THE NEGLECTED ZAHRA DIAMOND

Chapter 18

"Honey, your father must go home, otherwise you will not be able to see him again" said Zahra, making Lika slowly release her embrace

"But I still miss my father" he replied sadly

The girl looks so sad to see Dirga's departure, of course it makes Dirga also feel sad to see her.

Not only did Dirga heavily leave her daughter but Zahra also grieved at the sadness on her daughter's face.

Ivory who was also watching them from a distance immediately approached Zalika when he saw Dirga had left Zahra's house.

"Well, I'm really kangen, are you the same dad?" tanya Ivory

Zalika immediately nodded affirming Ivory's words.

"You want to hug papah?"

Again the girl nodded as Ivory again asked her.

"If so you can hug Om, consider this Om your papah,"

"What if Om wanted to be Lika's papa?" zalika answered back asking

"You dong, who wouldn't want to have your rich and beautiful daughter,"

"If so, Om should stay here with Lika,"

"Oh ready," replied Ivory immediately hugged Zalika

"How about Lika now go for a walk?"

"Where?"

"Where is Lika going to go for a walk?"

Zalika was seen scratching her head, "Where if we play to the park, but Om must carry Lika on the shoulders," replied Zalik

"Ready, whatever the request of the servant princess is ready to carry it out," Ivory then squatted and Zalika directly climbed on his shoulders.

They then walked towards the city park which was a good distance away from where Zahra lived.

Zalika's grief makes Zahra and Ivory try to comfort his daughter by inviting her to tell stories along the way.

Ivory stopped his steps in front of the ice cream shop. He bought three ice creams and continued his journey to the city park. Along the way Ivory began to tell funny things to make Zalika laugh to hear it.

Seeing the smile on her little princess's face made Zahra a little relieved. At least Ivory managed to drive away the turmoil of Zalika's heart that missed the figure of his father.

*******

That afternoon Zalika tried to contact Dirga, like his father's message he tried to contact him because he wanted to meet him.

But even though he contacted his father many times, Dirga still did not answer his phone.

"Dad lied, said I could call him anytime, but why didn't he answer my phone" Zalika grumbled

The little girl then thought of meeting Dirga in her office.

"Why I don't see my dad at work, I'm sure he must be busy so he can't see me. All right then I'll come to dad's office to help him," Zalika stopped a taxi.

As a Genius child, it was not difficult for Zalika to find Dirga's workplace.

"Where are we going on deck?" ask the taxi driver

"Bahri Group tower" replied Zalika

The driver nodded then turned the car towards the destination address.

Upon arrival at the Bahri Group Building, Zalika immediately went down followed by a taxi driver who deliberately followed him because he had not paid his taxi fare.

"What was your father's name?"

"Bahri Dirga,"

The driver then asked the receptionist to call Dirga Bahri to pay for his daughter's taxi fare.

Not long Dirga came out and looked surprised to see the arrival of his daughter Zalika.

"Dad!" zalika immediately ran to embrace him

"Dear, wait a minute, I'll pay your taxi fare first,"

Finished paying the cost of his daughter's taxi Dirga immediately took Zalika into his room.

"Why do you come to my father's office, how will you?"

"I miss Dad, I told you the same thing about Om Gading if I wanted to see you here, anyway,"

"Om Ivory?"

"Yes Om Gading is his friend, he said he wants to be Lika's father,"

There was a disappointment in Dirga when he heard his daughter's words.

"Why don't you get permission from me?"

"Because Mama would disagree, she would have forbidden me from seeing Dad. But if Om Ivory he never gets angry he always permits me if you want to see my father as long as I tell him," replied Zalika

Ivory, I seem to have heard that name, is he a man who is close to Zahra?

As the two were playing, Merry suddenly entered the room.

Seeing Zalika in the room made the woman scold her immediately.

"So rightly said by Delia, all this time you turned out to secretly meet the disabled child!"

"Mother please take care of your words, can you choose more subtle words when talking to my daughter. He's a normal kid, not a cripple!" dirga Sahut

"Normal from where, there is a normal child who behaves like him. Even though he has many achievements, he will never change his nature as a disabled child or an abnormal child!" merry Sahut

"Now quickly throw him out or I'll drag him out of this office. I don't want people to know that he's a descendant of the honorable Bahri family!" hardik Merry's

"Enough mom is enough!" exclaimed Dirga was so upset with the temperament of his mother who always dominated his life

"I'm sick of everything you did to me, I was forced to abandon my son and wife because of you. But now I realize, if the treasure does not always make my life happy," said Dirga immediately carrying Zalika and left his mother.

"Dirga wait!" merry chased him straight after him

"If you dare to leave this building, then I will cross your name from Bahri's family card, I want to see if you can live without money and position!"

"Remember Dirga love is only temporary, indeed Zahra will still love you when you have nothing, do not be stupid to use your brain!" exclaim Merry

Dirga stopped his steps, when he heard his mother's words.

Seeing Dirga stop makes Merry immediately pull Zalika down from Dirga's sling.

"Hey you, listen to me carefully, don't ever come to my son again just to get sympathy from him. Just so you know you're not his son. There's no way a perfect Dirga Bahri could have an abnormal child like you, so don't see her again or I'll teach your mother a lesson!" exclaiming the woman made Zalika immediately cry bitterly

"A genius like him doesn't deserve to be the son of a coward like Dirga Bahri. And just so you know if Zalika is a normal child, it's just that abnormal is you. How can a woman who feels herself honorable but can't use the right language when talking to a child. You should have taught him good words instead of using harsh words on him, is that normal??" dirga exclaimed in emotion as she watched Merry treat Zalika harshly

He then carried the boy and took him away from the Bahri tower.

Meanwhile, a journalist secretly covers Merry's cruel actions against his grandson to headline news in all online and television media.
