The Simpang Jalan
Chapter 70

Seeing Rachel let go of her embrace, Kia felt better. He tries to control his almost flying feelings if he remembers the moment Indra bribed him. "Rachel was why she ran away from the car, so Rachel was wretched because she wasn't careful."

"So Rachel saw Dad, Rachel was yelling at me, but I'm still going." The tears rolled back down Rachel's cheeks. "Dad didn't love Rachel .." - she screamed.

Awakened already Kia's question, it's true Rachel saw Davi drive Nanda to School.

Misye forgets Indra, the intention of wanting to make fun of her brother just vanished, considering that Davi is more concerned about his stepson making his old wound gaping again.

Suddenly Azriel approached Rachel, and rubbed her friend's shoulder. "I also used to be sad because my papa left and not the same me again, but the word om Indra far from papa does not mean papa no dear, but, we will get even more love. I felt the loss of my papa, but I felt the affection and attention of a papa from om Indra."

"Not only that, said Indra I should not be sad just feel missed 1 person, because it makes everyone sad. Remember not only papa who loves us, there are still many who love us!"

Rachel looked at everyone in the room. He realized his mistake, he made many people sad because of his rampage that wanted his father. Without them saying, Rachel knew very well that Mother, Luna, oma and her opinion loved her.

Rachel looked at Indra, the gaze of the pair of eyes that still remained tears was like sunlight that made ice cubes melt. Rachel's gaze made Indra's entire body feel weak.

"Can I also get a father's affection from Indra?" ask Rachel.

The dorrr!

It felt like a bullet had shot through Indra's heart.

"Don't love me, so I'm sure Rachel om Indra will too" sambar Misye said.

"Miss!" kia and Indra said at the same time.

"A soul mate," said Misye.

"We love Rachel very much, but on Dad's business, we can't help" Herman said.

"I hate Daddy, Bad Dad!" grouch Rachel.

"Yes! My dad is also mean, he just loves his new kid!" grouse Azriel.

"No way, we still love papa even though papa is evil," said Misye.

"Mama is not clear, instead of saying mama kemaaren consider it papa already dead."

Misye immediately shut her son's mouth.

"Emmm .. It turns out that he taught the heresy to Azriel," ledek Indra.

Rachel looks getting better, Azriel said that there are still many who love her besides Dad, making Rachel remember everything she passed with her mother before when she went to the market and to tourist attractions.

Rachel asked to come down from Kia's lap, she turned to Azriel. "Ziel, did you bring any coloring gear?"

"Bring." Azriel immediately unpacked the contents of her bag.

"We're coloring together yuk."

"Corn!"

They all sat back on the sofa watching Rachel dye the book with Azriel.

The door of the room opened again, Nabila looked tired with her face entering the room, she ignored the adults who looked at her, Nabila continued to walk closer to Rachel.

"Where is Rachel?" Nabila rubbed gently the child's shoulder.

"Here still hurts the feet, the rest I'm good."

Rachel's smile made Nabila sure the boy was really good.

"Aunty Nabila panicked, huh?" ask Rachel.

"Can't you, Aunty, I'm so sorry for Rachel."

Rachel's smile grew wider, it was true that there were many who loved her. No problem telling 1 person who no longer loves him. "If you love me, hug dong." Rachel opened both hands asking Nabila to hug her.

Nabila immediately hugged Rachel and gently rubbed the child's back. "Rachel's smart, baby, kasian mom, if Rachel's why, mother's happiness is just Rachel."

Hearing Rachel's words, Kia was very happy, she immediately hugged the person standing next to her.

"Mother likes to be envious of me, I hug Aunty, mother does not want to lose even hug o Indra!" rachel's Scolding.

Kia immediately let go of her embrace, she was very sure from earlier that the one standing beside her was her father.

"A minute of class, Rachel, how's school going?" ask Azriel.

"Wear the stick!" suddenly Luna came carrying a pair of crutches.

"No way!" Rachel Screams.

"If you don't want to use a cane, you use a wheelchair." said Luna.

"I don't want to either."

"What if you are fat? So every time you go and go home from school, Indra's the one who takes Rachel. In class, Rachel wants to tell Azriel, her mama made Rachel like this" said Indra.

"If it's earned, I want to." Rachel's spirit, now her eyes are on Kia.

That look made Kia very uncomfortable. Many times his son's words have trapped him with his own feelings.

"Mother don't envy ya, later see me carried by Indra, mother also want to."

Kia rubbed her face rough, just like her dugan, Rachel's words were magical.

"Rachel, if Indra were to be Rachel's father, Rachel would?" ask Misye.

"Eh we practice fat first yuk Rachel, right while at the Hospital if you accidentally fall Rachel, om no need to take Rachel to the Hospital again, right we are still here." Indra leaned her back toward Rachel.

"Om oh! I want to fall on you!" Rachel hit Indra's back.

"No, I would say if."

Rachel is upset, but she tries to climb onto Indra's back. With Nabila's rock, Rachel was on Indra's back.

"Nobody, everywhere" Indra chanted.

"Ah .. is not fun!" grouch Rachel.

"Not good slings?" Indra.

"Not om, but there is an infusion hose, making it difficult to move far."

"Who said hard, here we can go everywhere, om Indra hold you, I push this." Azriel got off the bed and pushed the infusion pole, so Rachel could corner wherever she wanted.

"Ih .. still can't get far!" Rachel conditioned on a square machine electrical plug attached to an infusion pole, a machine that regulates the descent of the infusion fluid.

"Had been the practice, so Rachel quickly recovered so that it could be carried everywhere." Indra dropped Rachel back to her bed.

***

The house that houses Davi and Likha is not as calm as before, Nanda's cries are overheated because there is no air conditioning deafen the ears. Davi's head is getting stressed, the burden is increasing while the work is not there yet. Davi grabbed the key of the bike and the helmet.

"Where are you going?! Mama's motorbike bought for Nanda's school shuttle! Not to make your wara-wiri!" spray Eren.

"I want to find a job ma, a difficult office job, maybe there is a vacancy at my best friend's cafe."

"Owh, great. Don't come back if you don't have money!" omel Eren's.

Likha was upset to hear her mother's insults, with difficulty she got up and approached Davi. "Don't take heart said mom."

"No, my mom was right too." Davi rubbed the side of Likha's head and landed a kiss between her eyebrows. "Mas go yes."

"Be careful."
