She's Not a Widow
DBJ 77'S. Promise Father

*********

Lusi fell asleep after a workout with Delano. While Delano went to his children's room to ask the cause of their quarrel. He suspected that it was just his son's wits.

Delano walked into their room, after knocking on the door. Devan and Davin looked back at the fish that Delano had just bought.

"How do guys, you like it?" delano asked as he ruffled the hair of the two boys.

"Of course dad, this is really cool." Devan murmured, while Davin looked indifferent and engrossed in staring at the moving fish.

"Guys, there's something I want to ask you. This happened at school this afternoon. Can you explain why you're fighting?"

Davin blinked many times, then turned his head towards the very father. While Devan lowered his head in fear because he did not want to mispronounce.

"We just want you to come, so you can pick us up from school and take us to the zoo" Davin replied.

"But do you have to lie and make you anxious?" Davin shook his head as well as Devan. They don't think they're getting there.

"No dad."

"Is that your only excuse?"

"Devan nodded but Davin was silent for a moment, then he looked into Delano's eyes wistfully. " Dad ... if you hurt your mother, we'll take you away and we'd better never meet. My brother and I are fine if they don't have a father. But for us, mother is everything. Although we're happy to have a father but if you're not happy, it's better we don't have one." Davin said everything in his heart with teary eyes. Delano smiled gently and hugged his two sons.

"Dad promised, you will never hurt your mother until any time and you will not let your mother grieve."

Delano rubbed the backs of Davin and Devan. The two boys hugged Delano's neck as if they were hanging all of his trust in the father to protect their most cherished mother.

"Now, let's change your clothes and get some rest. Mommy has also been sleeping because of exhaustion" said Delano bringing Devan and Davin to walk in closet. They have changed into casual clothes. Delano lay in the middle of Devan and Davin. Both of his sons hugged his arms.

"Dad, what day will we have a sister?" ask Devan.

"Isn't there already me, brother?" Davin seemed to dislike Devan's question.

"I mean like Gabriel. She has a very beautiful sister. I want a sister." Devan's eyes sparkled when talking about his friend's sister.

"Oh, I also want a little sister. So I can tease her at any moment." Davin chuckled, while Delano smiled at the words of his two sons.

"We just pray. Hopefully your little sister will soon be present in the belly of the mother" said Delano later. He remembered that Luci had not wanted to tell anything about his current pregnancy to his two children. So as husband Delano must support whatever decision of Susi for the good and health of Susi as well.

Soon both of his sons were asleep. Delano slowly took off his two sons hands and woke up. He wanted to contact Regan to ask about the results of the meeting this afternoon.

A moment Delano waited for his call to be connected, before Regan's voice was heard greeting annoyed.

"Why did you just contact me, sir?"

"Why indeed?"

"I'm canceling this partnership. Although the value of cooperation is quite satisfactory but the price to be paid is the integrity of your household." Regan explained with still very emotional. How not? if from his client intend to establish cooperation because he wants to match his daughter with Delano. Of course as a cousin of Delano's wife, Regan was very unhappy with the terms they proposed.

Delano who heard Regan's explanation just smiled. For him, the cooperation is only as a means of developing his company. Even if they are without cooperation, Delano will not necessarily fall into poverty because he also has several exclusive contracts with other developing countries.

After speaking for a while Delano went to the room, he sat on the edge of the bed and stroked the pale face of Lusi. Her lips covered the smile as Lusi squirmed and opened her eyes.

"Don't you rest?" asked Lusi in a hoarse voice. He tried to get up and Delano helped him. Delano took a glass of water over the nightstand and gave it to Luci. Lusi smiled and drank the water up to the toilet.

"I'm new from the kids' room."

"Do you want to eat something?" Delano tidied up Luci's messy hair. Lusi nodded. He did wake up because his stomach was hungry to fill.

"What do you want to eat?" Lusi seemed to think, her lips pursed adorable to make Delano can not stand it and kissed it.

"Just think, don't tease that."

"Who is flirting anyway?" Lusi pursed his lips again.

"That's, your lips from earlier teased mas continue."

"Huh, it must be just raus²an mas aja. You pervert."

"Just say, what do you want to eat?"

"I want to eat siomay mas." the look on Lusi's face sparkled as he imagined the process with the peanut seasoning going into his mouth. I don't think he can take it anymore.

"I'll order his siomay but now you wash your face first."

Lusi really likes Delano's gentle and affectionate attitude, as if the man's attitude is able to fill the empty space in the heart of Lusi who used to thirst for affection from his father. And now as a husband, Delano also devoted all his attention to Lusi.

Lusi's order arrived 45 minutes later. During the wait she had already finished a glass of pregnant milk and 2 pieces of cheese-given meat sandwiches. But once his siomay arrived, Lusi was already really impatient waiting.

"Sari, hurry. I'm hungry." Lusi asked a waiter who was his age to quickly move siomay to his plate. Diana came out of the room and approached Lusi in the dining room.

"Well, what's the meal, baby?" diana asked as she took a glass of warm water for herself.

"Siomay mah, mama want to?" tawar Lusi's. Diana just shook her head.

"How about mah?"

"Your mother is much better. He can already accept the departure of your grandmother. Mama also hopes you don't feel too much sadness." Diana was a gentle woman just like Mitha, so Lusi was comfortable with her.

"Yes ma" replied Lusi.

Delano came down with his two sons on the right and left side carefully.

"It looks like I want to renovate the house anyway, we need an elevator" Delano said upon arrival in the dining room. It is not easy to carry his two sons let alone they continue to joke when they are in his arms. Luci thrust his glass filled with water and Delano immediately gulped it down.

"hahahaha, I'm tired of carrying us sister." Davin mocked his father. Devan smiled as he struggled in Lusi's arms.
