After looking for Sam in how many places, it turns out Sam is by the pool while soaking his feet. Dilla followed Sam sitting by the pool. Dilla followed what Sam did.
"Why sit here?" ask Dilla base stale.
"Mommy," called Sam without turning to Dilla.
"Dear, baby" said Dilla by stroking Sam's hair.
"Mommy, can't Mommy love Sam like Mommy loves Rio?" sam asked with a straight look in Dilla's eyes.
Dilla's movement stopped. Indeed the affection that Dilla gave to Sam was different to Rio.
"Is Sam a bad boy so Sam can't get Mommy who really loves Sam?" connect Sam with trembling lips.
"If Sam can choose, Sam wants to be like Rio and Reza. Sam wants to be loved by Mommy. Sam wanted to laugh with Mommy like Mommy smiled and laughed with Rio. Sam wanted to.. wanted to..," Sam's words came to a halt because the teardrops had already come out.
Dilla wiped the tears out of Sam's eyes.
"Sam, I'm sorry Mommy. Mommy can't love Sam like Mommy loves Rio" Dilla said.
Dilla doesn't want to give Sam false hope. Dilla doesn't want to make Sam happy with a lie. If Sam finds out later, Sam's heart will hurt more.
"But Mommy still loves Sam too."
"Why can't Mommy?" sam asked with tears coming out more than before.
"Sam, whose affectionate name comes from here," pointed Dilla at Sam's heart.
"We can love someone because we're used to it. If we are strained to interact there will definitely be if we are both sincere. The affection can appear differently."
"So, if Mommy is often the same Sam, what Mommy would love Sam more too," said Sam full of hope.
"Sorry Sam, Mommy can't love Sam as much as Mommy loves Rio. Our mouth can speak freely, but the heart can never lie. Mommy doesn't want Sam to be disappointed with Mommy later. Mommy already has a family of her own."
"Sam really wants to be loved just as Mommy loves Rio and Reza" Sam said, hugging Dilla.
Dilla stroked Sam's little shoulder.
"Did Sam believe Mommy?" ask Dilla.
Sam let go of his embrace to Dilla.
"What does Mommy mean? Sam always believed in Mommy" said Sam, releasing their arms.
"Mommy is sure, if Sam will have Mommy who will love Sam as much as Mommy loves Rio."
Sam remained silent.
"Sam remind me of Aunt Bella that Mommy told you about last night?"
Sam nodded weakly.
"Mommy already got all the info about Aunt Bella. Aunt Bella also loves Sam's daddy just like Sam's daddy dear to Aunt Bella. Like Mommy said last night, Aunt Bella loves Sam as much as Mommy loves Sama Rio."
"But if Sam doesn't want to, it's okay. Though earlier Mommy intended to unite daddy Sam with aunt Bella. Maybe now is the right time for daddy and Aunt Bella together. If Sam hesitates, then Sam won't have a second chance. Well like we see stuff in the store, if we don't buy it immediately yes in the take people."
"Yes let's go in" said Dilla, standing up.
'Looks like I have to come up with a new plan. Sam was not persuaded by my appeal. But how can I go home if this plan fails, Dilla's inner self.
Dilla walked in front. Just one step, Sam pulled Dilla's shirt.
"Why Sam?" dilla asked who saw Sam looking down.
"If... if Aunt Bella is evil like Mommy Sam first how?" ask Sam back.
Sam looked at Dilla hesitatingly.
Dilla's smile.
'Finally also eat the bait.'
"Mommy believes that Aunt Bella is the same as Mommy Dilla" said Dilla.
"If later Aunt Bella is not the same as Mommy, then Mommy must be Mommy Sam yes," bargained Sam.
'Why even nawar. I am an exchange. But I was just before. Let Sam believe.'
"Yes Mommy promised."
Sam was happy to hear Dilla's promise.
"Let's go back to the room. Pity Rio from earlier alone in the room," asked Dilla.
Sam's smile faded hearing Rio's name.
"Okay Mommy" said Sam.
Sam doesn't want to be branded ugly with Dilla.
***
When Dilla and Sam returned to the room, Rio had fallen asleep on the carpet where Dilla and Sam drew. Dilla with a big belly was still able to lift Rio up onto the bed despite the slight distress. Dilla did not want Rio to be sick from sleeping on the floor.
"Come Sam here."
Sam immediately got on the bed.
"Now Sam takes a nap. Mommy will wake up. Sam must be really tired, too."
Sam nodded his head and closed his eyes. After making sure Sam was asleep, Dilla came out of the room.

"Ryan, what about Rio?" rita asked so consciously.
"There's no news at all Ma" Ryan said.
"It wasn't that this morning Rio asked for Dilla's HP. Is he still holding Dilla's HP?"
"Yes Ma, Dilla's HP is still the same Rio."
"Then why don't we search through GPS alone" suggested Rita.
"The HP Rio brought is dead Ma. It's possible Rio didn't lie to the battery. So we can't trace Rio's whereabouts"
"Rio Grandma's granddaughter. Where are you Rio, Grandma is worried about you."
Tit tit, tit tit.
"Who's Ryan?" rita asked as soon as she heard the incoming message on Ryan's HP.
"This is from police Ma. They said, they have the latest news about Rio. Ryan was told to go to the police immediately."
"Then you're leaving quickly. Hope we find a clue where Rio is," Rita told him.
"Yes Ma. Ma, Pa, say yes."
"Yes Ryan. You're careful on the road. Don't bring a speeding car."
"Good Pa."
Ryan immediately exits Rita's room and leaves Rita and Aditya.
"Pa's Mama's granddaughter."
"Yes Ma. My mother is patient. We must have found our granddaughter. We'll find Dilla soon, too."
"Now how is Reza. She must be anxious to find out Rio's gone too."
"For a while, let's not tell this to Reza. Fear Reza will do something reckless. Reza could have been looking for Rio and Dila himself. Mama knows for herself, she used to go looking for Dilla herself to her hometown."
"Yes Pa. We better take care of Reza. Mama's afraid that Reza's missing too. Come on Pa, let's find Reza" Rita.
