Happiness Does Not Have to be Rich

Happiness Does Not Have to be Rich
Kaivan lonely


Today Kaivan looks very busy with work in the office. The work Azzam was supposed to do now moved to his desk. Mr. Zaid has handed over the office of President to his son and wants to focus on taking care of his wife.


" Sir, why are you?" asked Deni when he saw Kaivan daydreaming.


" Can you not call me 'Master'...?" grunt Kaivan.


Deni smiled then sat down in front of Kaivan who was separated by a table. Kaivan looks very different from before.


" Kai, what are you thinking? Soon there will be a meeting with a client from Bandung."


" There is no Mas Azzam and Zahra is lonely. Usually soon brother-in-law will come to bring food for us."


" Now you feel like you have a new family?"


" Right, Al Farizy's family was very kind to me. His affection is also sincere even though my family has been bad to them."


Kaivan busied himself with a pile of files on his desk. Although now his life is free, but loneliness hit his heart. At the end of the day, he never felt lonely with Zahra. The woman who is now his sister-in-law is very attentive to him. Teach about love and kindness, the true meaning of family.


At lunchtime, Kaivan walks into Mr. Zaid's office. Because Azzam rarely came to the office, Mr. Zaid returned to help Kaivan.


" Assalamu'alaikum, Pa." said Kaivan.


" Wa'alaikumsalam, what's wrong, Kai?" reply Mr. Zaid.


" We're having lunch together, Pa."


" Just go home, Kai. Mama asked us to come home."


" Yes, just use Kai's car, Pa."


Kaivan and Mr. Zaid walked out of the office. All the employees stared at them in surprise because they were not usually together.


" Will Azzam not come home, Kai?"


" Must be home, Pa. Mas Azzam only took a moment so that his wife's son could accept what had actually happened in Mas Azzam's past."


" What do you mean...?"


" When Mas Azzam married Brother Zahra, he said that he was an orphan and had no place to live. Maybe Zahra's sister was just in shock because the person who had been her husband was a conglomerate and still had a whole family."


" It's all my fault, Kai. Papa can't take good care of Rahma and Azzam."


" No, Pa. Papa has done his best, Kai feels very grateful to be accepted into the Papa family. Mama Rahma even accepted Kai a long time ago, Pa. My affection is sincere to me, not like Mami."


" You're my son too, Kai. Never feel lonely and alone. Azzam can also accept you as his sister now."


" It's all because of Zahra, Pa. Zahra's brother persuaded Mas Azzam to accept Kai. Brother Zahra also made me remember the Lord again. He's like the angelic incarnation that gives the light of happiness in our family."


" Papa was also convinced, Azzam was not wrong in choosing a life partner."


Kaivan clasped Mr. Zaid's palm tightly as they got into the car. The middle-aged man's gaze was very shady making Kaivan with his dead Papa.


" Can Kai hug Papa? Kai could see Papi's affection in Papa."


" Of course, son. You're my son too, just like Azzam. Papa and Mama are very happy because after that painful event, now Papa and Mama get two very handsome sons."


Kaivan to tears haru in the arms of his stepfather. It was as warm as it was when he was a kid.


' Papi, I miss you so much. Even where you're buried Kai was never told' Kaivan lirih in heart.


" Pa, Kai already knows who Papi's family is. Can Kai visit them?"


" Go! Who is your Papi family?"


" Papi is the son of Edward Kyle, his grandfather Sakti... Kaivan's new driver that time."


" Edward Kyle, is he the owner of Secret Agent 'Tiger White'?"


" Right, Pa. Sakti is the full name of Bimantara Sakti Kyle. He came because of brother Zahra's request to help Mama and Papa."


" Where did Zahra know Tiger White? In Indonesia, only big businessmen can hire their services."


" Sister Zahra is one of Tiger White's finest members, Pa. Zahra joined Tiger White's core team before marrying Mas Azzam."


Kaivan immediately drove his car out of the office because he did not want Mama Rahma to wait too long.

" Wa'alaikumsalam, you're finally home too. Mama has been waiting for me." said Mama Rahma.


" I'm sorry, Ma. This hour the streets are jammed, so it's a little late to go home" Kaivan said.


" Azzam when to go home? Does Zahra not want to live here?" Mama Rahma looks sad.


" It's not that Brother Zahra won't, Ma. He's there working, he can't just leave. As a teacher in the village it was very difficult to find a replacement. Bang Rayyan had to wait a month to resign."


Kaivan knows that Mama Rahma only misses her son who has long lived away from her. But Kaivan also if Azzam could not leave his son and wife.


" Kaivan's right, Ma. Azzam also has to take care of his company there. Even his company was growing very rapidly this year, not even the restaurant he built now penetrated to Bali." said Mr. Zaid.


" Later if Zahra's off work tell her to play here, Kai?" pinta Mama Rahma's.


" Yes, Ma. Kai will say the same to Brother Zahra."


" Let's eat, why keep talking. Papa is laper."


After lunch, Kaivan went up to his room because Mr. Zaid did not return to the office, so Kaivan went along to skip work.


Kaivan took off the white shirt he wore and left only a white shirt that printed his body clearly.


" Huft's... There's usually Zahra's brother accompanying me here. Now deserted kayak in the forest, no one nagging when the time shubuh." complained Kaivan.


While busy daydreaming, suddenly his phone rang. He immediately grabbed the phone he put beside his pillow. He quickly pressed the green button when he saw the name on his phone screen.


Kaivan: "Assalamu'alaikum, Brother."


Zahra: " Wa'alaikumsalam, Kai. Sounds like you're excited, something's making you happy?"


Kaivan: "Kai happy brother Zahra phone. Just know that from the morning Kai thought of brother-in-law."


Zahra: "Grab your ass, Kai. Istighfar!"


Kaivan: "What's Zahra's sister? Tumben call Kai first?"


Zahra: "Look, Kai... Yesterday Mas Azzam took me to Bali for the opening of a new branch of RAZ Restaurant, how do you think?"


Kaivan: "When to Bali?"


Zahra: "Maybe it's Saturday, because it's Sunday morning."


Kaivan: "Sister come along, leave from Jakarta so Rama is left here. It's a pity that if you take it away, my niece could get sick."


Zahra: "It's gonna trouble you, Kai."


Kaivan: "No, Brother. Rama is safe with me, Papa and Mama miss you too. Go home for a while."


Zahra: "Well, I'll talk to Mas Azzam."


Kaivan: "Look at the future, brother. The past is the past, never make the past an excuse to make things difficult for yourself."


Zahra: "I don't understand what you're saying, Kai."


Kaivan: "Im sorry for Mas Azzam's lies in the past. She didn't intend to trick you, Mami wanted to kill Mas Azzam's life that time."


Zahra: "Yes, I will accept whatever Mas Azzam is now. Mama Rahma also told me about Mas Azzam meeting me."


Kaivan: "This is my beautiful sister-in-law."


Zahra: "Oh yes, I want Rama to sleep first. Assalamu'alaikum."


Kaivan: "Ohalaikumsalam."


Kaivan rested his body on the bed and closed his eyes to rest both his body and mind.
