"Everything happens as if destiny is guiding"
\~\~LYSM\~\~
Barney Cristensen Dirgantara, a handsome midwife with a body that still looks athletic despite the age of 41 years, the man looks busy with some files stacked on his desk. Instantly his focus was distracted when there was a knock on the door.

"Yes in"
Chequelek
The door opened with a beautiful baby-beak woman approaching her. Shelly Disti Barney is his wife who is none other than the mother of Dandra.
"What's the matter, baby?"
"It's a pity that Aldrina seems like she wants to see you"
"Really? It's good then that I'm also curious as to who the woman who could have let down my only son" Barley said excitedly
"Well, let's get down to bring baby, stop your work first"
"Honey, okay"
Shelly and Barley went down to Aldrina in the living room, then both saw a girl who was very fun playing HP. Barley raised one of his index fingers in front of his mouth hinting to keep his wife quiet.
"Ehm" Barley cleared his throat, causing Aldrina to turn her face towards him
"Eh a.a.ad.a om, Hello om" Aldrina said nervously.
Barley was stunned to see the face of the girl in front of him, yes there is no way he could forget that face but wait why the girl looks young again, shouldn't her face have been wrinkled?.
"Who is this girl? Is he his son?"inner Barley looked at the girl before him at this moment
The Flasback
Barley and Gandhi were best friends in college and one more girl, Kaylee Kimberly Orlando, was always seen together on their campus. In fact, many say that the three are involved in a love triangle when they accidentally cross paths. True to what they say but unfortunately Kaylee only loved Gandhi more than a best friend while for Barley he only considered the man his solemn friend.
Now they have graduated from college Gandhi works at his family company while Kaylee the girl works at a company owned by Barley, but even so his heart never changed until one day Barley wanted to be betrothed to a girl made him inevitably have to say his feelings directly to Kaylee. Barley realizes the girl must know that she has feelings for him but Barley only wants answers directly from Kaylee.

"Well please come in" replied Barley from his seat of power
"Good day sir"
Kaylee wander around looking at other people and then take a relaxed attitude to her best friend "Hey buddy you look cool at your place hmm but honey don't have a girlfriend hehehe"keylee said with a grin while handing over some documents on the desk
Barley looked at Kaylee seriously "Hmm so be my wife"
"Huh? Your wife?"
"Hmm my wife to be complete with all this"
"Well, what a Ley! Your dress is not funny to know"
Barley stood up from his place "What's your max? I'm not kidding! Really mean! Marry me Kaylee I beg you I've liked you for a long time"
Kaylee was speechless the girl looked a step back. Kaylee actually knew that Barley liked her but unfortunately her heart was already won by Gandhi. Actually, Gandhi had offered that the girl work at his company, but Kaylee did not want to reason that he could focus more on his career first.
"Sorry ley" said Kaylee
"For?"
"I already have someone I like"
"What's? Wh who? Can't you just give your heart to me? I beg you to give me a chance to fight for you"
"Sorry Ley sorry" Kaylee said with a sad face because it broke her best friend's heart
Barley breathed in the air and breathed his coarse breath "Well if that's your decision I just want to know I'm being betrothed by my family and maybe in a month we'll get married"
"It's good that it's so Ley"
"Where is good? I can't be with you anymore"
"But you can learn to love her later, come on. Let's not make this atmosphere more awkward and make you feel more guilty"
"Well, if that's your decision, I'll accept it, although I honestly can't, but..."
"But what is Ley?"
"But you have to get out of my company" Barley said softly and actually did not have the heart to expel the woman he loves most at this time by force
"Why Ley? Why would it have to be? Is it because I rejected you?"
"It's not that I can't keep you anymore, my parents don't want me and you to get too close because I'm being betrothed"

Keylee's tears dripped without excuse "Ta ta pi why? Why should I go out? I'm not gonna disturb your relationship"
Barley exhaled "This time I apologize to you, I have no power against my family but if you want to be my wife I will fight for you Kaylee"
Kaylee wiped her tears "Jude Ley why you're not wrong, congratulations buddy and goodbye"
It was the last day Barley saw Kaylee, since that day the two never met again but he heard even get a wedding invitation Kaylee and Gandhi 4 years after he got married, but Barley was unable to attend the event due to his busy life. Barley could only send congratulations and gifts to his two best friends.
Although he could not be with Kaylee but Barley was grateful to see his two best friends were very happy and now Barley already loved Shelly who is now his wife and they get one sonsuch a handsome man.
Flashback Off
"Of..Om.. Hello Om.." said Aldrina again with a hand that stuck out want to greet Barley's hand
"Ehm oh i.iya greetings Aldrina I am the father of Dandra" Barley said to his senses and replied to Aldrina's hand
"Hello om I'm Aldrina om, wah om handsome once more handsome than Dandra, does Om have dimples? You see Dandra is even in again"celoteh Aldrina as if he had known for a long time
Barley laughed at Kaylee, who had never been quiet as they were always with many stories coming out of her best friend, just like the girl in front of her.
"Would I have said it wrong? Why are you laughing? Why am I joking that way"the confused Aldrina's mind saw Barley laughing himself
"Why are you laughing? Understandably pa Aldrina is chatty" said Dandra who stopped her father's laughter
"Mom..It's not that I just remembered someone" Barley replied back to neutralize his attitude
"someone? Who's om?"aldrina asked confused
"My best friend first"
"Oh, do I look like him? Does that girl look so pretty like me?"aldrina asked enthusiastically while propping up her cheeks
"Aldrina is one-on-one papa" whispered Dandra who was sitting next to the girl
"Geez my sister" whispered Aldrina's avenging the lover
"Had Dandra was okay, papa was happy like having a daughter" Barley said so that the lovers did not argue
"I feel like you're my best friend's son that your faces are really very similar"
"Oh yes, om? I'm getting curious about that friend"
"Well, may I know what your mother's name is?"ask Barley before telling his best friend's name
Aldrina seemed silent to hear that she also did not know the name of her mother even the face of the mother Aldrina did not remember it.
"If you don't like that papa makes Aldrina to be quiet" said Shelly to see the beautiful girl speechless
Aldrina shed tears "Gapapa kok tan, but I'm sorry Aldrina also does not know the name of the mother who even Aldrina's face does not remember om, the mother has long died"
DEG
Hearing that Barley's heart was met with strong tears fell down both cheeks making everyone feel surprised especially Aldrina.
"Oh om sorry, Aldrina did not mean to make om so sad gini, Aldrina already accepted! Aldrina is sure you're happy there" Aldrina said feeling bad and tried to comfort Barley
"Om sorry Aldrina"
Shelly patted her husband's shoulder softly even though she was also confused by what is happening now but she knew one person who was considered a woman's best friend by her husband because her husband used to tell a lot about his best friend.
"You know, your mother when Aldrina died?"
"When Aldrina also did not know om said papa when I was a toddler om, but there's one weird papa like shutting up about mom when I try to force papa to tell a story I just make her cry"
"Whatwhy? Why didn't Gandhi tell Kaylee about his own son? What's the matter exactly?"batin Barley was surprised when Gandhi seemed to love Kaylee
"Well, who's your father's name Aldrina?"
"Well, if this is Aldrina, the answer is that the name of Gandhi's father is as handsome as om, but because of the papa I am not the father who is the most handsome hahaha" Aldrina said again ended with laughter
Barley shook her head "It's really like Kaylee that her mood changes" Barley smiled
"Haha but for Dandra I'm the most handsome, aren't you son?"
"Yes pa yes, yes papa Aldrina does not need to be served later papa tired send.. Aaaa aww" said Dandra ended the scream of pain due to Aldrina who had pinched her arm
"What the hell, brother? Don't be ugly image me dong in front of papa-in-law"omel Aldrina is not shameless
"Jeez Aldrina's a little shy! You want papa to not like it because you're chatty" whispered Dandra
"That can't dong! Don't you like chatty girls?"aldrina raised her voice a little
This time Barley laughed so hard he felt like he was in the past listening to his best friend's grunts "What's wrong Dan, papa hasn't listened to anything like this in a long time"
Dandra can only smile to see her lover and papa look very familiar like the two old friends who met again even both look fun chatting and idle mother and also herself, seeing her husband so engrossed, Shelly went to the kitchen to prepare some snacks for them.
