After taking Sherly to school, he escorted her to the Boutique.
"Darling, I won't be able to pick Sherly up from school. Because there will be a meeting. Can you pick up Sherly? Later I will send the car and the driver to the boutique" said Thomas.
"Yes, Mas. You just calm down. I'll pick up Sherly later. You just focus on work" said Amelia.
"Thank you, baby!"
It did not feel like the car they were riding in arrived in front of the boutique. Not forgetting, Amelia kissed the back of her husband's hand.
"I'm in, Mom! Be careful on the road and his morale!" amelia said she gave her husband encouragement.
After his wife was not seen again, Thomas then re-applied his car. Today he had an important meeting, which is why he couldn't pick up his wife and son.
As usual, Amelia was busy with boutique financial bookkeeping. He must check more carefully the goods in and the goods out, so that there is no mistake.
A few hours in front of the laptop screen, his waist felt very sore. Amelia stretched her muscles, she looked at the clock that was coiling in her hand.
"It's noon, it's time to pick up Sherly" he said. While waiting for an office car invitation, he packed and cleaned up all the messy things.
"Mba Rani, I'd like to pick up the kid first. Please handle everything. If I have time to go back to the store," said Amelia.
"Yes, Mba Amelia. Beres!" answer Rani.
"Thank you very much, Mba!" said Amelia passed away leaving the boutique. In front of the car that picked up Amelia, did not want to wait long, Amelia immediately boarded the car.
About twenty minutes they reached the gate of Sherly School. Amelia looks for her daughter. Sherly comes out of School, she runs not paying attention to the road.
"Mommy?" his yell.
"Sherly, don't run!" yelled Amelia too.
A motor passes at high speed, and .....
"Sherley! AWAAAASSSS!" amelia shouted in a high tone.
BRAKK ....
A woman managed to hug Sherly's body, and beat her own body to the sidewalk, to avoid a speeding motorbike. Surprised, the bike dodged, slamming the steering wheel in the opposite direction, causing its passengers to fall. And fortunately nothing happened.
Amelia knew this was not the man's fault, she looked at it with her own eyes. Sherly who crossed without looking left right, so that the event occurred.
"I'm sorry, Mom. I did not intentionally!" said scared.
"That's it. Next time be careful! It's the streets of many small children, so, you have to be more careful!" amelia.
"Yes, Mom. Thank you very much!" that guy also left immediately.
Amelia approached Sherlly and the woman. Sherly looked terrified, and the woman was also injured. Amelia hugged her daughter.
"Are you okay, honey?" ask Amelia to Sherly. Sherly shook her head.
"Are you okay?" ask Amelia. Amelia saw the woman's knee hurt.
"It's okay" he replied, trying to get up.
"Let's go to the hospital?" bring Amelia.
"No need. It's just a small wound!" abugn. Amelia looked at the woman in front of her, and it turned out that she knew her.
"You're the woman who came home the other day, right?" ask Amelia. The woman nodded.
"Wait here, I'll buy some medicine at that store!" Amelia went to a store close to the School to buy Betadine and plaster. After getting the needed medicine, Amelia helps Clara to treat it.
"It's done!" amelia said with a smile.
"She's so beautiful and kind, deserved Thomas so much to like her," said Clara, "Thank you so much" she replied.
"Together" replied Amelia.
"Actually I'm here, I'd like to meet you. Can we have a chat for a second. Just one second!" pinta Clara's.
"Ehm, let's just go to the City Park. It's a safe place to play with kids!" show Amelia.
"Alright, Come!" said Clara. They also visited a city park not too far from the school. The two of them sat in the park chair, while Sherly played the slide there.
"What's wrong, Mba wants to see me?" ask Amelia.
"You know I'm Sherly's mom. I'm her real Mama" said Clara, "My name is Clara. May I know your name?"
"Amelian. Just call me Amelia" replied Amelia.
"It's great to get to know Mommy Sherly said. You're so beautiful, kind and motherly. Well, Sherly is very close to you" said Clara. Amelia just smiled.
"Thank you so much for the compliment. If I may know, what's the matter with Mba Clara looking for me?"
"Look, Amelia. I know I made a terrible mistake leaving Sherly as a baby. It was a mistake that could never be forgiven. But, doesn't everyone have mistakes? Right Amelia? You must have made mistakes too? Aren't we?" clara asked, answered a nod of the head by Amelia.
"Because it's Amelia, is it my fault I can't get forgiveness? Is it unforgivable? I'm a mother, just want to get a confession from my daughter. I want to get closer and get to know Sherlly. Am I wrong?" lick Clara with many questions.
"The MBA is not wrong. But, Mba could not immediately say that Mba is her biological mother. Because, it would be bad for Sherlly's own development. At the very least, Mba waited until she grew up. Then Mba can tell Sherly. She's too young to know about adult problems" Amelia said.
"But I am his mother. I'm her real mother" said Clara.
"Yes, I know. But, Mba can't just go see Sherly without her permission. You must ask his Daddy for permission!"
"It's impossible for me to ask Thomas for permission. Thomas would never allow me to see Sherly. He hates me so much" he said.
"I'll help melt my husband's heart. But, I don't promise. Please Mba can keep the attitude, don't go to Sherlly secretly. That would scare her" Amelia said.
"All right" replied Clara.
"Sherley?" call Amelia to Sherly. Sherly is playing the slide.
"Yes, Mom," Sherly replied approaching her Mommy.
"Honey, this is Aunt Clara. Mommy's distant brother" said Amelia introducing Clara to Sherly. Sherly seemed to remember the woman standing in front of her.
"Aunty went home yesterday, right?" ask Sherly.
"Yes, honey," replied Clara. Clara hugged her daughter's body. Clara's treatment of Sherly leaves the boy puzzled. But Sherly just stood there without responding to anything.
"We have to go home. Must be at home waiting!" amelia. Clarra released her hug on Sherly's body.
"alright. Can I have your HP number, Amelia?" ask Clara. Amelia wrote down her cell phone number on Clara's phone. After saying goodbye, they separated. Amelia took her daughter in the car.
On the park bench. Clara was smiling happily. He wiped away the tears of pretence.
"It's a great first step to taking over someone's trust. It's okay, I'm sacrificing my knee. As long as my goal is achieved!" clara says her own monologue.
