BABY SECRET
Chapter 29: Softening

Waiting is a very boring thing for everyone. No exception Reza and Nino, who are now pacing back and forth in Sofia's workspace. The one that was waiting for this has not appeared at all. The night began to crawl up.

“Capek?” reza looked at her son.

“For mom!” Nino's spirit seemed endless.

A faint smile surfaced on Reza's lips. He sat on the sofa and patted her on the thigh, as a gesture for Nino to sleep on her lap.

After all, the boy was still a child. His strength was not comparable to that of an adult man. Tired is so visible from the look of his face. Even though his lips kept dodging.

Nino was excited and immediately broke down her body. His head was in the lap of his father. With repeated touches, it didn't take long, Nino fell asleep.

Reza looked at him fixedly. The boy is much better than him. Since the afternoon, busy helping him, then invite prayer at the musholla office when the time comes, the thing that really makes him embarrassed. A duty he had long abandoned.

 His body bowed, dropping a kiss on Nino's forehead. His heart warmed with a trembling chest. “Sorry Papa, Nino. Papa promised, from now on will keep Nino,” he said in a raucous voice.

...\=\=\=\=ooo\=\=\=\= ...

The clock's almost at 9 p.m. Reza looked towards the door. Her heart riled to imagine Sofia fighting alone there. He understood how Sofia was in position.

Chequek!

Before long, Sofia finally returns. The woman looked surprised when she found Reza in her room. Panic instantly ruled his heart. In a hurry he closed the door.

“Why are you still here, Mas?”

“Ssttt.” Reza put an index finger in her mouth. Then point to the lap.

Intrigued, Sofia tilted her head and took a longer step. “I think he's home,” he said slowly.

“You're done?” ask Reza for attention.

From Sofia's facial features and heavy breathing, it showed how tired she was right now. His head shook slowly, “If I lose in court, I will be responsible,” he muttered uninspired.

It felt like Reza was hugging the woman to give her strength. But Reza held back. He must be patient, so that Sofia does not feel more comfortable with him.

‘I'll pick you up in a third of the night, Sofia,’ murmured in memory of Nino's words, which made her aware. That all that is in this world belongs to God, then he must ask through God also.

“Do not be afraid if you are not wrong. And do not easily believe even with the closest people,” Reza's advice makes Sofia silent for a moment. “Let me drive home.”

“I brought my own car, Mas,” refused Sofia to clear her work desk.

“Emm.” That's Sofia's only truth.

In the heart of course Reza cheered. He immediately carried Nino and took her out. They walked together, passing Widya in the parking lot.

“You, ah. What's the connection with this OB, Sof?” ask Widya.

Reluctant to answer, Sofia just threw a smile while nodding. Not because of anger or heartache, but Sofia's mind was really chaotic and was thinking hard. So not so much noise.

“This is the key,” Reza said after Sofia pressed her car key.

Reza puts Nino in the back seat, opens the door for Sofia and sits behind the wheel. Reza drove the car slowly, turning on the horn as a sign of goodbye to Widya.

Throughout the journey they remained silent. Reza understands that. He also did not want to make Sofia's mood more chaotic.

“Mas, can I ask you tomorrow?”

“Whatever I'll do,” says Reza lightly.

“Nino should be rehearsing in music label company studio at 8 o'clock. Anterin please. You clock that already no work ‘kan?” sofia asked, afraid that tomorrow will not be able to drive Nino. Indeed Tama offers, but he is not comfortable his son with a stranger. Fear of asking for a reward.

“Each 86!” sahut Reza steady. 'It's true said Nino. God is all-good, ' he muttered inwardly smiling happily as Sofia's heart softened. Either because he was having a problem, or he had really softened. Reza doesn't care.

Arriving at Sofia's residence, Reza carried Nino to her room. As he said, the man immediately returned. But not to his rented house. But back to the office.

With Ojol escorted, Reza was back at the office. He told the security guard something was left behind. Luckily, he still wears his OB uniform. It is easy to get access in.

“Huft, hope to get clear proof!” said Reza grabbed his helmet, his cell phone and also Nino's.

Then he went home to see the whole meeting. Hopefully, it can catch the main problem as well as the culprit.

Without changing clothes, Reza immediately connected the entire recording to his laptop. Play the video one by one.
