Epilogue 3
- Khanza
(May General's Chamber, 22:12)
I cry at Papa. After our guests came home, I immediately sungkem with him. Who would have thought, my stubborn, fierce, and do not want to lose turned out to be gentle and loving. After hearing Kendra's story, I couldn't say anything. Only then did I realize that a father's affection was invisible. In front of his son look cute, but behind there do not hesitate to block the cross-section for the happiness of the child.
"Why did you stop Papa from earlier?"
"Papa, this mallem Khanza is booby same Papa ya"
"Udah is proposed by people who are still like a baby" he said.
"When again. Khanza kangen is caressed with Papa's head. It used to be that every Papa bobokin Khanza must be glued."
"Here.here... Didn't think Papa's son was this big. I'm getting married" Papa's voice is a bit heavy. Maybe too carried away the atmosphere considering this little girl will soon be married to people. Duh, I'm following mewek.
"Papa.. later if Khanza is married, Papa tetep become the number one Khanza kok" entertain me.
"It is you. Yesterday between Papa and Kendra you chose Kendra better"
"Hehehe... This papa, digombalin does not work. But anyway, for Khanza Papa will not be killed."
"Udah.. Papa's going to sleep."
"Good sleep, Papa. What a beautiful dream." And after the man fell asleep I whispered in his ear, "Khanza dear Papa"
Although it kept its eyes closed, but there was a faint smile on the lips of the man.
*God, accept it a lot. I didn't think you made me the luckiest woman in the world. Having two amazing men, who tirelessly kept my smile alive. *

(Twenty-four years ago)
"Kenken ndak papa?" a little girl blew a wound on the knee of a boy older than her.
"Ndak papa's. Kenken ndak nanis." said the boy.
"Sasa makes Kenken atuh" said the sad girl.
"Kenken keep Sasa. That's the bad guy. Sasa Chases. Kenken shoot later"
"Papa Sasa also bica shootout. Catching criminals."
"Kenken uga wants to shoot. Let Papa Sasa"
"How about Kenken?"
"Sasa puttin Kenken. Kenken will heal"
The words of the two boys were interrupted by the voice of an adult woman from inside the house, "Le.. Nduk.. Where are you?"
"Mom.." the little boy replied.
"Let's go in the house. Nduk it's been picked up by Papa.."
Hearing her Papa being called, the little girl ran into the room, "Papaaaa.." her shout was greeted by the bright smile of the green uniformed man who had just arrived.
"Papa's beautiful son. Khanza's been eating?"
The little girl nodded in spirit.
"Printers. Now let's go, we go home"
"No stop by first Ndan, my wife cooked the gudeg earlier" interrupted the driver. Since the death of his wife, the soldier could not keep Khanza if he had to be left for service. Be the driver's wife helping her take care of Khanza.
"Thank you, Kang. But chase this plane. Khanza's goods have also not been machined. Leave now yuk"
"Ready, Ndan. I'll get the car ready first"
"Well, congratulations, Commander. Hopefully with a new position more blessed yes, sir" his personal driver's wife did not escape encouraging.
"False, Ms. Yu. I have also been repotin for taking care of my child"
"No hassle Ndan, I'm actually happy Sasa here. My son has his friends."
Kendra's dad came back in, "And, the car's ready"
"Yes, I say yes first Ms Yu."
"Neither Ndan (Yes, Ndan.)" Then the woman went back to her husband, "Ngatos-atos nggih, Mas (Be careful, Mas)"
Just now Mr. Army was about to step out, the only princess suddenly asked to be taken down from her sling. "Father.papa.sebental Pa." After treading the floor, the little Khanza ran again into the house looking for Kendra.
"Kenken.." cried the boy.
"Sasa? Sasa napa lali-lali?" ask the boy.
"This is. for Kenken" said the girl holding out a toy she kept in her pink bag with Barbie and the Nutracker. A very clear and beautiful crystal ball was now changing hands.
"Dadah Kenken.." Khanza waved both hands. But before the little boy ran back to his Papa, a small kiss he landed on Kendra's tiny lips.
No one remembers, but that was the first time they kissed.
