Long enough Kai thought, he didn't sleep all night thinking about his father's words.

Their conversation last night was still clearly ringing in his ears.

Huff Hah's..

What am I supposed to do? I didn't want to go back, and my father and mother forced me.

Huff...

Again there was the sound of Kai's heavy breathing. It's really hard for her.

After breakfast, Kai would usually go around the village. Or go to the village's central library in search of a book she has never read.

However, this time Kai chose to return to his room. His brain can't work properly at the moment. His mood for reading books is absolutely nonexistent.

"What's wrong with Kai?" ask Haico's mom. He stared at the departure of his nephew questioningly.

"Tumben really went back to the room" he murmured again.

"Kai must be confused Mom, he forced the same uncle to return to the city. But, Kai doesn't want to" Haico explained.

Haico's mother's face looked surprised. She doesn't know what her problems are, but she doesn't like her sister doing this to her niece.

Haico saw his mother was about to contact his uncle. With a quick gesture Haico held back the hand of her mother who was already holding her mobile phone.

Haico's mother looked questioningly at her son, at what he was currently doing.

However, Haico shook his head slowly.

"Mom, no. Let Kai decide everything. It's about his future" Haico said.

Faidah who heard the words of his granddaughter smiled proudly. Haico already understood what he said yesterday.

"Smart kid" murmured Faida looked at Haico.

In the room.

Drr....Drrr...

Kai glanced at his cell phone, he saw a message from Kak Viona.

From Viona

So, not back? my father has not eaten for two days.

Shock, of course Kai was surprised to read the short message his brother sent.

Her lentic finger instantly danced over the phone screen to reply to her sister's message.

To Kak Viona's

Why that? tell me to eat. Your father will be sick.

Drrr...

Kai immediately opened the message from his older brother, he was very worried about the health of his two parents.

From Kak Vion's.

They don't want to eat, before Lo gets home.

Deg.

Kai fell silent again, his father and mother really reckless.

What am I supposed to do? do I have to go home and go back to the city?

No, I can't see that guy anymore. I'm not Sudi.

But what should I do? My mom wouldn't eat if I didn't come home

Arggc.... Kai groaned to himself, he growled and monologued to himself like a madman.

It was really a difficult decision for Kai.

Huhhhh..

With a gust of frustration, Kai finally decided to return. He is more concerned with his parents than his past.

Kai packed his things, he was going to leave today to X city. Where his parents and two brothers lived.

While in another place, Fahmi, Tari and their two children sit at the dining table. They were enjoying their lunch with curious hearts.

"Are you sure that by threatening like that Kai will come home?" ask Ferdian please be anxious.

"Of course, I'm sure your daughter will be back soon"

"When not how?" yell at Viona.

"Just calm down, we'll use the second way" replied Tari smilingly comforting her son.

"What?" ask Viona curiously.

"Later you will know for yourself " replied Tari glancing at her husband. Because last night Dari and Fahmi had everything planned.

"Hum.." muttered Viona nodding resignedly.

They finally resumed their delayed lunch.

...----------------...

Haico stood at the door of the house, staring at Kai who was holding his suitcase. He still could not believe it, Kai finally decided to return.

Between happy and sad, Haico could only smile at his cousin.

"Hopefully this is your best deck decision" Haico exclaimed patting Kai on the shoulder.

Kai replied with a thin smile, in his eye patch, already piled up tears that were ready to plunge if he blinked his eyes just once.

However, Kai tried to hold her back. He must not be sad, whatever he will take later, he will be ready to accept.

"Don't be sad, I'll be here often. For me, the distance of the house with the village is not far" comforted Kai.

Haico nodded, he hugged his cousin. Women who have been accompanying her daily life on plantations and farms. Kai is Haico's confiding friend. And vice versa.

Kai turned to look at the grandmother. The old woman who often becomes Kai's quarrel friend.

"Often come here, I will miss our quarrels" said Faidah.

Kai nodded, he hugged his grandmother tightly.

"I went to fulfill Grandma's words, trying to succumb to the past. "reply Kai again.

Faidah nodded slowly, he rubbed his grandchildren's cheeks, then peeked his forehead.

"Learn the diligent, in your new school later, bring me your good grades when school holidays later" cried Faidah trying to hold back tears so as not to drip.

Kai nodded slowly, tears managed to escape the corner of his eyes. She couldn't help it anymore, Kai hugged her grandmother.

"Kai will miss grandma" she cried.

"Well, I'm gonna miss you, too, my granddaughter"

Kai cries in his grandmother's arms, then turns to his beautiful aunt.

"Bi, Kai says yes."

"Dear, good luck in town. Later often come here" said Haico's mother.

Kai nodded slowly, his lips twitching at grandma, Haico and also his aunt. Kai doesn't want to leave this place. But he also could not stay. Maybe, it's time he returned with his father and mother.8 years is not a short time.

"Come on, we're going to the airport now. Later the hunt is late "remember the driver who Faidah assigned to arrange for Kai's return.

Kai nodded, he looked at his grandmother. They embraced back. Haico too, hugged Kai before the girl got into the car.

"Beauty heart" Haico's mother.

"Call grandma when you arrive" Faidah.

"After graduating high school, I'll be there" Haico.

Kai smiled bitterly, he got into the car. Staring at Haico's grandmother and Haico's mother was sad.

"I'm leaving" cried Kai. They nodded, waving their hands to see the car that was riding Kai running away from the large yard of the house of Faidah.

Huff..

Kai sighed deeply, wiping away his rough tears.

I cannot be weak, I must be strong. Distance is nothing.

Kai tried to encourage himself. He did not want to look weak in the eyes of others. He must be strong and can't be guessed by those whom Kai doesn't like.
