Khaira enters the house. The atmosphere feels lonely. He had not heard or seen the twins at home. Khaira headed for the room, it was possible that the two of them had already taken a nap. Again, he found neither.
“Which twin is Bu?” Khaira was amazed to see Giyem's mother who was cooking in the kitchen.
“Tadi ndak want to come home,” bu Giyem looked at Khaira with uncomfortable feeling, he felt worried Khaira would scold him.
“I'll catch up with him now,” Khaira glances at the clock on her wrist,” It's time for lunch and sleep.”
He casually opened the gate of the house to the Danu residence. He was determined to talk to Danu.
“Assalamu’alaikum... “ Khaira's soft voice sayup-sayup up in Danu's ear who sat checking email in the middle room.
He quickly got up from the chair and opened the side door. Khaira's smile was on her heels seeing her appearance.
“Sorry, I'll pick up the twins. Thanks for helping me a lot.”
“Nothing. I am happy because the presence of the twins can entertain mother and father,” Danu replied while scratching his non-itchy nape, “I call the twins first ..”.
Khaira waited on the side porch of the house. His eyes rolled around the large, shady yard and filled with a variety of children's favorite toys. There are swings, slides and others such as kindergartens that move to Danu's house.
Khaira heard the voice of Dew who refused Danu's invitation which was heard trying hard to persuade him.
“Mother is already ahead. Go home yok, want to be invited to walk equally .... “Andu persuaded Dew who was still in Ivan's sling, “Bos, mistress in front.”
With a heavy feeling Ivan lowered the Dew. Both replace the aircraft play with Ivan in the air makes both alarm.
“Come home yes princes beautiful dad and prince handsome dad .... “ Ivan dipped the two in turn.
“Ndak .... “ Dew still refused.
Danu was so sorry to see the sight before him. With a sad feeling Ivan held the Dew and gave it to Danu.
“Main tama dad .... “ Dew tried to resist, forced Danu to take him out of the room with Fajar followed behind him.
Khaira was astonished to see the Dew acting strangely today. He never refused to come home.
“Come home. Ade and mas should rest. Tomorrow we go home and play together mbak Khansa and mas Fadhil ya .... “ Khaira tries to persuade Dewun when he grabs her from Danu's sling.
“You play daddy .... “ Dew is still insisting and trying to release his hand from Khaira's grip.
“Ade ... “ Khaira still trying to persuade him, “Kasian mas already drowsy.”
Khaira looked at the tired-looking Dawn. He did play the slide and remote car but remained under Ivan's supervision.
“Dakn't want to go home. Want in cini tama dad .... “ Dew still do not want to hear the words of Khaira.
“Adee ... Mother said what!” khaira's voice began to be loud until it was heard in Ivan's ear.
Dew was instantly speechless hearing the sound of his bunda. His round eyes glazed. Just this time he heard the loud voice of his mother.
“Hu uhuuuk .. uhuk ... hu ... hu .. hu ..... “ her tears instantly broke.
Seeing his crying twin Dawn immediately hugged Khaira's knee. He fell silent in fear. Her tears flowed by themselves.
Khaira felt sad because he let out a high tone when talking to Dew that he had never done so far.
“Pardon my dear mother ... “ hurriedly Khaira grabbed the Dew into her arms. The water flows directly into the river, “Sayang mother sorryin mother yes .... “
“Mbak Aisya .... “ Danu feels uncomfortable seeing the scene happening before her.
“Please mas Danu, from now on do not approach my children again. I don't want Danu to give hope to the twins who don't know anything. So I beg ..... “
Ivan patted his chest that felt tight. He could no longer hold back. The playroom door is open.
“Why did you make my kids cry?” ivan's voice stopped Khaira's words.
Danu did not expect his boss to come out of hiding which had been the safest place for him to get closer and accompany his baby to play.
Khaira was shocked by Ivan's presence inside the mansion. Something he never thought of at all. Means all this time the so-called father of the twins is not Danu but ....
“Daddy ... tama father ... “ saw the appearance of Ivan made Dew extend his hand so that Ivan took it from Khaira's embrace.
“Sorry sir, you have no right to say that,” Khaira stared at Ivan sharply, “They are my children.”
“How could you be that cruel Rara?” Ivan shook his head in disbelief at Khaira's words, “I am the biological father of the twins. And I have rights over them.”
Danu was uncomfortable hearing the conversation between the boss and the twins. He felt sad to see the twins watching the feud that occurred.
“Ayo mas, let's take you home,” Danu approached Fajar who was still hugging Khaira's knee.
He immediately carried Dawn and drove her home. He believes the art in Khaira's house can calm Dawn. The boy according to all Danu's words. He was so afraid to see his mother who looked angry that it made Dew cry loudly.
In a hurry Khaira came out of Ivan's house. He wishes it were all just a dream and soon awakens from a nightmare that only brings him back to the bleak times he has forgotten.
Ivan pressed his chest that hurt. The sound of Dew constantly calling out to him made his heart feel severed. This is what he fears the most. Khaira had rejected him and did not accept his presence. Ivan's tears glided, he could not avoid.
Azan Zuhur heard from the mosque hut. Ivan wiped his face trying to wipe away the uncontrollably flowing remains of tears. Danu returned home with a sad face. He did not dare to speak to Ivan. He can feel the sadness that happened to his boss. He was also concerned about the situation of the twins, but want how else. It's all been happening. He only prays for the best for all.
A while later Danu came out of the room already wearing cocoa and sarong cloth to carry out Zuhur prayer berjama’ah in the mosque.
“Dan, please get me a check in my workspace.”
“Good Boss.”
Without asking a word Danu carried out all Ivan's orders. He came with a blank check complete with his pen.
As quickly as lightning Ivan wrote the numbers on the check, then handed it back to Danu.
“Please convey to ustadz Hanan.”
“Good Boss. Excuse me, assalamu’alaikum ..”
“Wa’alaikumussalam,” Ivan replied quietly while rubbing his face with his right hand.
The atmosphere of the mosque is empty. Ustadz Hanan was still talking with the ustadz and the kyai sepuh who were still sitting together. He was surprised when Danu delivered a check directly to his house before he went down to the mosque.
“Hopefully with this help, Allah eases the way for my boss,” only that was spoken Danu when giving an envelope containing a check on him, “Please accept Ustadz.”
Ustadz Hanan's forehead is wrinkled when looking at the nominal listed with zero as much as 10 pieces behind the number one.
When the kyai and ustadz had returned to their respective homes, ustadz Hanan saw the figure of Ivan who was still bowed to the floor of the mosque.
“Assalamu’alaikum,” ustadz Hanan sitting next to Ivan.
“Wa’alaikumussalam,” replied Ivan briefly.
Ustadz Hanan looked at Ivan's grim-looking face. Her eyes are red. He was sure something had happened.
“Maybe this is the greatest test God has placed on you. Rest assured, Allah will not test beyond the ability of His servant,” ustadz Hanan said as he patted Ivan on the shoulder to encourage him, “If you manage to live patiently, then, then God will soon give greater gifts.”
“Thank you,” a smile wrapped in grief appeared on Ivan's face.
“May the material support you provide useful for the cottage and the region around here,” do not forget ustadz Hanan to thank him, “Para kyai and village elders also mendo’ the best for the integrity of your family.”
Ivan's steps felt light when he returned home. This time he also performed the Zuhur prayer in the mosque. He was worried that his presence during the day would surprise Khaira. But that doesn't mean anything anymore. Khaira already knows. Ivan continued with Plan C to restore the integrity of his household.
Ivan rose from his long daze when he saw the lamp in Khaira's house brightly lit. He continued to observe from his room on the second floor. A car enters Khaira's courtyard. Unduringly then came the sound of weeping Dew.
Ivan sharpened his vision. He saw the figure of Anwar carrying the Dewun and Totok sir who carried Fajar into the car, followed by Khaira who carried a travel bag in a hurry.
Ivan hurriedly went down. He quickly opened the side door. It was too late for the car to move.
“What happened Bu?” Ivan immediately asked Giyem's mother who was about to close the door of the house.
“Dede Her body hump is hot high. I couldn't sleep all night. So is the Dawn.”
“Yes, Allah,” Ivan's heart feels dislodged hearing the words of Bu Giyem, “Where are they carrying the twins Bu?”
“To where doctor Anwar.”
“Thanks Mom,” Ivan immediately said goodbye to Bu Giyem.
When he arrived home, without thinking long Ivan immediately took the car keys on the glass sideboard. He will follow the twins. He doesn't want anything to happen to both.
Hearing the fast walking footsteps, made the new Danu fall asleep, awaken again. He's out of the room.
“Where to Boss?’
“I'll catch up with the twins. They took Anwar to the puskesmas. High heat dew.”
“Astaghfirullahal’adjim .... “ Danu flabbergasted to hear Ivan say, “I'm with Bos.”
“Not necessary. Tomorrow you have a visit to the project.”
“Ya Boss,” Danu relented hearing Ivan's remark, “May the twins be okay Boss.”
“I also hope so.”
Danu looked at Ivan's departure with a raging feeling. He doesn't know what to do. Everything is out of his control. After the car that Ivan was driving out of the yard, Danu immediately closed the door again.
