The Creak of my Friend's Bed
Finding A Child

Mickel blushed in embarrassment upon hearing his wife's words. Because he loved Kayla so much. Although they are no longer young, but Mickel's love for Kayla is always passionate.

"Darling, let's go home. It's done, and I'm calm and not curious anymore" Mickel deliberately switched the conversation to shame.

"Hemm.. couldn't say yes to take home," Kayla chuckled.

Mickel just glanced cynically without saying anything more. Because he knew, Kayla would be more tempting.

With no shame in seeing many people, Mickel embraces Kayla stepping out of the cafe.

"Darling, aren't you thinking of having another baby?" whispered Mickel on the sidelines stepping with Kayla.

"Astaghfirullah aladzim."

Kayla stopped her steps when she heard Mickel's words.

While Mickel squinted his eyebrows, "why dear? what did I say wrong?"

"Big mistake, Brother. What you should have said was, when you had a grandson. Don't want to have any more kids! ahaduhhh... Mimi's sister why the hell? jealous, now suddenly want to have another child."

"Son would not be ashamed if I were pregnant again. But I cannot face this world. Wanna put where my face is, brother? it's dech, don't make it so!"

Mickel glanced cynically at Kayla who was pursing her lips in annoyance with her husband's behavior this morning.

As they were about to get into the car, suddenly there was the sound of a child crying.

"Mother....Ms....mother...where is it?"

Mickel and Kayla find out the source of the sound. And they found a five-year-old girl crying next to Mickel's car.

"Heh, pretty. Where's your mom?" Kayla tries to get the child to communicate.

The boy just shook his head and continued to cry. This makes Kayla and Mickel heartless as well.

"Darling, can we just take yuk home?" mickel's advice.

"No, Brother. If we take it home, there will be problems. But let's just take it to the police station, let the police handle this kid."

Mickel agreed, and at that time he called the police officers he knew to immediately come to the location where he currently found a small child.

📱" Ben, hurry to cafeteria now. Right in the car park, because I found a crying girl looking for her mother. About five years old."

📱"Ready bro. Plunge the gas, I'll be heading to TKP."

"Ben, that's his son. We didn't dare bring her home, so I called you."

Mickel pointed towards the boy who was currently eating voraciously.

This child was no longer crying, but was enjoying the food given by Kayla.

"Your actions are right, bro. Because now there is a mode of fraud. By putting a small child, and if there is a person who pity the child and will bring the child. Must have come to his parents later, and yelled kidnapping."

"If it's like that, the one who helps can't dwell. Already kidnapped, even though he's been defending himself."

"Eventually, the parents of the children asked for compensation in the form of some money to keep their mouths shut so as not to report it to the police station."

Kayla and Mickel were flabbergasted when they heard the explanation from Beno as the Chief of police who had been titled Kombes or the Great Commissioner.

"Sweetie, it's a good thing that you suggested to me to call the police, otherwise we could be trapped as Beno told us just now" Mickel confirmed Kayla's actions.

At that time, Beno asked some of his men to take the child to the police station. Even Kayla and Mickel were asked to briefly participate in the police station to be questioned as a formality for their discovery of the child.

Unbeknownst to them from afar was an old grandmother, who kept lurking from under cover, "let my granddaughter be taken by the police. Than I bother to take care of it while the child's mother doesn't care. Work abroad do not remember to send money!"

The grandmother simply passed by without any remorse for throwing away her own granddaughter. His deep anger towards his son-in-law, thus making himself bear to his own grandson.

"It's a good thing my granddaughter was following me when I taught her to cry to her mother. I have to get out of this town, before the police find my home and return my granddaughter. Because I can no longer afford to take care of him in this way."

The grandmother only worked as a scavenger, so she could not afford to give her grandson a decent life. The father of the child died when the child was four years old.

And since her husband died, the son-in-law said goodbye to work as TKW abroad. He even promised to send money every month for the needs of the grandmother and grandchild. But for almost a year, the son-in-law did not give any news at all. The grandmother who was not young anymore, overwhelmed to take care of her grandson alone.

After a long time at the police station, Kayla and Mickel are allowed to go home. However, Beno asked for help," Bro, I nitip this kid in your house first huh. Later if the parents of the child are found, I will immediately go to your house. Because nobody in this office takes care of it. Everyone bothers, and so do I. What else is currently handling a big case. I'm begging you guys for a moment to take care of this kid, yeah."

Great Commissioner Beno put a face as he cupped his hands to his chest.

Until in the end, neither Kayla nor Mickel had the heart either. They were also willing to take care of the little boy for a while. A couple who are not young enough to bring back the little one for them to take care of at home.

"No, brother. Your prayers are heard by God, you want to have another child, right? without me having to get pregnant again, now we have another child. Even straight away five years old," Kayla chuckled.

For a moment Kayla played around with the little guy and asked him what his name was, "what's your name, baby? do you also know your mother's name?"

"I'm Airin. My mother's Rindi."

Kayla nodded her head, and she kept Airin chatting with the intention of extracting information from Airin about her mother and her home. But Airin could only respond to a few questions.
