The Successor of the Family
By Dong!

Alan continued to chatter with Rivan's brother Naufal on his lap. Of course Naufal could only stare innocently at Alan. He did not understand at all what was said by Alan and only responded with a voice that was not clear.

"By the way, Opal." upset Alan because Naufal did not reply to any of his questions.

"Hey... His name was Naufal, not Opal." - Arnold scolded his sister.

"Isa... Cucah. Taeak Alan nih you know, it looks like it's called" Alan said in a snobbish tone.

Rivan, who knew that Alan had trouble pronouncing his sister's name, also understood him. So if now Alan calls him Opal, Rivan doesn't mind. Arnold looked cynically at his sister because he remembered an incident that made everyone upset.

"Damf... Now it's just arrogant because Alan's name is easy to pronounce. It used to be the same as the girl so Michael" said Arnold staring cynically at his sister.

"Abang nih ndak tau cala pdtt cama wewek. Tuh bial invert pelhatian talna namana tayak olang lual negli. Muta Alan tan uga dah tayak gule-gule in cana, lih lambut becok want Alan walnain ijo" said Alan with confidence.

Haha...

Upon hearing Alan's words, Rivan and Arnold laughed. They really didn't expect Alan to say that. Moreover, one day his hair will be colored green as he said it. It's a good fit that Alan's a comedian.

"Chicken gule or goat gule?" asked Ridho who also laughed at his master's son.

"Butan gule tu. The fire of gule that olang lual negli you know," cried Alan who did not accept because what he meant was not in line with Ridho's thinking.

Ridho, Arnold, and Rivan are completely upset by Alan's obscure remarks. Wanted for Arnold that his sister would continue to lisp like this. But of course time will continue to run and Alan will grow into an adult with all its advantages.

"Ndak said lepot-lepot, ante. Ladian tami cebental ladi or re-tok." said Alan who refused when Rivan's mother provided some snacks for his son's guests.

"It's okay. It's as it is" said Rivan's mother.

Rivan's mother will also not be happy when there are guests but not treated to anything. So as much as possible if still presenting something even though it is just the way it is. In honor of Rivan's mother who had bothered to buy him a snack, Alan and Arnold ate it.

Arnold fed his sister because both hands were still tightly hugging Naufal from behind. Alan did not want to release Naufal for a second. Though Rivan's mother had asked Naufal to enter his carrier but Alan did not want to give it.

"Let's go home, it's late in the afternoon" Arnold asked, looking at his watch.

Alan frowned annoyed at the invitation from his brother. Because he still wants to be here but his brother even invited him home. Alan was playing with Naufal as if the boy had his own world. Arnold talks to Rivan and his mother.

"Kan Naufal's home here, deck. Yes, you want to separate Naufal from his mother and brother," said Arnold gave understanding.

"Tomorrow when you can come here again for Naufal's jengukin. We're not going to forbid Alan from meeting and playing with Naufal anyway" Rivan's mother helped Arnold persuade Alan.

Alan looked very sad when he was going to part with Naufal. Even his embrace of Naufal he did not let go at all. Alan was so fond of the little boy that even his teeth had just grown two seeds. Arnold felt sorry for Alan who seemed to be very sad about this separation.

"This rope is caja. Opal itut tita ya, ninap at home. Invite ibuna and Livan, or please." said Alan with teary eyes.

Arnold was confused by the request from his sister. Arnold looked at Ridho who had been silent. Arnold coded Ridho to call his papa for an opinion. Tonight, Nadia who will be at home accompanies Alan and Arnold.

While Andre will look after Abel and Anara who can not be far from his twin. Ridho nodded his head then slightly away from them. Rivan's mother seemed confused because it seemed impossible if she had to stay at her son's friend's house. He did not want to trouble others with his presence and his two children.

"Said Mr. Andre, it is permissible for your friends to stay at home. Your mother is also at home" Ridho said after contacting his employer.

"Holmes... Matacih Lidho's uncle who ndak anteng. Pototna Alan is shady baby cama brother Anol," said Alan while chuckling amusedly.

Because Alan is saying thanks to Ridho but even like mocking him. In fact, he expressed his affection for Arnold compared to Ridho who helped him. Ridho also did not discuss what was said by Alan because he had understood the child of his master that one.

"Mom, Rivan... Come with us and stay at home. Our parents have allowed you to stay the night" Arnold said.

Of course Rivan and his mother were confused because they did not want to later even trouble the Arnold family. But seeing the gaze of Alan who was so hopeful that they stayed at his house also finally made the two nod their heads.

"Brothers... Come Uncle Lidho. Antu dendong Opal dong, Alan ndak this strong you know. Uncle Lidho mah ndak map," Alan said as he pursed his lips in annoyance.

"Let me hold Naufal" said Rivan's mother, who felt bad for Ridho.

"It's okay, ma'am. Please you can take care of clothes or other items that will be brought to stay overnight" said Ridho.

Rivan and his mother nodded their heads and prepared clothes and other items. There are not many clothes that they carry because they do not have much stuff. Rivan's mother also immediately leave her house to the neighbors so that later if anyone looks for her can immediately give an answer.

Everyone who saw Rivan's mother and her two children leave smiled. They were not envious because Rivan's family could ride a luxury car and go with the rich. They are actually happy and hope that the descendants can all be good friends with rich people who do not discriminate their friendships.

"Be careful. Don't forget to come back soon" one resident exclaimed to Rivan and his family who waved his hand with the car window open.
