Past Times

The departure of Johan

" Dad! Chadi's not a kid anymore." Chadi protested as Johan wrapped his hands around Chadi's stomach as he was about to sleep.

" I want to enjoy a time like this, when you're growing up I don't know."

" Yes, it's up to you."

"Achi."

"Hm"

"Is it true that many men approach your mother?"

Chadi replied with a nod of his head." Keep on letting those men woo your mother"

" Mother also deserves to be happy father."

" But happy your mother is just like Dad."

Chadi turned his body and faced his father. Before he spoke to his face, the father who had just met him. Chadi held onto Johan's soft cheek.

" You already have a family, so don't make Mother Chadi a destroyer of father's happiness. Chadi was so grateful to meet my father."

" Chadi's father is a good person, Chadi is proud of that, Chadi please do not force Mother Chadi, mother deserves to be happy even though not with father."

Johan was silent, he just looked at Chadi and hugged him.

' Your 11-year-old age you're a real grown-up boy, I lost your childhood moment.'

"Sleep, you go to school tomorrow." Johan hugged Chadi in his sleep.

'Your mother will be happy with your father and you.'

After driving Chadi Johan school directly to the house of Laras, there is Rudi and his two daughters there.

" Assallammualaikum." Johan

" Wa'alaikumsallam" Laras immediately came out to hear the voice of a guest. But Laras clumsily sees Johan there.

Saras who had been out also got a signal from Rudi to go back in so they could talk to each other.

" Later in the afternoon I'm going home Laras, I'll talk to Rossa, I want her to let me marry you." Johan said after a few minutes in silence.

" I don't want to ruin Rossa mas's happiness, like this is enough for me."

" Please wait a minute, I beg you, I never break a promise to you."

Laras smiled, a smile that had long paused than usual, "Just seeing you like this I've been happy mas,"

" That means you still love me."

" Indeed my love for you was lost due to my hatred for you. But I know I was wrong. That love can come again at any time because you and I have a strong liaison, Chadi."

" May I have your phone number, Laras?"

" I don't have a mas, I don't need anything because all my family are very close to me. . . But Sigit's got it."

Laras walks into Saras' room and asks for Sigit's phone number, after getting it Laras gives Johan a piece of paper that reads Sigit's phone number.

" It's not for me or you, it's for Chadi so you can communicate smoothly, he deserves your attention."

" Don't call uncle dong," Johan opened a chat with the little boy.

" Keep Sasi should call what dong?"

" Chadi call your dad what?"

" Dad is the same as Sasi."

" Then call me Dad is the same as Chadi called your dad."

A smile emerged from Sasi's lips, "Can you? Vaaaaahhh. . . This sasi seneng, have a handsome new father again."

Johan smiled hugging Sasi.

" Dad!, a child like Sasi was still being contested "Chadi protest who had heard Johan talk earlier.

" It's so bad you're Chadi."

Chadi approaches Johan, and Johan hugs CHadi. " Dad go home first, keep your mother safe until someone approaches her."

" Yes. . ." Answer Chadi. " You take care of yourself" Chadi said.

Johan bangkiy from his position and looked at Laras. " Wait news from me Laras."
