Bu Nani entered the house with a smile still on her face, her eyes glazed over. It felt like he wanted to immediately sit down with all his family members and preach all that became his source of thought.
"Mbok, please call everyone!" Ms. Nani's orders to the Home Assistant half her baby as soon as she sits on the sofa.
"Oma and opa are in her room. While sir, he just came home. Young Miss is going to be home late because there's an afternoon lecture schedule." Say the middle-aged ART to Ms. Nani.
"All right, it's okay! I'll talk tonight. Please bring me some green tea!" Pinta bu Nani with respect.
"Good mistress."
After the middle-aged ART was no longer visible to her neutrals, Ms. Nani immediately grabbed the bag she had placed on the table, attempted to grab her phone then sent a short message to her confidant.
You're where? Write Ms. Nani full of search. A few seconds later, Ms. Nani received a reply from her message.
The airport!
Is Alan with you? Ms. Nani asked again.
She, madam!
As soon as Alan gets home, there's something important we need to discuss with him!
Okay, madam. I will do!
The reply to the last message Nani had read managed to make her face show off a perfect smile.
"The green tea, nyah!"
"She, thank you." Reply bu Nani short.
"You're home yet? Aren't you going to the TV station? How's it going in there?" Ask opa Ade as soon as she appears in front of Ms. Nani and sits on the sofa, followed by oma Ochi who sits next to her half-husband.
Wrinkling strokes adorn the faces of the oma Ochi and opa Ade, even though they look healthy. Only, their happy faces would instantly disappear once there was someone who offended about the grandchild in front of him.
"Mama's home?" Mr. Otis went with him and sat next to his wife, Ms. Nani.
"Nani's coming home soon because there's something Nani wants to talk about! O yes, well... Don't you have a sidekick who also has a granddaughter Alan's age?" Bu Nani asked Ade opa after putting the green tea cup on her right hand.
"Yes!" Ade's opa reply was brief without asking the direction of her daughter's conversation.
"It's not wrong, the girl's name is Oliv. I met her once, besides the pretty girl is also nice. Nani plans to match Alan to her, what do you think of father and mother? You too, pa, what do you think?"
Hearing the words of his daughter opa Ade can only be upset, of course he was very happy to hear the words of bu Nani because he also expected the same thing, of course, seeing Alan married like a dream that always wanted to be realized opa Ade, the opportunity came without forcing his daughter to be intimate as she usually does.
"Ma, talk to Alan first! papa was afraid that the boy would refuse!" Mr. Otis tried to remind Ms. Nani as much as possible.
"Papa not to worry, Alan will soon arrive." This time Ms. Nani was quite serious about her words.
"Well! Mean mama?"
"It's Otis, your wife is right! It's time for Alan to go home. Even if he doesn't live in this house, that doesn't mean he's not a member of this family anymore. It's time he understood that." Connect Ade's opa without any burden, while Ochi oma could only sigh roughly.

Meanwhile in a different place Araf had just finished his work, his handsome face looked exhausted. For a moment he lay down on the sofa, propping his head up with a small pillow.
Only a day he did not meet with Fazila, but his world felt lonely without the presence of the sweet child.
"Sir, the envelope Mr. Alan gave me, did I drive him to Kiai Hasan's house? You look tired, if you want you can just rest!"
"Geez! I forgot because of the busyness! Nope, no. You don't have to do that. I'll meet Kiai Hasan. Your job is to control me, nothing more." Reply Araf while getting up from the sofa he slept on for no more than ten minutes.
Not only Araf, Kiai Hasan, and Nyai Latifa who missed Fazila, three sweet children who became Fazila's best friend also missed him very much.
Since the morning Lisa, Dena, and Amir choose to be in Pesantren, Pesantren, hoping Fazila would call Kiai Hasan then the three boys planned to join the group and take part in greeting his best friend who is currently in another part of town.
"Lisa, you too! Come and help me! We'll roll out this mat, in the afternoon. If the place njai we clean science will be easy to enter." Dena explained to Lisa as her hands did not stop sweeping the floor of the Hall.
"You children, if your place is clean, God willing, science will be easy to enter." Said Kiai Hasan slowly, apparently the three sweet boys were unconscious since Kiai Hasan watched his movements.
"Assalamu'alaikum's chat..."
Greetings from unexpected guests managed to stop the activity of the sweet boy. All eyes were on the source of the sound, the source of the sound coming from the entrance of the Hall.
"Wa'alaikumsalam Warahmatullah..." Reply Kiai Hasan and the three sweet boys together.
"Son Araf, are you here?"
"Can you help me?"
"I'm sorry, you shouldn't ask me that! Come on, let's go home. There we can have tea casually." Say Kiai Hasan again.
"No need for Kiai. I visited only for a short time, it just so happened that my best friend left this, he said to the boarding school. Inevitably I should hand it over to Kiai immediately." Say Araf in a relaxed tone.
Kiai Hasan received the envelope that Araf gave her, then slowly opened it and looked at the contents. Netra Kiai Hasan rounded as soon as he saw what was stored in it.
"Alhamdulillah." Kiai Hasan's words were spontaneous, followed by Araf's gaze which explained his curious attitude.
"What's Kiai? Did Alan write anything bad?"
"No, son. I'm so grateful, Alan's son isn't here anymore, but he's left something big." Say Kiai Hasan with a face filled with smiles. Kiai Hasan showed the contents of the envelope that Araf carried, a check containing numbers that Alan wrote with his hands, a number that is not small, one hundred million rupiah.

"Sir, we're here!" Said Bobby in a soft voice.
"Aahhhhhhhhhh... Really true?" Slowly I opened my eyes, I was surprised to see that Bobby did not take me to my house, he actually took me to the house occupied by members of the Wijaya family.
"Are you not sane! I said I'd go home, not to opa's. Quick turn around!" My orders were to Bobby in a rude voice.
Just as the car we were driving was moving, mama came out of the house, calling my name while waving her hand.
I realized running at this time wouldn't help.
I hope there won't be a big problem like last time.
"Darling, have you arrived? Let's go in, there's something important you want to say." Mama opened the car door and grabbed my arm, not usually mama was aggressive, I was sure mama had planned things that would harm me.
"Do you want to eat?"
"No, ma. Alan is full!"
"Ooohhh well, then we'll just talk."
"Organ." Oma Ochi came closer to me hugging me and then kissed me on my forehead.
Papa did the same, hugged me and patted me on the shoulder while showing off his happy smile because he could see me again in the house of Wijaya, the house I left five years ago.
Opa Ade, today he looks the same, fierce face without a smile. Sitting near a small table lying on his right side.
"You said you didn't want to eat, so mom would talk to her core. Get married, you've found a beautiful and kind girl for you, her name is Oliv, she's the granddaughter of your grandfather's best friend."
Mama's short words were like a rumble that broke my heart, how could she possibly ask me to marry a woman I had never seen and heard her name.
I directed my net toward four people I respected a lot, mama, papa, oma, and opa. I looked at their faces one by one, those faces no longer looked friendly, I was sure this time mama would definitely urge me to get married soon, urging that there was no other way for me other than to reject her, either in a gentle way or in a rough way.
