Akbar POVs
My mood was a little chaotic this morning, since getting word from Bram that Bella was going back to Surabaya made me think a little. Especially after I got more detailed information from Qiana's best friend who had accommodated Bella at Qiana's house at that time. To be honest, I was really upset with Bella all the events that had passed did not make her better and learned from the mistakes she had made.
It sucks him again when he always blames others for the destiny he always accepts and does not match what he expects. What I was worried about was not only Dafa, but the existence of Qiana should also be protected because now Bella was also eyeing Qiana, to vent her defeat.
After breakfast I saw Dafa and Qiana's two nieces tugging at Qiana's hand, it seemed like they were taking Qiana to play in the back garden. I decided to join the other adults in the living room, I wanted to discuss about Bella to both my parents and both of Qiana's parents, she said, so as not to be a misunderstanding as the friend of Qiana was worried.
I decided to tell them from the beginning and in as much detail as possible, so that they would know the matter clearly. Bang Reza as the only sister Qiana has seems very upset and promises to protect Qiana and her family from Bella's disorder. So did Fani who seemed to be holding back her anger that was ready to explode, in contrast to both my parents and Qiana who looked calm, responding to my words.
"It seems that I and Qiana had to return to Bandung immediately because the only place Bella didn't know about was the house in Bandung. But what I'm worried about, is that Bella's going to do Om and Aunt to lure Qiana and me out to meet her," I said to explain my thoughts so that we could negotiate to choose the best path with minimal risk.
"Yes, I agree with your proposal, son. For Om and Auntie here you don't worry about this brave Om boy, surely he will protect his parents well" said Om Rizal while embracing Bang Reza's shoulders.
"Why do you want to come back to Bandung or still want to stay here?" I asked Grandma Mira who had been watching us.
"Grandmother here was Nak Akbar, because Grandma must check up on Grandma's health again in the hospital yesterday" replied Grandma who I saw was still worried. When he was about to answer Grandma's words, suddenly a rowdy voice sounded in front of the house.
"Kowe sopo's? Enter the house of people kok sluman-slumun." the voice of a woman who sounded very emotional.
"Let me in, that fox lady must be inside?" shouted a woman I believed was Bella.
We who were sitting around in the living room immediately stood up and walked forward to see what was really happening. Looks Fani walked the front and fiery, my brother's bottom was always easily ignited emotions.
"DID YOU COME HERE!!" Shouted Fani when he reached the front porch, Ake noticed the look on Bella's face that suddenly turned shocked.
"Why are you at Qiana's house? Not in a hotel?" asked with a pias face, it turned out that he had misjudged the situation.
"WHAT'S YOUR BUSINESS? ALREADY GO DON'T BE HERE!!" fani shouted, There is good thing Fani knows all my life issues these past few years, so she knows how she should behave.
"A..apa. I just want to visit my high school friend's house," he said a little stuttered, just talking to Fani the guts have shrunk.
"Here Bell, you just go home do not disturb the happiness of Auntie's child again. Thank you for throwing Dafa into the orphanage so that my granddaughter can meet Qiana who is far away better than her own biological mother. Thank you for leaving my son's life, never to come again, or prison will be your death-finding companion" Mama said in a calm but stressed tone.
Bella already looked pale as there was not a single person to side with her.
"Ma, but because of Qiana, Bella is separated from Bella's husband. Just try if Qiana does not meet with Dafa and Akbar, surely I will be fine with my husband and not be defeated in divorce," said Bella defended herself, saying, ah I guess he'll give up it turns out his venomous mouth is still looking for an excuse.
"Akbar and Dafa meet Qiana or not, still you will be imprisoned because actually as long as you go my people follow you while in Singapore, but not once have my people seen you with my granddaughter. And it's been very burdensome for you, not to mention that now there are witnesses and hard evidence about the neglect of the child that you did to my granddaughter. Just choose if you want to ruin my family's happiness or you want to be in jail again?" papa said calmly.
At a time like this I am very lucky and grateful to be surrounded by good people and support me fully, to stay upright.
Without replying and without saying goodbye, Bella turned around and left Om Rizal's house with a face that I could hardly describe.
"Mama's son, the hotshot turns out. Learn where you get angry with people until the shoots are rowdy opponents," said Mama while embracing Fani's shoulders.
"Mama, don't ask me where I learned, the answer is clear. I LEARNED FROM MAMA." replied Fani while running away from Mama, because it had succeeded in tempting Mama. Everyone seemed to have returned like before the presence of Bella who was annoying. It was not long before Qiana came with the children.
"What's wrong, outside all and noisy," he said with a puzzled look, he always looked adorable in my eyes.
"What your best friend said, it happened. Bella just came here, thankfully you and the kids are behind," I said, inviting everyone into the house.
"Astagfirullah, I haven't told Papa, Mama, sorry Qiana yes, you must be surprised at the arrival of Bella," said Qiana while patting her tongue, to be honest I want to laugh at her spontaneity.
"It's quiet, Mama, our Father all knows everything. It was fortunate that Akbar had told me about Bella and her behavior so we-we were not surprised anymore" replied Mama.
"Thank God, thank you for making the right decision" he said, smiling sweetly at me. I have always been weak with Qiana's sweet smile, even though I knew that she had not loved me as much as I loved her.
"Together, we must start learning to be open to each other so that there will be no misunderstanding in the future" I said.
We go back to the living room negotiating the decisive steps to take when Bella is seen acting up again, as well as a way to explain to Dafa about her birth mother, it is quite strange and complicated when discussing the matter about Bella. I felt so stupid to be stuck in a mask that Bella wore for almost 5 years from dating to having Dafa. We also talked about my wedding preparations and Qiana, which will be done in Bandung. The conversation stopped when the children looked sleepy.
These children, even if they were not born from Qiana's womb they seemed closer to my girl and ignored her biological parents. I saw Bang Reza and his wife seem overwhelmed to take their children to bed and stand with them when there was Qiana. I don't know what he's done to the kids, until they're so attached to him, maybe he has a sincere affection. Dafa was always looking for Qiana, even though I was with her.
"Sir, this is your voice from earlier" said Santi to Qiana.
"Oh yes Ma'am, thank you," he said, noting his phone screen, appearing to be frowning as if he was confused by what he read or saw from his phone screen.
"Why Qi?" I asked myself to start thinking about Qiana's business, then he looked at me and smiled stiffly.
"Ah, there is nothing Mas, just a message from Mama Dewi," he said as he rubbed the backs of Dafa and Lea alternately.
"Oh, what's wrong with Mama Dewi? Is there a problem?" ask me again, because from the expression I caught Qiana looked surprised when reading the contents of the message. He did not answer my question immediately, as if he was thinking of stringing up a word before answering it.
"Emh, there is no problem just want to meet me before we return to Bandung Mas," he replied carefully.
"Yes, go later Dafa let me be with me," I said, however, I could not forbid Qiana to do anything, not my right.
'Yes, I will go after Maghrib. Let tomorrow we have a lot of time for packing and rest before the day after tomorrow return," he said again, I just nodded. Honestly, it's still an idea what the two women of different ages will discuss when they meet later.
