Danu sat opposite Daniel in the workspace which was also the library room.
"I've got the address of Medina village and we'll be there soon to see Medina Pakdenya" Daniel opened the conversation .
"hey.. Who do you think you got that address from?" Danu folded his arms forward.
"sister checked her?" Daniel asked curiously.
"I even investigated it without your knowledge"
Daniel rounded his eyes. He could not believe his brother was moving faster than him.
Now Danu folds one leg to the other.
"You remember when Medina brought her things and stayed at the Hospital while she was being treated?" Daniel win.
"That's when, I told people to look for information about Medina"
Daniel gasped at Danu's words.
He stood up and hugged Danu.
"Thank you brother..." Daniel said in his arms.
"Hey.don't geer..I did that for my mom. I need to know the background of the people, the people close to my mom. Your failure is a valuable lesson and I don't want you to take it" Danu said without letting go of Daniel's embrace.
"Medina made one request of me" Daniel let go of her embrace.
"oh yeah? what'sthat?" Danu asked curiously.
Daniel sat back down on the couch.
"Medina wants me to resolve the uncertainty of my relationship with Farah" Daniel said in a single breath.
Danu doesn't look surprised. He was smiling.
"I think my relationship with Farah is really over by refusing our engagement and her departure. Brother was right, Medina hesitated with me not because of her feelings, but she cared deeply for mom" Daniel said firmly.
"You're going to New Zealand?" Ask Danu.
Daniel nodded. He took a deep breath. Then shut up for a moment.
"don't have an idea?" Daniel looked at his brother.
"Get Farah after you're married. I'll prepare the honeymoon package. There are so many beautiful places, if you forget a little. It's a pity to be missed, isn't it?" Danu smiled widely.
Daniel stared in disbelief that his brother would give such an idea. He never even thought of getting there.
"of course I remember..." Daniel answered with a grouchy face.
And their warm conversation had to stop because time had entered Maghrib time. They went out of the room to do Maghrib prayers.
After dinner, Daniel headed to his study. He waited for Medina while playing a pen at his desk. He glanced at the wall clock, Daniel seemed to be getting restless because Medina never came.
Can't wait any longer..Daniel's out of his study.
His manic caught the figure of the girl he was waiting for sitting in the family room.
"Honey.I was waiting for you from earlier" Daniel said as he approached the sofa. He had not realized that Medina was putting Syifa to sleep in his arms.
"Honey..."
"czsttttt..."Medina covered her mouth with her index finger. Code Daniel so he doesn't make a sound.
Daniel snorted and immediately took a sitting position beside Medina.
"Syifa why else?" Daniel asked in a soft voice.
Medina did not answer. He still focused on stroking the back and head of Syifa who was asleep in Medina's lap.
After making sure Syifa was really sound, Medina shuffled up to take Syifa to her room.
"Let me carry her" Daniel said as he watched Medina seem overwhelmed getting up from her seat while Syifa was in her arms.
"Sunday Syifa woke up again" whispered Medina.
Syifa has now switched in Daniel's arms.
They both came out of Syifa's room after making sure Syifa slept soundly.
"Where are Brother Danu and Rani?" Daniel asked in wonder. Her manic circulated a glance throughout the pavilion room belonging to her brother.
"they left after dinner. There is news about her brother Rani entering the hospital" explained Medina.
"Om Grace in the Hospital?" Ask Daniel.
"we're talking here. I'm afraid Syifa will wake up and cry" Medina said.
Daniel remained silent. He weighed the speech of Medina.
"okay.we're talking here while they're coming home" Daniel pulls Medina's hand into a mini bar there. Danu deliberately did not make the Kitchen in his pavilion. There are only 2 rooms, a mini bar and a family room that are connected to each other. Danu deliberately made it like that because in order to continue to be together and accompany the mother in the main house.
"Honey.look at me" said Daniel who was a little annoyed to see Medina kept his head down.
Medina shakes. He just kept his head down.
Daniel could not stand it and pulled Medina's chin with his finger. Now their views meet each other. Looking at each other.
"Sister..." Call Medina.
Daniel brushed with only the friendly-sounding call of Medina tickled his ears.
"sister.don't be like this" Medina said again.
Daniel took a deep breath. He knew that Medina did not like the condition of those who were alone.
"i'm your future husband and you're my future wife. I think it's natural that we sit together" Daniel said with a face full of enthusiasm. Showing white and neat teeth afterwards.
"What would you like to say?" Medina distracts.
"Lusa..friend me?" Daneil asked after sipping a cold drink on the table.
"where?" Medina asked back. Now his manic looks at Daniel's handsome face.
"Visiting the navel of my future in-laws and asking for his true blessing" Daniel replied with a hand grasping Medina's fingers.
"sister..." Medina's bead glazed over when she heard that. The clear details are now starting to plunge freely in the smooth cheek.
Daniel's hand raised rubbed Medina's wet cheek.
"do you want to accompany me?" Ask Daniel slowly. Medina replied with a nod.
He misses his parents very much. But he could not go home to just make a pilgrimage for fear of meeting his pakde. Given that, Medina immediately asked Daniel a question.
"is my brother going to see my father?" Medina still did not take her eyes off.
Daniel nodded. Made Medina look back on her face.
"are you afraid to meet your boss?" Daniel read the look on Medina's face.
Medina fell silent. His head was getting bowed. His shoulders were shaking with sobbing. Medina still had not forgotten the events of the past. His fear now re-established his mind. He is afraid to meet with Pakdenya and will be forced to obey the will of Pakde.
Daniel could not bear to see his girl sobbing in front of him. Daniel grabs Medina's back and holds her in his arms.
"you don't have to be afraid, Honey. There I am beside you. I will make them kneel before you and apologize to you for what they have done in the past" Daniel said with a hand that continued to gently stroke Medina's head.
"do you believe me, Honey...?"
Medina nodded in Daniel's arms. He's even sobbing. Whether conscious or not, whether the effects of tired crying or late night, Medina felt Daniel's embrace was very warm and soothing. Until she was lulled in the arms of her future husband.
"Honey..." Call Daniel.
Daniel is waiting for a response. But nil. until several times he called and moved the body of his future wife. There was no movement from Medina. Daniel heard Medina's breath. Daniel smiled.
"Is my hug that warm enough to make you fall asleep so easily?" Inner Daniel.
"Alright Honey...You gave me a chance to practice carrying you before I continued to carry you after marriage" muttered Daniel and smiled faintly.
Daniel immediately carried Medina and took her to Syifa's room.
Daniel continued to look at Medina's face which still left a sparkle of tears. Daniel rubbed her very gently and covered her with love.
"Sleep Honey.after today I will be the first person who will always protect and take care of you" Daniel said before he left Syifa's room.
