Lost, Love of Two Hearts

A gift from Grandpa

After learning about Sakha's status, Darwish is now so excited and attentive to his grandson. It felt like she was eager to hug Sakha and tell her a lot of things. But, she looked anxious because ever since she cared so much for Sakha, it seemed that both Atha and Jasmine had always turned their excessive attention to her granddaughter, hence making her feel uneasy. And Darwish decided to return to America first from Byan.

While Byan was so very anxious, especially Jane who continued to invite him to return to America. However, Byan finds it hard to leave Sakha, even though he has learned the truth about Sakha.

Finally, three days after Sakha was admitted to the hospital, the boy was allowed to return home. Only then was Byan relieved to leave Sakha with his condition that already seemed to improve.

"Sakha, Om Abi has been here for too long and accompanied Sakha to health. So Om Abi said to come back to America, yes. Don't be naughty, be a good boy" Byan's message to Sakha said goodbye.

Sakha is disappointed to hear of Byan's return. But he smiled as he recalled the faithful Byan who had accompanied him in the hospital every day even though there were already Jasmine and Atha waiting.

"Thank you, Om has accompanied Sakha to this day. Come back, Om!" said Sakha who seems to have been able to let Byan go to America.

"Definitely darling. Om Abi will always be there for Sakha."

"Sakha dear Om Abi" said Sakha while hugging Byan.

"Om Abi also loves Sakha," replied Byan hugging Sakha.

Byan tried to hide his already teary eyes. It is undeniable that he really wants Sakha, wants to be with her always. But, it seems like it was just a dream.

Atha who saw that became moved. He actually could not bear to see Byan called 'Om' by Sakha. They are two people tied to the same blood.

As for Jasmine, she felt that if Sakha and Byan's closeness would be bad for her, maybe one day Byan could snatch Sakha from her, Jasmine thought.

*******

Three months later, Sakha is now able to play back with her friends at school after yesterday she controls the doctor who handles her surgery first. That's the last control schedule. Sakha is very happy, to be able to play as usual.

Byan and Darwish return to Jakarta to meet Sakha.

"Hallo Sakha, granddaughter of the spirit grandfather once now. How are you, baby?" Darwish scatters his arms at Sakha and holds her.

"Grandfather misses you Sakha" said Darwish so happily.

Darwish kisses Sakha's cheeks on the right and left. Sakha felt amused about being kissed like that because of her grandfather's whiskers hitting her cheeks.

"Hihihi, Sakha is also missing Grandpa!" sakha laughed as she rubbed her cheeks which still felt ridiculous.

"Grandfather has a gift for Sakha. Look, it's good, isn't it?" Darwish shows his hand towards the mini cross motor for Sakha.

Sakha got down from Darwish's sling and approached the mini-motor. Indeed, Sakha had always wanted the mini bike, but Atha had not been willing to buy it and had not allowed Sakha to have the mini motorbike on the grounds that Sakha was not even 10 years old.

"Om Abi," cried Sakha scattering into Byan's arms.

"You like it?" ask Byan.

"Like it," exclaimed Sakha who then wanted to try the mini cross motorbike.

Atha, who saw the gift from Darwish, was less liked. Not because of envy but the gift according to Atha is excessive. Because it is the same as pampering children with luxury items. While Atha taught his children always with simple and reasonable things.

Especially with the items that Atha thought were only in vain at the age of Sakha who was still a child, because gradually Sakha will grow into a teenager, and it is impossible to ride that mini cross motorcycle again when a teenager.

"I want to try the bike, Om!" Sakha was very enthusiastic to try the bike.

"I'll take care of her, promise nothing will happen to Sakha" Byan assured Jasmine. She is upset because of Jasmine's treatment which seems to not allow Sakha to play together with her own child.

"But..," Jasmine turned to stare at Atha for an approval.

Atha nodded.

"Only in the courtyard of this house alone, can not go to the streets!" atha gave the order.

"Yeayyy, thank you Papa!" Sakha was happy to be allowed by the smiling little Atha to the child.

It hurts to hear Sakha say the call 'Papa' to Atha. If time could be turned back, she would never leave Jasmine first so that she could have a whole family. But now it's the opposite. What regret did Byan get at this time.

"Ziva wants to come, Ziva wants to come!" rengek Ziva ran over to Sakha, his older brother.

"Let's go, Ziva!" sakha said holding her sweet sister's hand.

Darwish approaches Atha as Byan, Sakha and Ziva walk to the front yard.

"Uncle wants to invite Sakha to stay a few days at the Wiratama family's main house during Uncle in Jakarta," Darwish's permission on Atha to the point.

Atha gave a glance towards Jasmine.

"I leave the decision to Jasmine, because she is her mother," said Atha did not want to take the decision only one-sidedly.

Darwish looked at Jasmine full of question marks, as if encoding for the question that was thrown at her to Atha. Darwish was still silent with his gaze towards the flat Jasmine.

"can't. I didn't allow Sakha to stay there" Jasmine said smoothly.

"Why? Sakha my grandson," protested Darwish.

"But I'm his mother and I'm very entitled to Sakha!" firmly Jasmine.

"I am also entitled to Sakha. Because Sakha is the son of Abyan," Darwish protests back.

"That's wrong. Because from the beginning her biological father did not want Sakha to be born into the world," Jasmine said in a trembling voice.

Darwish widened his eyes, truly he could not believe what Jasmine had said.

"Basar Abyan is stupid. It's fitting that this woman kept Sakha's status a secret all along," inner Darwish was disappointed.

Darwish was silent and did not want to comment. He immediately stepped out toward Byan in the front yard.

"Abyan, Papi wants to talk to you" Darwish calls to Byan who is teaching Sakha to ride a mini cross motorcycle given Darwish.

Byan also approached Darwish after lowering Sakha from the mini cross motorbike.

"Did you not want a child from the beginning?" asked Darwish while glaring sharply at Byan.

Byan was surprised, he was nervous.

"I-that's because...," said Byan stammered and unresolved.

"Whatever your reason, Papi wants Sakha to be my granddaughter entirely. Take Sakha out of Jasmine and Atha's hands!" darwish orders with a heart that holds back anger.
