Zico and the girl stopped right in front of the brown door. The girl's hand moved, knocking on the door.
Tok tok!!!
"Mother, this is Dania. Can Dania come in?" shouted the girl who had the name Dania.
"Just get in Dania!" The reply from inside the room made Dania turn the doorknob and open it. When the door was wide open, Dania entered first. As for Zico, the man was still standing firmly in his original place.
The Holy Mother sitting at her desk looked at Dania before her gaze turned towards Zico. He frowned looking at the man he had never seen at this moment standing not far away from him. Any questions popped up in his brain with one of the questions, would that man be his new son more precisely would he want to stay in this parlour?
Dania who caught the questionable look of the Holy Mother, said, "Oh yes mother, this is someone who wants to meet with mother."
Dania turned her head towards Zico. The man did not move even a little from his place until Dania said, "Sister, enter gih."
Zico, who had been staring at the Holy Mother, turned his gaze with one of his eyebrows raised as if he were asking, "You sure you told me to come in while the owner of the room hasn't allowed it?"
Dania who did not understand the look of Zico's eyes, he scratched his nape that did not itch. To be honest, he felt a little afraid of Zico's extremely handsome yet sinister face.
"Come in!" the order from the Holy Mother distracted the two people who were in the doorway of her room.
Dania seemed to sigh as Zico's sliding gaze was already unsheathed.
Zico nodded his head and then stepped into the room. And just as he had arrived before the Holy Mother, Dania's voice came back.
"Mother, Dania came out first." The Holy Mother looked at Dania with a nod of her head. And when the door of the room was closed tightly coincided with the disappearance of Dania from behind the door. The Holy Mother looked back at Zico.
"Please sit down, son. And what purpose did you come here for?" the Holy Mother said with her soft voice.
Zico who was already sitting on the chair facing directly against the Holy Mother, he cleared his throat for a moment. He also had a serious face.
"I apologized for disturbing my mother's peace. And introduce me Zico. My arrival here is something I need to talk to my mom about and I really hope you can take your time to talk to me." The Holy Mother nodded her head.
"It's about Fanya." The frown on the middle-aged woman's forehead was visible.
"What's wrong with Fanya?" the Holy Mother asked worriedly. He was afraid of Fanya for nothing.
"That's fine now, ma'am. So I take it easy" said Zico, who was aware of the concern from the Holy Mother.
"If he's okay, what do you mean by what you said?" ask the Holy Mother. No lie if he was relieved when he heard Zico's answer earlier.
"Look at Ma. I just want to know if Fanya lives in this orphanage?" The Holy Mother was silent before she nodded her head.
Zico who had guessed that, he was not too surprised by the answer from the Holy Mother.
"If you could know why he lives here? Is Fanya mom's biological daughter?" The Holy Mother fell silent again with a complicated look towards Zico. He is currently thinking about whether he will tell Zico about Fanya or not because it is also a privacy that outsiders should not know.
The Holy Mother came to her senses from her daydream when she felt a grip on both her hands. When he held his head up that had looked at his hand, he could see the owner of the hand which was none other than Zico with a gaze full of requests for the Holy Mother to share the story of Fanya.
"Mother, please tell me everything about Fanya. I promise I will never divulge about Fanya's story to anyone. I beg you, mother," said Zico. He can no longer hold himself back from being exposed to the life of his girl. He should know everything right now.
"What sayings can you hold?" Zico steadily nodded his head.
"If I refuse, you can kill me" said Zico, who was too extreme. The Holy Mother could only sigh deeply at the reassurance Zico gave.
"Mother is not a psychopath. So I'll never do that. But I believe you will never break this promise of yours" said the Holy Mother, who looked into Zico's eyes, he believed that the man he had just met would never break his promise even more so he also saw the sincere gaze of Zico.
"Fanya's not my real daughter, Zico. But I've looked like my own son like all the other kids who live in this house." The Holy Mother seemed to sigh as her brain memory now turned the recording of Fanya's life journey.
"Fanya was with my mother since childhood. It used to be when the mother came home from the office the mother accidentally heard the cry of the baby coming from the trash. I thought at that time I was just imagining. But when the mother wants to get rid of the thing that the mother considers just a fantasy, it turns out the sound of baby crying is getting louder. As a result, the mother approached the source of the sound and at that time the mother found a black plastic bag which was large enough where the source of the sound was inside the plastic and now opened it the mother found a baby who still covered in blood without a thread though, the umbilical cord is also still wet which can be interpreted by the mother if the baby is thrown away at birth. Mother who has not had the heart with the condition of Fanya finally brought mother back to this orphanage. The next morning she reported the incident in hopes that she would know who Fanya's parents were. But you know, when the police found the whereabouts of Fanya's mother, they actually got a surprise with one corpse hanging with a rope around her neck. He ended his life. Whether as big as what problems Fanya's mother faced at that time until she decided to end her life," said the Holy Mother recounted the dark problems 20 years ago. His tears could not be contained anymore, he cried as much as he pleased.
As for Zico, the man was very surprised. He could not believe the facts he had just heard. And this is just the story of Fanya's baby, not the time she was a child until adulthood. I don't know what surprise Zico will receive when he hears the Holy Mother's story about Fanya next.
