The Patriarchal Self
Cheper 1's

"I'll be there soon" said a man on his phone. Face that looks tired, but can not cover the handsome structure that is very visible.

"Mom doesn't have to pick me up! I'm no longer a child!" This time the man's voice sounded rather firm, the situation inside the noisy plane. Because of the sound of the machine, adding to the irritated feeling just like that.

"Mom's just worried about you, Sat."

The man took a deep breath, he understood the situation of the woman who was on the other side. That little attention, it sounded ordinary. However, it means a lot. Satria Lubis, who was the victim of the selfishness of her divorced parents, had to accept a tough life from childhood.

"Alright, Mom. Wait, I'm at the airport."

After saying that, a handsome man with a firm facial structure and a hard jaw. Disconnecting her phone, this time she will live with her mother Viktoria. Satria's destination was country X, where the woman lived.

While on the plane, Satria just stared out the window. He watched the clouds that kept changing every second, being in a broken home family. Making Satria Lubis a strong person, living with her father. Just making Satria a different person.

"When will I survive?" muttered Satria and started closing her eyes.

The journey by air by the man took almost 18 hours. From city Z to city X with a distance of several million kilometers, making the man have to prepare extra energy. Before meeting the woman who gave birth to him.

***

Time goes on, often with it. Not noticeably, the blue sky had now turned dark. Satria had reached the city X, the man dragged his suitcase and headed outside. He noticed the surroundings, looking for the whereabouts of the mother.

Until, the corner of Satria's eyes saw a woman who wrote her name with a big and screaming. He was a little surprised by his mother's very different changes, since their separation a few years ago.

"Mom!" shouted Satria and approached Viktoria. The woman hugged Satria tightly and shed tears, there was a feeling of longing that was implied from the look on her face.

"You're getting older? Do you have a girlfriend?"

Satria Hanay smiled slightly, responding to what her mother said. To a Satria Lubis, women are just troublesome creatures. He does not want to make a difficult relationship with a woman, because he has trauma over the divorce of his parents.

"Can I rest first, Mom?" pinta Satria distracts her mother and they walk away from the airport.

Satria frowned when she got into her mother's car. With the woman driving, she did not expect. After not meeting, not too much has changed for her mother. Not only in terms of face, now Victoria has a luxury car with a classic style.

"why?"

Satria stared at the mother who asked, without glancing at her at all.

"What's Mom working, now?" ask the curious Satria, for the last time. He found out that his mother worked as a merchant in a market by selling seafood.

However, Satria felt. No way, if his mother could buy a luxury car with the job.

"Indeed, why, Sat? Mom asked that, didn't she?"

Instead of answering the question, Victoria turned to ask. Make the man who is now sitting next to him turn the eyeball lazy.

Satria was silent, she was lazy to answer the mother's question. Because, he had been unemployed for a long time.

"Deddymu said, if .. do you need a job?"

The sudden statement said by the mother, caught Satria's attention and looked back at the woman nanar. With an unbelieving feeling.

"What? Deddy still want to hook up with, Mom?"

A sensitive question, made Victoria silent a thousand languages. He would only exchange news with his father Satria. If, only the son.

Silence is created, they are both silent with their own thoughts. Until, the car driven by Victoria entered the yard of a very spacious and magnificent house. Satria amazed and did not expect, if his mother would take him to the place.

"It's the Cooper family home, Mom works here. As the Cooper family's nanny, Mom will get you in. To be able to work here."

After explaining that, Victoria got out of the car and was followed by Satria by dragging her suitcase.

"Good morning, Mother Victoria," said a well-dressed man.

"Good morning, sir. Incidentally, the person I was telling you about has come," Victoria explained and introduced Satria. As, the new driver for Alice's daughter.

However, the woman did not explain her status with Satria and handed her son over to the head of the house.

"Thank you, Miss Vitcoria. I'll take over from here" the man explained and walked slowly.

Victoria asked Satria to follow the head of the house, as a mother. The woman just wanted her son to always be in the eye.

Satria who continued to follow the steps of the man before her, accidentally saw a beautiful girl who was playing with a sword in a room.

Sat

Sat

The sound of the sword continuing to rub against him, made Satria stop her steps and look in amazement at the girl.

Until, he didn't realize. If, the head of the house had disappeared from his sight. Until a man's voice rebuked him.

"Who are you?"

Satria immediately looked at the person who spoke, visible from the way he wore. The man who was now staring at him with unfriendly eyes. Not just anyone.

"I—"

"What's up, Dad?"

Satria's voice choked on her neck, when she heard the voice of the girl she had previously admired speak by saying something that made her body freeze instantly.

"Who is he?" This time, the question was asked by the man. To the beautiful girl who walked over.

Satria's body is freezing, just breathing. The man felt difficulty, as if an asmofir change was happening.

"Maybe, he's the new bodyguard."

Satria loosened her head and looked at the girl, to her surprise at the words spoken by her.

"Guard, new?"

The sentence continued to revolve in Satria's mind, until the voice of the head of the house came and immediately scolded him.

"Satria! No, what! You are so sassy!"

A voice filled with emotion, then the head of the house apologized to the man who was still standing in front of Satria.

"I'm sorry for my carelessness, sir."

From what the head of the house said, stating it clearly. If, the man is the master who is the owner of this house.

"I don't mind! Provided, he is," he said by referring to Satria.

"Not blessed, my daughter," he added, and passed by with the girl whom Satria had admired before.

"If you don't want your head to separate from your body? Then, don't approach princess Alice!" threaten the head of the house.

"So, her name is Alice?" inner Satria.
