A Million Love For Alana
The Hardest Part is Not Broken Heart (Ending)

Hearing his mami-papi to Jogja by using a motorcycle, Lina was so worried. With Zhafran. Not just Arkan and Thalia's kids. Fatih, Shaka, and Acha are also very worried to hear Ardha who tells her that her mom and dad are going to Jogja on a motorcycle like young people.

“Lan, don't let mommy and dad come home on a motorcycle. This is mommy just as you think she's young or what the hell? No more fancy events? It's worth it once lonely today there is no phone or chat from papa mama, who usually ask me with a healthy husband and child or not?” said Acha over the phone.

“Iya, Brother. I told you, I will take Ardha home, or use travel or train,” replied Alana.

“No need, Lan. We have plans to vacation there the day after, so let papa and mama come with us later, Om Arkan and Aunt Lia also,” said Acha.

Ardha is still on the phone with Zhalina. Lina really doesn't understand her mommy and papa. Indeed, lately, if you go to Lina's house, Arkan and Thalia prefer to use a motorcycle, rather than using a car.

“Papi sama mami seems to be having motoran fever, Ar. Kayak is reminiscing about his youth. Yes no wonder anyway, maybe kangen his youth first, let alone mami same papi right now, so yes so. Already, do not be scolded continue to papi with his mother, let it be. Later the day after sister came, had made the same agreement with her brothers Alana as well. If we want a vacation there, so let mami be there first, later go home with me,” said Lina.

“Before I want to take it with me, if you want a vacation here ya nice dong, we gather all here, anyways it's been a long time too, right? Don't hang out together?” ardha.

“Yes too, brother also miss you, long time no see you,” said Lina.

Ardha ended her phone with her sister. He helps Alana prepare tea and food for people to know them. Devan and Arkan are seen lying on a carpet in the middle, straightening their legs, as all joints feel stiff and achy.

“What wisdom, Dev? Tired turns out, Dev?” arkan.

“Yes that way, enjoy it, is it earlyatin anyway? Thank God you got here, safely, though tired not playing,” Devan replied.

“Iya right, that Thalia alone is hanging her legs, he said achy once,” Arkan said.

“Sama alah, Nadia who said earlier was not tired of being exhausted kok,” said Devan.

“I don't think he's tired? I think he's really excited?” arkan.

“Iya looks, spirit, but yeah tired too. Is it natural to travel far? Fifteen hours, right? We were young, right? I think until Jogja fit Adzan Maghrib at that time,” said Devan.

“Iya right, we pray and then find lodging at that time,” replied Arkan.

Ardha approached those who were talking while unwinding. “Have you remembered his youth? Good pa, pi? Tired not?” ask Ardha.

“Huh, steady! But I think this is the last touring far away, no longer ah,” replied Arkan.

“Ya is tired, Ar, but happy, to meet you and Alana. I have met a healthy and fine daughter-in-law, tired of being ilang,” Devan replied.

“Ya's right, Dev. Moreover, have you seen our grandchildren, who are getting bigger, and healthier? Capeknya ilang,” said Arkan.

“So I heard papa tired?”

“Yes tired, but tired not in vain, Dev. Replace everything,” Devan replied.

“Hmm that, huh? There is an herbal drink, so that the body is not sore, Iwan madein,” said Ardha.

“Wah .. thank you, Wan!” arkan said spirit.

“Iya, Om. Drink it first, let it sleep later, later it bathe him using lemongrass water as well, let his body enjoy,” replied Iwan.

Devan and Arkan agree with Iwan's words, he immediately drank the herbal drink Iwan made, and they brought it to his wife who was in his room. So drink too.

Arkan and Devan have been at Ardha's house for two days. His fatigue has been replaced with a sense of happiness to be able to play with his grandson. For a month they had not met. While playing with Askara, four cars stopped in front of Ardha's house. Arkan and Devan know whose car it is. That's their kids' car.

“Kok them on to here, Pi?” ask Thalia.

“Maybe they know we're here?” answer Arkan.

“Iya, surely Alana same Ardha told them nih,” said Nadia.

“Prepared to spray Acha ni papa, Ma?” devan.

“Yes the same, mama also certainly,” replied Alana.

“Not just you guys, this must be Lina same Zhafran madirin me too,” Arkan said.

“Iya, Pi. Surely they ngomelnya not stop-stop,” said Thalia.

“A risk dong? Is papi sama mami that, not saying good to them? Papi mami is our responsibility, there is nothing like mami papi, right we must intervene? What if there was nothing on the road yesterday? Don't we know anything, Pi, Mi?” Ardha.

“Iya anyway, but already, papi mami, and your in-laws are healthy, there is nothing, just that no longer want to go back using the motor, if there is no they pick up, yes, we want to go home by train,” said Arkan.

They all got out of the car, and were immediately greeted by Ardha and Alana, as well as their parents.

“Here you are, Pa, Ma? This is the last time, if you want to come here, use a car will exist, or driven by a driver, or if you want to enjoy the trip using public transportation yes use the train or travel, do not motor again, do not drive again,” said Fatih.

“Iya papa ih, I heard her horrified, papa to Jogja on a motorcycle,” timpal Shaka.

“He is no longer, papa promised,” Devan said.

Zhafran from earlier hugged his papi. He was worried, but he was more silent, because he knew what his hobbies were. He just patted his papi on the shoulder, because he was proud to still be able to motor to Jogja.

“Zhafran salut anyway, still strong also waist papi?” zhafran.

“Yes this way, your papi is strong right?”

“Iya, yes .. but yes, Pi? This is the last time,” pinta Zhafran. “If papi is anything, for example, where to go, lazy steering your own car, continue to have no driver, papi is there Zhafran? I'm papi's son, if anything says dong, Pi?”

“Iya sorry, was papi want to give a surprise to Ardha and Alana, but instead he called you to come here?”

“Ih I'm the same Lina does want to come here, want Lina to take a vacation, and I have a job, so all together. Fatih, Acha, Shaka, they deliberately want a vacation here kok,” said Zhafran.

Ardha's house is very crowded all his brothers in their house, he said they did want a vacation, and it turns out they have agreed to rent a villa, to Ardha's house just to play and find Askara.

“So you guys have rented a villa for the holidays?” ask Alana.

“Yes, is it the plan for the holidays? Continue later here, because your kangen,” replied Acha.

Alana is so happy that all her family is gathered at her house this afternoon. Ardha was the same, let alone seeing Zhafran who had been quite improved by Zhalina, since Zhafran left Alana, all became away from Zhafran, even with his parents. Arkan also became indifferent to Zhafra, but just now seeing Zhafran giving more attention to his papi, and his papi also received Zhafran's advice well, Ardha was relieved, and she was happy, her brother was no longer cueki by papi, mami, and Zhalina.

Alana is so happy to be with her family again. After decades apart from his biological parents, he can now gather again with his biological parents and siblings. Alana is grateful, she is in the world of people who love her so much. His father and mother, his adoptive mother, husband, and brothers loved Alana very much.

Although decades did not meet, but they really love and accept Alana sincerely.

Devan and Nadia. Decades of waiting for his missing biological son, finally met too. He did not think that his son was Alana. Ayleen is Alana, the girl he loves, although he does not know that Alana is his biological child.

P.O.V Alana's

I don't know what to be happy about anymore. Now I have a family that really loves me and loves me. Papa, mother, mother, husband, Askara and my sisters, also budhe and Iwan. They are the most precious treasure of my life.

After thousands of full moons I searched for who my biological parents were, I finally met, and the meeting was the most moving one. When I was down because I was betrayed by my husband, and I was two, they were present to complete me. Mom finally explained who my real parents were. Although I was initially disappointed that for decades, my mother covered it up, but I realized that my mother did it because she was afraid of losing me. I understand it, maybe I will too. Decades of not having children, once finding a child, is unlikely to want to let go.

Even though mom was just my foster mother, she loved me so much, she was the one who made my life strong against anything. Strong against my husband's betrayal as well long ago. Leaving me behind, when I was pregnant with Askara.

Now my life is so much better, when I find a man who loves me so sincerely. This is Ardha, my ex-husband's sister. Funny sounds. Married to former sister-in-law. Didn't expect Ardha to love me so much, ever since she first met me. She harbored the feeling for years, until I was going to marry her brother she had not expressed her love for me. I'm happy to have it.

I looked out, to the terrace of my house which was crowded with my brothers and Ardha who were on vacation in my city. They were gathering, telling stories, joking laughs, and happy.

“Sayang ... happy to see them get along?” said Mas Ardha while hugging me from behind.

“Iya, they are so compact now,” I replied.

“All this is because of you, dear,” said Mas Ardha.

“Because of me?”

“Yes, because you can reconcile them all, you can tighten the rope of their brotherhood. Although we are still one big family, but we rarely get together so warmly. There is any event not as warm as this nuansi,” said Mas Ardha.

“Not, Mas. All this is not because of me, but look there, all can laugh happily because there is Askara in the middle of them,”.

“Iya's right, Lan. There's Askara, so they're happy. Askara brings peace to all.” Mas Ardha.

Although I am far from them all, but it feels like once a month my house is crowded because of their arrival. They always took the time to come here to look at us, to ask about our situation. Maybe because we are the farthest away from them, so they often come here, visit us, because indeed we rarely go back to Jakarta.

I am lazy if I often go back to Jakarta, unless there is a need, if not here. Jakarta is a city full of wounds. There I felt a deep betrayal. But never mind, it's all over. And I'm here to find my happiness.

Everyone deserves to be happy, me too. Let all the memories in the city disappear on their own, without me walking through life there.

“I'm lucky to have you, dear,” whispered Mas Ardha.

“I'm also lucky to have you, Mas. Thank you for the million loves you have given me. I don't know if I didn't meet you, after I broke my heart because of your brother. Ever since I had a heartbreak that completely ruined my life I tried to take my mind off you, I was too afraid of heartbreak again. But life should be able to go on as usual, right? Because I realized, it wasn't my body that was broken. It's just my heart, and you managed to assemble that broken heart, to be as perfect as it is now.” I kissed Mas Ardha's hand.

The hardest part is not heartbreak. However, the hardest part is when we are going through that heartbreak alone. No friends to exchange ideas with. When I met Ardha, a piece of heart that escaped because it had been broken, managed to be reassembled with the love that Ardha offered for me. A sincere and selfless love.
