Not Just Love
Chapter 28. Where is daddy?

Not wanting to be cheated, the young girl joined in the water. Sit down, with one hand thrusting a glass of drink, at the two boys, alternately.

"Sorry, Brother. So, troublesome."

"It's okay. I like them." Zamar let the two children, playing in the water, with a view that did not switch. "Who's their name?"

"Khaira and Khaysan."

"Khaira, Khaysan." Two names, which he had heard, somewhere. "Does his parents work here?"

"No, Brother. Only, his mother. He opened a shop. For, their father. He works as a doctor."

Zamar didn't ask anymore. He was busy tying up Aira's messy hair.

"Yes, take a shower." Zamar hugged Aira in her lap.

"Aila, you're still going to swim, Om."

"Tomorrow, again. Now, it's hot. Om lives there," pointed Zamar, "If you want to swim, Aira comes to the house."

"Well, my house is handsome, so big." Aira had already risen to notice with enthusiasm.

"thank you. If Aira wants to come play, I can."

"Can, Om?"

"By, dong. As for permission, same as his mother."

"No, no. Mami must be mala-mala. By the way, same permission as Mom."

"alright. Later, Om asked permission. Now, we're home, dad."

Fourth, finally up to the seafront. Zamar walked in the arms of Aira and Khay, on the left and right. He drove them to the front of the store.

"Come in and change clothes. You can catch a cold."

"Thank you, Om handsome." Muah, Aira landed a kiss on Zamar's cheek.

"Lima kasih, Om," said Khay who looked stiff.

"Either. Come home first."

"Om handsome, sole will perform here, well. Aila's got a doll."

"OKAY. Bye-bye."

The two boys, come in through the back door. Meanwhile, Zamar was still watching them. He also looked at the shop. For a long time, he did not sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee. Every time he came, he just sat on the balcony, staring at the ocean. Not going out, at all. But, this time, he was attracted to two boys who were pulling on the seafront.

"Where are you from?"

"So Aila belenang same o'm handsome."

"Mommy, I told you. Don't swim, Ai. Why not listen to Mommy?"

"Old, Mommy. Kebul, tulun ujan."

"Udah, it's already."

Maya bathes her two children, alternately. When they were done, they put on clothes, and he fed them both.

"Mommy, Aila wants to stay here."

"Why?"

"There's the sea, Aila likes it. Aila's gonna go get some rest."

A portion of the food is over. Maya gives them a bottle of milk. But, as usual, Khaysan did not want to drink it.

"Why Khay?"

"Aaaa... Glass, "repeat Maya, then move the contents of the milk in a glass.

The two boys finally fell asleep. With hugging, roll. Maya finally works quietly. He checked the financial statements, which he had not had two months, he checked. He also checked the equipment that was time, to be replaced and recorded it.

Today Maya shop, has changed a lot. Start a wider building and a variant food menu. Behind the tavern, he built a residence for his employees, so they did not bother, looking for a place to live. With the permission of the manager of the beach, which is now held by the businessman, Maya can make the store better. The real businessman, Maya knows his identity. But, in order to get in touch with her, Maya entrusts her employees.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the shop will be packed with visitors for lunch. Maya sits at the cashier's desk, paying attention to her employees, serving customers.

He smiled, as one of them, a man walked up to him.

"Why did you come?"

"There's a girl, making an appointment with me." Ansel chuckled amusedly.

"He was sleeping. Come in, I'll bring you some food."

Maya has not had lunch, just once Ansel arrived. So, they had lunch together in the middle room.

"He's very slumbering" said Ansel, who pinched the grilled fish

"He's tired of swimming."

"Hahahaha.he is exactly like you. I love swimming, but I don't know."

"Don't talk about it. That's so embarrassing!" Ansel laughed and almost choked.

Ansel chose to sleep with the two boys who were still asleep. While Maya, sitting in the middle room with a computer screen on. He was like a successful businessman.

Well, for the past two years. In a sense, Maya studied economics, management and bookkeeping. So, what about his education? Maya hasn't thought about it. Right now, his goal is to give a better life, for both of his children.

"Dad." Aira tightened her body, as her two manics met Ansel's closed eyes. He wants to be hugged longer.

Dad, all this time, they called Ansel Dad. Father as in general. Give love and attention. Father who always put to bed every night, but when they woke up, they only slept three. Every time they ask, the mother's answer is always the same, "Daddy works" until finally, they never ask again.

The presence of Ansel every day, was enough for both of them. And that, too, made Maya feel calm. Because they'll never ask "where is Dad?"

Not to mention, Resti's presence as Ansel's grandmother and father, as a grandfather. Plus, Saphira as aunty. A complete family, who wouldn't make them to ask "where's dad?"

Aira inhaled the scent of Ansel's body, as if missing him terribly. Though, they met every day, only when they woke up, Ansel was not with him.

The same thing Khaysan did, he also tightened the body on his sister, until Aira was squeezed.

"Aila's pincer, brother. Undul rear."

Khay didn't move. He took Ansel's hand, put it on his stomach.

"It's Aila's." Grab Ansel's hand, put it on his stomach. "Dad, got Aila."

"Don't whip, Ai. Wake up!"

Aira closed her mouth, with both hands. Then, pretend to sleep.

Ansel actually, had long since woken up, as Aira shouted. With resignation, let the two children fight over his hand, because they just want to be hugged. To be fair, Ansel hugged the two and kissed Aira's forehead, so as not to protest.

The position, which made Maya, want to cry staring at them. His two children, fighting over the affection of a man who is not their real father. Maya who wants to take the notebook in a bag, freezes it in place. His two children, unaware of his presence, were busy pulling Ansel's hand, in order to be hugged.

Without making a sound, Maya exits the room. He ran out, through the back door. He was crying so much.

What would happen if Ansel got married one day? Who will be their father? Maya fears that her two children will find out about Ansel, who is not their father. Maya is scared, having to answer what later, when they ask.

The presence of Ansel and his family, making his two children have a complete family. And that, made them think, "He's my grandparents. He's my aunt and he's my father."

If suddenly, they lose. Maya has to say what?

Maya sits on the sand, crying with her face covered.
