Farhan was still speechless hearing the story of his past from Mr. Sadewa. Yes, the man who hugged him earlier was Mr. Sadewa - his father Alira which means his parents as well.
"Papa Sama is very sad because of your loss, especially your mother. He was stressed, crying every day, not eating, not drinking, until Papa finally took him to the city. Hopefully the new atmosphere can make him a little forget about you," said Mr. Sadewa, for a moment the shadow of his wife's face appeared in the head.
He still remembers a long time ago when little Farhan lost playing with Gus Irham. At that time they were on vacation to the park Farhan and Gus Irham separated unknowingly because chasing a balloon seller. They looked for him even to the point of asking to be broadcast the news of the loss through a loudspeaker. Luckily there are good people who are willing to deliver Gus Irham to Kyai Syarif which at that time was not yet the great Kyai as it is now. Another with Farhan, his son could not be found for days.
Mr. Sadewa and a few people were deliberately paid to help him search until he finally resigned and gave up.
""Papa was desperate and resigned, but a few days ago Papa's men managed to trace your whereabouts," concluded Mr. Sadewa ended the story.
A state of silence for a moment, preoccupied with each other's thoughts. Farhan himself still does not believe in the real reality if he is the son of Mr. Sadewa.
Mr. Sadewa said goodbye and promised to visit him often. He was very relieved to know that his son was still alive and even had grown up.
When she arrived at Alira's house waiting for her, the girl was very anxious when she found out her father had left without saying goodbye.
Mr. Sadewa did not answer. However, from the look of his face was very clear not if he was happy.
"Does it look like you're happy to have a new project?"
"More than that."
They walked into the house together. The curious Alira kept stalking her papa from behind.
"Come on, Dad, where's Papa coming from?"
Instead of answering the 55-year-old man just smiling makes Alira more curious. These few days his papa was moody and now suddenly his face was so cheerful.
"Later Papa told me, now Papa is tired of taking a break first."
"Well, Pah! Papa!"
Mr. Sadewa did not make the call of his daughter, he kept walking into the room whistling and then shut the door tightly.
"Why the hell, weird thing?"
Alira became worried about seeing his unusual behavior.
"I'd better call Mas Irham and tell him to come home."
Alira immediately returned to the room to pick up her phone to contact her husband. However, many times Gus Irham's number was contacted, but not raised at all. Finally Alira just left a message so that if the study is finished immediately go home.
After sending a message to her husband Alira to save her handphone and then her legs swayed to the kitchen, she wanted to help Ma'am Imah and Nurul prepare dinner.
At around five in the afternoon Gus Irham came home with Alira who was impatient to tell about his papa.
"Gus, Papa is so weird today? Go don't tell me, coming home seems really happy. Why would you, Gus?"
Newly entered Alira had already been looking for him with questions. Gus Irham who was taking off his suit turned to his wife.
"Isn't it good for Papa to be happy? Don't you like Papa happy?" gus Irham replied calmly as usual.
Alira received a suit from Gus Irham and kept it behind the door.
"That's not what I mean, but Papa's really weird today?"
Gus Irham smiled, he knew Alira was only worried about her papa eating her he was afraid of her to excess.
"Let me ask Papa. I want to shower first we pray together."
"Community does not pray in the mosque?"
"Today I want to pray in congregation with my beloved wife." He said then closed the door.
Both cheeks of Alira immediately turned harrumphed with the words of her husband just now. He remembered his promise to himself that tonight Gus Irham asked for his right Alira was ready.
"Eh, it's a pity to sit near Papa there's something Papa wants to talk about!" Mr. Sadewa patted the right side of the sofa that was still empty.
After dinner Mr. Sadewa deliberately sat in the family room because he wanted to tell about Farhan.
Alira according to while Gus Irham sat on the sofa halfway to the right of her in-laws.
"Papa want to tell me something, but don't you get mad, same Papa?" asked Mr. Sadewa carefully because, he was afraid that Alira was angry because he had just told her that he had an older brother.
Alira looks at her husband and then turns back to her papa.
"What Pah, it looks serious?"
Mr. Sadewa took a deep breath before starting the story, Alira heard carefully from beginning to end. Although a little disappointed because for years new to know if he has sodara. That was his dream long ago.
Being an only child and always being left to work makes him often feel lonely. That's why he used to go out of the house especially if not to comfort his lonely self.
"I'm sorry Papa just told me now. Actually Papa has resigned and sincere if indeed your brother can not be found, but a week ago Papa's men managed to find him," he said.
Alira just silently heard the story of her father in search of her brother. His father suffered more than he did. Losing the baby for years is certainly very torturous.
"Which brother, Pah, why not take it home? Alira would also like to meet you, Pah?"
Alira used to think that if he had sodara himself could be spoiled for him because basically he was very spoiled, just that his father was always busy working so he sought his own pleasure.
"Papa Tesok invites you to meet him, you know him," said Mr. Sadewa with a sparkling face.
Alira also looks at each other.
"Alira knows, Pah? Who?"
Alira guessed some names of her male friends. However, none of them believed to be his brother because he also knew his family.
"Come on, Pah, don't play guessing? Tell me who he is?"
Alira was so curious about what kind of figure her brother was. Is it similar to her? Alira can't wait to see you soon.
"Later you will also know," he replied, making Alira curious and then passed into the room.
Alira and her husband are still sitting while thinking, guessing who the person meant by her father.
"I guess he's in vain, Gus? Why don't you know why play guessing? Ish, just curious?" Alira grumbled indistinctly, why did her papa make her curious like this.
Gus Irham just smiled then moved to sit beside Alira, rubbing his wife's shoulder.
"Patience, said papa tomorrow we go there." Gus Irham tried to calm his upset wife.
"Ck, you don't know, Gus, if I've always wanted to have a sister?" Instead of being calm Alira was even more upset making Gus Irham confused what to do.
"Yes I know, but you have to learn patience, huh?"
Alira nodded then they moved to the room, but suddenly Alira stopped her steps at the door.
"What's wrong?" ask Gus Irham.
"Don't he ...,"
