Chapter 121 - Uninvited Guest I
That morning, Lisa was still staying at Rangga's house to look after Julian while Mrs. Rusmiyati returned to her hometown. It looked like Julian's nanny wasn't coming back any time soon. Rangga had tried to contact Mrs. Sumiyati with Lisa's cellphone but there had been no answer.
During the conversation, Lisa's cell phone suddenly rang. It was an incoming notification!
Lisa pressed her cell phone's screen and opened the message content. "Rangga, this is from Mrs. Sumiyati. She said she'll be back tomorrow or the day after,"
Hearing that, Rangga sighed with relief. "Lis, can you stay here for the meantime? I think you're good at taking care of Julian. You don't have any important business, right?"
"Yes, no problem. No, I don't have one and there's Vira who can help me with sending products for my online shop's customers," Lisa replied casually.
Julian just woke up from his sleep and approached Lisa and Rangga who were chatting at the dining table.
The toddler then hugged Lisa and greeted her with a sweet smile.
Lisa was very happy to see the toddler's innocent smile. She reached out and picked up Julian then put him on her lap. Julian was still sleepy, so he leaned his heavy head on Lisa's shoulder and groaned.
"Sleepy..."
"Ah, Julian you're so cute...!" Lisa muttered when she heard that childish voice.
Suddenly, Lisa felt something soaking her pants and clothes. At first, she thought it was just sweat, but when she checked again, Julian's peeing!
Woe to her! She had never been faced with a situation like this in her life. She didn't want to hurt Rangga as she was disgusted by the sight. But she put it aside and didn't mind it much. Lisa then got up from her seat and showed Rangga what Julian just did.
"No, my clothes!?" Lisa said a little panicked.
Rangga looked at his close friend with a shocked look. The cup he was holding almost slipped from his hand.
"Lisa, I'm so sorry! My child still likes to wet himself!" Rangga hurriedly took Julian to the bathroom and cleaned the mess. The man immediately changed Julian's wet nightgown.
"No! Look at my clothes! Damn I don't bring my change clothes!" Lisa shouted from the dining room.
"Wait...! I'm still taking care of Julian!" Rangga replied with an equally loud scream.
"Pa... pa... Sorry..." Julian said regretfully. His eyes started to water, afraid that Rangga would punish him for wetting himself.
"It's okay, dear. But next time you want to pee, you have to tell first okay? Come on let's clean you up first. I feel bad for auntie Lisa," Rangga said softly. Julian nodded and then smiled again.
In the dining room, Lisa glanced at her soaked white shirt and pants. She shook her head as if she had done something wrong.
"I don't really understand how to take care of small children but I still want to have one! Damn what's wrong with me..." Lisa said to herself.
After he washed Julian, Rangga quickly handed Lisa a small towel.
"Lis, you brought a change of clothes, right?" Rangga asked, trying to convince himself.
"Exactly no. This is my last dress. Do you have any other clothes that I can wear? I will wash your clothes later and I'll return them clean!" The woman asked, slightly reluctant.
"Of course. Now go to my room and then you choose whatever that fits your body, then immediately shower and wash your clothes," Rangga said.
The man lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry Lis, I didn't know Julian would pee on your lap,"
Lisa just nodded and smiled. The accident meant nothing to her.
Lisa immediately went up to the second floor where Rangga's room was. After entering, she hurriedly opened the door to Rangga's wardrobe and looked around. Of Rangga's many clothes, there was only one shirt that she thought would fit her well.
"T-shirts!" Lisa said, taking a white T-shirt from the cupboard.
Then she looked for pants that were suitable for her to use. But none of Rangga's trousers fit her.
Even though Rangga was thin, his waist was not as wide as Lisa's. Woe to her again!
It looked like the idea of wearing a white T-shirt wasn't the right choice if she didn't have any pants to cover her bottom.
Lisa was back again looking for Rangga's robe.
"Aha! Found it!" She found Rangga's beige spring jacket. It looked like an expensive brand shirt. Then she hurried to the bathroom.
In the bathroom, Lisa used Rangga's hairdryer to dry the clothes and pants she just washed.
"Heh, lucky Rangga has long hair!"
After leaving the bathroom, she went downstairs and approached Rangga.
Under the autumn jacket she had borrowed, there were only half-dry undergarments.
Lisa lowered her head, feeling embarrassed. Her face turned red when Rangga looked at her in surprise.
"Sorry, I borrowed your Mulberry jacket. I couldn't find any fitting pants for me," Lisa said in embarrassment.
"Yes, it doesn't matter. It's just... Are you okay to wear a jacket like that?" Rangga asked in surprise.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward. Lisa's face turned red with embarrassment. She couldn't let Julian see her like this!
A few moments later, Julian came over to his father. He saw Lisa in Rangga's autumn jacket, staring at him with a questioning face.
"Huh? Aunciee? icn't that... Papa's..."
Lisa ran out of words when the little boy asked. Julian was just a kid, it was very difficult to explain to him why Lisa was wearing Rangga's jacket.
The boy didn't understand at all. Shortly thereafter, Rangga said softly, "Julian dear, this is what happens if you pee on someone else's lap. Aunt Lisa's clothes were wet and Papa had to lend her clothes. Do you understand?"
The boy nodded.
"Now apologize to Aunt Lisa," Rangga gently said.
"Auncie, sowwy," Julian said from his adorable little lips.
That innocent face managed to melt Lisa's heart for the umpteenth time. She really couldn't blame him or show her annoyance to Julian.
Julian approached Lisa then hugged her. His face showed an expression of guilt and regret.
"Hey, it's fine, you didn't do it on purpose. Next time don't do it again, okay?" Lisa softly said.
Lisa picked up the boy and hugged him tightly. The kid was so adorable. She thought that this must be how it really felt to be a mother.
"What about your clothes, Lis? Have you dried it?" Rangga asked spontaneously.
"Yes, I already washed everything. I borrowed your hair dryer earlier to help my clothes dry quickly."
"Once again, I'm so sorry. I've bothered you so much that you have to wear my autumn jacket like that," Rangga chuckled while looking at Lisa, who was only wrapped in a long beige jacket that almost touched the floor.
"Fortunately, I'll stay here until Mrs. Sumiyati returns! There's no way I'll go home now wearing your jacket, right?" Lisa casually said.
Rangga chuckled.

In the afternoon, Lisa was seen playing with Julian. They watched TV while Lisa was feeding him his favorite pudding.
Suddenly, the doorbell sounded. Lisa called Rangga to open the front door but the man seemed to be taking a shower.
What else could she do? Lisa was forced to open that door.
She went to the door and opened it. How shocked her face was when she saw who was standing in front of her!
