WINTER GLOW'S

WINTER GLOW'S
Roses In The Desert



ONCE....


A man desperate for a child, comforts himself by visiting an orphanage. He desperately wants a boy who will continue his business empire, which he can be invited to watch the ball along with all the excitement. But the obstetrician consultant infertility sentenced his wife can not have children even though through the method of the baby tube due to abnormalities of the uterus which causes the inability of the uterus to ride the fetus. While leaving the wife he loved so much, the man was unable because it was to him that his wife made him so successful as he is now.


" Any Rajan Abdi?" An orphanage head greeted the man who was contemplating his fate.


" Is there anything I can help you with?" Because it was not usual for Rayan Abdi to visit twice a week, and today not only did he come for a second time but also his face looked gloomy.


Rayan Abdi did not answer he just stared blankly at the children who were playing in the courtyard of the orphanage. Many boys but his heart continued to languish blankly every time he saw them, he increasingly felt empty and incomplete. The boy's laughter seemed to laugh at his shortcomings, but that day there was a girl sitting in a garden chair not far from where Rayan Abdi was standing. The girl who looked sad and kept on moody, as if there was nothing in this world that could make her laugh.


" The boy... "


" Just arrived a few days ago, sir. Both of her parents died in an accident, she was taken care of by her grandmother but only a few months after that her grandmother also died. Recently he's been adopted several times by a new family but...."


" but?"


" But somehow there's always the coincidence that every family that adopted it shortly afterwards suffered a disaster. Until he was considered. bring shit." The head of the parlour looked so concerned that the girl was so beautiful like a Barbie doll.


" A moment the person who saw it would be fascinated but after adopting it they would blame the child for the unpleasant thing they were going through, imagine how frightened the little girl was. The whole world doesn't seem to accept it."


Rayan Abdi was touched that very second, as if he had found someone so fateful. Rayan Abdi feels he has just been able to fight against the world, to prove that things that are not accepted in this world such as the lack of his wife can realize an impossible dream.


" Hey." Rayan approached the boy and grabbed his little fingers. The boy raised his face, his eyes looking hopeless.


" Will you hug Om?" Somehow Rayan cried at that time, she said nothing but the tears told the girl that Rayan was just as pitiful. The little girl wiped the tears of Rayan with her little fingers then dai hugged Rayan who was crouching on the ground.


The instant the girl's cry broke, she felt like she had found the leaning spot she was looking for. And he could devote anything in that place including dividing his load.


That day Rayan took the little fingers to his house.


" His name is Paradisa, it's a name given to his late parents." Rayan's wife, Mia. Just staring as she froze to see her husband bring a daughter home, she knew that a boy was her husband's biggest dream.


" From today his name is Paradisa Kusniar."


" Ouhhh?" Rayan's wife immediately rushed to embrace Paradisa, evaporating the feeling of haru mixed happily. He did not care about men or women, seeing such a perfect face his heart was so happy. Even that happiness did not change after Rayan recounted the title of the unlucky bearer attached to the beautiful child.


" Mama?"


" Huh?" Mia is flabbergasted, not believing herself to be called mama by a child. The call she missed so much. He was afraid that he had misheard, he was afraid that this was just his illusion.


" Mama.."


" Yes son... This is my dear mother." Nodding while crying. Paradisa hugged Mia and her crying broke again. His little lips continued to say the word mama with a tiny fingers squeezing the mother's clothes. He was afraid once left behind, so scared.


From then on Paradisa finds her home, her new family. But a fact must still be faced that people as famous as Rayan Abdi can not hide the fact that Paradisa who he called by the name Esa was an adopted child. His revelations made the whole world know that Rayan Abdi did not have any children and Esa was an adopted child. Cruel indeed, because of that Rayan Abdi as much as possible did not appear in public with Esa not because of shame about his status but.... Rayan did not want Esa to be hurt by hearing the words of those who called her an adopted child. All the family celebrations are closed and Rayan uses her power to keep the media away from her son's life. Rayan Abdi Kusniar, during his career in politics was better known as Rayan Abdi and the name stuck with his skyrocketing political career. Meanwhile, the name Kusniar began to be forgotten, until many were unaware that Paradisa Kusniar was the adopted child of Rayan Abdi. As time goes on people begin to forget about Paradisa Kusniar.


But Esa who felt she had been given a life, lifted from the darkest place to a place full of the future always tried to impress Rayan. Starting from studying very hard to always be the best in school, maintaining an attitude to always be polite to make both parents proud because they are always praised by colleagues when they meet Esa. Once he knew that his foster father had longed for a boy at his age who was still eleven years old . Esa also tried hard to be a son for the father and daughter for the mother. Esa used to watch sports matches with papa or even sports together like a son with his biological father. Do whatever makes both parents happy. And it was that historic day that became the starting point of all the chaos that dragged Esa into the dirty work.


" What are we doing? AKS team will be here soon." (AKS or Anti-Corruption and Bribery, a state agency similar to the KPK is klo in real life Wak) Jabat Sentosa looks confused, he said, his plan and Rayan Abdi who wants to build a political hierarchy are threatened to end up in iron bars. AKS began to smell the traces of crimes committed by Rayan Abdi where he was newly appointed as the leader of the Red Lion group, AKS found the alleged election fraud in the form of vote manipulation. Unfortunately at that time all the records of his criminal transactions were in the workspace Rayan Abdi precisely in one of the rooms in his private house. Of course Rayan Abdi could not avoid if AKS found evidence of it in his home.


" How long until they get here."


" In less than 20 minutes they will arrive. We won't have time to get out of here, AKS spies are constantly monitoring us outside." The handshake pulled a little window curtain and looked at some point that was being guarded uh undercover AKS agent.


" It's crazy.. pyuuhhh." Esa, who was in 1st grade, accidentally crossed in front of her father's office and heard their conversation. From the opening of the door slightly open Esa saw the FD held by her father.


" We have to hide this evidence, without having to tamper with it because it contains all the evidence related to the whole makeup of parliament. Not spared anyone, if this is found we will be swept away but throwing it away will only accelerate our death because it will lose control of greedy officials. Ah... How is this?"


Esa suddenly enters and grabs FD in her father's hand and connects it to a computer device, Esa moves all the contents of her father's FD in her personal FD. Rayan who looked shocked wanted to ask but was unable to make a sound. His mouth just stuttered and then shut up because of the panic attack.


During the data transfer process Esa took super pads and glue from her room and then took her to her father's office. He took one of the unopened pads and then opened a little wrap next FD owned by Esa who had finished moving it was taken and then put in the wrapper that was opened. After arranging it so that it does not look Esa glued back the packaging that was open earlier and put it in a large package so that it mixes with other pads. FD that looks empty will be very suspicious so Esa filled with her schoolwork and then put the FD in her bag. Afterwards Esa who was still wearing her school uniform hurriedly came out of her father's study.


" She." Call Rayan


THE TECH! The main door opened then entered several AKS agents who were preparing to search the entire house of Rayan Abdi.
