Cilla was already sitting opposite to Papi Rudi on the sofa of the family room. His heart was engulfed in disbelief from being able to sit together with Papi Rudi, who somehow was the last time they were in this kind of situation.
It has also been a long time papi Rudi did not invite Cilla to talk together, so Cilla was shocked when Mbak Sumi came to his room and asked him to go down to see Papi Rudi.
“You don't want to sit next to papi ? Small time usually you do not want to be far from papi.”
Papi Rudi patted the sofa next to him and gestured for Cilla to move to sit next to him.
“Why you ? Afraid of being scolded by your JUNA MAS for sitting next to a handsome and established man like papi?” ledek papi Rudi while laughing glancing at his daughter.
Cilla is more astonished to hear the laughter of papi Rudi, not scolding or advice at length because Arjuna caught wet coming to their house as a girlfriend. Moreover, hearing Papi Rudi deliberately pressed his words on the word Mas Juna.
“It looks like Mas Juna is more afraid of being as papi because he has been caught by courting his students. Where the student was the school owner's child anyway,” said Cilla tried to relax and finally make papi laugh.
“She used to be so ugly as a jerk guy who could run away when invited to meet cute girls like you ?” ledek papi Rudi's.
“Soalnya do not know that the jerk guy turned out to be handsome but like jutek if again stained,” said Cilla while laughing.
“So you already know that Arjuna is his son Om Arman ? Since when ?”
“Already Pi,” Cilla nodded. “Not so long ago, but before Mas Juna shot Cilla as his girlfriend. Even Cilla has also met with Om Arman and Aunt Diva during her birthday. But Om Arman forbids Cilla to tell Mas Juna that Cilla is his son papi who wants to be known as Mas Juna.”
“So the story from sebel so love nih ?” ledek papi Rudi again.
“Pengennya sebel continue, Pi, but the same heart mouth can not be compact,” said Cilla while laughing. “The first time Mas Juna entered the class and sat next to Cilla, this heart already wanted to be dislodged, very tight gurgnya.”
Papi Rudi chuckled and pinched both of Cilla's cheeks with an anxious look.
“It turns out this little princess papi is already big. Already can have a sense of palpitations if close to guys.”
Cilla pouted because not only pinched her cheeks, but Papi Rudi also shook his face. But happiness dominated his heart.
“Keep Papi accidentally accepted Mas Juna as a teacher in Guna Bangsa ? And papi knows why Arman still forbids Cilla to tell Mas Juna ?”
Papi Rudi beckoned Cilla to pick up a warm cup of tea that had been prepared by Bik Mina. Finished sipping it a little, Papi Rudi put it back on the table.
“If Arman's problem, he said not enough Arjuna was given a lesson. Om Arman wants Arjuna to really strengthen his heart for you first. Do not let you it is considered only as an escape from his materialistic girlfriend.”
“So om Arman already know that Mas Juna has broken up with Kak Mia ?”
“Mia ?” papi Rudi's forehead is wrinkled. “Mia her son Aunt Sofi ? Sure you if Arjuna's ex-girlfriend who had time to tell Arman the same papi Mia who was?”
“Iya, Pi.” Cilla nodded. “Cilla have met in person. It turns out that at school, Mia's sister introduced herself as Luna, not Mia.”
Cilla also told about his meeting with Mia Luna at the cafe and how they had a fight. It's just that Arjuna's impromptu kiss scene didn't pass the censorship in Cilla's story. It could be that Papi Rudi directly told Arjuna to propose to Cilla because he had dared to nyosor his only daughter.
“It turns out that its nature has not changed even though it is getting older,” said papi Rudi with a sigh.
He looked at Cilla with a sad look. Papi Rudi stroked Cilla's head affectionately.
“You're still angry with you because of Aunt Sofi and Mia?” asked Papi Rudi with a sad face.
Cilla shook her head with a smile. “Cilla never angry with papi, just annoyed because at that time papi did not want to believe Cilla. But it seems that the annoyance was defeated with the taste of Cilla kangen as papi.”
Cilla blinked her eyes, trying to hold back the tears that wanted to come out of her two eyes.
“Excuse papi,” ogre papi Rudi with a smile. “Sorry because papi has been ignoring you since the departure of mami.”
Cilla was no longer able to hold back her sense of smell. He poured into the arms of Papi Rudi and cried on the chest of his beloved man.
“Do not remember the past. Enough from now on Papi has a little time for Cilla, it is certain Cilla will be very happy.”
Papi Rudi still stroked the head of Cilla who was in his arms. He also held back his haru and longing as a father to his only daughter.
“You're increasingly reminding papi of mami. Your face, your forgiving nature, your behavior and many things in Cilla that make papi always remember mami.”
Cilla broke her embrace and looked at Papi Rudi's face with her cheeks still wet. Papi Rudi smiled and took a tissue and cleaned his favorite daughter's face.
Papi Rudi immediately shook his head and kissed his daughter's forehead. His eyes were already reddened holding back the lust that was burning in his heart. Haru was mixed with happiness because his daughter did not put hatred on him.
“Just because papi feels guilty has made Cilla lose her mom at a very small age. If only my mother did not donate her kidneys to papi, maybe my mother would not experience the pain that made her suffer. Plus papi has made the wrong decision by asking Aunt Sofi as a mother continued Cilla.”
“But mami always said that happy mami can make live papi accompany mami. No regrets in the heart of mami.”
Papi Rudi smiled and stroked Cilla's face. It seemed like she had lost many moments in her daughter's life and now she could see that Cilla had grown into a mature and strong girl.
“And the problem of Aunt Sofi is also long gone. At least Aunt Sofi and Mia are no longer bothering, it's just a coincidence that it turns out she's her boyfriend Mas Juna.”
“Im sorry papi,” papi Rudi brought Cilla back into his arms. “Pardon papi for letting you alone grow into an adult. Hopefully papi still has plenty of time to accompany Cilla.”
“But how do you say that?” Cilla immediately stretched out her embrace and looked at Papi Rudi with a pouting face.
Papi Rudi laughed to cover up the sadness of his heart. How he misses seeing Cilla's always funny face when expressing his feelings.
“We have not completed the mission to make Mas Juna aware and sorry for choosing to run away when they want to be reunited with us,” said Cilla excitedly.
Papi Rudi nodded while laughing. He again pinched Cilla's cheek with an anxious face.
“Yakin have the heart to teach his girlfriend the same lesson?” ledek papi Rudi's.
“Why not have the heart?” Cilla frowned with her mouth still pouting. “What papi did deliberately hire Mas Juna to be a teacher in Guna Bangsa in order to meet with Cilla ?”
“If the problem, papi did not know that Mr. Slamet accepted his son Om Arman to teach at school. Mr. Slamet himself knew that Arjuna was Arman Hartono's son from his CV, but did not know that Arjuna was the man to be betrothed to you. Everything is pure due to the element of chance.”
“Keep why did Mr Slamet put Mas Juna to teach 12th grade ? He is a new teacher and has no teaching experience. Shouldn't start teaching in 10th grade first ?”
“If the problem is papi who asked, let you have a chance to work on it. Papi had heard that you often make Arjuna upset because he could never win if he was arguing with you.”
“So when papi came to school, papi already knew that Mas Juna was his son Om Arman ?”
“Iya papi has known since Mr. Slamet reported that his son om Arman has passed the acceptance test for prospective substitute teacher Pak Wahyu. Before going down the Arjuna placement decision letter, of course Mr. Slamet must report the details to papi. And at that time papi just told me about the events of Arjuna's escape and the intention of Arman to match his son with you.”
“So tomorrow morning papi want to talk to Mas Juna to tell him to come here ?”
“You play golf,” Papi Rudi replied casually.
“You want to be your partner and Arman to teach Arjuna a lesson. Where there is a story of such a man leaving this cute and cute papi princess,” said papi Rudi with a laugh.
“Iya said Mas Juna, Cilla tuh bawel really, to the point of being called a duck child with her,” said Cilla with a pouty face.
Cilla was writhing spoiled in the arm of papi Rudi and leaning her head against the man's shoulder.
“Thank you for being a loving baby papi mami and away from hatred,” papi Rudi kissed the head of Cilla who was leaning on him.
“Of course there will always be an apology for papi. People say that the first love of a girl is her father. And make Cilla that right. Papi is Cilla's first love that Cilla always loved,” said Cilla while tightening a hug on the arm papi Rudi.
Both of them were silent with their own thoughts and feelings. There is only one word in common: happiness.
“Oh yes Pi,” Cilla broke his embrace. “Tomorrow if Mas Juna comes do not call Cilla down let alone take breakfast together. Cilla again strike action with Mas Juna.”
“Yakin won't miesel pass the breakfast opportunity with her handsome boyfriend ?” ledek papi Rudi's.
‘Iya sure bingit,” Cilla nodded. “Also papi so can make Mas Juna feel more if it is not easy to get blessing from papi. Do not let the jutek guy run away again once he knows that papi is a friend om Arman.”
Papi Rudi nodded while laughing. In his heart he did not understand God's plan about his son's soul mate.
It never crossed the mind of Papi Rudi to match Cilla with his best friend's child. Papi Rudi gave up entirely on Cilla to choose his life partner, because he himself had felt what it was like to be arranged about a mate.
But who would have thought, the intention of his best friend is like having support from God. Although Arjuna chose to run away and leave his family, he was instead met with a woman who wanted to be betrothed to him.
Papi Rudi was still smiling listening to the babble of his little daughter. Child Duck. It seemed like the call was indeed suitable for this little princess.
May Arjuna be the happiness of your life, Cilla, the prayer of Papi Rudi in his heart.
