Flashback.
"Morning.. The morning.. Daddy," Nayla picked up a warm fried banana next to Mr. Hadi, who was sitting down enjoying a cup of sweet coffee with a view to a leafy courtyard full of colorful plants.
Pak Hadi's reflexes turned towards the source of the voice that called out to him. "Tumben, the language used from sebrang? Far away," replied Nayla's father with a sudden expression of melow's face. Something was holding his heart.
But what is it? I don't know?
Only Mr. Hadi knows. He did not want to show his wife and daughter that. From bachelor to have a quiet and happy little family. Mr. Hadi always keeps meetings if there is something that may not be acceptable to his small family, even he is afraid to even be troublesome to the person of his house. And that trait goes down to Nayla, his favorite daughter. Eleven-twelve with her father, Nayla always wanted to solve it herself, if there was a problem. Unless he gets the way he needs and immediately finds a solution. Only he asked his father's opinion, but he did not open up gamlang about who else got the problem.
Nayla laughs. "There's prohibition?" the question was spoken to his father who was staring at him with a different gaze than usual. "Dad, healthy?" Nayla squinted her net until it almost scared her eyebrows.
"healthy! It's definitely healthy, Dad," said Dad.
"Dad.." Nayla grabbed his father's hand and clasped him tightly. "Don't keep everything alone, Dad. Nae is now not a child anymore, who can be lied to Dad like yesterday-yesterday. Nae loves Mom and Dad. Nae wants us to always be together in joy and sorrow, Dad. Nae wants Father and Mother to be able to accompany Nae at the bachelor graduation event, Nae. Until Nae sits at the door and has a cute baby and genius like her grandfather," Nayla's gaze rests on the gaze of the man who became the Hero, in her life.
"Amen.. Aamin.. Aamin Ya Robballallamin," Nayla's father's prayer with the corner of his lips drew a smile.
Although on his face is already visible the line of aging, but Mr. Hadi remains eager to make his family happy and harmonious.
"Dad.." call Nayla.
After spending the last sip of coffee in his white cup, only Pak Hadi focused his gaze on Nayla. "Yes, Nae. What was? Speak, little princess, Father."
"It's big, Dad," she said.
"Yes-yes.. Go ahead, what did you want to talk to me about?" said Mr. Hadi while wiping his lips from the rest of the coffee stuck to his lips.
Nayla looked at her father, then took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. "Dad, today is the announcement of the results of the admission test of new students at the University of Nae choice, in Yogjakarta."
Silent moment.
"Yes, Dad," Nayla replied enthusiastically.
Mr. Hadi frowned. "Are you sure, accepted?"
"Sure, Dad! Nae, sure must have been accepted at the favorite University, Nae's. Do you mind?" Nayla looked at her father with a gaze demanding an immediate answer.
Mr. Hadi smiled as usual, without looking at his heart. Who rejected the decision of his only daughter.
"Whatever's best and has been an option, Nae. I can only pray and give my blessing and condolences to my beautiful daughter."
In a pinched position, just like this time. Mr. Hadi can still speak wisely and comment on the thin smile on his face, which still looks handsome in his old age.
"Thank you, Dad. Honey," Nayla stood up from her chair and rushed straight into her father's arms.
****
Nayla is very happy to be accepted at her favorite University. But happiness is only for a moment. The flat object that was still within his grasp was, ringing. And showing a picture of the three of them in PP, which is listed by the name of Mother, my paradise.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Mother," greetings Nayla.
No words came out of his mother's lips. Just the sound of crying from there.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
Not long after, Nayla fell unconscious.
Rahadian who sat next to Nayla, spontaneously jumped Nayla's slender body, so as not to fall on the floor.
"Why, Nayla?" ask
His friends swarm Nayla's body while applying eucalyptus oil to resuscitate Nayla from her stupor.
After waiting for a while. Nayla finally woke up from her stupor. And immediately told me that his father had a traffic accident.
