LAZUARDI LOVE #9

for a moment Kenzie took a breath, fixing a sentence to melt his father's heart in order to grant his request.

"And he's a senior journalist, Pa." replied Kenzie, "When were we both told to learn self-taught about journalism?"

Adnan laughed again. "Oooo... So want some advice? I'll be sure to call him later."

"Now, Pa.." insisted Kenzie.

"Don't Ken. I think your father was right. Oom Ahmad may be busy at this time.next time." Trias cut.

"Naaaaa.

Kenzie looked fiercely at Trias, but the young man was acting indifferently. Trias was addressing Adnan. "When did we both get to meet Oom Ahmad?"

"Later to read through Kenzie." Adnan replied smiling and nodding kindly.

Trias got up and please leave. "Then we both said goodbye, Oom." he said, pulling Kenzie's hand to get out of the place.

adnan's call made the young man's second move stop. Kenzie turned to look at his father.

"Call your sister.say you'll pick her up." Adnan ordered.

"So, I said in the chat, he's going to be late." replied Kenzie.

"That's exactly it. You'll pick him up" Adnan said this time a little pressing. "You asked where he was, and then you brought him home."

"Good Pa.." replied Kenzie.

the young man followed Trias who was waiting for him beside his parked motorcycle.

"You are!! lost your chance to meet Oom Ahmad!" kenzie said with annoyance.

Trias laughed softly, "Boncengi me first. we go to Central Market, later there I will explain."

Kenzie nodded then took his motorbike and turned on the engine.Trias then climbed into the boncer.after that the motorbike they were driving had driven down the shopping centers until they finally along the Middle Road.

"I deliberately cut off Oom Adnan's conversation so that he would not be suspicious of our mission" Trias said rather loudly from the chatter. "If your father has contacted Oom Ahmad, then we will slowly carry out our plan."

"So that?" button Kenzie with a voice that is no less loud.

"So we still have an easy investigation.if your father finds out, then our action will be stopped in the middle.he must have contacted the police, then the police came to our school, they came to see me immediately, he said, then interrogate me, and if this had been the case, Burhan would have been suspicious.he would have been more careful.and finally, neither the police nor we could have caught the culprit." Trias explained at length.

Kenzie nodded.

"You guys are great at analyzing the atmosphere" said Kenzie.

"Eat him don't get emotional first" Trias said with annoyance.

"Sorry bro. I got carried away with emotions" Kenzie said with a laugh.

"Hey, we're going to Central Market. I'm going to see my Papa" Trias said.

the motorbike drove down the Middle Road until it arrived at Kramat Village, the outer Central Market complex.The vehicle continued to drive and arrived at the central part of Gorontalo City Central Market.

Kenzie parked his motorbike at a place provided by the Central Market manager.The two stepped down the porch and arrived at one of the building corridors.

the two went through the market until they arrived at the butchery.the two looked for the stall of his father Trias.before how long they turned out to have arrived at the butchery.

in the sultry stall stood a burly man bare-chested and only covered him with apron.a large machete was clasped in his right hand.a necklace model of tasbih balls hanging from his neck. occasionally the man stroked his plontos head.

"Papa.." said Trias.

the bald-headed man looked at him and laughed. " Have you come? let's help Papa clean this up." ask the man to point to a large box containing a pile of cowhide and goats. Kenzie who saw it immediately retreated and closed his nose, while Trias stepped towards the box that his father had pointed at.

"Tri, I'm back, yeah, I have to find my brother" Kenzie said.

Trias laughed, "Eleeeeeeh... Just say you're disgusted to hold those skins." The god then shook his hands inside. "We will meet tomorrow, don't forget our mission. "

"Beres." replied Kenzie.

the young man left the row of meat stalls and continued down the hallways in the market.he arrived at his parked motorbike. Kenzie reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone then pressed the number and brought the gadget closer to his ear.

📞"Assalam aleikum.." greet Aisyah.

📞"Where's brother? Papa said my brother will pick me up" said Kenzie.

📞"Sir is in the IAIN Sultan Amai campus." replied Aisyah.

📞"So I moved campus?" ask Kenzie.

a moment of laughter was heard across the street.

📞"No Ken, I met my sister's friend who is studying here. "said Aisyah with a crisp voice.

📞 "Yes already..I went there. " said Kenzie while closing the call.

the young man put his phone in his pants pocket.After paying the parking fee, the young man turned on the machine and put on a helmet and drove his motorbike away from Gorontalo City Central Market.

Kenzie drove his bike through Pertamina and Hulondalo roundabout to the Gelatik area, where the IAIN Sultan Amai building is located. Kenzie put his vehicle into the campus yard area and parked it. He sat on the saddle and pulled out his phone again and contacted Aisyah.

📞"Hello, Assalamualaikum, Brother where? I've been in the courtyard of this campus, I'm waiting here huh.quickly come, sister." pinta Kenzie then cut off the conversation and save his phone back.

shortly after, from the direction of the corridor appeared Aisyah accompanied by a student who was very well known by Kenzie.

"Bakri brother? you two know each other?" ask Kenzie who was surprised by the sight.

"Of course, your sister told me about you" Bakri said with a smile.

"You guys are dating, right?" guess Kenzie.

"Ken, what the hell?" sergeant Aisyah with a puff and her face flushed with embarrassment while Bakri just laughed while scratching his head that does not itch.

"Rinso put on your brain" Bakri said as he blotted his waist in anger, "You know what? your brother and I are friends of Poso's village. I went to college here first" Bakri said, glaring his eyes.

"Bakri says your silat skills are increasing rapidly." praised Aisyah.

"Indeed, it's not useful to take care of yourself, it's also to keep your brother so that you don't get kidnapped by people" replied Kenzie while teasing the two.

"Ilobuta ambunguma." maki Bakri while laughing. "Here you go, take your brother home."

Kenzie turns his motorcycle and then allows Aisyah to piggyback.

"Tomorrow, I'll wait for you to be knocked down, okay?" bakri's Message.

Kenzie shakes."I beg your permission, haven't practiced yet, like Triassic as well."

"Why? how come you guys compact permission not to practice?" asked Bakri in surprise.

"We were both working on an important assignment from an Indonesian teacher, visiting Papa's acquaintance who was a journalist" Kenzie replied as he turned the stater key. "We got a job covering the news."

Bakri nodded, "Yes already. between your sisters..."

the black motor driven by Kenzie and driven by Aisyah left the campus area.

...*********...

suddenly Adnan remembered something.

"Ken, Papa has contacted Oom Ahmad" said Adnan on the sidelines chewing food. Kenzie leaned forward a little, wanting to hear from his father.

Adnan said, "He agreed to meet with the two of you. He set his deadlock tomorrow" Adnan said after swallowing his food.

"Where's the address, Pa?" asked Kenzie cheerfully.

"Padebuolo, near the Walfajri Mosque. just ask the same birman-sirman there. they must have told you." replied Adnan while continuing to enjoy his food.

the word 'word' refers to the word neighbor or resident who lives beside, front or back of the house.

"Okay boss!" replied Kenzie, who this time was more enthusiastic in finishing his food.

"What's this?" ask Mariana curiously.

"School work, Ma." replied Kenzie. Mariana looked at Aisyah.

"What about your test? when announced?" ask Mariana.

"Lusa Ma, on Campus." replied Aisyah with a smile.

"Sister turned out to have a friend here Ma. Man, handsome, roommate he said." cut up Kenzie.

"Basar ngadu niiiii.." said Aisyah with annoyed mimic.

Adnan looked at Aisha. "really? what's name?"

"Bakri, Bibi Una's son in Lawanga." replied Aisyah while looking down to hide her blushing face.

"Ooooo Bakri Muchsin? his son Una Laiya? yes, yes, papa remembers." said Adnan with a smile and nodding.

"Who are they?" ask Mariana.

"The child is not someone else.he still belongs to my close niece." Adnan replied as she stared at Kenzie and Mariana alternately.

"And you know, my family is a branch of the Laiya family.We are still both Bugis descendants."

"So, are we still a bugis?" ask Kenzie.

"Only his descendants. after all we have intermarried with the natives." replied Adnan.

Kenzie.

"What do we talk about those strains? that's just bullshit. Papa when marrying Mama did not get opposition from two families. whereas your mama fam is not a careless fam, there is still kinship with the Suwawa kings line." said Adnan while lowering his voice.

Mariana just smiled.

"In Gorontalo, many families have high status because they are descendants of Jogugu in the Gorontalo Sultanate. There is also a cousin of Papa, who married women whose families have the ancient royal line of Gorontalo.

"What's Dad's cousin's wife?" ask Aisyah.

"Bobihu, one of the seven great families who are descendants of King Panipi" Adnan replied.

"Is he surnamed Lasantu?" ask Aisyah.

Adnan. "His mother is from the Laiya line. her father is a former soldier from Surabaya. now he works as a State Civil Apparatus."

"Kok can ya, Papa's cousin of Javanese descent married Gorontalo noble women? is it not opposed by both families?" asked Aisyah curiously.

"The fact is not. precisely the meeting with the woman is very unique" said Adnan with a serious face as if to read a story.

"Tell me Papa." pinta Kenzie.

"Eeeee.... Why do we have people? can't! the sin!" cut Mariana .

"Mama has forbidden it" said Adnan while returning to enjoy his food.

"Let's... Mama... blocking my curiosity alone." said Kenzie fiercely."

"Mama's right Ken. " said Ayesha. "If you want to know about him, just ask him directly.do not pass the tongue of others."

"Nyindir the story?" adnan said with a laugh

"Sorry Pa, I'm just adek." replied Aisyah while looking down.

"Sorry brother, I was jealous of you" Kenzie said honestly.

Adnan and Mariana were amazed by the honesty of her son. "Why are you jealous of your brother?"

"I thought badly, he'll take you from me." replied Kenzie, looking down.

"You don't get jealous with brother, dek. brother will not take Papa and Mama. it's the brother who is worried you don't want to accept brother here." reply Aisyah.

"Already, already..congratulate you guys tonight." said Mariana. "We'll finish this meal, there's nothing left."

and the warmth in the dining room grew warmer

Fitri had just put down the phone handle and pressed his chest with one hand.The woman closed her eyes and several points of tears fell down her cheeks.fortunately Fitri quickly realized and wiped her tears.

do not let Kameie know, let alone Iechika. of course the two men will interrogate him.The news from his brother in Poso about the existence of his daughter makes the woman feel the pain in the heart. longing for the boy began to seep again in his heart.Fitri had always been able to hold his longing and only send money to his brother to meet the needs of his daughter.

now Aisyah is studying higher education in Gorontalo and lives with her father and stepfamily.of course the affection of the mother continued is not as big as the love of a biological mother.

the guilt of leaving Aisyah alone in Poso is more heartbreaking.If she could bring Fitri together to Japan, it would not hurt her longing. moreover, the visa he has is only valid for himself.even though he is married to Kameie, Fitri has never changed his citizenship status despite having to go back and forth to take care of the extension of stay in Japan every 5 years.

his heart is worried and colored with many choices.does he have to go back to Indonesia, all while accompanying Chiyome there? what about Kameie and Iechika? of course they will be difficult and not managed.

it is her duty to take care of her husband and children. In Japan, she has a happy family. Fitri is not until the heart leaves Kameie .

Fitri stepped down the hallway and unknowingly he was standing in front of his daughter's room.Today, Chiyome officially left to continue her education in Indonesia.

Fitri looked at Chiyome who had been packing things in her activities.The woman sighed then walked up to her daughter.

"Mom hopes you won't have any trouble there" she said heavily.

"Mother.I'll be fine" Chiyome said, stopping her activities and then addressing Fitri."I'll always tell Mom."

"Will you accept Mom's request?" ask Fitri with disdain.

Chiyome looked at her mother, "Tell me mother.."

Fitri sighed, "Mom never understood, why you chose Gorontalo City for your studies. but.

Chiyome continued to look at him. Fitri strengthened her heart and then continued to connect her words again. "Mom wants you to find out about someone, and how they live."

"Who is he, mother? is he a valuable person in your eyes?" search Chiyome.

asked like that, immediately made Fitri stunned.the woman then smiled thinly and shook her head. "No.. It's just that she's the daughter of someone who once contributed to her mother while living in Gorontalo."

"So, my arrival must be due to fate.don't worry mother, I will carry out your orders." []
