Pursuing Love in the Past

Ayunda Returns to London

"Good morning newlyweds", greet the mother as Adrian and Winda walk towards them in the dining room.

With a blush Winda looked at the mother. "For mother", he said. Then he looked at his father. "For dad.. Morning sister-in-law", he said hello to all family members.

Adrian and Linda sat in an empty chair. "Is your sleep good, my daughter-in-law?" ask the mother when Winda just put his butt in the chair.

"Ehm, there is a slight disturbance of the bun", said Winda who made Adrian choke when he had just sipped a glass of warm water.

All eyes were on Adrian, until the empty glass he had just put down, he lifted back up. "What's wrong?" ask Adrian who started groggy.

"That glass is empty, sis", point at Ayunda with a smile.

"Umm, yes I'm just a fad:" Adrian said as he put the glass back in his hand.

"It's been... It's been.. Let them eat in peace" said the father, who had been silent.

Good thing you helped me, Adrian.

After all the family members finished enjoying the special dishes made by the mother, they also gathered in the living room.

"Yunda", call the father, until Ayunda turns his head.

"Yes, dad", he said.

"Before we have talked about this" said the father by pulling his body from the back of the sofa. Ayunda knitted her eyebrows while looking seriously at the father. "So my father and mother ask that Yunda, can continue to study in this city alone" said the father.

Ayunda was silent for a moment but his eyes were still staring at the father. "Sorry dad... Mother..", said Ayunda while staring at his parents alternately. "Yunda doesn't want to move to this city. But there is a penalty that Yunda must pay if Yunda does not finish college there", he said with a listless bow.

The father looked at his wife. "What do you think of Mother?" tanyakanya.

"How else, yeah. We let Yunda continue his studies, because the shooter has also been arrested. God willing, our Yunda is safe there" said the mother by embracing Ayunda who sat beside her.

"Thank you mother", said Ayunda who immediately returned the embrace of the mother.

After hearing the wife's opinion, the father turned to look at Adrian. "What do you think, son?" tanyakanya.

"Adrian agrees with my mother's words. So just let Yunda finish his lecture, well", Adrian said by pleading.

After thinking for a moment, finally the father also agreed with the opinion of the mother. Then he looked at his cute daughter. "Yuda Perminin Yunda left for London this afternoon" he said which made Ayunda jump excited.

"Thank you father", he said, embracing his father. "Yunda promised, will not go anywhere other than the campus and the internship place" he said then with a serious face.

"Yes, son", said the father. "You're good there!" exclaimed the father while looking at Ayunda who was looking up at him.

Father and mother did not let go of her eyes on her cute daughter who was walking into the chek in room. Ayunda waved his hand as he was about to climb the escalator to the examination site, until the father and mother were no longer seen by the sight of his eyes.

"Come, we go home bun", take the father while turning his body. Accidentally someone hit him from the front.

Brucks.

"I'm sorry... Sorry", said a man who was walking hastily towards the chek in room.

"Dafa" said Ayunda's father when he recognized the man in front of him.

"Once again sorry" he said, clenching his hands.

"Yes, it's okay. Come on, come on, you'll be late" Ayunda's father said, patting Dafa's arm gently.

The airport parking lot.

Adrian's father and mother have arrived at the car park. The father knocks on the car door when he sees Adrian and Winda still in it. Adrian quickly opened the car door.

"Did Yunda leave already, Dad?" adrian asked as his father got into the car.

"It seems not yet, because the departure time is at 1" said the father. "At the same time we also met Dafa when we wanted to go home" he said as he recalled the incident.

"Oo, that's right" said Adrian who was not interested in Dafa. "Is Alfian coming, too, Dad?" adrian asked, because he had informed her of Ayunda's departure.

"What's he coming for!" said the father who did not want Ayunda to meet him again.

Adrian was silent when he heard his father's words. He quickly drove his vehicle away from the airport parking lot.

"It looks like your daughter-in-law is exhausted" said the mother when she saw Winda sleeping soundly.

"Yes, tired all day wearing traditional clothes, bun", elak Adrian with the focus of driving.

"Hem, I said. You are the cause!" exclaimed the mother who managed to disturb the hearing of the father.

"Mother... Why are we still talking about it?" ask the father while looking at his wife.

The mother only replied with a horse's grin. For some reason the relationship between Adrian and Winda is very interesting for the mother.

In the hospital.

Alfian sat pensively waiting for the results of Zahra's examination to be given. Plans to deliver Ayunda's departure at the airport have failed, as the hospital suddenly reported Zahra's condition to her.

"Sir Alfian!" the nurse called him.

"Yes, sus", replied Alfian as he got up from his seat.

"Please come in, sir", said the nurse, carrying the results of Zahra's examination in her hands.

Alfian immediately stepped into the room, and sat down before the doctor.

"What's Zahra's condition, doc?" alfian asked impatiently.

"From the results of our examination Zahra had respiratory problems" said the doctor who made Alfian jerked in shock.

"Will he heal doc?" alfian asked in panic.

"God willing, Zahra will be healed. This happens because Zahra's lungs are not yet fully formed. So Zahra had to be treated for a few more days, for her recovery."

"OK, doc. Do your best for Zahra", said Alfian, rising from his seat, and then saying goodbye before leaving the doctor's room.

Alfian moved his legs towards the incubator room. It didn't take long for him to arrive in the incubator room. He saw a tiny face that was flushed while yawning it. "His grandson" said Alfian with a face of sumringah as he looked at every move of Zahra that managed to attract his attention. "Stay strong, son. Let's meet my mom" he said. Without feeling the crystal feathers fell freely wet Alfian's cheeks. Hurriedly he rubbed it to be invisible to Zahra, he thought.

After 1 hour, Alfian stood looking at Zahra, but there was still no satisfaction for him. If there were no urgent need in the office, it would feel like he was lingering there.

In less than 15 minutes Alfian was in the car park. In a hurry he drove off his vehicle, due to the insistence of Reina who was having trouble facing a guest in his office.

"Should find a secretary who can master foreign languages, in addition to English", he said grumpily while increasing the pace of his vehicle.
