The Love of a Mr. Nauder

The Love of a Mr. Nauder
Wound in the eyes of little girl


While walking, Leana felt her legs drift. He felt no ground on the earth. The pain kept on looming over her, until it felt like she wanted to keep crying. He looked towards Yuma and Yumi, they were both seen walking while daydreaming until they finally reached the apartment unit they were going to occupy.


Leana opened the apartment door. This is the apartment that Aaron used to live in, as well as the first place they combined love. Stepping on this apartment was painful, but Leana had no choice until they finally entered.


"Mommy, I'm sleepy" said Yuma. The little girl couldn't help but cry, because she was desperately trying not to cry in front of her.


"Come on, Mommy show you to the room" Leana said, while Yumi directly sat down on the sofa, it was obvious that the little girl was daydreaming.


After dropping off Yuma, Leana goes to the kitchen to grab a drink and while taking a drink, Leana's body almost collapses down. Luckily, he was holding the edge of the table. Don't ask how painful the three people are, they must have been completely destroyed.


Yuma looked towards the front. The look in her eyes was so straight, it was obvious that the little girl was enduring the excruciating pain. In the end, Yuma's cries exploded.


'I swear, I don't want to see you later.' Yuma is in the heart. He no longer wants to meet Aaron and the girl's pain is getting worse when they remember the last time they played with Aaron at an amusement park.

Next day.


"Yuma, Yumi why don't you guys want to go to school?" leana asked when Yuma and Yumi were still not wearing their uniforms.


Yuma and Yumi fell silent, as if they were reluctant to connect with anything related to Aaron, because they attended the father's foundation.


"Mom, can we just change schools?" ask Yuma.


Leana did not ask again why Yuma said that, because she understood the reason for Yuma's words, so Leana could only smile. "One more month, okay? Soon there's a graduation party and after that, you can move out of school and we'll get out of here" Leana said, rounding Yumi's eyes.


"Mommy, if we leave here, what if Daddy doesn't find us? What if Daddy doesn't come to our new place?" yumi asked even though she was already let down by Aaron.


Hearing Yumi's words, Yuma immediately turned his head. He looked at the sister with annoyance. "Don't I tell you about last night?" ask Yuma.


"Yes, I'm sorry" said Yumi until at last, Leana stroked her two daughters' heads.


"Are we moving out of this apartment again?" ask Yumi.


Leana smiled then nodded. At first, Leana still wants to stay here in order to enjoy the facilities of Aaron for the sake of his two daughters, so that Yuma and Yumi can live comfortably. However, all night Leana had thought, if she continued to live here and live around Aaron, her daughter would not be able to escape from the shadow of the man, until Leana finally decided to move.


After being calculated, Leana still has enough savings, and maybe the savings can still last for the next few years, but she must live as frugally as possible.


"We're moving out of here" Leana replied, "already, you guys are getting ready. Mommy's gonna take you in a cab, 'cause there's not gonna be anybody to pick you up."


Yuma and Yumi nodded. After that, they immediately prepared and Leana prepared breakfast.

Leana waved her hand as her two daughters walked into the school, and after her daughter was nowhere to be seen, Leana turned around. However, just as she was about to stop the taxi, suddenly Leana thought of something. It seemed, she wanted to enjoy a cup of coffee at the cafe, and now this is where Leana, was at a cafe not far from where Yuma and Yumi were attending school.


'Daddy, if you hadn't left, me and my two children wouldn't have been left like this.' Leana. The clear thread fell down without being held back. Leana is always weak when dealing with the past.


During these eight years, after he had lived with Aaron, he had never thought of his father again, because he was happy with the man. However, after Aaron dumped him, the feeling re-emerged where he always felt pain when he saw his father.


Leana wiped her tears, then turned her head towards the front. Not yet healed the pain of remembering the father, he had to be made sick again when he saw Aaron and Melisa go into the same cafe.


As Aaron walks into the cafe, Aaron is silent on the spot when accidentally, he sees Leana who is also looking at him, until their gazes lock onto each other. Leana smiled faintly, and she would subconsciously step her feet towards his wife.


However, as Melisa withdrew her hand, Aaron came to a realization that he was undoing his intentions. After sitting down, Aaron stole a glance towards Leana. It was like a magnet was telling him to keep looking at his wife, and before long Aaron woke up as Leana got up from her seat. It seems, Leana was no longer able to see Aaron until finally he decided to leave.


"What did you see?" melisa asked as Aaron continued to look towards the side. Melisa followed Aaron's line of sight, and there was no one there.


Aaron nodded, then shook his head. Soon, Aaron and Melisa's order arrives. They also enjoyed the food they ordered. Something is strange. In the past, when she lost Melisa in the first place, she always missed this kind of situation where they enjoyed the dishes in the cafe, but not anymore. Instead, he remembered Ayuma and Ayumi, because once a week he always invited his family to hang out or do activities together. But now, there is no more.


Aaron lowered his head then he sighed many times. 'Lord, is my decision correct?' Aaron sat down, until Aron soon realized when he heard the voice of Melisa who asked.


"Baby, are we going to go shopping after this?" ask Melisa.


Aaron just cleared his throat. He's really not excited. Again, his mind was fixed on Leana. During these eight years, Leana had never taken her shopping. Never bother him. The woman never demanded anything, even though it was Aaron who forced Leana to go shopping.


But now, Melisa instead invited him, but she had no other choice. This is her choice and this is her decision, so in the end she was forced to follow Melisa's wishes.

Yuma and Yumi fell silent on the garden chair. They are currently resting, they are not going to the cafeteria because Leana is giving supplies for them.


The two little girls continued to stare at the supply box given by her mother. The two little girls feel tight, because every morning who prepares provisions for them is Aaron, because indeed Aaron is in charge of always preparing anything about Yuma and Yumi with his own hands. But now it is different, and that is what makes Yuma and Yumi feel crowded, so they do not want to open the lunchbox.


"Yuma, aren't you hungry?" ask Yumi. Yuma realized, he wiped the corner of his watery eyes and then he opened the supply box from the mother.


"Let's eat, don't think about him anymore" Yuma said. Yumi nodded, the two little girls were eating with a broken feeling, even Yumi's cries were already sullen. While Yuma, she desperately tried to hold back her cries.


It seems excessive, but believe me for Yuma and Yumi this is a painful thing, because they are used to living a lot of affection from Aaron, and now they have to lose the figure of their beloved father.


***


Finally, school hours are over. Yuma and Yumi walked out of the classroom, believing the mother was waiting outside. While walking, Yuma and Yumi stop their steps when they see the father's car.


Although Yuma had hated his father, but somehow his heart felt happy when he saw the father's car. So did Yumi who looked radiant when Aaron came to see them.


But before long, Yuma and Yumi's excitement changes when it's not Aaron who gets out of the car, but Larry, Aaron's secretary. Apparently, Aaron told Larry to visit his two children.
