The Simpang Jalan
Chapter 26

The event that was waiting for finally arrived. Many children came with their parents. After getting off the car Rachel continued to look in various directions, looking for the figure she missed.

"What's the matter, baby?" Kia caught something from her daughter's reaction.

"Where's bun's dad?"

"Maybe you haven't arrived yet."

"But I promised you I'd come?"

"Mother just reminds Dad that there's an event."

"Hey pretty, why moody?"

The greeting caught Rachel's attention. "Aunty Nabila came to replace Dad?" guess Rachel.

"No, Aunty deputyin Zera ponakan aunt." Nabila is increasingly convinced her best friend's household is in trouble, but Kia does not want to tell her. "Can't Dad come?" ask Nabila.

"Sorry, baby, I'm late."

"Dad ...." Rachel was very happy to see her father, she immediately jumped for a sling.

At the same time Kia also directly approached her husband, she tidied the chest of the suit that Davi was wearing, so suddenly this broke Nabila's thinking.

"You're in a hurry, aren't you? A little messy." Kia still allowed her husband's clothes.

All over Davi's body shook violently to get sweet treatment from Kia, is the sign his wife forgave him?

"Hi all."

The greeting just now was like the sun shining hot, making the dew of happiness evaporate just like that.

"Hi Aunty Likha." Only Rachel accepted Likha's greeting.

"Rachel, is she still in her arms?" likha.

"There is no prohibition that big people should not be carried, I've often seen Mother carried by Father."

"Top-ten ... Mother Rachel's father was always romantic yes even though the marriage was long," commented one of the parents of the student who heard Rachel's speech.

"Jeez Rachel, you're ashamed to be caught by people if you're still spoiled by Dad," Kia complained. Proudly Kia wrapped her arms around Davi's waist.

"Just relax, Rachel, we're all proud to hear it" said another.

"I'm sorry, please help Rachel get ready, today Rachel's singing part." Kia pulls Davi to walk with her.

Seeing that sight Likha was pecking. I still do not understand why Davi left me, even though he and Kia had no problem, inner Likha.

Likha's attention was on Nabila. "Sir Nabila, we're with yukk."

"Sorry our place is different!"

"Different because my rich brother is poor?" likha lirih.

"Oh sorry, I mean different goals, because your son is still kind of kindergarten, I'm in SD." Nabila immediately left Likha.

Kia's hands still faithfully held Davi's waist, until they reached the backstage. Kia immediately took off her armband, she immediately dressed Rachel. Davi kept looking at Kia's face.

"Mother is the best, I like it. Yeah, I'm gonna go hang out with some old bun friends." Rachel gives her kiss to Kia and Davi, and just leaves from there.

Now backstage there's only Kia and Davi. Feeling that her task was done, Kia tidied up the contents of her makeup bag, and wanted to leave the place.

Davi restrained Kia's motion by holding the arm of the wife he had hurt. Davi brought his face closer to the side of Kia's ear, a glimpse like kissing Kia. "You want to excuse me?" whispered.

Kia draped both hands to Davi's neck, and placed her mouth on the side of Davi's ear. "As a woman I can no longer afford to continue this relationship. If I didn't have a family and no Rachel, I'd want to end my life. The pain you gave me is beyond my ability to endure."

Davi found it hard to breathe, he imagined the pain he had inflicted on Kia. Swallowing saliva was hard to imagine the pain.

"Why am I still sitting where I didn't make any decisions? It's because I'm thinking of Rachel, if I decide to split up, what's her mental state? But if I choose to endure, will I be able to endure the pain?"

"Until now I still have trouble making any decisions, forgiving you or letting you go "

"I beg you not to end this, give me a second chance, I promise to change my attitude" Davi whispered.

"I talk too much. This is not the right place to discuss the matter." Kia let go of her embrace. "Can we focus on our child's happiness?"

Davi nodded slowly, no matter how Kia felt at the moment she did not know. For Davi Kia to walk with him is enough Even Kia still hugs him even though the woman hates him.

The two of them walked towards the seats reserved for the elders. Although at this time Davi has not received an apology from Kia, and he can only hold Kia's hand, this is great happiness for him.

The show began by showcasing their children's talents. Rachel looks so happy to see her parents back to what they used to be. She continued to sing and make everyone proud and clap.

The show continues. Parents are still focused on the appearance of other children.

"Hi Kia, can I join you?" likha.

"Sorry Kia, everything here has been determined by name. You didn't meet your chair?"

"Not Kak-"

"Miss ...." Kia ignored Likha's defense, she called one of the teachers there.

"What's Mother Rachel?"

"Can you take this mother to her seat? It seems he didn't find his seat. Her son is still kind of kindergarten, miss." said Kia.

"Let's come with me" the teacher asked Likha.

"Can't I sit here?" Likha.

"All places already have their owners, please be orderly, do not seize the place of others," said the Teacher.

"Having a very charming person Miss, please be advised, if you have a soul wrestler must be difficult to take away from having people, his name is also a wrestler not a fighter," said the parents of other students.

Likha relented, the more she clumsily wanted to be near Kia, the more chaotic the situation was because of her, she immediately went to follow the teacher.

The children's talent show is finished, now parents enjoy their time by talking to fellow parents of other students, some talk to teachers asking about their child's development.

Davi felt Nabila's reaction was mediocre to him. Davi's mind that woman's gonna hate him. Davi's gaze was fixed on Kia, seen the woman was busy with her phone in a quiet corner. Davi slowly caught up with Kia.

Kia stared cynically at Davi who was getting closer to her. "Don't take a chance mas, I'm sweet here just because of Rachel."

"About our problem, why are you keeping it a secret from so many people? Even keep it a secret from your best friend."

"The less people know about my problems, the easier it is for me to consider following my heart, not following people. If a lot of people find out, the more rumors that make it harder for me to make decisions, the harder it is to use my brain and my heart."
