"Dhana..."
Reverie handsome man who had turned forty-three years old was scattered instantly when the typical baritone voice of the father who came to him in the side yard. The surprised Dhana turned his head, his eyes looking wet and haphazard after a fight with Mala a few hours ago.
"Why are you, son? Why do you daydream in the afternoon like this? Alone anyway. You've been fighting with your wife again?" said Mr. Aidi while sitting with Dhana.
"Yes that way, Dad. Mala returns home after picking up Damar, but she doesn't bring Wulan. Mala left her own daughter at school and this has happened very, very often, Dad. Mala's heart was completely sealed so that she could not see Wulan's affection." replied Dhana who looked riled and stressed.
"Dad didn't really expect Mala to turn this bad, son. His once meek nature, full of love and affection, has now turned completely cold, selfish, and does not think about the feelings of others due to his words. I hope Mala can change, return like Mala we used to know. You need to be more patient with your attitude. Remember!!! You have Damar and Wulan who are getting older. You should not be careless just because Mala's attitude changes so you ignore Damar and Wulan." said Mr. Aidi who tried to calm his youngest son.
"Come, Dad. Dhana is tired of facing Mala's attitude that is getting day by day, getting louder and petrified. His heart is like death. There was no gentle Mala like before. Then Dhana wants to go up first yes, Yah." replied Dhana who sighed heavily while turning to the father and then moved.
Mr. Aidi could only sigh heavily at his son who was in deep trouble. There is not much that the man of four children can do, not four children, but three children because one of Pak Aidi's children is no longer there. Mr. Aidi can only provide input and support to his son at a time like this.
***
Dhana, who was walking towards the stairs, was about to head to the second floor where her daughter's room was. As she was about to step into Wulan's room, Dhana's steps came to a halt as she passed through her room. His chest was still very tight if he remembered the quarrel earlier this afternoon.
Oh Allah... Open the door of my wife's heart so she will accept Wulan. Poor Wulan. She desperately needed her mother's affection, but why did my wife's heart seem closed and reluctant to open. I wish Mala could go back to what she used to be, O God. Dhana murmured in the heart.
Escape the tears of the handsome twin of the late Dhina because it remembered the princess who had bad luck. His destiny was born as a speechless child and hated by everyone, even his own mother. Dhana quickly wiped her tears and was about to walk to the room of the sister who already belonged to her daughter.
Chequek!
Dhana's steps stopped again when he heard the sound of the door handle from the princess's room open, and Damar came out of the room.
"Room..."
Damar who just came out of the room of the sister turned to the source of the voice. The man who was no less handsome than the papi reviewed a smile and walked closer to Dhana.
"Fire... What's the matter Pi? Papi from anywhere?" ask Damar who berhubi to Dhana.
"Not from anywhere, dear. Papi had just been from the side yard looking for a fresh breeze to calm the mind. What about your sister? What are you doing in her room?" dhana answered while glancing at the princess's room.
"More baths, Pi. When Damar entered his room, Adek just entered the bathroom. It is also over soon." replied Damar, turning to the room.
Dhana just took a long breath. His intention to see Wulan's condition must be undone first because the girl is cleaning herself.
"Oh yeah, Papi almost forgot something. What is your school today? You'll be taking the class exam soon, right?" said Dhana who stood up while putting her hand in her pants pocket.
"Yes, Pi. Next week we will take a class exam. Hopefully Damar can go to class huh, Pi." Damar replied while grating his head that does not itch.
"Papi's children will definitely go up to your original classes studying diligently. Papi will always pray for you. Yes, Papi entered the room first yes." said Dhana while patting the son's shoulder.
"Yes Pi..."
Dhana went to her room. While Damar who saw the anxious strokes on the face of the papi could only sigh long.
Damar's promise, Pi. Damar will try to open Mami's heart so that Mami accepts and loves Adek, like loving Damar as her son. Mumbled Damar in the heart.
Damar moved from his position and walked down the stairs.
"Damar.. Would you like to eat, son?"
Suddenly the soft sound typical of the oma burst into the entire room of the house. Damar turned to the dining room while walking to the oma who was preparing food for dinner later.
"Later on, Oma. Damar is not appetite because he sees Papi and Mami fighting every day. The more Mami's day, the more outrageous. Masa Mami could leave Adek at school alone. Not only was Papi upset but Damar too, Oma." Damar said as he sat at the dinner table and watched Bu Aini.
Hearing the grievance of the grandson, Ms. Aini could only smile knots while shaking her head. Actually, Ms. Aini did not have the heart to see her two grandchildren having to watch the quarrels of their parents every day. But Ms. Aini also could not do much to interfere into the affairs of her son's household.
After finishing the dining table, Ms. Aini walked up to her granddaughter.
"You can be upset, honey. But you must not fight with your mother huh. Oma can only tell, no matter what your mother's attitude is, she remains your mother until anytime. For now we can only pray that one day your mother's heart will be open and she will love Wulan completely." said Bu Aini while gently rubbing Damar's head.
"You don't have to choose, honey. There is nothing to choose and choose here. Your mother just needs time to be able to accept all the harsh realities about your sister's condition. Let time answer everything, dear. Don't think about it too much. You must focus on school and diligently learn." said Ms. Aini while stroking and kissing the head of the grandchild.
Damar let out a long sigh while breaking his embrace and then raised his head to look at the warm oma hugging his body.
"Thank you, Oma. Oma was always there for Damar and Adek at a time like this. Damar loves Oma." said Damar while looking at the oma and hugging her again.
"You look a lot like your papa, son. She also loved her twin sister very much while you were still alive. Oma is very grateful for the loving nature of your papa coming down to Oma's handsome grandson." replied Ms. Aini who returned Damar's close embrace.
"If Damar and Adek are studying together in the room, Papi always comes and often stories about Onty Dhina. Oma's right, Papi loves Onty very much. From the way Papi told the story, Damar and Adek can guess. But it's a pity, Oma. It turns out that God loves Onty more than unfortunately Papi." said Damar who still faithfully embraced the oma possessively.
"Everything your papa told you is true, honey. And Oma wants you and Wulan to be like Papi and your onty, to look after each other, to love each other, to protect each other and to have nothing covered between you. Because openness is the key to successfully establish a relationship, both family relationships and relationships outside the family. Damar understand what Oma means?" said Bu Aini while cupping Damar's face.
"Master of understanding, Oma. Thank you Oma. Thanks to Oma, Damar feels calmer now. Damar promises to keep Adek as Papi keeps Onty Dhina while Onty is alive. Damar promises the same to himself and the same Oma also Papi." replied Damar who increasingly buried his face into the arms of the oma.
"Smart kid!!! Oma loves you, son." said Ms. Aini who warmly kissed Damar's head and hugged him.
Both people have the title of oma and the grandson was washed away in the atmosphere of day at the dining table. Unknowingly the pair of eyes were looking at and watching them from earlier. Tears seemed to fall on her beautiful face when she heard all the words of her brother.
"German..."
The baritone sound from the top of the stairs suddenly shocked the owner of the eye. She was a Wulan who had been standing on the stairs since then and heard all the warm conversation between the oma and her twin mas. Wulan turned his head quickly because he was surprised to hear a baritone voice that belonged to the papi.
"What's up, honey? Why is little girl Papi crying on the stairs like this?" dhana said while embracing the princess's shoulder.
Wulan just shook her head and wiped her tears that had fallen. After wiping his tears, Wulan pointed towards the dining table, where the atmosphere of the very obvious haru occurred between the oma and the twin mas.
Seeing the princess who seemed to want to show something, Dhana also immediately herded her eyes towards the Wulan pointer. A full knot of fragrant smile rose from both corners of her lips looking at the same thing as the princess saw.
"It looks like you're talking to Oma, baby. Let's go over there. Who knows, you are heartbroken and confide in Oma" said Dhana, embracing Wulan's shoulder and walking.
Wulan giggled at the words of the papi who said that Damar was heartbroken, and the girl could only resign as Dhana embraced her shoulder and walked towards the dining table.
"Well, it looks like someone else is confiding in Oma!" the new Sahut Dhana came and immediately teased his son.
Bu Aini and Damar also turned their heads simultaneously towards the source of the voice while breaking a hug.
"Keep what the hell, Pi. Papi don't tease Damar like that huh. Not funny to know!" sumpul Damar while putting on a sullen face.
"Yes don't use the show sulking dong, son. Papi's just kidding, joking time is not allowed. You're PMS again?" dhana said that teased her son again.
"Oh, Papi!!! Do Damar women get all PMS? Omas... Look at Papi. The illness recurred again." Damar replied while pitting spoiled on the oma.
"Already, Dhana! You are already an old man. Don't be so silly as being young. Remember the age, son!" timpal Bu Aini who glanced at the grandson.
Dhana, Wulan and Bu Aini also chuckled amusedly at the expression of Damar who was bent sour after getting a joke from the papi. Moreover, Wulan, the girl seemed to be spinning loosely while shaking her head when she saw the entertainment that was plastered for real in front of her eyes. It felt like the sadness he had felt for a moment had disappeared and all this was thanks to Dhana.
Dhana also smiled bitterly at the laughter of the princess who was so loose without burden. His ignorant way of flirting with Damar managed to make Wulan laugh off like that. Without feeling, his hand was raised and stroked the head of the princess who was still laughing at her twin mas.
Keep laughing, honey. Papi promises not to let the tears of sorrow from your eyes fall again. Because Papi promised your onty that there would be no more tears of sorrow in this house, but only tears of happiness. Dhana murmured in the heart.
