Pursuing the Duplicate Love of My Wife
10. Just reject it

"Lho, Dad, how come Daddy's just going, anyway?!" Robert was seen grumbling in the car. "Kan Robert asked Daddy to declare love! how's Daddy doing, anyway?!" angry angry.

"It's not a big deal, Rob. But you saw the man's face yourself. He doesn't seem to like Daddy." Joe himself does not know what Abi Hamdan has to do with Syifa. But clearly, Joe thinks that he must be a relative.

"I mean Opa? But Opa looks pretty ordinary." Naturally Robert said that, because he himself did not have time to pay attention to Abi Hamdan's face.

"What is usual? The man's face is so sour. Daddy was afraid, it could have been her husband Miss Syifa." Joe turned his head for a moment towards his son, who was sitting next to him.

"He is Abinya Bu Syifa. Kan Daddy had also told Robert that Miss Syifa only had a boyfriend, not married," explained Robert with pursed lips.

"What's that for?" ask Joe wonder.

"Like Daddy."

"meaning?" Both of Joe's eyebrows shot up.

"Kayak Robert Daddy's. So Miss Syifa was Opa's son."

"Oh Abi is the name of the child for his father, huh? But Daddy's new. What language is it?"

"Robert doesn't know." Robert shakes.

"I know it's an identical call to Muslims, Om." Baim who was sitting in the back seat said. "Make a child to his parents. You see, there's a brother Baim who called Abi Umi to Mama and her Papa."

"Oh that's it." Joe mangosteen. "That means you're also Muslim, huh, Im?" tanyanya looked at Baim from the windshield. The boy nodded immediately.

"Yes, Om."

"When will Daddy shoot Miss Syifa this way?" ask Robert who went back to discussing the matter. "Fear of Abinya Bu Syifa? He looks like a good man."

"There will come a time, be patient. Saying that love should not be rushed, Rob, fear of rejection," said Joe gave an understanding. In addition, he must really strengthen his heart to be able to marry again.

"Didn't really? Tell Daddy you don't want to, right? But Miss Syifa looks exactly like Mommy. Robert wants to have a new Mommy, Dad, so he can be hugged when he sleeps." Robert grimaced, his eyeballs looking teary.

"Daddy understands, but Daddy asked for your time. Please understand Daddy, Rob. Getting married is not easy. Daddy must be ready to be born and inner," persuaded Joe gently. Hands outstretched to gently rub the top of her son's hair.

"Request a time when? Is it a year or ten years?" Robert turned his head, his tears were already flowing down his cheeks now. She really misses the figure of a mother. Moreover, Syifa's attitude was so sweet and gentle when teaching her how to count.

"Not until the year. Just a few days, a week or a month. And the point ... Daddy needs to get to know Ms. Syifa, and vice versa."

"But if Miss Syifa is married to someone, Dad?" Robert's face looked gloomy.

"Yes then it means Daddy is the same he is not a match," replied Joe casually.

"How is that mate?" ask Robert.

"It cannot unite. Can't get married."

"Ah, but Robert really wanted to have a new Mommy. Can't stand it." Robert looked sulky, both of his hands smashing his white uniform.

"Patience first, patient people are dear to God, you know," said Joe who again tried to persuade. "Better now you do a lot of praying and get to know Ms. Syifa more closely so that she wants to do it with Daddy. Let Daddy declare love not be rejected. Would you like to be ... if Daddy was rejected?"

"Can't try it yet. Daddy tried to declare love." Robert was already crying, even starting as he pleased. His face looked very sad.

Joe let out his breath violently. Although already given an explanation, in fact the boy still wanted him to quickly express his taste. "Yes already, yes already, next if Daddy meets with Bu Syifa again ... Daddy immediately expressed love to him."

"That's dong. Robert could hear it." Robert immediately gave a smile and wiped the tears on his cheeks, then hugged Joe tightly. "That means tomorrow, yes, but Daddy can't be nervous anymore."

"Ngaret what do you mean?"

"Time loop. Anyway tomorrow on Robert's anterin to school ... Daddy immediately expressed love to Miss Syifa."

"Yes." Yeah." Joe nodded.

"Lho, Bi, where's Robert and Baim?" syifa asked who had just walked out the door, carrying two cups of coffee in her hand. He saw Abinya sitting on a chair on the porch of the house.

"They're home." Abi Hamdan stood up, then grabbed the child's shoulder and invited him into the house.

"They came home and didn't say goodbye to me, did they?" Syifa scowled sadly.

He had made coffee on the orders of Abi Hamdan, so Joe did not have time to see it again before returning home.

The place where the mica of two brownies taste pandanus and chocolate was opened, then Abi Hamdan took a piece of pandanus.

"Bismillah, hopefully halal," he said, bribing into the mouth and chewing slowly.

"Who are you from, Bi?" ask Syifa wonder.

"From Robert's Daddy, he said to Abi" replied Abi Hamdan.

Shortly after, Umi Maryam who came out of her room stepped over. Sit together on a single sofa.

"Well, there is sustenance! Where's Bolu buying, Bi?" ask Umi Maryam while taking a piece of the sponge.

"From Robert's Daddy."

"Oh. Delicious, yes, it tastes. Kayak sponge is expensive," said Umi Maryam while chewing and feeling the softness of the sponge on each bite.

"Oh yes, Fa, Abi wants you to be honest with Abi," asked Abi Hamdan as he looked closely at his son.

“Honest what, Bi?" ask Syifa.

"Do you have feelings for Robert's Daddy?"

Syifa immediately shook her head. "No. People know him too."

"Times, anyway?" abi Hamdan asked with a look of disbelief.

"Seriously, Bi. I've even met him twice."

"Where have you been?" abi Hamdan asked curiously.

"First time I want to go to teach, the second time was."

"That first pass you met on the street?" guess Abi Hamdan.

Syifa nodded. "Yes, not intentionally."

"Where's the story?"

"Eemm .. At that time I accidentally met Brother Beni, and he came to help me."

"Help?!" Abi Hamdan's forehead looked cringing. Before continuing his question, he took a sip of his black coffee first which was on the table. After that said, "It's really right to meet Beni, Beni is disturbing you, until Joe comes nolongin?" That Abi Hamdan knew his son had broken up a long time ago, so he thought so.

"Who's Joe, Bi?"

"The Daddy's Robert. He's called Joe, probably an extension of Jojon."

"Oh, if I'm not mistaken his name is Jonathan. And about Kak Beni actually he did not mean to disturb, it's just fitting to meet him said he did not want to break up with me. So we had a fight."

"Oh, but you're the same he didn't turn it back, right? Just be careful that Abi sees you and Beni are still in a relationship!" threaten Abi Hamdan while glaring, then go back to devouring sponge.

"No, Bi. My relationship with Beni is over" he replied in earnest.

"Good enough." Abi Hamdan sighed with relief. "Oh yes, Abi pay attention .. It seems that Mr. Joe likes you, Fa."

"Then anyway? Abi said who?" ask Syifa not to believe it.

"Nobody said. But Abi had heard Robert say that Mr. Joe would declare love to you."

Syifa suddenly rounded her eyes, feeling shocked and again in disbelief. "What time, Bi? Ah lied kali. That's all Robert's pengen."

"How's the hell?"

"From the beginning he went to school and met me. .. He asked me to be his new Mommy, but I refused, '" Syifa said honestly.

"Kok can the hell he say to you to be his Mommy? He said you and he just met?" Abi Hamdan looked astonished.

"That's what makes me confused." Syifa scratched her hair behind the hijab. "But he had said that the reason was because my face resembled Mommy before."

"Where did her old mom go?"

"I don't know, Bi." Syifa.

"Abi ask ... tomorrow-tomorrow if you meet with Mr. Joe, try to keep your distance and view, yes! And if for example he declares love to you, you immediately reject it," asked Abi Hamdan while holding the child's hand.

...Do not directly reject dong, Bi, pity 🥲...
