Finally, after one week has passed since registration was done, the competition which was attended by hundreds of programmers is now held.
Preparing with all the equipment and 2 people that Ocean prepared to help Laila, the woman finally said goodbye to Andra and the ocean.
"Mama, spirit..!!" Andra whispered to her mother.
The little man still did not want to give his voice to his father.
Even to his grandmother and grandfather, he was still reluctant to speak and preferred to use writing to communicate with them.
That was because his grandmother and grandfather loved to ask various questions to lure Andra to talk to make the little man feel uncomfortable about the attitude of the two Elders.
"Thank you, if you win, you'll make you feel something amazing!" Laila said very excitedly to make the little man she was talking to cheer up and kiss Laila.
After a moment of farewell with Andra and Samudra, Laila then boarded the car and moved to where the competition was held.
Arriving there, 2 people who were with Laila directly arranged their equipment at the table that had been prepared for each participant.
While Laila, the woman is still stuck outside because she accidentally met her mother who came to take Anita.
"Laila?" Irmawati said as she was shocked to see her 5-year-old daughter now appear before her.
In fact, it was until Pangling recognized Laila who had now changed since the last time he saw her.
"You know him?" Tanya asks Rizal who is Irmawati's second husband and also Anita's biological father.
"Ahh, him? No, I only found out about it on the news." Said Irmawati evasive.
At that moment, Anita came to the two men to invite him in.
Hearing Irmawati's reply, Anita did not want to miss the opportunity to mess up Laila's mood to affect their competition.
"Dad, she was Laila, my old school friend.
He was also here to enter the competition that Anderson group held.
Oya Laila, who brought you here?" Anita asks Laila deliberately heated up that she came escorted by Layla's mother while Laila herself did not come delivered by anyone.
However, a look of disappointment surfaced on his face when he saw the woman in front of him acting very calm.
"I came alone" replied Laila, looking at Irmawati, who looked pale in fear that Laila would reveal her identity.
"Ahh, what a pity, are your father and mother busy?" Ask Anita who does not want to lose and wants to continue to drop Laila's defense.
Isn't that so, madam?" Said Laila now looking at Irmawati with a meaningful smile.
Seeing her husband now turn to her as well, Irmawati became even more afraid.
"Laila, why are you looking at my mom? Are you jealous because I have a mother and father who love me?
Hah, Dad, mom, we better get going. Laila hasn't liked me for the past 5 years.
I don't want him to take it out on Mom and Dad." Said Anita did not want to hide her irritation in front of her parents.
"Anita, it's not appropriate for you to talk like that.
He was your friend at your High School, you should have been more gentle with him" Rizal said, reprimanding his daughter before looking at Laila and patting her on the left arm.
"I'm sorry Anita, she's just impatient. Oya, if no one comes to take you, what if my wife and I are your supporters too?" Ask Rizal sincerely.
The man is quite touched by Laila's story where both of his parents now have a new family and ignore Laila.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir, I will be very happy to have some people supporting me later." Laila said with a grateful face.
'When you support your daughter's enemy, ' muttered Laila mocking inwardly.
"No! Dad, how could you do that?!
He's been underestimating me ever since we signed up here, even saying I'm a ren-"
"Anita! Can't you just be a little grateful that you still have a complete family?
While Laila, she was abandoned by her parents for their own selfishness!" Rizal snapped at his daughter before looking at Laila.
"Just today, we will both support you.
Please do your best" Rizal encouraged Laila.
"Thank you, Mrs. I won't let you down." Laila smiled as she looked at Irmawati.
