Passion of a Broken Man
He's my Bladder Child
Mommy Lusi finished calling Marvin. The wall clock is 16:05WIB. She was accompanied by her husband sitting at the dinner table.
David came home early from the office. He got a call from his wife informing him that Adikara's family will be visiting tonight.
"Well, why do you have such an unpleasant feeling about them wanting to raise Ica as a child." Said Mother Lusi.
"That's how Mother feels." Answer Mr. David.
"Yes sir, maybe because we already think of Ica as our child." Said Mother Lusi later.
"What did Marvin say to Bun?" Ask Mr. David.
"They're going home this afternoon Dad." Answer Mother Lusi.
"Whoa then, Mother rest first." Said Mr. David.
"Yes Well." Answer Mother Lusi.
Mother Lusi left her husband for her room on the second floor. He will lay his body down for a moment. Waiting for their children to come home.
Mr. David headed to the back garden. He wants to enjoy the fresh air, even in the midst of problems that are happening to him.

Ica still lingered on cleaning herself. He did not know that his future parents-in-law asked them to come home soon.
"Darling, it's done." Marvin asked knocking on Ica's room door.
There is no answer from within. Only the sound of water was heard. Not long after that Ica came out of the bathroom. He heard Marvin knock on the door.
"What's the Bang?" Ask Ica.
"It's so sweet of you." Goda Marvin's.
"Thank you dear. Is your brother neat?" Ask Ica.
"Darling, we're going home now. My sister's family is coming tonight, they want to see you." Obviously Marvin.
"Yes Bang, Ica clean up the room first." Ica says.
"Abang wait below, you want to heat the car for a while. And prepare the things that you want to bring." Marvin.
"Yes Bang." answered Ica.
Marvin down the stairs. He will prepare everything he wants to bring home.
Ica, who had finished cleaning her room, brought a small suitcase to Marvin.
"What is it." Ica says.
"Try to find Bi Surti in the back, we'll say goodbye." Marvin.
Ica turns the body looking for the person in question. Bi Murti was planting spices and flowers in the back. Ica approached Bi Murti.
"Bi, called by Bang Marvin. We're planning on going home." Ica says.
"It's such a rush, it's not like Den Marvin said it's still tonight." Bi Murti.
"Yes Bi, because there's a friend of Dad's going to the house around 19:00WIB." Answer the Ica explains.
Bi Murti and Ica had already arrived at the living room. Mang Tardi prepared some duren fruit and wrapped their fishing results last afternoon.
Not how long all ready. Marvin and Ica say goodbye to coming home soon.
"Damn, Bi... Thank you for hosting us and receiving us well. We'll go home first." Marvin.
"Ah... Den Marvin, this is Den Marvin's villa." Mang Tardi.
"Yes Mang, thank you very much." Marvin.
" The Same Den." Answer Mang Tardi.
Bi Murti hugged Ica as if he did not want to escape. Both parents used to have a daughter. He died of DHF about eight years ago.
"Bi no cry, tomorrow-tomorrow if Ica no lecture we come again." The word Ica calmed Bi Murti down.
"Yes Neng, be careful on the road." Bi Murti.
Marvin shakes hands with Mang Tardi and Bi Murti. When shaking hands with Bi Murti, he gave several pieces of red money.
"Den, no need." Reject Bi Murti.
"Nothing Bi, to buy vegetables." Marvin.
"The salary given by Mr. David is more than enough Nak Marvin. Who are you going to be saving for?" Bi Murti said shedding tears.
"It's okay Bi. Rejeki is not good if rejected." Ica stroked Bi Murti's shoulder.
"Yes Den, thank you." Bi Murti finally received Marvin's handout.
"We say yes Bi, Mang." Ica says.
Marvin's in the car. While Ica was restrained by Bi Murti. Bi Murti ran to his room like he was going to pick up something. He had been near Ica by the side of the car for less than two minutes.
"This is my son, a gift from my Aunt." Bi Murti.
A gold bracelet was given by Bi Murti. The middle-aged woman was seen enduring deep sadness. Ica accepted Bi Murti's gift with awe.
"Thank you Bi, next time Ica comes here again." Said Ica involuntarily shedding tears.
"Yes, thank you." Said Bi Murti waving a hand.
Marvin drove his car slowly. Ica still looking towards the back of the car, Mang Tardi hugged his crying wife.
"It's okay they're bang." Ica says.
"Dear, if their daughter is still alive. Probably as big as you, two years below you at most." Marvin explained.
"It looks like real gold is expensive. But why give it the same Ica?" Said Ica astonished.
"Dear, that's real gold. Bi Murti nitip money about fifteen million to Mother the results of open piggy bank. Bi Murti wanted to buy her daughter jewelry for her birthday a month later. But his daughter died a week after Mother delivered the jewelry." Obviously Marvin.
"It's so hot Bang." Ica replied still looking at Bi Murti's bracelet.
"Yes, that's the necklace Bi Murti wears." Marvin.
"But why is this expensive item given to Ica, Bang?" Ica says.
"Because you deserve it baby, nice and beautiful?" Marvin Sam bil pinched Ica's cheek.
"Her...." Ica Mummings.
"If the Arbeni were to deliver expensive goods. Don't say that." Marvin was getting jealous.
"Darling, how did the conversation get there?" Ask Ica.
"Honey anyway, if the loving Bi Murti feels inappropriate. If it's Beni who's a casual love, 'Maybe a gift bang.' It's not logic." Marvin started his jealousy.
"Yes, I'm sorry Bang." Ica said a kiss on the corner of Marvin's lips.
"Remember ya don't flirt in front of Arbeni and his family later. If you don't want to help Dad. Where would I meet with Adikara's child snobbery that." Marvin Umpat.
"Dear, Ica loves only one Mr. Marvinno." Ica hugged Marvin from the side.
"Review, hit people later." Marvin.
In his heart Marvin was very pleased with Ica's statement. But his ego hides the feelings of his love slave towards Ica.
Marvin kept driving his car. Ica who finished he snapped looks asleep and still holding the bracelet given Bi Murti earlier. There was a feeling of guilt in Marvin's heart.
************
In the living room already seen the Adikara family, Mr. Hendro, Lady Diana and their son Arbeni Adikara. They carry papers that must be signed in the cooperation agreement.
Marvin parked his car behind Mr. Adikara's car. It immediately woke up Ica. His bracelet was placed Marvin in Ica's right hand while he slept.
"Good night." Say hello to Marvin because you have seen a guest car parked in the yard.
"Good Night." Answer most of them.
Marvin greeted his guests one by one and his Mother's father. Ica followed from behind. Marvin who was already sitting on the sofa glanced as Ica shook hands with Beni. Ica sat next to Mother Lusi.
Unbeknownst to them Lady Diana continued to notice Ica who was looking down. He felt shaky when he saw this child, but it was only the first time. "Had Beni fought so much for this boy, I would have done the same thing after meeting him." Lady Diana said inwardly.
"Sir and Madam Adikara thank you for visiting our residence." Mr. David said he was starting a serious conversation.
"We are also very grateful that we have been welcomed by Mr. Wiraarga's family here" said Mr. Hendro.
"As for our arrival, it was because my wife wanted to meet in person with Ica." Kat Pak Hendro's.
"Master and Lady need to know, Ica this is our adopted son and Marvin's fiancee our son." Mother Lusi said.
"I understand Jeng, Beni is also not interested in taking Ica from Jeng's son. Like...." Lady Diana said Hotly.
"Mama, stop. We came for Ica, right?" Beni said.
"Son Ica, sorry I just saw Nak Ica wearing a necklace. Can I see?" Said Lady Diana.
"Oh, Yes. It's Madam." Ica said while taking off her necklace.
"Don't call Madam darling, call Mama dong." Arbeni.
Marvin who was furious held back his anger. "Try if it wasn't for Dad needing money from this goddamn family, I would've found him in the head." Marvin said in his heart.
Lady Diana received a silver necklace with a pendant shaped love. His face turned pale with care He opened the locket. Inside the pendant was the inscription 'Adr'.
"Adr Pa, he's our son." Lady Diana hugged Ica very tightly.
All of them were shocked, a very ferocious Lady Diana when in her office. Suddenly descending to the floor hugged Ica while crying.
