"Sister, why do you know my problem ..."
"Because brother Zaidan is his son."
"meaning?"
"I don't know exactly. All I knew when I came here. Brother Zaidan was here first. Says the brothers who were here first. Since the baby's been treated the same."
"**Oh ..."
"If there is a problem, the run must be to abah. And stay in the children's room."
"Then do you know that we are brothers."
"I guess not. All he knows is that Zaidan's son was entrusted to him, by Ana's mistress."
"Not discussed. You will hope again."
"Yes, sister.Layla is just curious."
"Sir Zaidan loves you very much. As a sibling. Nothing more, that's what you know."
"Since when."
"Since I realized he was an orphanage."
"That's why, Brother Aris told mami. That brother, the orphanage?"
"**Yes ..."
"False, Brother. Make Layla's heart open."
They continued to chat at length, until it did not feel like they had reached the intended place. Mr. Fadly's house, Mr. Zaidan's business partner.
A pretty big house. Close tightly with a high fence. Located on a large land. With a beautiful garden. Perfect.
It is hard to enter this house. First through the security guard. Examination protocol. Thank God it was safely through. To the front of the house, the door was closed. The pencet bell is not open yet. Three times .. There was an answer from within. That was after we stepped out.
"Before,"The answer is from within.
We stopped our steps and went back to the house.
It turns out oh it turns out ....
Have to wait again, exactly people looking for donations.
"Sir, find who?" ask a girl in a typical baby sister uniform with an unfriendly face. Just make people run away.
Aris and Layla look at each other and try to smile as gently as possible at him.
"Is this really Mr Fadli's house?"
"What are you doing ...?"
Subhanallah wal hamdulillah wa la ilaha ilahu Allahu Akbar.
Dech complex package .. to the point of confusion what to say.
Question not answered. Ask again.
"Pak Fadli is there?"
"I'll call you soon."
He went inside, without letting us in. Patience ....
Aris smilingly looked at Layla who looked a little annoyed.
Then turn around.wait patiently while joking.
"Patience is loved by God, you know."
"It's the same with Aris as well."Laila replied jokingly. Just get rid of the upset.
"Relatedly" said Aris seriously staring at Layla.
"**Tact."
"Why?"
Layla whispered in Zaidan's ear.
"It will be halal."
"Yes .. okay." said Aris glanced at Layla.
They don't realize that Mr. Fadly is walking towards them. See and hear their words.
His blood was boiling, watching him.
"Oh, so all this time you've been avoiding me for her sake."
Aris and Layla were shocked and turned around. Seeing Mr. Aris whose face was red, scary.
She then grabbed Layla and wanted to hug her.
Layla retreats. Aris came forward, standing between them.
"Don't stop me."
He pushed her until Aris almost fell. Then come back to reach Layla.
"No, you won't let go for her" she said when she reached for Layla's hand.
"Mayasa, don't pity you with mama. She missed you."His word. His eyes stared at Layla.
Layla, who is not in the grip of Fadly, can only be stunned and confused.
"Sorry, Mr. Fadly, I'm not Mayasa." Layla tried to explain.
"That's what you say, when you meet me."
"Sir Fadly, He's Layla." said Aris once again. But not digubris at all.
Fadly immediately pulled her inside the house .. more precisely dragged Layla. Aris tried to block. But Fadly was holding onto Layla. Layla grimaces in pain.
Fadly was stunned, stopping her steps. Then let go of Layla's hand.
"Yes, Mr. Fadly. It's all because of your attitude. My sister ran away from you."
"**Adik?!"
"Yes, Mayasa is my sister. If you don't believe. Please come to our house."
He was silent for a long time, then shed tears, sobbing.
"I'm going crazy thinking about it." Sahut. Then rubbed his tears.
"I'm sorry. Please come in."
Fadly looks fragile. He walked down, holding back the tears that wanted to come out.
"Mayasa .. I'm sorry Layla's mother, what do you mean here?"
"We just wanted to invite you to the wedding reception for Mr. Zaidan" Layla said, handing him the invitation.
"Fadly, is that Mayasa?" Sound of voice calling.
Fadly was confused. He sees Aris and Layla alternating.
"It's all my fault."
"Come to Mayasa, maybe he'll forgive you" Aris suggested.
Not finished their conversation. The middle-aged lung woman limped closer to them.
Fadly stood up and led her to sit down.
But his eyes were on Layla.
"May, that's you son." Layla was stunned, she glanced at Aris. He's nodding.
Layla got up and hugged the woman.
"Sorry mama, I'm not Mayasa. I'm Layla."
"Where's the day?"
"If you want to meet, Layla will meet you."
"Fadly, you got mama?"
"Good, mama."
Layla tries to help Mama Fadly to walk. Fadly rushes to the garage to get his car ready.
"You twins?"
"Yes, Mama."
"I'm sorry mom. You're both soft."
"Before knowing Mayasa he was rougher than this. Lucky he knew Mayasa."
"Mama knows Mayasa better than me. I just found out that Mayasa is my new sister today."
"Then this whole time ..."
"Sir Zaidan and mommy know."
Mr. Fadly nodded. While walking until on the porch. Layla sat him in the chair there.
Before long Mr. Fadly's car came. He who replaced Layla guided her mother.
Aris and Layla followed behind.
They got into the car each leaving the house.
Fadly drove the car with an agitated heart but remained focused.
"Fadly, learn to understand Mayasa, if you want her to be your companion."
"I love her, Mama?"
"It is not just a word of love to build a house."
"Not many words, my mom doesn't like it."
"Then what should Fadly do?"
"The woman you like is a quiet, tasteful woman. You must be sensitive. If you touch his heart. He's gonna be very special to you. Be patient .. Never be rude to him."
Fadly stops her car when she sees Aris also stopping her car.
From behind the window Aris said,
"Wait a minute."
Aris enters a hijab shop alone, leaving Layla in a car. Shortly after, he returned with a paper bag. And restarted the engine of his car continuing his journey.

"Don't run...!"
But the little girl just kept running, chasing the sparrow who happened to be flying low, from one tree to another.
He stopped at a new banyan tree a meter and a half high but very leafy. He looked up, saw a bird's nest, containing a singing chick. Probably calling the mother.
Suddenly a bird fell right in front of him. With a sigh he took it. Put it on his palm.
"Ammah .. little bird."
