MIRACLE (Next In Fizzo)

EPISODE XIII

Arka fell asleep in Arsen's arms. This kid might be tired. Arsen carried her and took her into the orphanage under the guidance of Novian. As soon as the two of them got to the doorstep, a middle-aged woman walked out from inside the parlour. Seen from the appearance of the woman is about 50 years old, Arsen guess. The woman smiled and stopped in front of Arsen.

"Novians...How are you, son? You haven't been here in a long time, is everything okay?"

Arsen who heard the question from the woman glanced at Novian beside her, as if asking for clarity. The sensitive Novian then said, "She's a nursing home mom, Ms. Narmada."

Arsen smiled and nodded. He who was busy carrying Arka with both hands moved all the burden of Arka to his left hand, and his right hand he made to shake hands with Bu Narmada. "I'm fine ma'am. It's just that the back of this my job at the office is so crowded that it hasn't been here for the last three weeks."

Ms. Narmada smiled, "Thank God then." His eyes looked at Arka who was asleep in Arsen's arms smiling. Then he said, "Arka misses you so much. Always ask when you'll come. Sometimes he doesn't even want to eat. But I always thought you'd come later. Kids believe in anything. I feel sorry for him."

Arsen and Novian who were grunting were even a little shocked. Arsen stroked Arka's back fondly.

"Alright he's asleep. Take her to her room, I'll be out for a minute." After saying that Bu Narmada smiled kindly and came out. It was echoed by a nod and a smile by Arsen.

Then Arsen took Arka to his room under the guidance of Novian. Novian had already memorized this place. His footsteps were like there was no obstacle to step forward to turn and turn. Until finally we got in front of the room. As soon as they entered, Arsen saw that this room was a little spacious. Some bunk beds neatly lined up. Novian stepped onto the bed at the very back followed by Arsen. Novian tells Arsen to put Arka on his bed. The Ark bed is like no other. An ordinary bed with no other bed on it. Call it solo.

After putting Arka to sleep and covering her. Arsen looked towards Novian who was sitting on another child's bed beside Arka. He asked, "You don't grow up here, but you come here a lot?"

Novian looked at him silently for a second, then replied, "The book that was raised here. My mother used to come here even after marriage. I was brought here by my mother a lot from childhood."

Arsen who heard that nodded his head understood. Then he remembered one thing. Gathering a little courage carefully he asked a question. "If your mother and this parlor are very close. Then why did he leave you here?"

Novian was silent for a long time. Realizing that Arsen seemed to be speaking wrongly, he closed his lips.

"Sorry, no need for you to answer it's okay either."

"I don't want to trouble Ms. Narmada. I don't want to use my mother's relationship with this parlor to stay here. Especially in the public eye my status has a father. Actually once Ms. Narmada heard of my mother's death she came looking for me and suggested that I stay here with her. But I didn't want to bother with it so I contracted and worked sideways. Besides, Ms. Narmada often sends me money, although I don't want to, but she always has a way for me to take it."

Arsen did not expect that Novian would be this open to him. Novian's response and his answer were beyond Arsen's expectations. Though Arsen was ready with Novian's sharp gaze and cold words. But these?

"You're great, if I'm in your position I'm not necessarily as strong as you. But aren't you planning to reconcile with your father? It's been 10 years Nov." anyway." Arsen asked him. Maybe this is too privacy and looks too meddling in other people's affairs. But Arsen's mouth immediately asked what his heart was saying.

The moment he heard the word 'father' made a change in expression on Novian's face.

The kitchen is a bit of a horror. Ryan looked at his sister filled with an intimidating look. Snagat. It was as if Ryan's eyes were almost out.

"Now say, Iza. Why did you come all of a sudden?!"

Iza glared in disbelief at the question her sister asked. "Are you really my brother? What the fuckyour question? As if it's not good to see me here, don't you miss me?"

Hearing Eriza who chattered because of Ryan's silly question made Zacky who had been silent giggled amusedly. She acted as if the scene in front of her was a comedy drama between sister and sister. Zacky's giggling rang out in Ryan's ears making him turn his head.

Zacky chose silence and enjoyed the meal. He let the brothers in front of him let each other miss.

"Sttt kak patiently calm down. I'll answer them one by one. First, I came here to continue my schooling here. Second, why am I with Brother Zacky because I don't want you to know that I will be here so before leaving I've contacted Brother Zacky. Third, I didn't call because I was afraid that you might ban me. Fourth, Mother's father didn't know I was here." After answering in detail and at length Eriza smiled and drank. Take a lot of breath because he answered quickly. Zacky gave a smile and thumbs up to Eriza. "Great."

"Wait, so Mom's dad doesn't know you're here?" Ryan seemed to be connected to Eriza's barrage of answers and felt that something was bothering her mind.

Eriza rolled her eyeballs and replied lazily, "That's because of you. Instead of continuing the family business, even set up a restaurant. So Dad told me to study business in Holland to help him. But I didn't want to, so I reasoned to go on vacation and secretly come here." Ryan just shakes his head.

Eriza ate her food and felt that her sister's cooking was really good. "Hmm it's appropriate that you set up a restaurant. Brother's cooking is delicious."

"No need to bribe me with compliments. I'll tell Mommy." Ryan took his phone and prepared to call her. But his hand was held by his sister. Staring at him expectantly for his brother to undo his intentions.

"Sister....Come on please. I don't like that business world. Just like Brother who also does not like business, Brother instead set up his own business. Come, my brother understand yayaya..." Eriza blinked her eyes displaying her flagship puppy eyes. He knew that his brother loved him very much, so he would easily get along with Eriza's whining.

Ryan who was shaken by his sister just sighed. Seeing his sister's face it felt like he really wanted to throw her to the edge of the sea. Finally he put his phone back.

"Hmm fine if so. But you have to study properly here understand?"

"Uh." Eriza nodded steadily. Looking at Zacky in front of him and smiling triumphantly. The two sat down in front of Ryan.

The closeness of Eriza and Zacky has been established since Ryan met Zacky in High School. When Zacky plays at Ryan's house, Eriza spontaneously accords with Zacky. It was as if he had two older brothers guarding him. But it made him parted ways with his two brothers because they followed his parents to the Netherlands. But now he had returned and was with his two older brothers again.

Not that the closeness between Eriza and Zacky exceeds the friendship and affection of sisters like Ryan and Eriza. Their relationship is purely friendship like Ryan and Zacky. Eriza does love her sister so it always sticks to her. That's why he and Zacky are also getting sticky like brothers.

"It's you two. Oiya, then are you planning on continuing where your school is?" Ryan told Eriza.

"Uhm at the old school sister." Eriza answered him steadily.

"All right, tomorrow we'll be there to take care of your move."

"Ah no-no not tomorrow. Give me a week's rest first. My journey is exhausting." Eriza's face made melas mengharao mercy. He spread out his hands after which he stood up and ran as fast as lightning to the second floor. As soon as he reached the stairs, he stopped and looked at Ryan, "Big brother." After saying that Eriza gave Ryan a flying kiss and continued running towards her room. He has missed his soft bed so much for 5 years.

Just Ryan and Zacky at the table. They both stayed quiet for quite a while. Zacky had not finished enjoying his meal. He really enjoyed the comedy in front of him.

"Hei Ky, why did you obey that boy. Why didn't you call me hm?"

"I just obey him. Iza called me yesterday anyway. He said he didn't want you to know, so I just kept quiet." Zacky sniffed his shoulders as if he was innocent. But he is innocent. He was just following the wishes of his friend's sister.
