When I Meet You

When I Meet You
23: A Statement of Love?


Nayra's third day in the hospital, the little girl was already back as cheerful as before. Maybe, after being declared allowed to go home by doctor—Kaivan will definitely take him home soon.


Currently, Nayra is being fed fresh mango by Naya. How greedy he ate, already indicates if Nayra has recovered from her pain.


"Mama Naya is happy that Nayra is healthy again, let alone eating a lot of kayak gini." Naya rubbed Nayra's shoulder-length hair with her one free hand holding nothing.


"Mama Naya, Mama Naya can't afford to stay in Nayla huh," Nayra said suddenly, just so that it made Naya frown confused.


"Why did Nayra suddenly say that, hm? Mama Naya will continue to exist for Nayra, will not leave Nayra." Nayra was made to comment on the smile with the words of Naya, the little girl then wrapped her hands to Naya's body to hug.


"Just Mama Naya can't be like Nayla's real mama, who says Nayla's father is a baby." Hearing a child as small as Nayra who said that, really made Naya feel pain. Died since infancy, a child who should have gotten attention or even a warm hug from his mother—just didn't get it.


Given how hard life was on Nayra, Naya rubbed the little girl's cheeks feelingly. Nayra looked at him gently, without ever judging.


"Even though Mama Nayra stayin Nayra from the baby, but if you later meet—Nayra must remain polite yes same to him. Because after all, Nayra's biological mother had been Nayra's birth for nine months, continuing to bet her life also to give birth to Nayra to the world. So, Nayra should still respect Nayra's birth mother." Naya knows, it is not easy for a child like Nayra—let alone the little girl has been told if her mother left her when she was a baby. But after all, his mother is still a biological mother who deserves respect. As much as possible, Naya will instill respect in Nayra's heart in her mother.


"But the oma said, Nayla's mama was evil. The proof is that he lives in Nayla in a baby" Nayra said, again heartbreaking Naya.


Moved slowly Nayra's head, Naya could feel the loneliness that Nayra had been feeling. Seeing how the gaze begged her not to do the same as her mother Nayra, Naya got carried away.


The 25-year-old girl glazed over, without waiting any longer—her tears just dripped. About Nayra's request that she didn't want to leave as well, Naya might be able to answer that now, but not later. Naya doesn't know, until when she'll be Nayra's nanny. If Kaivan is bored in the future, there is a possibility that he can be fired, right? Or if Naya made a mistake, she would definitely be fired right? Or if there is a great opportunity for Naya to achieve her goals?


But even so, Naya promised that— would remain patient with Nayra even though she was no longer the babysitter of the little girl.


"Mama Naya why cry?" Nayra asked as she wiped the tears that had descended on Naya's cheeks.


Just in a moment, Naya shook her head. He was unable to explain everything.


"Mama Naya is okay, just touched by Nayra who does not want Mama Naya to go."


Apparently, the conversation of two women of different ages was—again and again heard by Kaivan who did not go in and just peeked at the door gap. How about it clear Nayra asked Naya to stay by her side, making Kaivan worry half to death.


"We're home, pretty boy!" Upon entering the room, Kaivan deliberately reviewed a big smile to welcome his daughter.


"Nayla can go home, Pa?" asked Nayra who was immediately embraced by Kaivan.


"Asyikk, I can finally go home too."


"Yaudah, let's get ready. We go home" said Naya, who then moves to clean up Nayra's needs into the bag.


***


When this night has come to greet, the flickering stars above there add to the beauty of this night. At 23:00 WIB like this, Naya was difficult to fall asleep. And finally choose to find tranquility by relaxing in the backyard—more precisely on the edge of the pool.


Naya can't swim, but that doesn't mean she's afraid of the water. Just to dangle a leg like this, did not scare him at all.


"Aren't you afraid of drowning like yesterday?" Naya turns her head, and gets Kaivan to dangle his foot into the pool after the man takes a seat right next to her.


"Sir Kaivan what's here?" ask Naya.


One eyebrow Kaivan went up and asked. "Who forbade me to come here? This is my home" Kaivan said.


Naya grimaced softly with Kaivan's words.


"Yes, this is my house. I'm just wondering, why are you here at night, you don't sleep?" ask Naya.


Instead of answering, Kaivan asked back. "You yourself, what's the matter here? Not asleep?"


"My insomnia sometimes relapses, so I need calm. So come here" answered Naya, who made Kaivan nod his head.


There was a moment of silence between the two of them, there was only a faint sound of breathing from the two.


"Naya," call Kaivan suddenly. And Naya responded with a slow deheman.


"Are your words to Nayra in the hospital true?" Naya turned her face to Kaivan as the man asked.


"Which one, sir?" ask Naya.


"Your word that she said would not leave Nayra like her mother." Naya just remembered it, then nodded her head slowly.


"Maybe for now, I can promise not to leave Nayra. But someday, I can't promise."


"Why?" asked Kaivan curiously.


"Can I make a fatal mistake that causes you to fire me, or Mr. Bosen see my face—terus Mr. fired me. Or maybe, I get the opportunity to achieve my goal of becoming a chef. But I promise, even if I am no longer a Nayra— nanny I will not forget her. I'll keep the news, maybe over the phone." Hearing Naya's words, Kaivan convinces her to say something to the woman.


"Naya," call Kaivan again.


"Yes, Sir?" At that moment, Kaivan turned his body 90° to face Naya. The woman's hand fell, she looked at the woman with a gaze that made Naya freeze.


"When I met you, there was a rustling feeling that I couldn't explain right then and there. But one that I realized, only you can make my feelings ripple just like that. Naya .. If I say, I like you, do you believe me?" During this 25-year life, Naya never found this thrilling statement of love. How he who is looked at with love, even with his hands that have been gently grasped.


"Don't fall in love with me, sir. I am like the heavens and the earth, if I am the same Father."
