From far away Dinda looked at the man who was preparing to leave using his motor trill. Shakti chose to use the motor only, to make it easier to get to the place of Aunt Gendis.
The man with a backpack on his back drove his motorbike towards a higher ground with a fairly challenging terrain.
Just a few minutes the bike was up. He felt his phone inside the jacket shake. Shakti was forced to stop by the roadside and pick up a flat object tucked inside his jacket.
"New number." muttered Shakti as he looked at the screen of his phone.
With a frown, Shakti rubbed his phone screen.
"Hallo... "
"This is Agam." replied the voice that was in the sebrang.
"What's wrong?" shakti asked sounded indifferent.
"I want your explanation of my past." Agam did want to meet Shakti in his office, so when meeting Bimo who explained about his boss' schedule. Agam asked for Shakti's mobile number.
"You who have a past why should I bother explaining your past" the haughty sentence was clearly heard by Agam. But, he did need an explanation from Shakti.
"Please, explain to me what you know about Laras." urged Agam who felt impatient to listen to a story about his past love.
"I don't know about the girl now, nor do I know her name. But, she left the city pregnant." Shakti's sentence made Agam like he was struck by lightning. Yes, he did do that with Baras.
"Hello, are you still there?" shakti asked when she heard nothing. Of course Agam was immediately silenced by the man's statement. His phone almost fell because all his strength seemed to escape from his body.
"Yes." replied Agam sounding weak, his hands also had time to wipe the wet corners of his eyes.
"You just ask my friend Rama who is in the police, or for more details just ask your mama." Shakti immediately closed his call, he felt too waste of time if to take care of Agam. He himself in detail did not know about the girl in his past. He investigates Agam's background because he feels Agam is one of the rivals who are dangerous enough to seize Alexa.
The man was back racing with his adrenaline carrying his trill bike to keep walking uphill. The higher the road the more steep he even began to leave the path of origin.
"Walk is that right?" Shakti hesitated a bit as he entered the area of trees similar to the forest. He himself just followed the direction of the road that continued to run uphill.
Until the hot sun feels quite stinging, even with quite cold air touching the skin. Shakti started stopping his bike, there was no signal on his phone, he had to figure out his own path to his destination.
After stretching his back muscles that have begun to tire, Shakti again advanced his motor with determination.
Lamat lamat, seen a resident settlement that he believed was the village of Auntie gendis, the closer he began to remember the remote area he had once stopped.
Shakti began to smile as he looked at the large house with a simple shape and a spacious courtyard. He was sure it was Aunt Gendis' house, still the same house just the plants in her yard were a little different.
Without hesitation he turned his bike. Of course all eyes were on him including the little boy who was following his mother who was currently cleaning the front room that looked like a pendopo.
"Oh Allah, Shakti." Bu Seno looks so excited to welcome his nephew. With a hasty step Bu Seno approached Shakti who was still in the courtyard. He did not expect his nephew to arrive at his home.
"Aunty's nephew." Ms. Seno just kept staring at Shakti from top to bottom. As if, he did not believe if that came Shakti.
"Tante Gendis how are you?" Shakti hugged her mother's sister. Distance and busyness make it difficult for them to meet.
Ms. Seno, whose real name is Gendis Rahayu, is the younger sister of Mama Gayatri. They don't have a son. Om Seno used to be a scientist, a researcher of several types of insects. They decided to stay there because they were comfortable.
"Let's go in, Shak." Ms. Seno led her nephew to enter the pendopo.
"You're my Father?" ask God when blocking Shakti steps. Instantly Shakti circulated the view of where the boy who called him 'Father' came from'.
Shakti could hardly believe it when she saw the woman she had been looking for standing in the middle of the door holding the curtain of cloth that was the cover.
Alexa was also stunned when she saw Shakti, even the eyes of the two had linked to convince the figure they met today. Indeed, he did not expect if the God called Shakti with the name 'Father'.
His heart felt squeezed, with a sense of disappointment Alexa ran back to the barrel house. Meeting the man felt like he lost his heartbeat, let alone the call 'Father' thrown by God made his blood flow rippled violently. There, inside his chest was a great pain. He did not expect that the man Laras had been telling him about was Shakti.
Alexa was crying, her chest was crowded with disappointment and anger in it. The girl squeezed the bedsheet so firmly to release the hint of anger and sadness that shocked her feelings.
Meanwhile, Shakti was still confused by everything. He was sure it was the wife he had been looking for all along.
"Mr." but the voice of the God that melted the tense atmosphere made Shakti turn towards the boy and then carry him.
"God, Om this is not the father of God" said Laras as he put a tray containing his warm tea.
"What was that girl called, Auntie?" shakti asked if it was his wife. What Shakti knows is Alexa doesn't have a twin, he's convinced it's his wife Alexa.
"He's Salma, Laras' new friend from the city" Bu Seno replied with a closer approach to Shakti and Laras.
Fix, He's Alexa. Alexa Salma Aqilla, the wife she has been, Shakti's brain this time works well enough to convince the woman's identity. The man smiled, he touched his heart which felt like it was pounding strongly. Debaran that he always felt when near the woman he loved.
"Mother, she's a city person. He said, God's Father is a city man." The boy's words made Shakti look over.
"The Father of God is not this Om. Father God is still in the city." explained Laras made the boy again bowed lethargic, there was a sense of disappointment that could not be covered by the three-year-old boy. And Alexa, she must have misunderstood the incident this time.
"Shak, let's have some tea!" invite Bu Seno who does not understand what has happened.
"Later, Auntie." Shakti can't wait to see his wife.
"Come on mother, God!" pinta Laras as her son hugged the foreign man very tightly. His heart felt sad when he saw his son miss the figure of the father.
"We met Auntie earlier, yuk!" invite Shakti with a sense of longing that is already passionate. All eyes were on him.
"Later Shakti ulainin, Auntie" said Shakti who needed time to explain everything.
"Tante Salma's name." God interjected.
"Yes Aunt Salma. Let's show you where Aunt Salma is." The boy came straight down from Shakti's sling. He immediately pulled Shakti into his small house.
Miris.
Shakti did not expect if Alexa lived in such a small house with a floor that was still clay. The god continued to pull Shakti's hand towards the room which was only covered in cloth curtains.
"Tante Salma, Om Shakti would like to see you?" The gods break the curtains of the room. It was seen Alexa sitting on the waist of the bed was immediately wiping her tears.
"Oh, I missed you!" Shakti walked over to Alexa impatiently, but Alexa shifted her body away making Shakti frown.
"God was like mommy, yeah! Later Om take the road by riding a motorbike." persuaded Shakti who is not free because there is a God.
"Well, Om." God's answer made Alexa stare at the God's wonder. God called him 'Father' now 'Om'? The question accompanied Alexa's gaze on the boy who came out of his room. It is not difficult to persuade the God, the boy is so obedient especially with his mother.
Seriate....
