When I Meet You
8: The Dark Story of a Kaivan
Shaking her head, that's what Naya did when she was suddenly surrounded by mothers when she was going to pick Nayra up at her school. How many pairs of eyes looked at him with a look of disbelief, judgment, even with a look of admiration.
"I'm sorry, ladies, I'm going to pick up Nayra first. It's Nayra!" naya said as her eyeballs caught Nayra's presence walking towards her.
The girl waved one hand into the air, not forgetting also with a sweet smile and sparkling gaze.
"Right, you're not Nayra's new mama?" Naya grimaced as there were already three guardians of students who asked her status.
"No, Ma. I am this just—"
"Mama!" Naya did not have time to answer, Nayra came with a small run and hugged her body while muttering a word that made the mothers turn wide.
"Nayra, is this your new mama?" ask the other students. A woman who Naya was not far from was looking at Naya cynically when she asked Nayra.
"Yes, this is my mother. Pretty, right?" Nayra grabbed Naya's hand and kissed the back of her hand with reverence.
"Nayla has not salim the same Mama," said Nayra who increasingly made Naya grimace softly. Now, if it's like this. Explaining who she is is of no use, because the mothers believe more in Nayra than she does.
"Beautiful, but I'm cute" chirped the mothers who were staring at him cynically earlier.
"Later I ask papa to buy you a mama's shirt." Nayra retaliated fiercely.
Seeing that the mothers are getting teased with him, Naya pulls Nayra's arm to bring her home.
"We're home, baby." Naya then looked at the mothers with both hands cupped in front of the chest.
"Mom-mother, I'm sorry I couldn't stay for long. So I'm the same Nayra has to go home," said Naya then brought with her Nayra to get in the car.
After the car leaves Nayra's school, Naya escapes a rough breath. Being cornered like that, it was like he was caught stealing. Really stressful.
"Nayra, why did Nayra say that this aunt is Nayra's mother? Aunty does allow Nayra to call this aunt mama, but if in public place kayak was—call aunty aja, dear. Aunty just doesn't want them to think bad to Auntie. Especially to say that Aunt is the actor because it disturbs papa with her mother Nayra."
"Tante Naya, papa is dulen if said om Alsa. So, even if Aunt Digosipin kayak was—mama Nayla would not even. After all, Nayla's mom doesn't exist. Don't know where," Nayra replied with her slurred voice.
"Duren what is it, Nayra?" naya didn't understand.
"So Nayra's papa is duren? Aka duda cool?" tanya Naya who was immediately embraced by Nayra.
Speaking of cool, Naya did admit—if her new employer was perfect. Which woman doesn't like Kaivan? Himself, when he first met—difficulty regulating his heartbeat. Especially after this morning.
Ah shit! Naya recalled the incident this morning. A very embarrassing incident.
While on the other hand, Kaivan stretched his waist after he finished signing the company files that amounted to quite a lot.
The man who is currently alone in his room opened the phone, right on the main screen of his phone is a photo of his wedding with Indira. How in the photo he embraces the waist of the wife, then the head is slightly lowered because it is peeping the left cheek of Indira.
Although he claimed to have moved on, but it is not that easy that the memories with Indira are lost. Moreover, Indira suddenly left him first.
In the past, when Nayra was a baby— and on that day Indira left, Kaivan had lost control of himself for several months. Nayra was taken care of by her mother.
But after that bad period, Kaivan rose again for the sake of the princess. Although his soulmate left, but there was still another soulmate he needed to be happy with.
"It's not just me who's hurt here Indira, but our daughter too. Because of your selfishness, our daughter is the victim. If you can be patient a little more and wait for me to succeed, maybe Nayra can grow up well under your supervision as her mother." Whenever Nayra remembers growing up without a mother figure, Kaivan always feels claustrophobic in the heart. A child who should be from a baby feels the warmth of a mother's embrace, even with the attention of a mother—but her daughter does not get it all.
And after Nayra was convicted of lupus, make no mistake if she had almost killed herself—because tired of the universe that continues to play tricks on her.
"Now, I don't expect us to be united again Indira. Because like my principle, once I let go—then that person will find it hard to gain second trust. All I hope is that you go back and see Nayra. Our daughter has always wanted to meet her mother. He wants to see what his mother looks like, not what I saw from the photo 5 years ago." Kaivan rubbed the corner of his watery eyes, it was really tight to be Nayra. If he had been desperate to plunge himself into the river, Nayra's life might have been even more difficult.
One of the reasons Kaivan did not open his heart was because Nayra, his daughter needed a mother who really loved him. Not just loving himself as the father of Nayra. Kaivan does not want, there is a figure of Indira in the next life if he is in love with women carelessly. For the sake of her own happiness, the heart to leave her infant daughter.
"****!" Kaivan hits his desk, every time he remembers about Indira— his feelings of anger and sadness always manage to overwhelm him.
No, he was never wrong in their relationship. All happened because of the selfishness of Indira who is obsessed with becoming an international model. One of Kaivan's faults is just one, too blind to love Indira. So that when he was used just because he had a handsome look, he just wanted to.
Yep! Kaivan was not as successful now, nor as cool as it is now. He used to be just an ordinary employee who had a plus look charming. Much different from Indira who has been a model.
Kaivan has loved Indira for a long time, because they were friends during college. I don't know about Indira.
They can marry because Indira begged Kaivan to marry her, because the future husband who was going to marry Indira ran away with her affair. Because it was all prepared, Indira did not want to lose and finally chose Kaivan as a substitute bride.
