"Ayra is on her way with the driver" said Akasma Lirih.
"Alright, this is your own choice. Don't ever blame me if it's not fair to your son. I've given you a chance but you've been wasting it yourself. I'll make sure Ayra's success starts from now on!" Sonia immediately ended the phone call from Akasma with indignation.
The middle-aged woman took a deep breath and was now trying to sit on her favorite rocking chair. His eyes returned to the mirror while observing a photo on the wall.
"My son, you are happy there. Mama will make your daughter a great and honorable woman later," muttered Sonia grievingly.
At exactly 4 am the car driven by Mr. Ahmad has arrived at the residence of Sonia. With great care the man again held Ayrani who was still asleep and knocked on the door of Sonia's house.
"Tok tok....!" a man with a small child in his sling was standing right in front of the door and a tote bag in his hand.
Sonia who had been waiting for their arrival immediately opened the door with the company of her housekeeper.
"Let me open the door, madam," said Miss Goddess Sonia's loyal servant.
Two middle-aged women walked hand in hand opening the door. Sonia was very happy to see the grandchild sleeping on the shoulders of Mr. Ahmad. Time and again the old woman showered the poor boy with a kiss of affection.
"Welcome, my granddaughter!" Sonia.
Mr. Ahmad was welcome to come in and sit down, but before sitting he put Ayrani to bed that had been prepared by Sonia.
"Thank you!" sonia told Ahmad.
"Once again I apologize Madam, let alone my arrival has made you shocked," said Mr. Ahmad.
"It's not your fault, sir. You've been serving my son for years. It should be me who is grateful for your loyalty to Samir" Sonia said.
Bu Dewi came out with a tray containing hot coffee and cakes for Mr. Ahmad. After being invited by Sonia, Mr. Ahmad also sipped the coffee, because he was very sleepy because last night he had not slept at all and hoped that the coffee could relieve his drowsiness.
"It is better to rest in the guest room for a while, Mr. Ahmad is very tired of course. Don't force it!" sonia is back.
"Mmmm....!" Mr. Ahmad seemed confused to refuse Sonia's offer to stay until morning arrived. But in reality he felt very tired and needed a short rest until his sleepiness disappeared and returned fresh.
"Mother Goddess, take Mr. Ahmad to the guest room!"
Mr. Ahmad was forced to follow Sonia's orders, all of which he did for his own safety as well.
"Please!" Bu Dewi opened the 0 doors of the guest room and left Mr. Ahmad there.
After the dawn prayer, Ahmad closed his eyes and rested.

The little girl who was soundly asleep in the whitewashed room, seemed to start waking up and opening her eyes. The little girl looked puzzled, the poor boy's wry eyeballs continued to circulate his gaze all over the side of the room. There is a picture of him with his deceased parents on display there.
"Mama, Papa!" pekik Ayrani.
Ayrani kept remembering whose room he was in at that time. And I wonder, "Whose house is this? me where?"
"Mr...! Brother Pritha....!" yell Ayrani.
Hearing the grandchild's cry, Sonia immediately rushed up to the girl while hugging her, "Good morning, my granddaughter!"
"Who are you?" ask Ayrani.
"Don't be afraid baby, I'm your grandmother, your Papa's mother!" sonia explained.
"Grandma!" The little boy then tried to remember.
"Grandmother So....!" Ayra failed to remember the name of the middle-aged woman before her.
"Yes, I'm Sonia's Grandma. Remember Grandma?" asked Sonia trying to open the memory of the granddaughter again.
Ayrani nodded her head, "Why can I be at Grandma's house. Where's Mama and Kak Pritha?"
Sonia led the little girl to sit down at the dinner table. The table is filled with some food and also milk and fruit juice.
"Sit, Son! Eat first, after eating later grandma will tell you!"
Sonia takes a glass of milk and gives it to Ayrani. After a night or can be said almost a day does not eat anything. The poor girl grabbed a glass of milk from Sonia's hand and immediately drank it.
"Ayra must be hungry, right?" said Sonia, her hand grabbed a piece of bread that had been smeared with jam by Bu Dewi and gave it to Ayrani.
Not awkward that poor boy devoured the bread given by Sonia, even Sonia again offered other food to the child, but Ayrani refused subtly.
"I'm full, Grandma!" said Ayrani rubbed his stomach.
Sonia smiled at the boy's politeness.
"Your attitude is very similar to Halimah's, polite and gentle."
"Thank you!" Ayrani Reply.
"What if Ayra should take a bath first, Grandma has prepared clothes for you," said Sonia rubbed her grandson's hair.
Without a doubt the little girl complied. That morning was the first time for Ayrani to enjoy the atmosphere of the morning at the residence of the grandmother. Bu Dewi is in charge of taking care of Ayra, and that morning the Lady who bathed Ayrani.
"How's her sleep, Non? Miss Ayra is staying here?" said Bu Dewi who had just doused Ayrani's body and rubbed the child's body with soap.
"But where's Mama with Kak Pritha?" Ayrani was reminded of Prithaya and Akasma.
"Later Grandma Sonia will explain everything."
