Not returning to the house that used to be occupied deliberately I contracted elsewhere that would not be found by Mr. Devan or Aditya mas. As much as possible I would stay away from the two of them, not wanting to deal with them again.
I want to focus on Ara, raising her without interference from anyone.
It is not easy for Ara to forget Mr. Devan considering the closeness of the two of them and also the affection he has always given to Ara. But, in any way Ara should be able to forget Mr. Devan.
After getting the keys from the owner of the contract I took Ara into a simple house that was smaller than my old house. It won't be a problem for me because only the two of us are left so it will be enough.
Just now the foot wanted to step up to open the door Ara pulled my hand and held back from continuing the course of what she was doing made me stop and immediately turned towards her.
"Mother, whose house are we here for? He said he wanted to meet Aunt Mika?" the question turns out to remember the previous purpose.
"Where's Aunt Mika, Mother? This isn't Aunt Mika's house either?" added again.
I know Ara is not a child who forgets easily so she will remember Mika's real home.
"Baby, this is our home now. From now on we will stay in this house. Just the two of us" I said very gently.
"Keep father om?" looks like Ara really wants that Mr. Devan will also stay with us but that certainly will not be possible.
"No, father om won't stay with us," my head shook increasingly reassuringly that it would be like that.
I've been squatting in front of Ara giving her understanding. Hopefully it won't be hard.
"Why, Mother. Why do we stay here why not with dad. Does she not love Ara anymore?" he said with a face that immediately turned sad.
How can I explain that we shouldn't be living together anymore. It was not even appropriate from yesterday until now.
"Mother, answer! Why would you not want to stay with Ara anymore," Ara's eyes were already teary with whimper from her question.
"Mother let's go back to dad's house om, dad will definitely be sad because we're leaving. Come mother," his whining is becoming.
"Darling, we can't go back to Dad's house anymore. That house is not our home so we can't stay there anymore. And here is our home now. Ara nurut ya mama, Ara love the same mother," I said.
It may seem pushy but it has to be like this. Ara can't always depend on Mr. Devan or anyone else. Can't do.
"No way, Ara wants to be the same father, om" Ara still whining even now was crying.
"Can't be darling. Now we have to stay here. Ara nurut ya same mother," persuaded_ku.
"But, Mother."
Ara was such a submissive child it would definitely not be hard to persuade her and it seemed to be true. Ara can easily melt with my request.
"Same mother yes, from now on we live here. Look in front of it, it's school tomorrow Ara will be attending there."
My hands show the school that has been deserted of its inhabitants. It must have been quiet because it was noon and everyone must have gone home.
Ara turned to look at the school to see all the rides that were available. His face seemed to change with a cheerful twinkle when he saw it.
"Ara can go to school there tomorrow, Mother! Will Ara have any friends?" ask her so enthusiastically.
"Yes, Ara is going to school there. So now we're staying here so Ara can be close to school."
"The tiger!" Ara already really wants to be able to go to school surely she will be very happy because this new house in front of her is a kindergarten school.

I saw that Ara was still silent when she was alone and when I left her to clean up all the stuff we also cleaned up all the kitchen supplies after dinner.
Sure, he felt lonely because there would usually be a lot of people playing with him when he was at Mr. Devan's house, but now?
I approached with milk for her and Ara was still sitting in the window seat and looking out, looking at the rides at the school that now only had dim lights to light her up.
"Honey, drink the milk and then we bobok yuk. It's night, you know," I'm sitting on the bench next to him with my hands still holding the glass.
Ara was still silent, it seemed like she was daydreaming to the point of not hearing my call. I know, she must be very sad.
"Ara darling. You why?" ask me so gently.
"Mother, Ara kangen same father om. How is it now, Mother, is she not looking for Ara? doesn't he miss Ara?"
Obviously this is what he'll think. He would think more about Mr. Devan than he would think of his own biological father right now.
I also don't know why Ara became afraid of Aditya and never once asked again about him, could it be because of his dream at that time?
But, actually what dreams Ara until she is so afraid of Aditya mas. I was very curious but did not want to ask for fear that Ara would get sadder.
"If father om looking will definitely meet mother already give her address the same father om. Maybe now he is busy working so he can not find Ara," I replied reasoned.
"Why do adults always work. They work but end up forgetting Ara and being more affectionate about her work. Dad left because of work and now dad om also did not see Ara because he was busy working. Will you also leave Ara alone later?"
"Mother will probably work, but mother will never leave let alone forget about Ara. Aren't you always there for Ara?"
Ara nodded and now approached me.
"Mother, don't ever leave Ara alone huh," Ara hugged me tightly making the milk glass I was holding almost spilled milk in it.
"Wouldn't love, mother would never leave Ara. Ara don't worry."
"Now drink the milk and soon it boils. Doesn't Ara want to go to school tomorrow?"
Hearing me mention the name of the school Ara cheerfully returned she immediately let go of the hug and took the milk from my hand.
I saw how he drank up to the toilet, like he was so happy just because of school. I'm sure Ara will stay here even if it takes time.
"Mother, the milk is over let's go. Afraid of tomorrow's misfortune," I smiled happily at his cheerfulness like this. This is all I need and I will try to always be like this.
It was only Ara who became the strength for my life and I did not want this power of mine to wither and lose the smile of her spirit.
Maybe he will be sad often to remember Mr. Devan but I am sure as time goes by he will get used to it without him and will soon forget. Likewise with me who must forget everything, forget Aditya mas also forget Mr. Devan.
I put the glass on the table and I left it there. I carried Ara and I took her to a room that would be a resting place for both of us.
There were indeed two rooms in this house but for this time I wanted to sleep with Ara and accompany her. I don't want him to feel lonely.
"Mother, sing Nina's song bobok ya," she asked.
"Yes" I laid my body on the bed, and I also went to lie next to him. I pulled out a blanket to warm both of us and rubbed Ara's forehead slowly.
Lips began to open and began to sing the song that Ara wanted. Lullaby.
"Nina bobok oh Nina bobok... If it doesn't get stuck in a mosquito bite..."
It didn't take long for Ara to go to sleep after hearing me sing Nina's song for her. Not until five minutes Ara was asleep and picked up a dream.
"Ara's beautiful dream is unfortunately mother," I kissed her forehead very slowly.
Not like Ara who is very easy to sleep but me? I find it hard to close my eyes. Why is it so hard like this?
The night felt so quiet and quiet as if there was no more human life around it only a few animals that were still awake and singing accompanied the night.
I grabbed the phone I had just turned off. I deliberately didn't turn on because I knew for sure Mr. Devan would keep calling.
I opened it and it turned out to be true, one by one the messages came in so many. And also the notification of incoming calls is also not less numerous and all just from Mr. Devan alone, that means Mr. Devan has not met Mika.
'Nay, where are you. Where you go with Ara.'
'Nay, reply to my message.'
'Nay, I'm sorry if I'm guilty. Please come back!'
'Nay, or tell you where, I'll pick you up. Nay!'
So many messages came in from Mr. Devan and that was only part of it.
Cring... Cring... Cring....
Until finally the call came in right after I turned on the phone, obviously Mr. Devan knew that I was active and opened also read the message one by one.
I ignored his call there was no intention to pick him up.
Ting...
'Nay, I beg you. Raise my call.'
Until finally the message that entered after the call I did not lift.
Cring... Cring... Cring...
Mr. Devan called back but I ignored him anyway. Until I decided to return the message only once.
'[Don't call me again, and forget everything that's happened. Let's just say we never met like before.]'
I saw the black two ticks instantly turn blue sir Devan immediately read it. I saw Mr. Devan was typing but not until the message was sent back the phone was back I turned it off.
"I'm sorry Nayla, sir. But it's enough up here to meet us," I murmured.
