Not only was Lilian's chest tight, but there was someone whose heart was much more painful than her - Ephina. Which strong mother heard the child she had raised so much affection in front of her own. True, Keira is not the Princess of her womb.
As a child Efina raised Keira as Princess, feeling sorry for her frail body lying weakly on the sidewalk. Although at that time Efina was just married to Rahadian but a sense of motherhood suddenly appeared to see Keira. Feeling fit and having an inner bond with Keira, Efina finally raises Keira to be her first Princess.
Although Keira is his adopted daughter, Efina does not accept that anyone else would say that Keira is just a child. Ephina raising and loving Keira was as great as the affection given to Lilian. That's why his two daughters love each other so much.
Keira was always the first child to look after her sister, and Keira grew up to be a very kind and polite child to Efina and Rahadian. For both, there is no word of adoptive children and biological children for both Daughters. All they know is that the two are princesses they must always protect.
Rahadian also felt unacceptable if there are people who call Keira as his adopted child. "Keira is our son Pah ... No one can change that fact." Rahadian said firmly.
"She is your daughter but not my granddaughter!! Arisena's descendant!!" Papa Efina's.
"He doesn't need the Arisena clan!! My two daughters must not bear the Arisena clan behind her name!! They still had the figure of a Father who would always protect them and meet their needs!!" Efina cried out after hearing her father's words.
"You may not need it, but not my grandson!!" Papa Efina said firmly.
Efina immediately drew Lilian's hand close and held her daughter's hand very tightly. "He is my daughter! I gave birth and raised her with both hands ... Although I have to go back and forever not considered a child ... I'll never let go of my daughter." Efina's tears finally wet her cheeks.
"DANINE!!" Papa Efina's voice echoed throughout the living room.
"Enough Pah! They are my wife and children! Whoever it is, including Papa, has no right to take it from me!" Rahadian said firmly.
"Be quiet you're Rahadian! You've been taking my sister away and hiding her whereabouts ... Today instead of coming to apologize you're making it all up." This time Abraham made a sound.
Abraham was the second son of Mahatama Arisena (Grandfather Lilian), since then he just kept quiet and listened. But Abraham spoke only after Rahadian said his own possession of Ephina and Lilian.
"What's runyam Bang?" Efina looked directly into Abraham's eyes. "If you forget, I will remind you!! That day ... The day after my wedding day, we came asking for blessing ... But what happened that day? You guys even hit my husband and said I'm not a member of Arisena's extended family!!" Ephina vented all the emotions she had stored in her heart.
Efina's body trembled and her eyes stared at her daughter who had been crying since when. Efina's heart felt the pain of seeing her daughter now. Efina's intentions will speak well to her Papa but unexpectedly Tama even discuss about Keira which makes the atmosphere uncontrollable.
This is not what Rahadian and Ephina wanted. Both were eager to speak slowly to their daughter about their origins. But everything is out of control, Rahadian and Efiana are afraid of Lilian's mental state now. His daughter is too young to accept all the pressure from her family.
Zoya, the mother of Rein can understand the feelings Efina is feeling right now. For this reason Zoya told her son Rein to take Lilian away a little.
"Rein take Lilian away to see this mension!" Zoya said by giving the code to her Son.
"Why should Lilian go? Let him stay here and see all these events ... Sooner or later Lilian will find out if Arisena's blood flows in her blood." Sardonic Tama.
"Mahs ... Let Lilian go! This matter need not involve them. Let Rahadian and Ephina alone explain it to Lilian later ... They were small and did not understand the current situation." Said Hans, Father of Rein.
Tama no longer refuted, He allowed Lilian and her other brothers to leave them in the living room. Those kids don't need to get much pressure anymore and it's best that they leave.
After receiving approval from many people, Rein and two other boys took Lilian away. Let the parents solve a problem that has not been solved for a long time.
________________
Arisena Family
The current head of Arisena's family is Mahatama (Grandfather Lilian), who has a wife named Marina (Grandmother Lilian). They have three children, two sons and a daughter.
The first child was named Hans Arisena and had a wife named Zoya Arisena. They have a son named Rein. The second son, Abraham, has a wife named Calista, and they have twin sons named Daren and Diran, who are fourteen years old. The third child was Efina Arisena, the only daughter of Arisena's family.
From childhood Efina was very dear to both her parents and her two brothers. Efina only needs to say what she wants, so her parents and her two brothers will try to fulfill it.
Being born as the only daughter made Efina very spoiled. Of the three children of Mahatama only Hans who lowered the eye color typical of the Arisena school and that also made him appointed as the next successor of the Arisena family.
Hans was appointed as the successor to the family does not mean his two younger siblings got nothing from the family business. His second brother Abraham managed all branches of the hotel owned by the Arisena family both domestically and abroad. The right was given based on consideration and his skills in managing hospitality.
Efina herself is very fond of the culinary world, since childhood she really likes to play cooking. That liking grew into a habit so Efina had talent in the culinary world. That's why Efina got the right to manage all the restaurants owned by the Arisena family.
In the early days of Zoya's pregnancy, Efina's first brother's wife always craved the food of the market hawker so that Efina was the one who always fulfilled her request.
Until one day, when Efina was looking for food that Zoya wanted, she accidentally met Rahadian who was working part-time in one of the big stores.
At the first meeting, Efina immediately fell in love with Rahadian. Not only an expert in handling customers, but Rahadian took his free time to learn. From then on, Efina always goes to the market for food that Zoya wants.
Efina at that time still holds the title of final student just like Rahadian who will also soon leave the title and appear a new degree behind his name.
Because of Efina's beautiful and excellent appearance, Rahadian also immediately fell in love with her. Their relationship changes over time from shopkeeper and buyer to friend and continues to be lover.
The days that both passed were so beautiful that the day they both studied in different campuses. Efina attended one of the elite campuses while Rahadian attended one of the regular state campuses with the help of scholarships.
After the two finished their graduation, Rahadian applied for a job with the best value that he got to one of the big companies, Ganendra group and was immediately accepted as an intern for three months.
Because of Rahadian's handsome face, many women tried to approach him and it always made Efina feel very jealous. Efina always asked Rahadian to propose to her Papa Tama, but Rahadian always felt small. Efina was born to a family of high social status while she was just a child who had to fight for her own life after the death of her parents.
This made Efina angry and decided not to see Rahadian for a week. Because Rahadian loved Ephina so much, she finally agreed to her lover's wish. But what concerns Rahadian happened.
Tama Papa of Efina strongly opposed the relationship between the two. Tama felt that if her daughter was born with a lot of wealth and has a spoiled character, how could Rahadian meet the needs of her daughter. Rahadian is just an intern and has nothing to reason for Tama accepting him as a daughter-in-law.
Tama felt that Rahadian was only using her daughter to raise her status. The day Rahadian first met Tama, he was immediately expelled and was not allowed to enter his ministry again. It made Efina shut herself in the room and did not want to eat anything.
Although Efina's body was already very weak, Tama was still at her initial decision. Efina finally ventured out of her ministry and went to look for Rahadian.
After meeting, Efina forced Rahadian to marry her immediately because according to Efina his father would approve of the relationship if they had already married.
In order that no one would disturb the two in their marriage ceremony, the two agreed to marry with the help of several witnesses from Efina and Rahadian's friends. Until the lawful word binds the two into a husband and wife.
The day after her marriage, Efina and Rahadian go together to the Missions of the Arisena family. But before the two entered the courtyard of the mension, some servants of the Arisena family came out and threw all the goods from Ephina.
Tama drove Efina away from her family and would disenfranchise her as a child of the Arisenan family. Tama is so angry when she finds out that Efina has gone to choose a new man she knows rather than the family who raised her with great affection.
Tama even hit Rahadian until the man no longer moved. Efina only felt that her world had collapsed after Tama very firmly kicked her out straight away and no longer considered her as a child anymore.
With tears in her eyes, Efina went with Rahadian after her husband came to his senses. Efina did not even take any of the things her servant had brought out, Efina felt it was no longer appropriate to wear things from people who no longer considered them to exist.
After that day, Efina just sat in silence without speaking a word to Rahadian every day. Sometimes he cried without making a sound so that Rahadian no longer worried about him. But Rahadian always knew what Ephina was feeling, so Rahadian promised in his heart that she would make Efina happy and not feel any lack of affection.
After a month of apprenticeship, Rahadian is transferred to another City, so she has to take Efina with her. On the way to the city, Efina finds Keira lying helpless on a sidewalk. Efina feels Keira is similar to her but Efina still has Rahadian beside her while Keira has no one around. Efina finally decides to take Keira away with her after she gets the approval of Rahadian.
Elsewhere, Tama regretted driving her daughter away after she saw the memories she had left behind. Tama's heart was as sliced as a knife looking at the items she deliberately chose none of which Efina had brought.
Tama deliberately told the waiter to bring Efina's expensive belongings and throw them in front of her daughter. Tama hopes his daughter sells these items and the money he can build a business as his initial capital. But expectations are not in accordance with reality. Never mind to sell it, not bring it.
Tama eventually decides to rediscover the whereabouts of her daughter. He will gladly accept Rahadian into his family from happy Ephina. But the search did not produce results, every place or every corner of the Jakarta area has been traced but there has been no news about the Daughter.
Tama had not eaten for days because she felt guilty for driving her daughter away. Both Abang Efina also helped in the search but Efina's whereabouts are still undiscovered.
Every year they were informed of Efina's whereabouts, but they always came late because Efina always moved after they came. Efina always left without leaving a trace, making her search difficult.
A dozen years later, Tama and the Arisenas were still searching for Ephina, but there was no clue to their search. So that one day a hospital located in Bandung informed the patient on behalf of Lilian Caroline Rahadian was being treated there.
With a quick step Tama immediately mobilized the search team to check the truth. Tama finally got a report if the patient was the grandson of the son of Efina. But in addition to the information about Lilian, information about Keira also joined the file about Lilian.
Tama is eager to see Efina but other news comes again from Tama's informant who says if Efina will move back to Jakarta and will settle there. Tama finally had to wait until her daughter actually returned home after a dozen years of leaving.
