Merapi Never Ingkar Janji 2 (The Return of the Sultan)
SS. 40. The Arrival of Astrid
The sound of the morning adhan rumbles, the morning sign is almost approaching. She opened her eyes with a beautiful smile.
'It turns out this isn't a dream, I'm really here.' He murmured in his heart.
A gentle light greeted, as the morning breeze flashed in front of her hair child, as if saying 'the morning spirit of love'.
Love ?
Is that love ?
Never before has Tata felt the name love. Even the love of her parents had not been felt.
"The spirit of his morning love Mama Tata."
As soon as he greeted Nindya who was still lazy in her bed.
Tata plays a sharp nose and her hair that has elongated covers the eyes.
"Mama." Whispers watered.
Spoiled she hugs anita's neck, she kisses both her cheeks and forehead. Tata bent part of his body so that the little girl could reach him.
"Wake up yuk..we go for a walk, after that take a bath let seger." Bring along.
"Yuk.." said happily.
No need to go far, just around the yard of the house, have made their sweat spray.
"Mbak Watik, look at them. Really like mother and son." Comments of Bunda Arum who saw the activity of Tata and Nindya are fun.
"Mother's Highness, not only the look on the face of Mbak Tata similar to the Almarhumah Mba Kinan, but also the affection of Mbak Tata as unfortunately on his own child." Mbak Watik commented.
Since losing her parents, Tata has never felt the affection of a father and mother. Maybe because it makes Tata feel how lonely life without both parents.
'Quite I feel, there should never be another Order in the world.' So murmured first.
"Let's go, enough for this morning. We take a shower, that's breakfast." Take it to Nindya.
Her main task in this house, to take care of Nindya. All the affairs that had to do with little Nindya became his full responsibility.
"Never hold another job, before the needs of the Dea are met." Al's instructions before he leaves.
Mr Al, where is he ? Since her arrival in this house, Tata has not met her.
'Oh, why am I looking for him. He wouldn't care about me here either. All I have to think about, the important thing is that all my work is in order.' the expression of his heart.
"God, how beautiful is Eyang's grandson." Sapa Eyang Arum who was waiting for him at the dining table.
It is not just Nindya who looks fresh and fragrant. But Tata, too, though he was lacking in school, but his manners and the way he carried himself, defeated a highly educated man.
"Good morning, Eyang." The word Tata teaches to Nindya.
"Good morning, Eyang." So he said mimicking what Tata said.
"Dear, how did you sleep last night ?" Ask Mother Arum.
"Yunya Eyang, Dya seneng bobok same Mama Tata. Before the bobok, Mama Read the fairy tale for Dya. Dya also bobok hugged Mama Tata." Story enthusiastic.
"Thank God, Eyang was happy to hear that." His Comment.
The current scene, Mother is amazed by the way Tata teaches good eating habits to Nindya.
"You yourself how's boy ? Are you happy to live here ?" Ask Mommy wants to know.
"Alhamdulillah, Tata very happy Mother. Moreover, there is an adorable Nindya." He replied while mentowel a little pipil padlung Nindya.
'In fact, my choice was never wrong. If I can, I want Tata to be not just Nindya's foster mother, but Al's wife.' Mumbles Mother in the heart.
Mommy's attention is not spared from all the movements of Tata who patiently helped Nindya breakfast.
"Oh yes dear, Mother nitip Nindya yes .. this afternoon Mother there is an event out of town. There's an invitation you have to attend." Said he told.
"Mother's Gift, God's Insha, Tata will always be near Nindya." The answer.
"Yes can not be naughty with Mama Tata ya. Eyang will be gone for two days. Maybe tonight or tomorrow morning, Papa's home." Back Mother gave an explanation.
'So, Mr. Al also has business outside the city. So that I haven't met him.' Think Tata in the heart.
"Yes Eyang." Spoiled answer.
"Smart kid." Praise Eyang again.
Mother is not only graceful and beautiful, but also clever. Even at the age of Mother who is not young anymore, He is still active in the world out there.
"That left first, huh ?" Pamit.
"Yes Eyang."
"Remember the message of Eyang, Dya can not be naughty and must obey Mama Tata." Mother Message.
Nindya nodded and was still struggling in Anita's arms.
Mother has left and Al has not returned. Only Tata, Nindya and a few domestic assistants were in the house.
"Mak Ata."
Not yet had Tata and Nindya set foot into the house, Mr. Slamet called him struggling.
"Yes sir, what's wrong ?"
"In front there's a girl looking for you." Mr. Slamet said.
"Girl ?"
"Yes Mbak, he said brother Mbak Tata, he insisted want to meet. He said there was something important he wanted to say."
"Didn't he say, what's his name ?"
"The name is Astrid Ma'am."
"Oh yes sir, he's my cousin. But I dare not accept guests sir."
"I told you, but he doesn't believe."
Doubt and worry make no difference. It is in this situation that Tata is currently in.
"Try me, let me meet you from inside the fence sir."
"Yes, Mother."
Mr. Slamet tailed behind, as did Nindya. There was an unpleasant feeling that would occur with the arrival of his cousin.
"Astrid sorry, I can't accept guests, what's up ? And how do you know I'm here ?" Tata asked a girl who stood behind him.
"You are yes, you haven't done enough to make my family suffer. Now you do it and we are affected !" Shouts loudly.
"What do you mean ?"
"Don't pretend to be stupid, after you're content to take Andri's mas from me, now you feel good living in this luxurious house." Hit again.
Tata was forced to cover both of Nindya's ears, so that the innocent boy would not hear her cousin's harsh words.
Seeing what Tata did, skillfully Mr. Slamet carried Nindya a little away from the place.
"Just tell me what makes you this angry and please don't make a fuss in this house." Pinta Tata smooth.
"You're one of the people responsible for the destruction of my family." Astrid said with anger.
"Don't talk too much about Astrid, tell me quickly, what's the point of you coming here ?" Tata said still with his patience.
"Mas Andri and his family came to the house. They are angry because they feel you are embarrassed. And now they threaten you, will confiscate your house if in one week you can not return the debts." Answer Astrid.
'Take Paklek house ? That means my house too, the home of my late parents ? But the debt for what Paklek use so must pawn a home certificate ?' Thought in the heart.
"How much does Paklek owe ?"
"Not much, just a hundred million." Answer Astrid ketus.
"Sorry Astrid, I can't say anything. If Mommy and Mr. Al have returned, I will meet Paklek. I'll ask for an explanation." Tata replied hesitantly to what Astrid had said.
"You think I lied !"
"That's not it, but I just need an explanation."
"Okay, I wait !"
After saying so, Astrid left the Kamandanu residence. As for Tata, he could not think at the moment. Al's all he needs in an emergency like this.
'But, can Mr Al help me ? While one week is not enough time to find that much money.'
His heart was filled with doubt at that moment. But, whatever happens Tata must be able to maintain his attitude, especially in front of Nindya.
