The Love I Don't Miss
Part 59 (Fretched Hearts )
The elevator that brought Kenzo kept crawling up. Arriving at the highest floor of the building. Where her special room is. Passed the greetings of several employees who were in his room, including Venom the assistant.
Kenzo just threw down the door of the room. He sat down in his work chair. A chair that shows that he has the highest standing in that company.
"Why did I become like a thief like this." his grunts gnawed at his temple.
"I feel like sooner or later Zio will know everything!" muttered fretfully.
What would it be like if it were all revealed. Then all the residents of the Adhitama building find out, if the wife of the CEO is his former wife manager.
"Calina is mine! I don't care about people's judgment. But Clarice?"
"Hahahhhh!" he brushed his hair violently and repeatedly. Until the hair that was originally neat and handsome, now messy. However, it does not reduce his good looks.
"What if Zio demands Clarice's custody? What if Zio doesn't accept what's been kept secret?"
Kenzo's mind kept turning. Every year, Clarice's birthday arrives is a heartbreaking day for Kenzo Adhitama.
How not, the older Clarice, the girl will grow up and understand every problem that is complicated to explain.
For a long time he knew... The wedding date of Mommy and her Daddy. Which marriage was in the title when Clarice was 1 year old. I don't know and don't know anything. The girl asked, Who is your real father?
Long - long little girl will know if in this world there are biological children and stepchildren. For a long time, he may understand various stories about the life of stepchildren.
He has not been able to explain all that to the little girl who every day, since birth he always took the time to hold, even if only for a moment.
It was just that the man chose to harbor all the unrest himself. Because he was sure, as long as Clarice was still with him, then he still had plenty of opportunities to give the little girl happy memories. Still have a chance to instill in the little heart of the girl, if she loves Clarice wholeheartedly.
But ever since Zio's reappearance, it feels like everything has drifted. Not drowning, not floating. Because time seems to just shorten.
He has full rights to have Calina, as he married Calina when she became a widow. But Clarice?
Whatever the reason, Clarice's body has Zio's blood flowing. There was a part of Zio's body that he couldn't interfere with.
"Calm down, Ken! Everything will be fine!" muttered later. Encouraging yourself as if inferior with his position in Clarice's heart later.
Tok tok!
The door was knocked from the outside, and Kenzo immediately allowed the person who was none other than Venom to enter.
"Sir Kenzo? What's with my hair?" venom asked in shock at Kenzo's random hair.
"It's okay - why!" kenzo answered wrongly. He immediately stood up and went into the bathroom to straighten his hair.
"What's wrong?" kenzo asked after coming out of the bathroom in his room.
"According to Mr. Kenzo's orders, if the meeting is advanced. I just reminded some of the staff already in the meeting room" Venom said.
"All right!" kenzo replied flatly, "bring the file!"
"Good, Sir!" Venom immediately grabbed the file on Kenzo's desk. "I'm sorry, sir!" pampit Venom after taking what he was told.
"Hemm.." replied Kenzo flatly.
After Venom's departure, Kenzo let out a heavy sigh. He shook his head slowly. Then he looked at the photo of Clarice and Galen on his desk. Two little angels who became his encouragement to work.
"Daddy loves you so much!" said later. He kissed the 5R framed photo.

If in the company Adhitama there are two handsome men who are working, then in Kenzo apartment there is a mother who is feeding her second child breakfast.
"My galsang, come on! One more.." said Calina thrust a small spoon in front of the tiny mouth of the 2-year-old boy.
"No no no!" galen said in a small voice.
"Come, Sayaang. eat is not finished yet.." persuaded Calina.
"Alright, Cal! Don't be forced." said Mama Shinta approaching Calina and Galen who were on the balcony.
"Let's go again, a little bit!"
"Hem... Alright!" calina replied as she placed a small bowl on the round table.
"Cal, can you ask?" ask Mama Shinta.
"Just ask, Ma!" calina answered while giving Galen some water.
"Do you know how Zhika is?" ask Mama Shinta.
"Of course Calina knows, Ma!" answer Calina.
"Where do you know?"
"Calina was monitoring from the sisters who served there!" answer Calina. "Actually every Mas Zio visited him also Calina tau."
"Oh, huh?" mama Shinta asked in disbelief, "why didn't you ever tell me?"
"Calina just wants to reduce the discussion about Mas Zio and his family in this house. Calina doesn't want Mas Kenzo to take offense." Calina replied. "Especially Mas Kenzo is very inferior with his position in Clarice's life." he continued.
"Minders?"
"Mas Kenzo was afraid that if Clarice would know she wasn't his real father, Clarice would hate him."
Sighs, "you have to plant early on, Cal. Give Clarice some understanding slowly. His instincts would never misjudge!"
"Calina tau, Ma..."
"Just Mas Kenzo wasn't ready to tell Clarice!"
"Let it be until Kenzo is ready. Mama's sure, Kenzo's not that weak guy to accept reality."
"Yes, Ma.." replied Calina. "The problem now is..."
"What?"
"Mas Zio's back at the office, Ma. Every day Mas Kenzo and Mas Zio meet. And that's what makes Mas Kenzo even more afraid!"
Mama Shinta took a deep breath, and greeted him slowly.
"We're gonna work this out together, Cal! My mom will always be by your side! Support the best for all of you! If we can, we should be able to make Kenzo and Zio make peace if at any time everything is revealed!"
"Yes, Ma!" answer Calina.

"Zhika.. Let's take a shower." said a nurse to Zhika who sat pensively in the long chair of the garden.
"Come, Zhika!" bring again.
But Zhika did not budge.
"Look over there! your friends have finished their baths" said the Sister, "There's Kayla, Moza, Rianti and the others!"
"Heeehh!" indifferent Zhika did not care.
"Come, Zhika... Saturday your brother will come again."
"Papa.. Mama.." said Zhika irregularly.
The nurse also breathed a big sigh. Zhika was indeed quite difficult to persuade. Unlike some other ODGJ as he mentioned his name earlier.
"Alright, Zhika.. Nurse to your friends first, huh?" pamit nun, although never get an answer from a Zhika.
