Father to My Daughter

the decision to be independent

"Unfortunately mother is already fragrant. Have you eaten yet?" ask Jennie.

Her little daughter just nodded small either rightly or not which surely Jennie only replied to that with a ruckus. Holding him fast and walking to his father.

Jennie lowered Nara, she turned on her father's hand, grabbed him and kissed the back of his hand.

Those eyes still glazed over every time I saw Jennie. And he hugged the body lovingly. "Be happy, son, so it's the mother who can take care of your daughter. Don't fail like you." he murmured.

Jennie smile. He returned the embrace of the father warmly. "I'm sorry Jennie dad. Actually here is not a failed father, only Jennie who can not keep Jennie's property as a woman."

"Sssst don't talk about that. I just want to ask you to look after this father's granddaughter. Not that I have to look back." he said. Jennie nodded as well.

"Jennie's going to try to do it for me" she replied. Mr. Ridwan patted Jennie on the shoulder, then let go of his embrace.

"With Grandpa yuk, we play again inside." invite Mr. Ridwan to Nara, who is still at home holding the skirt of her mother.

"Looks like Jennie first yeah, I'm tired anyway, right? I'd better get some rest."

Mr. Ridwan crouched down. He kissed both of his grandchildren's cheeks. Then he went back and walked into his house.

While Jennie was still at home on the porch with the little princess. Nara shows a new Barbie doll that is still neatly packed. Surely the doll she was holding was a gift from her grandfather, that Jennie thought.

he kissed Nara's cheek and tried to open the box containing the new doll.

"Waaahh is so beautiful. Like Nara didn't?" jennie asked Nara while kissing her cheek. Nara was just happy.

On the other side a motorcycle from a distance observed the two of them with a thin smile from the biker. He turned the engine back on and left.

As dinnertime all gathers, Jennie helps her mother prepare the dishes on the table. The grandfather was still playing while laughing with Nara.

It has been a fun pastime for her grandfather since Nara was born in this world.

"Yuk, it's been playing.. We eat first." invite Sukma's mother who directly carried Nara. Take him to the dinner table.

"Will grandma's grandchildren want a grandmother or Mother who feeds her?" Ask the sukma.

"Bunaa." she replied innocently as she pointed at Jennie. They also chuckle.

"Here's the mother's bribe." Jennie sat next to Nara. He fed his daughter first.

In between his dinner. He also opened the conversation just a stale conversation.

"Emmm Jen? Have you heard from Iskandar Luthfi?" ask Dad.

Jennie shakes. "Not yet, why?"

"Astaghfirullahalazim" replied Mrs Sukm. Jennie was silent.

"And now the case is still handled by the KPK" he said.

"Accounted Concerned." Gumam bu Sukma's.

"In fact, let alone many assets that are withdrawn. Not to mention the fine."

'Kasian brother Andi.' Jennie murmured in the heart.

Jennie smiled, her gaze pointing to the princess. "Nara is done, here mom clean up that we play in the room ya." said Jennie.

"Dad, our mother went to the room first." said Jennie shortly after cleaning Nara's face and hands. He also moved while holding Nara.

Sukma's mother looked at Ridwan. "We should not discuss everything related to Andi and his family sir. You see Jennie is still very sensitive about it." said Bu Sukma. Mr. Ridwan nodded.

Today, Ms. Sukma is not home, she is attending a gathering of mothers who are in the complex where they live.

Cklaaaaak greeeddd Jennie and Nara gasped at the sound of the already slightly rusted iron fence. He saw Sukma's mother enter with a sad face. Jennie.

"Mom? Mother why?" ask Jennie.

"It's okay, Jennie, you go in first." she said. He hurried into his house. Leaving Jennie who was still looking at him confused.

"Grandmother Why? Come in love." take Jennie who directly carried her child.

He walked in looking for the mother who was not seen in the living room, maybe the mother was already in her room? Jennie kept walking towards her mother's room.

The foot that had just set foot in front of the door had not been able to knock. But he had stopped his steps when he heard the sound of his mother's crying, who was sitting on the bed with her back to the door.

"Hiks, what's wrong with having a daughter who already has children outside of marriage? My daughter is polite. My daughter is still a good child." she murmured very softly but could still be heard by Jennie who was sad, the article was not only one twice he saw his mother or father in the neighborhood scorn, being a neighbor's gossip, if only he heard it might no longer make him hurt, but if the name of his parents has been carried and stamped as a failed parent? That's what makes Jennie can't survive in this house anymore.

Jennie pecks her daughter's cheeks. And decided to move back away from the place.

Then go into his own room.

Jennie put Nara on their bed. Take a moment there.

'It's not good if I'm here too long. Father and mother, will definitely continue to get scorn from their neighbors and colleagues. Should Nara and I sign a house?' jennie turned towards Nara. His daughter was still busy playing with her dolls. Jennie smiled, maybe it was the best decision. He must be self-sufficient in finding his own place to live.

Both... With Nara.
