Inevitably, Farida finally invited his guests to eat because lunch time had passed since then and most likely both would have been hungry.
"Please sit down, but I'm sorry there's only this food because it tastes like this" Farida said.
At the table there is only vegetable spinach sauce, fried tempeh, omelet and sambal, Farida also brought crackers from the kitchen.
"I don't know if you like it or not?"
"I used to eat this at Grandma's, didn't I, Dad?" Emperor nodded. His mother loved simple food.
"Eh, I forgot to say you guys brought food too. I'll see it," said Dara to take what they had brought.
"No, I just want this" said Alisa. "I'm tired of chicken constantly."
"Maybe your father would," continued Farida walking out picking up the parcel in the living room. He returned when he saw Alisa already sitting on the dining chair with a plate of rice that had been given vegetables by the Emperor.
"We will eat this only" said the Emperor.
"That's no better than this teriyaki chicken." Farida brought a box of Japanese food.
"We're tired of food like that." The emperor took his own food. "I'm sorry I took your food before you gave it up."
Farida smile.
"Aren't you going to eat with us?" ask Emperor.
"I ate it already." Farida sees Alisa having trouble scooping her own food. He walked up and sat down next to the girl.
"Let Aunt help," he said, feeding Alisa patiently.
The emperor glanced at him happily. This was exactly what he had expected from the past. A warm family. However, Cantika was always busy with her work even though she could not blame the woman. Cantika is the backbone of his family. So he had to inherit his father's company.
"How old are you, Ida?"
"Not even twenty-four yet" Farida replied quickly. After which he was stunned for a moment, speechless.
The Emperor recalled the resume about Farida that he had read. Farida should have been twenty-eight, why twenty-four.
"It's still very young. If you look at the accident I had then you were eighteen, seventeen. Wait, why do I have to date a young woman?"
"I told you that woman wasn't me! You have no proof that it's me" Farida said calmly.
"So Auntie was Dad's girlfriend?" ask Alisa.
Farida and the Emperor looked at each other.
"No, your father was wrong. His brain is in trouble." Farida pointed to her own head.
"Oh."
"This spinach squirt is fresh, it's just too salty a little, I like it a little sweet." The emperor tried to distract.
"I think our tastes are different."
"You can learn to unite our tastes later," continued the Emperor casually. I don't know why she really likes to see Farida's upset face.
"Sir, there's your daughter here. Can you control your speech."
"Father and Mother want to separate," said Alisa with teary eyes.
Farida stretched both her hands towards the Emperor while shaking her head. He then carried Alisa and took her to the family sofa opposite the dining table.
"What parents let their children hear your quarrel. Selfish."
Alisa is held by Farida. "If you want to cry just cry, don't be held back."
"Say, a strong child's mother cannot cry. If I like to cry, you won't like me" said Alisa, claustrophobic.
The atmosphere became haru for a moment. Farida hugged Alisa and put her in her arms.
"If you don't cry then your chest will feel tight and it hurts a lot. Trust me, I know what it's like. Therefore, if you want to cry cry loudly so that everyone knows what you are feeling. Tell me what Alisa wants. Don't be afraid."
Farida herself was very upset at Cantika. The woman remained unchanged, even to her own son still being tough. I don't know what his heart is made of. He only thinks about himself. Now after all he has is he happy? Farida does not.
"Now tell me how you feel everything. Your father will listen."
"Will you be angry and hate me if I say it?" alisa asked looking fearfully at the Emperor.
Farida looked with an accusatory look at the Emperor. "I've always tried to be a good father to him. Never scolded her."
Farida closed her eyes for a moment. " I don't know what doctrine Cantika gave Alisa so scared this kid expressed his feelings!"
"You heard your father wouldn't scold you or hate you."
"You know Father loves you very much" continued the Emperor.
Alisa nodded.
"A-I ha-just want Daddy and Mom like the others. Accompany me play, laugh, be happy...."
"Even because of your mother's selfishness, Maulana is living without her father now" Farida said.
Perhaps this is God's reply to what has happened the Cantika household is indeed unhappy without him being damaged. He just needs to snatch Alisa from Cantika for the next step.
"You can't force something you want on someone else." The emperor was stunned to hear Farida's words.
"However, you can find your own happiness. If your mom and dad aren't perfect parents then you should be strong. There are still many other children who do not have a father and mother, and live on the side of the road, without a home. And you have everything. If you're sad about not having a playmate, you have a grandmother and grandpa who love you. If you're tired of going to their house and taking them with you."
Alisa's innocent eyes looked at Farida without blinking. "We should be grateful for what is in life. Grateful Alisa has a father and mother, still able to see them even for a moment. Grateful Alisa has a big and nice house, has lots of toys and has a servant aunt uncle who would want to accompany Alisa to play."
"If you want to have a playmate, there are also playmates at school, right?"
"They're naughty, Auntie, Maulana also often teased me," Alisa honestly stared fearfully at Farida. Farida then laughed.
"He just likes to see you cry, if you don't cry then he'll be tired himself. But tomorrow Aunt will tell Maulana not to be naughty with you anymore. Sometimes that kid is annoying and annoying."
"Yes, he dyed my paper, he said it was the wrong color. I don't like it. He also likes to give vegetables to my food container, vegetables that I don't like. She ...."
"Hush.., Maulana just wants to teach you about things she likes not naughty."
"But I don't like it. He also likes to pull my hair," continued Alisa.
"Yes, yes, Auntie will be angry with her for being naughty to you."
Farida placed both of her palms on Alisa's cheeks.
"Now the pretty boy is not sad anymore, is he? Your father has heard everything you want. Aunty think he'll change, don't you think, Mr Emperor?"
Alisa looked towards the Emperor.
"Humm" answered the Emperor.
"Now it's almost afternoon, you go home. Your mother must have been looking for you" Farida said.
"Mom hasn't come home from work, she's coming home tonight" Alisa explained.
"Just you have to go home, take a shower, get changed and rest" Farida continued.
"What Aunt Farida said is true, dear. We're going home now."
"We're not going to look at Maulana, Dad?"
"Don't Aunt already explain if Maulana's in her own house."
Ohhachi!
There was a sound of people sneezing from upstairs. The voice of a child.
"That's like Maulana sneezing, Auntie?"
Farida's face panicked instantly. The Emperor's own sharp eyes looked upwards.
