"Surprise.." Said someone who made Arvin's body tremble. His body was limp and could barely even balance when he saw who the person who came to the house was.
"Who, Pi?" Melisa asked who had just come out from the kitchen direction with an apron still covering her front body. The woman was seen rounding her eyes when she saw who came to the house this early in the morning. The reaction of the couple was the same, both equally surprised.
"Hallo, Papa's son-in-law.." His greeting while smiling, he waved his hand when he saw Melisa's arrival from the direction of the kitchen.
"Pope.." Melisa immediately rushed into the arms of the father-in-law. Yeah, it's Darren. He came home, after a year he had to be in the country of the people because he needed treatment after the accident. He was also in a coma for quite a while and he was finally able to get up and stand here now.
"How are you, baby?" Darren asked as he rubbed his daughter-in-law's back gently.
"Lisa's fine, what about Papa?" Turning Melisa asked as she looked up at Darren's face, a face she hadn't seen for a long time, this made her heart ache but happy. Darren's body was still as tall and sturdy as it used to be, although it was now a bit thin.
"Papa's good, baby. Where's Papa's son-in-law's granddaughter?" Ask Darren.
"There's inside, Pa. Come on in, who's Papa here?"
"Sam Selin, they again to the minimarket, he said there is something to buy." Answer Darren.
"You why dumbass? You don't like Papa coming home, son?" Darren asked when he saw Arvin was silent. It was just that his gaze implied there was his pain that he felt when looking at the figure of the father.
"Pope.."
"Yes, it's Papa, son." Darren replied with a smile.
"Come here, you don't want to hug this papa of yours? You don't miss me?" Asked Darren again as he spread out his two hands, he was already preparing to receive a hug from the son.
Arvino walked slowly and hugged the father's body tightly, he cried there. Really, it feels so moving. Finally after a year, he could look back at the smiling father like this. There was not a pale, scarred face like he had seen in America.
"Papa, I'm sorry Arvin.."
"Papa has forgiven you, son. You are Papa's son." Lirih Darren while rubbing the top of Arvino's head gently.
"I'm sorry if all this time, Arvin always made Papa sesel. Sorry if.."
"Papa has forgiven all your mistakes, however you are the only child of Papa. Papa's done it all, son. So, no need for anything to be forgiven anymore." Darren replied with a smile.
"It's good to see that smile again, Pa."
"Where's the daughter-in-law's granddaughter?" Darren asked, he asked Ayunda where she was.
"Let's go in, Pa." Take Arvino. Darren nodded and then stepped into the house that has a million memories in it.
Darren circulated his views to all corners of the house nuanced all white. This mansion is very large and spacious, the room and items are neatly arranged, not changed at all even though it has been one year he did not go home, but everything is still the same even the atmosphere as well.
His heart felt happy, after a long time he left, until finally he could return home that has a lot of memories.
"It's good to be back in this house.." Darren murmured softly, making Arvin smile small.
"It's all the same, isn't it, Pa?"
"Yes, everything is still the same. The house still feels as warm as it used to be." Answer Darren again.
"But this is the coffee." Say Ayunda while carrying a cup filled with black coffee.
"Darling, is that you?" Darren asked, making Ayunda who was putting coffee on the table look up and see who called her. She had not noticed Darren in this room. He was too busy with what he was doing, not realizing that someone was waiting for him with a sweet smile. She misses the girl who is now a woman.
"W-grandpa?"
"Yes, it's grandpa, baby." Darren replied with a smile.
Ayunda smiled then walked quickly and hugged Darren tightly, she shed her longing for this one year by hugging the body tightly.
"How are you, baby?" Darren asked as he rubbed Ayunda's pretty face gently.
"Father is fine, it even feels much better now. Especially after seeing that Grandpa is fine."
"Where's your husband?"
"Still in the room, Cake. It was the weekend when he woke up a little afternoon." Answer Ayunda.
"Hmm, his habits haven't changed at all. The boy's still a sleepyhead, where's the kebo when he's asleep, it's hard to wake up."
"Do you need Ayu to wake up Mas Naren, Kek?"
"No need, baby. Just let him rest." Darren replied with a smile. Darren was sitting on the sofa in the living room, until the sound of the door being closed made his attention distracted. Darren saw a foreign figure who had just come out from the direction of the room that he knew it was a guest room.
"Who is he?" Darren asked as he pointed at Adam who had just come out in his modest attire.
"He's Adam, Ayunda's uncle. Now he lives here with us, too, Pa." Arvino clearly smiled.
"Ohh, hello welcome. I'm Darren, Arvin's father."
"S-Greetings know, sir."
"Master? Isn't it wrong that you called me, sir? We're family, why are you calling me like I'm a superior and you're a subordinate?" Darren's question made Adam speechless.
"I'm confused what to call you.."
"Darren, just call me a name. Like us, we're the same age." Darren replied with a smile.
"Aaahh yes, Darren."
"Come and sit here." Darren said with a smile. Adam nodded and sat down on the empty sofa facing them.
"You don't mind me staying here with you?" Ask Adam lirih.
"Doubt? No, I built this house. But the house is very spacious, with many empty rooms as well. Besides, if you stay here you'll be closer to Ayunda, you're the only family she has, right?"
"Yes, Darren."
"Therefore, if Arvin or Naren asks you to stay here, believe me he has considered it and I agree you stay here. I'm glad your uncle lives here?" Darren asked, making Ayunda nod her head quickly to his grandfather's question.
"Very, Cake. I'm so happy if Uncle stays here, that way I'll feel closer to Uncle."
"Have you heard yourself that Ayunda is very happy with your presence here?"
"I just don't want to bother you all let alone charge because I live here. I was going to stay here for a while until I get paid." Adam Obviously.
"You want to contract? Don't bodooh, it's still big, Adam. You stay here with us. Your salary money, save it for your wife's children in the village." Darren. She has no idea what really happened to Adam and his family.
"My daughter's dead, my wife's in a mental institution because of a mental disorder, Darren."
"H-aahh?"
"Yes, jaudah."
"Why take a break?"
"Papa wants to eat, papa kangen same cuisine you, baby." Darren replied with a smile on Melisa. Melisa finally nodded her head.
"Let's have breakfast.." Take Melisa. Everything went from his seat and went to the dining room next to the kitchen.
"Naren where, baby?" Melisa asked as she did not see Narendra's whereabouts in the dining room.
"Gosh, like she's still sleeping, Mi. Come on, wake up, yeah, a minute. Let's go get breakfast." Ayunda said, he again moved from his seat by walking slowly because his stomach was very large slightly inhibited his movement. The woman went to the room to wake her husband, she opened the door and saw that Naren was still wrapped under her warm blanket.
Ayunda knows that it is indeed a weekend and that means it is time for Naren to rest after he was exhausted working for a full week in the office with a million jobs that seemed endless.
"Bag.." Call Ayunda while pulling the curtains and tying them.
"Mas, let's get up, dong." This time, Ayunda shook her husband's body slowly.
"Hoaamm-s.." Narendra yawned widely, Ayunda quickly shut her husband's mouth and patted him gently.
"Whispering, the habit of waking up like to nguap gede bener."
"Hehe, his name is also a habit. It's kind of hard to get rid of, baby." Narendra replied, chuckling softly.
Cup..
Narendra steals a brief kiss on his wife's right cheek, then pinches her puffed cheek that already looks like her mangrove.
"Isshh, what a slob you are, Mas. Not brushing your teeth, not washing your face already nyosor."
"Hehe, because it's just glittering look at your cheeks that puffed up that makes Mas can't stand to not kiss your cheeks." Narendra replied with a chuckle. She also rubbed her wet cheeks because of her husband.
"Udah, take a shower. Others have been waiting at the dining table, you are a very habit if the weekend must wake up at noon. I love making people wait." Omel Ayunda shook his head.
"No, not cold.."
"But, very dirty. Take a shower there, last night we're out of war you know, time not to shower. That body smells dry." Ayunda.
"Mandiin.." pinta Narendra made Ayunda flick her lips because she was upset by the husband's request.
"Udah big, shower yourself there."
"Yes.."
"Not spoiled, Mas. I want to be a father too, still spoiled."
"Hehe, yaudah."
"The shower, there's a surprise out there. You'll surely be happy to see the surprise." Ayunda said that Narendra who had held the bathroom door handle turned around and looked at the beautiful face of the wife who was smiling.
"What surprise?"
"There's a, so take a bath let you know." Ayunda replied, making Naren immediately go into the bathroom and clean his body as fast as lightning. He felt that this surprise was no ordinary surprise, so he was very enthusiastic.
"Have you? Tumben cepet shower her. Lizard bath huh?"
"Ckk, you are. I like to be confused with you, take a long bath in the bath of a soaking angel, cepet in a lizard bath katain. I was so wrong, right?"
"Yes the name is also a guy, if that is never wrong it must be a girl. I'm for example." Reply Ayunda with a laugh.
"Yes, the least wrong. Let's go out, baby." Take Narendra with his wife's hand. The couple went out and went straight to which room is not far from the main room or living room.
Narendra squinted his eyes as he saw that there was a back that seemed familiar to him, he seemed to remember someone who was currently in another country.
'That's like grandpa, but is it possible that he's gone home already?' Narendra nodded, she really felt familiar with her back, but she could not confirm it before she saw her face.
"Well, that's our fucking couple." Arvino said that made Narendra cut his lips. Pissed off? Of course, it was still early in the morning had also made him upset, even though he had just woke up from his deep sleep. But he was even suguhi with a small satire that made him annoyed to be thrown from the father.
"What the hell, Pi."
"No, but why do you like to make everyone wait hmm?" Asked Arvin by folding both hands on his chest.
"Already, Arvin. Let's eat, granddad. Your wife is hungry, she's late for a meal because you're up late." Said someone who made both eyes of Naren squealing, his voice was not foreign.
"Why, Ren? You don't recognize your own grandfather?" Darren asked while looking. He looked at Narendra with a meaningful gaze. Of course, he remembered the last impression they left just before he finally chose to go to America for a while, but unfortunately his accident instead made him have to part with his grandchildren and also his children.
"K-grandfather.." call Narendra stammeredly, he called out to Darren in a soft voice. Both of his eyes looked teary so moved he could see the grandfather in front of him like this.
"Yes, Ren. This is grandpa, how are you?" Darren asked with a small smile.
"Naren is fine, what about grandpa? Is it completely healed?" Narendra asked as he walked closer, then hugged the grandfather from behind.
"Yes, my grandfather is healed. Now grandfather has healed completely, has not taken the medicine again, so it can already go home." Darren answered while rubbing Naren's hand that was coiled around his neck because Naren was holding him while Darren was sitting while eating his food.
"Thank God, Naren was so happy to hear that."
"Hmm, grandfather is also happy because he is finally healed and can come home here to gather with you." Answer Darren.
"Grandfather, forgive our last bad impression. For that, Naren deeply regretted it. Naren apologizes to Grandpa, if for example that day grandfather was disappointed and hurt by Naren's words are a bit harsh." Narendra said softly.
"Grandfather has forgiven everything, there is nothing to forgive anymore. Thank you for admitting your mistake, son."
"Yes, Grandpa." Narendra replied with a smile. He rubbed the top of his granddaughter's head gently.
"Cieee, you'll be papa soon." Tempting Darren while gently nudging Narendra's arm.
"Hehehe, shame on me Cake."
"Ngapain embarrassed, anyways yes. Twins, should be more active. Don't be naughty, let alone kebo sleep her until noon like this. Your habits must be changed, let alone make people wait. Your wife is pregnant again, do not let her eat late just because waiting for you." Darren's advice makes Narendra crybaby.
"Kan Ayu can eat first.."
"Well, you don't know what your wife is like, Ren."
"Heheh, yes, Kek. Sorry Naren ya, sorry everyone if make you wait."
"Yes, let's eat." Take Arvino. They also started a delayed breakfast event long enough just to wait for one person who was still asleep earlier, who else if not Narendra.
