"Are you ready, baby? Where Burhan.since I haven't seen him...." Ricky asked who was waiting at the front door.
"Burhan Beru finished checking the car.maybe now he's ready...." Answer Lia. Ricky immediately stepped towards his car that was parked in front of the main door.
"Mbok Narti.I tipped the house yes.titip granny too...." Said Lika.
"Yes, just calm down...Sister Lika and Mr. Ricky are also careful..." Sahut Mbok Narti while putting several bottles of milk into a baby bag.
"Lia.just in case you...." Lika turned to Lia who was still standing beside her.

Tin.tin...
The sound of the car horn was already calling out, Lika glanced at the wall clock, and she immediately gasped in shock.
"Well, it's almost too late to the airport!" Her exclaim. Then he took the baby bag that had been prepared by Mbok Narti and rushed up to the top of the car that had been lit on after Kezia.
"You guys be careful on the road....!" Lia Seru.

"Papa...are we going to meet Nando at the airport?" Ask Kezia.
"Yes dear.we will meet Nando...Papa misses him too..." Ricky Sahut.
"Ashiik..i already miss him.now each school leaves so deserted, because there is no Nando with us..." Kezia said sadly.
"Just calm Kezia down...Nando's still your sister, whenever you want you can still call him..." Said Lika.
Soon after, they reached the airport, in the waiting chair, a man was sitting with a boy. A bright smile dyed Ricky, Lika and Kezia.
"Nando....!" Call Lika.
The boy turned his head, a smile emanating from his handsome face, as he ran and splashed into Ricky and Lika's arms.
"Papa...Mother.i miss...." Nando. The boy is tangled between Ricky and Lika.
"You don't miss me, Nando?" Kezia asked pouting, Nando turned his head and immediately hugged Kezia.
"Who said.I miss the same fussy brother!" Cetus Nando's.
Martin who had been watching slowly approached them, gently rubbed Nando's head. His face looks cloudy.
"I'm sorry dad.has separated you from your happy family..." Said Martin. Nando turned around and hugged Martin.
"But I'm happy with Dad..."
"Our plane is waiting.we'd better get up fast..." Said Martin who immediately walked with Nando. Ricky, Lika and Kezia follow him.

The journey that takes approximately one hour has brought them to the city of Jakarta, then they rent a large car from online rental. Not until the long wait, the car they ordered was already in the airport parking lot.
"Make sure the address isn't wrong Pa..." Lika said as they got into the car.
"You take it easy. I've been using GPS...." Ricky Sahut.
Ricky and Martin were sitting in the front seat, while Lika and Nando were sitting in the middle, Kezia was sitting in the back seat alone. Every now and then comes the sound of a fussy baby Given asking for milk.
"if you're breastfeeding just say it. Later we'll stop..." Said Ricky who was worried that Lika was nursing carelessly.
"You take it easy, Pa. I've pumped my ASI in a few bottles..." Answer Lika.
"Given can already suckle using a pacifier?" Ask Ricky wonder.
"Already dong Pa. which is important the contents will remain ASI..." Lika Sahut.
"Ah..you're smart too.Who's wife..." Praise Ricky.
"Have Ricky.you will only make me jealous of your words.I never thought.the person who used to look sad is now very happy..." Sela Martin's.
Travel around looking for an address is not something easy, some times they stray and have to ask others, until the afternoon, they just arrived at their destination.
A house that looks more like a dormitory or a parlour has stood majestically before them, a halfway house where cancer survivors are gathered by a foundation. Then they entered and met the head of the halfway house, a middle-aged woman named Bu Ranti was already sitting before them with her friendly smile.
"Is there anything we can help you with?" Ask Bu Ranti kindly.
"We want to meet... Sarah..." Answer Martin.
"Mother Sarah? Sarah's mother had uterine cancer, right?" Tanya Bu Ranti assured. They all nodded their heads.
"Why did you meet him? Even to speak he can not already.The condition is really critical.according to the Doctor he just waits for time..." Obviously Mrs Ranti.
"We are the ones who love her, Mom.we want to meet her while there's still time..." Lika.
"Allow us to see him, ma'am.I beg you..." Martin said, clenching his hands together.
"Right now he's in a special room, he always refuses if he's going to be taken to the hospital...eat also use a hose that can only be passed through liquid food.the condition is very very concerning...." Obviously, Miss Ranti again.
"Can we see him now, ma'am?" Ask Lika.
"All right, I'll take you guys...." Ms. Ranti immediately stood up from her seat and walked down the hallway and up the stairs to the second floor, Ricky, Martin, Lika and the children followed in Bu Ranti's footsteps.
Until they reached a room located in the corner, slowly Bu Ranti opened the door of the room, and saw a thin body, sleeping on her back with many hoses in her body.
Martin immediately ran over and hugged the body, the broken cries of the man sounding extremely heartbreaking. Ricky rushed out of the room, leaning his body against the wall.
"Dear dad..why are you?" Ask Lika while holding Given.
"I'm.I'm remembering the past...." Lirih.
