"The road is slow"
Abra walked several times pulling Zahra's hand asking the woman not to rush but Zahra still Zahra, she brushed off Abra's hand and came back running small.
All who were sitting in the living room stood looking at the two of them, Zahra walked quickly towards them and Abra who was chasing after him behind.
"They were fighting" Malvin looked at Abra with a sigh.
"Zahra looks like a maunpergi" said Sam.
"Hopefully Abra followed the way I locked Hanna in the room"
The last one is Enzo, who manages to catch the attention of Regan and Aslan, even Sam and Malvin who already know staring at Enzo.
"All for the sake of having our loved ones why not" Enzo continued casually.
Zahra stopped her steps in front of Regan and Aslan, looking at them with a face full of anger.
Regan who got the gaze glanced in a direction, Zahra had been unable to be bothered since then, and Regan did not know what Abra was doing so Zahra seemed to be unable to hold back her emotions.
"You know that your father has been a mobster since when?" asked Zahra in a low tone.
"From the beginning we got here" replied Aslan.
"Why not tell Mommy?"
"Because Mommy didn't ask" Regan said before Aslan said.
Zahra clucked at Regan sharply, "did Mommy want to ask how?, would you ask if your father is a mafia?. You don't know Ar, Ar should be the one to tell Mommy."
"Keep if Mother knows what Mother wants to do?"
"You won't be going to college in this country"
Hearing Zahra's words so earnestly made Regan look back at Zahra's eyes directly.
"No, even though Dad used to be a mobster or now he is still a mafia, Ar will still go to college here" Regan denied. "Since the dream of Mother wants Ar to study abroad, the university that Ar very much dreamed of is the university where As is now studying."
Zahra's eyes glazed over, "does Ar not pity the same Mother who always worried about the condition of Ar and As here?" zahra's voice began to hoarsely resist the cries.
"Ar and As will be fine at Mother's side"
Zahra's tears finally flowed, Regan who saw him felt guilty, this was the first time Regan had a long argument with Zahra until Zahra cried.
Regan's hand was about to pull Zahra in his arms but Zahra brushed it off. Abra too, Zahra brushed Abra's hand off.
"The same Father is the same, all are taken lightly, calm Mother can not calm down" cried Zahra. "The mother who gave birth and raised you half-dead, As who always accompanied Mother when pregnant with you when Mother was sad. Even when Mother is kidnapped, what Mother thinks is only Mother's children, how about Mother dies the fate of Mother's children how. WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THE FEELINGS OF A MOTHER."
Zahra screamed before her cries broke, Aslan pulled Zahra in her arms, stroking Zahra's bronze pangs to calm down.
Regan looked at Zahra who let Aslan hug her making Regan moody. Regan feels guilty, but Zahra also has to understand him.
"As, Ar, our fathers all understand and understand Mother's worries" Aslan said slowly. "But children also need challenging experiences to be able to face our world, we as children want to see Mother and Father proud of us because we are able to achieve our success with our own hands. Even though Dad's a mobster, how else?, Ar will still be Dad's son. We as children have to live what has become destiny or even karma from our parents. We as children cannot choose to be born into whom."
Aslan Stretched his embrace, Zahra looked up at Aslan who was smiling in line. "Even if if As was given the choice As would not want to be a child who is not clear who is the Mother and the biological father of As."
Zahra's cries stopped, she shook her head and cupped Aslan's cheeks.
Aslan smiled, holding Zahra's hand that touched her cheek tightly. "On the contrary, Ar will certainly not want to be born as the son of a businessman who requires him to inevitably have to be a businessman, because Mother knows herself not, but, ar's dream is to be a doctor since childhood." Aslan said it with a smile at the end of his sentence.
"But Mother is worried" said Zaahra so softly.
"This is the path that Ar must walk, what Mother is worried about, two children of this Mother a national karate athlete two years in a row. If we focus on karate maybe we'll become international athletes."
As Aslan prided herself and Regan on Zahra, Abra's eyes immediately glanced at Enzo who was smiling broadly at her.
"They'll be fine here, there's Javir and Enzo looking after them" Malvin said.
Zahra turned to Enzo who was smilingly nodding his head.
Feeling that Zahra had calmed down, Regan stepped closer to Zahra. "Udahan hugged As" he said softly, "Mother does not want to be touched by Ar but instead embraced As."
Zahra looked at Regan deeply, not distancing herself from Aslan, letting Regan arrange it with a hearty look.
"Sorry" great-granddaughter Regan, "sorry Ar rebutting Mother."
In the end Zahra still could not be angry for long at Regan, she stretched out her arms and Regan immediately hugged Zahra tightly.
"I'm sorry, Ar just wants you to understand Ar."
Zahra could not say anything, she simply returned the embrace of Regan who hugged her tightly.
Abra smiles relieved to be done without any drama Zahra will run away or ask her for a divorce. Abra stood behind Regan waiting for her turn to hug.
Zahra's eyes immediately squinted, taking off her embrace from Regan. Abra, who saw him, was about to step his foot but put his intentions aside when he heard Zahra's words.
"Let's go home"
Zahra grabbed Regan and Aslan's arms and walked away.
Abra was stunned by the silence he took staring at those who began to walk away stabbed Javir and Alaric behind him.
After making sure Zahra was really gone, Sam laughed looking down at Abra. Although Zahra did not ask for a divorce, it seemed like Abra would feel what she was feeling.
*-*
Bilqis suddenly woke up but did not cry, he just opened his eyes and lay on his stomach despite the difficulties.
Gea who felt there was a movement to divert his attention from his phone, saw Bilqis could lie on his stomach until Gea was excited even if Chaka was still sleeping.
"Bi on his stomach, Mbak Fani!" scream Gea jiggiranga.
Chaka woke up and cried.
"Bak Fan cry it all!" scream Gea confused.
Fani and Vira who were in the kitchen immediately stopped eating them and ran towards the twins.
Gea who was confused immediately laughed making Fani and Vira look strangely at him.
"Ah .. despite being tense it was still able to laugh happily" exclaimed Gea.
Clamps ...
The door opened, it turned out that Zahra and the children came.
Zahra saw Bilqis and Chaka who had not slept so a smile came to them, Test Bilqis with a kiss until Bilqis amused and laughed. Zahra took Chaka from Vira's arms and kissed her too, not cradling them all day long.
"Thank you for looking after the twins" Zahra said, staring at Gea, Fani and Vira alternately. "Tonight you can rest so that I can take them, can you please bring Bilqis to the room?."
"Let Ar's fat, Fani's mom can rest" Regan takes Bilqis from Fani's sling.
Regan follows Zahra from behind. When Zahra put Chaka on the bed Regan also put Bilqis next to her.
Seeing Regan watching the twins, Zahra chooses to change clothes.
Regan herself touched their stomachs and toyed with her cheeks. Soon they'll be home, so Regan will be parting ways again with the twins.
"When Mother gave birth they are difficult?" regan asked without looking at Zahra who had just sat next to him.
Zahra shook her head, "Mother felt calm at that time, during their pregnancy Mother felt relaxed and happy. Different when Mother was pregnant and gave birth to Ar" Zahra turned to Regan. "Mother feels sad and alone at that time even though there is As who always comes home to visit Mother, but at night and Mother cries you move as if you know what Mother feels. Mother feels only Ar who understands Mother, earlier when we argue Mother had felt disappointed because Ar no longer understands Mother."
"Not Bun" Regan's voice turned clear.
Zahra's hand held Regan's hand with both hands. "But after As tried to persuade Mommy, slowly Mommy realized. Ar does not mean to refute Mother does not it?, but Ar wants Mother to believe all the big decisions that Ar chooses. Ok Mother knows but ..." Zahra let out a heavy sigh, "whatever happens, as hard and as big as anything Ar faces, tell Mother. Mother will relax and sacrifice anything for the child Mother, Ar know how Mother?, you are more valuable than Mother's life."
"I know" said Regan with teary eyes.
"A Dad also felt that feeling Ara"
Whether Abra had been in the room since when, they approached the two of them sitting next to Regan and ruffled Regan's hair.
"Sleep it's night" Abra said.
Regan hugged Zahra, "good night."
"Good night" Zahra kisses Regan's cheek.
"Just hug this once for tonight" Regan said, hugging Abra for a bit and then leaving.
Abra laughs at her, although their relationship has improved but the boy still feels awkward with her.
The twins sleep in the middle of their mattress, Abra turns to Zahra who is ready to sleep.
"our mattress makes a wall yes Ara, let me sleep can hug you" said Abra Lirih.
"Please understand I'm upset with you" Zahra said with judes.
Abra clucked, got off the bed, took a nightstand beside the bed that was close to the wall. Then push the mattress with all your strength.
"Abra!" pekik Zahra hugged the twins because the mattress suddenly moved.
Finished patting the mattress against the wall, Abra opened the shirt, got into the blanket and hugged Zahra from behind.
"The anger continues tomorrow Ara."
*-*
Zahra stared at the wall clock that already showed at one in the morning, she still could not sleep because of many thoughts, her head even felt dizzy.
Slowly Zahra broke away from Abra's embrace, drawing up a pillow under the twins' feet before she finally descended and slowly walked out of the room. For the last time he wants to make sure that all his decisions in favor of Aslan and Regan stay in this country are right.
Zahra's feet continued to step up each rung, faintly sounding Aslan's voice and Regan made Zahra speed up her steps.
Regan's bedroom door was not closed so Zahra could see Regan reading a book and Aslan was cleaning the camera lenses Abra had bought.
"Can you be clear about this?" Regan approached Aslan who was sitting in a mattress.
"I have a recording of the professor, read the book I also do not understand" Aslan said.
"Again what?" asked Zahra to walk in.
Aslan immediately cleaned the lens of his camera scattered and placed it on the nightstand so that Zahra could sit on the sidewalk with them.
"Ar read a book about the business majors taken by As, if alone As again cleanin Bun camera lens" replied Aslan.
Regan closes the book, "Mother why haven't you slept" asked Regan.
Zahra shook her head, "unable to sleep" Zahra replied softly staring at them one by one. "Every night you work like now?."
"No" replied Regan, "when we were active in college we were busy with their respective majors, during the holidays Ar learned what Aslan learned for a semester, if As he was busy in the studio mr. Robert."
"Aren't you tired?"
Aslan chuckled while Regan shook her head.
"No, we're happy. As though college is not a major that As interested but there is a time where As can wrestle hobbies and pession As" Aslan said with a big smile.
Regan is like that, she smiles a lot. "That's the opposite, but we've enjoyed it all this time. Here the people are smart and Ar is challenged."
Knowing when his son is happy Zahra must resign, right?, all for their happiness.
"What else is bothering you?" asked Aslan grabbing Zahra's hand and grasping it.
Zahra looked down at Aslan's hand, grabbed Regan's hand and looked at the two hands she held. "Mother wants to take you away."
In front of Regan's room behind the wall, Abra's hands clenched to hear her. Does Zahra not understand what he said?, go back to leave?.
"Hearing Dad's past, Mommy feels scared, but if you are calm and happy Mommy can what?."
