Everyone gasped in shock when they heard Ezra's words, especially Evan who was now looking at his son with a nyalang.
"Why, I'm not wrong, right?" ezra continued with cynicism.
Evan clenched his hands tightly together to endure the tightness within his chest, how painful and devastated the feeling he had due to the speech of his own biological son.
The swing that was behind Ezra also looked at his son with nanar. He knew that Ezra hated Evan so much, but it was not good to say such a thing in the presence of so many people like this. Especially in the presence of Adel, he was afraid to make the bond between father and son between them even more broken.
"Ezra-" Ayun was unable to continue with her words when suddenly her hand was held by Fathir, she turned to the man with a look of surprise and surprise.
Fathir shook his head as he was stared at by Ayun, as if giving a signal that the woman should not continue what she wanted to say.
Swing could only sigh violently as he understood what the gesture Fathir had given him meant, but he did not let go of the man's hand, nor did Fathir.
"Why are you saying that, son? I never thought at all what you said. I want to meet and talk to you because I miss you so much and your sister, I really have no other intention than that" Evan said bitterly, his voice even sounded trembling as it endured the pain within the recesses of his heart.
Ezra laughed when he heard his father's words. A miss? Was his father wrong? Since when did his father have such feelings for them, and why is it that he now feels homesick after a long time? It doesn't make any sense.
"Have it, don't say anything that doesn't make sense. Our time is too precious to serve your words," said Ezra with sarcasm, making Evan's heartbreak even more dim.
Evan was silent. Was it so much hate in his son's heart that he couldn't believe what he was saying? It really feels very painful to be slashed by the devil.
Adel who had been looking down silently seemed to clench his hands tightly. Hate, anger, and pity were mixed into one in his heart.
He was really angry and hated the father, but his chest was also painful when he heard his brother's sharp words and sarcasm for their father, to cultivate a great pity.
"That's enough, son. Come on, let's go home!" Swing who could not bear to hear it turned to invite them all to go home, he did not want Ezra increasingly act out of control on his own biological father.
"Yes, Mom," said Ezra. He took her by the hand and took her away from the place without saying anything, no matter if their father was currently staring with sadness.
Adel just nodded and followed the steps of the brother, as well as Faiz who chose to go too even though his father and Ayun still did not leave the place.
"Wait for Ezra, Adel. Please listen to me"
"Mas!"
Evan who had turned around and was about to chase Ezra and Adel did not step his foot when he heard Ayun's call, he then turned back and looked at the woman.
Deg.
Both of Evan's eyes heated up when he saw the scene before him. How not, at this time he saw that Ayun and Fathir were holding hands tightly. Did they do it intentionally?
Seeing Evan's sharp gaze towards his hand, making Ayun also take a glance down, and how surprised he was when he only realized if he was still holding each other tightly with Fathir.
Quickly, Ayun released the hand grip that made Fathir jumped in shock and also only realized that since then he had not released his hand grip.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it" Fathir stuttered.
Ayun's face turned red with what happened, she felt dejavu with the incident just a moment ago. Why could he not control himself at all when he was with Fathir? Though all this time he had never experienced anything like this, even when together with Evan.
"Ti-it's okay," said Ayun nervously. His chest again thumped tight until it made his breath become tight.
Evan who is still in that place is getting inflamed. His chest rumbled violently like it was about to explode right now, even his jaw had already hardened since earlier.
Swing frowned as he did not understand what Evan was saying, but forget about it.
"I'm sorry if I call you, Mom. I don't mean to get in your way with the kids, it's just that maybe they need time to control themselves" Ayun replied, not wanting them to hurt each other.
Evan smiled cynically. "really?" He asked sharply. "Those who need self-control, or you who want to deliberately show your affection with other men in front of me?"
Swing was astonished when he heard it, as well as Fathir who was inexhaustible as to why Evan could say that.
"What do you mean?" ask Swing sharply.
Evan screeches. "Huggling and holding hands with a man in public, even in front of your own children. Is that the right thing for a woman to do?" evan said with sarcasm. "Especially you have no ties whatsoever, do you not feel ashamed?" He glanced towards Fathir cynically.
Swing shook his head inexhaustibly, who is it that makes fun of it? He and Fathir just accidentally did it, and why would Evan know all that?
"No, I don't feel ashamed at all," Fathir replied suddenly making Ayun immediately turn her head towards him, while Evan looked more and more at her with wrath.
"What do you say, you don't feel ashamed?" evan exclaimed with a tone of voice that began to rise. "You've given a bad view to my kids, how could you not be self-conscious, huh?"
Fathir smiled faintly, while Ayun began to feel uneasy. "Then have you given them a good view?"
"W-what?"
"Don't be too busy with other people's business to forget about yourself," said Fathir quickly, he then turned to look at Ayun who had been looking at him since. "Again, what happened earlier was an accident. And if it was on purpose, then I had intentionally done all that. I can't let go of someone who's already making my chest pound, do you have any objections?" He turned back to look at Evan.
Evan fell silent and could not reply to Fathir's words, if he could he was eager to throw a punch to the man's face.
Swing himself was also fixated on what Fathir had said. Someone who's already made that man's chest pound? Is Fathir talking about it, but why?
"Oh my God, what exactly is going on? Why is Fathir saying that, does he keep a feeling for me?" Swing clenched his hands tightly together to hold something that was creeping through his heart.
"I don't care about you at all, I just don't want you to make a bad impact on my kids. So get out of their lives and don't bother them anymore!" sahut Evan with full emphasis after being able to examine himself.
Swing immediately looked at Evan in disbelief. "For what reason did you say such a thing to Fathir?" He asked sharply.
"I'm their real father, so I know better which one"
"Yes, you're their real father. But that doesn't mean you can act like this to Fathir, because he's been with them all along. You should be thanking him, because thanks to his pity, your two children can laugh as cheerfully as before" said Ayun with excitement, he was really angry if Evan behaved like that to Fathir.
"Then, what about you? Does my concern also make you laugh again?"
