MY HEART HAS DIJLEB-JLEBIN YOU
CHECKMATE

A bodyguard hastily opened the car door for his master, Monica. Monica who had just arrived in her homeland was headed straight for the hospital. Longing, sadness, and disappointment seemed to melt into one sip of space in Monica's heart. It was hard to meet the mother, Nila, with failure. In the end, Monica failed to fulfill her parents' request to take Nia with her to Taiwan.

Monica thought it would be easy to fulfill the requests of her parents. But Nia's actual condition with Nia's condition in Monica's prediction was completely different! Nia does not live in an orphanage but rather in an elite complex. Nia also did not attend school with the help of a full scholarship but attended a school whose building money reached tens of millions in one month.

And Monica's most distant prediction misses is, it turns out Nia does not live a stick of kara. Not only has her biological mother still alive, Nia even has a lover who is very, very sane! Monica, who never once had a threat from someone in her life, finally explained what it was like to be threatened for the first time through an insane man named Zaim Alfarezi!

CLAMPS

"Mahs. Huh."

"Monic." Nila smiled at Monica who had just entered her nursery.

"The plane you're delaying? You said flying in the afternoon at this hour?" A man who at first glance looks like Jackie Chan, Monaco, ended his activity filling crossword puzzle books.

"Yes delay, Pah."

Nila looked towards the door of her room. "So Nia really didn't come here huh?"

"I'm sorry, Mah. I've been trying."

"It's okay. Mom also apologized. What matters is that her life is good. Mama, that's enough."

Monica wiped Nila's tears. "Yes, Nia's life is good there. His real mother is rich. He also attended an elite school. He also has a lot of friends. He was happy there."

Nila nodded. "Judek. Mama is quite the same. Thanks yeah. I'm sorry to have to take care of you again."

"I'm also sorry for not being able to accept Mamah's request."

Nila nodded, but slowly began to sob. "But free Mamah lived if he could not meet Nia and apologized directly. Why is life not calm? Mending Mamah is dead ka–"

"What the hell are you, Nila!" exclaimed Monaco. "That should be wrong with the boy. Very arrogant really in vain until you can not understand the good intentions of his Mom."

"That's why I'm so mean to him."

"Everyone was bad! Basically, that kid is a vengeful boy!" Monaco is still crying out. "Let Papah bring him here."

Monica reflexes chasing Monaco. "Bah, wait, Pah. No need to mend, Pah. Love Nia time. What Mamah did in the past was so bad that Nia was traumatized."

"So you know your mom is wrong. Papah knows his story. But if he is a belom can meet with Mamah mamu, as little as the price of his good intentions dong. Phone cake, video call cake. Aye right? Papah said basically the boy was vindictive. You take care of your mother."

"Bah, wait."

"Monica Yin!" Monaco called again.

"please-please. I don't want to let Papah go. I'm just saying Papah needs to be careful with Zaim Alfarezi. He's Nia's boyfriend. He's the one who kicked me out of Indonesia."

"Excused? He dares to nge you? That Zaim Alfarezi?"

"Haw, Pah, he kicked me out of ka–"

"It's not natural" Monaco interrupted as he rolled up his shirt arm. "She's been teasing Papah's self-esteem. Wh why? Because the child brings the dignity of his parents. So it makes no difference. If she ngusir you, then she also ngusir Papah."

"That. Bye, please, Pa–"

BRACKET

Nila's cry instantly broke, along with the deafening sound of her bedroom door slamming. If Monaco rolled up his sleeve and showed off the angel of death tattoo that filled both hands to the public. Since taking off his gangster title, Monaco has almost always worn a long-sleeved shirt every day, but today Monaco has instead deliberately rolled up his shirt. Where that means, the current status of Monaco is not the swordang Cave Bao* on the edge of Furung Beach!

*Gua Bao is similar to a sandwich, only it contains boiled meat that has been seasoned. The meat that is usually used for stuffing is pork. But there is also a stuffing of beef, chicken, eggs or fish. Bao Cave is served with the addition of mustard pickles, coriander leaves, peanuts, and mustard.

"Carson, Duyi. Keep on cumpulin a hundred people. I wait at the airport. We're flying to Indonesia."

"Good." Monica's personal bodyguard bowed while opening the car door for Monaco.

CLAMPS

Nia ignored Zaim's invitation, and returned to the house with a lazy step. Ever since showing off her hysterical cries to Zaim on the way to Puncak the other day, Nia knew Zaim was desperately trying to cheer him up. But to be honest, Nia's feelings are getting worse. Denar's words suddenly rang in Nia's ears. Time can change anything, including humans. Yes, Nia agrees with that. But why to this day the mood of Nia does not improve?

"Wouldn't you?" ask Zaim again. "It's kind of like yuk? Or play golf? Or play gokart*?"

*Gokart is a four-wheeled vehicle like a car. Gokart is usually used as a means of entertainment and racing like formula one racing. The shape is smaller than other four-wheeled vehicles and has a smaller engine capacity.

"It's still early morning hours" said Nia finally.

"That's exactly it, dear. Morning is healthy. Wake up your mom and Ikbal all over."

"Mother out of town met her. Ikbal nginep in Esa's house."

"Jaudah if that's what you are. Yuk." yuk."

Nia shaking. "Wouldn't. The vow. I don't want to."

Zaim gave up, realizing that his efforts this time to entertain the lover also failed miserably! Zaim thought that perhaps all this time Nia had always refused his invitation because the invitation was more to something that Zaim liked. So it is only natural that if Nia rejects Zaim's invitation to bike, play golf and play gokart. But Zaim believes the result will be different if he is happy to follow what Nia wants to like. And that belief is exactly right.

"How about I do all your activities all day? So whatever your activities all day I will follow. Want it makeup, hair shaving, pink dress, all I follow."

Nia looked at Zaim. "Seriously?"

"Mmm, yes, dear. But what I said was just an example."

"But today I plan to try the new foundation I bought, try the hair tutorial Han So Hee, just take this laundry shoe dress," sela Nia while pointing at her pajamas which happened to be pink. "Okay I want to." Nia. "It was the first activity. To the back alley."

"To what alley, dear?"

"Gang. Ngantri nasi uduk the same fried Bu Jum. Come on, sneak."

Zaim did not reply, only following Nia while asking in his heart, Is this the weapon called the master's meal? Damn, it was really scary! After taking part in the first activity of Nia in welcoming Sunday morning, continue to the second activity. Making asinan rambutan. It does not matter if the fruit is available. The problem is that the haired fruit must be harvested first. And the most problematic thing is, how to harvest the fruit!

"Seriously you want to climb?"

Nia nodded in response to Zaim. "Can't you?"

"It's not possible, but it's my first time, baby. As far as I can we can manen the fruit using the stairs or the pole right?"

"Yes. But I don't have."

"OK I'll buy a minute."

Nia pulls Zaim's shirt. "My activity today is not to buy the stairs as well as not."

Checkmate! Apparently besides the late brother, there are still others who can make the tongue of a Zaim Alfarezi curly! And the second activity of the day was finished with a new fact that Zaim who has signs of Acrophobia*. Next, the third activity. Making asinan rambutan. Of course, in this third Nia activity Zaim can follow it without being threatened by stress. But for God's sake, Nia's fourth fifth and umpteenth activities are really like getting Zaim's manhood stripped naked.

*phobia or excessive fear of heights. The fear experienced by people with this phobia can cause several symptoms such as anxiety, stress, or panic.

"Honey, the mask is dry."

"Belomlah" answered Nia.

"But my face is rich there is such a sound of crete."

"Your self-worth times the sound of kretek."

And again, checkmate! Even so Zaim sincerely did it. Yes, as long as it can bring back the cheerful, agile and silly Nia, Zaim is willing to destroy her pride every day. And the whole Nia activity was done that day. Zaim was happy because Nia's face looked much better. Zaim also paid his way home, while hugging small setoples pickled rambutan called Nia as a trophy award. Zaim kissed Nia's forehead repeatedly and alternately kissed the backs of his hands.

"I promise you, I'll go back to Denar's future. But I'm sorry I can't start without Denar's agreement. The fear of Denar's life is now the life he wants. Got it*?"

*ngerti, right?

"Yes." Yeah."

Zaim smiled. "Good night, honey. I love you."
