"Did you think Ardy didn't know what Papa was doing out there on business, Pa?"
Mr. Karyadi pressed his palm on Ardy's shoulder.
"What do you mean, Dy?"
"Papa don't pretend to be confused, I know Papa can answer honestly. But there's another reason Papa deliberately hid it from me, right, Pa?"
"Don't this kid know about the pranks I did?" ask Mr. Karyadi in Heart.
"Papa don't understand at all, Dy?" Mr. Karyadi pretended not to know.
Ardy kicked his leg, "Don't understand? Ardy's grown up, Pa! Remember that! Ardy already understands which voice Papa is honest and not. Even if Papa does not say directly, but .. Papa's attitude is what we have been meaning, Pa!"
"Papa really doesn't understand what you mean."
Ardy scratched his head withstanding the growing annoyance. The young man stood up from his seat.
"Look while Nola's late mother was alive. Now ... What about Mama?" Ardy raised his voice tension, "what's Papa been doing all this time? What responsibility does Papa have to see their lives that are getting out of Papa's control as a family leader?"
"Papa's been advising Nola and your Mama, Dy. But ... they themselves are not willing to listen to Papa's words," Mr. Karyadi tried to defend himself but at the same time relieved because the estimates about the secret of his pesugih are still unknown to the children and workers at home.
Ardy looked into Mr. Karyadi's eyes, "That's because Papa himself has a personal life out there, Pa. Playing in pseudo-pleasure with acts that God forbids. Papa has forgotten God!"
"Arm ... !" mr. Karyadi's palm swung quickly and was ready to land hard on Ardy's face, but he regained consciousness and held it for a moment.
Ardy smiled wryly.
"What's? Papa's gonna slap me, right? Do as I have always received from my mother. Go ahead! I'm not gonna retaliate, Pa!" Ardy brought his face closer, defiant.
Mr. Karyadi immediately lowered his hand.
"Why? Papa doesn't want to hurt me physically, but Papa's attitude has been torturing me a lot of what's inside, Pa!" Ardy pointed at his own chest.
"I'm sorry Papa, Dy." Mr. Karyadi bowed.
His face suddenly glum. But that's not really what's behind the old cranium, he's worried that the boy will run away from home when his soul has been ordered by the dog-headed creature in the future.
Mr. Karyadi hugged Ardy's body tightly while weeping in pretence, "I'm sorry Papa, Dy! It's all Papa's fault that he's too busy with his own business to forget all of you!"
"At least don't let you walk away from me until Mbah Jerangkong picks you up later, son! Because your presence is so much I need for my survival and all the riches that exist ... "
Ardy returned the embrace of the parents he had loved all along. The young man did not know what exactly was being planned by the man who had been considered his father.
"Return like our old lives, Pa. I miss him so much .. " said Ardy accompanied by sobs that can no longer be dammed.
Mr. Karyadi nodded, "Yes, Papa promised! Papa will try to correct the mistakes that have happened. As long as you want to help Papa make all that happen."
"Of course, Pa. With pleasure."
Mr. Karyadi let go of his embrace.
Ardy nodded slowly.
"May the same thing be done by Mama, yes, Pa!"
"We pray for you, Dy! Papa loves you," said Mr. Karyadi.
After holding back for a moment, Mr. Karyadi rushed to his bedroom to meet Madam Amanda, leaving the figure of Ardy still standing in the middle room.
The young man looked very tired after a night of interrogation at the police station as well as taking care of Nola's body, until he also drove him to the cemetery.
The funeral of Nola and Mang Kurdi was colored by sobs of the residents who attended and attended there. Rumors began to sound.
The news about Mr. Karyadi who underwent the assignment began to spread in the surrounding community. But no one dared to speak carelessly or just show their hatred on the figure of the rich man. They are afraid they will be made into a collision.
Sarah and Mbah Suko's family were also present at the event.
"I'm so sorry for what happened to your sister, Nola, Dy ... " Sarah approached Ardy after the mourners left the cemetery.
Ardy took a quick glance at Sarah who was standing right beside him.
"Thank you, Sar!" ardy replied, "but .. without meaning anything, please leave me alone here for a while. I want to be alone ... "
Sarah looked at her grandfather, Mbah Suko, hearing Ardy's words.
Mbah Suko crossed his index finger right in his old lips, asking Sarah to no longer invite Ardy to speak. But the girl still hesitated. He was eager to convey his grandfather's request that Ardy would come to his house and talk a lot with Mbah Suko who is none other than Ardy's own real father.
"If you need someone to talk to, just come home, yeah, Dy! Coincidentally my grandfather wants to talk to you .. "said Sarah just before he left the figure of Ardy who was still silent with his sobs.
"I'm sorry, I told you .. I want to be alone first, Sar!" ardy firmly without looking at Sarah in the slightest.
"All right, Om! I'm waiting outside this cemetery, okay?" Sarah put her foot up.
"Om ... ?!" muttered Ardy puzzled, "what does Sarah mean to call me that name?There's no way he could have said that to his grandfather. Didn't he come here only accompanied by his mother and Mbah Suko?"
"Sar ... " Ardy exclaims.
Sarah stopped her steps followed by her mother and grandfather.
"What's up, Dy? You want ... "
"You call me 'Om'- don't you?"
Sarah surprised. The girl suddenly nodded.
"Oh, no. I called Oom I was outside the complex .. "for Sarah to lie to cover up her silence.
Ardy squinted his eyelids, "Oom you? Didn't you just come in three with your mother and grandfather, Sar?"
Sarah and Mbah Suko's mother looked at each other.
"Ah, forget it, Dy! We'll talk about it when you come to my house, okay?!"
Sarah quickly pulled the arms of her mother and grandfather to leave Ardy before the young man asked further.
