The Father Boy
ALA60S. Knock the door
"But they used to buy meatballs here?" Givan pointed to the last boarding house, where his son-in-law's motorbike was parked. He felt his feet ticklish to ask himself.
"Azyu?" The bakso mentioned the name of the owner of the room.
"What's his name?" Chandra squinted her eyes.
"Azyumardi, if I'm not mistaken. You see, I remember that he was the first occupant of the boarding house with Yohana's mom." Givan and Chandra immediately locked the information.
"How much are these two meatballs?" Givan reached into his pocket.
"Twenty, sir." The meatballs have finished wrapping the meatballs of Givan and Chandra's orders.
"I give you a hundred thousand, but Brother clasped the door of Azyu's room and after opened the meatballs. Don't leave before it opens." Givan gave the money away.
The meatball was reluctant to take the money, thinking that the two men were a butcher for Azyu. But he doesn't want to think bad. He wanted to know more about who the two of them were.
"If your goals are good, I help without being hired. Moreover, it's just light work." The bakso put his palms together.
"I don't intend to make a scene here either. After Azyu opens the door, I will come back here to eat meatballs. You're still here a long time?" Chandra scratched his head, he was immediately confused and did not understand his father's plan.
"Yes, it's a long time. But frankly, who are you and what needs are there with Azyu?" The meatballs did not want anyone to get into trouble, just because he was crazy with the red money.
"I won't tell you at the beginning, for fear I'm accusing Azyu instead. I'm from a good family, I'm from the next area, coffee plantation. You can find Me if I'm doing badly in front of your eyes." Givan looks so authoritative.
"Well, I know the area. If you can tell, whose name is Father? I'm sorry, so if there's a bad incident after I've obeyed your orders, I can withdraw your name on the force." The meatball gave Chandra and Givan plastic chairs, which he took from his meat cart.
"Ananda Givan, eldest son of Dinda. Maybe that name is legendary."
The meatball directly lowered his head. "Sorry, Sir. I do not know and have never met before, if my teungku Adi, abu I had worked in him until his death. Again, sorry, sir? I know the names of my children, but I don't know what they look like." The meatballs felt bad for themselves. He knew who Adinda was, he knew what her relationship was to the man whose name he mentioned.
"No problem, Bang. I don't mean to be arrogant either, so that Brother can find Me if indeed I'm here to endanger the hostess here." Givan smiled kindly.
"Come, Sir. Let me help, it's easy, no need to love me a wage. Shodaqohan rice every month, alhamdulillah still arrived at ma. That's quite helpful, especially the kids are still looking for money like this." The meatballs invited them to go to Azyu's room.
"Thank God, that was my parents' last wish, Bang. Shodaqoh does not break up on their behalf, especially for those who are entitled to get." Givan followed the foot steps of the meatball.
"Well, I'm the big one." Chandra pulled his father's jacket.
"Gee! You're this!" Givan felt uncomfortable because of his son's behavior.
The meatball smiled faintly, then he looked at Chandra and Givan before starting to knock on the door of the room.
"Who?" The voice of the man cried out from within.
Givan knew the voice.
The knock continues to repeat, until finally the door lock is turned immediately. Vano rounded his eyes, seeing his father-in-law and his sister-in-law behind the body of his regular meatballs.
"Sir Azyu, no meatballs?" the meatballs are friendly.
"No, Bang." Azyu appeared from inside, not knowing there was someone else behind the meatballs.
The clothes are what they are, coupled with Vano who is not wearing clothes, as if making Givan dark eyes. Azyu tried to cover up her skimpy clothes, from the three men who were in front of the door of her boarding room.
A push of Givan's hand on the door of the room, showing the contents of the boarding room featuring the woman's clothes, splashed with her underwear as well. Vano's t-shirt and jacket lying near the door, added to Givan's suspicion because the hook of the jeans Vano was wearing was open.
"Oh, yeah. Yes, Brother. Sorry to bother you?" The meatball turned to his place, which Givan followed back.
Chandra scratched his head back and forth, very confused himself following his father's plan. Why didn't his father hit his sister-in-law, why did his father just shut up and act like a meatball. Chandra's head was adorned by questions surrounding his father's attitude.
Givan sat back down, in the plastic chair that the meatballs were providing. Chandra, too, just follows her father. Chandra was more confused when his father took the parcel and ate it with his eyes fixed on the half-open room of Azyu.
Vano's activities, which pick up clothes and also re-dress his clothes, became the scene of Givan. Vano came out of Azyu's room, wearing a helmet again. In fact, Vano immediately hit the gas so quickly when passing the meatball cart where Givan was still hanging out there.
Vano's goal is to go home to his wife. He would tell the story according to the version and its additions first, before his father-in-law would complain to Jasmine.
Givan just relaxed sitting there, he even noticed the bustle of the meatballs who were busy making orders for the hostess who alternately came to buy the meatballs. Chandra also follows his father who eats meatballs with his hands, because he is dizzy thinking about his father's behavior that is beyond reason.
Chandra felt that her father was not her father once. He even felt foreign, with the actions of his father.
"Buy bottled mineral water right there, bang." Givan sent Chandra and pointed at the shop that was behind the meatballs cart. He gave his son red money, which was rejected by the meatball dealer. In fact, he has not paid the price of the meatballs.
Chandra obeyed his son. He wanted to ask a lot of questions, but his father was eating. He also did not know the contents of his father's head, which was more feared because he was worried that his father was holding anger. So, he chose to obey and did not ask much.
"What is this Father's goal, sir? I was so confused myself" asked the meatballs by sitting on another plastic chair.
Givan turned to the meatball, with his mouth still chewing.
