After Parting Five Years

Back together?

Kenzi carried Naufal's body out of the hospital room to his car. Kenzi's face looked gentle and loving. He stroked Naufal's fine hair.

"Say, what gift do you want?" kenzi asked Naufal. The four-year-old looked at Kenzi inside. His smile was slowly drawn.

"Are you really my father?" ask Naufal.

The boy still felt alive in the dream. Because, all this time his mother said his father was dead. But at this moment, the handsome man who was holding himself claimed to be his father.

"You are my son" replied Kenzi slowly.

Secretly, Kenzi has also done DNA testing without Alin's knowledge. And he was also very surprised to find out that his son was suffering from leukemia.

That feeling of regret and guilt hit his heart. Until he had trouble sleeping a few nights.

While behind them, Santi and Alin walked slower. Of course because the couple's mother was talking and did not want to be heard by Naufal or Kenzi.

"So, he knew about Naufal? Wh why? Didn't you say you wouldn't introduce Naufal to his father?" ask Santi.

Alin sighed for a moment before speaking. "Mom, it's actually not a bad thing Kenzi knew Naufal. Perhaps, he could donate his spinal cord to Naufal," Alin explained with a calm face.

"But, what if the big family he knows? They don't like you, Alin. What if they take Nau?" Santi was so anxious that he thought excessively. After all, Alin was removed from Kenzi's life five years ago. It could be, right now they will get rid of Alin again and bring Naufal.

"Mom don't worry. The child's custody is with me. I'll fight for Nau." They spoke to the point of not realizing his footsteps were close to Kenzi's car. Kenzi was already sitting Naufal in front. Alin and his mother sat in the back.

Kenzi drove the car slowly, neither speeding nor too slow.

"Nau, what do you want to eat?" ask Kenzi. His left hand stroked Naufal's pinched cheek.

"Dumpling, Father," answered Naufal softly. His voice shook Kenzi's heart.

This warm feeling, five years ago Alin had felt it.

Before long, the car arrived in front of Alin's simple house. They got out of the car and went into the house. It looks like a complete and harmonious family.

"Dad? Thank you" said Naufal.

The children were so innocent, he was happy when his father was so considerate.

"All right, I've ordered the best dumplings in town. Let's wait a minute, yeah," said Kenzi. The man was sitting on a small sofa in Alin's house.

Santi and Alin enter their rooms.

Kenzi's eyes looked around the room. There are lots of cars and other toys.

"Do you like playing with cars?" ask Kenzi enthusiastically. Naufal nodded with a smile.

"Yes, this is all Om Rafa's giving" replied Naufal.

Kenzi felt his throat choked. He was jealous of that guy named Rafa.

"Other times, if Nau wants a car - the mob says it's the same Dad. Okay?" Naufal nodded in spirit. It's so nice to have a father! the inner child.

From inside the room, Alin peeked at Kenzi's warmth towards his son. Suddenly something melted from the corner of his eye. 'Ah, Lord. Can it be like this next?' please Alin in heart.

***

Kenzi's order dumplings are coming. The family had dinner together. Tonight, Kenzi patiently fed Naufal until the boy's mouth was full.

Alin ate quietly, while Santi was still with an eternity in his heart.

"Mother is done. Mother rest first," said Santi then left Naufal and his parents.

"Dad, can you read me a book tonight?" Naufal's cute face made Kenzi's heart drift away. The man smiled and followed his son into Naufal's room.

He looked at the simple state of Naufal's room.

"This room is too small. Aren't you hot?" ask Kenzi. He didn't see any AC in the room. Naufal nodded in response.

"Dad, comeon! Read me this" Naufal brought me a picture book. He also lay on the bed.

Kenzi put himself on the bed. He read the book straight away. In just five minutes, Naufal's eyes had closed tightly and his breathing was in order. Indicates the boy is already sound in his sleep.

Kenzi came out of Naufal's room, he approached the figure of Alin who was still cleaning their used dinner table.

After Alin finished cleaning the dishes and dirty glasses. Kenzi called out to him slowly.

"I want to talk" Kenzi said, staring at Alin's pretty face.

Honestly, in the eyes of Kenzi Alin always looks very beautiful even if only using home clothes like today.

Alin nodded then made two cups of warm tea to accompany them.

Kenzi and Alin sat on the sofa. Kenzi's eyes accidentally saw a photo of Naufal as a baby. He took a picture and stared at it for a long time.

"Alin, you're so cruel" Kenzi said softly.

Alin nodded in silence.

"Why? Why did you let my son grow up without my affection? Wh why? Why don't you go see me? Why should I know now? Were you on purpose?" asked Kenzi with teary eyes.

Alin's heart felt very depressed. He shook his head slowly.

"You .. do you intend to remarry and let him call another man father?! Then let him forget me? Don't even recognize me?"

Kenzi looked at Alin's face which was now downcast while crying.

"That's all because of you …. You hate me, Kenzi. How am I supposed to bring him to you if you didn't even want to see me then? How's it?" ask Alin. His voice was hoarse from crying.

"How could I hate you?" ask Kenzi furiously.

Alin felt that fate was playing tricks on him. Kenzi hated him so much at the time. But now, he had even forgotten. He forgot that he hated Alin.

"Wallie. I'm going to donate spinal cord to Naufal" Kenzi said. Alin's eyes looked at Kenzi with a bright look.

"Do you know?"

Kenzi nodded, he immediately opened his body examination results.

"The results match 98%. Next week Naufal will have surgery" Kenzi said.

Alin thanked Kenzi. Now the burden in his heart seemed to disappear. He's really happy. Naufal can be cured, Naufal can be cured soon.

"One more thing, Alin. I hope we can get back together. I want Naufal to have both parents intact!"

At this second, Alin's heart seemed to stop for a moment. He couldn't believe what he just heard.

"Back together?”

Can it? But what about Laura? Clearly at the time, Alin heard for himself that Kenzi was going to marry Laura.
