My Soul in Grandpa's Hands

Oma and Mama

Axel came to Aleta who was in her study. Today he has arranged an appointment to meet with Lastri and Maurin. They will talk about the results after they think about the options Axel has to offer.

"Momm.., Axel go first huh. Any appointments with Oma and Mama?" Axel asks Aleta's permission to see her family.

"Where's the meeting, baby? If Axel invites your brother how, well at least can not be invited to chat. Later if you have met Oma and Mama, Arend or Arick asked to wait elsewhere." Aleta could not cover up her worries by letting Axel go by himself.

"Ga pa pa ya Momm.., if Arend and Arick both accompany Axel?? Mommy doesn't have to worry about Axel, nothing will happen to us." with a smile Axel gave a kiss on Aleta's left right cheek.

"Yes, ga pa pa. Be careful, dear. Where did the twins Mommy didn't see him?" Aleta looked into their study, but did not see the shadow of the two of them.

"There's behind Momm.., it's MABAR.., Axel immediately ajakin them." Axel went straight to the pool to call his two brothers. Before long the three of them were already beside Aleta.

"Mommy at home first yeah, Cynthia's coming soon. Arend just sent him a message via WhatsApp." Arend and Arick also start saying goodbye to Mommy.

"Okay.., take care of yourself. For your safety, there are two guards that Daddy sent to watch over you. So don't worry, there's someone following you."

"Well Momm. He said Arend was going to drive Momm, he had a good grip on the steering wheel." said Axel.

"Yes., remember obey the signs, you no one has a SIM. If there's anything, call Daddy right away."

Aleta drove her three sons until they got into the car.

Maurin looks restless while stirring lemon tea with a straw. Lastri looked at his daughter's movements while taking a breath

"Maurin.., I hope there is no more commotion between you and Axel. Moreover, Axel also already knows who you really are for him. There's no need for us to lie to him about his status, it's not gonna end well." Lastri advised her daughter.

"But what's the benefit for us ma?? After all, Axel is also more on the side of the Devan family, rather than with us who clearly have a blood relationship with him." Maurin still answered with a thump from Lastri.

"Mama's getting confused with your way of thinking, Maurin. Try now you think as a parent, do not think like an ABG child who is always looking for attention. Do you feel you have given the right for Axel?? Who's fulfilling it, Devan's family right??" Lastri talked high with Maurin.

Maurin was silent, his gaze he pointed out the restaurant where they were currently sitting while waiting for Axel. He saw people walking behind the translucent glass.

"Mama doesn't want to hurt my granddaughter anymore. Mama's regret is, mama chose to follow you abroad and left papa and Axel. If that time can still be turned back, then mama has left you." Lastri resumed his sentence.

"Mommy regrets accompanying Maurin??" maurin asked with tears, hearing her mother's words.

"Conscious Maurin.., put down your ego! Axel is a victim of our selfishness who wants to have something that it does not belong to and our rights. Mama's been thinking, how will the boy be, if he's still with us. Gratitude mama always say, with her mother Aleta can accompany Axel to be a better person." Lastri praised Aleta in front of her daughter.

Both of them were silent and immersed in their respective thoughts.

"Good afternoon... Oma.., Mama." suddenly Axel's voice was heard beside the two of them.

"Axel Oma's granddaughter.," Lastri immediately hugged Axel who was still standing, then kissed the young man's left right cheek.

"Mom.." Arend and Arick who accompanied Axel reached out his hand to invite Lastri to shake hands.

"You're Devan and Aleta's twin sons, who always accompany Axel?" asked Lastri with a smile.

"Yes Oma, they're Arend and Arick. Axel's brother." Axel answered his question.

Lastri received their helping hand, and happily shook the hands of the two. Arend and Arick then also invite his mother Axel to shake hands.

"We moved to sit there, Oma, want Mabar first." politely Arend asked permission to find a seat.

"It's okay Oma, later our voices can interfere with the conversation. We went there first, didn't we?"

Arend immediately pulled Arick away from them.

"Very polite kids. Aleta was good at educating them and my granddaughter Axel." muttered Lastri as she looked at the twins.

"How are you doing Axel?" asked Pastri gently with his grandson.

"Alhamdulillah good and healthy Oma. Axel who always expected in every prayer, Oma and Mama are also all in good health." Axel replied, while putting French fries into his mouth.

"You're praying for Aunty and Axel?" ask Maurin, who can already digest the words of Lastri.

"Sorry mama, Axel prays mama and Oma is not aunty. Because Axel only has Jenny's aunty, her aunty the twins. If mama Maurin is mama Axel, then Axel prayed. But if mama Maurin feels just as aunty to Axel, apologize never said in Axel's prayer." words that Axel uttered severely hit Maurin's heart. With tears in his eyes, Maurin hugged Axel

"I'm sorry Mama Axel.., I'm your mama not your aunty." sobbing, Maurin apologized to Axel. Axel hugged his mother tightly.

Lastri happily looked at the two while shedding tears. After a while.

"Oh yes Oma.., mama. Axel came here, to ask about two choices that Axel had conveyed some time ago. How's decision??" Axel recalled the two options he had offered to Lastri and Maurin.

Lastri was shocked, then he looked at his daughter Maurin. Seeing no response whatsoever from Maurin, finally...

"Oma's choice is that we will unite into one Axel family. No one will choose. You are Oma's only happiness for now, and Oma also doesn't care about all assets or companies owned by Opamu. It's all yours." Lastri hugs Axel back, she is too reluctant to part back with her granddaughter.

"Oma...., forgive Axel!! Whatever choice Oma and Mama chose, it would not be Axel leaving the family of Daddy Devan and Mommy Aleta. That's also the trust from Opa. But Axel will try to put Axel as a grandson of Oma and also as a son of mama."
