Zoya is on college holiday today. He took his time to find his father. Raymond did not mention where he lived because he himself was not that far away Nando did not tell him where he lived.
Zoya starts searching around her house. He was looking for no direction. He really is like a confused person.
Until finally he stopped to buy drinks at the edge of the traditional market. Zoya flapped her body with her hands while circulating her gaze. Then he made his eyes clear in one direction.
"Papa? Is he really papa?" Zoya approaches as she has paid for the drink.
Nando was still busy waiting for the queue of items he was about to transport. She had no idea Zoya had been standing behind her.
"Pa?" Call Zoya with a vibrating voice. Nando turned. He shed tears when he saw his daughter in front of him.
Nando takes Zoya away from the place. Then they sat in a quiet place. "How are you? Why are you working so hard? Come with me papa doesn't have to work rough like this."
"No, you know Leon doesn't like me" replied Nando.
"Tell me where papa lives,"
"Haven't worried about me, I don't want to be your burden anymore" Nando said.
"No papa is not a burden, papa is my parents, it's appropriate that I repay papa's kindness."
"I'm sorry, I've received punishment from God" Nando said with regret.
"Alright, if papa forces but I will come to papa's address, please no longer need to work as a pelvic coolie. I can't see my father suffering. In exchange I will send papa's needs, please," Zoya asked with a clear face.
"Alright," Nando nodded in agreement.
...***...
The next day and so on Zoya always took the time to stop by her papa contract. He always comes home at night.
Alisha is a little suspicious of her brother because on holidays she goes to college. But it was a lie. Zoya goes to see her papa.
One day Alisa accidentally follows where her brother is going. Zoya enters a narrow alley and settlement far from the word elite. "Actually who did he meet?" mummified Alisha.
Until at last he saw so that he met his parents. Alisha was surprised that her sister had also found her father.
Alisha clenched her hands. He decides to confess Zoya's behavior to Leon.
...***...
"Zoya, where have you been coming home at this hour?" search Leon. It was like intimidating Zoya.
"Certainly, aren't you lying?" Zoya nodded.
Leon already knows that his sister is lying because Alisha has complained to Leon. But Leon doesn't want to accuse Zoya before she proves Alisha's point.
...***...
The next day Leon secretly follows Zoya. "Is this Zoya you lying to me?" snapped Leon.
Zoya is handing over the money to Nando. "Please don't misunderstand me, I can explain."
"Examining what else. Obviously you already gave him money in front of my eyes, did he threaten you?"
"Please don't blame papa, just blame me" Zoya was sobbing.
"Let's come with me and never see him again" Leon's hand pulled Zoya's. The girl rebelled.
"Don't you remember her kindness when you were a kid? How can you be with the parents who have nurtured you and raised you, where is your service? Where is your good to him? in the rest of his life he even had to work as a pelvic porters in the market."
Leon was struck by lightning. Is his dad really that miserable. Leon breathed his breath. He still digested his sister's words.
"Take him home" Leon said in a cold tone.
Zoya is thrilled to finally realize how important her father was no matter how bad he was in the past.
On arrival at Zoya's house, he brings the father in. Alisha is shocked that instead of expelling Nando, her brother takes her father home and lives with him.
"What does this mean?" ask Alisha to Leon. But the man did not answer. He chose to go into his room.
"Why would you stay here if you would only carry the burden for this family?"

Zoya slaps her sister. "Jaga. It's not appropriate for you to talk rudely to papa, "groaned Zoya.
Alisha stomped her feet and returned to the room. He closed the door of his room violently. Even until it sounds out.
"Don't mind him. Let me take you to the room now, get some rest, I'll bring you some food, papa,"
From earlier Nando was just silent, he was afraid of wrong speech especially in front of Leon. The old man did not want to argue with his family members. Being allowed to stay with them is a gift to be grateful for.
