"What's this?" a voice interrupts the acting show of the nameless who is exploring the role of a grandson.


The grandmother broke her arms and looked at her husband. "He's our granddaughter pa, this son is our grandson!" he said he hugged the nameless again, of course the nameless one was happy.


"really? Can she remember anything?" the grandfather asked him why his wife was so sure that the child was their grandchild.


The grandmother stared at her husband. "I'm sure that this child is our grandson! He also said he felt like a man gave me this necklace!" the grandmother showed him the necklace she still held. "Unfortunately this child could not see the man's face" the old woman continued sadly.


"Don't think about it, your health will deteriorate." the grandfather patted his wife's shoulders gently.


"Well, little master, get well soon, don't make your grandmother worry and get sick, yeah! From now on, remember your name is Rama, you are the only little lord in this house!"


The nameless person who had a new name starting today nodded quickly. "Okay, big sir!" he showed off a big smile, looking very excited and happy, in fact it was just a mere act.


"Rama, call him grandfather instead of great master!" said the gentle grandmother.


"But the old man called me little master, so I also called the great master's grandfather, Grandpa." the grandfather laughed at his grandson's innocent words.


"Smart kid!" praise the old man happy.


"Rest, tomorrow we move to your room, yes." The kind and gentle grandmother also helped Rama lie down.


"You too, take plenty of rest to heal quickly!" the grandmother continued before she left the room occupied by the fake Rama and the real Rama.


"Let's take a break like grandma said," asked the nameless who is now Rama while smiling kindly.


"I wasn't sleepy yet, but my eyes hurt" the boy replied.


"Hmm, later if the doctor checks, don't forget to say that it still hurts."


"Well," he replied.


Rama planned to make the child next to him continue nearby, it was done so that he could keep watching and make plans just in case the child one day remembered about his true identity.

"Pa, how about the boy who came with Rama? Should we find the kid's family?"


Grandpa nodded slowly. "If there was a family looking for it, there would have been news about it that we heard, right? We'd better let him stay here to play and accompany our grandson Rama!"


"We forgot to give him that name, pa."


"There is still tomorrow, for now we rest first!"


The couple took a break, in their hearts, they promised, they would do anything to make their only grandchild happy. They were really sorry, why they used to stubbornly oppose their child's relationship. If that had not happened, they would have lived together and accompanied their grandchildren. Unfortunately, the word would never have been real. Everything that has happened cannot happen again.


"I hope there's only happiness for Rama when this day is over!" said the sincere grandmother.


"We will try to redeem all and make our grandchildren happy for as long as we can!" keep the grandfather. Both nodded in unison. Yeah, that's what they have to do in the future.
