The next morning, Amira opened her smartphone. There were a lot of short messages coming in from Avie's sister. It seems Avie's sister is worried about Amira's disappearance in the middle of her party. Here's the message.
''Grandpa, where are you? Brother look everywhere not. Mother wants to talk to you about something. Deck, you're home anyway? How in a hurry? Brother has something for you. Good night to sleep."
Amira cries a sigh. He thinks no one cares about him. He forgot, there is Avie's sister who always cares about him. Amira wiped her tears from the river because she heard the knock on the door.
Whafs-tok... Immediately Amira opened the door. Albert, that Indo-Japanese youth who was knocking at the door smiled widely. He came to take Amira breakfast before returning to the city of Jogja.
"Come on Amira." Albert held Amira's hand. Amira nodded. He doesn't want to look like a fragile person.
"okay."
In Amira's mind, he wondered. What do you want to say? Why am I in such a hurry to go home?. Amira laughed at herself to the point of not paying attention to the road. He accidentally hit Albert who suddenly stopped. Jdukw*
Amira retreated slowly. "Eh, why stop?"ask Amira. They arrived at the elevator, as the restaurant was on the ground floor. All the elevators in the hotel are full. So, they had to wait a while to take the elevator.
After the elevator is empty, Amira and Albert also some visitors enter the elevator. Amira is the first to take the elevator. He felt himself being sucked in by the gravity of the earth. So he squatted touching the elevator floor so as not to fall or scratch.
Seeing Amira's 'shameful' behavior, Albert pulled Amira's hand and held her tightly. "Don't be afraid." whispered Albert. Amira nodded slowly. His fear slowly dissipated, alternating with comfort.
The elevator opened, they rushed to the restaurant inside the hotel. Restaurant for the classy, of course. Albert ordered his favorite Japanese specialties while Amira ordered Nusantara culinary food. It attracts the attention of those around them.
Maybe people think they are a couple who stay at a hotel after a vacation all day. Their guesses strengthened as they continued to join hands.
''Amira, take care of your attitude.'' whisper Albert to his girlfriend who is fascinated by the luxury of the restaurant. Amira nodded, her lips rounded, annoyed.
The hotel owner's aunt who greeted them yesterday suddenly came over. ''Doctor Amira.''call him. The visitors pretended not to care. The aunt asked permission to join them.
''Yes?''Amira rubs her lips with tissue. The way he eats is messy. The hotel owner's aunt shook Amira's hand while introducing herself.
''My name is Ichigo Kitagawa. I am native Japanese. And the one with you is my son, Albert. I am Albert's mother said Aunt, the owner of the hotel, none other than Albert's mother. Amira notices Aunt Ichigo and Albert's face alternating. Nothing is similar. Amira is pouting.
''We are not similar. But Albert was right my son. Yes khan Albert?''Aunt Ichigo assures Amira that she is Albert's mother. Albert nodded.
''Mother who never came home.''Albert confirmed with a cold look. Amira feels there is a dispute between the mother and the child. But Amira does not want to disturb their relationship.
''Tante said what?''ask Amira. He continued eating. Listening to people's explanations while eating is not good behavior.
''Auntie is impressed with you. Yesterday A said you were leading the operations team. Youngest surgeon I've ever met.I can ask for a signature and message effect?''pinta Aunty Ichigo. He took out his favorite notebook and a gel pen.
''I'm not that good as Auntie. I can thanks to the help of doctor A and team mates.''
''Sorry Aunt, I don't have time for this.''Amira refused. Aunt Ichigo looked disappointed, she asked Amira to sign only. Albert mediated them for being so rowdy.
''Can you guys stop?''
...****************...
Amira came home with a shunt. His steps came to a halt when he saw a pick up car in front of his house. Two people wearing uniforms one of the shops looked confused.
''Is this Mr Trian's house?''ask one of them to Amira. The name of the person who made Amira sick and wanted to vomit. The name of a man who had abandoned him for years and abandoned his responsibilities so that Amira became the person she is today.
''This is an order from Ms. Avie. Said he was told to drop her off.'' The officer delivered a check of the goods that Avie's sister had bought. If Kak Avie buys goods from Semarang and delivered to Jogja means Kak Avie intends to occupy this house again. Amira is not lonely anymore.
''Oh, yeah, yeah. My sister. Please Mr-Bapak enter into the living room.'' Amira unlocks the house wide so that the furniture can be carried to the living room.
After all, the fathers said goodbye.
Amira contacted Avienya but did not get a reply. It made Amira's heart upset. Is his hope of becoming a whole family just empty wishful thinking?

All answered with the arrival of minibuses. Go down some people who are none other than Amira's family. There is a Father, Mother, Stepmother and her three children, Kak Galang and her small family, Kak Avie and her husband, Galih, Citra, and the Trian Family.They carry bags and suitcases.
Instead of approaching, Amira locked herself in the room. Amira was crying. He was disappointed to feel neglected.
''Amira! Amira! Out no!"call Bayu alternately with Kak Avie and Kak Galang.
"Wouldn't go out?''ask mba' Novi. Azam chattered in his arms. ''Grandpa, Mother is looking for you deck. There's something important he wants to say."Mba' Novi alim persuaded Amira. Convincing success. Amira opens the room door.
''What are you guys doing? My job as a doctor is done. I deserve to be a teacher, right?'' Amira folded her hands. The four Amira brothers looked at Amira in astonishment.
Galang immediately attacked. ''Well, there is no time to talk about the past. Mother only needs you, Mir. We didn't.''
Amira had to fulfill their request. Finally Amira spoke four eyes with Mother in her room first. Amira.
''Amira Amana. Now I remember your name, doctor. You are Mother's proud child. It may be because we have a lot in common, said Mommy starting the conversation. Amira was silent listening.
''Son, many years since Mother girl, Mother bought shares along with the three Mother sisters. We are both building a business. Mommy hooked a lot of acquaintances to run a business...''Mother's story is followed by a weak sigh.
''Then, each of Mother's sisters built their own business. Finally, Mother with friends expressed the pledge that our efforts are the best. It makes Mother's sisters harbor envy. Though they have a lot of free time than Mother.''
Amira raises an eyebrow. His suffering was nothing like the suffering of his mother but why did he give up so easily?
''They do not know, why Mother can stick with many men even sometimes the nights we contact each other. Mother accused of cheating by Mother's family...
So on that day, a strange disease undermines the health of the Mother. All Mother remembers is you son...'' Mother shook Amira's body. Amira sobbing.
''Continue your education and hold the shares of Mother for your tuition fee. Look to your future with a triumphant smile.'' Amira nodded.
''Mommy.aku, I don't have a boyfriend yet said Amira. All his friends left him.
Mother shook her head, her smile was engraved. ''The girlfriend is only blocking your big dream.''revealed Mother. Amira nodded. He made his resolve like a man who wants to fight.
Seriate....
