Young Mothers
Visitation
Al is now asleep next to Devano after he finishes his lunch. Now Devano and Ciara were talking.
"Aren't you continuing your lunch?" devano asked when he saw the food on the side nightstand was still very much left.
"Udah full. Later if you are hungry again I will eat again," replied Ciara.
"It's true that you are full, but if you look around you have only eaten 2 or 3 spoons" said Devano.
"I'm full because I saw you and Al eating earlier."
"That's just your excuse. Buruan eat gih. Or are you on a diet now?" ask Devano full of probes. Ciara who was stared at like that also revealed her smile.
"Ck, what's the diet for? your weight is also not obese. Normal-normal, really fitting even. So you do not need the name of all diets. You are so beautiful with everything you have right now" Devano said.
"More eating it. I don't want to see you sick" he continued.
"But Dev---"
"There's no buts. Eat now!" devano's orders without rebuttal.
"Ck ya-iya I continued eating it," said Ciara. After that he grabbed his lunch earlier and directly devoured it in front of Devano.
Devano who saw Ciara's cheeks filled with food was smiling anxiously. He wanted to pinch the cheek but he paled because food in Ciara's mouth could spurt out all.
When in the middle of lunch Ciara accompanied by the gaze of Devano's shady eyes, suddenly the door to the room in Devano's room opened and made the two people inside also turned towards the door.
When Devano saw who was visiting in his room, his body stiffened, his negative thoughts now filled his brain. As for Ciara, he seemed to put on a look of disappointment. Then he put his food that was still a little left back on the nightstand and after that he turned to look at Devano who was still staring at the two people who were slowly approaching them.
Ciara knew the worry that was in Devano's mind at this time and immediately he grabbed Devano's hand and then grasped it very tightly. When Devano felt the grip of the hand, he immediately saw the face of Ciara who was smiling at him as if he was saying "All will be well," through the beautiful eyes.
Devano is now a little calm. He is not afraid of what happened yesterday but he is only afraid that he will be separated from Ciara and Al, half his life, his world and his life.
"Good day Om and Aunt" said Devano while giving her best smile.
"Good day, too, Mr. Devano" he said.
"Ehemmm," dehem Ciara to break the increasingly awkward atmosphere.
"Why is Mama here?" ciara asked the two visiting people who were none other than her parents.
"Ci," called Devano who wouldn't allow Ciara to speak so loudly to her own parents.
But Ciara just ignored the call from Devano earlier and still looked at her parents. Lying if he is not angry with his parents, especially Papa Julian, which makes Devano almost lost his life forever.
"May I sit there?" asked Papa Julian who ignored the question from Ciara earlier while referring to the chair that was being used by the first child.
"Ah please Om" said Devano.
"Ci, you move for a while," Devano ordered.
"Ci, come on a second."
"No Dev." Devano sighed.
"Ciara," said Devano with great emphasis. Ciara clucked and finally he stood up from the chair but just shifted to the side without letting go of Devano's hand.
After Ciara moved, Papa Julian now moved up and sat on the seat right next to the Devano banker.
"May we speak only four eyes?" papa Julian asked by looking at Devano and Ciara's hands that were like they had been tied by a rope that would never be able to escape.
"If Papa wants to say yes just talk. Why four eyes? after all Cia also needs to know what Papa will talk to Dev later. Especially for anticipation," said Ciara ketus.
"Cia, don't do it. Not good," said Devano. Again Ciara only blicked her lips as Devano always advised her.
"Ciara," called Mama Mila while approaching Ciara who was still reluctant to look at the parents.
"We go out first baby," asked Mama Mila while stroking Ciara's arm.
"Is it hard to just talk about it? After all if it is very important and very secret, Cia will also keep her mouth shut and will not divulge your secrets," said Ciara still with his stance.
"Cia please," please Devano.
"No Dev."
"Just be a little. It won't take an hour, will it?" devano said with the end of asking Papa Julian who was immediately answered with a nod of his head.
"Okay, I'll give you two a four-eye talk but only 5 minutes. If it gets more Cia will go inside again. It doesn't matter what you're talking about and what Cia's gonna hear later, even if that secret leaks into someone else's ear, don't ever blame Cia," ciara said as she moved out of the room after releasing her hand.
"Geez the boy," muttered Mama Mila looking at Ciara's attitude like that. After that she rushed to Ciara to get out of the room to let her husband and Devano chat with each other without interference from others.
When the door was closed again, Devano tried to sit his body.
"You stay lying down!" papa Julian's orders.
Devano laid back his body just as Papa Julian had said.
"Sorry before Om, but there's Al. Does Al need to get out of this room too?" ask Devano.
"No need. Leave Al here and don't disturb his sleep" said Papa Julian.
Devano nodded his head. After that for a while there was no more talk. Devano wanted to open his voice first but he still felt awkward. It was Papa Julian who had intended to speak to him. It would be impolite if he asked first what Papa Julian would talk about. He also did not know Papa Julian's mood was still shrouded in a sense of high emotion or the emotion was gone. Fear if he misspoke later will add bruises on his face that already felt crushed.
"Arkhhhh what is this mood? it was awkward," Devano's mind that had begun to fidget as he occasionally glanced at Papa Julian who was staring at the peaceful face of Al.
"Are you sure you're Papa the birthblood of my grandson?" papa Julian asked suddenly which made Devano now turn his head, looked at Papa Julian's face then moved to Al's face. After that he smiled.
"I am very sure that I am indeed the real Papa of Al," Devano replied without the slightest hesitation.
