Double-role

CHAPTER 182 (Season 3)

In the middle of the silence of the night the howls of wild animals were so heartbreaking. Wind gusts are so strong presenting cold air increasingly piercing the skin.

Zulfan's family is still in an old Calvin's shack. There they felt what Calvin had been through all this time.

Dawas raised his pale face and looked at his second grandson. He got up from his seat and crouched down in front of Calvin.

The young man was flabbergasted when Dawas suddenly hugged him so tightly. The two frail hands of the grandfather gently rubbed his sturdy back.

He felt wet on his left shoulder as tears were dripping there repeatedly. He realized that now his grandfather was really sorry and was devastated.

"Grandfather's sorry, you can do anything to your grandfather. Grandfather was greedy due to the sparkling life of the world. Grandfather wants to avenge everything, you can return the words that once hurt you. Grandpa .. will do whatever it takes so you can acknowledge Grandpa as your family" he said gently.

All who heard it were stunned, not believing. Dawas who so uphold the dignity, now let go of everything.

Calvin did not return or let go of his grandfather's embrace. Her jet brown netra looked straight ahead where in the room she had spent a lot of time with her father and mother.

As if witnessing the memories of the past, the shadow of his parents was so clearly visible. They looked at him with warm eyes and smiled gently.

Calvin was flabbergasted as if his father had said, "You deserve to be happy with the Zulfan family. Live well." Caused the clear liquid to flow again on his handsome face.

Zaidan and Alina who witnessed that were shocked. The two watched Calvin's gaze so blankly as if looking at something.

However, they can neither bully nor disturb. Both Alina, Zaidan, Moana, and Farraz let the granddaughter and the cradle spend their own time.

"I've forgiven you, Grandpa."

Hearing the word grandfather popping from Calvin's lips, Dawas stiffened and slowly let go of the embrace. The two cloudy netra saw a smile on the grandchildren's face. His heart was racing like a big surprise.

"Really?" tanyanya nervous.

Calvin nodded confidently, "Although at first I did not want to acknowledge the Zulfan family anymore, but .. seeing the earnestness of Grandfather regretting everything."

"Thank God, welcome to our family. From now on your name is Calvin Zulfan." Dawas hugged him tightly.

Now Calvin retaliated and shed tears. He could feel the warmth of a family.

...***...

One week passed, after the shocking events of the Zulfan family, the condition of the elder was still unstable. Alum is sick and having to lie on the bed cannot do activities as usual.

The declining state of the company also makes it unable to do anything. Dawas could not ask for Zaidan's help, because there was shame surrounding him.

In the midst of solitude, someone opened the door. The hijab woman who was two-bodied was also poking featuring a cheerful smile.

Dawas widened both eyes at a glance and turned to the side watching the outside view through a large window.

"How are you doing this time? I've brought you porridge." Alina placed the tray she was carrying on the bedside nightstand.

He stood right there while continuing to look at Dawas who was still reluctant to see his existence. Alina developed a knotty smile and linked her fingers tightly.

"I know you still can't accept my presence, but .. I hope you-"

The owner of the name was flabbergasted when Dawas turned his head with a different look. Alina stared on the spot not saying another word.

"Can you sit down?" pinta Dawas, "Pregnant mother is not good to continue standing like that," he said again. Alina nodded clumsily and sat down on the single sofa right next to the bed.

Sepi makes the atmosphere there so awkward. Alina locked her lips tightly waiting for what Dawas was about to say. Until not long ago the middle-aged man also back up.

"What made you last this far and not leave Zaidan?" dawas asked as he looked into the moon bead of his daughter-in-law.

Alina returned a smile and rolled her eyes to the side. "Love." One word has meaning.

Dawas widened the view looking at the happy face there. Now it was her turn to wait for Alina's expression.

"Love that keeps me going. I would never have been able to fight this far if there wasn't that word in our lives."

"In the first marriage .. I gave up and preferred to part with him. There is no love that binds our relationship. It was all on one side, that's why I chose to back down."

"However, in this second marriage I and Zaidan loved each other. That feeling we can't just let go of, even if you challenge it, but I can't let go of Zaidan mas. We have sworn before God to live together" he said sincerely.

Dawas was silent without a word, the twinkle of happiness that emanated in the glare of Alina's eyes already explained everything. Home life is like a mirror that shows the story of the past.

Dawas is not like Zaidan who prefers to stay with his loved ones. He gave up everything he had to live with his partner.

"Grandfather was happy to hear that. Then, why are you still so kind to Grandpa who is clearly on the verge of separating you?" ask Dawas again curious.

Now Alina is widening her smile showing her rows of white teeth. "Because Allah is forgiving. I just want to forgive anyone who has hurt us. I'm trying to make life better. You know what I mean."

Dawas felt slapped and silent for a while digesting his words, "From now on don't be formal anymore."

"What do you mean?" ask Alina worried.

Dawas also curled both corners of the lips to make Alina surprised. This time, her husband's grandfather smiled at her.

"From now on call me Grandpa like Zaidan. You and the baby in your womb .. have become part of the Zulfan family, not only that .. Your son, Raihan, he has become my great-grandson. Thank you for not giving up on the situation and ... Grandpa apologizes for what happened. Grandpa learned a lot from you, Alina and ... Grandpa knows why Zaidan didn't let you go."

"Because of you Grandfather realized one thing if .. events in life are not separated from His plan. Thank you for encouraging Grandpa to admit wrongdoing, because life is based on God alone."

"During this time Grandpa was too lulled by temporary pleasure" he said at length.

Without tears streaming down both cheeks, Alina could not believe hearing the confession from elder Zulfan. He immediately shook his hand and thanked him a lot.

"Thank you, Cake. I will try to be the best wife and grandchild for you. Thank you," he said.

Dawas nodded his head several times and rubbed the top of Alina's head. Without them noticing, from the direction of the entrance Zaidan witnessed all that. He smiled with relief at the end of the existence of the wife and child he could be recognized.

"Thank you, thank God for all the pleasure You have given me" he said in his mind.

...Seriate......
