Toni just looked at Dina's back with a sad look, she was confused by Dina's fickle attitude. Toni took her motorcycle home. His heart rages on all questions and all possibilities.
With a gontai step Toni entered into his house. His father was at home sitting in the living room reading the newspaper.
"just got home?" ask her papa Toni while glancing at Toni who just came
"the papa tumben at this hour is at home" Toni said flatly as she walked up the stairs
"Papa has not talked to papa for a long time" said his father Toni while folding the newspaper he read
"here papa wants to talk to you" his father Toni patted the chair next to him
Toni did not go up to her room, she walked over to her papa. He sat in the front seat of his father.
"how's school?" ask Tony's dad
"well pa" replied Toni flatly
"the papa's son now turns out to be a big one, already has a girlfriend" his father Toni pulled both corners of his lips.
"Dina is not my boyfriend pa.." said Toni with a face turned into a sad.
"if not your girlfriend, why are you so busy picking her up?" toni's father scoffed at Toni
"the name is also effort." replied Toni indifferently.
"trying?" toni's papa chuckled "continued where have you been? And how did it go?"
"indeed papa.pengusaha who always make money" said Toni ketus.
Toni is upset about being bullied by her papa. Rarely meet and spend time with him, once the two of them can chat that is even mocked each other.
"that effort doesn't always make money, depending on what it is" his father Toni chuckled.
"like you, trying to get Dina's attention, what you've been trying for her, and what you're trying to do is make what you want happen, that's what's called work" the light of Toni's father
Tony listened only to his father. He felt that what his father said he knew everything, no need for advice or words of wisdom anymore.
"how long have you known Dina?" ask her father in a serious tone
"since first grade pa" replied Toni flatly
"since first grade but only now are you approaching it?" toni's father pretends not to know what happened to Toni and Dina.
He deliberately did it because he wanted to open communication with Toni. During this time Mr. Yanuar was too busy with his business and never paid attention to the development of his children.
"it's not just now pa...did have been near but now no longer" replied Toni a little upset.
"papa does not understand what you mean Ton" said Mr. Yanuar with his chest crossed and looked at Toni
Toni finally tells her what happened between her and Dina. Actually he was a little uncomfortable telling his problems, but he also wanted his papa to help him. Mr. Yanuar tried to listen without interrupting Toni's story. He wanted Tony to be open with him.
Mr. Yanuar wanted to position himself as a friend of Toni who became a place to complain. He did not want his son to fall into unhealthy relationships. Especially when you are going through puberty.
It's a little late indeed, but Mr. Yanuar wants to get closer to his children especially Toni because of the boys.
"seeing Dina papa so remembered with papa's younger brother first time in High School" said his father Toni while looking away "Dina has a resemblance to papa's younger brother"
"what looks like pa?" ask Toni curiously
"his name is aunt Vera pa..."
"vera....? papa's underclassman's name is Verawati Boediono" his father Toni said with a faint smile
"iya.possibly it's aunt Vera who you mean" said Toni.
"where do you know Ton?" ask Tony's dad
"tante Vera knows mama, she says she's a playmate and mama's childhood friend" Toni replies casually
"oh.so it's true that Dina's son Vera is familiar" Mr. Yanuar chuckled "it should be very similar"
Mr. Yanuar remembered the time he was in school. At that time white-gray era, her father Toni liked her mother Dina but never responded by her mother Dina.
"if you hear your story, papa gives advice to temporarily keep his distance, let him recover his heart" suggested his father Toni
"but pa.... How will people approach later?" toni Protest
"yes, you're not lucky" his father Toni chuckles "sometimes when we as men have to pull over if we approach a girl"
"pulling over how this papa, who is there if stretched yes loose" Toni pursed her lips.
Mister Yanuar sighed, young Toni's soul was like her it was when she was young. He remembered the time approaching his mother Dina, too insistent that finally made his mother Dina become uncomfortable.
The difference with his mother Dina had not had time to date so their quarrel did not drag on like Toni now. He knew very well Dina would not be easily approached if she was too disappointed.
She is almost the same as her mother Dina. If you are disappointed, you will be reluctant to be close to the person who disappointed you. Although still want to be friends, but he will not want to get closer just a good friend.
"if you think like that, yes you know him better" Mr. Yanuar prefers to take the middle path "father can only advise not to be too forced if he is uncomfortable"
"if Dina wants to, bring her here again papa wants to have lunch with you" said his father Toni with both corners of his lips raised.
"when's pa?" toni asked excitedly "isn't papa very busy?"
"papa wants to work from home for the next week" Mr. Yanuar walked leaving Toni in the living room.
Toni is excited, her papa who rarely cares about her now supports what she does. Although it does not state directly if his father approves of his relationship with Dina, but from the words that are implied shows that his father has been very supportive of what he is trying to do for Dina.
Toni goes into her room, despite a slight rejection from Dina but is happy to get support from her papa. And also his father began to open communication with him.
Toni recalled, she was with her papa last speaking when she was in Elementary School. After that long they did not talk like this anymore because of the busyness of papa and his mother.
Toni just thought about now what she would do next so that Dina could come back with her.
