The Love I Don't Miss
Part 73 (Clarice is Right My Son? )

Mama Shinta vented all the emotions that were stirring in her chest. When in front of her own eyes there was someone who said the princess had done wrong, in the form of betrayal of her own husband. And accused of pregnant with another man's child, while still his wife.

What's worse is, who said it was nothing but his own ex-daughter-in-law.

Until finally he had to stand up from his seat and give a hard slap that he gave the first time for the former daughter-in-law. Who knows the stubborn man will realize afterwards.

Even so the tightness in the chest apparently has not reduced. Still continuing to howl, asking to be yelled at the former daughter-in-law.

"For over a year you thought my daughter meant nothing to you, and you took something that was meant only to humiliate my daughter! so now you're accusing my son of cheating?" mama Shinta asked with hardened teeth and a still rumbling chest. His old heart even still had to continue working hard to remain stable.

"What was that moment you didn't think? what did you do to her that would make her pregnant?" Mama Shinta continues to beat Zio with questions to open the mind of the damn man, thought Mama Shinta.

Zio still kept silent as he thought and digested every line of words that Mama Shinta said. Two thoughts continued to collide inside the head of the handsome widower.

Someone is trying to counter Mama Shinta's argument. Some people want to trust Mama Shinta. But at once he remembered, if Clarice was quite similar to Kenzo.

Zio glanced at Kenzo at a glance, to compare with the face of Clarice he knew.

"Are you not thinking, how is Calina's fate when she has to know her pregnancy after a divorce?" mama Shinta's voice continues to grow. "Are you not thinking! getting pregnant without a husband is the toughest thing a woman ever has?"

This time Zio turned to Mama Shinta. Staring at the face that has been filled with wrinkles. Even so the Mother of the Village Flower still looks beautiful natural, even without thick makeup.

"If what she's carrying is my son, and she's feeling really hard about being alone, why doesn't Calina ever look for me?" zio asked without looking at any of the people in the room. He just looked back down while enduring the turmoil within the chest.

Mama Shinta let out a heavy sigh, simultaneously throwing her gaze around for a moment. Then Mama Shinta sat back on her couch. Tired of giving an explanation to his handsome ex-daughter-in-law, smart but blo'on to the understanding of household relations.

Mama Shinta took a deep breath again, and greeted him slowly. He should reduce the emotions that burst in the chest. The self feels unwilling if you have to continuously express emotions. The heart is old. Do not let him have to die of a heart attack, due to his former son-in-law.

"Why is everyone quiet?" zio asked softly by looking one by one at the eyes in the living room.

"BECAUSE YOU'RE STUPID!" exclaim three people at once, with his own wrath - alone. So that the voice sounded very loud and loud in the living room Kenzo.

If in a relaxed moment maybe what Mama Shinta, Calina and Kenzo do will invite laughter. But in a serious moment like this actually makes the three shook their heads in wonder.

As for Zio himself, after getting an attack from three powers at once, he gasped in shock. Until his head retreated a little. Then he looked back one by one with astonishment.

"Where is my fool?" ask Zio.

Mama Shinta who was furious, finally got back on her feet. Approaching Zio, and then touching the tip of his index finger right on Zio's chest.

"This is where your stupidity lies!" mama Shinta said with great emphasis. With emotions starting to fade.

"Count back! When did you guys do that? When did you get divorced? And how old is Clarice now?"

Zio looked at Calina who instantly cast a glance in the other direction as soon as Zio's eyes reached his eyes.

Zio continued to look at Calina while recalling the moment. Where it all happened on the eve of the company party. Of course he did not forget Saturday night Sunday which is closest to the date of becoming a company.

While the celebration party will come back in about three months.

Zio continued to digest his logic. Keep weighing and looking for other evidence.

While in the heart Kenzo feels cold heat when she hears Mama Shinta remind Zio of when they did it.

And maybe it's more upsetting because they do, but he's the one who takes care of the results. Since being in the womb until the age of 5 years.

"You didn't lie to me, did you?" tanya Zio arrived - arrived. "Clarice is my son?" her question with the sound of money shaking resisted the emotional turmoil and hesitated.

"ZIIOOOO!" mama Shinta shouted angrily and annoyed right in the ears of Zio who was about to jump from the sofa where he was sitting.

"Zio's not deaf, Ma!" zio's protest rubbed his ears that felt nut due to the screams of the former Mama-in-law.

"If you're not deaf, you should be conscious by now!" grunting Mama Shinta.

"Where's Zio wrong, Ma?" ask Zio. "If being pregnant is an uphill battle she should be looking for me, right?" continued. "Not one of you told me anything about this. And I was thrown out of town. Until I have to fight to meet Zhika!" zio said firmly insinuating the punishment Kenzo gave him.

Mama Shinta and Calina looked at each other for a moment. Then Calina took a breath, preparing to answer.

"We just got divorced in a bad way - well, Mas. Of course I don't want to see you, not until when!" calina Sahut.

"Oh.." chuckles curiously. "Recarely that's the reason?" asked Zio with a sneering look. "Aren't you not looking for me, because there's already a big boss accompanying you? Who already considers our son as his son too!" Zio glanced cynically at Kenzo.

Instantly everyone became silent. Of course what Zio said has a point. But certainly not necessarily the main reason.

"What am I really saying?" zio asked as he threw his body back on the sofa.

"Clarice still needs Dad, Mom! And at that time I couldn't give it to you. Because I still hate you so much! And only Mas Kenzo - the only man who loved Clarice wholeheartedly! Like his own son!"

Zio smiled sinisterly half-myrically while bowing his head deeply. And that moment there was only silence.

Calina, Kenzo and Mama Shinta look at each other. As if asking why is he?

"Is that so sad about me?" mumbling itself. "It is necessary to serve such a painful and severe punishment... Divorced wife in a sorry state. Following the death of Naura... Until I was not given my right as a father to my own son." - she withered with a drop of tears that just fell.

Looking at the fallen circle, it made the other three feel full and guilty.

"I can't imagine if until we all meet at the office." she explained. "Most know if Calina is my ex-wife, then married to boss ki himself.." smiled wryly. "How shameful am I..."

"That's why Calina and Kenzo are hiding everything, Zio." replied Mama Shinta. "Calina won't show up before we're ready..."

"But why did Clarice have to appear in the office?" tanya Zio raised her head. "Everyone asks who his mother is! And as Clarice's birthday photo spread, it was as if I recognized her mother's unseen figure. It's just I don't know if it's Calina!"

Zio continued to lodge a protest that allowed Kenzo and Calina to only take a deep breath, and exhale slowly.

"Especially Clarice was very similar to her stepfather!" zio looked at Kenzo's frozen face. "How would anyone believe Clarice to be my child?"

The silence was re-created. It was all wonder why Clarice could look so much like Kenzo.

"One that is very similar to you, Mas.." said Calina suddenly.

Everyone turned to Calina, as if asking, what is similar about Calina to her?
