THE LIFE OF A MAN
PART 219'S
Happy reading..
“Anthony is still sleeping.”
“...........”
“You'll wake up now, or later?”
“Let's go.”
“Ya already then ..”
“...........”
“I'll go down first to prepare breakfast ..”
“...........”
“Have prepared clothes for you to wear? ..”
“Already.”
“Ya already then, I will go prepare breakfast now .”
Just a nod that the Son gave the farewell girl to go downstairs.
**
The son drew his lips thinly, after the Girl closed the bathroom connecting door and walked in closet, and the Son's wife was no longer visible.
Son knows very well, if he has hurt the girl with his attitude and words last night. It's just that the Son hasn't had time to apologize for it until this second.
Not that he does not want to apologize, or is confused to string up an apology, but the Son is also looking for the right time for him and the Girl can talk from heart to heart.
The Son must explain again and make the Girl understand his departure to face someone who wants the Son to finish very badly. And the Son understood very well the worry and fear of the Girl for her safety.
The Son did not even dispute the prohibition of the Girl which was delivered through the plea of both the word and the gaze of the Girl on him for revenge.
What made Putra furious was the muttering of the Girl who said that his wife regretted her decision to live with the Son, until a sharp word of threat came out of her mouth to the Girl.
But after the Son returned to the room after leaving the Girl in a state of indignation, and he saw a trace of tears in the eyes of the wife, the Son's heart felt a moment's notice.
And when morning came, the girl who had also previously spoken sharply to the Son and sulked with neglect of the Son, and it also became one of the wrath of the Son on his wife, The son saw not prolonging their quarrel, for when his wife awoke from her sleep, a kiss was landed on the jawline of the Son.
Making the Son's heart full at that moment, because it turns out his wife no longer follows the emotions to stay sulking at him, let alone look vengeful.
The attitude of the girl looks ordinary. Even the usual smile, the girls showed me every time they sat all morning since the Son opened his eyes.
But unfortunately, the Son showed a different attitude to the Girl. Not the Son wants to reply to the Girl who ignores him at night, but the Son actually feels ashamed of himself, why to behave childishly to the Girl.
Though the Son is eager to hold the Girl in his arms. But yes, the Son is the Son. An intelligent man, who has the brain's ability to plan neatly, yet is not slick in his attitude towards women, though he can be very romantic towards girls.
‘Maybe I'll talk to Bruna, how do I prepare romantic things for Girl to perfect my apology to Girl later ..’ The Son said in his heart.
Afterwards Putra immediately flushed himself under the shower.
‘If I don't have to go to the Embassy in the Capital, and take care of a lot of things today, I'll take the Girl for a walk to the beach where I proposed to her first.’
The son rests in his heart while he is bathing.
‘Do I invite Girls to join me later in the Capital? ..’
The son nodded slowly.
‘It feels not, later Girls even bored and exhausted, because my schedule in the Capital is quite solid today.’
The son still speaks for himself in his heart.
‘Now I have to think first how I told Anth, if I'm going to go again ..’
The son hastened his bath.
‘Maybe I should just take Anth to the Capital, as well as see the progress of our new residence there, if Anth sulks after I tell him about my departure.’

“Oh my sleepy head boy is wake up already (Wah my son who is a sleepy sleepy has woken up) ..” said the son who has been neatly dressed, and is now visiting Anthony's room.
“Good morning, Papa ..” greet Anthony still on the Papa with his face of his pillow.
“Good morning, My Boy.”
The son approached Anthony who was still on his bed.
Then a kiss on the forehead the Son gave to Anthony as often when Anthony woke up from his sleep in the morning.
“How was your sleep? (How do you sleep?) ..”
“Very comfy (Very good), Papa,” says Anthony.
The son who had been sitting near Anthony then gently stroked Anthony's head with a smile.
“Where’s Mama, (Which name), Papa?.”
Anthony asked about the girl.
“Preparing breakfast (While preparing breakfast)”
Anthony then muttered after hearing the Son's reply.
“Do you want to take a bath first, or breakfast? (You want to take a shower first, or have breakfast? ) ..”
“I better take a bath first then breakfast (I should take a shower first new breakfast) right (is Papa?) ..”
“Alright then. Do you want to use a bathtub or shower? (Well, if so. You want to manding using a bathtub or shower?).”
“Shower.”
“Okay.” respond Son.
Then Anthony was about to roll out of his bed.
“But before that Anth (But previously Anth) ..”
The son held back Anthony slowly and said softly.
“There’s something that I need to tell and talk with you (There's something I want to say and talk to you about) .”
“Then tell me (Yes already said it), Papa ..”
The son then took a breath and exhaled softly before speaking and saying the thing he wanted to say to Anthony.
And after that, the Son explained all about his departure plan to Anthony, sorting out words that Anthony could understand easily.
And also so, his favorite adopted child does not sulk let alone grieve as a girl who is not willing if the Son goes to avenge him, to the end of a fight.

“I hope you understand about this (I hope you understand about this), My Boy .. I really want to do this, so I can feel peace, all of us will live I peace after (I really want to do this, so I can feel calm, so I can feel calm, we can all live in peace afterwards) ..”
The son spoke like that, after he said the outline of things he wanted to do in the near future to Anthony. And Son believes, if Anthony is smart enough to understand it.
“I understand (I understand), Papa..”.
“Thank you, Anth..”
“But promise me one thing (But promise me one thing), Papa..”.
Anthony broke Son's embrace on him.
“Tell me (Tell me), Anth ..” says Son.
“Promise me that you will comeback here (Please promise me that Papa will be back here) ..” pinta Anthony.
Where the Son steadily nodded his head in front of Anthony. “I promise (I promise), Anth....”.
Of course the Son could promise Anthony that. Because of course, he will try his hardest to keep himself alive, for the sake of Anthony, and also the Girl of course.
“And promise, that you will drill me how to fight like a man right after you comeback here when you really killed that bad guy who really killed Daddy and Mommy, okay Papa? (And promise me, that Papa will train me to fight like a real man after Papa comes back here and has killed the bad guys who killed Daddy and Mommy, Yes Papa?) ..”
Where the Son just pulled the corner of his lips, then brought Anthony's body into his arms.
“If you say yes, then I will let you go (If Papa says yes, then I will let Papa go).”.
“Alright, alright (Alright, alright) ..” kekeh Son.
The son slowly ruffled the hair of Anthony whose face was being crushed after the Son agreed his wish.
“I wil teach you how to fight like a real man when I got back here (I'll teach you how to fight like a real man when I get back here)..
The son promised his favorite foster child.
Anthony cheerfully raised both of his hands into the air. “Promise?!.” asked Anthony later, asking for reassurance from the Papa.
The son agreed with a nod. “Promise!” son's Promise.
“Yeay!...”
The son shuffled Anthony's hair slowly.
“I’ll go to take a bath now (I'll shower now), Papa.”
Anthony then moved from his position.
The son stood up.
“Don’t use cold water (Do not use cold water).”
“Yes, Papa.”
“I’ll prepare your clothes then (I'll prepare your clothes then) .”
“Okay, Papa!” anthony is going to go into the bathroom.
“Ah, by the way .... (by the way), Anth.. do you want to go with me to the Capital? (Do you want to come with me to the Capital?)..”.
The son approached Anthony.
“I have some things to do at there, and also I want to find a gift for you Mama. Because she feels a little bit upset to me (There are some things I want to take care of there, and also I want to find a gift for your Mama. Because he's a little pissed off at me).”.
“Ck, ck, ck .. Papa, Papa . if you make Mama upset. I’m sure she won’t talk to you (if Papa irritates Mama, I'm sure she won't talk to you) ..” said Anthony with his adult-like song.
And his behavior made the Son giggle amusedly. “That’s why I want to buy her a gift!.. now, you want to come with me to the capital or not? (That's why I want to give her a gift!... Now, you want to come with me to the Capital or not?)..”.
“Of course I want! (Of course I want!)”
“Now go to take a bath!. and don’t be long.”
“(Now go take a shower!. and not for long).”
“Okay, Papa!”
“Ah, another thing! (one more!)”
“What a Chatty Papa! (Papa chatty once!) ..”
The son chuckled at Anthony's taunts on him.
“What is it (Why), Papa?” ask Anthony. “You must be want to say, that I have to keep my mouth shut, because you want to give Mama a surprise! (Papa would have said, if I had to keep my mouth shut, because Papa wanted to surprise Mama!) ..”
The son chuckled again.
“Am I right? (I'm right, right?)”
The son raised his thumb while smiling broadly at Anthony. Then Son opened the bathroom door Anthony.
Then Anthony rushed himself into the bathroom and cleaned himself without the help of the Son, because the handsome boy had refused to be bathed by anyone since he had his seventh birthday, including the son who often helped him to take a bath.

Currently ....
“What’s wrong? (What's up?)..
Bruna who was walking behind the Son from the second floor, had appeared and he immediately asked one of his brothers who seemed to look a bit angry.
“Gadis is not here also (Girl is also not here).” Answer Son.
“Maybe in the Backyard Garden? (Perhaps in the back garden?)” bruna.
Son shakes. “She’s not there also (She is also not there)” replied Son again. “Mother Marsih said she’s just from there, and Girl is not a the backyard garden (Mother Marsih said she just got from there, and Girl is not in the back garden)”
The son snorted violently then.
“I’ll go check workroom (I'll check the workspace)”
**
The son had reached the study, and opened the door of the room in haste.
The son even checked the secret room in the workspace in the Villa.
But the girl wasn't there either.
And the fact that the Girl is not in the workspace, makes the Son more upset.
‘No! It is impossible for the Girl to leave from here’ Inner Son. Then he quickly set foot into his private room and the Girl returned.
“Hey, what’s wrong? (What's up), Son?...” Damian, who passed the Son and saw the panicked face of the Son in his view, spontaneously asked one of his brothers.
“I can’t find Girl (I can't find Girl) ..”
The son answered the question in passing, as he walked quickly towards his room to check on the girl's clothes in the closet in a walk in closet.
Hoping if what he thought about the girl leaving the Villa, did not happen.
