Not Sugar Baby (Mommy)
Invitation for Dinner
“It's up.” Delano said that with a big smile. “This is Mr Lecturer's house right?”
Aris did not answer. The man got out of the car without saying thank you. The younger man slammed the car door violently.
“Gosh!” Adelia shook her head slowly looking at it from the passenger seat. “Should he be like that?”
“Just let him be like that.” Delano could only smile. “We better just go home.”
Adelia didn't say much anymore. He just obeyed what his dad said. It just so happens that he is tired too.
“But by the way, Daddy really used to be an angkot driver?” ask Adelia to be curious.
“No.” Delano shook his head slowly. “It just so happens to have learned from a reliable driver.”
There was nothing more the little girl in the passenger seat said. He just believed what the man said.
Now, Adelia was thinking about something else. It's about the match and the will.
“Daddy really won't marry me?” adelia asked seriously.
“But you've been set up?” Delano asked back.
“That guy was the one I was betrothed to and as Daddy saw, he's not a good person.” The little girl flicked her shoulders casually.
“But it could have been just because he felt awkward.” Unexpectedly, Delano defended.
“Oh, that's right.” Adelia sighed softly. “After what happened and you still defend it?”
“Who knows it.” Delano flicked his shoulders, while remaining focused on the highway.
“I don't know if Daddy is too good or just pretended to be good.” Adelia still couldn't understand.
“I'm just a regular human being. Not spared from mistakes and other bad things,” replied Delano even wise.
In the end, Adelia chose to give up. He did not want to hear any talk and just wanted to sleep. At least, for now he wants to think calmly.

“Loh?” Adelia looked at her phone with both eyebrows raised.
“Aaan anyway?” Galih asked curiously.
“I got an invitation from Oma I,” replied Adelia looking so unnerved.
“Lah, Non Adel's.” The stocky fellow Delano's men clucked in annoyance. “Kiraiin out of the draw or something. All you know is dinner.”
“But this is amazing, Om Galih. You see Oma never hugged our family.”
“Loh, how can you?” The man called Om was of course confused.
“Iya, because Oma and our family are not familiar.” The tiny woman sitting on the third floor living room sofa was grimacing.
To be honest, Galih's mouth was already itching to ask in more detail. But the man knows himself if not his capacity to do so. As a result, he just nodded.
“But how ya?” Adelia looked confused. “I was told to come with Papa, but I again males.”
“Do not do so, Non. Let's how, it's your father.” Unexpectedly, Galih instead gave advice.
“How else, Om? You're already evil papa with me and mama,” Adelia answered honestly.
Galih was really anxious with the woman in front of him. It was very desirable that he locked Adelia's mouth, so as not to speak too honestly. But anyway, he was just an outsider.
“Daddy is home.” Adelia pranced happily to see the man she had been waiting for. “Bring the food right?”
“Iya this.” Delano showed me the actual package he had been holding since.
For a moment, Adelia forgot about tomorrow's dinner invitation. He prefers to eat dinner first, until he does not realize that his phone is clinking twice.
[Father: Tomorrow oma you have dinner.]
[Papa: I'll pick you up later.]
Unfortunately, the owner of the phone did not read the message. Adelia cleaned up and went to bed after eating, without caring about her phone. Only the next morning did he read, but the father also did not reply.
“Nyebelin really.” The little girl grumbled. “Padahan read, but not answered at all.”
“Who? Your dad?” Marcel asked.
“Not get money monthly times, so he sulks.” Poppy immediately sneered.
“Not. If Daddy yesterday I transfer money to buy food. This is what I'm talking about is my ungodly birth papa.” Adelia did not hesitate to curse.
“Hush! Father himself kok said durhaka?” The kemayu immediately slapped his best friend's lips softly. “Sins.”
“Lah, was he the first to sin. So no problem dong called durhaka.” Unfortunately, Adelia didn't really care.
“Emang why if your papa does not reply chat?” Poppy asked.
Adelia of course quickly told him what had happened to the oma. The woman did not forget to ask for an opinion about who she had to go to her mother's house for a short night. For Mr. Aris' problem, Adelia hasn't wanted a story and probably doesn't need one either.
“Go with your papa only. Let's say filial son of oma. Who knows, you will get support later,” muttered Poppy feel very confident with that nonsense.
“But what if it turns out papa brought Bella too?”
“Could not.” It was Marcel's turn to speak, waving his hand. “Your father has already been blacklisted with your eyes. How dare he even bring a mistress who is pregnant?”
“Who knows right?” Adelia flicked her shoulders casually. “Then it's like that, I better take Daddy too right?”
“Don't be crazy dong. He's just an outsider.” Poppy is back in protest.
“But he's my girlfriend.” Adelia would obviously argue. “Oma does not prohibit bringing a girlfriend kok.”
Adelia's two best friends could only raise her two hands in surrender. They tried to provide the best solution, but apparently Adelia was reluctant to hear. The little girl, it seemed, was in a time of rebellion. He had even sent a message to Delano and was fortunately confirmed.
“Tersubmissive. What we have clearly told you,” said Marcel, a bit anxious also with his stubborn friend.
But fortunately this time Adelia rebelled because it turned out that what she feared came true. Aditya Lesmana, unexpectedly brought Bella to the show of the oma. Even wrapped in one of my mother Adelia's favorite dresses.
“Why can he be here?” adelia asked with a frown, a sign of dislike. “Then why is she wearing mama's dress?”
“Because you began to rebel, then Papa will also no longer want to hear you and will do as Papa likes.” Unexpectedly, Aditya said that to his daughter.
“What Papa means?” adelia asked, confused.
“ From now on, Papa won't let you be free again, Adelia.” Aditya said that with a hard face.
