A Million Love For Alana
It's Time for You to Know

Nadia rubbed Acha's head that was leaning on her shoulder. Although Acha is a child, she does not distinguish her affection from her other children. Nadia loves and loves her children.

“How did Doctor Riki, was he said to want a story about Doctor Riki?” ask Nadia.

“Ehm .. not so, Ma. Forgot what story,” replied Acha.

“You sure you forgot? Or pretend to forget?” nadia asked with a pull on Acha's nose.

“I—iya forget, and forget it, Ma. I'd rather mama not be sad anymore,” said Acha.

“Oh so Doctor Riki Just a diversion? You like it?”

“Ya out mama sad that, Acha at least want if mama sad, if mama cry, especially until mama blames herself mama for what happened first. Don't be so again, Ma?” said Acha.

“Yes, my mom doesn't cry anymore. Mama's already smiling, right? Now what do you want to tell me about Doctor Riki?” ask Nadia.

“Nothing, Ma. No one wants me to tell a story, ” replied Acha nervously.

“Yakin?”

“Iya sure dong ma?” answer Acha.  Though he did want to tell me about Doctor Riki who wanted to take him to dinner.

“Yakin?”

“Iya mama .. no one wants me to tell a story,” Acha replied evasively.

“Do not want to talk about Doctor Riki's dinner call later tonight sunday?” nadia asked with a smile.

“K—kok mama know? Ka—if doctor Riki invites me to dinner?” ask Acha nervously.

“Ya know dong, right before talking to you, Riki to your practice, ask permission to take you to dinner. There was also papa yesterday, so he had said goodbye to mama and papa,” replied Nadia.

“Ih really is that? Keep mama answering what?” tanya Acha is getting curious.

“Kepo, yes?” replied Nadia.

“Ih ... mama always does?”

“Ya mama just answer, you ask yourself Acha, want or not, my same question period? Mama replied so,” explained Nadia.

“Yes, Doctor Riki invited Acha to dinner tonight. Acha confused what he wants to answer, Ma,” said Acha.

“Kok confused? What Riki did was good, he wanted to eat people's girls, but he was just like his parents, and he didn't ask you yet. Now it's up to you, mama and papa already ngizinin, but it depends on you, want or not?” obviously Nadia.

“I even said to Riki, I told the house to say goodbye to mom and dad?” said Acha.

“Keep him how? Say no already saying goodbye to mama and pap?” ask Nadia.

“No, he said yes tomorrow night to come here, after his clinic Opa Akmal,” replied Acha.

Nadia saw Acha as if she had opened her heart about men's affairs. Ever since he liked Zhafran, and was slightly broken in heart by seeing Zhafran's courtship style, he was lazy to know men again. He was afraid to know a man like Zhafran who likes to flirt with girls. Nadia also did not like when Acha knew close to Zhafran, because she knew how her cousin was. His lifestyle is westernized, as well as his courtship style. Nadia is already familiar with dating from Junior High, but she is a natural courtship, unlike Zhafran, probably because Zhafran long lived abroad while studying.

Devan is still in the living room with his two sons, as they always tell about business, because they are both struggling with the business world. Fatih was still thinking about the same year of birth as the year of the death of his father's first wife.

“Pa, I'm papa's biological son, right?” ask Fatih.

“Why ask like that, Brother? Ngawur you ask,” said Shaka.

“Yes, why are you asking like that? Yes obviously you're papa dong's biological son?” answer Devan.

“My biological mother is Mama Nadia, right? Not mom Ica?” ask Fatih again.

“Kok you ask like that? Clearly your birth mother is Mama Nadia? Mama Ica has only one child, sister Acha only. Actually mama Ica was pregnant five times maybe, the first newborn died, and the other miscarriages continue,” explained Devan.

“Oh that? Yes Fatih is just awkward, actually from a long time ago, from Fatih SMA just noticed this awkwardness, Pa,” said Fatih.

“What's the date, brother? You obviously dong biological son mom and dad?” shaka.

“Yes you have a very strange question,” said Devan.

Devan knows where Fatih's question leads. Devan already knew from Nadia, if Fatih often discussed the same year of birth with the year of Acha's death. It's just a different month, a difference of a few months.

“If Fatih's biological child papa and mama, why was Fatih's birth year the same as the year of Ica's death? Only a few months apart. Keep Om Keenan died seems like the difference has not been a year with the birth of me, Pa?” ask Devan.

After that Fatih, he kept wondering in him, his papa was Keenan or Devan. He was also curious, because papa and his mother said, after six months Mama Ica died, her mother had just married her father. And even more awkwardly, Fatih saw a photo of herself wearing a suit similar to her papa. In the photo, her mother is wearing a wedding dress, like newly married.

“Pa, Fatih need an explanation of all that, did you first marry Om Keenan, then papa just married mom after mom Ica died, and I'm already a big girl? Fatih's awkward with this photo, Pa.” Fatih showed me a picture of her mom and dad as a bride, but in the photo Fatih looked big, and was being carried by Devan, wearing a suit similar to Devan. Acha is also big, she is both wearing a dress that is in the same color as the color of Nadia's dress.

Shaka took the photo that Fatih was holding, he was curious as well, because he did not pay much attention to it in detail, unlike Fatih.

“Ih yes, Pa? This is Kak Fatih when papa and mama get married already big you know? Don't-don't be right, Om Keenan's brother's son? Or what, Pa?” shaka.

“Shaka .. talk not like that, true your brother is the biological son of papa, papa does not lie, son,” said Devan. “Papa will explain everything, but papa call mama, huh? Papa asked mama, ready or not mama explained all this,” said Devan.

“Indeed why mom is not ready, Pa?” ask Fatih.

“Mama will explain everything,” said Nadia who just came out of the room with Acha, and heard all the conversations Fatih and Devan.

“Mama sure?” ask Acha.

“Iya, mama sure. It's time you two knew what really happened. Sorry mama, mama has not dared to explain all this to you guys, because mama is shy, son,” Nadia said with tears.

Fatih immediately got up from her seat, when she saw her mother crying. Even with Shaka, he also approached his mother and hugged her.
