My Soul in Grandpa's Hands

Elfin

"Opa...., opa why?" axel shouted to see Broto's opa lying with a lot of equipment on the old man's body. Hearing his grandson's cry, Broto tried to smile, and Devan immediately brought Axel closer to the bed where Mr. Broto lay.

"Axel.., good boy. Stay with Om Devan and Auntie Aleta. Because opa will soon per.gi far away." gasped for breath Mr. Broto while trying to communicate with his grandson.

Aleta couldn't bear to see it, tears running down her cheeks. Axel immediately sat Devan in a chair right in front of his op bed, and behind him Aleta held and stroked the boy's back. Axel sobbed to see the condition of his op, and while holding one hand of his op, Axel put his head on it.

"Axel.., Axel sa. So. lah, the boy I.at, is not whiny. Axel wants jan.. ji with opa?" stammering, Broto is still trying to advise Axel. The boy was obedient, though in tears, Axel listened to the advice of his opinion.

"Son De.van., son of Ale.ta.," Broto called Devan and Aleta.

"Yes, Mr. Broto.., we are in front of you" said Devan, moving closer to the middle-aged man.

"I leave Axel.., pa..da. Choose.kan seko.lah, set the future.nya!" Devan held Broto's hand.

"Sir Broto.., you rest first. You don't have to worry about Axel's condition. He will safely stay with us, now the important Father must recover soon, get well soon!" devan said encouraging Broto.

"No. that's me su.dah picked up. I'm going to calm down, ji.ka Axel is in good hands. Anggoro....!" mr. Broto suddenly called out the name Anggoro. It turned out that he was a trust lawyer Mr. Broto, who accidentally invited Ridwan to attend the hospital that afternoon.

"Yes Broto sir, Anggoro is here." Anggoro immediately approached to the place lying broto sir.

"Ba..kidakan!" said Mr. Broto starting to get weak.

"Good sir. Good afternoon everyone, my lawyer Anggoro will read the will requested by Mr. Broto Kusumo. In the first point, the house in Dago was handed over to Rico, and the house in Lembang was handed over to Ridwan the second foster son of Mr. Broto. Furthermore, the company was intended for Axel Prahasta, but while waiting to be 17 years old, management was left to Rico and Ridwan with supervision from PT. Anugerah, Tbk, and every decision taken must get approval from Mr. Devan." Anggoro continued to read the core points contained in the will.

Devan and Aleta were surprised, because the name Devan and his company became the supervisor of the operational activities of the company Mr. Broto, which later after adulthood will be handed over to Axel. But they chose silence, because the important thing is Mr. Broto soon recovered. But after Anggoro finished reading the will, Mr. Broto asked Aleta and Devan to approach him immediately.

"Son De.van, son of Ale.ta, please get it.jui ask.an Mr. So that you can see." finally saw the gasps of men his age, Devan finally nodded his head, followed by Aleta.

"Axel.., mere.ka berdu.a seka.rang is your parents. Be obedient with Om De.van and Auntie Ale.ta." holding Axel's cheek that kept crying, Broto spoke.

Not long after, Mr. Broto took a deep breath, but not until the completion of the monitoring machine on the top side already displays a flat graph. Seeing that, Devan swiftly lifted Axel and held him, Aleta cried sobbing.

"Call Doctor Rico, it looks like you've calmed down different from us!" devan said slowly. Ricp immediately ran out of the room, and Devan immediately took Axel out of the room.

"Opa.., opa.., Axel wants to be with opa Om Dev. Axel wants to accompany opa!" axel shouted while crying roaring. Devan asks Aleta to sit on the sofa, then hands Axel over, and goes back inside.

Aleta kissed Axel's cheeks with a sense of motherhood. He held Axel in his arms while sitting down.

Not long after, doctors and nurses ran to Mr. Broto's room. After the examination, Mr. Broto was finally declared dead.

*********************************

Axel accompanied by Aleta looked still crying hugging the grave of Mr. Broto who looks still red. Arend and Arick sit beside the cemetery accompanied by Atmaja and Kinara. While Devan stood with Aleta and Axel while holding an umbrella in his hand.

"Auntie.., Axel's here with opa. Poor opa, sleeping in the ground" Axel said softly as he sobbed.

"Axel dear, remember what the opa message was yesterday dear? Must be strong and strong, and be a good child. In addition, Axel must obey the same advice auntie?"

"Now we go home first, we have to do a lot for opa. If Axel loves the same opa, must be strong, and show the opa if Axel is a strong child" said Aleta.

Axel looked at her face, he saw Aleta and Devan. Aleta smiled as she tried to wake Axel up, fortunately Axel was a submissive child. After standing up, Devan immediately picked him up and took him out of the cemetery.

"Axel.., we are always together now. Because Mommy and Daddy said, Axel lives with us" Arick said.

Axel looked at his friend.

"Arend and Arick, would you mind if Axel took Mommy and Daddy's affection?" asked Axel innocently.

Arend and Arick looked towards his Mommy and Daddy, and upon seeing them both nodded.

"By Axel, because we only share Mommy and Daddy. Now we are all family. Come on.., **give me five!" **

Finally the three boys did a tos in the car. Then Aleta gave them bread and UHT milk to prop up the stomach. Seeing the twins greedily eating bread, Axel finally received and sucked UHT milk then bit the bread given by Aleta.

"We go straight home, sir, or is there something to look for first?" ask Mr. Asep.

"Just go home, sir, we'll take a shower. If you want to go out tonight, let the kids rest first!" sahut Aleta's.

"Non Good."

Devan immediately rested his head on the car seat, he had started to breathe a sigh of relief because Axel was able to interact again with his two sons. He then closed his eyes, because from yesterday until today he was busy taking care of Broto's funeral. While Aleta, full of motherly nature seemed to accompany the three boys playing in the car.
