Eyebrow and Parents Meeting

After driving Al to his house, Aldo immediately moved to find the address given by Arya. About 23 minutes later, he found the address. He nodded in wonder, this house felt familiar. He stared once again at the humble house surrounded by flowers.

"Isn't this the Eyebrow house. Then why did Arya give me this address? What's the matter?"

Aldo stared around the house that looked very quiet, he was so curious about the figure named Syaiba. After feeling long enough he observed the house and there was no movement at all. Aldo drove a car towards his house, it felt impossible to accept this reality. But, is it possible that Alis and Syaiba are brothers. People's eyebrows are very closed, so it's difficult to dig out information from them.

Aldo was again confused, he wanted to pry more detailed information on his parents. Didn't his parents know Syaiba and his family very well. But wait a minute, he has brothers and parents, while Alis is a person who lives alone.

After all, Aldo felt frustrated because he continued to compare the figure of Syaiba and the figure of Alis, which according to the story of Arya and her parents, they both clearly see the difference.

"Aldo, why you baby?" Arini approached her third child with worry, as Aldo entered the living room. Unlike usual Aldo behaved this way with a messy outfit.

"Ma, tell me the figure of Syaiba, what is he really like?" Positioning his seat facing his mother, so that he can read the look on his mother's face while talking.

Arini smiled sweetly while looking at her son. So, this was a troublemaker of his son's mind who was usually cold and silent but now looks messy and chaotic.

"Mama and Dad first met the figure of Syaiba in an orphanage. At that time he came with many books, food and toys for the children's home. He was so warm and loving figure to the orphanage children. Even he also became a teacher for the children of the home, also very fond of reading stories to them" said Arini at length while remembering Syaiba's expression filled with smiles.

"So, according to mama that the figure of Syaiba is a cheerful and smiling person?"

Arini looked at Aldo who looked so curious.

"Yes, that's it. You'll know for yourself later, when you've met the person in person."

"Then, what about his brother, did you know him?"

Let this time Aldo ask a lot of questions, he was so curious about the version of his mother and Aryan version of Syaiba. Is it the same person or a different person. Or Arya who has given the wrong address to him.

"His brother is named Riyan, the owner of Fawwaz Corp who has long worked with your father. She loved her sister very much and as you know, they lived together. While their parents live abroad, take care of their business there."

"Then, what about Syaiba?"

Arini seemed very enthusiastic to hear Aldo who asked a lot, surely he was very interested in the figure of the beautiful girl. His heart cheered happily at the thought of all that.

"She's a busy girl. Busy with school. The last time you saw him, he was eating in a cafe with his brother. She is also a very polite, firm and smart girl."

Aldo nodded his head. It turns out that his assumption was true, the figure of Alis and Syaiba was a different figure. Maybe Arya was just mistaken in writing the address. All he needs to do now is find the figure of the girl at his own school.

"Aldo went to the room first, cleaned up."

Arini nodded as she stared at Aldo's departure up the stairs to head towards his room on the upper floor.

Eyebrows are busy with January in his office, he also studied some files that they will discuss at the meeting tomorrow.

"Lis, sign here." point in January while handing over a map to Eyebrow.

"About 30 minutes we'll meet someone." Looking at the clock in his hand. "We'd better get it done now and go straight to the destination." Staring at Alis who just nodded. He saw Alis who this time was professional when he first entered the office, although this morning he experienced silent mode but did not seem to have an effect on his work pattern. It seemed, he was able to put his feelings on the right situation. Really great leader.

"Where are we going?" Eyebrows stared at January who had already entered the elevator.

"Then you'll know for yourself."

Eyebrows nodded in understanding, he went back to silence and did not bother about it anymore. If January has said that, it means that Alis is only silent and obeys.

Without a word, they entered the car and went on a journey that went nowhere. Only January knows.

The journey they took only 20 minutes. They have come to the building of a house that is quite magnificent and Eyebrows feel foreign to the house.

The towering high fence looked open and a security guard looked to nod respectfully at January, as if they did not feel familiar with January.

Who is the owner of this house and why January seems to know the owner very well.

Eyebrows were aghast as January patted him on the shoulder and told him to come down.

Eyebrows look silenced around the spacious yard and much overgrown with orchid plants and red roses. Reminds Alis of the figure of her stepmother who loves her very much. Then, how was the woman doing now, was she fine after the Eyebrows disappeared from their lives.

"Alisa!!"

Deg.

That voice, why did it appear to call his name just because Alis remembered the figure of his mother. Maybe his delusion was too high until he heard a real sound in his ear.

"Alisya, mama miss you son."

His eyebrows turned around as he heard the same voice but with different words. He was very surprised when the figure of the woman who had given him his affection first, was standing in front of him. Eyebrows petrified, without being able to do and say anything. He could only remain silent while staring at this half-life woman in front of him who was already filled with tears. The woman slammed into her arms hugging an Eyebrow that did not respond at all. Eyebrows look dazed and just silent like a statue of a mannequin.

"Alis, this is my dear mother. Mama misses you." Gently stroked both cheeks Eyebrows and re-hugged her very tightly.

Eyebrows awakened from his daydream, this was neither a hallucination nor a shadow. But it's real, it feels so real. This hug was as warm as the hug in the past. But the movement of Eyebrows was completely invisible, he just remained silent with a blank look.

"Here we go home first." Shakila wiped away her tears that were constantly melting on her cheeks. Now, his longing and heartache have been treated. He was happy to see the attitude of Alis who was silent and did not rebel at all. However, he also felt sad when he saw only the blank stares given by his daughter.

"Alisa..." Bastian was standing right in front of his door, watching everything that had just happened. His regret grew stronger when he saw Alis who did not respond at all and only gave his blank look to his mother, whereas formerly Alis was so familiar and spoiled to his stepmother.

Eyebrows again silenced when they saw the figure of his father who stood before him and stretched out both hands to ask Alis to embrace him. Eyebrows remained unmoved, he stared at the nanar figure that was in front of him. His memory goes back to the past, the times when his father kicked him out without listening to his reasons first. The sight of Eyebrows grew increasingly empty and blurry even darkened. He did not realize what happened next after he faintly heard his name being shouted by some people.

Eyebrows collapsed from shock with a shock he had never imagined before. Although the desire to meet his parents is very strong in his mind, but his courage to look directly is very weak. He is often overshadowed by fear of rejection and fear of disappointment.

This shock was like a time bomb scorching the consciousness of Eyebrows. I don't know what will happen next when he wakes up from his stupor.
