1. He won't come

"I just want daddy," her son muttered.

              Lily only smiled bitterly after hearing that sentence. A simple request that turned out to be very difficult for her to realize. The long-haired woman was silent for a long time while looking at her son who was busy eating lunch.

"Want more, hmm? Fried tempeh or fish?" she asked with a face that looked cheerful again.

"No, I don't. I'm already full," Farel refused quietly. "Did you hear what I said earlier? I want you to come to my birthday party."

"I-yeah. I'll try, sweetheart," Lily replied, not sure.

"Or should I call daddy instead? I miss him already." Lily's frown made the almost four-year-old pout instantly. "What's wrong? Daddy doesn't love me anymore?"

"No! Who said that? Daddy is busy working. You have to be patient. I will call your daddy later. Now quickly finish eating, then take a nap. Okay?"

              Farel's nod made Lily breathe a sigh of relief. In her heart, she cursed her ex-husband who had not given any news for a long time. There was a raging feeling at that moment, remembering the promises that the man had made. Unfortunately, they were just words. For almost a year, the fruit of their love did not receive news or proper livelihood as agreed upon.

              After making sure that her son had entered the room, Lily dared to grab her cell phone. Then look at the history of messages that about two months ago did not get a reply until this moment. The wound that she had covered up for a long time was now open again.

              The replying voice from the telephone network service made her chuckle softly. As expected, her ex-husband's number would be difficult to reach. There was no choice but to try the last resort. So Lily made a desperate move.

"Hello!" she greeted someone when she heard the call connect.

["Hi. Is this, Mrs. Lily?"]

Lily smiled slightly even though her heart was filled with a bit of anxiety. "Yes, ma'am. Yes, I'm Lily. Hmm... Is Adrian here?"

              Unfortunately, her hopes were immediately dashed when she heard a loud voice from the other side. Who else if not the ex-mother-in-law who forcefully snatched the phone from the housemaid?

["Hey, you!! Still dare to call here, huh?"]

"Mom?" Lily's breath caught in her throat after hearing the scolding voice just now. For the sake of Farel's request, she dropped her pride again.

["Why? Are you hoping that Adrian will receive this call? Don't ever dream! What do you want? Are you short of money? Yes? Can't take care of your child? So don't be so capable! He confidently said that he could raise Farel. How much money do you need? I'll transfer it now!"]

              Lily's tears fell at that moment. She sobbed because she again had to receive harsh words from the woman who was the cause of the breakup of her household just now. "Mom, I didn't call to ask for money."

[Laughs] "So what? You only work to trouble my child. It's different from my future daughter-in-law Bella now. She's beautiful, kind, independent, and certainly comes from the same lineage as us."]

"That's enough, Mom. I called your home number because Adrian's cell phone hasn't been active for a long time," Lily said as she roughly wiped away the traces of her tears. "Farel wants to meet his father. It's his birthday in two days. He just wants Adrian's presence."

              Instead of listening to Lily's complaints, her mother-in-law just chuckled.

["You just take him to the front of our house. Then you go. Go somewhere else. To a hotel or something. What is clear is that I don't want to see your face again. Oh yes. I'll send you a ticket for Medan-Jakarta. Easy, right? Hmm, but it looks like Adrian won't be at your son's birthday party. He's busy preparing for his wedding. What do we do?"]

"Adrian will get married?" asked Lily stammeringly.

              Her heart felt the pain of hearing those words. No wonder since she returned to her hometown in Medan he had become increasingly difficult to contact. It turned out to be true the rumor she had heard that her ex-husband was getting remarried.

["Yes. He finally realized that Bella was better than you. Many times over even."]

"Okay. Then I know that there's no need to hope for the wrong person."

["It's good that you're self-aware. Send me your account number. I'm still being generous."]

"No need, Mom. I can still support my children. Just send my regards to Adrian. Please tell him if his son wants to meet. That's all."

              After that, Lily cut off the conversation over the air with a trembling hand. Honestly, she still loved her ex-husband. However, those feelings clearly wouldn't be able to fix their relationship that had run aground since last year.

              It was already early in the morning. Lily wiped away the sweat that had soaked the area of her face that was exhausted from work. She smacked her lips as she looked at her body which looked thinner day by day. Everything was done to support herself and Farel. She has no problem with working shifts that often deplete sleep. The important thing was that her baby did not feel deprived.

"Mom!"

"Honey? What's wrong, hmm?" murmured Lily when she saw her son's awake face.

"What did Daddy say earlier? When is he coming?" asked Farel with a bright face. He couldn't wait to show his daddy off to his friends later.

"Oh, yes." Lily sighed softly and placed her hands on each of Farel's shoulders. "That daddy of yours, he's... not coming. From now on we'll just live together."

"What do you mean?" asked Farel with a confused look on his face. "I already told you that I want Daddy. Only Daddy!"

Lily chuckled softly. "Look at me, baby! I've been the one fighting for you all this time. Why do you still want your daddy? He's irresponsible. He's-"

"You're bad!" Farel snapped in a raised voice. "You're the one who took me away from home."

"That's not it. You just don't understand. Me and your daddy's relationship is...," Lily trailed off. She felt guilty for getting carried away. Due to fatigue and pressure from work, her mind was in turmoil. Sadly, Farel had already digested what she had just said. The boy turned around and left her with a puffy face. "...., I'm sorry. I was wrong." Lily's tears broke out instantly.       She needed some time to herself before engaging her son in conversation again.

              After cleaning herself up, she intended to see how her son was doing. Hoping that tonight she could hug the tiny body of her lifeline. Just as she opened the door to her room, she was shocked by the sight that hit her chest.

"Farel, what's wrong with you?"

2. I just want daddy
Her breathing became labored when she saw Farel's shivering body under the blanket."Daddy!""Honey, wake up. It's me," Lily said in her hoarse voice. She panicked when she felt the heat around her son's body. Farel was still with his eyes closed from his earlier rant. Lily quickly pulled back the blanket and picked up her son's body within seconds. At that moment, she felt a violent shock."Auntie! Uncle! Help!" screamed Lily who was already at the doorway.It didn't take long for a middle-aged woman to emerge from the other room. "What's wrong with Farel?""Farel has a fever again, Aunt. He just had a seizure! We have to go to the hospital now.""Yes, yes. I will wake up your uncle first." Now the three-wheeled vehicle that her uncle usually used to earn his daily living was speeding away, carrying Lily, Farel, and her aunt to the nearest hospital. Luckily, the health facility was only five minutes away from their house."Please," Lily sobbe

3. A crazy offer
"Daddy, stay here. Don't go anywhere else," Farel pleaded with his face still looking pale."Honey, it's okay. The nurse wants to put your IV in first. Soon the medicine will be inserted. Listen to mama, son," said Lily who was almost frustrated. Farel was about to rebel, but the body of the adult man who he thought was his father was getting closer. So he nodded and finally obeyed not to move anymore."Pain is bad. So you have to get better quickly," he said in a flat voice. However, it succeeded in making Farel happy because he felt cared for."You promise not to stay away from us anymore," Farel murmured with a sad look in his eyes. "Tomorrow is my birthday. My friends will ask me where I am again. So don't go.""I have-"These words were interrupted when the doctor who was treating Farel came into the room. "Good morning. Wow! Did you lose the IV?""Sorry, Doctor," Farel grinned, showing his horse grin. "I was too happy to see my daddy."The doctor turned to the man in

4. You can choose to
Keenan said that consciously, but the woman in front of him accused him of being crazy. His jaw hardened with a piercing gaze at Lily. "You will regret your words.""What a strange man," Lily muttered. She quickly turned around and moved quickly away from Keenan. The first thing she saw was her son's dazed face as he looked back and forth. Lily smiled and approached the gurney."Where's Dady, mom?" Farel asked without even acknowledging her presence. "I didn't dream, did I? We met him in the hospital garden. Grandma didn't believe in me." The mother's silence caused the boy to turn to the middle-aged woman who had been guarding him. "It's true, Grandma. Daddy is here with me. Right, Mom?""Really?" asked Lily's aunt who looked doubtful.Lily shook her head weakly. She quickly changed the subject. "How is it, dear? Did the infusion hurt, hmmm?""I haven't answered that one yet," Farel said in a stern voice. "I want daddy. I don't want anything else." As a mother

5. The new status
"We're not going to do battle in bed," Keenan muttered with a lopsided smile. Lily's face, which had been looking tense, now looked flushed. "Why, are you not getting enough petting, hmm?""Watch your language!" snapped Lily then. What he just said offended her pride. Ah. She had almost forgotten that she had lost it since she decided to marry Adrian."So how was it?" Keenan did not care about the change in his interlocutor who looked depressed. "Since you're silent, then I assume you agree. I'll take care of this with my lawyer. So tell your son that I'll be back." Without wanting to hear Lily's reply, the arrogant man just walked away. Now Lily sat on the sofa in her son's luxurious treatment room. On the other side was her aunt who was already fast asleep on the bed beside the patient. While she had still awake since two hours ago. Lamenting the seemingly endless misfortunes of life. She had married Adrian for love. Soon she would do the same, but this time

6. The beginning of suffering
The reprimand caused the newlyweds to freeze for an instant. Both of them looked at each other with an unknown gaze. Until a few seconds later Keenan extended his right hand to Lily."That's it. Don't forget to take it for documentation," said the marriage officer to Keenan's messenger who was holding a camera. Meanwhile, Lily pressed her forehead against the back of Keenan's hand. Inevitably, the man brought his lips to her ear."I'm willing to be a daddy for your child, but don't ever expect me to treat you like a wife." Words that only Lily could hear because they were so close. Her new husband briefly kissed her forehead. Then, he backed away from Lily. Her suffering did not end. Instead, it only increased because of her new status. As the wife of a man, she didn't even know at all. Fool. Of course. However, her instincts as a mother overcame her sanity. The short marriage ceremony was over. Lily looked up when he

7. It's too easy for me
"Sorry, sir," squeaked Lily in her hoarse voice."This time I forgive." Keenan looked at her sharply. "Listen carefully, Lily. I don't like you calling me in such a high tone. Be obedient if you want me to treat you well."              The woman nodded silently. Then she walked side by side with Keenan back to the car. The place where his son was now."Dad, where are we going?" asked Farel when the two were on each side of his left and right."You just wait. We'll get there," Keenan replied with his cold and flat face. That made Farel look down and no longer said anything."Hey, what did daddy say earlier, hmm? He wants to give you a surprise. So don't disturb him yet," Lily whispered as she rubbed the top of her son's head. "Daddy's like that because he's afraid he'll say something, honey.""Oh. Yes," Farel said quietly.

8. Don't lie!
              The sound just now made Lily's jaw drop. In an instant, her presence had become the focus of everyone in the living room. Meanwhile, Keenan didn't care at all."Keenan, you're not bragging." The woman in the lackluster dress standing in front of him was inflamed. "She's just a new maid in this house, right? You guys... can't be married. You're just lying!"Keenan rolled his eyes back. He quickly grabbed Lily's body. "What's impossible? She is my wife. We just got married. Are you deaf, heh?""So what do you think I am?" the woman snarled. She smiled wryly as she glanced at Keenan's wife. "This is not funny. You know that we are a good match.""That's just what you think."              After that, Keenan pulled his wife's arm and left the woman. The two walked to the main room and were followed by the butle

9. Because of the rice
"Awwh!" The woman winced as her hand was grabbed firmly and jerked violently. She growled and then turned to the perpetrator. "Keenan??""This is my house!" Keenan gave the woman a sharp look and then pulled her quickly out of the room."Keenan, come on. What kind of charade are you doing, heh? I know that you're pressured to get married, but why does it have to be with a one-child widow anyway? Look at me!" The silver-haired woman confidently approached. "I can be your wife."Unfortunately, Keenan laughed discordantly. "Lisna, stop making things up. You'd better go home now.""I'm serious. What am I missing? Oh my. You're probably being patted down by that woman."Keenan snorted softly then said. "I'm not in the mood to argue with you. Go away."            Meanwhile, inside his room, Farel was listening to Lily's explanation regarding the incident."It's okay, sweetheart. That a

10. The first night
              Farel gasped and then froze in an instant. Meanwhile, Lily quickly restrained Keenan's hand which had been clenched tightly."What are you doing?" asked Keenan in a voice that held a hint of anger. He was about to return to the study. However, the noise from Farel's room ruined his plans.The four-year-old boy looked down as he wrung his fingers. "I-I was just playing with the playhouse.""He was just playing. Please don't scold him," Lily whispered.            She shook her head softly with eyes that almost stopped blinking as Keenan began to pick up his pace. Just as he was about to approach Farel, her cold husband stopped and took a sidekick position."Is your bed uncomfortable?" he asked later. "You don't like the picture?" Farel shook his head. "Or the color?" Again the boy shook his head softly. Keenan frowned
