The Pride of an Ex
episode 10's
"We haven't been trusted for that, Al. Pray yes, as soon as I and Miss can bring a little angel into this house."
I nodded weakly with a faint smile. Looking towards the face of Miss who looked down lethargic.
"Sorry, my brother.."
"It's okay, Al. Relax, we relax too. Yes, dear," said bang Aldi hugged his wife's shoulder.
Relax, anyway. However, seeing the hue of my sister's face misses me unpleasantly. Feeling guilty for asking the child to a couple who are struggling to get it.
Far from them, it makes me not know how the life of my own brother is not as lucky as me.
However, I am very sure that bang Aldi is not the type of man like Nathan who because his wife gave birth to a daughter, then decided to marry again for the sake of a son.
Ah why should I compare my brother to him too, anyway. Yes, it will be very different for sure.

"Papa told me everything, Al. Sad when you found out you were dumped by Nathan. But. there is a pleasure too, because you can finally return to us. Especially on Papa who was very bad when you chose to go with the man."
I sip the sweet tea on the table. Seeing the pool filled with toys after Seila played there with Papa.
"I'm a bad boy, bang?" real speech does not require an answer. Because that is the truth.
"I don't know a devinisi an ungodly child is anything. All I ever heard, if a parent has forgiven the sins of his child, then God will forgive," said bang Aldi turned to me.
I took a deep breath, exhaling violently while nodding my head.
"Now it is time for you to be filial. Follow what you want Papa."
"What does Papa want?" asked me to return the thin-floated man's gaze.
"Yes, kink. Yes, that's it. You obey them, do not rebel anymore."
I didn't answer. Choose to quietly enjoy sweet tea while looking at the sky that began to blacken.
The fragrant smell of jasmine flowers makes me want to pick white flowers in a small garden by the pool.
I got up from the chair, walked around the pool and picked two blooming jasmine flowers.
Bring it to its original place, then put it into a ceramic cup containing sweet tea. Sip it again, enjoy the fragrant and sweet that calms the soul.
I haven't enjoyed this atmosphere in a long time. Longing to go back in time to strike back. The mischievous running hummed cheerfully exploring the small garden in the corner there. Chasing after the beautiful butterflies that fly and perch on every flower petals that bloom gives off a fresh scent.
"Al, uh,"
"Yes, Mah!"
"Yes, Mah!"
We answered together to make Mama close her mouth round her eyes.
"Forgot, if there are two 'Al' in this house" he said approaching us.
Kiss next to my cheek, then turn to bang Aldi's cheek.
"Try looking here. Mama needs your opinion on AB Garment's birthday party."
Mama keeps a book with pictures of party decorations in a fancy building. I scratched my eyebrows, not knowing what to give my opinion.
"Who do you think is good?"
"It."
"It."
Me and bang Aldi pointed at a different picture.
Mama clucked. "Not compact anyway? the origin of the answer. According to Mama, yes this bagusan dong. Look, it's so pretty and luxurious. It's a great fit, for our corporate anniversary party."
Me and bang Aldi looked at each other with a shoulder to shoulder. My mom still hasn't changed. Asking for our opinion just to find an excuse to be able to chat with his sons and daughters. What he took, remained his own opinion.
Ah, you mother.
"Well, Mama and Alira are called Papa. He said there were guests who wanted to meet Alira" said Miss who was standing in the glass doorway.
Guests me? who's?
