The Tears of Ayanda
chapter 23. Inauguration of Branch Store 9

Two weeks later, Gio never saw Ayanda again. He realized that the taste he had been craving for Ayanda was wrong. Let him love and love Ayanda in silence, the most important thing is that Ayanda is happy. Two weeks ago, she found out about Ayanda and her husband, and what she found was that Ayanda was very happy with her. It was time for Gio to step back slowly, burying his feelings deep within.

The phone rings.

Gio: Yes father,,

Father: How was it there.

Gio: Okay, no problem at all,

Father: Good job, son.

Gio: Dad, because it's okay to let GI go back to ausi?

Father: What's wrong with you? Didn't you get excited yesterday? Why now sounds so desperate, did you not meet Ayanda?

Gio: I've met him, he's happy. Lirih.

Father: How is your daughter?

Gio: He is very good and very happy,

Father : Seriously? I'm glad to hear that.

Gio: But my heart is tight Well, if you let me be with him I will make him happy.

Father : Hahahaha, kasian Ayanda came out of the crocodile cage into the lion's den if he was with you.

Gio: Ck, I love him Dad.

Father: But he does not love you. I just want my daughter to be happy with her choices.

Gio: Daddy, whining.

Father: No objection, now you stay there until you tell you to go home.

Gio: All right.

As hard as he whined to the father, his father's decision was final can not be contested anymore.

Phone contact was also cut.

Today is the inauguration day of the 9th Branch Shop. Ayanda and Rion are ready to go to the event because they are the stars. Rion and Ayanda were wearing matching clothes that were very suitable for both. Many people think that Rion and Ayanda are newlyweds, even though they already have a 13-year-old girl. Because the handsome face of Rion and the baby face that is not seen aging even a little, and also Ayanda who is a tiny beautiful and sweet. Many people think they are 20 years old. A very compatible couple. They are also accompanied by their assistants, Arya and Sita who wear matching clothes to look like a couple

The inauguration of Branch 9 Shop went smoothly. From the welcome, ribbon cutting, thanksgiving, and now it's time for a meal.

Various dishes are there with many portions. Their colleagues really enjoyed their lunch. Until one of his colleagues had to rush back to the office. Rion and Ayanda drive him to be in front of Yoko. His colleague said goodbye after his car was in front of the store.

"Thank you Mr. Rion" he said, shaking Rion's hand.

"Thank you, Ms. Ayanda, it's a pleasure to do business with you guys" a colleague said.

He left after his car was in front of the store.

"Let's go in," Rion asked.

"Beautiful aunt" came the voice of the boy calling. Rion and Ayanda turned their heads towards the origin of the voice. A boy in a huddle who waved his hand with a sweet smile.

Ayanda smiled, she recognized the boy. It was Raska. After his meeting that time, he never saw Raska again. Today he is reunited with Raska but with Raska who looks weak. Raska approached Ayanda and Rion.

"Tante," he said and immediately rushed to embrace Ayanda, "i miss Auntie" he said while hugging Ayanda.

"Tante also miss you Raska," Ayanda replied. Rion who saw the scene chose to go inside.

"Honey me to the inside yes," said Rion, answered with a nod and a smile.

"Are you sick, Raska?" tanyanya rubbed her cheek gently.

A sweet smile rose from her lips. "i'm fine Auntie" she replied.

"Seriously?" ask again, and only answered with a nod of the head.

"Is this Aunt's shop too?"

"Yes, why are you here?" tanyanya.

"My house is around here Auntie."

"Who was that guy? Aunt Husband?" ask Raska.

"Yes Raska, why is it?"

Raska walked towards the chair in front of the Shop and sat down the body that Ayanda followed. He shields both his chin.

"I want to have a father like that" he said.

"Om it's a pity Auntie, try if Raska has a father maybe Mom will be happy just like Auntie," he explained, and there was a scratch of sadness on her face.

"Where can you tell your dad?" ayanda asked with Raska's hand. Replied with a headband and made Ayanda even more confused.

"I was raised by my grandmother, because my mother did not want to take care of me, because my grandmother was sick I was finally brought here by Mom. I don't know where my father was, from childhood I never saw my father. Mom always said the bad dad left mom when I was in the womb and you had to fight for yourself to raise me, even though mom always said I was an unwanted child but I'm sure you love me" she said. Ayanda immediately hugged Raska's thin body.

"That's a shame, son" he said. Hearing Raska's story reminds him of the little Echa, whom his father left behind. When the memory of his father is limited and also thirsts for the affection of a father. Little Echa wants to have a father like her friends. In the end he called Gio "Papa" and was warmly welcomed by Gio. Now that Echa was happy, her father came back next to her and loved her very much.

Arya saw from the glass window, Ayanda was hugging a small child in the front waiting chair of the store, she approached Rion.

"Who is that boy?" ask him to Rion.

"I don't know," he answered briefly, still busy with his chosen object.

"Mother boss seems very fond of the boy."

"Look, mother's instinct. Then Echa already big do not want to be embraced kayak that," he explained while pointing towards Ayanda who was hugging Raska.

"Why don't you just print it again?"

"Lu guessed the invitation printing," he said, hitting Arya on the head with his cellphone.

"Yes you're both young. What's wrong with adding another child, let the boss be at home because he has a toy."

"After Ayanda and the cave returned five years ago, the cave and Yanda mutusin did not want to have any more children. Simply focus on taking care of Echa and giving full affection to Echa, because his childhood was less affection especially from the cave," he said a little sad.

"Have your father kayak mah kayak guts test, if not strong enough to wave hands on the camera "

"Damn you, 'emang cave uka-uka." he replied. Welcomed with Aryan rarity.

"Alaska!" call a woman. Raska turned to the origin of the voice.

"Mother" he said slowly. Ayanda who was looking at him was surprised.

"You?" sergeant Ayanda. Dinda was surprised to see Ayanda hugging Raska.

"Go home!!" take her and pull Raska's hand hard.

"Hey, can you slow down? He's your son!!" shout Ayanda.

"No need to take care of my business, you lady jal*ng," he told Ayanda.

Hearing that word Ayanda's hand was raised and unceremoniously slapped on Dinda's face.

"That woman should be called jal*ng is you" cried Ayanda again.

The commotion of the two women was not inevitable, hearing the commotion outside Rion and Arya rushing out. To their surprise, Dinda was in front of their eyes right now and was having an argument with Ayanda.

"Darling," called Rion and stopped the two women's quarrel before him. Rion immediately hugged Ayanda's body because he saw her already very messed up face.

"You're okay, right?" ask Rion, who is still holding Ayanda's body. Answer with a head. Rion immediately kissed the tip of his head.

Seeing their affection Dinda was getting furious, he should be treated like it was not Ayanda.
