GRINNED
CHAPTER 21: Mommy

Zaidan was really shocked by what Syarief said over the phone. That someone wanted to poison his daughter. Syarief did not see the incident himself. 2 friends, who were sitting outside after the Ashar prayer, who witnessed it firsthand. While enjoying the twilight on the veranda of the airport mosque.

There was someone who brought a chocolate tart, decorated with cherry and oranges, approached Anya and gave it away clandestinely. But Anya instead ran away in fear and went into the mosque, meeting her father, who was engrossed in chatting with Sharief. This left the mysterious man disappointed. And just throw it, the bread tart into the grass behind the fence. Come the sparrow who was perched on the branch of the tree down, eating the tart. Fly again on the branch. Then the bird fell into a frenzy. After a while, the bird no longer moved. Likewise the fate of 3 birds came later. Experiencing the same thing.

It's a shame they have to leave soon. So that I can't investigate further. Most importantly Anya, daughter of Zaidan survived.

Is there really anyone who wants to poison my daughter? His mind was completely muddled, with events that almost plucked the soul of his only daughter. Sometimes he looked back, maybe someone followed him. Fortunately this time Anya was in her arms. So that he can protect her well. While walking on alert.

O Allah. Please this servant ... I almost neglected. The whisper of Zaidan in the heart.

Zaidan continued walking until he arrived at the pick-up room. Hiding all that anxiety in the heart.

"Mommy." shouted Zaidan looking at the woman in brackets typical of Malay, walking out accompanied by 2 people beside him. Her foster sister is named Lisa. The other was a man, stout-looking, tall, and had big hair.

"Well, it's the eyes of the dear princess." she immediately came down from Zaidan's sling. Run for him. Without regard to the surroundings. So it almost collided with someone who was wearing a black suit and sunglasses as well. Stop running for a moment, watching the person. There was a look of fear on his face. Until he took a few steps back. But soon he regained consciousness and walked back quickly towards his eyes.

"Daughter ...." 

Then he grabbed and kissed his daughter's hand with reverence.

"Well. It's been great apparently." mommy crouched down, welcoming him with warm hugs and kisses on both cheeks.

"It's kangen, Eyang." while staring at his eyes spoiledly.

"Same. Oh, too."

Then Zaidan followed behind him. And kissed her mommy's hand with the takdhim anyway. Hugged the mommy who had been raising him.

I want him to spill what he's been feeling all along. The burden of his life was even what had just happened to Anya. But all that was held in his chest, to make him tight. He realized this was not the right time. Tried with all her heart to hide her fretfulness and sadness in her pure smile.

"Zaidan, you look skinny now." In his presence, his adopted son was affectionate. He could feel what was raging in his adopted son's heart. Although hidden in a genuine smile. Which parents can be lied to.

"Cooking, Mom." said Zaidan with a free laugh as if there were no burdens.

Then turned his eyes to his mommy's side.

"Sister Lisa. Thank God, brother came too."Zaidan greeted his foster brother.

"Sister-in-law's not coming, sister."

"No. Brother only 2 days. There's a seminar here."

"Zaidan, meet Aldo. Private detective. Mommy intentionally brought in, to help you." For a moment Zaidan was silent.

This may be the answer you give, O God. For the problems I am facing right now.

"Ah, yes. I'm Zaidan. Nice to meet you." Zaidan extended his right hand to shake his hand. Warmly welcomed by Aldo.

"I'm Aldo. Please cooperate with him."

"alright. Then we go home, Mon."

"Yes, I'm tired too. And this granddaughter of Eyang, also had to take a bath." while gently stroking Anya's cheek. You said, just a smile.

"Former dad just forgot the time" he replied in self-defense. Everybody laugh. Zaidan laughed as well to cover up his embarrassment.

My daughter ... Don't be so innocent. I am ashamed of you ....

They walk in tandem. Anya in her father's arms.

"Lho, Eyang's grandson is still asking for a sling."

"Wild, Mom. It's my duty."

Zaidan couldn't possibly explain the events that had just happened.

"Yes already" he replied, glancing at Aldo. And Aldopun nodded his head with a narrowing of his eyes as if he agreed with what Zaidan had done to his daughter. Although Zaidan's face looked very tired. And Aldo willingly carried the suitcase to the parking lot.

"Let me take the car this time, Mr. Zaidan." After putting all the items into the trunk.

"All right." Zaidan gave Aldo the keys. He opened the door for his mother and brother.

"I am the same princess" Anya said as she came down from her father's sling.

"Yes. Father." he replied with a frown.

"Come, Mr. Aldo" said Zaidan after sitting quietly with Aldo behind the wheel.

"Why, Mr Zaidan?"

Zaidan turned on the navigation in his mobile app. Give to Aldo who reads it quickly, before turning on the machine.

For a moment Zaidan could rest his mind. Enjoy traveling with people who care and love you.

It didn't take long to reach Zaidan's house with a reliable driver. The one Hendiyana's mother brought. It was as if he knew this location well. He just came to this town.

"Right be this way, sir?" Aldo asked as the direction of navigation led to the quiet streets in the middle of the rice fields.

"Yes." replied Zaidan.

Aldo nodded.

"Follow the direction."

" Good."

"I'm sorry, his house is in the middle of the paddy fields." replied Zaidan.

"That's how you feel, so you have to hide."

"I don't know. What is clear is that my daughter needs a different atmosphere in order to quickly forget the tragic events."

"Why until now, the police have not been able to catch the culprit."

"Content.when .... We'll talk about that."

Zaidan was aware that his daughter was watching his conversation with Aldo.

"Where to go, Mr. Zaidan." asked Aldo as he approached the intersection.

"Right turn."

"My house is in front of it" said Zaidan pointing out the direction.

After arriving, it was seen that Mr. Tata opened the gate. So that the car can go directly to the yard. Mr. Aslam helped get all the items out of the trunk of the car. Then bring him into the house.

"That's just taken to the back. To be washed immediately bi Rahma." said Zaidan.

"Where have you come from, Zaidan" said mommy. Seeing so many wet items . carried by Mr. Aslam.

"Yes ... follow the wishes of my beloved granddaughter." replied Zaidan casually as he glanced at the ecstatic Anya, because the longed grandmother had come.

"Yes, Eyang. We ran out of the beach with Dinda's ammah." Anya replied innocently. Inevitably made Miss Hendiyana, mommy Zaidan smiled meaningfully. So did Lisa, her sister.

"Who is Dinda's ammah, dear." asked Miss Hendiyana with a smile.

"Anya's mother."

My daughter ... don't say that first as your daughter's eyes. Berabe ....

But nevermind. Zaidan gave up already caught with his mommy.

"Anya's mother?!"

"Yes. I call mother ... ammah Dinda is okay .." she replied innocently.

"That's good" said mrs Hendiyana as she stared at Zaidan sharply but gurgled.

"Zaidan ... Why don't you tell mommy sich. Let me camouflage." said Miss Hendiyana in a rather high voice, leaving Zaidan shocked.

But then, Zaidan was just grinning.

"Mommy just came, right!"
