The Man in the Dream
38.Caliph

The couple looked down in fear, their two children were just like their parents. Broto looked at his daughter-in-law with emotion, in Asih's brain still trying to find sweet words to calm the heart of this old man who was in front of him.

"You two, get into each other's rooms!" broto orders with his heavy voice.

The two Asih and Surya children rushed into the room. Eve gripped felt in the room, even though the room was quite spacious but could make the couple become short of breath.

"Tell me honestly, have you told anyone to kill my granddaughter?" broto asked with a flame in both of those old eyes.

Surya still looks ordinary, the man can not admit his evil deeds, "Father do not slander me, some days I am busy with my work." said Surya.

"Mas Surya was right sir, since I went to work Surya from home." Asih chimed in for his father to believe.

Through a glance, Broto orders Lutfhi to release some evidence. Surya's eyes widened, whereabouts in the hotel owned by Alan caught cctv.

"The two of you are two ungrateful humans" Broto said raising his voice. "Especially you're Asih! Liana was wrong to have raised you to be her younger sister. You can manipulate my son's death just to gain control of my treasure. Where is your gratitude Asih....?" the old voice echoed throughout the room. The maids began to busy eavesdrop on her employer's problems.

"Sih didn't do it sir!" the woman's exclamation made Broto more emotional.

"Have you forgotten your background? You're just a street kid who was picked up by my son and then I made you a child even I consider you my own real son. You and your husband can make my granddaughter an orphan while your two children live happily in abundance of affection." Broto began to take out his heart.

Surya and Asih did not say, even to just raise their heads they did not dare.

"You both have to account for your past and present. You must be punished!" the word Broto makes Surya and Asih immediately bent their knees begging not to be in prison.

"Excuse Asih sir, Asih khilaf." he said so easily.

But Broto who had lost patience did not want to accept their apologies. For years her self was lied to by the death of her own child.

The two children Surya and Asih who eavesdropped if his parents would be in prison immediately ran outside and kneeled. "Grandfather, don't jail mamah and papah. We'll how will it be?" the eldest named Winanti pleaded with tears but still Broto did not care about it anymore.

"Mama and papah are only kahilaf kek, forgive them." the youngest named Windari also defended.

"You've been living a good and happy life for a long time, but Shenaa's biological grandchildren have been made to suffer by your ignorant parents" Broto said.

Winanti and Windari actually know if they are not the grandchildren of Broto because Asih had told his past to his two children. No wonder the two Asih children are not surprised when Broto says that Shenaa is his biological grandson.

Looking at his two other grandchildren pleading, Broto's heart long ago melted as well. The old man will not send Surya and Asih to prison but drive them away without bringing any small treasure.

Asih's initial opposition, do not accept if Broto expels her even crossed off the names of all her children from the list of heirs. But, Broto who was already angry could only expel one family who did not know themselves.

"We're gonna be shitty....!" Hysterical not accepted. During this time the woman always enjoyed the wealth and facilities provided by Broto.

"Trus we're gonna live where mah pah is?" A tired Winanti begins to get upset with her parents.

"The father will contact someone who can help us. In any case, we should get back to our seat in that house" said Surya still with his ambitions.

"You should finish that damn kid off! his presence has brought havoc to our family." Shame on Shenaa. For years she and her husband kept a secret about Liana's death and her husband also manipulated Shenaa's death in the end.
