Don't Cry Mother
JMJ 86. Not Giving Up

As the day went on, Oma Carolina was getting healthier. The decision to move all assets on Tara's behalf has been made. Before the age of 20 years Tara, Kaluna will set everything as a guardian.

Carolina is taken by Vanka back to their home. Raffan clearly agreed, that there were only two people at home now there are 3 people.

Unlike the condition of Yasa's house, Kaluna was whining that morning. Tumben once, Yasa to be confused with the act of the wife. Kaluna asked to go to the plantation. He wants to eat rice liwet made by Zalfa, strange is not it. Just met a few times suddenly want dimasakin.

" But it's still morning, after all we don't know Zalfa, baby."

" There will be Zion mas, itung-itung nyomblangin Zion. I know Zion likes Zalfa."

Yasa furrowed his brows, since when did his wife interfere with other people's affairs. But in the end Yasa resigned. He will follow the will of his wife.

The man then contacted Zion and expressed his intentions. He also contacted Mbok Yem and Mang Didi, saying that they would stay a few days at the villa. Luckily Yasa had not returned to campus so he could still do many things, as now obey the will of his wife who he thought was strange.

Across there Zion can only stare. His mouth was wide open. How did he say his sister-in-law's wish to the girl. First he doesn't have Zalfa's cell phone number, second this is really early in the morning. It was inappropriate to come to Zalfa's house early in the morning to ask for help.

Amidst the confusion of the young man, the girl who was being targeted by Kaluna to make rice droplet passed in front of Zion's house. Seeprti given a facility, Zion immediately ran to meet Zalfa.

" Neng Za, hang on!" Call Zion to Zalfa.

" Eh kang, what's wrong?" answer Zalfa briefly. He must go to the market immediately. Saturday is how he taught her to take a holiday.

" Gini, actually. Confused as well." Zion was confused to convey Kaluna's wishes. Where there are people who do not know closely ask to be made food.

" What's up, Kang?" asked Zalfa, repeating what she said earlier.

" I'd actually like to ask Za for help. Kak Yasa called, suddenly Kaluna wanted rice liwet but he asked you to make it. Naah is weird. Away from town ask you here to make it."

Instead of feeling astonished, Zalfa instead smiled wryly and nodded. He responded to Kaluna's wishes conveyed through Zion. Although Zion was a little surprised why Zalfa immediately agreed but Zion was grateful. He also took the initiative to deliver Zalfa to the market using his car. Zalfa agreed with Zion's idea.

During the journey, Zion's heart continues to beat faster than its normal size. One car with Zalfa apparently brought something quite surprising. Zion's palms were sweating, and she did not dare to look at the girl.

" Aduuuh kok gini the taste. Buseet why can gin deg-degan anyway. Used to be the same car Klara, doi wear clothes less material only I was ordinary," Inner Zion. Heart rages. Original he can not linger alone with Zalfa.

" Neng Za?"

" Yes kang?"

" Have a candidate yet?"

Zion chuckled amusedly but one corner of her lips lifted up. It seems that Zalfa is still completely free. " Okay mom, dad, get ready to propose."

At Yasa's residence, the husband and wife seemed to be preparing. If Kaluna does not need to bring clothes then it is different from Yasa. He does not have a lot of clothes in stock there, so Kaluna helps Yasa to tidy up some clothes that will be taken to the Villa.

While in the studio and gallery Tara did not stop staring at the orders of paintings owned by middle east people. Dhiaurrahman Zahid Hamizan, that's the name of the person who ordered the painting to Tara.

Tara again tried to look at every corner of the painting and compare it with the photo that the person sent her as an example.

" I'm sure he didn't make the request. In the photo, there is no traveler only one person with one camel. But why did he ask to describe many travelers. Moreover, he asked to describe someone who was tied up and pulled with a camel. Wait, this isn't right."

Tara seemed to find something. He then took a photo of his painting and sent it to Mr. Suns. In Tara's mind it might be a code. Before getting an answer from Mr. Sun the boy went back to looking at his painting.

" The pyramid was in country M, he kept asking to be described as an infinite desert, even though everyone knew the location of the Egyptian pyramid was not exactly in the middle of the desert. Then there are pictures of people tied up and pulled by camels. Astagfirullah lest this code that there is a syndicate of human slavery."

Tara became angry. He wants to contact Mr. Sun came back but his mother's call made the boy run down. He immediately covered the painting with a cloth and rushed out. Tara did not want to make both her parents wait and be suspicious. Without Tara knowing, Yasa and Kaluna are preparing to interrogate her son.

Knowing the perfection of Tara's painting a few nights ago made Yasa and Kaluna a little worried about what the son actually did. Tara is like an introvert and anti-social. Evidently he did not want to go to school at all and preferred to confine himself in his painting studio.

" What is Tara doing hmm?"

" No well, used to paint."

Tara answered her father's question so briefly, densely, and clearly. Yasa and Kaluna who heard Tara's reply only snorted softly. It seems they should talk in a calm condition. Maybe they should talk later tonight at the villa, that's what's inside Yasa's head.

" Okay boy let's go. Looks like we're not a holiday far away, mother wants to go to the villa."

" Okay, wherever you want to follow."

All chuckles small. Kaluna kissed her son's cheek and took the son to the car. They're ready to head for the villa. One good thing approached them. Both Yasa and Kaluna felt that everything started to run quietly. But not with Tara, when a message came in on her phone. Not an email message but a message in a chat application.

" Hello Raka Pittore. Long time no see. Eeh, we've never met ya. But not long after the song we'll meet. Wait for me to come, as I said. I'm gonna mess with your family if you don't want to obey your will."

" Hanson O' Connel, that guy hasn't given up either."
