GRINNED
CHAPTER 25: Conquering the Heart of Dinda

Aldo drove the car astonished at the sight of the two of them. They are quiet. Even though they are close to each other. Like there's nothing between them. It's just that both of them seem to smile while staring at their respective phone screens. A different style of courtship than he used to meet.

Want to tease them but not the heart. All he could do was whistle weakly singing the song he could. Because the voice he had had a characteristic of wet rasp. To be heard there is no courage. Afraid of backfiring.

But there's a second option. It turns on the recorder type. Playing a romantic song he likes. But Zaidan clucked angrily at her. Fortunately, there was no sight of Dinda who was smiling looking at her phone.

"Whisper" said Zaidan.

This is the difficulty of waiting for a courtship person whose status is unclear. Instead of me being silenced like this, it's better to follow the conversation with them. Envy is done ....

"Zai, is that your boyfriend?"

"Hi, you don't talk carelessly." said Dinda from behind. Makes Zaidan laugh.

Aldo heard Dinda startled as well. Make both his eyebrows raise.

This is a bad guy too. This is wrong, so wrong.

"No. But wait two days" replied Zaidan.

"Tock."

"Yes. Such is. It's Din."

Dinda just glared, rounding her increasingly round eyes, with a spoiled smile.

"Have."

"It's all because of you. I wear clothes in my car. Directly caught mommy. Yeah, that's how it is."

"That's happy ..." Aldo.

"Neither ngingetin sich."

"Where do I know."

"It has. It's been. It's just a hassle." Aldo interrupted their conversation which began to be 'funny'. Like a child caught wrong.

Actually Zaidan was happy to enjoy this chat. Seeing Dinda pout, made her even more fond, wanting her to laugh. Only pity is also with Dinda who is still confused, restless with what he is facing right now.

"Maybe we'll have to go to your house tonight. Because Lisa's sister is back in Singapore tomorrow."

"But Mas."

"Please help me again. Mommy likes to joke but never plays around in making decisions. Help me to worship mommy.

I know .. if I'm not your type. And often make you irritated, sissy or angry. All of that does not prevent us from proposing to you.

All for Anya. The only princess. You know that ....

Every day all you are looking for is you. The one called only you. In his sleep what he called was your name.  His joy is only when he meets you. Such a small child is difficult to lie about his feelings. I'm happy, but also sad when all the shadows are for him. Because you're not the real mother.

Her dad. It would be impossible to see him hurt and grieve a second time.

I've told you before. How Anya faced her days after her mother's death. Tortured and wounded. And sorrow always enveloped the journey of his footsteps.

The world laughs at his suffering. So he was very afraid to meet anyone.

You know Dinda ....

Ever since he knew you, there was hope for him to gaze into his world. It is beautiful, fun and can make her happy. So that little by little looks fear eroded from the look of his face. And start to meet people with a natural fear.

Maybe we are too selfish to have all the freedom you have. About your friends, your job, your college.

No. .. no.

We don't want that. What we want, we can enjoy happiness with you without sacrificing the happiness you have.

I mean it, Adinda." said Zaidan, looking at Dinda sitting behind him.

Aldo who eavesdropped on their conversation, somewhat dizzy made. What language is it .. like the language of the planet. But it seems to understand both. Aldo was astonished and confused. Maybe it was a heart. And they were destined to be together.

"I understand, Mas. And we've agreed on that."

"Then?"

"Mas, I'm an orphan. There's no one to talk to. To my sister, I can ask for advice. But all of them were handed over to me again. I haven't had experience. It's still hard for me.

I do not understand about the steps to realize the dream of self. Then to whom else should I express this uneasiness."

"What are you worried about?"

"Hem ...."

.

"Have called your brother Alfath."

"Yes." Yeah."

"God willing mommy will guide you."

"Would mommy accept me."

"Mommy wasn't my real mother. She's the mother who's been taking care of me ever since I took her from the orphanage. I was only 4 years old at the time. He is very affectionate and caring, even though I am not his own son. So I guess you don't have to hesitate anymore.

I know mommy. Mommy really hopes that I will soon make you a wife. And there's a mother for Anya. Beloved grandson.

Never mind, for mommy problems you just enjoy it casually. God willing, you will like it immediately. So is mommy."

Our conversation came to a halt as Aldo drove slowly and stopped on a rather quiet street.  Not far from the police station at the crossroads.

"Before Zai .." said Aldo solemnly as he stared at his rearview mirror.

"What's Al." asked Zaidan curiously.

"It looks like we're being followed." Aldo replied.

"What's up, Mom."

"Just calm down." replied Zaidan.

"We're going to go around in circles like that" Aldo said as he watched his rearview mirror.

"If that's what he wants, we just serve" he heard his soft words as if saying to someone who had somewhere to go.

"okay."

"Dinda, ready!"

Dinda's face was very anxious. Yet calm. This isn't the first time he's been with Zaidan.

"Mr Dinda must be strong. For Anya." said Aldo.

Will this always happen. If he's destined to be with Zaidan.

God has strengthened me to face it.

Land Aldo started the car and ran it back at full speed through a quiet road. Enter the nearest highway to avoid cars following it.

After passing the highway, Aldo's face looks rather calm.

"You know who's following you, Zai?"

"If I had known. I've reported it to the police." replied Zaidan.

Aldo laughed when he heard it.

"Zai ... Zai. The one you caught yesterday, it could just come off. Especially reports that do not have evidence.

And why your wife's murder to date has not been caught.

But calm Zai ....

I've reached out to the people in the police department who can be trusted to help uncover all this."

"Thank you, Al."

"Mr Dinda's okay?"ask Aldo.

"God is okay."

"If I may give you advice. Please follow the wishes of Mrs Hendiyana."

"This is his father's problem, let me handle it. Kind of ... Just wait" Aldo said with a smile. And replied with a smile also by Zaidan.

"Al .. You want to get fired" Zaidan said.

Aldo laughed happily. He could finally tease them both.
