Not Sugar Baby (Mommy)
Mutually Recognize

 “Goodnight, Oma.” Delano shook the hand that owned the house and the guests. “Include me Delano.”

 Oma Tessa looked at the thirty years old man in front of her with squinting eyes. He looked at Delano who looked quite neatly, but found no reproach at all.

 “After work?” ask Oma for a little chat. “Kok still fresh?”

 “I only got to go home to change clothes, Oma.” Delano replied with a big smile.

 “Omong-by the way, I have a little parcel,” Delano continued while thrusting a bag that seemed to contain cake. “Not something special, but I hope enough deign.”

 “Where did you know that Oma likes to eat brownies?” Next to the old woman's eyebrows was raised.

 “Just a coincidence, Oma,” Delano said shyly.

 “Well, how is Oma?” Adelia quickly embraces the arms of her mercenary. “Daddy Delano is really good right?”

 Oma Tessa did not say anything and could only nod slowly. It was very slow to the point of being invisible, but that was enough for Adelia.

 “Good how about inviting people's children to stay together.” Aditya quickly accused.

 “Free in the hostel, Om. Bedroom.” Delano would of course explain politely.

 “Who knows if you visit each other at night.” Bella unequivocally insulted.

 “What is clear is that I am not pregnant out of wedlock,” replies Adelia which of course makes Bella growl in anger.

 Oma Tessa actually somewhat enjoys this debate. He was quite happy to see that his grandson was not easily demeaned like that, it was a pity that it was also impossible for them to continue to be allowed to fight.

 “Good.” Oma Tessa claps her hands once. “Oma is sure everyone is hungry and Oma also can't wait to blow the birthday candle.”

 “Oma birthday?” Bella screamed at that. “Kok didn't say the hell. I didn't prepare a gift.”

 “I didn't invite you, so I don't need your gift at all.” Unexpectedly Oma Tessa said that. “Now, let's go to the dining room only.”

 With the face of annoyance, Aditya was forced to herd his new wife. Though Bella has been warned not to do much, but it seems difficult.

 And now, everyone is sitting in the dining room that has two dining tables. Enough to hold twenty people. Adelia, Aditya, Delano and Bella, sat down together with Oma Tessa. Om and aunty with a couple are also at the same table.

 “So how long has it been dating?” It was Bayu who first asked.

 “Not long.” Bella and Adelia answered simultaneously, to the point of making everyone turn their heads.

 “I asked Adel.” Om Bayu said that, while glancing dislike. Makes Bella feel embarrassed.

 “Not too long.” Finally Adelia replied, after taking a peek at the vandals earlier.

 “Not too long ago how long?” It was Oma Tessa's turn to want to know.

“Not a month, Oma.” Delano replied because his partner looked a little confused. “The introduction certainly has been longer than that.”

 “You look older than Adelia, does it work?” The aunt asked.

 Adelia's breath was held back from hearing that. To be honest, he was a bit afraid that Delano would be sent off just because of his job. In contrast to Bella who looks very happy.

 “Already. I've been working.” Delano replied politely and not awkwardly at all. “Yeah, although maybe his job is just something trivial.”

 No one replied to Delano's words, but everyone stared at him. Even the cousins at the next table were curious. That led Delano to explain further.

 “Oh, did you stay in the office when Adelia came to visit?” A cousin snaps from the next table.

 “Not.” This time, Adelia answered. “Daddy Delano saved me when I went to the nightclub.”

 “How can it happen?” Oma Tessa asked, glancing at her former ex. As if accusing Aditya is not good at looking after girls.

 “Intinya there are people who do evil with Adel, continued Daddy Delano who again work to help. Though Adel was drunk, but Daddy went straight home after helping book room.”

 “You're really not doing anything?” asked Oma Tessa with bulging eyes.

 Hearing that, Delano felt awkward himself. Surely he did not want to say the part of the room, but already already too.

 “Whatever they say, I absolutely do not believe.” Before anyone answered, Aditya interrupted. “Where is the holy man so?”

 “Again, if it is like that, why is Adelia not sent home,” added the man forties that year.

 “I don't want to go home, Om. Unwilling Adelia,” Delano replied politely.

 “Kan can be forced.” Bella is replying.

 “I'm not someone who likes to force.” Unexpectedly, Delano said that out loud. “If indeed Adelia wants to stay after being advised, that is her decision.”

 “That's important I've given input. Adelia will accept it or not it depends on her. Despite being young, Adelia has a way of determining what she wants. Especially determine his happiness.”

 “So you said Adelia wasn't happy living with her father?” tanya Aditya started to lose control.

 “There must be a reason that makes your daughter not feel at home.” That's all Delano has avenged, but it's enough to make Aditya and Bella look upset.

 Honestly, what Delano said was not wrong either. Maybe not everyone can agree with that. But for Adelia and Oma Tessa, it was very impressive.

 “Oma so curious.” Before the debate resumed, the owner of the event spoke. “Delano school to where? Enter university?”

 “Yes, Oma. I graduated from management.” Delano gave an answer that not everyone expected.

 “If you graduate, why become an office boy?” Oma is of course curious.

 “Although it sounds very cliche and unreasonable, but I also want to feel how difficult it is to work really from zero.”

 “I want to really fight from the bottom and slowly crawl up,” Delano continued which amazed everyone.

 Oma Tessa had even smiled widely and already had a plan in her head. A man with thoughts like Delano is a ledge and he doesn't want to waste such a person.

 “Oma would like to offer you a job.” That statement left many people shocked. “Of course there are terms and conditions, if you want you can ask Adelia to take you to the office of Oma.”

 “Will I consider.” That was the only answer Delano could give and that was enough.

 It's just that, there are things that hamper Om Bayu. The man who was slightly older than Aditya, had since looked at Delano intently. Ever since the office boy introduced himself.

 “What we have met before?” Finally Om Bayu could not help but ask.
