ALINEA LOVE

74

Tok tok!

Someone knocked on Sora's room door.

"Mbak Sora ...," Siti's voice sounded from behind the door.

Sora who was still wearing a face after performing the ashar prayer immediately opened the door of his room.

"Yes, Miss Siti?" ask Sora.

"Mbak, I want to go to the minimarket first yes .., the material for cleaning is going to run out." replied Siti.

"Let me buy it, Miss Siti. A long way to the minimarket. It's still hot like this,"

"What's wrong, Ma'am .. Let me just,"

"Udah, Miss Siti's at home. Let me go."

"But—"

"Bu Siti catetin aja that runs out, I change clothes first," trimmed Sora.

Siti nodded her head, leaving Sora's room and Sora changed.

Because only to the minimarket, Sora only wears plain robe and instant hijab then he went down to meet Siti in the kitchen.

"Have you, Lady Siti?" ask Sora.

"Already, Ma'am." Siti gave a small note to Sora.

Sora took a quick look at the note, "Okay, Miss Siti."

Sora and Siti go to carport , Siti immediately opens the fence and Sora gets into her car.

"I'm leaving first, Mom."

"Be careful, Ma'am."

"Yes, Miss Siti ... Assalamu'alaikum,"

"Ma'alikumsalam ...,"

Sora took out his car and drove it to a nearby minimarket, which was actually a distance from the gate of the housing not up to a kilometer.

Arriving at the minimarket, he immediately looked for any items that Siti had ordered. Not forgetting that he bought snacks for her.

Two baskets of snacks and one basket of orders filled the cashier's desk. One by one the items are recorded through the cashier scanner machine and then into the shopping bag.

The cashier mentioned a nominal amount of Sora's total groceries. Sora took his wallet and took out his debit card. But he remembered something and finally put it back in and took one of Almeer's cards given to him.

"Here, Ma'am." Sora gave the card to the cashier.

Suddenly, someone pulled the waist of his robe as he waited for the officer to process his card.

"Cloe?" The screech was slow, he looked around and there was only Risna there. "Remain here?" ask Sora.

He just remembered if this minimarket was close to the little girl's house.

"Tante—"

"Please PIN it, Ma'am." The cashier's voice slashed Cloe's sentence.

"Just a minute, yeah ...." Sora asks Cloe for permission and turns his eyes to the EDC machine on the cashier's desk. He hit six-digit numbers there.

"You want a cake? Ice cream?" Sora offers something to Cloe while waiting for the cashier to process the payment.

"Nope ...,"

"Trus why?" Sora rubbed the cheeks of the little girl who this time looked even more sad and fondled at him.

"Please. Ma'am."

Again Cloe's desire to speak trimmed the cashier. Sora receives and inserts his debit card into the wallet.

"Thank you, Ma'am." He picked up a plastic bag containing his purchases. "We'll talk outside yuk!" bring Sora.

Cloe nodded, he went out the minimarket with Sora and Risna.

Sora put his groceries first into the car then invited Cloe to sit on the terrace of the empty shophouse next to the minimarket.

"Why? How sad is that? Tumben isn't the same Oma you?" ask Sora.

"Oma's still in order, I'm going to buy some cake" replied Cloe.

"Trus why are you sad gini? Tumben?"

Cloe flicked her lips and continued to stare at Risna who was waiting for her a bit away from him.

"Why the hell? Nih the boy made me curious ...," muttered Sora, "you're sad because Oom Almeer can't bring you?"

"August ...,"

"Huh? What what what what?!" sora replied impatiently.

"I want Oom Almeer ..," said Cloe, her lips cut open and her eyes were already glazed over.

Sora was silent for a moment and looked at the pity of the little girl in front of him.

"I don't want to go to Paris without Oom Almeer ..., I want papa ...,"

Sora immediately hugged Cloe, he could not bear to see Cloe who was fond of him wanted the presence of a papa. This time there were no thoughts in Sora's mind. He only saw the figure of a child who wanted the presence of a father. He had once felt that he was in the position of the little girl in his arms.

"Cloe wanna live with oom Almeer and aunt Sora?" ask Sora. "If Cloe wants, you can stay with us."

Cloe shook her head, she let go of her embrace. "Oom Almeer my papa, he should have stayed with me and my mama. I want my papa ...,"

Sora took a long breath. Honestly, he is not good at talking to children.

"Cloe, Oom Almeer is her husband's aunt Sora .. The papa is the baby in Aunt's stomach." Sora touched her stomach.

"I'm also Oom Almeer's son, oma said that mama—"

"Mister Cloe!" Risna suddenly approached Cloe, "Mak Cloe can't talk to anyone about this," Risna asked Cloe to stand up.

"Mama hidin Cloe from oom Almeer for fear oom Almeer sad. But if—"

"Mister Cloe!" Risna immediately silenced Cloe's mouth.

"What does he mean, Ma'am?" sora asked suspiciously.

"Mbak, we say yes ... Assalamu'alaikum," Risna looks panicked and quickly holds Cloe and leaves.

Sora was still sculpting, he was digesting the sentence that the little girl had spoken.

"No way .. he just misheard from the people around him." Sora patted his chest which suddenly felt tight.

He got into his car and drove back home. Not yet inside his residential gate, he stopped his car.

"I have to make sure of something" he said, turning around to the house where Cloe lived.

Not knowing Cloe's house, Sora asks the security guard.

"Block four, third house on the left, Ma'am." The security guard's hand pointed out the direction of Cloe's house. "Must go through his grandson Mr. Bara, Ma'am."

"Yes, Sir. Thank you, sir."

Sora also returned his vehicle in accordance with the instructions given by the security guard. He found the little girl and her nanny who had just opened the gate of one of the houses.

"Mom!" Sora who just got down from the car immediately called Risna.

Risna looks surprised by Sora's presence. He pulls Cloe's hand to get inside and shut the gate, but Sora is quick to hold the gate.

"I want you to tell me why you didn't let Cloe continue her sentence" Sora asked.

"You know, Ma'am!"

"I can't talk. I'm sorry, Ma'am."

"Mbak, I need—"

"Sora?"

Clara was standing at the door. He looks surprised to see the presence of Sora in his house.

Risna immediately invites Cloe inside to avoid Sora. Sora went to Clara.

"Let's go in first, Sora. Auntie's glad you came here,"

"I want to ask you something about Cloe!" said Sora with his cynical face.

Clara's face turned startled instantly, "about what?" ask Clara.

"Tante must know what my question means,"

Clara dodged Sora's eyes, "i don't know, Sora."

"Who's the papa, Cloe?"

"Why do you want to know that? Doesn't it have anything to do with you?"

"But it has something to do with my husband?"

Clara was silent, she turned her attention back to something other than Sora's eyes.

"Answer, Auntie!" Sentak Sora's.

Clara looked back at Sora, "Come home, Sora. Don't find out anything."

"Aante!" Shouted Sora annoyed, his tears started to melt. Indirectly Clara's answer confirmed his various assumptions.

"Sora .. It's good that you don't know anything."

Sora shook his head, "tell me what Aunty knows" he asked.

Clara shook her head, "no, Sora."

"I beg you, tell me!" pekiknya slow.

"I'm not someone you can trust,"

"I'll decide later,"

Clara silently looked at Sora, her face resolutely asking for the truth but the look in her eyes seemed hesitant to accept the truth.

"Go home, Sora .. You are not good to see me, moreover there is your family in Malang."

"Don't keep stalling! Tell me quickly!" Shouted Sora frustrated.

***

Meanwhile, in another part of Malang city, Sky was driving his car to one of the houses owned by a person he trusted very much.

Sky car stopped in front of a house that is quite unique compared to the houses around it. He went out and went into the house of Aga.

The door of the house was open, Aga was seen already sitting in the living room waiting for his arrival.

"Sorry, I interrupted your trip, Ga." Sky sat on the sofa even though the homeowner had not allowed him to sit down.

Aga nodded indifferently.

"You really suspect Aunt Clara?" ask Sky

"Who else is more suspicious?"

Sky quietly confirmed, "you didn't do this for no reason right? What makes you behave like this?"

"When Sora got lost in Batu, his two car tires flattened the front back. That's not normal, is it?" aga said, "I decided to take Sora's own car and my guess is right, there was a person who deliberately damaged the wind hooks of his car tires."

"I know you must have a good reason, but you can't do it carelessly either, Ga. You can tell Almeer."

"He's too naive, he won't be able to do it" Aga replied.

"Then did you get anything suspicious?"

"Not yet, there's nothing fishy about Aunt Clara."

"Has he really changed?"

Aga just shrugged his shoulders.

"Have you been in touch?"

Aga nodded, "he asked the same thing as you ...,"

Sky turned wide to straighten his body.

"I didn't say anything about Aunt Clara,"

Aga's answer made Sky breathe a sigh of relief instantly.

Sky wanted to ask a question again but stopped when he saw his papa's car stopped behind his car.

"Why is papa here, Ga? You guys gonna meet here?" ask Sky.

"No, we don't have an appointment ...,"

Sky and Aga stood up to welcome the sky. There was something different about the face of Heaven. His expression growled, his eyes coldly harboring anger.

"Why Papa to—"

THE PLAAK!!

One loud slap landed on Sky's cheek until the man almost fell if only Aga did not hold it back.

Sky wanted to protest his papa's actions, but seeing his papa's gaze left him with no guts.

The sky threw a piece of paper that he had been holding onto his son, "YOU CAN LIE TO YOUR PAPA, SKY!!"

The cry of Heaven made Sky's eyes widen, he glanced at Tommy who was standing behind the Sky.

"YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!"
