GRINNED
CHAPTER 26: Mother, Guide Dinda

This trip was the second tense journey, since he knew Zaidan. It may be true, Zaidan said, they have not been able to calm down as long as his wife's killer has not been found. And Anya's safety will always be under threat. The initial problem before Dinda was really with Zaidan. Dinda was confused. On one side Dinda desperately wanted to remove Anya's wounds as far as she could. On the other hand, Dinda also wants to stay in her life. Have a quiet family, full of love and love for each other. Aldo said he must be strong. Dare for the common good. By Anya who is his happiness too.

They had to go around in circles before heading to Zaidan's house. It's quite time consuming. Almost half an hour, just arrived at Zaidan's house.

Dinda did not think that the house was in the middle of the rice fields. Far from the village, especially the city.  It can be said very far away.

Maybe it's this atmosphere that Zaidan is looking for. Fresh air, comfortable natural atmosphere, and away from noise. Perfect for enjoying life. Especially for the development of her little daughter. He was the perfect father for Anya.

Arriving at the destination, from within the pack Tata greeted him by opening the gate. And shut it down when they're inside. Then Aldo took his car in the parking lot. And back to walk them.

From the gate to the main house is 100 meters away. Along the way to the door, pass through the garden and fruit that thrives beside the right left of the road.

Seen from the direction of the door, a little girl was running towards him. Who else if not dear Anya.

"Mother .." she scattered herself in the arms of Dinda, who greeted her with a warm embrace.

As well as giving affectionate kisses on both cheeks and forehead.

Zaidan took a deep but happy breath. Watching his daughter who is very dear to him can now be cheerful when he meets his beloved Ammah Dindanya.

"Yes .. dad is forgotten. Always the first Ammah" said Zaidan

Dinda laughed at Zaidan's jealousy. Then let go of Anya while smiling happily. Directing on Zaidan who waits for a warm embrace from his dearest daughter.

Zaidan gave both of his cheeks to get a kiss from Anya, whom he missed. Almost half a day without seeing.

"Om Aldo also dong ...!"said Aldo.

While squatting and smiling, give both cheeks to get a kiss of affection from the granddaughter of the mistress Hendiyana.

Anya was stunned and silent for a moment. Then he looked at Dinda and her father in turn. Simultaneously they nodded their heads.

Seeing the father and the ammah giving consent, Anya hesitates to give a kiss on Aldo's cheek on the right. Aldo greeted him with great joy. Replying with a warm hug and lifting his body up while laughing. To make Anya laugh, as if there is no more burden left.

Then snuggle it and pinch Anya's nose spoiled. Seen Anya enjoyed it without fear that had always enveloped the cheerful on her face.

"Om .. can I ask you?"aldo said to Anya who was still in her arms.

"Ask what, Om."

"That's ammah or mother?"aldo asked Anya while pointing at Dinda.

"Mother .." he answered without hesitation.

"Sip ..."

"Now may come down." he lowered Anya slowly.

And as Aldo imagined, surely Anya would reach the hand of Dinda and Zaidan in his arms. Making both of them squat.

A good moment to photograph.

"Cheat !" they shouted at Aldo who was playing his phone.

"Siiip" Aldo said with a gleeful laugh, successfully teasing them.

But Anya didn't stop there. He won't let go of his hand, to Dinda and Zaidan. Walk through the path to the main house with lips that can not be separated from the smile. Makes both of them not warty. They must obey the wishes of Anya who is at the peak of excitement with those who are very dear to her.

In front of the door, Madam Hendiyana was seen smilingly welcoming them. He enjoyed the happiness of his grandson.

"Mom..." Zaidan bowed and grabbed the hand of the mistress Hendiyana, to shake hands with reverence. Dinda followed suit doing the same.

"Let's go in." take Miss Hendiyana.

The warm welcome from Miss Hendiyana made Dinda's heart calm. He followed Miss Hendiyana into Zaidan's house. Who leads to the living room.

"Here it!" said mrs Hendiyana who saw Anya sitting on Dinda's lap.

But he shook his head. Getting spoiled on Dinda. He was without her parting ways with Dinda. It was seen he played both hands of Dinda to clap with her.

"It seems that my granddaughter fits you perfectly" said Mrs Hendiyana, making Dinda smile and blush in embarrassment.

Anya was still clapping with Dinda. It only stopped when bi Sari and her father finished arranging Dinda's luggage on the table.

"Eyang, I want a cake mother ..." Anya came down from Dinda's lap towards the dining table. Mrs Hendiyana just looked at it with a smile.

Dia kembali menatap Dinda yang duduk tenang di hadapannya dengan tertunduk.

"Who are you, Ndduk?"mrs Hendiyana said softly. It made Dinda's heart full. He recalled the times when his family was still intact. Her mother was very gentle, calling herself with the call 'duk' as well.

The affectionate call and attention of his parents to him.

Want Dinda to hug Miss Hendiyana. And let go of his longing for his parents. It did not feel like his heart was melted to get soft treatment and motherhood from Miss Hendiyana.

All he could do was smile.

"Adinda Humaira, ma'am." replied Dinda.

"Call me mom, just like Zaidan did."

"Good Mam."

"That's better."

"I know my son likes you, but I realize my son has a lot of flaws. Are you ready, Ndduk."

"I beg for guidance, Mam."

"The family had no school. Your teacher, your student, too. If you can learn from each other, God willing you will easily drive it in the direction you want."

"It's still hard for me, Mom."

"You're very mature, Ndduk. I entrust Anya to you." said Miss Hendiyana, making Dinda not wince. And shed tears.

"Why did Mom say that?"

Mrs Hendiyana just smiled.

"Aren't I here forever." Dinda nodded weakly. And can't control myself and cry in the arms of Mrs Hendiyana. Dinda felt comfortable in the arms of mistress Hendiyana like she found her parents back.

Zaidan approached them. And sit next to her mommy chair. Staring questioningly, actually what they were talking about so Dinda cried in the arms of her mommy. For a moment Zaidan was still glued.

"We'll come to your house tonight. No need to bother."

"Yes, Mum."

"Zaidan's. Have you thought about Dinda's happiness as well."

"Yes. Mamma. I'll try."

The atmosphere becomes liquid when Anya returns with a nogosari cake in hand.

"You're exactly eye-to-eye. Love nogosari."

"Enak eyang's. There is a banana." Anya replied while enjoying the cake wrapped in banana leaves. Makes Dinda laugh and takes off her arms. Although it still leaves tears in between the corners of his eyes.

"Already, now I want to taste your cooking."
