Affectionate call for the eldest brother.I'm in the kitchen I approached her, what's wrong? Wisnu has just woken up. After the morning prayer he slept again, he said he was still sleepy. Last night, after Mr. Kusuma lifted Amelia who had fallen asleep, he took Wisnu back upstairs.

Aunt have already made mango pudding," while pulling Amelia's hand. Amelia sat down, she was still busy on her phone."Here, you cut your pudding.

After physical training, cleaning, eating and then going back upstairs to practice for stage perform. Wisnu trained Amelia very hard. Especially, when the event less than two days.Mr. Kusuma was happy to see this, willingness from his daughter’s for struggling started to grow.What I hide from him, has known already. That night, when they were playing chess, Wisnu probed for information about us. Finally he found out, that we previously lived in Kuta, Bali and I graduated with Diploma for Interior Design who had worked in the property business.I cannot blame Wisnu, after all he spoke as it is. After all, one day it will definitely be known. And, surely Mr. Kusuma, who is an expert at digging up information, is not match for Wisnu, my son.Since then, I ha
I'm trying not to remember what happened yesterday. Likewise Wisnu, he never discussed it or just asked. He was being as if nothing had happened.He was more concerned training with Amelia upstairs. He said, tomorrow is the event at school.So does with Mr. Kusuma. He never asked what and why happened yesterday. He just asked, "When delivering papers to office, did you meet someone you know?""Meet Desi only. Nothing else," I answered like I didn't know what he meant. I'm sure he knows, that I ran from Bram. And, I'm sure he suspected that Bram was my ex-husband, Wisnu's father.After that, he did not discuss it again. He only got angry when he found out we were riding a motorbike there. He worried that there is anything on the road. After I explained, then he understood, with a note, do not repeat it again.Huuuft....Hoping of going on motorbike with Wisnu had gone. In fact, the purpose of bringing the motorbike here was for that, but instead the motorbike was sent back home by parc
Tonight, is a big night for Amelia.For the first time, she performed at an event attended by many people.Mr. Kusuma prepared a special time for this event. We are forbidden doing anything other than Amelia.So do I. I'm only allowed to cook in the morning, after that I have to accompany Amelia. Wisnu is no less busy, he has to prepare and ensure props for the stage. Nothing can go wrong, ordered Mr. Kusuma.Today, Mr. Kusuma returned from office early. He's been busy too. He was pacing up and down, in and out of Amelia's room like a bewildered man.I'm annoyed to see his attitude. Pacing back and forth, asking here and there but it's not clear what he's doing. Like just to cover up his panic. If his gesture known by Amelia's, she could feel her father doubting her abilities. And will make, her confidence will decrease.It can't be like this!I deliberately waited for him upstairs, in front of his room. He walked slightly down with his hands in his pockets while muttering as usual."
Meeting with Bram drained all my energy and emotions.I'm tired.I also relieved.All that pent up, thrown up all. We both try to make peace with destiny. This path must be the right one. So with Bram itself, He can live life without any shadow of guilt or regret. I know, he's a good man. His new family, too, would hope to have it intact.Wish you happiness.I have sincerely accepted what happened. It is the past that has become destiny and it only ends here.Coming out of the room, my steps felt light, my steps felt certain, nothing was blocking my heart. I already have hope, I've come back.Wisnu.He is now my goal.My son, mom is alive, again.***"Rani!"My name was called, I looked up.
