17. THE FEELING OF UNCLE DIKA

That whole day, Dika kept clinging to his wife. Dika seemed reluctant to be separated from Eka for even a second.

Even during the trip home. Dika fell asleep, with his head resting on Eka's shoulder.

Annata, who was sitting in the driving seat, repeatedly looked at her only son who was sleeping. In fact, Nadia's presence was still able to destroy her mood.

Annata hoped that Nadia would not mess up Dika and Eka's household. Just like what Nadia once did to Dika.

The car was parked in the main yard of Eka and Dika's residence.

"Let me call Rudi to help me get Dika out," said Annata, unbuckling her seat belt. Then she got out of the car.

Eka nodded slowly. Not a word came out of her mouth. She was afraid that if she made a sound, it would wake her husband who was sleeping in the dream.

A few minutes later, Rudi arrived. He opened the car door and helped to get the sleeping Dika out.

Dika did not wake up at all. He looked like someone who had been given sleeping pills. Who knows?
