Aliyah was still very happy with the things she was experiencing today, starting from the very beautiful sunset, the road on the bridge of sinur, and now seeing the beautiful city of padang from up here. Everything is so beautiful for Aliyah, Aliyah is very happy tonight, yes maybe because this will be her last moment with Jack, because soon they will be separated far .
"Jack.I'm so glad you brought me here, I can see the lights of the ship and the vast sea from up here, thanks Jack"
"i'd rather see you're happy Aliyah"
"you're cool, you know a good place like gini hehe" praised Aliyah, who was immediately embarrassed to say Jack was cool.
"haha you're the one who realized too late Aliyah, I was cool from the beginning anyway" said Jack started PD again.
"i'm grateful to live in this city of Lia, this city is beautiful, yes even though it's not my home town" Jack said.
"you mean?you're not a native of the field?" ask Aliyah
"i was born in Jakarta, my papa mother is also a Jakarta person, only.after I was six years old I moved here, along with my mama and my late stepfather" replied Jack.
Aliyah remembered the story of when she rejected Jack first, and when she mentioned Jack's stepfather, Aliyah began to be curious and asked. "why can move Jack? what's going on?" ask Aliyah.
Jack sighed and turned to Aliyah. "i also don't know why, which I remember me and my mother being kicked out by my own biological father from his house, then my mother and I were taken away by my stepfather to this city, because this is his home town, and yes, I spent my childhood and my adulthood here, and this city is like my hometown" Jack explained.
"sorry Jack, he used to tell me that your stepfather.."
not finished talking Jack directly cut.
"yes, my stepfather's name is Baron, he's a thug, but he's kind and affectionate with my mama, so I love him too, too, he saved me and my mother who was dumped by my biological father, he took care of me and my mother, and financed our lives, and when he's gone for good I've lost him so much" replied Jack, now saddened.
"Jack.I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you sad"
"no matter what Aliyah is, I feel I have to tell you the same story, sooner or later you will also know" said Jack smiling.
"being a thug wasn't what I wanted, Aliyah, when I graduated from Baron's father's High School, died under attack from a group of strangers in the market, at first I was going to college even my stepfather was very supportive of me to college, however, as he was dying he asked me to continue his duty of keeping peace in the market, protect small traders and market people from evil thugs who like to be lazy and abusive, everyone at the market knew that I was Baron's son a market thug who was very much feared and respected, so when I was a thug when I graduated from school, I was a big boy, everyone's been disinclined and scared of me, yes, because my father's connection was very strong"
"now I understand why you were so good when we first met" Aliyah smiled. Jack also returned an Aliyah smile
"continue..papa you are in Jakarta how Jack?" ask Aliyah.
Jack sighed "huf, I never met him Aliyah, even though he never after he upset me and my mama, and he didn't care about us anymore either, even if he never came to see me and my mom, I already assumed he never existed in this world" Jack replied
Aliyah seemed to want to talk again but Jack immediately cut "aliyah, do not discuss papa I yes, I really do not want to talk about her anymore, yes..if you think I'm an ungodly child it's okay, but I beg you, don't talk about him.."
"yes Jack.I understand Jack, but you don't be sad, you are sad in a place as beautiful as this" said Aliyah.
"yes I won't be sad, thanks Aliyah"
"thank you for what?"
"it's all God's destiny Jack, you know who you deserve to thank" Aliyah replied.
Jack understood.
.
Exactly at ten o'clock in the night, Jack has now delivered Aliyah to the gate of her house.
Lucky dad and umi are not at home because they are still out of town and only come back tomorrow, so jack does not have to worry, so does Aliyah.
"sorry, you're coming home tonight" Jack said
"i'm okay Jack, don't apologize, I'm happy today you've taken me to a beautiful place" replied Aliyah
"then you go Lia, you are good yes, go and go home safely" said Jack.
"god willing Jack for sure, I beg your prayers as well" replied Aliyah. Jack nodded and smiled
"if I come in, tomorrow you have to pack and prepare, you go home hearty yes" said Aliyah
"iya Aliyah, assalamualaikum pretty angel" said Jack
Aliyah smiled shyly at the beautiful angel's words. "waalaikumsalam" replied Aliyah.
.
Aliyah laid her body on the bed, she was indeed tired but also happy, her tiredness was comparable to what she experienced today.
"thank you God, a tired but beautiful day, all the blessings of MU Rabb, and Jack thank you, I love you" Aliyah said in her heart.
Meanwhile, when he arrived at the house Jack saw the mama who was fast asleep, before long Jack's phone rang. There's an incoming call.
"assalamualaikum aunt" said Jack
"waalaikumsalam jeff, sorry if aunt called you at night, aunt just want to know the news of you and your mama" said the woman who is none other than aunt Susan, brother of mama Jack.
"mama.mama.hem yesterday mama drop and in care again tan, but now mama has been at home and the condition of mama has started to stabilize" replied Jack.
"astagfirullah.Yeah of Juita..Jeffry aunty has said that if your mama drop kabari aunty immediately, aunt also entitled to know the condition of your mama jeff"
"yes sorry Jeff tan, yesterday Jack panicked to forget ngabarin aunt"
And so, there was a long conversation between the aunt and her nephew, a shocking news for Jack, which will be discussed in the next episode.
