What is my fault, sir?

Bound Only Once Meet

"Tu ... Mister?" Stammered Rania wanted to say something but the distance of Alfian's face was too close. He returned and failed to focus.

"Why don't you think I'm your husband?"

"Rb ... Anu anu rania ...!"

"I also consider you ...?" Alfian did not continue his speech because the sound of the motor came closer to the angkot.

Rania spontaneously pushed Alfian away and wanted to get out of the angkot. Alfian immediately pulled Rania's hand until her body stuck to Alfian's body, "Don't go first, I want to talk to you!"

"Ta .. but sir, Rania is coming down."

Alfian still clasped Rania's hand tightly. With forced Rania could not get off the angkot and silent a thousand languages saw Julio coming closer to the angkot that was near the angkot steering door. Alfian held onto Rania's hand while calling Julio, "Jul .. Come here!" his yell.

"Yes Bang, what's wrong?"

"Do you see the two drivers that were headed here?"

"Yes Bang, they are still behind because they are stuck in traffic when there is a group of grieving families and bodies passing by."

"You keep them here to prevent them from meeting and entering Abah's house until you're done!"

"Ready Bang."

Alfian took off Rania's hand, "Let's go down and meet Abah!"

Rania simply nodded and did not say a word. He only muttered inwardly from where he knew his address and residence. Why can he know about the delusion and the halu husband that is in the heart.

Alfian walks into Abah's house while pulling Rania's hand. Enter Alfian's house without knocking on the door first. He entered as if he had known the entire house for many years. Walking into the house while looking for Abah's whereabouts, "Grandfather ... Where is your grandfather now?" alfian asked while shouting.

Abah appeared and exited the room after hearing a shout from the main door of the house. Looking at the face of a handsome young man who was no stranger to him while holding his adopted grandson.

"A ... Brother Al!" shouts Abah stopped his steps while shutting his mouth.

"Grandfather knows Brother?"

Abah nodded slowly, still wondering why suddenly his granddaughter came in while holding Rania. The grandson he always saw from a distance when he was in Junior High School or High School.

Now not only was Rania stunned, but Abah was also stunned. There was a handsome young man standing between the two. One considers the husband and one recognizes the grandson himself.

"Well know your husband ...?" Rania did not continue her words, closing her mouth so as not to slip further.

"Ha ha ha, has Grandpa heard it himself?"

"Neng Rani, so she's the one Neng considers her husband to be?" ask Abah.

Rania just nodded her head, still closing her mouth. His face was red like a tomato because even though he did not continue his speech but still caught. Alfian could still guess what was on his mind.

"Grandfather, we have been bound even if we have only met once, maybe this is the way that God has shown."

"Grandfather tried to avoid Mami, always stay away from Mami. Brother never knew what exactly was the reason Grandpa, whom Brother knew only Mami had always looked at Grandfather's face from a distance sadly for so many years."

Abah bowed and sat down on the sofa in front of him. Assisted by Rania who is still confused by the current situation. Look at Abah's sad face and teary eyes. Rania could only rub Abah's shoulders gently.

"Change what really happened, what is Abah's relationship with her husband Halu Rani?" rania asked while sitting next to Abah who looked sad.

Abah just took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Almost half of his life has been spent running from the harsh reality of his own actions. It had taken years to eliminate the extreme guilt of his own daughter.

Deciding to live away from her daughter so that there is no bad influence on her. Considered himself the unlucky carrier, considered himself very sinful even though it had passed but his mistake was fatal. Always trying to run away from the reality and bitter experience of the past that always makes him not want to meet his daughter.

There is still one more reason why Abah did not dare and met his own daughter. Besides being in ghost and met even if only in a dream by his wife. Always said father of disobedience, the most hurtful Abah is the money he had received from the dowry at that time, lost out of nowhere and no benefit at all.

The enormous sacrifice of her daughter was inversely proportional to the momentary pleasure of the biological father that made Abah feel so guilty. For years, Abah felt guilty. Sometimes he only visited his daughter and granddaughter from a distance.

"Change ... why daydream?"

"Eee what's wrong, Neng Rani?"

Abah had not had time to answer Rania's question, Alfian sat down crouching in front of Abah, "From now on Grandpa must follow Brother, it is time for Grandpa to change his stance and start to want to see Mami. Grandpa knew for years that Mami had been crying when she saw Grandpa from a distance ... Brother always takes secretly a photo of Mami." Alfian gave a photo of the activity while his two parents visited him secretly.

Abah saw one by one the photos shown by Alfian. Rania also saw the photo. Sometimes Rania also steals the view of seeing the handsome face of her divine husband. Alfian only smiled knotfully while pretending not to know if Rania was looking at her face silently.

"One more Grandpa, from this moment on she is Brother's wife, so grandfather and she is Brother's responsibility now!" Alfian said firmly while pointing at Rania.

"But Sir, Rani ...?"

"No words but, you must obey what the husband says."

Back Abah daydreamed, considering Rania had told him if there was a young man who had taken a picture together without a thread. Making his heart ache remembering how the pain when his daughter had to serve her betel husband when he was forced to marry. It is also remembered when he first met Rania in her tomb at midnight.

Not wanting past events to reoccur, and wanting to know his own grandson's heart's earnestness about his adopted grandson. Abah decided to start accepting what Alfian said. Abah thought it was time to change his mind.

Even though he is no longer young, it is time to improve before death picks up. Will only surrender to the destiny that God has laid down on him. Makes Abah more confident and calm after knowing if his biological grandson is the soul mate of the adopted grandson.

"Well Bang, Grandpa will follow everything you say. Grandpa only asked for one condition from Brother."

"Whatever conditions Grandpa will do for the happiness of Mami and her. say!" Alfian pointed at Rania again.

"Abang should get married right now with Neng Rania!"

"Rrc ... Abah!" shout Rania.
