"Mom? Zia what are you doing? Why do I keep thinking about Zia?" tanya Nala expressed her unease.
Bu Laras who will spoon the last mouthful, his movements suddenly stopped. Likewise with Zio who is currently his attention is immediately focused on the Mommy.
"Zio misses Zia too, Mom. Miss Daddy too," Zio whined inwardly cheering as her mother gave her an easy way to unite her with her father.
"Zio wants to meet Zia and Daddy. Zio wanted to live in a house where there was Oma laras, Oma Nilam, and Opa Prabu. Why don't we just stay together anyway, Mom," whined Zio again.
His face was already bent with cute pursed lips. Ms. Laras who heard that, cleared her throat slowly to wet a suddenly dry throat.
Ahem.
"Where can it be like that? That is unlikely to happen, dear," replied Bu Laras gently as she stroked the top of the grandchild's head who was currently sitting on the chair next to her.
"Why can't it?" tanya Zio was not satisfied with her Oma answer.
Bu Laras let out a long breath. "It's okay. Forget it," he replied then continued eating.
Nala fell silent. She certainly knew that her mother would not allow Nala to easily visit her former in-laws' house. However, it was soon answered when his mother returned to voice.
"Go, La. Follow Zia to Jakarta. It knows what it's like to miss the child but cannot meet because it is separated by island and sea" said Bu Laras who sounded like a satire for Nala.
Nala poked her lips in annoyance. "Mom is insinuating me?" tanyanya.
Bu Laras chuckled crisply. "No. But, if you feel insinuated, yes. It's not the mother's fault" replied Ms. Laras then immediately raised the glass filled with water and gulped it down.
Nala just snorted softly and then drank her white milk. "Thus ... Me and Zio are allowed to pick up Zia?" tanya Nala made sure.
Bu Laras glanced to the point that his eyeballs were about to come out and roll. Zio and Nala laughed out loud seeing that.
"Oma is so funny if her expression is like that. That's why Mommy and I laughed," said Zio.
Bu Laras sighed and then shook his head. "You can go. But remember, just to pick up Zia. I don't want any more drama, "bu Laras' ultimatum that Nala soon takes.
At exactly nine in the morning, Nala and Zio finally left for Jakarta by passing the toll road. There was a driver who accompanied their trip.
For office matters, Nala entrusted it to Yuna and Rani. Lucky lately the job call is fairly light. So, Nala did not have to step on the field.
About an hour and a half, the car that the child and the mother were driving reached in front of Reigha's parents' house.
Nala mustered up the courage first before actually getting out of the car.
"This is the address, ma'am?" ask the driver to make sure because Nala does not come down.
"Mom. We've arrived, haven't we?" Now it was Zio's turn to ask. Nala nodded in confirming.
"Yes. Come on, let's go down now," Nala asked in the end. Ready or unprepared, Nala must go down and fight the nervousness that is immediately present.
"There's Zio, Mom. Mommy doesn't need to be nervous like she's about to meet a lover," Zio's tease that makes Nala widen her eyes in disbelief.
"Zio knows where lovers' words come from?" tanya Nala was full of search.
Zio shook his head then shone his horse. "Forget, Mom. That's where Daddy is looking at Mommy" said Zio who immediately made Nala realize if he was not in his territory. Wkwk.
Nala followed Zio's direction and saw Reigha's figure now smiling towards ... Who yeah? Either Zio or himself.
"You've finally come, too" said Reigha smiling happily. Nala only replied with a faint smile.
Zio now hugged his father while Nala, he was suddenly awkward with the situation created.
Busy with her own thoughts, Nala was bearded when her name was called from the direction of the entrance.
"Nala?" said Nilam ma'am smiling widely.
Nala looked over and smiled softly. "How are you ... Auntie," Nala said for the first time.
Ms. Nilam immediately rushed into Nala's embrace. "Good Mom news. Keep calling me Mama. I'm happy when you call him that. And vice versa, I don't like being called aunty by you. I think the call was very bad" said Miss Nilam at length.
Nala smiled with teary eyes. Then, his hand moved to return the embrace that Nala had not felt for a long time.
Honestly, Nala misses this hug.
"Oma! Doesn't Oma miss me?" asked Zio in a slightly raised tone.
Ms. Nilam took off her embrace and looked down where her grandson had now pursed his lips.
"Ouch! Oma forgot that Zia had a twin, "the Nilam bu's tease that made Zio even more upset.
"Oma evil!" zio grumbled then folded his hands in front of his chest. All chuckled amusedly at the sight of Zio who was in sulking mode.
Finally, Nilam took Zio into his carrier. "Don't be angry anymore. Oma was just joking," said Nilam soothing and then peeked on both sides of Zio's cheeks.
"Come, let's go in first. Don't just stand here," take Nilam's mom with a hand that doesn't hold Zio, used to hold Nala's arm.
Reigha smiled happily and followed from behind. Reigha could see Nala's back walking away. Reigha noticed, Nala's hair was now elongated. His pure white arms drove Reigha crazy.
Finally, Reigha could only let out a rough breath and shook his head as the shadow wanted to hug Nala from behind approached. His head does need to be hit so as not to be rude.
"I love you, Nala," muttered Reigha who unfortunately could still hear.
Nala instantly stopped her steps and turned to look at Reigha. "Are you mumbling something, Mom? I didn't listen too much" asked Nala with a frown.
Reigha shakes his head. "No. I didn't say anything" Reigha replied lying.
