12. Search

"Pa, where did Mama go? Amara's been tired of traveling all day. Is Amara naughty, Pa? Why did Mama miss Amara? Or, don't you love Amara anymore?" glancing innocently at the boy, he bowed lethargicly with his back rested on the back of the bench. Dark clouds clearly covered her beautiful almond eyes.

Hearing the spate of questions coming out of the innocent boy's mouth, Alvian's heart was slashed with a sharp pain, sore like a wound doused in vinegar water. His lips suddenly became confused, he did not know what to answer.

"Anika, where are you really? Please come back, I need you. Only you can persuade Amara if it's like this. Why did you have to leave us? If you really have a problem, I'm ready to help you, please come back!" inner Alvian was overwhelmed with deep sadness. He feels like he failed to become a father, granting Amara's request he couldn't.

Long silent with the focus still on the steering, Alvian finally pulled his car in front of a park. He needed a lot of air to neutralize the heaviness in his heart, the tightness was increasingly felt raining down on his chest.

If the only way is to marry Anika, she is ready and she wants to take responsibility for the girl. But where should he look for Anika? He didn't even know where the address of that silly girl was.

After pulling the car over, Alvian got off and opened the left door for Amara. Both of them chose to sit on the park bench while looking at the many children who were playing there.

But instead of being entertained, Amara even more sad to see children his age who are playing with their mothers. It made the boy's eyes darken like a black cloud ready to rain.

"If there was a Mama here, Amara would be so happy to be able to play like them. Why is Mama so mean to Amara?" the five-and-a-half-year-old boy said he felt God was unfair to him.

She had already lost the figure of a mother once, now she had to lose again. Tears did not feel Amara suddenly fell soaked his bakpa cheeks.

Again Alvian could only remain silent without answering anything. The more remembered, his heart was increasingly broken unceremoniously. Why did God give this complex trial to her?

Amara was very young when her mother left her, the boy understood nothing. Now, however, everything is like a bomb ready to destroy Amara at any moment. Alvian could not bear this pain alone, she was really not strong at seeing her daughter's grief.

"Honey, we're buying ice cream! There are those who sell old school ice cream, it must taste good." persuaded Alvian, he pointed to a father who was in the middle of a base in front of the park.

"No, Amara just needs Mama." the boy shakes his head, he doesn't taste eskrim, he just wants Anika back to his side.

Hearing that, Alvian squinted the goods eyes for a moment. He sighed heavily then threw it away violently. Somehow it was to persuade Amara not to think of Anika again.

"Yes, then we go home. Amara rest at home first, let Papa find Mama. It's dark in a moment, Amara hasn't had a bath and eaten, has she? Amara can't be sick let Mama get back to us quickly." Alvian again.

"Yes Pa, but I promise you, Papa has to take Mama back to our house!" amara Anguk.

"Dear, Papa promised." said Alvian, then carried Amara and took her into the car.

Half an hour later, Alvian's car arrived in front of his residence. After parking the car, she carried Amara into the house.

"You guys are home? Loh, where's Anika?" tanya Ratih welcomes the arrival of the two, he seems confused because he did not see Anika with them.

"Later I will tell you. Please bathe Amara first, the abis eats and sleeps. I also want to take a shower for a while" replied Alvian.

After Amara moved to Ratih's sling, Alvian immediately walked into the room.

It felt as if the world had stopped spinning for Alvian. Not only is she stuck at Amara's request to have a mother, she also feels trapped in feelings she herself doesn't know what. He felt something was missing from him when he did not see the installment girl.

"Just wait, if I find you, I'll tie you up so strong that there's no chance of getting away from me. I'll make you regret that you've dared to play games with me." Inward Alvian while soaking her body in the bathtub, she squinted for a moment remembering the turmoil Anika left for her.

Half an hour passed, Alvian came out of the bathroom with a body that was fresher than before. After wearing neat clothes, he came out and joined Amara and Ratih who were busy eating their food.

"Why look for Mama?" asked Amara while looking at the neat papa, the aura of good looks radiates with a dress shirt and jeans attached to his body.

"Yes, Papa will go find Mama. Amara ate a lot of yes, after that brush your teeth and go to sleep. Anyway Amara should not be sad, Papa promises to bring Mama home as soon as possible." said Alvian with full confidence. He believed that he could definitely find the crazy girl.

After filling his stomach, Alvian kissed Amara's forehead and cheeks alternately and then left the house. He will begin the search for the hotel he has been to before. Although Anika no longer worked there, Alvian was sure there were traces she could make of the place.

After a journey of about forty minutes, Alvian arrived at the hotel parking lot. He immediately got down and walked towards the reception desk.

"Excuse me, sorry to interrupt the time for a second. I want to ask the address of the hotel employee named Anika." asked Alvian directly to the point.

"Sorry, who are you?" ask the receptionist.

"I'm Alvian, I'm her future husband" said the father of one child lightly.

"Oh, but sorry... Personal data of employees and visitors is privacy, we cannot give it to just anyone. Anyway Anika doesn't work here anymore, we don't have any rights"

"Then please call Robert, I know he's the owner of this hotel. He's my best friend, it's just that we haven't been in communication for a long time." Alvian said.

"But Mr. Robert was not there" replied the receptionist.

"It doesn't matter, I just want to talk to him. If he allows, then you should give Anika's address to me." Alvian asserted in serious fashion.

"Alright," the receptionist nodded, inevitably contacting Robert at Alvian's request.

After the call was connected, Alvian snatched the phone rudely, his patience slightly tested for being lazy to deal with the woman.

Long chatting with Robert, Alvian returned the phone to the hand of the woman who was still standing across the table.

"Well sir, yes, fine." the woman nodded and hung up.

With a slightly pale face, the woman immediately searched the data on behalf of Anika and wrote her address on a piece of paper. "This is sir, sorry for the inconvenience" the woman said as she thrust the paper into Alvian's hands.

"It's okay, I get it. Then thank you,"

After thanking her and taking over the paper, Alvian immediately turned around and left the hotel. He entered the car and began a search to the address written on the paper.
