Adrian, Ayunda and the mother take turns to meet the father who is being held, until the case is heard.
It is now the mother's turn to enter, to meet her father. She sat down with her head lowered, without greeting her ex-husband. A sense of awkwardness began to envelop them, because almost 13 years they had not met.
"How are you, Mother?" asked the father to open the conversation, after they had been silent for a while.
The mother shifted anxiously. "Ehm, ba-good", he replied still awkwardly. "W-What are you?" ask her with a trembling voice. The father was shocked, because the ex-wife no longer called him father.
"Oh, I'm good" he replied softly. "Looks like you're really good, you look a little fat." The father laughed crisply, making the mother look up. "And still beautiful" he said, still laughing. The mother looked down again in embarrassment.
"Dad can, yes", he replied. Strange waves felt by the father, when he heard his ex-wife called him father again.
"Thank you, Mother."
The mother looked up, trying to find answers to her ex-husband's statement. "For what?" tanyakanya.
"Because mom still calls me father" he said with tears in his eyes. The ex-wife was crying too. A sense of haru enveloped them, because of the divorce they both did not want.
"Time of visit is over!" exclaimed the prisoner guard.
With trembling the father held the hand of his ex-wife, but the mother immediately dodged. He again grieved to see the reaction of his ex-wife, he thought that the former still hated him.
"Come on. It's over, Mom!" yell out the guard.
"Wait a minute, sir. Not for 1 minute."
The officer finally gave him extra time. "Okay, just 1 minute!"
"Dad, sorry. Mother did not mean to reject father. But mother wants us to refer, first", he said with a smile. The father smiled before the officers brought him back in.

"Whose house are we going to, brother?" ayunda asked by popping her head from inside the car, after the car glass window she lowered.
Adrian looked at Ayunda with a happy smile. "Let's go, let's go in first", take her in, and step out of the car, followed by the mother and Ayunda.
"Whose house is this, brother?" asked Ayunda who had been curious since, but Adrian never answered. He walked leisurely, walking his feet through the gate. Ayunda and the mother also entered. Ayunda walked by stomping her feet, upset that her sister had not answered her.
"How's the house?" adrian asked when they were home.
"The house is good, brother." Ayunda circulated her gaze while nodding. "But whose house is this? From now on, I didn't answer Yunda's question!" he yelled annoyed.
Adrian smiled happily. "This is our house!" adrian girang sahut. Ayunda and the mother turned at the same time, then looked at Adrian to ask for more explanation.
"So, we're gonna stay here, brother?" ask Ayunda to make sure.
Adrian walked up to Ayunda with his head. "Yes, how's the deck, you like it?" tanyakanya.
Ayunda nodded quickly. "Like it, Brother. Yunda can make a garden in the back. If in the apartment you see only the wall", he replied.
"Good, if Yunda likes it. What about mother?" Adrian turned to his mother for his opinion.
The mother smiled looking at her two children who were looking at her. "Mother would love the choice of the children of the mother", reply the mother.
"Thank you, Bun." Adrian answered with a smile of happiness. "From today onwards, we will stay here" he said, as Ayunda had just activated her phone.
"Hem, okay, brother. I'll get my clothes done!" Ayunda said it by making a movement like a patriot, so that the mother and Adrian laughed together.
Drrt.
"Just give it a shot, deck. Yesterday you telephoned him. Maybe there is something important he wants to say", said the brother.
Ayunda shifted the green button on her phone nervously. "Ha-hello", he said.
"Finally you picked up my phone. Where is yunda now? Why isn't your phone active from yesterday?"
"Battery out", he replied in a flat tone.
"Oh, thank goodness it's okay. But where's Yunda? I was at the door of the apartment, it was an hour waiting, but no one opened the door. Are you not home?" Ferdo kept asking a lot of questions.
"Hem, we're outside" Ayunda replied.
"Where? I'll be there soon!"
"no need. I'm gonna hang up. Bye."
"Yoon... "
The call was cut off before Ferdo finished his speech. Ayunda began to slow down while inching backwards, then he sat on the sofa in the room. His eyes began to heat up, and finally the water in the eye fertilizers that had been restrained earlier, fell wet his cheeks.
"Prophey yes, deck" said Adrian.
Drrt.
His phone rang again, but Ayunda ignored him. It even directly deactivates it, before changing the number.

"Ehm, it's okay, son. Earlier, I was less careful, because I didn't see the road" she said like a frightened person. His eyes kept on him, like he was looking for someone.
"Thank God, Mom. Is she chasing someone?" Ayunda asked as she followed the tail of the mother's eyes.
The mother nodded quickly. "Oh, not son. I was just in a hurry, only", she replied a little nervously. But Ayunda continued to pay attention to the look in the eyes of the mother who was like a frightened person.
"Mother don't be afraid. Tell me about Yunda. If there is someone who is chasing mom, Yunda's goods can help", he said gently, which made the mother speechless while thinking about something.
