Forced to Be Stepmom
The Bobi Old Man's Ruckus

Radit returned home after he spoke to his two sons. He walked into the house with heavy footsteps. He immediately went to his room to clean himself up and immediately rested.

"Sister's home yet? Did something happen?" asked Andra who greeted Radit as soon as she entered the room.

"It's nothing. Just a small matter".

Radit responded to his wife with a gentle smile.

"Has Lili slept? Was he angry?".

Radit switched the conversation by asking his little daughter.

"He's not angry. Just a little curious about the thing that makes his father go straight away again when he just came home from the office".

Andra spoke with a calm demeanor and a gentle smile.

Radit responded with a gentle smile.

"Why haven't you slept? Are you waiting until I get home?".

Now Radit asked about the wife who is still awake at this time while teasing him.

"I'm thinking about the kids. What are they really doing? Are they okay? Is it possible that they did something no-no?" andra said she was worried about Radit.

"There is no need to worry about them excessively. They are big and can take good care of themselves".

Radit responded in a calm manner while preparing to clean up.

"It is precisely because they have grown up that I am more worried that they are falling into the wrong company"

"Just calm. They wouldn't risk being her mother's prisoner who would be kept under surveillance for the full 24 hours"

Radit spoke with a seductive smile.

Eh? Prisoner for 24 hours? Didn't I tell Lathan that?

"Son Radit knows where I threatened them like that? They called Radit's brother? Or maybe ... Radit's sister met them both? Where're they? What do they do by sleeping outside the house?".

Andra asked in a suspicious tone to Radit after she realized the husband's remarks about her two sons. He who had previously remained calm in bed, immediately stood up and approached Radit to get an answer about his son.

"They're fine. You don't have to worry about them too much. Just trust them that they won't do things we don't like".

Radit tried to calm Andra while tightly hugging his wife.

"Yes, I'll believe them"

...****************...

Next day.

Lathan takes Ardhan to school after they have breakfast at the hotel first.

"Sister, are you going straight to school?" ardhan asked with his calm demeanor.

"of course. Where do you think I'm going?".

Lathan responded to the younger brother in a calm and indifferent manner.

"It's not. It's just .. didn't you ask Papi last night about cooperation? Is it because there is someone who is trying to threaten Brother?".

Ardhan who was outside Lathan's car kept asking even from the open car window.

"No need to worry about that. I can handle it. You have to solve the problem with the principal and your senior, if you need help. Just tell me" said Lathan who gave attention despite her cold demeanor.

"Yes, I get it. I'll call you if you need anything".

Ardhan responded to Lathan with a gentle smile accompanied by a nod of his head.

"Then I go in first. Thank you for helping me avoid my mom".

Ardhan spoke as he left Lathan without waiting for a response from her.

"This child. It turns out that you can also say thank you even though while shy" muttered Lathan while looking at Ardhan who was getting away. After Ardhan passed the school gate, Lathan left

...****************...

Ardhan had just entered the school gate after being escorted by Lathan. He walked quietly to his class.

What's up with them? Why is everyone looking at me like that?

"Ardhan! Ardhan!" a boy ran over while shouting for Ardhan.

The confused Ardhan turned his head as soon as he heard someone call his name.

"What's wrong? Why are you screaming that?" ardhan asked with a calm attitude.

"That's .. Bobi's parents are waiting for you in the principal's office" said Ardhan's friend with gasps of running.

"What do they need to find me?" said Ardhan with a frown and a sneering tone.

"I don't know. Maybe because of yesterday's problems?"

"Maybe".

Ardhan left his friend and went to the principal's office.

Tok tok tok tok

Ardhan knocked on the principal's door even though the door was open.

"That's Mah. He hit me yesterday and my friends" said Bobi, pointing to Ardhan standing on the doorstep.

Ardhan's forehead wrinkled in wonder while smilingly sneering at Bobi.

"I just found out that it turns out that the senior at school who he said was always feared by all students turned out to be just a mother's child who likes to hide behind her mother's armpits".

Ardhan spoke in a sneering tone. He walked leisurely toward Bobi's parents and the headmaster, then sat down on one of the empty couches.

"Heh. Sparkling sniffles! Didn't your parents teach you manners? Can you talk like that in front of us?" said Bobi's mother in an annoyed and arrogant tone.

"My parents always taught me good manners, but they also taught me good manners. If her parents can't be respected, why am I being polite?"

Ardhan spoke nonchalantly while smiling faintly. After that he stared intently at the headmaster.

"Sir principal, don't you know for yourself how to sit down?" ardhan asked with sharp eyes.

"That .. madam you better calm down first. We can talk about this all right. This is just juvenile delinquency".

The headmaster immediately responded to Ardhan's remark with an awkward smile on his lips.

"How about just plain mischief? You see for yourself how my son's face is! This is not just ordinary delinquency but has led to cases of violence! It's a criminal by name!".

Bobi's mother spoke very upset and full of emotion while holding her son's cheek.

"Then what about your son? He and his friends always persecute new students. He asks for their money, making people they don't like like like their helpers, act arbitrarily to others. Didn't that say violence? Madam, school bullying is more than violence. It was a criminal case that could cause trauma to the victim of bullying even make the victim depressed, even worse could make people lose their lives. Aren't you concerned about your child's attitude like that?!"

Ardhan spoke firmly as well as coldly. He was not at all afraid of Bobi's mother nor the headmaster.

"Omong empty!" bobi denied Ardhan

"How dare you vilify my son! I know very well how my son. He's a very good boy. There was no way he would commit such a crime!".

Bobi's mother insisted that her son did not do the same thing that Ardhan had said.

"What if I have proof of his crime? Even the headmaster knew that what I said was the truth. Isn't that right, Principal?".

Ardhan immediately turned to the principal to get approval from him. He stared with a sharp look in his eyes and a faint smile on his lips.

"That .. anu …"

The principal looked nervous and misplaced. If he agrees with Ardhan's words, then Bobi's mother could be angry with him for not being able to protect her son, but if she denies Ardhan's remarks, then it could be that all evidence of embezzlement of school funds that Ardhan has will be widespread to the community.

"Why are you quiet?! What exactly are you doing as the principal?! Taking care of just one dissident student you're not good at. If indeed you are unable to overcome it, let me make him be called to a disciplinary meeting!" said Bobi's mother who is getting emotional.

"Tell me what your name is!" ask Bobi's mom while pulling out the phone

"Ardhan" answered Ardhan briefly.

"Your full name!" ask Bobi's mom again

"Ardhan Prayugi Nugraha"

"What?!"
