Without Looking

Episode 24: Mother's Father

Arriving at the Office, Zian's steps hurriedly walked towards his room. He opened his coat and hung it on his oversized chair. Afterwards Zian picked up the phone. Hit one of the numbers there.

"Hen, to my room right now!" Tell Zian to put the phone back without waiting for Hendri's answer.

Zian sat down with both hands. Holding his face with both elbows placed on the table. His face looked as if he was thinking. He looks nervous and impatient. A little while later, a person Zian was waiting for entered the room. Step away quietly. Ducking for a moment, after that a little bowed respectfully as usual. Zian lowered the two hands that were holding his chin. Stand fast walking closer to Hendri. Both hands he put in his pants pocket. The full gaze of inquiry was shown by Zian when he faced Hendri. While Hendri was still trying to calmly stare at Zian.

"Sorry sir, can I help you?" Ask Hendri calmly.

Zian's feet stepped to the left a little then returned to where they were. Staring at Hendri while slightly grunting, smiling obliquely.

"You learn to be a liar too. I'm asking for Akira Meysaras' address!" Pinta Zian without any further ado.

Hendri seemed to guess. Frown for a moment.

"What .." It was as if Hendri's sentence halted and immediately cut off Zian.

"Yes. I already know. I'm surprised you're Hen! Why are you more willing to talk honestly with your sister than I am your boss? What's wrong with asking who the woman is? Or am I not entitled to know?" A number of questions were asked by Zian while walking back and forth in front of Hendri.

"Sorry sir. Not like that, but ..."

Hendri hesitated to continue his answer. Drooping did not dare to look at his superior who could have been angry and throw any item near him.

"But what? Huh uh?" Sinis Zian while grunting in annoyance. "Udahlah! Doesn't matter! Now you find out the address of the woman!" Tell Zian again after that sit back in the chair. Opening the laptop will continue the work.

Now Hendri dared to raise his face. Feeling lucky Hendri, because Zian did not scold him or throw objects right in front of him as Zian usually does. Hendri picked up the phone, looking for something on his phone.

"Sorry sir, but I already have the address." Hendri said while thrusting the phone onto the table.

Zian stared at Hendri's phone. Bring him into his grasp. The photo of the house is also Akira's full address. Zian nodded, understanding Hendri's intention to put the phone on the table. Re-take the phone in front of Hendri. The man then refocused on the laptop. Tinkering with the keyboard on the laptop.

"Send that photo to my phone!" Pinta Zian without looking at Hendri.

Hendri understood the nod and said goodbye to return to work. Zian looked calmer than before. He feels calmer, as he finally gets Akira's home address. That way, Zian could immediately meet Akira and get certainty over the contents of the letter he had read.

°°°

When the Sun is at the top of the horizon. The classic style house with the dominance of the middle white color in a blanket of laughter from two people who were being teased by Satya. That afternoon Satya came to visit Rista's house. A lot of what Satya told me made Rista forget the difficulty of facing Zian's attitude. The girl seemed to be amused by Satya's presence. Even Satya, he also teased Chandra by continuing to pinch the boy's chubby cheek.

"Uhhh... Chubby chandra! Seneng lives with mama?" Satya asked as she pinched Chandra's cheek.

"Om oh! It hurts!" Rengek Chandra then hugged Rista beside him.

"Satya!" Rista hugged Chandra.

Satya even grinned while scratching his non-itchy bend.

"Hehe sorry, cute abis Chandranya. Isn't that Chan?" Satya will pinch Chandra's cheek again, but the child slips into Rista's arms. Making his face sink into Rista's stomach.

"Eh, scared huh?! Don't be afraid, dear. I'm good!" Satya patted Chandra's shoulder.

Satya was stared at by Chandra with a look of disbelief.

"Dear, this Satya Om is good. He's just a bit of a bitch, so Chandra don't be afraid!" Rista exclaimed as she touched Chandra's head and rubbed it gently.

Satya turned to look at Rista.

"So, you want to adopt this kid?" Ask Satya again to make sure.

"Yes Sat. He seems comfortable with me. Written in the letter, his mother asked me to do it. I hope he stays here." Sahut Rista explained his good intentions.

Satya sighed after that smiling sweetly. He felt that he was not wrong to love a woman, who was gentle and loving. In fact, the child who is not clear where Rista came from would adopt. According to Satya Rista, the picture of the perfect woman.

Hand held by tiny Chandra by Satya.

"If so, from now on call dad!" Pinta Satya at Chandra who was looking at her confusedly.

"Dad?" Wonder Rista then continued the question. "What does Sat mean?"

Rista frowned. Trying to listen well to Satya's reason for wanting to call 'father'.

"So gini means. Kan the face of the wall has not agreed even he effect does not agree to the adoption of Chandra. But I, I agree with Chandra's adoptive sister. So let me be Chandra's dad. Is it okay, baby?" Obviously Satya turned his gaze around stroking chubby Chandra's cheek.

Rista smiled sweetly. Flattered by Satya's request. The man in front of him was good. Always support Rista's good intentions even from the beginning.

"I'm up to Chandra!" Rista cried still with a smile.

"Oh that's it! So what about dear Chandra, want to call 'dad'? Om Satya is good, cute, handsome again just as rich as Chandra. Chandra wants to? Satya's father will give her ice cream, chocolate, lollipop, what else? Chandra wants what?" Persuade Satya while playing Chandra's tiny hand.

The boy took off his embrace on Rista. He turned to look at Satya with a serious innocent look.

"Robot Poly." Said Chandra who immediately got Satya's approval.

Satya swiftly brought Chandra into his lap. Gently brush the child's hair.

"Can. How many?"

"Three."

"Come, Satya's father will buyin. Which one is Korean or American? I'll buyin." Reveal Satya with confidence.

"Op's swallowed?" Chandra looked up at Satya.

"Eh, how about?" Kaget Satya's. I can't accept Chandra still calling him 'om'.

Chandra blinked, then looked down again.

"Dad." Gumam Chandra while playing Satya's hand fingers.

"What dear? Dad not horrified?"

Satya pretended not to listen, bringing her ears closer to Chandra's cheek.

"Dad." Chandra murmured again a little louder.

"Uhh.. Yes, dear father."

Satya hugged Chandra tightly. After that, she put her cheek to the side of Chandra's face, hinting that she wanted to get a little kiss from Chandra's tiny lips.

"Where's kiss? Kiss dad dong!"

Rista who had listened to the conversation of the two, smiled to himself. Feeling so happy, Chandra can finally feel the complete affection of both parents.

Although Rista does not know who Chandra's original parents are, Rista willingly gives Chandra's parents the love they lost. Instead it is Ristalah who will be the mother to Chandra. For Chandra's father's troubles, Rista doesn't know what Zian will accept? But, with Satya's presence made her feel a little relieved. Chandra can feel the affection of a father from Satya. No Rista thought the tears escaped falling down her cheeks. Sigap Rista swept away those tears with a palm.

"Mother why are you crying?' Satya asked who had noticed.

"That's not so dear. Mother is okay." Answer Rista.

Without realizing it, Rista apparently called Satya dear. Thought Rista the one who asked was Chandra, so he replies like that. Rista's reply clearly made Satya chuckle.

"Em, that's it, baby. Kirain's mother's father also wants to be kissed rich Chandra." Satya said with a ruckus.

Rista's mind was awakened. The voice he heard was not Chandra's, but Satya's. His cheeks immediately blushed red. Shame on Rista himself, it turns out he answered wrong earlier. Subjugated face by Rista. Didn't want Satya to see his shameful behavior. Because of thinking about Zian, Rista answered wrongly. The girl did not answer the shame of silence a thousand languages. It was as if his mouth was locked to respond to Satya's words.

"Loh kok mama even nduk. Don't be ashamed, Bun, there's a father!" Tempta Satya again added a red hue on Rista's cheeks.

"Satya what the hell are you!" Rista Mumbles.

"It's okay Bun. Don't be ashamed!" Satya cried still with a ruckus.

Rista who realized Satya kept teasing him. Trying to find the whereabouts of Satya's legs with his cane. Hit Satya's leg after finding the location of the leg.

Rista's actions make Satya grimace. Lifting legs stroking dry handyman covered in jeans.

"Aw! Brother sick! Big brother why the hell, a hobby so hit me?" Gerrutu Satya stroking feet.

"You're a bitch!" Rista pouted. Grasping his wand back.

"Nyebelin what is ngangenin?' Tempta Satya came closer to whisper.

Now Rista again hit Satya's knee with a stick. Not hurt the blow from Rista, he just expressed a feeling of annoyance as well as embarrassment with Satya's words.

"Nyebelin, but ngangenin yakan sis?"

Satya still dared to tease her old friend. Rista said nothing, he looked down again in embarrassment. It's true what Satya said. Satya is often acting silly, but it is his silly behavior that imprint on the heart.

Satya smiled happily. Seeing the timid Rista also smiling happily like this is a happiness in itself for Satya. Satya's hope is to always make Rista happy as well as wipe away every tear of grief in her life.

"Udah mother! I won't kiss!" Satya said still a little teasing.

Rista pouted, but her heart could not lie. He was happy to hear Satya. It made her smile on her lips. Seeing Rista's smile made Satya smile.

"Satya you are! I was wrong to say that." Rista firmly remembered that.

"Em, that's okay, too." Satya's sigh in a soft tone.

That little sigh Rista couldn't hear. Curious to make Ristapun ask.

"What Sat? I'm not horrified. Tumben says you're slow!" Rista Seru. Trying to listen carefully to what Satya will answer.

"It's okay mom." Satya replied with a gentle emphasis.

Satya's reply again made Rista pout followed by a smile after.

Dusk greeted, After quite a long time of chatting and joking for almost half a full day. Satya came home at four in the afternoon from Rista's residence as well as Zian. The man even had lunch together.

Elsewhere, Zian was observing a simple house building in light blue. The house has a twin next to it. The house Zian believed to be a contract. Looks quiet atmosphere there, maybe the owner of the house is not there. From the information Zian got. A contract there in the habitation of a college boy who may not have come home. And the right one is the contract that Akira lives in as well as his mother.

The information Zian got. Not long after, a middle-aged woman came to open the door of the house with a key in her hand. Zian who did not want to delay again, immediately got out of the car. Approaching the woman. Then dare to ask.

"Sorry, excuse me Mom!" Sapa Zian's.

The mother in the yellow dress turned around still with the key she held.

"What's up, son?" Ask the mother kindly.

"Is this really the residence of Akira Meisaras?"

The mother knitted her eyebrows staring questioningly.

"Yes right, what's the need?"

"Include me Zian's friend Akira. I want to meet Akira, can't you?"

Inwardly, the mother wondered who the man before her really was? Where does Akira his ordinary son get a man in a neat suit typical of people? Judging by its appearance. This man must not be just any man, but a person who has a position. Slowly the mother shook Zian's hand which had been outstretched.

"I am Yuni, Akira's mother." Let go of that hand, then start answering with a regretful face. "But, I'm sorry son. Akira's moved on."

"What?" Shocked Zian knit an eyebrow.

"Yes son. A few days ago Akira moved to Jakarta with his aunt. He said he wanted to work there." Yuni.

"Mom, do you have an address where you live?" Zian asked impatiently to get an answer soon.

Yuni fell silent. Doubt he wanted to answer.

Looking at the silent Yuni. Zian immediately concluded that Yuni did not want to answer Zian's question. It's possible that they've been conspiring with Chandra's planned banishment of Zian's house.

Seen Zian so disappointed, it turns out Akira has prepared everything to give Chandra and then avoid by going far. Doldrums Zian was about to leave the place, maybe Zian should ask Hendri to investigate about the whereabouts of Akira in Jakarta.

However, just as Zian was about to turn around. His steps were restrained by Yuni's exclamation.

"Wait! ...
