Gabriel returns home with a million thoughts that occupy his brain and mind. Work in the office that seems to just sit around facing a computer screen, in fact, is really draining the mind. Gabriel needs a fresh breeze now.
"Queena!"Call Gabriel to the princess who is now twelve years old. Queena has only recently entered junior high school this year. Gabriel and Hana's only daughter grew up so fast.
"Queena!" Call Gabriel again to the princess.
"Ngambek," Not Queena. But it was Bu Laksmi who answered Gabriel's call.
Ms. Laksmi is Gabriel's biological mother who is also an oma of Queena.
"Why else?" Gabriel asked, kneeling his temple.
It's dark Gabriel's day because his mind is too busy because Queena craves.
"Abservations from school. Write a letter to Mommy. Know for yourself how the ending," replied Bu Laksmi while displaying a look of careless face.
"Just write a letter? Then what's the trouble?" Gabriel clucked and was about to head to Queena's room, when then Bu Laksmi's sentence stopped Gabriel's steps.
"It's certainly hard for Queena who no longer has Mami!"
"Queena needs a Mami, Briel! After all, seven years is enough for you to find Hana's successor, Briel!" Bu Laksmi said at length advising the son.
"It's not a sin if you decide to remarry now" said Ms. Laksmi, a song Gabriel had not answered. The man continued his steps towards Queena's room.
"Queena!" Gabriel knocked on the door and repeatedly called out the name of the princess.
"Queena, open the door, honey! Papi's home!" Persuade Gabriel once again to the princess.
"Quee-" Gabriel had yet to finish his final knock when the door finally opened from the inside. Directly seen Queena who is now a teenager with a face scowling her. The girl turned back into the room after opening the door.
"Queena!"
Queena took out a piece of paper from the top of her study table, then gave it rudely to Gabriel.
To: Mom
Such is the writing on the paper that was given by Queena.
"Queena, you can give this letter to Oma!" Entertain Gabriel to provide a solution.
"Can papi not read? The letter was to Mommy. The letter to Oma is on its own! If a letter to Queena's mom gives it to Oma, then a letter to Oma, who should Queena give it to?" Cerocos Queena in an annoyed tone.
"All right, Papi's sorry!"Gabriel tapped his own ear as punishment if he made a mistake with Queena.
Gabriel was already sitting on Queena's bed, and the twenty-two-year-old man grabbed Queena's arm, then guided her daughter to sit with him.
"You had a shower?" Gabriel asked as he gently rubbed Queena's head.
"Had." replied Queena cirly.
"Queena want to take a walk with Papi? To the bookstore? Then buy some ice cream?" talk Gabriel again to the princess. The enticement to the bookstore and buying ice cream always worked and was never rejected by Queena.
"Yes." Yeah."
"But Papi took a shower first!" Remove Queena while pushing Gabriel towards the door.
"Should, huh? Later if Papi's good looks fade how?" It was Gabriel who instantly made Queena roll her eyeballs.
"Live in the sandpaper again, Pi!" Queena answered while closing the door. It was so loud that Gabriel was a little shocked.

Friska and Sashi break into a bookstore in search of a reference book for an assignment from an Indonesian teacher.
"Eh, the teenlit novel section is on the promo, Fris! Look-lihar jerk off, yuk!" Invite Sashi while pulling Friska's hand to the shelf of the teenlit books that are indeed being promoted massively. Maybe because at the end of the year.
"What do you want to do with a novel, anyway, Shi?" Ask Friska a little bit. Friska has always been lazy to read and lazy to the bookstore if there is no important thing or task. Unlike Sashi who is a bookworm and likes to read teenage novels.
"And while diving drink milk, Fris! Book for tasks Yes. Nyari novel for friends join yes," replied Sashi origin.
"Feelings are not so the sound of the person. While diving drink milk? Whose milk is trying?" Friska murmured as she scratched her head.
"Milk you!" Sashi replied as long as he laughed out loud.
"Yee! Why not your own milk. The flat one has no shape at all until SMA is still using miniset only," Friska ledek on Sashi.
"Fuck you, Fris! If open disgrace not in public places, dong!" Sashi immediately shouts Friska's head in annoyance.
"When you want to find a novel! Later in the night there are no more angkot want to go home what, hayo!" Friska reminded Sashi who had been busy grumbling because of Friska's plunge on milk.
"Send to pick up Brother Jimmy, be done!" Answer Sashi lightly.
"Yes you were picked up. Lah me?" Friska pointed towards her own face.
"Yes ride a three-wheeler. There's an auto to be ticketed later!" Connect Friska again which only makes Sashi chuckle.
"Then, you're shoved into the seat so don't get a ticket!" Sashi chirps who has started to choose the novel he wants to buy. Friska did not approve of Sashi's led and took part in looking at the teenlit novel which was 50% discount. Although what Friska saw was only the cover and the blurb.
"Fris!" Sashi suddenly nudged Friska's shoulder.
"What?"
"That's see! There's sugar daddy at ten!" Sashi's whisper directly makes Friska follow the direction Sashi pointed.
"Huh? Are you sure it's sugar daddy? Know where? Is there a sign?" Cecar Friska was confused.
"That's what a teenage girl is like us, too" Sashi said.
"The numbers may be," Friska guessed.
"Impossible! His son's childhood was already great when his father was young," Sashi's sergeant denied Friska's opinion.
"Nephew means!" Friska's opinion again.
"Sugar baby that! Godain, whoa! A lot of money and lots of money!" Sashi.
"No ah! Less work! I'll get the book home!" Friska said as she passed and no longer wanted to linger staring at the sugar daddy that was meant by Sashi. Either Sugar daddy is real or just a sadar daddy so-genesis!
