hi too. Aye." Yeah." I approached her and hugged her tightly. I miss him, miss him so much.

"Thank you."

"Together,Nin. Welcome Home's..." I smiled at him, releasing a hug. She's still like old times, still beautiful.  I looked into her eyes, she looked happy.

"Mom, let's eat. Ara is laper." said my little princess.

"Sorry, dear. Let's go to the kitchen." invite Almira.

"Hayo papa." Bring Ara. He took my hand. Truly, today I made a heart-flowering flower by the manner of Ara.

I glanced at Almira, she just smiled at me. He nodded his head, telling him to follow Ara.

Right now, we're all at the dinner table. A lot of food has been served. Ara who sat beside me, while Almira was in front of me.

"All the dishes today, which my mother cooked and helped Ara" said Ara.

"Well, Ara's smart. Well done, daddy really likes it when Ara helps Mama a lot."

"Hehehe... Ready daddy."

I saw Almira smiling, though,

"You're all right, right?"

"Yes, I'm fine. I'm just glad to see you both." she replied. 

In the past, I hurt her. But now, I'm trying to make them happy and that's why I make them happy. Maybe, I want to do what makes me happy and both of them. Although there are many who oppose in the future.

"Hayo, we're eating." - Almira.

" Good meal, mommy, papa." said Ara.

" Good meal too" said Almira

"Good eat all."

Finally, we eat quietly. Happiness comes on the table eating. Ara is so adorable, she looks happy. For him this was his first time with a complete parent.
