The Desired Angel of Heaven
Chapter 11

That night Faiq visited his parents' house.  For almost two months he had not been able to visit his father and mother because of accreditation and supervision to KUA in several regions of Kemenag province.

The mood seemed quiet. Mang Deden his housekeeper immediately opened the door for his young master who had not visited for a long time.

“Please enter, den. Ladies and gentlemen are waiting in the dining room.”

“Thank you, mang.”  Faiq immediately walked towards the dining room. “Assalamu’alaikum.” He approached his parents who had been sitting at the dining table enjoying the menu that had been served mbok Darmi, a household assistant.

“Wa’alaikumussalam.” The parobaya couple welcomed their only child with longing. The silence was felt in the big house. They wanted Faiq to get married and give them grandchildren, until there was no longer the loneliness they felt.

Faiq kissed his parents' hands one by one, and immediately took a sitting position to his father's right.

“How are father and mother. For the past two months I have been out of town. So haven't been able to visit. Office activities really take up my time.”

“The name is also parents, it is definitely a lot of complaints.” said Darmawan his father. He looked at his only son who was now growing up.

Marisa smiled in response to her husband's words, “How are you. Is there a woman you're ready to bring here? Otherwise, an arranged marriage with your father's colleague Santoso's daughter will be discussed later this month.”

Faiq smiled at his mother's question. He grabbed his mother's fingers and kissed her gently, “God willing, ma'am. Pray for the best.” The sad shadow of Hani's face and the cheek cubby Hasya stopped in his mind. “I am praying and asking the owner of the heart, to open his heart to me, and accept me as his future priest.”

Hearing Faiq's words, Marisa's face became sumringah, “Wah, now I'm happy to hear it. When did you get to know her mom?” He was sure that this time Faiq would keep his promise and immediately bring a son-in-law for him.

“Wait for the right time bu.”

Darmawan looked at Faiq seriously, “If you are ready to marry, immediately end your career from ASN. I hope you will immediately replace your father as CEO at Horison Corp. Dad wants to retire as soon as possible.”

Faiq. His father's wish for this time he could not fulfill. His father's company had several branches of business, including luxury car importers, shipyards and hospitality, while his mother was a well-known diamond businessman. He was more comfortable becoming an ASN and a career as a judge in the Religious Court. He does not want to be trapped in the business world whose competition is so high. Left-right elbow, in order to perpetuate efforts to stay afloat in the business world is very cruel.

“Tak forever dad entrusts company to others. It's all yours. You can't refuse it.”

“What your father said has a point. Start thinking more mature.” Marisa rubbed her favorite son's hand. “We're getting older, this house is too big, mom wants you to get married soon, and fill this house with grandkids that are a lot of you. So, try to find a fixed partner and immediately bring it to this house.”

Faiq was silent at Marisa's words. Hani's shadow flashed in front of him, making Faiq smile at a glance.  Marisa and Darmawan look at each other to see the behavior of their only child like a person who is in love.

“Tomorrow we will have lunch with the extended family Santoso.”  Darmawan's words made Faiq riveted. “This has nothing to do with your matchmaking. Whoever you choose, I'm sure it's for the best.  Lunch tomorrow just to appreciate Santoso's invitation as dad's good friend.”

Faiq nodded in agreement. “Good. What time and where will we meet?” He started to look at the clock on his wrist. The preoccupation with chatting turns out that the day has shown at 10 pm. Faiq began to yawn in order to resist drowsiness.

“Restaurant Pasola.” Darmawan mentioned clearly. “Jam 12 is already in place. I don't want you to be late. We must appreciate the invitation from Santoso, although the matchmaking problem is not our priority to get there.”

Faiq recalled that it was a fancy restaurant, and he was sure that the one who invited them to lunch was definitely not a tin-can businessman. He shook his head, the rich are indeed hobby to throw money.  Though eating was essentially full, and Faiq never chose to eat in a certain place.

At 12 hours less 10 minutes Faiq has slid in the promised place. He saw his father and mother in the banquet chair. Faiq immediately approached them. A couple who were the same age as both parents looked at Faiq with admiring faces. There he also saw a beautiful woman dressed quite boldly who looked at him without blinking.

“Nak Faiq, long time no see.” Santoso shook Faiq's hand with a big smile. He looked to admire the figure of the young man in front of him. And his desire to get along with Darmawan is very big, because he knows the young man in front of him is very pious and understands religion. He wants to change his wild daughter for the better.

“Good day, om.” Sapa Faiq was polite. He shook Santoso's hand and at Fani's wife Santoso only cupped both hands, as he avoided shaking hands with the opposite sex.

“This is introducing Sonia. Single daughter om.” Santoso turned his gaze to his outstretched daughter, whom Faiq replied by cupping her hands to her chest. He only glimpsed the beautiful face of the woman in front of him.

“Wah, this guy, expensive selling snobs.” Inner Sonia is upset. But he tried to close his irritation with a faint smile on his red lips. “Do not call me Sonia, if not able to conquer a man like you.” his inner self in the heart. He was determined to win Faiq's heart. Moreover, hearing his papa's story that Faiq will be the successor of Darmawan in leading their company engaged in several businesses.

“We will enjoy the best dishes in this restaurant, because it has been a long time we did not have lunch together.” Santoso said as soon as the waiter started preparing some of the restaurant's main dishes. Finally, some special menus that are appetizing have been arranged nicely on the table. All the food filled the banquet table.

“Papa..” the sound of the kenes suddenly startled all who were chatting lightly before enjoying the dish. And a petite toddler suddenly clutched in Faiq's calf, making him cancel taking the drink that was already in front of him.

“Dedek Sasha...” regardless of their questionable gaze, Faiq sat Hasya in his lap. Everyone looked at Faiq and the little girl was full of question marks. Faiq kissed Hasya affectionately.

“You have lied to us, Mr. Darmawan. Turns out your son has had a child.” Santoso was annoyed to see the events in front of him. He quickly took his wife and son away from the restaurant.

The gaze of Darmawan and Marisa was like killing on Faiq. Although in fact they were also anxious to look at the cute and beautiful little guy who was spoiled on Faiq.

“Mama and papa have misunderstood.” Faiq wanted to explain the actual incident, seeing his father's face was already red and holding back anger, while Marisa was still massaging her chest that felt tight suddenly.

“Dedek...” Gigi and Fery are surprised to see Hasya sitting in a henchman's lap Faiq who is still fighting with both parents.

“Im sorry our daughter.” Fery bowed respectfully to Faiq's parents who were now stunned in disbelief. “Meet Fery and this is my wife Regina..”

Darmawan receives Fery and Regina's handshake. His worries faded immediately after hearing Regina's words. He became interested in seeing Hasya who was so innocent and adorable with his behavior to make people happy with his existence. Now he is happy to see Hasya's faith.

They introduce each other in intimacy. Hasya's presence really made the atmosphere fresh. Small talk filled with laughter accompanied their togetherness.

“Let's have lunch together.” Darmawan finally offered them lunch because the menu is very much served.

“True. Unfortunately this much menu is not spent.” Tymphal Marisa.

Fery looked at Regina, “We are still waiting for clients, we.” Said Fery. Coincidentally today he and Aditama began planning a discussion of the lease of the building owned by Aditama which Fery will use to open his contractor business.

“Nothing. Later if they come, we invite all.” Tukas Darmawan fast. The hunger began to attack him.

Marisa's eyes stared intently at the entrance. He knew a middle-aged woman who was still beautiful and fresh walking accompanied by a young husband and wife. Without thinking Marisa called out to him.

“Jeng Linda..” Marisa greets them politely. He allowed them to fill the empty seat in front of him.

Linda who came with Adi and Helen immediately approached them. “Wah, jeng Marisa has not seen you for a long time.” The two of them splashed while laughing cheerfully. Both are high school friends.

Darmawan knew his wife's friend. “Let's please mbak Linda, we enjoy lunch together. Coincidentally we also invited our new acquaintances.”

“Oh yes, I forgot to introduce my son Aditama and my son-in-law.” Linda said proudly.

Marisa smiled back at Linda, “Wah, you are lucky to have a daughter-in-law. Faiq, did you forget your sister Tama in ITB. See his wife is pregnant, I don't know when mama will have a daughter-in-law.” Marisa began to heat her son.

Adi looked at the face of the young man who was now standing before him. He began to remember that it was his younger brother, son om Darmawan, which means will be the successor of Darmawan. But all this time he had never seen her dabble in her father's business.

Darmawan realized the meaning of Adi's gaze, “Faiq is indeed wayward. Om had hoped that he would soon continue the company, but he was still in his comfort zone as ASN.” Darmawan said to the three.

Faiq reached out to greet Aditama's helping hand. He was surprised to see the resemblance of the man to the little one who moved to sit next to him. “Is this man Hasya's father who doesn't acknowledge his existence?” He remembered for a moment, “True. His name is Aditama.” Inner Faiq. He was angry and upset, but the feeling was trying to hide. He doesn't know her very well.

“Wah, apparently there is a banquet.” Linda stared at the menu of a special dish that had not been touched at all.

“Way only reunion,” sela Darmawan fast. “Come Mr. Fery, let's enjoy the dishes available.”

Gigi returned Fery's gaze while nodding. The two immediately sat down beside Faiq who was still engrossed in serving Hasya who was chattering.

Linda's eyes were glued to see the little girl who was playing with Faiq. Chest ticking. Face it, “What is this kid your grandson Marisa?” linda asked curiously. His eyes could not help but observe Hasya's behavior joking with Faiq with his slurred voice, making anyone who looked at him gurgle wanting to kiss.

“If it is true, it is certainly very pleasant. Unfortunately Faiq is still single.” Marisa replied straightforwardly while insinuating her son.

“Not met the sincere, the beautiful many.” Sela Faiq fast.

Gigi and Fery throw each other meaningful smiles at Faiq. Both of them greatly admired the personality of Faiq, who until now had not looked flawed in their eyes.

Linda directed her gaze at Fery and Gigi who had just been silent to hear their conversation.

“They are the parents of this beautiful boy.” Adi explained to his mother, “His name is Fery. He was my college friend in Singapore. He works in the field of heavy equipment contractors. Now we will cooperate, because Fery wants to rent a building on Thamrin road to open his contractor business.”

Linda couldn't believe hearing Adi's words. At least he did not see the resemblance between the two to the little girl. He turned his gaze to Adi. “Jeez...” He held his rapidly beating heart all of a sudden. The little girl looked like Adi, only her eyes were different, but overall a replica of Adi as a child was depicted on the tiny face, his curly hair is exactly the same when Adi's childhood his hair was allowed to gondrong and kriwil at the age of 3 years.
