The next day, after returning from his pilgrimage. Marshall was invited by Aisyah to gather with her family in the family room. Marshall complied and sat down near Hana, then Aisyah approached her omana who had since seemed to dislike seeing Marshall here.
Aisyah touched the hand of mama Soraya and looked at the face of her mother who still looks beautiful despite her age is not young anymore.
"Why baby?" Looking at Aisyah confused.
Aisyah pulled Omanya's hand and asked to follow her to approach Marshall who had been silent since.
Mama Soraya sat on Marshall's left side, while Aisyah sat on Mama Soraya's lap.
"Oma, last night Oma had promised that Oma would love Abang," said Aisyah and made Aries, Hana and Papa Erik look at her.
Mama Soraya nodded her head little at the grandchild.
"But Ais look, Oma still doesn't like to see Brother, Ais gets sad." Aisyah bowed softly.
Mama Soraya sighed softly, then smiled looking at Aisyah's face.
"Oma likes Marshall, Oma doesn't hate Marshall either."
"lik! The proof is Oma looked at Brother angrily," interrupted Aisyah.
Mama Soraya was silent, it turned out that her grandson was very sensitive. Aisyah then touched Mama Soraya's arm and stroked her.
"Oma, I'm begging you. Oma don't hate Brother, pity Brother, now you don't have Mama. Ais once felt like Abang in staying away with papa and mama Marisa does not like Ais, but Ais still loves mama Marisa. Ice doesn't hate it either. Papa also taught Ais, to be a good boy and to love each other even if that person hates Ais."
Mama Soraya was touched by Aisyah's words, despite her young age but her granddaughter was very wise to react to it. Mama Soraya embraced Aisyah affectionately and buried her lips on Aisyah's forehead.
Aries, Hana and Papa Erik are very proud of Ayesha. The three of them smiled at Aisyah who was able to make Mama Soraya's heart touched by her words.
Mama Soraya then looked at Marshall's moody face, and stroked Marshall's head.
"Sorry Oma yes" he said sincerely. Marshall nodded slowly while looking at him.
"Here, the seat is sliding," said Mama Soraya, and Marshall. Mama Soraya then hugged Marshall from the side.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't hate you. While you are innocent, the wrong thing is that your parents and Oma have no right to hate you. I'm right, if we should love each other. From now on, you are Oma's granddaughter as well as Ais."
Marshall could only shed his tears, and Marshall could feel the sincerity of Soraya's mama.
"Don't be sad, we will always be there for you. All of us here will love you" Soraya continued.
"Thank you for accepting Marshall and loving Marshall" said Marshall, now in Mama Soraya's arms.
Aries then grabbed Hana from the side and rubbed Hana's arm.
"I'm proud too" Aries said, kissing Hana's head.
***
Two weeks have passed, now Marshall is not so sad. Although the longing for his parents will not be eroded by time. Marshall had started to show his cheerfulness because Aisyah was always with him and always comforted him.
Marshall is grateful that the Aries family considers him to be his family, especially Aries and Hana who already consider Marshall as his son.
As it is today, Aries takes his son and wife on vacation to a very beautiful island.
Marshall and Aisyah's cheerful smiles continued to lie on her lips while playing sand on the beach. Both are currently making a palace out of sand. Aisyah and Marshall laughed together because they managed to make a very good sand castle.
Aries and Hana just monitor it from the beach while laying his body in a long chair made of wood.
"I'm happy to see the joy of the children, what else Marshall is not so sad about losing his parents," said Hana who was in the Aries.
"Yes, may Marshall always be happy living with us. I even plan to adopt Marshall as our son. What do you think, honey?"
"I agree, bay. I have also loved Marshall dearly and have considered Marshall my own son."
Aisyah ran up to her parents who were relaxing on the beach.
"Dad! Come play sand together."
"Okay dear," said Aries with a small laugh.
"I'll go with the kids first."
Hana nodded while smiling. Aries immediately followed Aisyah's footsteps who had already returned to the place earlier.
All three make again a better and bigger sand castle. Their laughter continued to sound loud and their happiness was deeply felt. Hana who from a distance continued to photograph the three who were playing together despite the hot sun so stinging their skin.
