Finding the Heart

Finding the Heart
Back to the Warmth of the Family



"Darling, you go home first with Dicky. Yudha's brother had to accompany Burhan first to the police station. Later if the business is done Brother Yudha returns home"


"Sir Yudha is serious? No kidding. Dhika and Aldis must be happy to have Papa back home"


"Yes, honey. Just wait at home"


"Be careful, Brother" said Dicky, taking his brother's hand and kissing the back of his hand.


Risa did the same. After convincing Yudha that she is okay, Dicky and Risa get into the car. Dicky drove Risa to his house. Then he told Juan the good news, his father. An hour later Juan, Yulia and Adel arrived at Yudha's house. They can't wait for the return of the eldest son of the Marabahan family home.

After leaving the police station, Yudha and Burhan headed to the intelligence agency office. Reporting what happened to the head. There's already CIA people waiting for them. The criminal case committed by Richard was eventually closed with the death of the suspect. And all his men have been crippled by the CIA.


"Control yourself, friend, don't interfere" Burhan whispered when he saw Yudha's expression when he met Dave Stanley.


Yudha remained silent. He knows this is a job. But his heart was always upset to see or hear where Dave Stanley was.


"Thank you for your coordination, Mr. Yudhas. I am so proud of you", Dave extended his hand. 1)


Yudha was forced to accept the hand of her love rival.


"See you next time, dear" whispered Dave. 2)


"I'll kick your *** next", replied Yudha. 3)


Dave smile. Then bowed respectfully and left the room. Burhan patted Yudha's shoulder from behind. Praise Yudha's calmness and patience this time.

"Adam, I'm sorry about you. I cannot keep my promise to help you. God loves you more and He is the one who ultimately saves you from the cruelty of this world. But I'm gonna petrify your son one day, I hope he'll be the best boy for you. This is my promise!"


Yudha said in front of Adam's tomb. He and Burhan took the time to visit his best friend's grave.


"What did you mean, Yudha?", asked Burhan on his way home.


"Which one?"


"The child's problem"


"Ooo..."


"Not Ooo... Answer my question, Yudha"


Yudha laughed at the protest of her best friend. He leaned his body even deeper into the back of the car seat. Burhan was next to him, behind the wheel, so I saw Yudha's behavior.


"Yuudha ..."


"Hmmm..."


"We are this ...!!!"


"okay... Okey... Alright. I mean, it was Adam's son. The son of Adam and Milea"


Burhan turned his vehicle to the side of the road and stepped on his car brakes so deeply that Yudha was sucked from his seat.


Burhan doesn't mind his best friend's protests. He looked at Yudha. His eyes glared like he could not believe what he had heard.


"Adam and Mile??"


"Hmmm..."


"You're serious, Yudha!"


"Yes"


"We're sure of what you said just now?!"


"Yes"


"How is it possible!?"


"They love each other and end up doing it on the basis of liking. Without a marriage. And Mile is currently pregnant with Adam's son. Two or three months to go"


"And the child will be born as an orphan" Burham said.


"Mile wants to raise that child. He didn't want to make the second mistake of dropping it. The one who will surely be hit with Adam's death is Mile. So I want to help her raise that child. His life needs"


"certain. I will not stay silent either. Does anyone else know this story?"


"Yet. Bari you're the one I told you about. I haven't been able to tell the others"


"Where's Mile now?"


"He's in Bogor. He knows Adam's problem. Ken's there to tell him"


"I'll talk to the others. We think about the fate of the boy together. Adam and Mile are our best friends. There's no way we're gonna let him have that kind of hardship"


Yudha nodded, she agreed with Burhan's words just now.

"Papa.", Dhika runs to hug her Papa.


Yudha hugged her eldest son. Kissing her. Let go of his longing. Yudha approached Yulia, took her mother's hand and kissed her, and hugged her tightly. He did the same thing to her.


Adel was no less afraid of hugging his eldest brother. The one who is always there for her who always keeps and protects her. The one who missed her so much these past few months.


Finally the family's longing was erased already with the return of Yudha Lintang Marabahan to his home. Half-hearted embrace of his family.
