Navya's gaze followed Finny's step through the door to the back garden. Then he saw Damar and Alvi alternating with sad faces.
Not because he didn't get permission, but he already made his mother sad. "Prophey baby, just for a second. Papi believes, Mami just needs time to think. Let it be a little while longer until the emotions subside."
"Yes Pi, Vya understands." Alvi's smile seemed to strengthen and reassure her. Navya nodded in understanding.
That was when Dafin and Hana came. "Tumben once you sit here, there's Alvi's sister too." His eyes looked back and forth looking for someone. "Where's Mami?"
Moments later after they told him what really happened to Dafin. Dafin understood very well, it was rather difficult to persuade Finny. Just like when Dafin wanted to study abroad, her mother did not talk to her for two days either. But finally he himself came to his son and said he allowed it.
"So soon, let me and Hana go there to meet Mami. Alvi come with me."
Alvi assented and followed Dafin.
"Mommy. "greet Dafin. After Hana who kissed Finny's hand and continued the chips.
"Why sit here?" He sat his body next to the woman.
"Mommy was wrong to forbid Navya from going abroad? Mami's just afraid she's why-why, she'll live alone there."
Dafin smiled, then hugged Finny, the woman placed her head on her son's shoulder. "It turns out Navya's going abroad? Wahh.. We can visit Navya sometime during the holidays."
"You're supporting your sister. Mami will be alone if Navya leaves." Dafin glanced at Hana who was next to his Mama. And that's what Finny realized.
Oh yes Forgive me. He forgot there was Hana. Dafin and Hana will stay in their house. Finny looked at his daughter-in-law. "Hana, forgive Mommy dear. That's not what Mommy meant. But Mami finds it hard to let go of Navya alone in a foreign place."
Hana smiled warmly. "It's okay Mi. Hana knows Mami is worried about Navya right. But according to Hana, if Mami wants Navya to be happy, Mami has to believe her choice."
Finny recalled that when he saw Navya's paintings and graffiti in his room, he was amazed by her daughter. Navya then expressed his desire to study in the field of fashion design, especially designing jewelry. And have made a list of campuses, and the choice fell on the nearest country. But it was rejected by Finny. Navya doesn't even dare to insist on her wish as Finny cries sadly imagining Navya will leave. The reason for that was because he was too worried about Navya.
"You go to college here. I will be able to work in the Papi office. Don't bother looking for a job out there."
"Yes, Vya won't go. Vya loves Mami. Whatever Mami says Vya will come along, for Vya's good and Mami's happiness."
That's how Navya ended up following what he wanted. It's always like that. Karen Navya knows she's not her real mother, Navya feels Finny's love is already very abundant in her. So there's no reason for Navya to reject any of Finny's requests. If her mom says A, then Navya's coming.
He thought it was a form of service to Finny, so he never thought about his wishes.
"But Mami is afraid of Nak. Mami is afraid that if she's okay, Mami will feel like she failed to take care of Navya. And Mami will be very guilty of Hafizah."
This time it was Alvi who tried to open the sound. He sat down in front of Finny. "Tante, did Auntie promise Hafizah's mother just to look after Navya? Just making sure he's always near Auntie?" This time he held the hand of his father's sister.
"Tante, we can all see, Ms. Hafizah is very sure Auntie can be a good parent for Navya so she entrusts her son to Aunt. And the responsibility that Aunty takes to look after Navya doesn't mean she's always on Aunt's side. It is the same as limiting his freedom. Is Aunt sure it'll give her happiness?"
Finny thought, maybe what Dafin and Alvi said is true. He is too afraid to let go of Navya, his promise to his best friend makes Finny so possessive of his adopted son. But she never thought about what Navya really wanted all this time for her life. Finny realized he was forcing too much. The most important option in her life is marriage.
Married to Dafin to bind Navya, instead of giving her happiness has made Navya bear the wound.
Finny closed his eyes, and suddenly there was a clear liquid dripping down his cheeks. He started to sob, realizing his mistake. "Mami loves Navya, not the intention of Mami to curb her freedom. Mami regretted not caring about her feelings."
"And Mami don't worry, Dafin is sure that Alvi will do everything to ensure Navya's safety and comfort while there." Finny looked at Alvi. And the man nodded with a smile.
"Navya will stay in the house belonging to Alm. Papa, but for a while Navya will be staying with the old housekeeper and some bodyguards. They'll help with all Navya's needs. While waiting for Grandma and Grandpa to go there in a month. Grandma will stay there until Navya finishes her education."
"And I'll put a bodyguard by Navya's side as long as she's there. Without him knowing it would."
Dafin looked at Alvi who was talking to her Mama.
So great is your sacrifice for Navya sis. I am grateful that you will take care of him. May you be a match, never give up to take his heart.
Tucked a sincere prayer behind Dafin's smile for Alvi and Navya. Now he feels Alvi is indeed worthy to accompany Navya,. Kaka's cousin really proved that he really did not want Navya to get hurt in the slightest.
Hana wiped the tears on Finny's cheek. "Mi don't be sad anymore, don't blame yourself, Mami is the greatest mother for us. Let's go see Navya. Tell me Mommy agrees. He'll be so happy." Finny nodded.
"Thank you, darling." His words stroked Hana's cheeks affectionately.
"Mommy will tell Navya." Alvi was already standing in front of Finny, and the woman would also get up from her seat to come to her daughter.
Navya is anxiously awaiting her Mamma's decision.
"Wait." Dafin prevents those who are about to move into the house.
