Father's Status On My Son's Deed
32. Arrive in the village

Roni had finished refueling, waiting for a while, but she did not find Asha returning from the toilet. Therefore, Roni followed Asha and did not find Bik Ika there. He felt that something was amiss here and tried to look everywhere.

Bik Ika had seen and observed from the glass door minimarket in the gas station area. Though he had finished buying something for the reason of going to that place. The woman's gasps came out from inside there as Roni looked for Asha to the front of the toilet.

“Pak!” call Bik Ika.

“Mana Asha?” roni asked who was getting upset.

“Loh, nothing inside?” ask Bik Ika with a face that is confused.

“I've gone inside, but she's not there!” roni said that was getting upset.

“Times anyway, Sir?”

“You can find it yourself!” the man said angrily while kicking the empty air with his feet. Upset because Asha seemed to be running away.

Bik Ika came out of the toilet and put on a confused face. In his heart he kept praying that his master would get further away from there.

“You've been anywhere since, huh!” exclaim Roni angry.

“I found this for Khairi. The problem was just replaced pampers instead defecate. So Neng Asha asked me to find pampers,” Bik Ika test while showing the object he just bought in the minimarket. He lowered his head, pretending to be afraid of the anger of this man in front of him.

Roni was already unwilling to speak anymore, he muttered in annoyance and called for Asha to run away from him for not taking the child to the orphanage.

“Akh! Damnit!” the middle-aged man's lick kicked the tire of his car quite fast. Nisa who was in the car was shocked to see her husband's angry behavior outside.

“What's up, Pa?” nisa asked confusedly out of the car and looked at the husband who was standing on the other side of the car.

“Your son ran away!” Roni.

“Kabur? Escape to where?” ask Nisa. Suddenly his feelings were not good, his guilt was growing.

“Yes, where do I know!” said the man with annoyance while looking around there. Roni looked at Bik Ika who was nearby. “You helped Asha escape?” the man asked intimidating Bik Ika.

“Ngak, Sir. I don't know, I swear. I go to minimarket and buy pampers,” said Bik Ika once again showed the bag of white crackle with minimarket writing to Roni.

Roni was upset, opened the car door and went inside by slamming the door hard. Nisa and Bik Ika came in. The car left the gas station immediately. He looked around the street, who knew his daughter was there. The man was sure Asha was not far away, let alone by carrying a child.

“Pa, we need to find Asha as soon as possible. What if there's nothing with them? Same with our children and grandchildren?” said Nisa.

Bik Ika stroked her chest in relief as Roni did not question her further.

‘May Neng Asha and Khairi be fine there,’ Inner Bik Ika in his heart.

Meanwhile, across the street, after making sure her father's car was away, Asha got off the angkot which stopped because there were passengers wanting to board. He rode on the ojek that was around and immediately went in the opposite direction to the father.

Crying accompanied the departure of Asha who rode the motorbike, she hugged the son who was now sleeping soundly after he suckled her earlier. The woman felt guilty, but had no other choice.

‘Sorry, Papa, Mama,’ Inner Asha sad.

He had to leave the two men because he did not want to leave his son in an orphanage. It's not fair for her baby to live like this, but it's not her fault at all. No one wants that to happen.

A bad thing happened to him when he came home from work. In the middle of the road he was confronted by a drunken thug, Asha tried to scream and ask for help, but his strength was outdone by the man. He eventually lost his crown. The woman felt her life was so ruined, she wanted to tell her parents everything when they got home.

Her parents are out of town, so Asha only lives at home with the housekeeper. When Papa Roni and Mama Nisa came home, they complained about failing with the project. The company also loses. Seeing his parents who had problems, made Ara urung tell him what happened. Later when everything improved, but it did not happen until now.

The bad thing made Asha mentally fall, had blamed herself. He decides to meet Arvin, his ex-girlfriend. However, after meeting and telling Arvin, the man got angry and broke off their relationship. All this time his former lover had been trying to keep Asha, but now it was still tarnished.the man left him just like that and decided to leave this city.

"Assalamualaikum," said Asha while looking around.

He had arrived at Bik Ika's hometown. The woman was hesitant to go there. However, there was no place and destination other than here. Asha also has a child, unable to work and leaves her child alone. He hopes while living here can get a job while looking after his son. Whatever it is it will do as long as it is halal.

"Assalamualaikum," Asha said again while knocking on the door harder, hoping the homeowner would come out soon.

Not long after the door opened, a teenager opened the door. He watched Asha from top to bottom with a questioning look.

"Sorry, Mom, with whom, huh?" ask the girl.

"My name is Asha, Bik Mina who asked me to come here," replied Asha who actually felt bad, but as much as possible she removed the thought. This is all for the sake of the son. Anything he would do included lowering his pride.

"Oh yes, grandma told me. Please enter! Mama's behind, I've been waiting, I'll call."

Asha nodded and followed him inside. He sat in the living room, while the girl went inside the house, probably calling his mother. This house is not too big, but it is quite comfortable to live in. During this time Bik Ika also always sends salary money to his children and grandchildren.

Though they have said no need because in the village also they have worked, but Bik Ika still forced. After all he worked for what else if not for children and grandchildren. The woman also knew very well that in the village her work was very hard.
