Daughter of the Widower: The Single Daddy'S Daughter
#3 Unsatisfied Meetings

I don't know since when the atmosphere here turned awkward. Me and a handsome man in front of me did not twitch in the slightest. As if he saw the ancient life that was still plastered in front of him.

My curious shoots are growing very fast. Oh, it turns out there's a handsome guy besides a handsome uncle in this house. Why have I never seen him?

All the memories of the little Rasyi were hard on my head. People in this house should be there.. four housekeepers plus four ‘babysitter exclusive’. Then who is he? Is there anything I missed?

“Hah..” fretting his heavy voice revealed a cold sweat that slid down.

For a long time, he finally raised his gaze and took her in another direction. He seemed to be afraid of something in my 'inside', which I wasn't sure what it was. Like I have something dangerous.

The traceability of the memories in my head continued even though she realized my gaze was still clingy as if the two magnetic poles were opposites. Duh. Nervous as well still looks handsome. I call you handsome brother deh~

Then, what am I supposed to do now? Trying to speak to her in baby language? Just try?

“Naeemma aaa! Emmu eppa?” i'm Rasyi! You who?

He jerks. Not a word came out of his mouth.

I point at his face with my fingers still fat, “Eumu eppa? Aaa mmaa da!” you who? Rasyi wants to know!

His face was still surprised. Sweat could still be seen on his face even though it was not as stiff as before.

“Naeemma eumu eppa!” I still show her face, “Naeemma eumu!”

Duh. Aye, yes. You don't understand what I'm saying, do you? Never mind. I surrender! Talking like this will only wrap my poor tongue around.

“What were you...,” he bent his legs squatting surprised me. “Means my name?”

... ho? Hooo!! He understands! He's hamanaam!!

“Nal! Nal!” aye! Aye! I asked that just now.

Whaaa!! The brain of a handsome brother is very meritorious! He can understand even my speaking style is like a dinosaur who has just one month of learning Indonesian! Very smart brother!

“I don't remember a baby boy being able to talk so.” his forehead shriveled.

His words seemed to doubt that I was a baby. Although his voice was beautiful to hear, but his tone still pressed my heart. How else would you like? My consciousness has been there since birth. I can't act like a baby.

“Aa and ndaah!” Rasyi is smart~

He did not open his mouth at all. I am very happy that he lost. Instantly his long legs straightened his body.

“Where all the HRD was up to let the baby walk around at will.” steps he wanted to stay away.

Ahh!! Want what?! Don't call anyone! Don't call a maid aunt! They'll hand me over to Ira! There are still so many places to explore!

“Anaaaan!” I started crawling after him.

Yoke!

Heh? Whatisit? I opened my eyes trying to look at my nose. Uh... The spider!! Spiders in my nose!!

Unknowingly I was crying! I can't help it. Since childhood, the Sekar most afraid of spiders. There is no way I can pretend to be brave while the nature of Sekar is still carried away! My tears didn't stop even though I realized someone was lifting me up.

A soft handkerchief came up my nose. What already? I'll open my eyes. Looks like a handsome brother's face is very close. Panic adorned his face.

“Ba-ba from nnan?” the profits are gone?

“Already lost kok.” his calm voice stopped my crying.

I'm totally screwed. I didn't think I'd cry like this. I am very proud to be a baby who rarely cries.

My hands cleaned my face. Crying like this makes me uncomfortable. My face feels very irregular. My head hurts, my eyes hurt too. Instantly a hand held my wrist away from my eyes.

“I think it's time for you to sleep.” the whisper echoed in my ear along with his hand wiping the side of my eye.

Not like before. His expression looked very calm. The distance of our faces is no more than one inch. I can't stop my heart from asking, who is this amazing man?

Maybe I feel something else from this guy. The fact that this was just our first meeting couldn't shake the feeling that we were connected. It's not like I'm staring at a guy I like. It feels so different.

That voice... Ira? I raised my head to look at him. His face was so anxious that it seemed to want to cry.

“Thank God you're okay!” his touch held my cheek.

My body was immediately transferred to Ira's sling. I felt so eager to hug the mature woman who still had that long future. As if his own family, his warm embrace spread throughout my senses.

“So aunt heard Rasyi crying. Rasyi is okay, right?” his anxious face could not stop me feeling guilty had gone unbeknownst to him.

“Aaa from ppa!” Rasyi is okay.

Ira smiled sweetly. The glance of the eyes that followed his hand slowly showed a toy being carried by him. Cute rubber decorated cat toys that are familiar with the quality. I took my toy.

The figure of the handsome man caught my eyes stepping away. Eh? Is he going?

“No need to go in a hurry so right?” Ira turned her body towards the older brother.

The man's steps were fixed in his place. My brain couldn't catch what 'show' was going on in front of me. What relationship do they have?

The calm gaze of the handsome brother looked straight at Ira. His mouth was not excited to take out even a single word.

“At least...,” Ira steps closer, “You... Can I say hello first, right?” Ira glanced at me softly.

Huh huh? Wipe me? We have a certain need to greet each other? It's not that I don't want to. I really wanted to know who he was from the beginning I saw him. However, it feels like there is a special reason that I have not caught from their words.

The handsome brother moved his pupils towards me, “Not necessarily right?”

As if I wanted to come looking for answers, I couldn't control my head to bring my eyes to Ira.

Ira looks so sad, “Rizki... Rashi is your son.” Ira's grief is spread.

Heh? Is that my dad? This guy in front of me?

Ira hugged me again, “We can't possibly continue to take care of Rasyi. You have to take care of it yourself.”

Why...―must I be happy? No. gabe. I'm restless. Very quaint. Could it be because I have never had parents before?

Whether or not there are parents shouldn't be a problem for me. A life without parents I've faced before. Whatever the end of this conversation will not affect me.

But...why do I hesitate?.. do I expect it—

“Rizki, please. At least try first⏤”

“No!” the handsome man's scream surprised me.

What does ‘not’ mean? This silent atmosphere was truly stifling. No one speaks at all. Ira was only communicating with the tremors of her hand that was still holding me.

“Begin only...,” the man's mouth is still in doubt, “... I will send him to the orphanage.”

... Huh huh?

“Rizki!” Ira approached him again.

Her hand blocked Ira from approaching, “leave her in her room. I'll take care of the rest.”

Huh huh? Her... Dumped me?

So this is my destiny? Can't I escape my destiny as a child with no parents since infancy? It could be that this destiny will follow me even if it has been reborn a thousand times. Hah, this is called a curse.

Reborn? I was born again, really? It's easier to believe that I was sent back in time. It was as if I was given a chance to see how stupid my parents used to be. How bad they just threw me away.

Lookit. They both fought. No debate can be heard. Nope. I myself do not want to hear it anymore. This debate can't change anything that's been permanently stuck in my brain. My own father doesn't want me.

Repugn.

PRAK!

My toy floated right in the face of that selfless papa.
