Nia is holding Alana who is currently focusing on the television screen. While next to her was the husband who was sitting casually holding Alea's figure.
Currently they are in the family room watching television even though the clock has shown at 8 pm. Since then Alana did not stop crying asking for the whereabouts of Arga who did not return home. Although Nia had already explained that if Arga was staying somewhere else, Alana would still wait for her brother to come home and only then would she sleep.
"Lana, that brother didn't come home. He spent the night somewhere else. You see there are many tasks so you can not go home now," said Nia with a soft voice. "We're sleeping now, huh? It's night. Little kids don't sleep well at night," he said, immediately getting the gel from Alana.
"You wait for my brother."
Bima who saw the stubborn attitude of Alana could only shake her head slowly. "Come, Alana and Alea sleep with Papa and Mami. Wanna?"
Alana immediately raised her head. "Can, Pa?" His eyes sparkled at the papa who immediately nodded his head in response.
"Come on."
Nia looked at her husband who was silently nodding towards her. It didn't matter that the two boys slept with them tonight. It was better than waiting for the stubborn Alana not to sleep if not waiting for her brother to come home. While Alea just followed what his twin sister would want.
Bima and Nia positioned Alana and Alea in their midst. While they are on the edge flanking their twins so as not to fall if placed on the edge of the bed.
This time Alea's position was beside Nia. In the middle was Alana, and next to Alana was the father.
"Sleep, yes, dear," persuaded Bima in a soft voice. Not to forget the man also rubbed Alana's head fondly so that the daughter immediately slept.
On the other hand Alea herself had already started to close her eyes. The boy asked that Nia rub his head as well which of course was immediately responded well by Nia.
"Pa, brother's coming home tomorrow?" Alana looked at her papa curiously. Alana can't be far from Arga. His older brother always sang to them before they went to bed.
"Yes. Tomorrow you're home." Bima kissed Alana's forehead. "Now Alana is sleeping. Do not forget to read the prayer before going to sleep," Bima ordered. Alana nodded her head in agreement. The little girl then began to close her eyes making the looking Bima smile.
Bima raised a little her body staring across where Nia was staring towards her as well.
Bima smiled. "May's kids, take a day off tonight. Tomorrow is new Mas kelonin again," said Bima teasing Nia.
"Okay, the father's a child. Tonight we have a holiday first," replied Nia did not want to lose.
The two smiled meaningfully then both spread their bodies and hugged their respective daughters.
Bima feels very grateful to be given this kind of blessing to have a happy family with his wife and children as a complement to his life.
Next morning.
Alana's crying voice sounded in the living room. The little boy asked for the whereabouts of their eldest brother whose whereabouts he had not seen this morning upon waking up from sleep.
While Alea just stared silently at her sister who kept crying asking for the whereabouts of their eldest brother.
"Alana, Honey. This is a video phone. You want to talk to me, right?"
Alana who was crying spontaneously stopped then turned to look at her mother. Seen the Mami carrying the phone in hand while showing the screen where there is a brother.
The puffed-up cheeks were flushed with streams of tears falling down her cheeks, making Arga who was on the other side cluck.
Arga doesn't like to see his two sisters cry. Just look at the expression of Alana's face makes Arga not bear to his sister.
"Abang, when do you come home? Alana wants you to come home." Back Alana cries looking at Arga from the phone screen. The little boy returned as if to make Arga so heartless.
"Alana, stop crying, huh? Brother will be home soon. Alana stopped crying. If Alana stops crying, later in the afternoon you take a walk with Alea."
Cutely, Alana tried to wipe away the tears that were on her cheeks. His eyes glinted at Arga. "Walk?" tanyanya enthusiastic.
Arga nodded his head.
"Yes. A walk. That's why Alana stopped crying. If you don't, you don't want to take Alana for a walk."
"Lana stopped crying. But, brother's coming home, huh? Yea? Yea?" alana's Bujuk. The little girl persuaded Arga like an adult to persuade the child who was sulking. That certainly made Arga chuckle across there.
"Yes. Brother wants to take a bath first, brother went straight home."
"Yes!"
Nia simply stared in silence at the interaction between Arga and Alana. This kid really can't be far from Arga. While with Kello they are indeed familiar but not as close as Alana and Arga.
Arga stared at the wallpaper screen on his phone featuring the full members of his family. The young man rubbed the large screen affectionately with a smile. This is his family. Although he has found a family with blood, Arga will not be able to escape from the family that has been with him since he was born coupled with the presence of a stepmother and her two younger siblings. Arga knew he had no blood relation with Bima, but Arga felt a familiarity more than an inner bond. Although he and Jillo and Kello have one mother and another father, Arga still accepts it because this is already a predetermined destiny.
Shortly after the door was knocked, Arga immediately came out and opened the door.
The young man found the figure of Dirman standing awkwardly in front of the door of his room.
"Ehem, have you taken a shower?" Dirman knew this was a silly question because he saw the face of Arga who had just woken up. Understandably he was very awkward and nervous standing in front of his biological children alone without other family members.
"No, Sir. I just woke up." Arga answered politely. "Why, Sir?"
"Oh, you want to have breakfast together."
"Yes, wait a minute. I'm gonna take a shower and get ready."
"Then wait in the dining room."
"Yes." Yeah."
Arga went inside the room after closing the door. The young man picked up the backpack on the sofa and took out a set of clothes that he always carried with him just in case.
Arga took a leisurely bath regardless of the four adults who were sitting in the dining room while waiting for his presence.
