"Umm." Zayn woke up from his sleep and immediately sat up. However, suddenly a wet cloth fell from his forehead. Seeing the cloth, Zayn reflexively took it.
"Wet cloth?" He wondered.
Zayn remembered Shea, he slept with the woman last night. His gaze shifted to the side where Shea had slept last night, which turned out to be empty. Zayn decided to look for Shea outside the room, bringing the wet cloth. However, unfortunately, he couldn't find Shea.
Knock!
Knock!
Zayn's gaze shifted towards the door, he walked towards the door and intended to open it. Lita was seen standing in front of him carrying a plate of food. The girl showed her smile when Zayn opened the door for her.
"Mom asked me to bring food for Zayn," said the girl as she handed the plate.
"Thank you," Zayn replied, taking the plate Lita gave him with a thin smile.
"Well then, I'll go home first," Lita said goodbye, she looked flustered when she saw the man's smile.
Zayn looked at the food Lita brought him, again Lita's family was kind to him. Zayn felt bad for continuing to receive help from Lita's family. However, he also felt bad for refusing. But luckily this morning he got food, especially since he must not have had time to go out and buy it.
Then, the man decided to go inside. He sat on the rattan chair and placed the plate on the table. Then, he took his cellphone from the table and opened a notification from Shea. The woman sent him a voice note. Zayn then listened to the voice Shea sent him.
"Zayn, if you still have a fever, it's better to go to the hospital. Sorry, I can't wait for you to wake up because I have to go home."
Zayn smiled, somehow his heart felt happy. "So, last night she compressed my forehead with that wet cloth?" he muttered.

Shea had just finished combing her hair, she was now getting ready to leave for her office this morning. After getting ready, Shea took her small bag and carried it out of the room. Coincidentally, she met her eldest son who seemed to be deliberately waiting for her arrival. Seeing her son, of course Shea immediately greeted him.
"Why are you here? Come on, let's have breakfast," Shea invited.
"Mommy going to the office today?" asked Azriel, which made Shea's smile fade.
"Yes, what's wrong? Is there a problem?" asked Shea worriedly.
Azriel shook his head hesitantly, the corners of his lips lifted into a thin smile. "Nothing, I'll get my bag," Azriel said goodbye and immediately left Shea who was wondering about her child's attitude.
"What's wrong with Azriel? He's acting so strange," Shea muttered.
Not wanting to bother with it too much, Shea decided to continue on her way to the dining room. There, Daisy and Kai were already there. The two of them seemed to be discussing the food that was being prepared at the moment.
"Grandma, only omelets! Kai doesn't want eggs," said Kai, refusing to be given eggs.
"Heh! Eggs are good for your growth, so you can grow up quickly," Daisy admonished and put the stewed egg back on her grandson's plate.
"I don't want to grow up quickly! It's hard to find money, Kai can only spend it right now!" Kai shouted, which made Daisy dumbfounded. While Shea chuckled, she pulled her chair to her son's left.
"Look at your son?! Mama has given up on taking care of him, hurry up and find a husband so someone can take care of your child and educate him. Mama's blood pressure could keep going up because of him," Daisy exclaimed, frustrated.
Shea didn't answer her mommy's scolding, she just took her breakfast and ate it leisurely. She would introduce Zayn, but not now. Hearing again about the search for a new husband for her Mommy, made Kai remember Zayn again.
"Grandma! There's a handsome uncle in Mommy's office, so handsome! Uncle is handsome like Grandpa!" Kai shouted excitedly, he even knelt on the chair. His eyes rounded perfectly, as if the boy was like a group of mothers seriously gossiping.
"Yes?! Handsome? Did you offer him to your mommy?!" exclaimed Daisy excitedly.
"I did! Grandma, you said Daddy was just for Kai, nobody's right. I found the right one. The uncle is handsome, white, very tall, I already offered it. But the uncle doesn't want to," Kai chirped.
"So Grandma, the uncle...,"
"Rich, right?! That's the complete package!" Daisy exclaimed, clapping her hands.
Kai's expression changed, he looked at his grandmother with a cynical look. "Last night, Grandma didn't say anything about his money. Grandma only said he was handsome," Kai protested, making Shea choke.
"Cough! Cough! Cough!" Shea immediately grabbed a glass of water and drank it.
Zayn was indeed handsome, but the man was not rich. In fact, she was the one who paid Zayn so that the man would marry her. Her mother would be surprised to know that Zayn came from a simple man. Moreover, Zayn was younger than her. It seemed that Shea had to put together the words first before introducing Zayn to her family.
After breakfast, Shea immediately left for her office, rather than continuing to listen to her Mommy's chatter. Arriving at the office, she returned to focus on work. Until waiting for lunchtime to arrive. Maybe, this afternoon she would pick up Kai. Meanwhile, Azriel, the child could go home with the driver.
Shea was always focused on her work, she even always lost track of time when she was in front of her laptop screen. Like now, time seemed to show twelve past noon. She was late picking up her youngest son. When she realized it, Shea was immediately startled.
"OH MY GOD! I FORGOT TO PICK UP KAI!" Shea shrieked and immediately packed her things.
"That kid must be whining now," muttered the beautiful woman before grabbing her bag and going to pick up her youngest son.
Meanwhile, the child being talked about was grumbling in front of his school gate. Many of his friends had been picked up, while he had to wait for his mommy to come. Actually, the driver could just pick him up, but Kai didn't want to.
"That's right, Kai wants a new Daddy. Mommy is always busy, always forgets about Kai," he grumbled.
Not long after, a car he recognized very well stopped in front of him. Seeing that, Kai pursed his lips. He stepped towards the car while looking at his mommy who opened the door for him. Kai's eyebrows furrowed sharply, he pushed his lips forward, which made his chubby cheeks look even more visible.
"I'm sorry, honey, Mommy forgot," Shea said with a guilty look.
"Kai is mad at Mommy, Kai doesn't want to talk!" Kai snapped.
"Eh? You don't want to talk but… never mind," Shea thought.
"Don't be mad, how about Mommy takes you to meet your new daddy."
"NEW DADDY?!" Kai shrieked with sparkling eyes, instantly forgetting his annoyance earlier.
"Yes, I want to! Don't ask, let's go meet new Daddy!" Kai shouted with a wide smile. How quickly the child's mood changed when he was asked to meet his new daddy. Shea could only shake her head at her son.
