Not the Perfect Wife
142. S2 - Meet Nayla's father
In a famous nightclub, look frenetic night. They are all soluble in music and flickering lights. Everyone is rocking around following the music played by a DJ.
Everyone dissolves with their pleasure. The deafening music sounded melodious in their sense of hearing. The dim lights actually make them more free to do what they want.
Aydin chose to sit at the bartender's table. He just ordered juice. Drinks that actually look strange when a man who came to order it. Aydin looked around trying to find the whereabouts of the person he was looking for.
"Abserving someone?" ask a woman who approached Aydin.
"Yes" said Aydin briefly.
"Why should you look for someone else. Here is me," woo the woman by rubbing Aydin's thigh. The man immediately brushed it off. He felt disgusted to be treated like that.
"Sorry, Ma'am. I'm looking for this guy. Do you know him?" ask Aydin while showing a picture of Nayla's father.
"Roni? I know him, but for a few days he has not come because he is being hunted by the men of a loan shark. He's got a lot of debt here and there. Does he owe you the same?"
"No, I just have a little need. Do you know where she lives?"
Aydin did not expect that Roni had any business with loan sharks or anything like that. Nayla was a good girl, but why was her father like that?
"I didn't know maybe you could find him at his ex-wife's house. He said he likes to go there asking for money on his late wife's son, just ask them."
"thank you. Then I'll say good."
Aydin immediately left the place. He couldn't stand the atmosphere there anymore. The man was surprised, how people could stand being in a place with a variety of smells that were very pungent and made his head hurt.
Aydin decides to go home, tomorrow he comes to the house of Nayla's late father's wife. Hopefully they will help.

"How was the search last night, brother?" yasna asked Aydin when they were enjoying breakfast.
"Not seen yet, Mother. Later after lunch, I will come to the house of the late wife of Mr. Roni. I had a meeting this morning" Aydin replied.
"Sister should be careful, yes, when talking. Don't hurt their hearts. That family must have been heartbroken by what Nayla's father did."
"Yes, Mother."
"What time did you come home last night? Mother doesn't know you're home."
"Alright, Honey. Why are you asking that detail? Aydin can take care of himself. You better take care of your health. Don't think too much of them?" emran sela. He knew for sure his son must be confused looking for the right reason.
"I'm just asking, Mom," said Yasna. He was only worried about Aydin.
"Papa's right, Mother. Mother should take care of health. I don't want to because I'm worried that Mother's getting sick. I can't calm down then. Mother also knows where I'm going."
"Yes, Mommy will take care of your health and you should be fine too."
"Here you go, come on, let's have breakfast! We'll be late" said Emran.
"Yes, Pa," said Yasna. "Afrin want to bring supplies?"
"Yes, Mother."
They enjoyed breakfast quietly. When they are finished, everyone leaves. Aydin and Emran go to work. Everyone in the company knows who Aydin really is. Semerntara Afrin delivered Pak Hari.

After work, Aydin heads to the house of Nayla's father's ex-wife. He was canceled this afternoon because of a sudden job. Only now did the man have time.
Aydin has arrived at a house. Viewed the house in front of him now, quite large. Nayla's father wants to control her property.
"Sorry, sir, find who?" ask a security guard who works in the house.
"I want to meet the owner of this house, sir," Aydin replied.
"Is there a need or something let me tell you."
"I want to ask the owner of this house something."
"Father what's his name?"
"My name is Aydin."
"All right, I say it first." The security guard entered the house without opening the gate. He had to make sure that his employer would accept the guest.
"Please come in, sir," said the security guard as he returned home. The man opened the gate and allowed Aydin to take his car in.
"Assalamualaikum" said Aydin.
"Waalaikumsalam" said a woman who Aydin believed was a domestic assistant in the house.
"Please sit down, sir. My employer's still in the room, coming out soon."
"Thank you, Mom." The woman just nodded and passed.
Aydin sat in the living room. He waited long enough. The man was upset too, it seemed like the owner of the house did not appreciate his arrival at all, but because Aydin desperately needed an answer from the host, he was forced to wait patiently. There were footsteps approaching the living room.
"Sir Aydin!" exclaim the host.
"Sir Aryan! Is this your home?"
"Yes, Sir. Sorry for keeping you waiting."
"I should apologize for interrupting your break."
"It's okay, please sit down."
"May I know, what made you look for me? Said the security guard, you want to ask me something."
"I just want to ask you about this guy" Aydin said, showing a picture of Nayla's father.
Arya was surprised to learn that Aydin knew Roni. In the man's heart he asked, What is Aydin related to Roni?
"Rone!" exclaim Arya. "You know that guy too? Did he make trouble with you?"
"I don't know him. I have no problem with him either. I have a need with him. Do you know where he lives now?"
"Actually I'm very lazy to talk about it."
"I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable, but I really wanted to meet him. It's very important to me."
Arya sighed. His life has been very disturbed by the presence of Roni when married to his mother. Even when his mother died, the man still troubled him.
"He's in the back house. I had already kicked him out a few times, but the bottom he had no shame in, finally came back again. I also let him stay at the back house as long as it doesn't bother us."
Aydin was very pleased. He no longer needed to find Roni's whereabouts.
"Does he still live there now?" ask Aydin.
"I don't know that now. He always goes home. If Mr. Aydin wants to see it, I can drive."
"Can?"
"Sure, come!"
Arya takes Aydin to the back of the house where the workers in this house rest. They're going to meet Nayla's father, Roni.
As soon as it arrived in front of the man's room. Arya knocked on the door several times, until the door opened. Looks like someone who just woke up opened it and it was Nayla's father.
However, Roni's appearance is not like the one in the photo. The man seemed unkempt, maybe even a few days without a bath.
"What's here I'm not bothering you?" ask Roni.
"Someone's looking for you. Don't make trouble in my house" said Arya. "This is Mr. Aydin the man you're looking for."
"Sorry, Sir. May I speak with you for a moment?" ask Aydin.
"Who are you? I don't know you."
"You don't know me, but surely you remember a woman named Nayla." Aydin could see if the man was surprised.
