"Jang!" exclaimed Abi stared in shock. The man saw clearly someone he was looking for holding a toddler into a taxi.
"Pras, follow that cab, I'm sure it's my son and my wife!" abi was sure.
"Any master, overtake or follow?" ask the man while driving his car.
"Follow Pras, don't lose track of him. I want to know where he lives" Abi said.
Abi is afraid Ajeng will run away or avoid himself if suddenly approached. The man was also afraid to accept the fact that Ajeng was married again. Now Abi just wants to hug Ruby, miss the very figure that separated when he was a baby.
Fate has brought them into a different place. Pain if you remember it all, hope that Ajeng will forgive himself even if the circumstances force them no longer the same.
Abi's car continued to follow the taxi in front of him until it reached a house in front of which appeared a shophouse. Ajeng entered it, the woman passed the side door that immediately penetrated into the house. The cover of the house was deliberately designed for small businesses and workshops.
"Can I help you?" ask a copyan photo clerk at the place.
"Mmm .. sorry Ma'am just to see a woman enter carrying a toddler through this side entrance, stay here?"
"Owh ... Ajeng Ma'am?"
Hearing his name called Abi it felt like it was no longer bad and his heart trembled. Means it is true that Ajeng and the toddler who was carried earlier must be Ruby his son.
"Yes Ma'am, right, stay here huh?" ask the man to make sure.
"Yes Mas, this is his place of business, the same workshop next door, we are employees," explained one woman quite clearly.
"Thank you, Ma'am, I didn't just visit" Abi said, really impatient to hug Ruby immediately.
"Right!" call Abi who is still in his place.
"Mas Abi?" the young man was a little surprised.
"You just got home?" asked the man again looking at the man next to Hanan appeared to be carrying a hand that seemed like a toy.
"Eh yes, let's go in sir!" hanan's interruption to a man Hanan respected enough in his college.
Hearing that Abi was a little wondering, who did the man. On what basis is the importance of visiting the same place. Whether for Hanan or even not to Ajeng.
"Mas Abi wants to see Ruby? Bentar Mas, I go inside first," said Hanan inside.
After Hanan's death, leaving two adult men who were both silent sitting on the sofa while waiting for the host to come.
"Mas, it doesn't seem like this guy, does it?" asked the man in front of him looking friendly familiarize himself.
"Yes, from Jakarta Mas, Mas itself, would like to see—"
"Owh .. I happen to pass by often. I had the intention to play here before going to college," replied the man smiling.
While Hanan went inside, he went to his brother who had just given Ruby medicine after coming from the clinic.
"Sister, where's Ruby?"
"Sleep, just take medicine," Ajeng replied as he moved.
"Outside there is Pak Harsa and also his father Ruby," Hanan said awake.
Ajeng who had just nodded his head intended to meet staring at Hanan was quite shocked.
"You mean?"
"Still remember, I thought I forgot I had a child. If I choose not to see him how? Ruby was sleeping, I was lazy to look at her face," Ajeng replied reminiscing about an old wound. His heart still hurts when he remembers it all. Why should it appear at a time when the woman is a little calmer.
"How will Pak Harsa? They came to the point of wanting to meet you both, no matter what version."
Ajeng becomes upset himself. But the woman must prepare her heart. Ruby had the right to meet her father no matter what her current feelings were.
Ajeng finally met into the living room with a tray containing two cups of warm tea. Before moving, first strengthen his heart so as not to be mistaken. Ajeng did not like to be visited by a lecturer man at his sister's campus. Neither is the interest of visiting her ex-husband.
"Sorry, has it been a long time? Please drink the tea," Ajeng said.
Abi's eyes could not be separated in the slightest from the gaze of the woman who was still so tightly stored in his heart. There is a sense of happiness, of crying, of longing, of tempest, of blasting into one. When possible, it is desirable for the man to pull his body and then carry it in his arms. It's a shame not to have that courage. Trying to hold back with a slightly claustrophobic heart.
"Lumayan, thank you for being such a hassle, which Ruby?" ask the man who knows the toddler.
"It just so happened last night to have a fever, just went to sleep taking medicine."
"Ruby's sick?" sahut Abi fast.
"Yes Mas, already taking medicine, is now sleeping, if Mas wants to meet, can come here again after waking up," replied Ajeng trying to be ordinary.
The woman tried to refrain from bringing feelings in this kind of situation. Moreover, Ajeng knew, the man beside him was the husband of people.
"Pity, just leave this for Ruby, I happen to have class this afternoon, say yes first, later God willing if not come by again," the guy's saying goodbye should be filling up class this afternoon.
After the death of Pak Harsa, Abi and Ajeng were seen silent for a moment, before finally Abi who first opened the word.
"May I see Ruby, I miss her so much?" pinta Abi looked at the woman he loved so much.
"Just get into Mas, don't build it up later fussy, pity again fever."
Abi had not yet moved, the cry of a toddler was heard from inside. Abi and Ajeng simultaneously moved up to meet the doorway together.
"You go first, Ruby's fussy!"
"Are you still alone? Who was that guy?
Instead of answering Ajeng went straight inside. It looks like the toddler is being soothed by Hanan.
"Wake up Brother, if the heat is shocked," Hanan reported.
"It's a bit hot, I'm just carrying," Ajeng said, taking Ruby out of bed.
While Abi approaches, understanding with glazed netra. Staring at the little boy who still did not know very well the presence of his father, who might have missed the toddler.
"Ruby, my dear son, this is my dear father, let's carry papa, son, papa miss," said the man approaching with a trembling voice. He crouched down, then wanted to grab his hand. Unfortunately, Ruby did not understand, and was even afraid to see a foreign man in front of her to cry.
"Honey, forgive papa, darling, forgive papa, don't be afraid baby, papa just wants to hug you, papa misses," said the man teary.
