Cars under Osman's control drove slowly through the crowds of the street that afternoon. 10 Minutes ago, silence dominated. Arumi chose silence and just glanced to the side of the road that passed.
As if knowing full well his weakness, Rafli managed to force him to come along by utilizing the name Aika.
"From now on don't get close to your friend. Make the distance as far as possible with him. I don't think he's a good person" Rafli said, glancing back.
"And you think you're a good man, don't you?"
"At least I'm not as bad as him."
Arumi turned his head until now looking at each other with Rafli. "You've only known him for a few days and feel you can judge him with confidence. While being with you for a year you can't score well."
Eggplant! Arumi's speech a few seconds ago managed to knock the mental man sitting in front.
"You'll know how bad he is" Rafli replied.
"I don't think there's anything worse than a father separating a nursing baby from its mother. Isn't that right, Osman?"
Kala Osman pursed his lips to hold back a laugh, a blasphemous look was presented Rafli. Osman chose to focus on driving.
"No comment, sir." While publishing a bitter smile.
A few minutes later, the car entered the yard of a house. Arumi's gaze rotated around. The house that Rafli prepared looked very beautiful and beautiful. From the outside it is not so luxurious, but comfortable.
A pair of Arumi's eyes suddenly flooded with clear crystal after finding little Aika was already standing at the door with Omanya. It turned out to be true Rafli said before leaving the hospital. Aika was already home and waiting. Things that make Arumi crumble and cancel back to Alex's apartment.
As soon as the car stopped, Arumi immediately wore a veil to disguise her face.
Rafli looked at him sadly. He knew how much Arumi was hurt by having to hide her face from Aika.
"That's my mommy, Oma! My mommy's home!"
The feisty words from the owner of that adorable voice managed to melt Arumi's tears. The mountain longing made him immediately get off the car.
As impatient to hug the woman who said daddy was the real mommy, Aika ran fast. Arumi crouched down and spread out both of her hands. Followed by a warm feeling when his daughter's small body was immersed in his arms.
"My son, mommy misses you so much" she whispered softly with a tight hug.
"Has mommy healed?"
Aika's mommy-embedded call created an immeasurable sense of happiness in Arumi's heart.
"Mommy won't go again, will she?"
"No, Honey. Mommy will always be here to keep you company."
Aika still hugged her mommy. As if I don't want to be separated anymore. He didn't even want to take off his arms. Rafli also approached immediately, because Arumi's physical condition has not fully recovered and has not been able to hold Aika for a long time.
"Aika, here's Daddy who's fat. Mommy can't yet" Rafli said.
Arumi then rose from a crouching position when Mom Riana approached her. The two hugged each other fully. This is the first meeting since the night Arumi was evicted from the house four years ago.
"How are you doing, Arumi? You're feeling better, aren't you?" ask the middle-aged woman.
"I feel better, Mom. Thank you for taking care of Aika all this time."
"What are you talking about, why should you thank me? Aika is my granddaughter."
After letting go of the longing, they entered the house. Rafli checks the surroundings and makes sure the house is comfortable for Arumi and Aika.
"Wait, why are there two suitcases here?" rafli asked as he looked at the two suitcases near the entrance. One belongs to Aika, seen from the motif of the doll and the other one does not belong to whom.
"Mommy's suitcase."
"Why did you also bring a suitcase?"
"Because I'm going to stay here with Arumi and Aika."
That answer made Rafli's pair of eyes fully rounded. Though he had thought of allowing Aika to stay with Arumi as a weapon just to knock Arumi out.
"That means from now on I'll stay home alone."
"For you to understand that being alone is not good" Mom Riana said with a smile.
"Daddy just go home first and grab a suitcase too. Let's stay here with mommy!"
Instantly Arumi and Rafli exchanged lyrics.
"Good, Aika! Come on, more insistent ask for it. If you need to force this daddy of yours!" rafli's screams inward.
