Earth Without Dusk
38. Nesya Struggles With Her Father
Plakkkp!
Adrian again could not resist his emotions to throw his slap. This time the target is his own biological son, Nesya.
“Bad papa!” nesya shouted while holding her cheek that had just been slapped. His eyes suddenly heated up because he inundated the tears he held so hard not to fall. He hated crying in front of his father. He doesn't want to look weak.
“I'm your papa, I asked you nicely from where you were last night, but what was your answer?! Now you say I'm evil?!” bentak Adrian's.
“Papa is evil! I'm lazy to go home too because of Papa. I'm lazy to always hear Papa fighting with mom. And just now Dusk said mom was sick? It must have been Papa, right?!” nesya.
“Do not interfere in the affairs of parents!”
“Then don't interfere with my business!” reply Nesya did not want to lose.
“If it wasn't for you being the daughter-in-law of the Aerospace family, I wouldn't care about you! You can't be arranged! Can't you copy your cousin Dusk? Can you be a little polite with your parents?”
“Papa wants me to be like Dusk, has Papa himself been acting like Om Andika? Has Om Andika slapped Dusk? Dusk always gets the love of his parents. Om Andika and Aunt Lili loved him so much that I always envied their families. But look, how did Papa treat me and my mama? Papa spends more time with Papa than we do with us! I hate Papa! I hate!” nesya shouted accompanied by her sobs.
“Whatever you say, clearly lest your deeds out there tarnish the good name of the family!”
Adrian then went out of the house after saying that. While Nesya, she wiped her tears violently. He thinks his father is very selfish for not thinking about his feelings. He became like that because of his father. If his father hadn't married his former secretary, maybe Nesya was still the way she used to be, the kind child that his parents had been following.
Nesya put her feet up, not to her room, but to her parents' room. Nesya entered the room without knocking on the door first. The dance that was lying on the edge of the bed crying, quickly wiped his tears and sat on the edge of the bed.
Although Tari tried to hide her tears, but the eyes that had been swollen and reddened could not lie. Nesya immediately approached her mother and hugged her.
“Ma, don't cry anymore. I know it must have been Papa.” Nesya tried to calm her mother.
Dance broke that hug. He could clearly see Nesya's red cheeks next door.
“Did your papa slap you? Mama heard your voices fighting below,” asked Tari.
“Who else would have done it if not papa. I hate papa now. That's why I'm lazy to go home if only for a fight,” Nesya replied with annoyance.
“Don't hate him, he's still your papa." Dance tried to persuade Nesya.
“Is your papa angry that you didn't come home?”
“I told you, I'm lazy to go home, Ma. I'd better stay in the apartment.”
“Honey, soon our family and the Aerospace family will negotiate again the matter of matchmaking you and Earth. Don't let you make a mistake out there or tarnish the family's good name. Mama knows you go to nightclubs with your friends. But Mama hope you can reduce your activities.”
Nesya took a deep breath. He was always asked to take care of his family's good name. Fortunately, none of his family knew how free Nesya was outside.
“Good. But I think in the next few days I'm going to stay in my apartment first. I want to calm down.”
“Do not take long, three days only. Your father will be gone for three days, so you can stay at your apartment if you want.”
“Alright, Ma. Take good care of yourself, yes. I promise I'll take Mama away to live with me after I get married to Bumi.”
“May your match with Earth go smoothly.”
Nesya nodded then hugged her mother again.

After coming out of her parents' room, Nesya went into her room. He was seen packing some of his clothes into a small suitcase. Then he picked up his phone and called someone.
“Hallo, can you accompany me these few days in my apartment?”
