The luxury car entered the courtyard of an orphanage in one of the capitals. The orphanage is different from the orphanages in general, the building looks very spacious and neatly maintained and clean.
The man walked with the help of his two sticks. Actually he wanted to rest at home but because of his curiosity, he was forced to leave the house and come to this orphanage. Making sure of something he had never imagined before.
“Sore Sir, who do you want to meet?” ask a young woman, like the caretaker.
“Head of this parlor, is there? Is it still..what name I forgot,” replied the man who no other Mr.Ferdi, entered into a room with doors and windows wide open, like a lobby, like a lobby, there is also a reception desk and guest chair. A well-organized home.
“Bu Sinta? Ada, please wait a moment,” said the woman, as her hand pointed to the waiting chair in the room.
Mr. Ferdi did not reply, the woman went into the parlour. Mr. Ferdi did not sit down but stepped out of the room, standing on the terrace looking at the depths that seemed to be some children running around.
This was his second visit to this home. He thought that after more than 20 years ago he was here, he would never come here again, but it turned out that the situation forced him back here. If it wasn't for Jack suspecting something he wouldn't have come here again for good.
“Good afternoon Sir!” a woman's voice greeted him from behind.
Mr. Ferdi turned his body around and made the woman surprised.
“Tu..The master! Mr Ferdi? Are you really Mr. Ferdi? It's been a long time,” asked the woman.
“You, sorry I forgot,” replied Mr.Ferdi, looking at the middle-aged woman.
“I Sinta, Sir, the head of this home, has not changed after more than 20 years ago Mr. here,” said Bu Sinta.
“Sorry, sorry I forgot,” said Mr.Ferdi, he really doesn't remember because he only met the woman once.
“Please sir, we go to my room,” invite Bu Sinta, while entering first into the parlour followed by Mr.Ferdi's slow steps and the sound of his staff stomping.
Mr.Ferdi looked around the parlour room, it was very different from more than 20 years ago he came here, it used to be very small and poorly maintained, now this home has many rooms and terraced.
They passed through several rooms that looked like the caretaker passed by like an administrative office.
They were at a door that read the office of the head of the house .
“Please, Master!” said the Chief of the House, while opening the door of the room.
“This change is very much the change,” said Mr.Ferdi.
“True Master, the money you gave me was very large, very useful for this home, so I can build this home bigger, I am very grateful,”, said Bu Sinta, smiling with friendly.
“Please sit down, Sir,” continued Ms. Sinta.
Mr. Ferdi sat in the chair for the guest, with a bit of difficulty in bothering with his two canes. In his heart he cursed his stepson.
“What Sir is fine?” ask Ms. Sinta, look at Mr. Ferdi's feet.
“There was a little accident, it's okay, it's improved,” java Mr.Ferdi, with an upset heart considering what Jack did to him, beat him until his bones broke and made it difficult to walk like this.
“I'm sorry,” said Bu Sinta.
Mr. Ferdi just nodded.
“Some I can help you with? It has been a long time that you have come again here,” said Ms. Sinta, after sitting in a chair opposite Mr.Ferdi.
“You still remember me?” ask Mr.Ferdi.
“Of course Sir! You gave a very large fund to this house. Now this home has been built and you can see for yourself the atmosphere is already very better. We can accommodate more children in need, we can also develop independent business education for nursing home children,” said Bu Sinta, at length.
“So are there any important needs, so Tuan kemari?” ask Ms. Sinta.
“I'm here to ask the child I brought, do you remember?” ask Mr.Ferdi.
“Still remember Sir, the child has been adopted by a couple working in the Capital,” replied Bu Sinta.
“Did you rename the boy?” ask Mr.Ferdi.
“Yes, as directed by you to change the name of the child and give the identity as a biological child to the adoptive parents. And it just so happened that his adoptive parents agreed to include his identity as a biological child instead of an adoption, so all was no problem,” said Bu Sinta.
Mr.Ferdi listened carefully.
“When Tuan took him, the boy did indeed experience severe trauma,” Bu Sinta said again.
“Yes, he was the victim of a sunken ship, his parents were washed away at sea, I couldn't take care of it so bring him here,” continued Mr.Ferdi, he said, reminding him back to the past the reason he used when he met Bu Sinta.
“The child cannot be spoken to, cries constantly, deliriums and nightmares. So after consulting with the Doctor, we agreed to give a new name to give a better new life and reduce the trauma,” replied Bu Sinta.
“You name the child?” ask Mr. Ferdi, with great curiosity.
“I changed his name to Arasi, Arasi Mayang. I deliberately changed his name not far from his real name Arum, just to make it easier to remember it,” replied Bu Sinta.
Of course that answer left Mr. Ferdi very surprised. Mayang Arasi? So Arum replaced Arasi Mayang? And that's Jack's wife's name? Whatisthis?
“She, she doesn't remember whose real name is?” ask Mr.Ferdi.
“Arum condition was very bad, when he gradually recovered he was used to being called Arasi,” replied Bu Sinta.
Mr.Ferdipun silent, he did not think that the one whom Jack married was his drowning little friend, which made him depressed.
It was all quite unexpected, all this was like a vicious circle to him. Clearing someone, eliminating someone but fate brings them together in unexpected conditions, is funny! Mr.Ferdi smiled wryly.
“Is there a problem Sir? Are Arum's parents still alive?” ask Ms. Sinta.
“No, no, they drowned in the sea, the body was not found,” replied Mr.Ferdi, shaking his head,.
Mr.Ferdi felt his head breaking knowing this fact. What he did was really futile and a waste of time. To keep Arum away from Jack and his family is Jack's marriage, what a farce. Mr.Ferdi again smiled cynically.
When he saw a great opportunity to marry Inez and take possession of Constantine's property. He deliberately keeps it a secret that Arum has been found, in order to get Jack out of his life Inez, deliberately let Jack continue to be depressed, depressed and longer in the RSJ. He doesn't want his son Constantine interfering with his life with Inez.
“Who is the name of the parent who adopted it?” ask Mr. Ferdi, to Ms. Sinta.
“Wait a minute,” said Ms. Sinta, she went to a closet and pulled the drawer there.
“For certain child cases, I deliberately kept the documents separate. I think this child will be very important. Even though you said you would never come back here again and handed the child over completely to me,” said Ms. Sinta, took the file, then returned to her seat just across from Mr.Ferdi.
“You are right, this child is very important,” murmured Mr.Ferdi. He can't wait to confirm Arum's whereabouts. Is it true that Jack is actually Arum?
Ms. Sinta opened the files and read the names of the parents who adopted Arum.
