''Uncle, whose aunt was that?" ask Dimas.


"Oh aunt who was uncle's wife, the same little child aunt was uncle's son" said Alderts.


"Auntie was the same kid where did uncle go?" tanya Love's.


"They wanted to stay at the aunt's friend's house, dear, she said her friend was sick" Alderts said.


"Oh that" said Love.


''Yes dear, let's go in'' Alderts said to Kinara's children.


"Yes uncle" they said in an adorable tone.


''Oh yeah what's your name, baby?'' alderts asked Kinara's son and daughter.


"I'm Dimas'' said the Kinara boy.


''What is your name beautiful?'' Alderts asked Kinara's daughter.


"I Love" said Kinara's daughter.


"A very beautiful name" Alderts said, smiling alternately and stroking the tops of their heads.


''Thank you" they answered in unison.


"Do you dare sleep alone? or going to bed?" ask Alderts.


"I'm brave, but Love is timid" said Dimas.


''Love coward? what are you afraid of, baby?'' tanya Alderts lowered her head to be on par with Love.


"Fear the devil" she replied sweetly.


''Fear of demons? yes you have slept the same Dimas yes dear" said Alderts while stroking the top of Love's head.


"Yes, uncle. Come on, uncle drive to your room" Alderts smiled, holding their hands to follow him.


"Yes, uncle'' said Dimas and Love in unison.


"Darling, this is your room, how? do you like it?'' ask Alderts.


"I like it, the room is very spacious, very nice" Dimas said as he looked around.


Alderts provided a room for Dimas and Love, a room his daughter Saartje Kim Jacob used to live in. There's still a picture of Saartje there.


''Uncle, this is Sarah's room, right?'' asked Dimas when he saw Saartje's photo.


''Honey, this is your sister Sarah's room" Alderts said, holding back tears from falling.


Dimas and Love ran into Sarah's picture frame.


''Brother, Dimas misses big brother very much, Love also misses big sister very much, ' said Dimas and Love shed tears.


Alderts immediately embraced them and wiped away their tears.


"Later uncle get rid of Sarah's picture frame so you don't feel sad anymore" Alderts said stroking the tops of their heads.


"Don't uncle, just let there be a picture frame of sister Sarah in this room, this is my room" said Dimas.


"OK, if that's your request, now you rest" Alderts said lowered his head to be on par with them.


''Yes, uncle'' said Dimas and Love.


"Have you eaten yet?" ask Alderts.


"Not yet" said Dimas and Love in unison.


''Yes, you have taken a shower first so that uncle will bring food for you, what do you want to eat?" ask Alderts.


"Any uncle" said Dimas.


"Call me papah just baby" said Alderts staring at Dimas and Love alternately smiling stroking the tops of their heads.


''Yes uncle, uh he means papah' said Dimas shut his mouth in shame.


"Yes, my uncle came out first to get food for you" said Alderts.


"Yes uncle" said Dimas.


"OK" said Alderts to leave them.


Dimas and Love sat on the bed and continued to stare at Sarah's photo with a sad facial expression. Over time staring at Sarah's photo, they sleepy and asleep.


Alderts went to the kitchen to get food and drinks for them.


"Dimas, Love wake up baby, eat first yes" Alderts said patting their shoulders slowly.


Dimas woke up but Love was still asleep.


"Love woke up" said Dimas shaking Love's body that was sleeping fast.


Love awoke to rub his eyes and Alderts fed them in turn.


After their food ran out, Alderts bathed them, clothed them in clothes, applied eucalyptus oil to their bodies and gave them blankets. Alderts turned on a television showing Spongebob Squarepants cartoons.


Love looked so happy while watching the Patrick Star scene that he hit his twin Dimas.


Alderts, who saw Love banging Dimas, tried to stop him.


"Honey, brother Dimas do not hit it" said Alderts holding Love's hand.


Love fell silent and stared briefly at Alderts and went back to watching television.


Kinara twins look so adorable.


"They were very small but had to bear the weight of this kind of problem, so strong their shoulders that God chose them to carry this burden alone, they had to grow up without their parents, without anyone they had" Alderts' inner self until his tears fell.


Alderts wiped his own tears and stroked the tops of their heads and hugged those who were busy watching their favorite cartoons.


Love, who was watching television, suddenly drowsy and closed his eyes asleep on Alderts' shoulder.


"Love look funny yes" said Dimas lapping Love's hands are sleeping fast.


"Love, is she quiet? I'm like a madman, I'm talking to myself, Love" said Dimas, lapping Love's hands in a deep sleep.


Dimas who never got an answer from Love also glanced at him.


''I should have spoken, he was silent, not having been asleep hm" said Dimas annoyed.


"Just let him sleep" Alderts said, slowly breaking down Love's body so he wouldn't wake up.


"Basic sleepyhead" muttered Dimas.


"It can't be that Dimas is with your sister" Alderts said, stroking Dimas's head.


"It's different minutes" said Dimas.


"Even if it's only a few minutes different, he's still your brother Dimas, don't do it again yeah, let him sleep, if you're sleepy just sleepy" Alderts said smilingly stroking the tip of Dimas' head.


"I'm not sleepy om, I still want to watch the cartoon" Dimas pointed to television.


"Yes, I'm with you" Alderts smiled.


"Yes" said Dimas who returned to watch television.


Dimas who was achy because of the slow sitting was lying beside Love and still watching television, Alderts who felt sore also finally fell asleep in the middle of Love and Dimas. Love turned around to hug Alderts with her eyes still closed, Alderts brought Love's head to his shoulder and stroked the head of Love smiling with a sad look. Dimas and Love are twins but Love's face is very similar to Kinara's while Dimas's face is very similar to Rangga's. Alderts who stared at Love who was sleeping fast became remembered his moments together with Kinara. The times when Kinara fell asleep in her chest when everything was still fine, when their relationship was still very harmonious had not been split into 2 separated hearts that both had a new home, but the difference was that Kinara managed to find a new house that was much warmer than her old house while I failed to get a new house that was much warmer than her old house. My new home is cold and feels so bland.


"I was foolish to leave a gap for Sinta to enter our household until I finally lost a good woman like Kinara and also lost my daughter Sarah" inner Alderts who without realizing it his tears fell down dripping.


"Uncle why? how can Love cry so anyway? what's the matter uncle?" asked Dimas who saw Alderts crying.


"It's okay Dimas, uncle doesn't cry just put dust in" Alderts rubbed his eyes.


"Oh that, uncle I sleepy, the tv just turn it off" said Dimas.


"Yes dear" said Alderts smiling and turning off the tv.


Alderts stroked Dimas's head slowly and Dimas closed his eyes and fell asleep, Alderts kissed his forehead and Love and left when Love let go of his arms.
