THE NIGHT THAT MISSES THE SKY

THE NIGHT THAT MISSES THE SKY
Chapters 17. Fruit of my Heart, Rainbow.


Dusk had just reached home at six in the afternoon after finishing all his office work, it felt like his body was very tired at the moment. But when he got home he could not show that he was tired. Because his favorite daughter will worry about him.


The woman with the light blue veil had just stepped onto the doorway, she had suddenly received a welcome from her little daughter.


"Mother is home?" The six-year-old named Rainbow ran a little towards Dusk while stretching out his arms.


Seeing it made the sense of tired twilight as if it instantly disappeared. The rainbow always made her smile. Lovingly the woman crouched down to welcome the Rainbow into her arms.


"Mother's son is very pretty," praised Dusk while gently rubbing the back of his daughter's head.


"Yes, dong."


"So home with Daddy, huh?" ask Dusk. The rainbow only nodded its head in response. He was afraid that his mother was angry because she asked Doctor Surya to pick him up.


After that, Dusk unraveled his embrace. This time he saw the tiny face of the Rainbow, at a glance he could see the face of the Sky there. Let alone the little boy's eyes, just like the Sky's eyes. In that silence, Dusk again had a wishful thinking that he had always wanted. If only Heaven had not left him abroad at that time, maybe now they had become a very harmonious small family.


Rainbows will also get affection from a father, but all that never happens. Only Dusk took care of Rainbow since the baby until now he was six years old.


"Mother, I'm hungry. Let's eat." The rainbow's words immediately made the Dusk Daydream crumble. The woman blinked three times, then nodded.


"Yes, honey. Mommy takes a bath first, after that food angelin, and we eat together. Okay?"


"OK, Mommy."


Dusk immediately stood up from his crouching position. He went straight into the room and cleaned himself, while Rainbow chose to watch TV while waiting for his mother to finish cleaning herself.


Rainbows are always taught independently with Dusk since childhood, it's like Rainbows are not spoiled if you have to be home alone. He understood that Dusk was working to find him money for his school fees.


After a while, Dusk was finally over. It did not take long for him to clean up, if it was too long Dusk felt sorry for the Rainbow because the little boy was already hungry. Hurry her straight to the kitchen and warm up the food she cooked this morning.


The rainbow that saw Dusk was already in the kitchen instantly turned off the TV, then the little boy switched to sitting at the dining table, ready to eat. She smiled to herself looking at her busy mother in the kitchen. Rainbows really like to see Dusk cook.


"Separ yes, dear," said Dusk because it felt bad to make his daughter have to wait.


"Yes, Mother. Just relax don't have to rush that, I'm ready to wait, all right."


Hearing the answer from the princess, Dusk smiled. The rainbow always understood itself.


Finished warming up all the dishes, Dusk immediately arranged them on the dining table. Tanpak face Rainbow increasingly eager to immediately eat the dishes that have been prepared by the mother. Dusk was very happy because he was still given the opportunity to eat with his son, sometimes he came home a little late and Rainbow had eaten first.


They both ate in silence, there was only the sound of spoons and plates clashing together. Dusk does get the rainbow to eat quietly and not talk much, the little boy always absorbs the teachings of Dusk very well.

Dusk and Rainbow had finally finished their meal. At this time Dusk was washing dishes, while his baby was already in front of the TV again. This time he did not see the cartoon, but rather was busy with his textbooks, it was time for him to learn.


"There's only one mother" replied Rainbow, busily alone with her books.


Dusk just nodded in response, which meant that he had to finish his work immediately and accompany Rainbow to work on his PR. When finished, Dusk immediately approached his son who was sitting on the floor facing the small table in front of him.


"What is PR? Do you want to help?" The sun sits next to the rainbow. He noticed what his daughter was doing.


"Pr is just drawing. Mommy will help me choose the color only if I will already color, if the problem of the picture I can alone," replied Rainbow with enthusiasm. Then he began to open his slow book and prepared to draw.


"Okay, little boss."


Dusk continued to see what the Rainbow was drawing, the little boy looked very meticulous while drawing. Seeing that suddenly Dusk remembered the Sky, the man also always did his work very carefully. It turned out that it decreased to his son, if only Heaven knew about this matter it would be very happy.


In silence Dusk again remembered what the Sky told him when in the garden earlier. For some reason the memory keeps playing in the head of the twilight like a movie cassette.


"Can't we repeat our story like we used to, Dusk?"


"Didn't you miss the memories of the two of us?"


"Please forgive me, let's start again our story as it used to be."


"Aren't you going to be with me again?"


The sentence kept repeating itself in the mind of Dusk. If only he could be honest at that time, maybe Dusk would answer that he also misses the sky very much and wants to return like before. But, Dusk can't do that. He still could not forget the bitter memories he had once experienced when left gone by the Heavens.


What else does Dusk just know, if his parents Sky participate in their separation. It made Dusk more hesitant to tell the truth, about the existence of the Rainbow, he was afraid that it would make him and his son later separated.


Dusk decided to hide everything, for six years he had been able to be independent, but why was it that when Heaven came he had to be weak? That was why he wanted to become stronger and would now keep his distance from the Sky in order to avoid misunderstanding.


"Mother," call Rainbow for the third time because Dusk has not been able to hear the call.


"Well, why, baby?"


"Mother why bother? I have called from earlier. The picture I'm done, now it's just a warning." The rainbow shows the result of his image at Dusk. "This is a family picture. Here is me, mother, the same. Actually I want my picture to be the same mother, but the task this time must draw the perfect family. So I added a picture of this man" explained Rainbow.


Dusk was silent at his daughter's words. Not just once did Rainbow ask about his father.


"Mother, I want a picture of Daddy Surya but, said Mother Daddy is not my father. So I'm just adding my father from my shadow."


Hearing that made Dusk's heart a little bitter, if only he could tell Rainbow that his father was still there. But for now he can't say that.


"Your picture is really good," praised Dusk as he held his two thumbs up.
