1.s. Family Problems (2)

‶ (Have you ever been on vacation? Alone. For me, child-centered is number one but do not forget to make yourself happy. How can a child be happy if his parents are not? ⁇

In theory it is as easy as saying, but so practiced. Avisa also has difficulties. ‶ It's hard, but all your efforts won't be in vain, Elliot. Believe this. You don't have to worry too much. ⁇

Indeed for earthlings have the ability to produce offspring by relying on advanced technology. Call it cloning, baby tubes, or whatever it's called. The bentala did not really understand all that.

But in essence, all of that is the way taken by someone if you want to have offspring without having to go through marriage. (Although it all applies only to earthmen, and not celestial beings like him.)

As long as he talks with this beautiful virgin who is his superior, Neptune— maybe from here we will use his human name, Elliot, noting that Avisa also suffered the same fatigue. There may be some things going on between Avisa and the child. That's how he caught.

"Well, if you're really on vacation, it's like you've never been. Considering most of my holiday events are in order to work. To collect essays and photographs of course." Elliot passed the exhalation back.

Come to think of it, Elliot was a workaholic. Visiting so many countries and places with a view pampering the eyes was solely for the sake of his work as an essayist and photographer. Never really a vacation.

"But after listening to the Madam's words, maybe I'll rethink my vacation." Elliot would leave his job for a while and have a real good time.

"Then, has the Madam been said to be too over-loving in the Madam's child by the Madam's own child? I mean, whether in action or perhaps in words?" back Elliot asked Avisa .

When Elliot finally made up his mind, Avisa's head only nodded. Agreeing on what has been the man's choice. The edge of his lips was washed; his back was leaned against the back side of the chair and he enjoyed a cup of tea. It's a little cold because it's not been touched for a long time.

‶ Hmm, I always felt that way. Too indulgent and fulfill whatever the child wishes. Sometimes I need to put some distance. Give him up to have his own space, while I busy time through work. pause was taken for a while, then Avisa continued. ‶ Have you sure it's okay, Elliot? I mean, if you feel restless too ─── it's good to immediately consult a more expert. For each parent, the method is always different. ⁇

Avisa started to worry about this employee. Beyond a doubt, Elliot who is usually friendly and cheerful bright turns out to save the problem in such a strange way. Avisa was worried.

"I don't know if my choice is right" there is a gap between the strung syllables, because the buana has to swallow the food in its grasp as soon as possible. After it ran out, then Elliot continued the conversation again.

"In fact when I put some distance between me and my children, they were suddenly strangers to each other. Either I give them too long distance, or the surrounding conditions that make them so."

One sip of bottled drink is enough to make room for him to breathe for a moment. It seemed that the wrinkles on his forehead were increasing. Tired? For sure. But not because it takes care of his children, but thinking why the distance between himself and his children so far?

Did Elliot make a mistake? Did he take his kids off too much? Lolosan exhalation is heard again.

"It looks like I'll consider consulting later. Too soft like this makes me feel far away from them." he told Avisa, which sounded like a complaint.

‶ HARI Hu um. It is better to consult an expert. ⁇ Hand folded over stomach while looking at Elliot. ‶ Do you ever ask them directly? Why do they feel so far away? Or ask what they are feeling? I think communication in any kind of relationship is very important. Rather than just guessing and then sinking into his own mind. And what you're thinking isn't necessarily true either. looks like Evangeline is starting to feel anxious.

Rungu Elliot listened to this pedusiastic speech that was his superior carefully. Look closely at the syllable for the sake of the syllable and make him reflexively pull the fabric of the trousers that Elliot wears. Biting his lower lip for a moment as if he was thinking hard about the question thrown by the interlokutor.

Ask them. The syllable strand was not never thrown at his children Elliot. But—

"I never asked them, Madame." Elliot finally opened his voice after being silent for a while. "They hide things more often and say nothing. Even if I stress that I am their parent and I deserve to know what they want or think."

Honestly, sometimes Elliot's scared. Will he be the same as his wife? But—

"I will try to sit them all back and talk slowly. Hopefully this time it works." Elliot passed the exhalation at the end of his sentence.

Avisa looked satisfied at the answer given by the lanang. It is true that Elliot's problem is quite complicated, but the determination of his employees cannot be underestimated. The figure that was so strong behind his meekness caused admiration in the mind of the Evangeline.

The End of Flashback

The memories simply stopped without any continuation and Elliot wiped the sweat. One memory he managed to save from the curse that constantly gnawed at his memory.

Netraya looked anxiously at the container that was the container of his memory. How long should he do this? Elliot was worried that if this thing was damaged, what was the fate of his memory?

His journey in Mayapada is still far away. In harmony with the life of the earth that is still far away. Maybe Elliot has to do this forever, until the time for him is over or maybe when the curse is gone.

I don't know when that will come. Elliot could only wait and continue waiting.
