The Destined Soul
Chapter 35 (Family)



Tonight the wind was blowing quite hard, as if it would rain along with a great storm. The cold weather penetrated, entered through the glass window, AC travel did not fully cover the entire room of his car. All passengers were asleep in the car. At the same time, Indah also began to sleepy, because the journey is still long to get to Jogja. The girl covered her head with Hodie's hood she was wearing, then leaned her body and head back.


The car suddenly jumped, all the passengers gasped in shock. They are awake, the highway surface is uneven, it makes the speed of the car uncomfortable. The travel car is still driving, when it arrives a big wind crashing along with a trickle - the water droplet falls quickly to the earth. The driver stopped his car, pulled over, and stopped.


" What is it that stops? " said one of the passengers. Spontaneously all the serious passengers gazed into the dock from behind the glass, there was a fallen tree in the middle of the road.


" Well the wind is strong" they murmured. Beautiful looking for a moment, his bathin agreed with the opinions of the passengers, he then turned to the side, staring out from behind the glass. The rain fell but not so heavy, only the wind blew quite strong, making the atmosphere of the night look alarming, as if there would be a natural disaster.


The driver got back into the car after almost half an hour had passed,


" The wind was very strong, the tree fell, sorry to interfere with travel" said the driver, apologizing because his passenger trip was disrupted.


" It's okay, driver" said one of the passengers. Shortly after, the car drove back.


After driving for 3 hours, the travel car again stopped, dropped the passengers, and at the same time stopped to rest for a while in a rest area, giving an opportunity for those who want to go to the restroom.


Beautiful not to get out of the car, as well as other passengers, they prefer to sleep in the car, to rest their physical activity because of morning to noon today.

I don't know how many hours Beautiful fell asleep in the travel car, once he woke up, there were only three passengers in it. Beautiful looking at his watch, already at 1 am, means soon to arrive in Jogja. Travel cars again stopped, in the Malioboro area, but the house of Indah is still a little far from the place.


" Thank you sir" said the passenger who had just disembarked, Indah had noticed the activity, when the driver opened the trunk of his car and took the bag for the passenger.


The travel door is closed again, when the driver enters, only two people are now on the trip, including Indah. The girl looked back out through the window, when the car began to go again, but only a few minutes, back travel stopped, the last passenger before her was down next to the famous doctor's practice house, even Beautiful had checked in that place as well.


His gaze narrowed, when a luxury sedan stopped, then the person in the car came down, a pregnant woman, followed by a young man, came down from the steering door. The girl rubbed her hands into her eyes, as if doubting her vision now, even hitting her own head with her hands, thinking she was dreaming.


" this is not a dream, why do I see that person is Brother Bagus" he murmured softly,


" When it's right, Mr. Bagus, then who is the pregnant woman, and why did Mr. Bagus get to Jogja "some questions popped up in his mind, curious but also doubtful.

" Assalamu'alaikum" said someone by knocking on his door.


His shop had just closed, and was ready to get into bed. They had to abandon their intentions and walk to the door.


" who? " ask Ida, her sister Nice.


" It's good, bli" replied the voice from outside.


Ida opened the door, indeed who was standing right in front of the door was her sister, with her stepmother.


Ida was surprised, with the arrival of her stepmother, but the man had grown up the way she thought, so it was no longer a problem for her. Although she actually doesn't like their stepmother very much.


" Oh, come in" Ida let them in.


Without hesitation, Bagus entered and then immediately sat on the chair in the shophouse.


" I'm sorry, disturbing the night like this" said Yeni, the stepmother, a little unkind. The 30-year-old looks awkward, this is her first meeting with her husband's eldest son.


"Ehm." answered Ida a little.


Yeni sat in the chair next to which was seated Bagus, looking rather difficult because of her already large pregnant stomach.


" Well, by the way, tumben to jogja this evening? " ask Ida directly frankly.


" It just so happened that we just met a client, and it was good to bring me here. " Answer calmly.


The glamorous-looking woman glimpsed Nice with a little displeasure, then leaned her back that felt hot on the sofa chair.

Yeni's phone rang, the woman immediately answered her call.


" Dear" said the greeting Yeni used, answering her phone.


Good to hear and understand, it must be from his father.


"Where have you been? " , it sounded a little soft from the distance where Bagus was sitting.


Yeni glanced at Bagus, as if his face said, "look, your father called "


Good just to be quiet, it was deliberately allowing all Yeni wanted to answer her. The man puts his shoulders down "it's up to "


"Ee... I. I was at your son's house, Ida, we stayed overnight and it was good to take me to rest here. "


" why not stay at the hotel aja. "sounds a little soft his father replied with a little rough on the phone. Nice smile on tilt.


Yeni was silent, a little afraid of her husband's quarrel with her two all-male children.


" okay, tomorrow morning I'll pick you up" Reply to the man later, and end the call.


Ratih comes as Yeni hangs up the phone, following Ida behind Ratih. The woman reached out, kissing the back of Yeni's hand unreservedly. Yeni gasps in shock at Ratih's actions, but the woman later understands that she is now their mother.


" Rest in the next room, mother" ucao Ratih, allowing Yeni to occupy the room next to her to rest.
