DAD CONNECT
Chapter 2 - NEW RESIDENCE

Early in the morning Elen woke up, a new atmosphere made him unable to adjust. Rubbing his face, Elen exits the room leaving Satria who is still asleep to go to the bathroom.

"Gosh, I forgot to bring my skincare." Elen looked at his pale and dull face because lately he often forgot to take care of himself.

"What, later if you have money can be treated again. The most important thing is the life of Satria. And I have to fight for it, I'm gonna slap Bram in the face so he knows I don't need his compassion to raise my son, I can!" Elen encouraged himself. After washing his face, swish out to buy some ingredients for cooking.

"Satria, are you awake? god, it's been a shower, so cute momy's kid."

"I'm hungry Mom" he said softly with pouting lips.

"Ah yes, Momy bought bread, you eat first and wait fifteen minutes until your mommy finished making breakfast."

"After Mom, do I need to help you?"

"No dear, you just sit and wait for this Momy of yours. Where's the spirit first?" billih Elen's.

Satria smiled, "My momy is the prettiest, the spirit is yes."

Elen rubbed the head of Satria, he was very proud of the son who always managed to turn his bad mood into cheerful again. Although Elen knew, in his heart Satria harbored a lot of sadness because of Bram's attitude.

"Mom, may I not go to school again" asked Satria.

Elen thought for a moment, then nodded.

"Jaudah get ready, momy take you."

"Okay, my beautiful Momy!" answer Satria spirit.

***

Kindergarten Pelita Harapan, Elen drove Satria to school. In the past, his boys used to go alone because of the close school distance, but now? The school was almost three kilos away from his rented house.

"Morning, Mum." Elen greeted one of Satria's teachers.

"Mom Elen, come in. There's something I want to ask. Satria, you join the class."

"Good Miss Vienna." Satria nodded politely then left her Momy and the teacher to enter the classroom.

The two young women were sitting opposite each other in the teacher's room. The difference is, Elen is Satria's mother, while Vienna, Guru TK Satria.

"Look, Miss Elen. Our school will hold a competition event for Father and Son. But, all this time Satria had never brought her father to School. What's..." Vienna lowered her head, she was really bad at talking about something like this to Elen.

"I know, Mom. But, we're divorced and for Satria's father, he's busy at work, can I replace him?"

"Mom Elen sure? It can indeed be replaced if the father of the student can not attend," said Vienna trying to understand Elen's position.

"Actually I would like to invite Satria to change schools because of the distance of our new residence is far, but..."

"Mom Elen, it's good not to. Because only a matter of months Satria graduated from Kindergarten and entered Primary School, she is smart and has many friends here. It's a pity to have to adapt in a new environment again. Better wait for you to graduate" suggested Miss Vienna.

"Good, Mom."

"Then I list Bu Elen's name as a replacement for his father Satria huh? coincidentally next week the show, so I can practice compactness first at home," said Vienna once again explained.

Elen nodded, after the conversation was over he went home.

***

"Elen, just got home?" sapa Bu Idha the owner of the contract.

"Yes, Mom. Let's go in" said Elen.

Idha smiled, The beautiful middle-aged woman followed Elen's steps into her minimalist home. To be honest he had been very amazed at Elen since he first met.

"Perhaps you need a job, this is my son Rafa. Actually tell it to Arisan's friend, but back I think you need more. Wijaya Group companies need CEO secretary."

"Secretary Ma'am?" elen asked, looking at Idha, in disbelief.

Idha nodded, then thrust her phone where Rafael sent a message about the job vacancy.

Elen read one by one requirements as a secretary of the CEO of Wijaya Group, a bit doubtful but saw the salary to be received in a month if work made him interested.

"Fifty million a month, ma'am?" elen asked still in disbelief.

"Yes, Son. My son's salary as a personal assistant is one hundred million a month." Idha mengu lum smile.

"Don't be surprised, that's also equivalent in any company. I don't really need money, I have kids. Husband is also no, want to stay to enjoy old age while nimang grandson," explained Idha, repeatedly sighing if remembering the child. Royal in terms of money and attention, but very difficult if asked to marry.

"If so much of Satria's future can be assured" murmured Elen.

"But Miss Idha, here's the condition..."

"That's it, Elen."

"But it's okay, I tried first maybe get away."

"Hopefully. Tomorrow my son will come here to pick you up. If the CEO asks, you just say Rafa. Elen, I do this because I care about you, I know how hard it is to raise a child alone, and you have to be passionate."

"Thank you very much, Mother. If my Mom and Dad were like Ms. Idha, maybe as heavy as any problem I would be confident I could deal with it, but..." Elena lowered her head, between annoyed and disappointed into one. The two old men seemed unconcerned about his current fate.

"Patience, I'm sure you're a strong woman. Well then, I'll go home, if it's ready Rafa'll pick you up in the morning, Elen."

Elen nodded, he drove the middle-aged mother to the front door and then saw a car pick her up in front of the contract.

"I'm sorry, Elen."

"Thank you many Mothers." Elena waved her hand and smiled.

Back in, he prepared the files that will be used to apply for work tomorrow.

"What knight?" sighing slowly, then sitting down, Elen tried to contact her best friend Keyra.

"Yes, Len?"

"I can nitip Satria just as you can't?" please Elen.

"Can, I'll go home from school so I'll pick you up."

"Seriously you?" ask Elen again.

Keyra said, "surely, seriously, I'm Satria's foster mom, it's okay to let her come with me to the cake shop."

"Thank you, Key. I just want to start work, doain ya can not be rejected, enough love alone ever rejected," said Elen while wiping his snot.

"Ishh, confide in mom. In part it's already from the era of High School, still ngarep the same refrigerator that does not even know you at all," said Keyra.

"Not nervous really, just amazed as his shyness exceeds the reasonable limit."

"Inget, inget the same at home, do not let your old man whose emotions are as high as?" again Keyra nagged Elen.

"Yes yes, I'm divorced with Mas Bram" muttered Elen. But the phone was cut off, making Elen frown.

"Ah, dead again his phone."

***

That afternoon to pick up Satria, Elen invited her to stop by Keyra's cake shop. In addition to giving up longing with his best friend, Elen also told all the problems with Bram to his beloved friend.

Feeling lucky even though her ex-husband and parents are evil, Elen is still surrounded by some good people who help her.

"So from tomorrow I'm with Auntie?" ask Satria.

Keyra nodded enthusiastically, "not aunty, but momy, call me momy."

"But..."

"Look, let your aunt do it!" whispered Elen.

"Okay, so I have two moms but no dad!" satria said without a smile.

"Satria!!" Elen and Keyra looked at each other, why did the boy suddenly turn lethargic.

"Satria has momy, Satria has Bram's father." Elen squatted in alignment with Satria, while Keyra rubbed the boy's shoulders.

"What's mom doing? Dad doesn't care about me, how many times I try to be smart, even if I get the best grades, you won't care, am I not his son? I can't get a compliment from Dad, I want to feel how Dad says I'm great, I want to hear you say I'm proud of you, torch." Satria looked down lethargic and cried.

"Honey, believe me momy someday you will get it." Elen tried to hug Satria and calm her down, inwardly also feeling tight. Satria's sadness was her most painful heartbreak.
