Lara's Pieces (When the Ex Returns)
The Real Vero Family

Salma prepares food for Afifah and himself when Afifah changes clothes. Salma remembered that Afifah later in the afternoon wanted to be escorted by Vero during tutoring. He took his phone to call Askara, wanted to say about Vero who wanted to take Afifah lessons, but when he wanted to call her, Salma heard the doorbell ring. Salma undoes her intention to call Askara, so that later Afifah who calls alone, saying goodbye with his father can not go to tutoring with Vero.

Salma opened the front door, and her mother and father-in-law came. Binka and Zhafran come because they want to see the situation of Salma who is already pregnant, Binka has long not been to Salma's house, so he wants to visit his daughter-in-law. Salma was lucky to have two pairs of excellent in-laws with her. Ardha and Alana, who visited his house more often, were also Zhafran and Binka who were very good with Salma.

“Mama, papa?” salma hugged Binka and Zhafran.

“You're healthy, Son?” ask Binka.

“Health, Mom. Come on in, Ma, Pa,” replied Salma then took her in-laws inside.

“Afifah .. This is Opa Zhafran same Oma Binka, Son!” Salma shouted a little to call Afifah who was in his room. When he heard the opa and oma coming, he was immediately excited and came out of his room.

“Opa ... Oma ...” Afifah immediately embraced his opa and oma. “Opa same oma kok old new here?” ask Afifah.

“Opa is busy, darling. This is just a new opa coming home from out of town,” replied Zhafran. “You are big now, want SMA yes a few more months?

“Ih still long opa? Did Afifah just get into third grade? Another few months? Still a long time, Opa? There are still eight months, Afifah people here have not been three months?” afifah.

“Oh yes, but like a long time moved here, yes?” zhafran.

“Papa is too busy, so we have been here for a long time, Pa,” said Salma. “Yuk lunch together? I cooked for lunch a bit earlier, because maybe friends Afifah eat here together,” said Salma.

“Friend Afifah? Who's the girl or the guy?” ask Binka.

“Cowok, Mom. His girlfriend maybe?” answer Salma.

“You already have a girl, Fah? Who?” ask Zhafran.

“Ih not yet, not dating, Just friends,” Afifah replied. “Opa time don't know anyway? Did Opa Ardha not say the same opa?” ask Afifah to Zhafran.

“Indeed why Opa Ardha?” ask Zhafran.

“That Afifah's friend is not his grandson Opa Ardha's friend, he said opa also know? His name is Opa Alka, his grandson is Vero,” Afifah explained.

“Alka's granddaughter? Daren probably yes, Pa?” binka asked Zhafran.

“You're close to him?” zhafran asked Afifa.

“Iya, opa,” answer.

Zhafran only nodded, he knew who Daren was. Not sure why Ardha even introduced Afifah to his grandson Alka. Zhafran knew who Daren was, and what Daren was. Daren has a dark business, he's a liquor supplier and an illegal arms business overseas. Surely Daren's son is not far from his actions with Daren. Either in terms of likes to change partners, or like to make friends with the glitter of the night world. Somehow Daren can be much different from Alka who is not like that. Even Zhafran, who lived in Berlin for a long time, took care of his op company, never touched the world of illegal and illicit business.

“Ardha ... Ardha .. does he know anything about Daren? Well, do we all know how the Alka family is? But, she should also know what Daren's dark business is? Indeed the Daren business is closed, not much known to people, I just know because I was invited by my friend who had a dark transaction with Daren time in New York?” inner Zhafran.

“Opa, know Opa Alka, right?” ask Afifah.

“Yes know,” replied Afifah. “But, don't date just yet, Fah? Opa the hell you want to focus on learning,” said Zhafran.

“Iya, Fah. Right your ops,” connect Binka.

Afifah just nodded, after all he was close to Vero because he wanted to be like his friends who already had a girlfriend. The driver felt like his friend left and went home from school together on a motorbike like other school children. “Kok Opa Zhafran same Oma Binka like not like me with Kak Vero, huh? Mother also looks like that?” inner Afifa.

Afifah was eventually allowed by his father to go tutoring with Vero. Though Zhafran did not like his grandson close to his grandson Alka, who was none other than his son Daren. Zhafran feared that Vero would be the same as his papa who likes the night world and changing girlfriends.

“You allow them, Aska?” asked Zhafran who was still in Askara's house.

“Yes okay, Pa? Vero is a good boy. He's polite, he's smart too, not really his son?” answer Askara.

“Lha is clear, isn't it, Pa? She's Om Alka's granddaughter?” answer Askara.

“Not that, you know Daren, right?” ask Zhafran.

“Know, Pa?” answer Askara.

“If you know, surely you also know what Daren Business, right?”

“Business Daren? He's been a coal businessman for a long time, hasn't he, Pa? Continue to have a property business as well, and other businesses he said. He also arrived abroad sometimes, even rarely come home if it was there,” explained Askara.

“Yes is right, but you'll never know the truth, Askara. Papa did not expect Daren to have a business like that,” said Zhafran.

“What business do you mean?” ask Ask Askara.

“You must not believe that Daren has a dark business. You could say he's the head of the mafia. Yes papa anyway also initially do not believe, finally papa knows his business, papa see for himself, it's also papa secretly, because the business he closed, especially with close relatives, he will not tell him, he will not tell him, even the same papa he did not dare to say the business was,” explained Zhafran.

Zhafran told me everything. He knew all that too from his friend, because his friend at that time needed a weapon for nothing. While abroad Zhafran invited his friend to meet some people who look like mafia, meeting also in a closed place, but Zhafran did not dare to get out of the car, he said, he just watched from inside the car, it turns out Deren joined those who carry suitcases filled with weapons and also prohibited items such as drugs. Zhafran pretended not to know anything, he was silent with his friend, he was just ordinary, as if he knew nothing, and slowly decided to move away from his friend, because for Zhafran it is not healthy to be friends with such a person.

“Papa sure Daren has that business?” ask Ask Askara.

“Yakin, papa see for yourself, really. Papa didn't say anything because it didn't matter, but papa is far away from the Alka family?” answer Zhafran.

“It's worth Daren looks wah once, from his house just like a palace so?” askara.

“Papa sure Dimas also know about the dark business Daren,” said Zhafran.

“Kok papa nebak that?” ask Ask Askara.

“You don't seem to know Dimas? He looks ordinary, but he has strong people around him, but that doesn't mean Dimas is also on the black trail.”.

“I'm thinking of Afifah, huh? Where is he going with Vero again?” askara.

“Ya I hope there's nothing. Vero is still in High School, will he be like his papa? Maybe biased so if later he went to college, and ready to be taught business science by his father. Fear later Daren taught his son to play dark like himself,” said Zhafran.

“Ya could be anyway, Pa? Moreover, Vero is the only son of Daren right, Pa?” askara.

“Iya, Vero is Daren's only child, and you know that Daren hasn't been married since his wife died. You know, the death of his wife Daren alone is still mysterious?” zhafran.

“Iya, he said died in an accident, his car caught fire, and his body was also charred in flames, not left,” Askara replied.

“Well that's the awkwardness, some say the car was deliberately set on fire, some say this, so, don't know which one is right. There are also those who say because they know the Daren dark business, so Daren killed his wife,” explained Zhafran.

Askara thought variously, he was afraid that his daughter if she went out with Vero and married later, then knew his in-laws business, would even have problems with Afifah. “Hopefully Afifah does not really like Vero. I don't want my son to be a victim. Duh was dad ngizinin they walk first again?” askara.

“Already, mother sure Afifah not too like Vero, if he really likes the same Vero, he would want to be invited by Vero on his way home from school earlier? The proof Afifah still listens always to our advice?” salma.

“Yes, hopefully Afifah does not like Vero. Mama is also afraid of it, yes you guys have been quiet, even though you already know about Daren, let her enjoy her dark business, there will also be a reply,” said Binka.

“Later papa will tell your father, he is still the same, he likes it so,” Zhafran told Salma.

“Iya, Pa," replied Salma.

“You need not worry, Afifah must be fine,” said Zhafran.

Zhafran was also a little worried about his grandson being close to his Mafia son. But Zhafran thought positively, if Afifah is okay, and did not like Vero, just a friend only.
