"Where's your college, Nad?" Dad looked at Nadia.
"Good." replied Nadia politely.
"Try Jack is like you, maybe he has gone through S2 as well as you." said Dad, his tone sounded disappointed.
Again, Dad compared me to this girl.
"But Jack can now replace it, Om in the office, said Papa Jack is good at work." Nadia defended me, but I didn't need that.
"That's because he had to, if not what would he be? So mafia?"
"Om, could it be, a bad time to be a mafia?" Nadia glanced at me.
"Eat a lot of food, baby, let your body contain, as if the people know that Mom always meets your nutritional needs." Mom poured rice and side dishes onto my plate in a considerable amount.
"This is the portion of Mom's porters, can explode my stomach."
Mom and Nadia laughed, while Dad smiled cynically.
"Nadia, Om wants you and Jack to go on vacation first, choose a place you like, so we as parents can plan the next relationship."
"meaning?" Nadia looks confused.
"For your arranged marriage plan to be smooth."
"But Dad, I told you, don't interfere in my soul mate's business."
"Here you go, you take it easy, you know each other already, don't you?"
"Knowing each other doesn't mean loving each other, Dad!" my bluff.
"Yes, Om." Nadia protested.
"Here you go, you just follow the plot, parents will want something best for their children."
"Best for whom? For me, Nadia, or you?"
"Quiet baby." Mom rubbed my shoulder.
The atmosphere was starting to get hot. Dad's face looks red, I know he's holding back anger.
"Mom, Nadia and I are open little boys, we have our own lives and minds, have different dreams, you can't force us to live together."
Nadia fixated.
"Your brains have been washed by that slum girl. The girl whose origin is not clear."
"You know what Dad is about Zedku?'
"I know the smallest thing about that slum girl, even more than tau.'
"Be aware that Dad dares to bother him." I threatened.
"You made me do this, I told you, didn't make Dad angry and take strong action."
"I'm disappointed Dad, disappointed."
I left the room, Mom was hunting me.
"Don't go, baby, we'll talk about it again."
"Dad wasn't like that Mom, he always thought I was his doll."
"But he loves you, Jack."
"It's not mom's love, it's ambition, greedy lust, the desire to continue to be at the peak of glory at the expense of the happiness of others, even her own child."
Mom just stuck up.
"Let her go, and then come home again" Dad said, I don't care anymore.

"Zee, the woman who has been known as the secretary and future wife of a young businessman, the sole heir of the Nichol family turned out to be a daughter born of rape."
"Unexpectedly, Gadiza Zidni, the girl who shocked the media a few months ago turned out to be a child born by a woman who was a victim of rape and robbery in Bandung."
"This is, Gadiza Zidni, the daughter of the Drug Mafia who had stirred Bandung a few years ago."
I was glued to read the headlines of some online media.
My zed?
Is this Dad? Or does?
