...CHAPTER 7...
...Re-Meeting the Ex...
"Will Lyra stay at my house and work as Keyla's nanny?" lyra was surprised by the unexpected request from Grandma.
"Nanny?!" sahutnya, who was immediately nodded by Ambar with a pleading gaze.
"Yes Nak Lyra, I need a nanny who can educate Keyla to be a good and obedient child. Seeing Nak Lyra yesterday treat Keyla to the point that she would obey Nak Lyra's orders, I don't know why I had the idea to take Nak Lyra home and be Keyla's nanny." terang Ambar smiled faintly as he continued to stare in Lyra in front of him.
Lyra swallowed her saliva slowly. Instantly he was confused as to what to answer to the old woman. Babysit?! The thing that he had never thought about all this time, being a five-year-old babysitter?!
"Honestly, Nak Lyra, I have hired many caregivers to take care of Keyla but none of them have survived more than a month. All asked to stop working because they were overwhelmed by the behavior of the child. And honestly I was very impressed with the way Nak Lyra directed also guided Keyla until suddenly he wanted to obey with Nak Lyra's orders." continued Ambar again, at length he expressed his admiration for Lyra.
Lyra smiled blushingly, honestly her heart was slightly flattered by Ambar's praise. But once again he was confused, how to refuse the old woman's request without having to disappoint him.
"But Ma'am, if for example I become Keyla's nanny and stay at Mother's house. What about the store that I manage Mom, I also can not always leave my store here... Although, there are two employees but I do not feel good also often left the store. So is my Mom at home who is often sickly and I am unlikely every day to leave her. That's why I'm only a half day into this shop..."
Ambar seemed to think. He nodded in understanding, yes what Lyra said was indeed true. If he works to babysit Keyla, his job will automatically be left behind. Ambar also does not want to force people. Ambar is so bad to ask Lyra for help. Had Lyra not had a job or a business of her own, Ambar believed Lyra would have accepted this offer.
The grandmother let out a long sigh, her mind completely dead-end. While he and Aunt Sumi were tired of taking care of her naughty granddaughter. Look at the age of those who are no longer young. Of course parenting is a heavy burden for them.
Lyra who saw the eternal in Ambar's face, then so could not bear to see it so she tried to weigh again the request.
"Em, look at you, ma'am... I will try to reconsider this mother's request. But I need time and permission and approval for my mother at home. And also I need to think about dividing my time by taking care of my store.." said Lyra. Ambar's smile expanded, staring twinklely at the beautiful young lady and having that shady look. There was a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"Is it Really Lyra?" ask again to make sure. Lyra nodded with a smile.
Then Ambar stood up and hugged Lyra with a happy heart to hear it, hoping that Lyra would really work out her request, becoming Keyla's nanny.
"All right, I wait for the decision from Nak Lyra." he said, cupping Lyra's cheek.
After hugging, they sit back and talk. Then Ambar tasted the banquet that Lyra had just served by her employees, and Ambar told her all about Keyla, about her no longer having a mother. Because his mother died from the time he was born. Also often left out of service by his father out of town to make the child feel less parental affection, there must be Ambar and his assistant at home with him. Keyla still felt alone. She was often envious of seeing her schoolmates come home and go to school with their mother. Even the child often saw his friends on the streets along with his parents spent the holidays.
Keyla also became often clamorous unclear. Raging and destroying things around it. Lyra heard Keyla's story from Ambar. I am concerned about the situation of the little girl, although Keyla is not lacking in material things. But still the love of parents is the most important thing in life.
Can Lyra feel how when she lost the figure of her beloved father at the age of 13teen years. So love and unfortunately Lyra and her mother in the figure of her father. Until now, his mother did not want to marry again, in order to meet with Lyra's father in his paradise later.
After a long conversation, Ambar went home. And Lyra went back to her little room where she was resting in the store after driving Ambar forward.
Lyra pensively stared at Ambar's business card in her hand. The card has the address and the phone number of the owner.
"Am I really going to accept this job?! The nanny?! Oh my God, don't imagine I'll be a babysitter." she chuckled. "But pity Keyla too... It turns out that since birth he has been abandoned by his mother." muttered Lyra, who then let out a long sigh.
Lyra also put the business card in her wallet and began to recalculate the results of her sales turnover.

Afternoon at eleven. And it's Raffa's schedule to pick up his daughter at Kanak-Kanak Park school.
After parking his car, Raffa waited in the waiting chair provided for the guardians of the students who were waiting for his children. All there were mostly mothers waiting for their daughters.
The arrival of Raffa averted their eyes, clearly Raffa did have a very good physical also a beautiful face. To be able to attract the hearts of young mothers there.
Raffa smiled politely at them and looked for an empty seat. He reached into his cell phone and sent a message to someone.
Before long the school bell rang, all the students rejoiced and prepared to go home.
Before leaving class, children usually will sing a happy song and after that recite the closing prayer after learning. One by one the students came out of the class after kissing the back of their teacher's hand.
And Keyla looks out of her class. He saw his father sitting not far away in his class.
"Come on Pa, we're home!" sahut pleased.
"Yes, baby, but before, we'll eat yuk Key first. Suddenly Papa's stomach became laper. Keyla laper isn't it?!" raffa asked her daughter.
"Yes the same Key laper as well as Pa." he answered advancing his lips as he rubbed his stomach.
"Yes already then let's find a restaurant." said Raffa again who was quickly nod by Keyla.
They also rushed to the car. After starting the engine, Raffa drove his car at the speed of splitting the road.
In the car Keyla was busy playing the game on her Papa's mobile phone seriously.
Raffa smiled to see his daughter, then he pulled over for a while his car in front of an apartment. And soon someone got in the back of Raffa's car, and Keyla didn't notice it because she was too focused on her Papa's phone. Suddenly someone peeped his cheek from behind the middle of the car.
"Hallo darling... Just got home from school." said a long blonde young woman wavy as waist. It is estimated that he is only 26 years old.
Keyla was surprised, memorized by the sound and also the smell of the flower perfume that stung it, then sniffed irritably towards him while rubbing the rough cheeks that had been kissed by him.
Without answering her words. Keyla looked annoyed at her Papa who had also just gotten into the car again.
"Pa, why is this Aunt coming too?!" Protesting bluntly.
"The father who brought Aunt Viona. Let's eat together. One more friend will increase rame.." timpal Raffa smiled as he rubbed his daughter's head, then refocused forward and drove his car.
Raffa knew Keyla would protest if she invited Viona. Raffa just wanted his daughter to be closer to his future wife. Raffa has known and been in a relationship with Viona for five months now. Viona was introduced by her best friend. Viona is a beautiful girl who works at a cosmetics company. First met Raffa no feelings for him, but after frequent communication Raffa began to be interested in him. And he wants to try to have a serious relationship with Viona, trying not to drag on with the grief of living in a beloved wife.
Since his wife died, Raffa admitted he was very lonely and needed a companion in his life. Not betraying the love of the wife. Love for Dania is still in the heart even forever her name will never be changed, but she also needs to channel all her desires and pour out her heart, and Viona for him is fit to be his future wife and mother, Keyla said.
Keyla put down the rough phone Papanya the dashboard of the car then crossed hands and leaned back. Her lips pursed upset with her Papa who lately often invite her lover.
The woman named Viona just smiled cynically, of course she did not care about the attitude of her lover's daughter to him. He only thinks about his bright future later, because soon he will be edited by a handsome widower and rich just like his wishes so far.
A few minutes' delay. They arrived at a restaurant.
"Let's get off we're here!" sahut Raffa's. Raffa quickly got out of the car after parking it and was followed by Viona.
When Raffa was holding her daughter to get her off the car. Keyla shouted to someone a few meters behind Raffa's body.
"Tante Raraaa!!" girang shouted.
Lyra, who had just left the restaurant after buying cooked food for dinner for herself and her mother, was shocked to hear Keyla's screams there. And the little girl waved at him in the arms of a man who was on his back. There was also a beautiful woman standing next to him.
"Keyla.." he muttered with a big smile and returned the wave of the little girl's hand.
"Who's dear?" asked Raffa to Keyla who had not seen him because he took his phone that was put Keyla in the car.
"That's Pa, there's Aunt Raraa!" the answer. And Keyla quickly got down from Raffa's sling and ran towards Lyra at the door of Resto.
Raffa turned around after closing the door again. He saw his daughter running towards a woman.
Raffa's smile that had appeared saw Keyla cheerful, fading as soon as he saw who the graceful woman who approached his daughter.
"Ly-Lyra.." the heat is slow.
Seriate...
