Socialites
Dirga finally knew, though,

The small party organized by Sudiro's company finally ended. During that time Dirga was only pensive after hearing the shocking statement from the owner of this company. In fact, the sweet-talking young man did not know what the content of the festive event was. Various preconceptions came to his mind to break the puzzle of a relationship spoken by Sudiro.

"Ga, you don't want to eat?" ask Dirga's friend who sits at a table with her, "I noticed that you've been quiet with a blank look? Is there a problem?" ask her again.

"Ah yes. Later I will take food, it is still in line," replied Dirga while pointing to where various kinds of dishes are available, "you go first," said Dirga with a sweet smile.

A few minutes later, the party was over. But Dirga did not move from his place. In fact, he did not take food or enjoy other dishes.

"Mas Dirga was called to face the father there," said Sudiro's personal assistant as he approached Dirga.

Dirga turned his eyes towards the direction intended by the man. Seen there Sudiro was developing a smile on him. Perhaps this is a good time to talk to a man who recognizes himself as a child. Dirga immediately moved from his place to where Sudiro was.

"Sir" said Dirga after he got there.

Sudiro moved from his place with a gaze that could not be separated from Dirga. The middle-aged man looked at Dirga with a burning feeling in his chest until tears welled up in his eyes. He observed the sweet face that was before him for a while. Dive into the clear well of the twenty-six-year-old.

"My son," muttered Sudiro in a trembling voice. He did not expect it after decades of finally meeting destiny with his flesh and blood. Without asking for permission, Sudiro hugged Dirga just like that.

Of course this situation makes Dirga more confused. He closed his eyes when he felt a gentle swipe from Sudiro on his back. There was a warmth that he had long longed to soak into the heart.

"Sorry, Sir. I don't understand any of this. Why do you think of me as your son?" dirga asked after Sudiro let go of the warm embrace.

"Has your mother not spoken to you?" Instead of answering, Sudiro asked back.

Dirga only shook his head after hearing the question because Astuti did not discuss anything with him, "did you know my mother? What should I talk to my mom about my dad?" ask Dirga. He was getting confused about this condition.

"This astuti's absolute shame," muttered Sudiro while clucking in annoyance.

"Do you know my mother?" dirga asked after hearing Sudiro mention his mother's name.

"certain. I know your mother very well," Sudiro replied with a view that could not be separated from Dirga, "we even had the same taste until you were in our lives," said Sudiro with a faint smile as he said that.

"My mother and I were married and from that marriage, you were present as a complement. There's a big incident where your mom has to go by taking you. Not because I cheated, but because of the blessing of your grandmother," Sudiro explained without turning his gaze away from Dirga.

Of course Dirga was even more shocked after hearing that explanation. He shook his head softly in disbelief at the story told by Sudiro, "no. Surely you lied. If that's the case why mom never told me. Not even my father has ever touched on this." Dirga has not been able to accept the reality told by Sudiro.

The middle-aged man only sighed after hearing the rejection from Dirga, "yes already then let's go see your mother. We'll solve this mistake together" Sudiro asked, patting Dirga on the shoulder. This is the right solution to open a long-buried blood relationship.

****

Silence is felt in the living room that is not how wide in a simple house in a dead-end alley. The three people in the room were immersed in their thoughts after the long confession Astuti revealed. Moreover, Dirga, the twenty-six-year-old young man only lowered his head after hearing the long story told by his mother. Various feelings blend in the chest so that he is unable to express his feelings which.

"Dad won't force you to accept this reality, son. One thing is certain, a blood relationship cannot be denied. No matter how hard you run from reality, we still have a blood relationship" Sudiro said as he patted Dirga's thigh, "father apologizes for not finding you for decades. You can hate that you can still accept the fact that I am your father. Don't ever blame your mother for keeping this a secret. She is a great woman because she raised you up to this point" Sudiro explained with a soothing speech.

Unknowingly the tears that had been trying to be held back, finally flowed because of the feeling of haru. Yes, Dirga was powerless to hold back her tears because of the feeling that blended into one on the chest. He wanted to be angry but did not know who to be angry with. One thing is certain, Dirga is sure if his mother does not lie this time. He straightened his head after wiping away the tears that had soaked his cheeks.

"Then if this is the reality, what do you want from this relationship? Don't you have a family?" dirga asked after adjusting her hunting breath.

"Of course Dad will be responsible for your life, even though we cannot be united into a full family. You can come to your father's house to get to know your sisters and your extended mother. They already know all this and hope you come and blend in with them." explained Sudiro while looking at Dirga.

"Does that mean I have to live there?" ask Dirga again.

"That's up to you. If you want to stay there please. But I can't take your mother to live there." Sudiro looked at Dirga meaningfully.

"I won't stay there, let alone leave my mother." Dirga confirmed what was on his mind.

"alright. I'm not gonna force you into that. But do not refuse any gifts from Dad, including if after this Dad will come to your lover's house," said Sudiro with hopeful eyes.

"Mother who told your father about this, because this is all I can do so that you can live happily with Bea," Astuti said when he saw his son was surprised by Sudiro's words, "this is what made me come to your father's house after finding his business card in your room. Don't be angry because I'm doing all this for your happiness, Ga," Astuti explained with an eye that could not be separated from Dirga.
