When That Sense Is Present

47. Surprise to Alif.

Alif is signing all the files requested by his employees. This week he was really busy. Good thing there was Jefrey helping out at Dad's company. Mike this week went to Germany for his honeymoon with Lira's sister. She even plans to have another baby. Alif just stroked his chest with the behavior of his sister-in-law.

And what makes Alif even more furious, Mike cold man as if heating it by always sending their friendly photos at all times. With a caption

"It's all right?" Say Alif while thrusting all his files. Alif is very tired and wants to get out of this room immediately.

"Thank you, sir"

Eventually he was able to leave the office of the Pradipta corp. The afternoon street looks slow even though this is almost the office hours disperse. Lucky, Inner Alif. He drove his car at high speed. It feels like sleeping in his quiet apartment while thinking beautifully can live with his small family.

Alif immersed himself in the room, shades of bright purple became the decoration of this room. Has not changed the romantic atmosphere and all the existing trinkets he keeps all the memories that ever existed remain his.

Already increased one picture frame that he enlarged and installed on the wall. Of course the photos belong to Light.

In this place there are many beautiful moments with Antyka. The union of love with the indescribable desire of its beauty. Almost crazy to think of it again. Everything flashed and was clearly drawn every second.

"I miss so much, Antyka" muttered softly and Alif continued to say. He wants to knock back the heart he has hurt. Touching the side he could still fix. But all that despair made him even more frustrated. Alif groaning in daydreams.

Dingan tones connect on his phone, making Alif aware. His body immediately moved and opened his phone.

"Mike....?"

"To mother's house!"

"I'm tired"

"I'm home, we'll see you at home. Must come, no rejection"

Alif hung up the phone call. Take a deep breath and then go into the bathroom. A warm shower makes some of her muscles relax.

"You're coming?" Mike welcomed his brother-in-law. The cold man was just like he was in a fall. His smile was perfect.

"You said, can I refuse?" Alif threw his body on the sofa with his face bent.

"Lif..." Mother approached, her gentle hand rubbing felt warm on Alif's back. Mommy sits by Alif's side. "don't look that tangled. Mommy has a surprise for you"

"Surprise...?"

"Just wait a minute"

Alif moved from his seat. Then looked at Mike who had gone to the living room approaching Lira who was arranging food on the dining table. There was a cool Jefrey accompanying Mr. Haris while Mike's second daughter was not visible.

"Where's Audry?" alif asked his sister"

"Have you forgotten that your niece is still in school? He came back from last week"

Alif nodded his head, At the end of this his head only contained Caya and Antyka until it almost missed what happened in his own family.

The Pradipta family had gathered at the dinner table, but they had not yet started their dinner

"Why hasn't it started yet?" alif was confused.

"Having arrived, they are in front of the house" said the lira as she put her phone. The lira and mother immediately stood up to greet the guests they were waiting for.

The moment at the dinner table seemed silent. But the faces of Mike and Haris' father look bright. They seem compact hiding something from Alif.

"Is this a surprise for me?" ask Alif with a flat mimic.

"Let's see you'll like it" Dad's words made Alif even more curious.

Lira and mother are back with the two people they are waiting for.

"Daddy...."

Alif immediately turned to the voice that he had not met this one week. His face stiffened even more when Caya came in the gang by Antyka. Alif's chest was pounding, as if not believing his vision.

"Saya, Anty?" Like the dream Alif had. Antyka wants to go back to this house.

"Sit here" Back Alif looked nervous.prepared the dining chairs for Caya and Antyka right by his side. All eyes looked at Alif with a meaningful smile.

"How was the surprise of Lif? you likey?" Mike laughed mischievously.....Alif is wrong. The look in his eyes did not steal a glance towards Antyka. Alif still did not expect.

"Already, let's eat" said Haris mediating everything.

***

"Thank you Anty, you're coming to see me. Mother is no longer your father-in-law. But for mother, you are still the mother's child. You know there's no ex-child or mom?" Mother said while holding Antyka's hand. The middle-aged woman looked so happy. After eating Antyka and mother talked together

"Same Bun, Anty would like to thank you for your help yesterday"

"Don't think about it, it's our family's duty to protect you. It all started with us, Anty. sorry.." mother looked sad when she said. "Can you be greedy ...? mother wants you and the Light here. Come back..., forgive us" the clear droplet could no longer be held back.

Antyka is in deep concern. Pain and fear still haunts him. At the same time, his heart was currently so warm. That feeling never goes away, just buried deep. When he was staying in the excavation and in the description he was still very powerful shaking his world.

Antyka rubs the flowing feathers on your cheeks. Hugged it warm. To overcome the disappointment that was ever present between him.

In the other room Haris is cool with Caya. He accompanied his grandson to play. Haris' memory goes back to the time he became a young father. This opportunity he did not get first. A feeling of resentment takes away opportunity. She didn't even think the baby was still alive.

"Caya, opa wants to carry Caya" Haris rubbed his grandson's black hair. His eyes begged, longing for the little girl in front of him. The empty space of his past wanted him to fill. " Opa kangen Caya" said Haris

"Opa..., Caya is already big" Despite saying so, Caya still let Haris carry her. His little hands hugged Haris' neck spoiled, while his little head had collapsed on Haris' chest comfortably.

A calm and comforting feeling in Haris. Pecking the tip of the head of the grandson with the fragrant aroma of fruit that cash. He's very happy. Even the old man was smiling happily with bright eyes twinkle.

When Jefrey was a baby she did not feel this closeness with her granddaughter. It's all because of Mike and Audrey. Her little angel angel was moved away by the complicated circumstances.

"Dear love opa" Comfort felt Caya made the little birbir say full of seduction with an innocent look. He catapulted Haris' feelings towards the peak of his taste

"Opa is more affectionate with Caya" Haris did not want to lose expressing his love.

Alif was still standing behind the door. Stealing hearing things that Mother and Antyka are discussing. Her chest rippled as the mother asked Antyka to return. He did not really understand what you have done for Antyka so Antyka could and Sudi came back to this house with Caya. It coincides with Mike's return.

Mike cleared his throat staring at his sister-in-law who was acting like a thief.

"Why not sit in front of you?" mike asked with a mocking smile.

"It could be slow in your voice!" Alif doesn't like it. The concentration was heavy as soon as Mike surprised him who was eavesdropping.

"You haven't changed. Still a loser. You owe me a debt of gratitude" Mike said as he passed to his wife and also Jefrey. Alif could only look at Mike with a question.

"Jef, Daddy wants to go home with you. You want to come or the opa house"

"I Will stay here" Jef said without looking at his father. The young man looked at his laptop screen seriously" His face and manner were very much like Mike's. It is cold and also cold.

After saying goodbye to Haris and Light. Lira and Mike also passed Alif who was still in the same position.

"Mba Lira home, Lif. It's on the table with a gift for Caya and Anty. Please give it to me later"

"Thank you I'll give it to Caya and Anty"

**

"She's asleep?" alif asked his father who is still loyal to hold Caya while shaking Caya's body shake.

"Sttttt ....., don't be noisy" Haris doesn't want his granddaughter distracted.

In its history it will be written Haris managed to lull the grandson for the first time. Alif just smiled amusedly. Caya is his daughter but the opa is so possessive. Maybe if he became an old man he would act like that.

"But he hasn't brushed his teeth yet, well" Alif protested.

"It's okay, just this once. Next time I'll take him to brush his teeth before going to bed. I love Lif, Dad's arms are comfortable, so he's asleep" Haris said proudly. Alif just scratched his head that did not itch should he refute.

"Well, if he has a toothache, it will be even worse" Alif said

"He said it was Opa. Dad won't make her wake up and cry for a toothbrush, Kasian" Haris says..

"Did Caya sleep" Antyka's voice eased Alif and Haris's argument. Both looked at him with different eyes. Alif saw her beautiful angel. While Haris stared happily when his daughter returned, even he showed off his skills to put the grandson to sleep.

"May I, stay here? I'll take care of him, don't worry"

"But yeah this week it's Anty's turn to take care"

"She's sleeping Anty, tomorrow morning the mother who Antara Caya to the house" continued the mother made Antyka not feel good to refuse.

"Alright, then Anty said goodbye first mother, Father" Antyka gave up. He kissed the back of his former father-in-law's second hand and said goodbye.

"Lif.., please take Antyka. It's not good night he's out alone"

"It's okay Bun, Anty used to drive herself anyway. only nine o'clock"

"I Antara Anty, there is no rejection" Alif said as he grabbed the paper bag on the lira giving table

Antyka sighed, The habit of forcing and all by itself is still the same. Hasn't changed. Reluctantly Antyka followed Alif's long steps.

"Get me your car keys!" Actually Antyka tried to resist again but when she turned her head, she noticed him from the terrace with a gentle smile. Antyka had to give up her car keys

***

"I was really busy this week. Mike went to Germany with Lira's brother. I'm sorry I didn't get to see Caya at all" Alif said as he drove Antyka's car into the main road.

"It's okay" answered Antyka Acuh. His eyes refused to meet Alif. He is still not ready to control the taste that re-degrades

"But I have one very interesting question. Who invited you and Caya to the house ?and it's great you didn't refuse, Anty"

"Sister Mike.." - Antyka

"Sister Mike...?". Alif was surprised instead of playing his annoying sister-in-law had given him one gift.

But in Alif's mind was very curious to know what Mike had made until Antyka could this tenth.

"Is brother Mike threatening you?" alif's silly question made Antyka laugh. Alif scrunched up his forehead confused . It was Mike's influence.

"Of course not, Mike helped me. Even though he's in Germany, he still cares about my fate"

"I still don't understand. Mike helped What?"

"Sir Alif can ask his own brother Mike"

"You're making me even more curious"

"Sir Alif really doesn't know?" Antyka looked curious.

"Yes, this one week they're draining my energy and my mind. I didn't get to go to Mom's house. Every night I go home to our apartment"

"Apartment Mr. Alif, not us" Antyka said cynically.

" I've actually given it to you, but you never want to accept it. So as long as Caya's immature I still want to take care of her. I occupied it again since returning home from .., finally until Anty" Alif did not continue his speech. Incidentally, their car arrived.

"Thank you" The two got off Antyka's car

"What did Mr. Alif wear?"

"I can take a taxi. Can I sit on the porch waiting for my cab to come?"

"Yes...., Mr. Alif wants coffee?" Antyka was just a stale base offering Alif coffee. He did not want to be cruel to let Alif just sit dumb without offering anything.

"You once, Anty. As always" Alif said quickly. His heart blossomed after all these years. It will be a historic day again for him to sip coffee made by Antyka.

Not long ago Antyka came back out with a hot cup of coffee with a seductive aroma. He also brought his favorite cheesestick jars.

Without waiting for long Alif sipped slowly Kopo hotnya. His eyes closed as if back in time. The atmosphere and taste are the same. Alif reached into the jar, took a few pieces of cheesestick and put them in his mouth. Alif was so lulled by her unconscious feelings Antyka kept staring at him.

The night wind was beating on their skin. Not so piercing but cool. Both are integrated in a breath that is still under control. Time and time continue to travel. Until the sound of the car horn shocked them. Apparently the taxi that Alif ordered has arrived.

"Anty, thank you" Alif said as he said goodbye. Alif left the Antika house despite still wanting to be there. Although only silent, enjoying the atmosphere of the night with Antyka is very pleasant.

**

Alif opened his phone he remembered Mike's words. He must know what Mike has done for Antyka. I want to thank you for this beautiful night.

Call for Mike's number.

"Mike....."

"You like...?" Mike's laughter was funny.

"Mike what...?" ask Alif but cut.

" Save it with your thanks. Just pray we're processing a new niece for you" Nada mocked Mike so thickly.

"Junkkkkk......" Alif is very upset at his sister-in-law who is very less of a norm

" Tut.." his phone disconnected.
