Not My Baby
23. Since when did Arka become your son?

Today is the time that everyone has been waiting for, the Heir of Darmawangsa who will continue his father's company in the future is now even one year old. The whole house is busy with preparations for the Arka's birthday party later tonight.

Time goes by very quickly, the baby who used to still bother his mother in the womb is now growing older.

The party held at the residence of the only son of Darmawangsa is almost 90% ready%. Just stay waiting for the guests who will come to congratulate the handsome toddler Arka.

"Grandmother's very happy huh?" Winata who came two days before his grandson's birthday party was unceasingly holding his grandson there and there.

Viona who also follows wherever Winata goes with Arka who is in her carriage.

"Madam, it's time for Arka to take a bath." There is no choice but to end the togetherness of the grandson and grandmother, because if allowed Arka could not bathe at his own birthday party.

"Truely, I forgot the time for playing with my granddaughter." Winata laughed so much with Viona who also laughed at the expression of Davendra's mother.

Winata gets up from her seat and hands Arka to Viona, "Bow her, make my granddaughter look very garden tonight," the message is Viona.

"Calm down, Arka's the lead tonight." Reply the girl was a little amused by her words just now.

"By the way, where's Dave?" Viona shook her head, not knowing the whereabouts of the man since morning.

Winata snorted, "basic boy it!"

Not wanting to be caught by Winata's nagging, Viona chose to leave immediately. He better bathe Arka and dress her son to be more handsome later.

The event went perfectly the preparation they all did from the beginning did not disappoint, as evidenced by the guests who looked to enjoy the party made for the children. The candle-blown event was over five minutes ago, and Viona could only be grateful to witness her son's happiness from under the podium.

The invited guests present were colleagues who worked with Darmawangsa Group, and who would have thought the unexpected presence of people made the once peaceful safe party turn into gripping.

"In addition to being the babysitter of your friend's child, it turns out that you also plan to be a waiter?"

That night was very crowded the servants were overwhelmed to serve the invited guests, because there was no other busyness Viona helped the others take the glass, and dirty dishes that were on the table. But who would have thought if his activities attracted someone to come to him?

"What are you talking about?" Viona stared lazily at the person who turned out to be her half-brother. Naura just suddenly came and spoke harshly to him.

Disdainful smile on the blood-red lips of Viona's half-brother, the woman came closer to her sister then placed the empty glass on the plate that Viona was carrying.

"It fits, too,"

There was no resistance Viona just kept quiet without even responding to her crazy sister, he put back the plate he was going to bring on the table then took a new drink for him to bring to Winata who was standing not far from his current place.

"You're no different from that pe*acur."

Taps! Viona stopped stepping as Naura spoke again, this time the woman not only spoke for Viona herself but for others and it was clear who the peacemaker was.

"Your mouth is so dirty." Viona's Oath condemned Joan's absence allowing her to walk freely like this.

Naura's face was nothing compared to her dirty mouth.

"Contell right? Your friend is pe*acur?

Kyaa!

Naura's loud screams made everyone who had been busy with their respective activities now pay attention to the quarrel between the two of them there.

Viona lost her patience as a result of silencing Naura's mouth she poured the glass filled with juice in her hand onto her half-sister's face.

"Naura!" Joan immediately ran to the wife who was now wet by the juice that Viona flush.

"You!"

Plaque!

The commotion was heard when after Joan slapped Viona in the face, the man did not hesitate to raise his hand even when they were in a public place.

"It's too bad a waiter like you touches my wife!"

Viona smiled cynically, not caring about the pain from the slap Joan gave her.

"Take your wife's mouth so as not to speak ill of my best friend!"

"I'm telling you the truth! Why don't you take it?"

Joan put her coat on the wife's body, "What are you doing here anyway? You should have kept Pe*acur's son in your ugly house!"

Naura's mouth can not be filtered, even this situation women are still able to issue words that are inappropriate for people who do not even exist in this world.

"Arka is my son! Don't talk so much!"

"What?"

Not only Naura or Joan was surprised, all the invited guests also heard Viona saying that Arka was her son.

"You even claim to be the mother of Mr Dave's son?"

Viona was speechless she had just realized what she had said just now, how could she forget that it was not just them there? But many other guests.

"What do you mean Viona?" Dave initially doesn't care about the family quarrel between Viona and the woman's sister, but he is disturbed when Viona lightly says she is the mother of Arka.

Viona's face was puffy, tears kept flowing past her cheeks. The pain of a slap was not felt because of the sight of everyone who was directed at him.

"Since when did Arka become your son? Don't dream."

Dave's words in front of everyone further humiliated Viona, the man further explained Naura's words if she only claimed to be the mother of Arka. Even worse, some of the guests laughed at Dave's words.

What's wrong with his words? Arka was his son. But why is everyone laughing? He does not want to be anyone in the Darmawangsa family, all he wants is to continue with Arka until his son grows up and is healthy.

Viona grinned bitterly in between her cries, supposedly from the beginning she had no hope with this family. Just because she lives as Arka's nanny and gets all the happiness from the workers, doesn't mean she can expect more.

After all Arka is big enough to live without her mother, right? His son would understand.

"You're right, Arka's not my son." Well that's the truth that Arka's not the baby.

Viona looked at Dave's face with a wounded expression, the man she thought had started to think of her as the mother of Arka turned out to be the same as Naura.

Viona wiped away the tears on her cheeks with her bare hands, then she walked past Davendra towards where her son was.

There, Arka was already sound asleep in the arms of the grandmother. Lady Winata, did she not consider it as well? All this time?

"Mrs."

Vienna didn't say anything she was doing just keeping silent while looking at Viona. She watched everything but didn't expect Dave to be able to say such a word to Viona.

"Please take care of Arka, Aruna leave it to me but I can't take good care of her, only you can take care of Arka."

Viona rubbed Arka's face gently, this face would change even more as she matured. And when that came Viona was not sure she could recognize her son's face again.

"Don't be naughty ya, you have to be a good boy like your mother."

Cup...

The last kiss that Viona gave before she did not know when else she could see her son's face later, even after this Viona did not know he would live or not.
