For Yumna

Custody

In office.

Kevin gasped in shock at hearing from his lawyer if the police suddenly issued a Warrant of Cessation of Inquiry for the Yumna persecution case reported by them.

"Why is SP3?" ask Kevin not to believe it.

"They say if there's not enough evidence. They call our report fabricated."

"M-is-there?" Kevin furious.

"Yes. But of course it's just an excuse. There's someone with great power who's involved in this case."

Kevin was silent to listen as the two lawyers in front of him explained in detail that their reporting could not have been closed if there was no one who had a major influence in the police force who interfered.

"Who is that guy? What does this have to do with Kayla." Kevin curious.

"We'll find out soon enough. But after this woman we reported will definitely come out of hiding, we ask you to carefully look after your wife and daughter because she could have come back to see them."

Kevin nodded in understanding. What his lawyer said was true. Kayla will most likely meet Yumna and Naya.

"alright. Thanks for the information."

 

Kevin could not concentrate on leading the meeting, his mind was divided on Kayla who this time was free from the entanglement of the law and especially on the safety of Yumna and Naya who could have Kayla come to meet the two to hurt them.

On the sidelines of the commotion that was going on inside his head, Kevin was shocked to receive a phone call from Naya.

The look on his face changed instantly considering this was Naya's first call to him, with a beaming face she immediately picked him up.

"Hello."

"I just wanted to let you know if I'm going to pick Yumna up for school."

"Why? Is everything okay?"

"Yes. After school I just want to take her to the mall, I think it's good to cure her trauma."

Kevin did not answer, he only re-thought of Kayla who is now free to roam.

"Hows it? I also know that you must be busy with your work. So from now on let me pick her up every day."

"No! I'm not busy" Kevin answered quickly, making everyone in the meeting room see him immediately.

"I don't have a job. We'll meet at Yumna's school. Wait for me if I haven't come." Kevin stood up, constantly being stared at in wonder by all his employees.

"I'm sorry. I have to go now. We'll continue later." Kevin then left the meeting room indifferent to the astonished and disappointed looks of his employees.

Somewhere else.

Claudia was crying so much in front of her sister as well as Kayla.

"So Kevin broke off the two of you just because of that woman?" Indra saw her beloved sister.

Claudia nodded as she continued to cry, making Kayla unable to hold back her laughter seeing Claudia who was depressed because it was decided by Kevin.

"What do you expect from Kevin? He's just a pick-up boy, not Cahyo Bhisma's, he's not gonna get anything." Kayla still keeps trying her laugh, taunts Claudia.

Indra just took a deep breath hearing Kayla's words which she thought were true.

"That's it. You're beautiful. You're gonna get more men than that Kevin."

"But I fell in love with him. Now I don't think about treasure and I don't want to think about her with that woman."

Indra just scratched his head that did not itch to see the sister who continued to whine and cry in front of him.

"Where are you going?" ask Indra to his ex-wife.

"I'm going for a walk. A few days in this room frustrates me a little." Kayla stood up while looking back at her reflection in front of the glass.

"Oh yes. Ask the lawyer to take care of our marriage again, just say if we'll refer to it. We have to move quickly to take custody of my son" Kayla said as she walked to the door.

Indra did not immediately agree. Just staring at the departure of the ex-wife until it disappeared behind the door.

Indra again saw Claudia who was still as excited on the sofa. He immediately approached the younger brother and patted his shoulder slowly.

"Stop crying. That man doesn't deserve you to cry. Let brother return your pain. Will brother make Kevin and his wife unhappy all his life because brother will take their son."

***

Naya got off in the taxi, looking at her watch as she walked towards the school gate.

He pulled out a card that marked if he was one of the parents of the school students there, showing the card, then he could enter the school and could pick up his daughter.

But his steps stopped when he heard someone calling him.

Naya gasped to see Kayla standing not far from there leaning against a luxury car.

The two stared at each other intently, as if ready to hit the war drums.

Naya looked completely undaunted, as Kayla approached her with a hateful look.

"Give me that card. From now on I'll hold it." Kayla raised her hand.

Naya thinned her lips, smiling cynically at Kayla's request.

"This card?" Naya showed a card in her hand.

Kayla will immediately take it but swiftly Naya brushed off her cousin's hand.

"Still want to meet Yumna? Not satisfied yesterday tormenting him?"

"Don't say much to you. You should know yourself. You are a stranger to my son. I'm his birth mother, I'm more entitled to it."

"Oh yeah? Have you forgotten what you did to your son?" Naya again smiled cynically.

"When he was born, you did not even give him a drop of breast milk, just focus on taking care of your body because you want to get back to the rich man to make you the next prey. Then go leave it to me without even thinking about whether your son can survive without you being his birth mother by his side?"

"Whisper you!"

"You are indeed her real mother, your blood is indeed flowing in her body, but not with your affection. Even I'm sure that in your heart there's not even a little bit of your affection for Yumna." Naya pointed at Kayla's chest.

"Whatever you say. Anyway I'll take my son Yumna from you. I'm gonna sue Yumna for custody."

"Take it if you can. The court is not blind, they'll know who's more deserving to raise the child."

Kayla smiled cynically while having her chest crossed.

"The court can't ignore the fact that I'm her real mother. According to the law, only the birth mother has the right to care for and raise her own child. Not anyone else. Let alone you, you are even just a stranger."

"Remember this stranger who raised your son to this day."

Kayla laughed out loud.

"alright. So you're bringing your services to my son? What about my parents who raised you from childhood? Let's just say we break even, now I want to take my son away from you again, so don't you get in the way."

"Until any time I'll never give it to you. I know your foul intentions. Yumna in your eyes right now is not a child you should love and care about, but in your eyes now Yumna is a treasure that will make your dreams come true."
