The deafening sound of the phone ringing turned the attention of Emila who was calming Arshen to the source of the sound. Emila, who can guess who called her, asked the baby sister to get her phone on the table.
"Hallo," said Emila after the call was connected.
Across the street, Arkana seemed to be smiling and listening to the voice of the woman he had missed so much, even though he had not met for a few days.
"Hallo, Mila." Answer Arkana.
Arshen's cry sounded louder as if the one who called his current Mommy was his Daddy.
"Mila, is our son crying?" Ask Arkana.
"Yes. Since then fussing on this."
Arkana turned the phone call into a video call. Emila also received the transfer of the call until now Arkana's face filled the screen of her phone.
"Hey, Daddy's handsome son, why are you crying?" Ask Arkana.
Emila brings the phone to her son's face so that her son can see Arkana's face. "Arshen, it's Daddy again our phone." Emila tells Arshen who doesn't understand what she's saying. Even so, Emila and Arkana continued to invite her crying son to speak until finally the sound of Arshen's cry subsided.
Arkana and Emila breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Arshen who was now silent.
"Why is Arshen crying so hard? Is he thirsty?" Ask Arkana while rubbing her son's face which now fills her phone screen.
"Looks not. I suckled her."
"Is it because they miss me that they keep crying?" Arkana guess.
"It's only been three days apart from them that I've been so longing for this." Said Arkana later.
Emila turned the video image onto her face. "It looks like the children also miss Daddy so cry on."
"Kids only? No mother?" Ask Arkana.
Emila was speechless with a face that was starting to heat up. Arkana's usual questions managed to make it a misbehavior.
Across the street Arkana held a smile at his wife's timid attitude. The longing in his heart only grew bigger if he saw his wife like this.
A few minutes of video calling was interrupted when Arkana received a phone call from her business partner.
"Daddy is busy. Let's go to sleep again, yeah." Emila said to the baby and then went down from the bed to put the baby into the baby box.

Three months passed without feeling Arkana and Emila passed by living in a different city. Longing always haunts the two at a time when Arkana must be busy working in Riau and can not approach Emila and her two children in the capital.
If the doctor's prediction is not wrong, three more months is the time of birth of the baby in the Lady's womb. Arkana was very impatient to wait for that time to come. The time when he would part with Lady and be able to re-marry Emila legally in the eyes of law and religion.
No different from Arkana, Miss Selvy too. He was also impatient to wait for that time to come. After Arkana and Lady separated, Bu Selvy could ask Arkana to bring Emila back to live in Riau so that she would not have to endure such great longing for her two grandchildren.
"Arsen... Ashila.. Wait for Daddy and Mommy to get back together, yeah." Said Arkana while wiping the screen of her phone that showed the faces of her two children.
