The Love of a Mr. Nauder
Rigid

Leana kept looking at the phone ringing. It was so painful when the name Aaron came out. Although it was difficult, but she tried to restrain herself from raising the call from her husband.

To be honest, Leana misses Aaron, but on the other hand it hurts too. Leana sighed then exhaled, then after that she raised her call.

In the end, Leana lost to her ego. Leana was defeated by her longing, until she followed her heart. He missed hearing the man's voice.

Silent.

No one spoke, neither Aaron nor Leana locked their mouths together until they heard a word. But after a long wait, in the end Aaron's baritone voice made Leana rub his chest.

"Hello Leana," call Aaron from across the street. Leana cleared her throat with wet eyes, tears running down her cheeks. He looked up to hold back so that the clear grain did not continue to fall.

"L-yes, Aaron," Leana answered stammeringly.

"You haven't slept?" asked Aaron bitterly.

"I woke up" Leana replied.

"Then, what are Yuma and Yum—"

"Aaron, I'm sorry I'm sleepy" said Leana, cutting Aaron off. He immediately turned off his call.

Leana could no longer hold back her tears as Aaron discussed Yuma and Yumi, until he immediately closed the call. Leana kept her cell phone back, then laid her body on the bed, next to her twins. He pulled out a blanket for Yuma and Yumi, then enveloped her body.

Leana looked at Yuma and Yumi fixedly, and at that moment she could see Geo's face on the two. Suddenly, Leana thought of something that made her smile bitterly.

'In eight years' time, I was able to change your name in my heart because there was Aaron. But now, I'm alone here. There's no one I can hold on to. Really, it would be hard to forget that man, Leana's inner self.

Leana rubbed her face, cleaned her tears then the beautiful woman decided to close her eyes, trying to fall asleep.

***

After Leana turned off the call, Aaron rushed to slam his body on the bed. The handsome man looked at the cell phone, where Leana's number was still there. Aaron closed his eyes withstanding the overwhelming pain, until in the end the handsome man closed his eyes, trying to fall asleep.

The night changed in the morning.

Aaron awoke from his sleep when he heard the noise from the direction of the room, until the man immediately rubbed his eyes to collect lives, and when the noise was getting heard, Aaron looked at the wall clock. Apparently, the time shows at eight in the morning.

Aaron looked for a source of rowdy, so he immediately walked there. Aaron's eyes were round when he saw what he saw.

"What the fuck?!" Aaron screams when he sees Melisa getting rid of Leana's belongings left behind, or things that Leana didn't bring.

"I don't want any trace of him here. Just look, I'm going to fill these closets with my stuff" Melisa said.

Aaron rubbed a rough face. She felt Melisa was overdoing it. "Keep it back to its place" he said.

"Baby, we're getting married. Then why are you still keeping the stuff?" Melisa protest.

"Sisa, do you hear me? Keep it in place again," said Aron who suddenly did not receive when Melisa put away Leana's belongings, until finally Melisa clucked upset.

The woman did not obey, but stomped her feet and walked towards Aaron and passed Aaron's body just like that.

"Saw!" snapped Aaron.

Melisa stopped her steps. "I'll have the waiter take care of it" he said.

After saying that, Melisa turned around. "Basic sucks," Melisa grumbled at Aaron.

While Aaron, immediately fixated when he saw the stuff. He only realized that Leana was not carrying any valuables. He immediately walked towards the closet where Leana kept the jewelry.

"Why didn't he bring this?" Aaron said in a stark manner. He looked at the closet with a look of disbelief. She thought Leana would bring the jewels she had bought, but she didn't. The jewelry was of course worth fantastic, even Aaron asked from a special designer to make it for Leana. Now, however, look at the jewelry his wife did not bring.

Leana carries only a few rings and a necklace, and it is Aaron's wedding gift from year to year, while he does not carry any other jewelry. She also did not bring any luxury items from her husband. He just brought his clothes.

Aaron was silent when he saw the jewelry. The man rubbed his rough face and before long, the waiter knocked on the door until Aaron let him in.

"Take care of it, lest anything diminish in the least. Put it very neatly," said Aaron to the waiter, until the waiter nodded. Then after that, Aaron walked towards the bathroom to refresh himself.

Under the shower, Aaron lifted his head up until the water hit his face. He closed his eyes withstanding a sense that he himself did not know. At this time, Aaron's soul seemed lost from his body, until in the end Aaron turned off the tap and then rubbed his face. Then after that, Aaron took a towel and reflected.

"Daddy, it's Sunday. Let's play."

"Daddy, aren't we going to go to the amusement park?"

"Daddy, why am I only providing this?"

"Daddy, let's go shopping for toys."

Again, Aaron had a rough face as the words Yuma and Yumi kept ringing in his head, so the man straightened up and walked out of the room.

Aaron came out of the room, the man was planning to have breakfast. Today she did not want to go to the office, her mood was ruined because Melisa was disfiguring Leana's stuff.

"Baby." Suddenly, there was a sound coming from the side. Melisa who was sulking, seemed to have to persuade Aaron. It would be dangerous if Aaron got angry at her.

Aaron, who was still upset with Melisa, only turned a glance until Melisa was struck by panic. The woman immediately walked towards Aaron and held the hand of the man who was walking. "I'm sorry" said Melisa.

Aaron stopped his steps and then he looked over. "Don't repeat it again. I don't like you shuffling Leana's stuff" Aaron said, until Melisa nodded. But inwardly, she cursed the man who would soon become her husband.

"Let's have breakfast, I've made you some food" Melisa said. Aaron did not answer. He resumed his steps.

"You cooked this?" asked Aaron at the dinner table. The woman nodded, of course it was a lie because she obviously bought it from the restaurant.

"Now I can cook, and every day I will cook for you" Melisa said again until Aaron nodded his head. There was not the slightest happy look, different when Leana cooked food for him.

Aaron pulled the chair, then the man sat himself there, followed by Melisa who also sat next to Aaron. While tasting the food, Aaron fell silent. The food was quite good, until he looked towards Melisa.

"Your food is good" said Aaron until Melisa smiled triumphantly. Of course he felt proud to be praised, despite the cuisine he made from the restaurant.

"Baby, where are we going after this?" ask Melisa.

"I don't want to go shopping with you. I want to rest" said Aaron.

Melisa's face suddenly frowned when she heard that, even though a million lists had been stored in the brain. He wants to shop as much as possible, but look Aaron can't even be invited.

"But I, right, gave you a card. You can use it, then why do you still have to trouble me?" aaron asked scathingly until Melisa fell silent. He changed his face to sad. In the past, where maybe Aaron refused his wish, but look now even Aaron blatantly did not want to accompany him.

Aaron sighed then exhaled. She also stroked Melisa's hair. "Yes, I've been with you" said Aaron, although the feeling was different, but Aaron at least could see Melisa's face like this, until finally Melisa again developed her smile.

***

Now, here they are, in a very large shopping mall in Russia. As usual, Melisa held Aaron's hand and then they went inside.

"What do you want to buy?" ask Aaron.

"I want to buy another bag" Melisa replied.

"Yesterday you bought a bag. Now buy another bag?" ask Aaron. Yesterday, Melisa bought everything in the store and now Melisa is back to buy it.

When Melisa chooses, Aaron sits down on the sofa. The man fiddled with his phone, and he unknowingly tapped on the gallery, where there were many pictures of Leana as well as photos of Yuma and Yumi.

Honestly, Aaron was most happy when photographing Leana, Yuma and Yumi while they were asleep, because the faces of the three people were so peaceful when they were asleep. Before long, Aaron realized that in the end Aaron out of the gallery and fiddled with his phone.

While looking outwards, Aaron accidentally saw Leana, Yuma and Yumi passing in front of the store he was visiting, he quickly got up from his seat and ran outside, chasing Leana, Yuma and Yumi.

"Leana, Yuma, Yumi!" call Aaron.

Leana, Yuma and Yumi who were walking immediately stopped their steps, then they turned around. Today, Leana accidentally invites Yuma and Yumi to buy a doll, because Yumi complains of wanting to sleep while hugging the doll. They didn't expect to see Aaron here.

"Yuma, Yumi," call Aaron. His face was so sparkling when he saw Yuma and Yumi, but before long his face dimmed again when Yuma was reluctant to look at him, while Yumi immediately turned her gaze in another direction. Leana who saw the reaction of her daughter, immediately looked towards Aaron.

"Hello Aaron" said Leana until Aaron realized, then turned his gaze to Leana.

"You guys are shopping?" ask Aaron. Leana nodded.

"Yuma, Yumi, let's say hello to Uncle Aaron" Leana said.

Aaron was sculpting when Leana called him uncle. Though, wasn't he the one who first asked Yuma and Yumia to call him uncle, then why didn't he accept now?

Leana turned her head towards Aaron, as did the two twin girls who lowered their heads. "Hello Uncle Aaron," said the two.

Again, a gaping wound in Aaron's heart, was doused in salt when he heard Yuma and Yumi calling him uncle.

"Baby." Suddenly, Melisa's voice came from behind. Apparently, the woman caught up because Aaron was nowhere to be, so Leana turned to look towards Melisa. Don't ask how devastated Leana is right now, which is for sure she's completely devastated to see her husband walk with another woman, even if soon they're going to get divorced.

"Aaron, then we'll excuse you." Leana decides to turn around then she invites Yuma and Yumi to leave Aaron, while Aaron is still silent on the spot.

It felt, Aaron wanted to move his hand towards Yuma's back and ask them to turn around and approach him, but his body was sculpting. He realized he couldn't do that because of the decision he made himself.

"Let's go in. Wait inside, I need your opinion" Melisa said.

Aaron did not answer, his eyes continued to look at the back of his wife and two children, until Melisa immediately pulled Aaron's arm and inevitably, Aaron went back into the store.

When sitting back on the sofa, Aaron felt half his soul was lost again, until he rubbed a rough face. He mustn't regret his decision, that's how Aaron thought.

***

"We sit there first" said Leana. While walking, he invited her to sit down to see Yuma and Yumi bowed. He knows Yuma and Yumi's encounter with Aaron must have given his own wounds to his twin daughters until, at last, he, Yuma and Yumi nodded and they were now sitting on the seats on the side.

Leana opens the bag and takes the tumblr, then gives it to Yuma and Yumi, allowing her two daughters to drink.

"You guys okay?" ask Leana.

"No, I'm not okay" Yumi replied, while Yuma did not answer. He looked ahead while holding a bottle.

"It's okay, sooner or later you'll forget about Uncle Aaron" Leana said.

"Mommy, don't say his name again." Suddenly Tiba Yuma spoke until Leana turned her head, then nodded.

Fifteen minutes later, Leana, Yuma and Yumi got up from their seats and decided to go straight to the store that sells dolls. When entering, Yuma and Yumi's eyes immediately sparkled when they saw the puppet in front of them.

The two children immediately looked at the doll on display. There is one doll that Yumi wants, until she asks her mother to take it and when Leana takes it, Leana sees the price attached to the doll.

Leona closed her eyes when the doll was so expensive. Perhaps, Leana had the money to buy the doll, but she had to live frugally. In a month, he will be gone. However, he could not bear to tell Yumi that this is very expensive.

"Mommy," call Yumi.

Leana realized then she gave the doll to Yumi. "This is Yumi" he said.

Yumi looks at the mother strangely because the mother's face suddenly looks like a confused person, until finally Yumi's eyes are rounded when she sees the price of the doll, then she gives it to her mother again.

"Mommy, not this. This is not good" Yumi said. Leana.

"Yumi, this is good. You can choose this" said Leana.

"No Mommy, the price of this doll is expensive" said Yumi. In the end, Yumi is honest that the doll is not good, but the price is very expensive to make Leana rub the hair of her youngest daughter.

"It's okay. We don't know when we're coming back here, and we don't know if this doll will be there again or not" Leana said.

"Can Mommy?" ask Yumi until Leana nods.

Yumi immediately hugged the doll, then she would show it to Yuma.

"Yuma, look at me buying this doll" Yumi said, showing off.

Yuma who has not chosen, immediately turned her head and then she saw the price of the doll listed there. "Yumi why did you choose this?" tanyakanya.

"Mommy allowed it" Yumi said.

"Oh." Yuma is just a oh-ria. Previously, he also wanted to buy a doll, but seeing the price in Yumi's hands, he undoes his intention because he does not want to make the mother dizzy. At least, maybe Yumi is more mature, more understanding of what happened to them, so she decided not to buy a doll because she did not want the mother to be burdened.

"Yuma, why haven't you chosen yet?" leana asked who was approaching her twin daughters.

"Nothing attracts Mommy," Yuma lied.

"Let's choose, it's okay," said Leana again, from the look in her eyes it seems that her daughter is lying, because Yuma several times glanced at the doll beside Yumi.

"You want this?" leana asked as she picked up the doll on display, then gave it to Yuma, until Yuma shook her head.

"No way, Mommy. Let's just pay for it. Then after that, just buy me a milkshake" Yuma said. Not wanting to hear the rejection from the mother, Yuma finally walked ahead to wait outside to make Leana sigh.

Leana walked straight to the cashier to pay. After finishing, Yumi immediately hugged the doll and then took it out, as well as Leana who also caught up with Yumi.

"Let's buy a milkshake" Leana took her to Yuma, who was waiting, nodded and then she straightened up, and then followed her.

"Yuma, you just want a milkshake? You want some other food?" leana asked while the order was being processed.

Yuma looked around him, he saw a stand that sold his favorite waffle. "Mommy, can I buy that?" ask Yuma.

"Oh, yes Mommy, I want that too" Yumi said, "Yuma, what if we split it together?"

"No, we share the three with Mommy" Yuma said.

"I won't be full, Yuma," Yumi said.

"Here we go, let's buy two" said Leana.

"Mommy, if there's no money, don't buy me. Just yumi," Yuma said again until Leana shook her head.

I don't know how heavy the injuries sustained by Yuma, until Yuma can be this mature, even though Yuma and Yumi are still children where their age should never think of anything. Now, however, Yuma and Yumi have to think about the life they will live in the future.

After that, they walked to the waffle stand and ordered. Without Leana, Yuma and Yumi realizing, someone saw them from afar.
