My Soul in Grandpa's Hands

Happy News

After three days in Yogyakarta, Devan and Aleta left the car at Sukoharjo's house. Using a private jet, they returned to Bandung to settle various family affairs with a flight from the city of Solo. Devan seemed very happy, despite trying to invite mama Kinara to stay in Bandung with them, he was not willing.

Rolland picked them up after returning home from the office with Asep's sir. From the trip out of the airport Husein Sastranegara he was angry constantly.

"Sister Devan please say brother-in-law. The more days continue. Going is a plan, not leaving responsibility without prior confirmation" Devan said while driving.

Devan casually responded to Rolland's rant, instead hugging Aleta and leaning his head on her shoulders.

"I'm sorry we are Rolland, because there is family business, finally my brother accompanied Devan mas to leave you" said Aleta who was rather unpleasant. Devan is just smiling.

"There is a sudden business what sak in Yogyakarta, and it seems like yesterday you went to take a car. Now where's the car." asked Rolland.

"Yes Rolland, later we will tell yes as long as there is grandfather Cokro and papa Atmaja. His car was left at Sukoharjo's house, mas Devan has been able to drive continuously for four days."

"Rolland, we accomplished. Let us rest, don't bother us. Asep...., take us straight to grandfather's house." Devan said.

"Yes, Great Lord, that's my brother-in-law, the Boss is in action." said Rolland.

"I'm sorry Rolland, your brother again. Understand four days on a self-driving trip without Driver's help." Aleta smiled in response to Rolland.

After Rolland was silent, Aleta closed her eyes and rested her head on Devan's shoulders.

The atmosphere that night in the Cokro family room was very stressful. Devan and Aleta's departure to Yogyakarta without saying goodbye, and not wanting to contact or be contacted made Cokro's grandfather angry. Atmaja who felt that he gave them the address of Yayuk, also could not explain to his papa. Rolland who from the beginning no one informed him, just silently digested everything.

"Certainly what you produced with your trip to Yogyakarta, do you not think what you left in Bandung without any notice" said Cokro with red eyes.

Aleta seemed to be downcast, for the first time to be in such a situation. Devan clasped Aleta's hand, and after a moment of silence.

"Devan and Aleta to Bandung looking for the whereabouts of grandfather's mother." said Devan who made Rolland wide in shock. While Atmaja and everyone looked at Devan and Aleta.

"What are the results of your search. Is it difficult to just write a message via chat on WhatsApp to tell you where you are."

"Grandfather to gather some grandfathers to look for the two of you, fortunately you immediately call to send a private jet to Solo. Think, that from your reckless actions, many people you harm." Grandpa Cokro kept scolding them.

"Grandfather.., forgive us yes cake. Especially Aleta who is wrong, does not prohibit Devan mas but instead follows him everywhere. But we are grateful cake, we get a lot of new information that is very happy to the heart of Devan" said Aleta reply to the words of Cokro's grandfather.

"You are not wrong Aleta, it is your duty to accompany and take care of your husband. Grandpa's not mad at you, kid, but just reminded me of Devan. He is over 32 years old, it is no longer the time like a teenager." said Cokro.

Devan just smiles at his grandfather's anger, then he pulls out a few photos from inside his bag. Fortunately while in Sukoharjo, he had printed out some photos. Looking at the photos, Atmaja with trembling hands took one. He looked at the picture on the paper, and looked at his son.

"Image of who this is Devan, Aleta." asked Cokro firmly.

"She pictures mama Kinara grandpa, mom bladder mas Devan. Thanks to information from Aunt Yayuk, we managed to meet my mother and family in Yogyakarta. Forgive us cake, just now tell." said Aleta bowed.

"Just a minute, please explain what's going on in our family to Rolland. Mama Kinara, real mama, who is it all." Rolland asked suddenly.

"Rolland, I will tell you everything that is happening to our family today" Atmaja said, trying to calm his second son.

Finally Devan and Aleta told all, what drove them recklessly to travel to Yogyakarta. One by one they told me in turn, about the whereabouts of mama Kinara who is still alive, Hapsoro's grandfather and the family of Aunt Kinanti. Even Maman Kinara who until now did not want to marry again, also all delivered.

Hearing the story, Atmaja tears his eyes and daydreams. He still imagined when Kinanti brought Devan's baby, and delivered him to their house which is now being occupied by Rengganis. Because at that time, they were going to Singapore to continue their studies, so they took Devan there.

Returning from Singapore, he also came to Yayuk to get the address of the tomb from Kinara, but Yayuk always said that he himself did not know. Now, his son and son-in-law are carrying photos and news that his first wife is still alive. He felt like a dream back then, many times he hit his cheek.

"Devan, Aleta ..., Grandpa doesn't know the story of any of this. Atmaja, you're the only son I can answer and explain." exclaimed Cokro.

"Papa..., meaning who is the mother of Rengganis," asked Rolland.

After a while, Atmaja seemed to wipe away the tears that had flowed down his cheeks.

"Papa.., forgive Atmaja papa. In the photo that Devan brought was a photo of Kinara Atma's wife before marrying Rolland's mother, Rengganis."

"But Kinanti's sister Kinara, when Atma was about to leave for Singapore had delivered Devan's baby to the house in Cileungsi. She said her sister Kinara was gone. Atma tried to find him information, but there was no news of Kinara and his family pa." finally Atmaja recounted the events thirty years ago.

"Devan. Papa was too whiny at the time to make a decision. Papa followed grandfather's wishes."

The atmosphere of the night was increasingly quiet, Cokro repeatedly massaged his forehead. While Rolland's face still looked confused, and Atmaja was still surprised by the fact that Kinara still existed in this world.

Realizing the age of Cokro's elderly grandfather, Aleta then takes hot tea and hands it to Cokro's grandfather.

"Grandfather drink first yes, forgive us cake. Aleta is sure, behind this all there will be wisdom that we can take the cake."

Cokro looked at Aleta's face for a moment, then drank a mouthful of water.

"Grandpa just rest first yes, the important thing is we have all gathered again in this house cake. Hopefully today can be a better start, for our family in the future yes cake" said Aleta.

"Aleta, take grandfather to the room. Grandpa wants to rest first, and you're Atma.., explain everything to your two sons." said Cokro, who then led Aleta to Cokro's grandfather and took him to rest in the room.
