Lailatulqadar (Song of Missing For Fathers)
Chapter 47
Qadar just got home from school. Now he is in a place where he often goes to every moment.
Qadar stood staring at the worn out gate at the time. The house of Sharif stood firmly among the houses that lined the elite complex, looking unkempt.
Qadar often secretly came to the house to make sure his father was there. Unbeknownst to Laila and the others.
The grass in the yard is sometimes clean like someone had cut it, but the house paint looks weathered and mossy. Maybe there was a gardener who was ordered by his father's family to take care of the yard. Not with the building. I don't know, that's just Qadar's estimate. He never even met the person who cleaned the yard. If only he had met that person, then Qadar would have asked that person about where his father was at this time.
Meanwhile, at the international airport, one family appeared to have just landed from the plane and now they got into one of the cars that were waiting for their arrival.
"Sir Karjo!" sahut Ambar waved at the man in his 50s wearing a black driver's uniform.
The man looked at the source of the voice calling his name.
Soon he approached and helped Ambar carry some large suitcases into the trunk of the car.
Restu who is currently 27 years old also spread his eyes around. 10 years he left this city and now for the first time he set foot in his homeland again.
The longing for a place that has stored many memories makes it happy to see the sky in this city again.
Restu rushed into the car after Syarif and Ambar first entered the blue car.
"We go back to the old house or... "
"I've sold the house, probably the day after tomorrow the people start moving and occupying our old house. Now we will stay in the apartment only, there security is more awake and tight. So I don't have to worry anymore that there will be people who can interfere with your health" Ambar said, cutting Sharif's sentence.
"So you still think that Laila and Qadar are the cause of father's disease? The doctor has explained that I've had the disease for a long time, so it's not because of them." Restu turned to the back seat where his mother and father were sitting.
"But their presence makes your father's heart crumbles and gets worse. Thankful that your father is now healed, so I don't want your father to see them again in this town. If only there was no business, it would be too lazy to come back here!" said Ambar stubbornly.
Restu breathed a long sigh at the words of his mother who always blamed Laila and Qadar for the disease his father suffered. Arguing also feels like it will only worsen the situation. Restu prefers silence rather than serving his mother's words, only added sin.
The blue car drove through the highway through the hustle and bustle of the city. Ten years have passed and a lot has changed in this city. Restu enjoyed the entire trip while glancing out the window of the car.
"Well that's the building PT. Nusantara. We'll work with the company." Restu pointed to a skyscraper that was on the left side of the road they were passing.
"How big is it, the company?" said Ambar.
"Yes Ma'am, the company has been moving forward ever since we went to Singapore. At first their company was out of town, and now it's starting to go everywhere." Restu seemed excited and impatient to meet the owner of the company who he said the CEO of the company was his age.
Since they lived in Singapore, Ambar left the management of his father's legacy company to his cousin. The only person he can trust. But when he found out his cousin died, he was forced to return to this city. Luckily Restu has been educated in Singapore, Ambar has no doubt about the ability of Restu to continue his family company.
Their car pulled over at the basemant of an apartment. As soon as they got out of the car, their driver seemed busy unloading his employer's suitcase.
"Mom, Dad. I'll take a walk for a while! Very similar to this city," Pinta Restu.
Ambar showed a suspicious expression to Restu.
"Don't you want to show yourself in front of Marni's children? Let them know that their father is back in town!" tuding Ambar's.
"This mother is suudzon, people just want to walk around here, I miss because it has not been home for a long time. If you're satisfied, I'll go home." Restu.
"Yes there. Be careful if you lie, you'll know! " threaten Ambar while waltzing away to the apartment door.
Syarif does not talk much, he does not want to trigger a fight with his wife. For ten years, Sharif had missed his two children. At first he thought the illness would take his life, he was too pessimistic. In fact until this moment he is still alive, God still gives an opportunity for him to apologize to his children.
Sharif had to find a way to meet them one day, but certainly without Ambar's knowledge. Accepted or not he by his two children, it's business later. What is clear is that he only wants to meet and apologize to Laila and Qadar for hurting them both so much.
The driver gave Restu the car keys. Restu immediately drove the vehicle out of the basemant apartment Green leaves.
Restu felt bad for his old school friends. When he moved he had not met them. Because it was his uncle who took care of all his moves to Singapore.
Restu was still curious whether Laila and Qadar were still living in Agria Regency or had even moved? And what are they like now? Restu was eager to see the big Qadar.
Restu drove his car towards Agria Regency. He might not come to Handoko's house, he just wants to pass by the complex while remembering the past he had passed with Laila.
Around the gate to the estate, Restu recalled the past when he and Laila were selling takjil on the side of the road. At that time both of them did not know if Sharif was their father. Restu put on a smile to remember those memories. The longing for Laila further disturbed his mind. Either a feeling of longing like a brother to his sister or another feeling? Restu seemed to have a hard time ascertaining his feelings.
seriate,
