Destiny Syakila
eps 82s
However, now Syakila realized that it was just his false hope, because it had been two hours he waited for Beni to come to pick him up. But Beni did not come.
”Huff,” Syakila sighed. He looks moody, ”Beni did not come to pick up. Did the man without the heart forbid it? It's been two hours I'm here, long sitting sore too.”
He stood up, circulating his gaze into the market, during the day this market has begun to empty buyers. Syakila.
”Eh, the store right on the roadside that's an accessories seller, I want to look around the goods first, who knows if there's anything I like.”
Syakila muttered as she walked towards the store. He went inside and looked at the accessories in the store. He took some hairbands and hairpins. He is still exploring the store.
”Excuse me Ma'am, Mbak is looking for what accessories huh, Mba? Let me help you get.”
”For a while Mas, I look around first,” Syakila replied by turning her back to the seller. He was still looking at the things in front of him.
”Mba, just tell Mba what's the item? Let me help you find. I have to close this store for a while, so please cooperate, Mba.”
”Mas, I as a customer, I feel very disappointed with Mas's remark as a seller.” Syakila said annoyed, he turned to see the seller.
”Sorry Mba, if my remarks have offended Mba. But this is lunch hour, I have to go home, my wife is waiting for me.” explained the seller.
The seller looked at Syakila for a moment, he just realized something.
”Syakila?” said later.
”Iya, my name is Syakila, Mas know me?” Syakila's forehead shriveled.
The seller smiled, ” You are Halim and Sarmi's son, right?” The seller wants to make sure whether his guess is correct or not.
Syakila now looked at Denis more and more confused. He not only knows me but also knows my parents, Syakila thought.
”Iya, I'm Halim and Sarmi's son. Do you know my parents?”
”Syakila, have you forgotten Om? This is your Denis Om, Kila! About Denis!” denis is excited.
Syakila tried to remember Denis, but her mind was deadlocked. He forgets how the face of the person he knew first, he only remembers his name.
”Sorry Om, Syakila has forgotten the face of Om. Syakila only remembers names. This is Om Denis who used to live in the same house as us, right?”
”Yes, smart boy! Your memory is not too bad either.” Denis stroked Syakila's hair with a smile.
”Om, Syakila is already big, do not caress Syakila's head again like a child.” Syakila protest.
Denis laughs, ”Hahaha, for Om, you are still his little boy Om, dear.” Denis again stroked Syakila's head. ”You're coming Om to the house yes,” Denis pulled Syakila's hand out of the store.
”Wait Om!” Denis stopped, he turned to look at Syakila, ”This, Syakila has not paid him, this is how much it costs, Om?” Syakila showed three different types of hair ties and three kinds of hairpins to Denis.
"Already, you just take it, Om give it free. Let's go home, you haven't had lunch, have you?”
Syakila nodded, ”Iya Om, Syakila has not had lunch.”
How about lunch? I'm still here. Food stalls too I don't know where it is.
”Ya already, come with Om. Later, after finishing lunch, we just came back here to choose again the items you want, ok.” Denis bargain.
”No Om, thank you, it's enough of this only.” Syakila smiled awkwardly. He was very embarrassed to get free stuff. Syakila put the tie and hairpin into the plastic shopping.
”Do not hesitate, Syakila!”
”No Om, not so.”
Denis and Syakila exit the store, Denis closes and locks the door. By motorbike, they both have now reached Denis' house. Syakila became astonished because Denis stopped in front of her papa cosmetic store.
”Om, still stay here?” Syakila pointed to the house that stood on top of the store.
”Iya, let's go home,”
Syakila. He followed Denis from behind. Syakila walked while looking at every corner, the walls of the house. Eyes glazed.
Papa, I miss papa's warmth in this house. Still clearly drawn in my eyes will be joking and laughter papa, mama, brother, and sisters in this house. I miss that warm atmosphere, Dad.
”Syakila, why stare at the door? Come log in!”
Syakila was surprised by the touch of Denis' hand on her shoulder.
”Oh, yes Om. Sorry, Syakila daydreams.”
Syakila stepped her foot back into the house that she had left six years ago. The house built by his father.
”Sit, Kila.”
Syakila sat her ass on the couch. Denis went to the room to see his wife. His wife is putting a little baby to sleep.
”Honey, you're home?” Samnia got up from the bar, he tidied up his clothes. He just finished giving breast milk for his third baby with Denis.
Denis approached Samnia who was now walking towards him. Denis kisses Samnia on the forehead after Samnia kisses the back of her palm.
”Dear baby, I'm home. Is the food cooked, baby?”
”Iya is cooked, want to eat now? Or wait for your two heroes to come home from school just eating?”
”They'll be here soon, we'll wait. Oh yes dear, there is Syakila in front, can you make a cup of tea for her?”
Samnia smiled happily, ”Of course dear, I was so happy she could visit here,” Samnia realized something, her smile faded. ” Dear, how can Syakila come here? Isn't Sarmi forbidding her children to come here well?”
”Oh yes, I didn't think about it. Make tea with me too, we chat in front while waiting for the hero to come home.” Denis stepped closer to his daughter who was soundly asleep. He kissed her forehead.
”Alright, wait outside. I put your son's mosquito nets first just made tea.” Samnia walked into the wardrobe to pick up the baby mosquito net. Denis went first in the closet.
”Honey, let me do it. You make tea only.” Denis took the mosquito net.
”Alright,”
Samnia comes out of the room, Denis opens a mosquito net and sets up the mosquito net to protect his daughter from mosquito bites.
”Sleeping well my little daughter,” Denis kissed her son's forehead again and then she tidied up the mosquito nets and came out of the room. He went to see Syakila.
Not long from Denis out of the room, Samnia also came with a tray containing three cups of tea. He put the tray on the table.
”Loh, Shakila where, baby?”
”I'm here Aunty,” Syakila recited from the direction of the balcony that leads to the sea. He went in and approached Denis and Samnia. He sat facing the couple.
Samnia gave tea to Syakila. ”At drink, Kila.”
”Iya Aunty, thank you.” Syakila took the cup. He took a sip, then put his cup back on the table.
”How are you all there, Kila?” Samnia asked.
”Alright, Aunty.”
”How did you get to this city, Kila?” denis asked now. ”Have you been here a long time?”
”It's been two months? Why don't you take a walk home, Kila? What's your husband's name?” ask Samnia.
”Iya, it's been two months. Sorry, Kila thought papa's house hadn't been occupied in a long time. So Kila didn't stop by at home, Kila just stopped by the store to buy something. Husband name Kila Geovani.” Syakila clear.
” Kila, Kila know not, why did your mama forbid you to return to this city?” ask Denis seriously.
”No Om, Mama didn't tell us anything. My mom forbade us to come here. But, my destiny brought me back here.” Syakila looked at Denis seriously, ”What Om know why Mama strongly forbid us to come here?”
Denis and Samnia looked at each other. Then they both looked at Syakila.
”Syakila, you are in this city should be careful, if anyone asks you about your papa, and ask for info about your family, do not you answer it directly. It will be dangerous for you, ka__”
”Why can it be dangerous, Om?” crop Syakila.
"The son of the late Kevin is looking for the whereabouts of Halim's wife and children, which is why your mother forbade you to come here. It's also because Om, Om Anton, and Om Hamid forbid your mama to allow you here, even if only for sightseeing.” Denis said.
”Kevin? Who's Kevin? Do you know anything about the events of six years ago? Please tell Syakila, Om!”
”Assalamu 'alaikum,”
Denis, Samnia, and Syakila were distracted by the voices of two young children greeting them.
”Wa'alaikum greetings, Nak.” say Samnia, Denis and Syakila. ”Having returned from school well its hotshot Mama and Papa.” continued Samnia said.
The two young children slowly approached Samnia and Denis. He kissed the backs of his parents' palms.
”Iya, Mah. Mah, Rey hungry.” shoot Rey by stroking her stomach.
”Roy is also hungry, Mah.” complains Roy.
”Mommy and Papa's kids are hungry already? My mom's food is on the table. You two greet Aunt first, then change clothes and come to the dinner table.”
Roy and Rey. The two of them greeted Syakila and kissed the back of Syakila's palm. Syakila smiled at the cute behavior of the twin boys.
”You two are so cute,” Syakila pinched both cheeks of the twin boys.
”Auntie, don't pinch my cheek. I don't like anyone else pinched my cheek other than my Papa and Mama.” Roy and Rey said simultaneously.
Making Syakila dumbfounded, he sees Denis and Samnia taking turns.
”Roy, Rey, it's rude to talk to Auntie. Let's apologize to Auntie and change your clothes.”
”Iya Mama,” Roy and Rey stick their hands forward. Shakila greeted him with a smile.
”Sorry to Roy, Aunty.”
”Sorry Rey, Aunty.”
”Abibi will be sorry you two, if you kiss Auntie's cheek.”
”No,” Rey and Roy running into the room. Shakila was surprised, Samnia and Denis smiled wryly.
”Syakila, sorry Rey and Roy. They both don't like to touch each other. In addition to his parents and close relatives. Even the two of them do not want to hang out with girls.” explains Denis.
”Hah, still small has limited themselves with women. How big will it be?” syakila said unconsciously.
”Daddy, that's what we're afraid of, Kila. He follows his grandfather's nature from me,” Samnia said. ”Had mending us lunch first now, later we continue talking.”
Samnia stood up, Syakila and Denis stood up. They walked into the kitchen. There the two Denis twins were already sitting on his stool. The three of them also sat on their respective benches.
”Syakila, ayok spoon of rice. Don't be shy.”
Syakila scooped her rice. He ate his food while thinking about Denis' words.
Kevin's? Who's Kevin? Did he kill papa six years ago? Then who's Gege? Did Gege tell Kevin to kill my papa. But, what is my papa's fault?

While at Albert's residence, Beni was pacing back and forth in front of Geo.
”Art, stop pacing back and forth! You're not ironing, are you?” ketus Geo.
”Geo, how are you this calm? While your wife is still out there, we don't know how she is right now! Has he eaten or not? I'll find him!”
Geo speechless.
Cih, that woman must be having fun with the man she just met. Why should I worry about him? If it wasn't to take care of me, I wouldn't have touched that cheap woman.
”No need to look for her, at most she is having fun with men out there!”
Beni bobbing head, ”As far as you are, I want to find him back to the market.”
Beni grabbed the car keys from the drawer. He stepped out. Geo caught up with Beni immediately.
”Art, wait for me!”
Beni smiled happily in her heart. Geo and Beni are back in the market. Arriving at the market, they did not find the figure of Syakila in the parking lot.
”Geo, you wait here. I'll find Syakila into the market.”
Geo nodded. Beni got out of the car. He looked for Syakila in every corner of the market. But he did not find or see Syakila there. Beni tired of looking, he returned to the car with his regretful and dull face.
Geo can already guess from the look on Beni's face, if Beni fails to find Syakila. Beni got in the car.
”Huff,” Beni threw a rough breath into the air while sweeping both her hands across her face. He was leaning on the back of the chair he was sitting in. ”Where are you Syakila?”
While Syakila, he, Samnia and Denis return to the living room after they finish eating. They finished the rest of the tea.
”Om, can you take Syakila home at Albert's residence? Syakila wants to go home, but Syakila is afraid to take a taxi.”
”Hum, Om will take you there.” Denis said. ”Hah, what was that you said Kila? Re-try!” suddenly Denis was surprised after realizing something.
”What's Om?” Syakila was confused.
”You said Albert's residence?” Syakila nodded, ”You are her ex-children Albert and Rosalina?” syakila nodded back.
”Why?”
”Eh, no. Not sure when you are the daughter-in-law of a prominent person in this city.”
”What? Famous people in this city?” now Syakila was shocked.
Quickly, at that time he could contact the police chief in town A as well as the police chief in town S. Apparently, they have a high position. Rich people like to be happy. It was only fitting that his temperament was so bad!
”Ayo, Om will take you home.”
Denis stood up, Syakila also stood up. Syakila said goodbye to Samnia, saying goodbye to the two Denis twins. Denis drove Syakila on a motorbike.
Beni and Geo return home.
