Melati started to be afraid to hear Aaron's voice which showed anger.
"Listen, since Bondan's baby lived here. He grew up normal like any other child. He has no abnormalities. You think I can't take care of that kid? I'm his father!" aaron Sentak. He sat straight and looked at Melati without a blink.
"Eh, sorry, that's not what I mean, sir. I just want to help so Bondan can..."
"That's why! Do I believe you people with money want to help the destitute like us?! To squeeze our energy which is. To make us babu, no matter how hard people live like me, to look alive but dead, to feel dead but alive!" continued Aaron. Aaron's emotions were clearly exploding.
"Sir, I don't mean..."
"Until now Bondan will stay with me. It's enough her mother's gone, but I won't let her go." Aaron stood with his hands clenched. "My son is none of your business!"
Jasmine gulped her saliva. Well, it's even a rampage on the father.
"Get out!" jolt Aaron while pointing at the door.
Melati. "Excuse me, Sir. Good day."
Melati left the house with a sad heart. He can't speak properly like he. It made Aaron angry. He could not imagine how Bondan would be the target of his anger later on.
He ordered the motorcycle online and went home. That day was not Melati's schedule to train the kids. With this condition also Melati feel the mood is not good. It must be training so it won't be as usual.
Arrived at home Melati immediately took a shower. Then he checked his HP. There were a lot of calls from Elvan. He has no interest in calling back. There was a chat in Melati even reluctant to open it. He feels so tired. Some time after lying down Jasmine fell asleep.
"Mel, let's get up. Jasmine... " Sawar wakes up Melati.
Jasmine opened her eyes and sat down. "It's late in the afternoon, Mom?" said Melati.
"There is Elvan ahead" said Sekar.
"Hmmm..." Melati answered lazily.
"You got a problem?" ask Sekar.
"She said something to Mom?" said Melati.
"Yes. He can't stay with you for long. Talk to him. You guys have been dating for a long time. Do not get used to drag on letting the problem," said Sekar.
"Yes, Mom," said Melati.
"Wash your face first. Don't see a girlfriend still stinks of jigong." Just stand up and get ready to leave Melati's room.
"Mother..." Melati pressed her lips. Just getting out, Melati followed behind her. He went to the bathroom a few minutes later to the living room.
"Mails..." Elvan greets Melati.
Melati sat across from Elvan. He was still lazy to respond to the guy. His face looked straight ahead.
"Look at that was my college friend. We'll both go ahead in a few days. He asked me to read his thesis to edit the writing. That's it." Elvan begins to explain the situation between him and Melisa.
Melati did not comment.
"Mel." Elvan started to frown.
"But what I saw was different, El," said Melati.
"You saw us from far away. And what you see is not the truth." Elvan.
"That's it. I still want to be alone. Don't bother me. And I won't bother you either. Okay?" jasmine toilet.
"Mel. Do not things like this actually inhibit," said Elvan.
"Why don't you understand me? You guys aren't sensitive," Melati's inner. He stared straight at Elvan.
"alright. If that's what you want. I'm not gonna bother you. I'm waiting for you to be ready for us to finish this. Just pray the thesis trial will be smooth." Elvan standing. "I'm home."
Elvan approaches Melati and kisses the top of Melati's head. Pretty long. Melati remained silent not budging. Elvan left the house in a state of confusion. I don't know why he couldn't understand Melati this time.
Inside, Melati cried without a sound.
"El, I miss you." she whispered. Wants him to chase after Elvan and hug her. But somehow he didn't get out of his seat.
Until days later Melati and Elvan had no contact at all. Elvan completely fulfilled what he said, not bothering Melati. And Melati is also still hesitant to start communication with Elvan again. Actually Melati had already thought about what Elvan said, what she saw was not like the reality. But he was a little embarrassed to admit it. He's waiting for Elvan to start again, whether it's chat, phone, or come and talk to him.
In order to divert the tense atmosphere between them, Melati thought about how she helped Bondan. Since the failed meeting with Aaron, Bondan has only once come to the House of Garuda. When Melati asked if he was hit, Bondan said no, because he brought enough money for his father.
"So he would be happy if he had a lot of money. It seems like his weakness. But if I collect a lot of money so that Bondan can I bring it is the same as trading Bondan. Ahh, that's against the rules. If I ask for adoption, it's not possible. Ouch. dizziness..." Jasmine shook her head gregetan.
"What's up, huh? Was there an accident?" inner Jasmine. Out of curiosity he rinsed the motor, parked it and approached the crowd.
The voice of a father was angry. It turns out, it was Aaron and Bondan!
"The child does not know it is lucky! It can only be difficult! At this hour you want to run away and not want to work?! You want to be a brash kid??!!! Huh?!!!!" And that little face was slapped hard.
Melati was shocked incredible. Bondan until staggered. Jasmine quickly knocks the men and holds Bondan. He's got Bondan on his chest.
"Stop!" yell Jasmine. He was also astonished that the people around him were just watching without doing anything.
"You again!!! You are causing my son to become a dissident!!" Aaron snapped at Melati.
"It's inappropriate for a father to force his son to work like this. He should have protected his son!" I don't know which power made Melati dare to challenge Aaron.
"Dine the boy!" Aaron tried to pull Bondan. But Melati first hides Bondan and behind him.
"No. I don't want to!" refute Melati.
"You're nobody. Why are you meddling in my business?? The boy is mine. You have no right!!!" reply Aaron.
"Every child belongs to the state. The state reserves the right to protect it from acts of violence and crime." Melati tried to suppress Aaron.
"Well.haa...." Aaron laughed loudly. "Country?? Bullshit country!!! Since I was born where there is a country that loves me to eat!! Not even to feed my son. I'm the urusss!!! He already knows how to find the right money I told him to help me work. Understand, Miss Rich?!!!"
"Money. Okey... Money you want." Melati took out her purse from her bag. He took out several hundred thousand bills and gave them to Aaron.
"I changed Bondan's money today. These. I'm taking him!" said Melati.
Aaron just glared towards Melati. Melati can't wait. "Please take it, or you get nothing. I keep bringing Bondan," said Melati firmly.
"You think I'm this..."
Jasmine throws money in her hand. He can't wait anymore. Aaron was shocked and immediately picked up the scattered money.
Quickly Melati pulls Bondan, takes him on the bike and leaves from there. He didn't care about Aaron screaming in anger anymore. The purpose of Jasmine is the Garuda House.
Once up to Melati immediately bring Bondan to be treated. He was also hit on another part of his body. Melati asked Lidya for help to see Bondan's condition.
Bondan looks scared. He tried not to cry. He grinned a few times as Lidya treated his wounds. His cheeks started turning blue and there was a small bloody wound on the tip of his lips.
Melati chose to go to the bathroom and cry there. His heart was very angry about all this. If only Bondan's problems could be solved soon. After being satisfied to cry, Melati returned to meet Bondan. Lidya had finished treating him. The boy is eating now.
"Bondan, what's going on? Why did your father get so angry?" ask Melati.
"He needs money again. He lost a game a few days ago. I wanted to come here, but I got caught when I left. So you are angry with me" said Bondan Iirih. He looks calmer now.
"You just stay here. Here you are safe" said Melati.
"Mr how?" ask Bondan.
"How's what?" now it's Melati who doesn't understand Bondan's words.
"He will be alone. He often cried when he remembered Mom. He also doesn't always get a job. Dad, how about I stay here?" said the boy.
Melati is shocked to hear what Bondan has to say. He was still thinking about his father after everything he had received all this time.
"Bondan, you shouldn't be treated like this. The child has no obligation to work to give money to his parents. You're still too small. Your job is to school well, develop yourself for your ideals" said Melati.
"Your father is a grown man. He knows what he has to do with his life. Don't worry," added Melati.
"Is it okay for me to be here?" ask Bondan.
"of course. This Foundation and Garuda House are your home. You know friends here, right? They are also children whose lives are difficult. Some never knew their parents at all. This is their family now" Melati replied.
Bondan looked at Melati's face. He always felt safe when near Melati. Sometimes he imagined his mother would behave like this for him. Dare to defend him, protect him from his father when angry. Where's mom now?
"Later you'll find me at school, brother," said Bondan.
"Hmmm. I'll think. After all, you have to stay in school" said Melati.
After talking to Hadi and Lidya, they agreed that Bondan would be escorted and picked up at school. They'll talk to the school to keep an eye on Bondan so that only the people from the foundation will pick up Bondan.
While Bondan's situation can be resolved. Jasmine a little relieved.
