Elsewhere a man with three little girls, Lala Lili and Lulu have just occupied their new home in the elite area of Jakarta.
Mahraja, a lecturer in economics at one of the city's top universities. Actually the King has been more than three years back to the capital, only recently he bought a decent house and brought with him three daughters moved to Jakarta.
This city is a place of a million memories for the King, since High School he has migrated to Jakarta leaving his homeland, and this city is also where the King found his first love a dozen years ago, he said, before the line of fate brought him back to Medan and married a woman who had given him three beautiful daughters who are currently participating with him live in Jakarta.
"Well, when do we start school." Lala the King's eldest daughter approached the King who was reading a newspaper at the dinner table.
"Breakfast here, Lili and Lulu where?" The king asked back.
"Still asleep, what school?" Lala didn't want to give up, she asked.
"Yes La, again taken care of. Next week we can enter like, we clean up this week, all shopping first for the needs of the three of you, we must be independent." The king folded the newspaper he had read and put it on the table before continuing his words.
"No opung can help you here, you have to help dad a lot, wak Mar also come early until late afternoon aja sak." wak Mar which the King meant was a mother who helped with work in their home.
The king quietly folded his hands on the dining table and looked at his eldest son, Lala who is now twelve years old, waiting for the best answer from Lala who is considered to be old enough to share his complaints.
"Sip,,,, so easy it is well, our spirit can." Lala answered while standing up and holding her clenched hand into the air, like a person in a demo.
The king laughed happily, there was sadness and unrest in him, living independently with these three little girls he would somehow live with.

Two weeks passed after the wedding of Utha Uthi, their house facing each other makes the couple like a chess child who likes to move around.
Sometimes they will stay at Utha's house and their breakfast time is at Uthi's house and vice versa, what a strange couple.
That morning all was busy, Utha who suddenly came for breakfast and Uthi who tailed unabashedly.
The father who had finished breakfast was still sitting at the dinner table waiting for his mother's coffee, while reading the newspaper.
Yana who was tidying the breakfast table and put some pieces of mother-made bread into the food box to share with her teaching friends.
"Buuu this is Idris ya, I say goodbye. Assalamualaikum" The voice of Elita who only drove her second child to the front door to be entrusted to Nur's mother during her work, sometimes even not only during his work often also El pick up his son when it was night.
That is how a mother sacrifices everything to care for raising her children lovingly and still able to care for her grandchildren without complaining tired even though she is no longer young.
"Mba El habit de nitip kids already like nitip anything." The son shook his head with the behavior of his second brother whom he called mbak.
"Akekkk" Idris who was used to running straight in and sitting on the lap of Mr. Ahmad.
"Mu num pi kek" Idris asked Ahmad for coffee, making Mr. Ahmad stop reading the newspaper and respond to the request of his grandson who was soon four years old.
"Little children can't drink coffee later you grow a mustache want,?
The son teases Idris and a small commotion ensues, The house's morning routine is always warm.
Yana comes out of the room ready with a backpack and teaching uniform, greets mom and dad and kisses Idris round cheeks and say goodbye, Doni has sent a message that the man is close to Yana's house to pick her up.
➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰♥️♥️
"Ups... Sorry." said Doni to the little boy who had just fallen for ice cream because he was nudged by Doni's hand when he wanted to pay for his groceries at the cashier.
"Let's change om, it's falling" Lili the boy of seven knew it answered boldly while pointing at his ice cream that had landed on the floor.
"Ok, ok sorry" Almost Doni gave the little boy two red notes if the boy's father hadn't come.
"Eh, do not let me buy another, I apologize if my son is not polite" said the King sincerely to Doni.
"I'm sorry I was also wrong I rushed, sorry, pretty boy," said Doni to the boy, and immediately left the place to his car.
"Why?" Tanya Yana, who apparently saw from inside the car what was happening inside the minimarket.
"So bad boy, the ice cream fell off my hands eh he asked for compensation, fortunately his father came and his father was good, so yes not to the length of his business." Doni's answer made Yana laugh.
"Oh that was his father." Yana asked back
"Yes, you know him?"
"Yes is not a mas, how can I know. anyways just look behind him how can I know, there are-anya yes, let's sneak later I'm late the kids must have been waiting for this."
From inside the mini market the King's eyes followed the direction Doni was walking towards his car, his eyes were fixed on a woman sitting on the passenger bench, like the man the King had known but he had doubts.
Seeing that the car had not moved made the King walk outwards and wanted to approach the car to ensure his doubts.
"May be five chocolate?" Lala's voice halted her steps, the King turned to Lala and nodded, sign in agreement.
The king also approached Lulu holding her third child who asked to take her own snacks that she wanted that were on the top shelf.
When the King turned back to look outside, the car that was expected to still be parked in front of the minimarket was no longer there.
➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰➰♥️♥️
The incident in the minimarket was really disturbing King's mind, the face of the woman in the car that was so similar to Ayyana's love in the past.
Three years living in this city has never even met Yana, the King clearly knows the address of Yana House but never dare to visit there, he said, although it is undeniable that his little heart wants to meet Ayyana even if only once, at least to apologize.
Fourteen years ago the king promised to return to Jakarta and proposed to Ayana again when the girl had finished her education.
Yana's father at that time refused the King's proposal just because he did not want his son to get married before his college was finished and asked the King to return after Yana Graduation.
But the promise was only a mere promise, one year after returning to Medan the King agreed with the Mamak Plan that continued to force to marry the King with the chosen girl of the mother, who was the first girl, at that time even the King did not dare to be honest with his mother if he already had his own choice.
Indeed there is no pledge of any relationship between the King and Yana at that time, but their closeness that has been established since they were in white gray uniforms has explained the feelings of each other without having to be expressed.
At that time the King had called Yana, gave news of her marriage to Yana, not to make Yana sad, the King gave the news intended that Yana stopped hoping and waiting for him.
When it was not only Yana who was broken and in disarray, the King was equally wounded but as a child, The king could no longer dodge the requests of his parents and also an obligation to serve the parents.
