Capítulo 3: 3. Thief of Hearts

Padmasari, who was used to seeing her husband's rude attitude, could only sob at Kusuma's shouts and witness the pieces of expensive objects that she had always wanted to have. So far, Kusuma has always used luxury items but he has never given his wife the same rights.

"Have I always hurt you so that you still dare to say that I killed your lover? Remember Padmasari, here you are just a woman who enjoys all the benefits of my labor without trying like I have been working all this time."

"You forbade me."

Slap

A slap landed on Padmasari's smooth face, making her scream and holding the slap mark as she ran leaving Kusuma where he was. It wasn't her room she was going to, but Andika's room which was next to the main room. All the servants who witnessed Mr. Kusuma's cruelty could only remain silent while harboring pity for the master's wife without being able to do anything.

"Mommy."

Andika who was in Minah's arms screamed for Padmasari. He tried to break away from Minah, but Minah forbade him. She looked at him for a moment.

"Let's go to Uncle Amurwa. Who knows now it's Uncle's turn to train Jeremy and Cintya in the field. Later, You can join him on a ride"

"I want it with Mommy."

Minah covered her lips with her index finger to make Andika understand why she did that.

"Don't come near Mommy because Papi is angry. Later, Young Master can also be scolded by Papi."

Andika nodded. actually he wanted to save his mother from his father's wrath but he justified Minah's words. Several times he had tried to approach his mother while being scolded by his father, but he always got the same torment as what his mother received.

"We're going to Uncle now."

"I want Uncle Murwa to be my Papi, Minah."

"Yes, later, the Young Master can call him Papi. But not now, Papi is still angry. He can kick Uncle Andika out of this house. Would you like Uncle Amurwa to be expelled?"

Andika shook his head. He immediately preceded Minah to Jeremy's stable looking at Amurwa who was riding Jeremy gallantly, making her fascinated. Amurwa, who saw Andika coming, immediately slowed down his horse and directed the black animal towards the little boy who was looking at him with a big smile.

"Want to ride with me?"

Andika nodded. Amurwa immediately got down and lifted Andika's body onto Jeremy's back then he followed and sat behind Andika. Slowly he continued his race while training Andika so he could adapt himself.

"Uncle, when can I call you Papi?"

"What?"

"When can I call you Papi?"

"When? I don't know. I am afraid that your Papa will be angry. Actually, I didn't mind being called anything but that, I was afraid that Papi would be angry.'

"So what happens when Papi is angry?"

" Of course, Ha ha ha, I would be kicked out."

Amurwa easily answered Andika's question. This self-indulgent answer silences Andika. He had heard everything from Minah about the expulsion that would be carried out by his father if he called Amurwa the same name as his father.

"I don't want you to be expelled. Let me just call Uncle."

"Good then, Young Master. I am pleased."

"When will you teach me archery again? I can't wait to shoot Papi."

"Shh, you can't do that, Young Master. It's called ungodly. Sin. A child can't kill his parents."

Amurwa, who had absolutely no idea why Andika intended to shoot his father, finally remained silent. He was curious about what was going on in the house. A few minutes ago he heard Mr. Kusuma yelling but Amurwa had absolutely no idea what was really going on. He wanted to get information from Andika but he was afraid that the little boy would raise his question to Minah.

"Uncle"

Amurwa who was contemplating became surprised when Andika called her so she forgot that she was on Jeremy's back. He pulled the reins of his horse so that the startled Jeremy ran even faster. Amurwa was taken aback by the act of putting his Young Master's life in danger.

"Uncle I'm scared."

Andika tightened her grip on the saddle. Amurwa put one arm around Andika's stomach while the other hand remained on the horse's reins.

"I'm sorry, young master. I was surprised to hear that the young master wanted to shoot papa."

"It's okay, Uncle. After all, I'm angry with Papi who always makes Mommy cry. Just now Papi hit mom and slammed his cell phone. Papi was always wick to Mami, Uncle."

Amurwa is silent. His heart was very hurt when he heard Andika say that Mr. Kusuma often beat his wife. For Amurwa, Padmasari is a pearl in a golden cage. Can be seen but can not be taken except by people who have excess property.

Amurwa actually feels sorry every time she sees Padmasari's beautiful face which seems to always be covered in fogt. Life is full of wealth but she can't seem to enjoy it.

"What is Uncle thinking right now? Don't you want to help Mami so she doesn't always get hit by Papi?"

"It's not that I don't want to help, Young Master. I am just confused about how to help Mami if my position is only as a servant like this. Every day I feed Cintya and Jeremy without being able to see the outside world."

"Uncle can save from now on. You must have a lot of money to be able to save Mami. Don't want to be someone who has nothing because if you just sit and take orders, when will you be yourself?"

What?

Amurwa kissed his Young Master's head. He was really amazed by Andika's intelligence, a five-year-old little boy who was sitting with his back to him, seemed confident and didn't feel afraid at all.

"Let Mami be happy, Uncle. Free Mami from the evil papa. I want you to be my father. Not Papi Kusuma because Papi Kusuma doesn't know how to treat Mami at all."

Amurva nodded. In his heart he promised to carry out Andika's orders. He smiled at the thought of Andika's words as if to advise him. He really had to have a lot of money and he had to have everything before he could compete with Mr. Kusuma.

"Looking at Mami who is now suffering because of Papi, I'm sure that Mami doesn't need your real treasure. Mami just needs sincere love from people who can respect her as a woman and I'm sure it's love from you, Uncle Amurwa."

"Why are you so sure, Young Master?"

Andika was stunned to hear Amurwa's question.

"I often see Mami opening the window and sitting on the balcony looking at Uncle. Every now and then Mami smiles and shakes her head, As if rejecting the feelings that are in her heart. I'm sure that my Mami is also in love with you, Uncle. Please, don't hesitate. From now on, be a strong man enough to be a protector for a woman like Mami.'

"Never mind, young master. I don't want to be a mentor at all. That's not me at all."
