The Substitute Mother for Zahra
56

Because saturated in the apartment without doing anything finally Radit out of the apartment. At present his mind has been fixed on one place that is Dion housing, although Dion housing area elite area but security there is not too tight guard. Radit could be free to enter and exit without suspicion.

Radit drove his car slowly, his eyes looking at the park area in the area. Lots of kids playing there. Radit stopped his car and saw from the inside if there was someone he was looking for.

Long enough Radit looked towards the park but did not find the little boy he was looking for who was none other than Zahra. Radit finally returned to his car and stopped in front of Dion's house.

Empty and lonely, like there's no sign of anyone at home. Radit tries to get out of his car and approaches Dion's fence. Seeing Zahra's bike looks neat in the yard like it's not used today. Radit thought maybe Zahra was being invited to go out and finally Radit chose to return to the car. Just one step turned around, Radit heard the fence of the house open.

"Who's it looking for?" ask the middle-aged woman Radit believes is the housekeeper at Dion's house.

"Egh, quiet yes ma'am I think there is no one" said Radit scratched his head that is not itchy, confused because it feels caught.

"His order is Baras what Den Dion?" ask Bik Inah who made Radit go silent for quite a while.

"Come in first or Den, let Bibik call Neng Larasnya" said Bik Inah opened the door and let in.

Radit who actually just wanted to look from afar had to go in and find Zahra than he got into trouble later better he found Zahra clearly.

Radit sat on Dion's living room couch, scooping his face in frustration and nervousness.

Before long a young woman came out while holding Zahra, looking at him in wonder.

Radit tried to smile even though his lips were heavy.

"Who are you looking for?" the question of Dion's wife Laras disperse Radit's influence on Zahra.

"Zahra.." Radit unwittingly mentioned his daughter's name which immediately made Dion's wife look surprised and walked backwards.

"BIKK INAAAHHH..." The Shouts of Laras instantly shocked Zahra and Radit as well.

"Eh yes Non?" Bik Inah ran towards Laras in a state of panic, as this was the first time Laras called out to him in a very loud voice.

"Please bring Zahra up Bik, if you need to lock the door to his room" said Laras with a tone of fear that certainly also makes Bik Inah afraid.

Quickly Bik Inah took Zahra and carried her upstairs.

"Mama.." Zahra's shrill voice calling for Laras made Radit's heart beat, he knew what Laras was afraid of doing like this.

"Relax, I'm not a bad person" Radit said, trying to appease Laras, who looked at him with hate.

"So you, that jerk who got my sister pregnant and didn't want to take responsibility?" asked Laras in a cynical voice.

"Sister?" Radit was still confused by Laras' speech.

"Yes, Naya the woman you have smeared and hamili is my sister!"

Radit now understands, it turns out that Dion's new wife is his own sister-in-law. Radit does not know about the family Naya and also does not know if Naya has a sister as beautiful as Laras.

It is fitting that Zahra could easily accept Laras as his replacement Mama thought Radit.

"I'm sorry." Radit's voice sounded.

"I'm sorry? is it that easy?" cynical Laras.

"Even my brother is dead and you are a jerk who has made him suffer" said Laras and did not feel his tears coming.

"I'm not the first man."

"It wasn't me who was the first to desecrate Naya, before me, Naya had indeed been tarnished." Radit explained making Laras shake in disbelief.

"No, it's impossible for Naya to be like that."

"But that's the reality, I'm not the first man to tarnish Naya. that's one of the reasons I wasn't responsible at the time." Radit said.

"So you consider my Brother a whore?"

"No, not like that. At that time I did know that I was not the first person to desecrate Naya, never the slightest bit I intended to impregnate her but she trapped me. it's hard to believe she's pregnant with my child."

"And now I really regret everything." Radit lowered his head, he also shed his tears making Laras a little pity.

"Give me a chance to fix everything.I'm really sorry" Radit said in tears.

"Why are you doing that with Naya, you should take responsibility for that time!" Laras is still furious even though he is also pity.

"I don't have a future yet and I don't dare go any further before I'm as successful as I am now. If all that had happened now maybe I would have been responsible."

"And all too late, even Mbak Naya is gone!"

"Yes I know it. I've tried to meet Dion but there seems to be no way of peace with Dion."

"Of course, Mas Dion hates a jerk like you."

Radit only lowered his head while occasionally wiping away his tears. In his heart Radit wanted to laugh at her so crybaby self.

"If you used to think that Naya wasn't pregnant with you, why now are you sure that Zahra is your daughter?" asked Laras after the two had been silent for quite a while.

Radit remained silent, not answering,

"Where do you know if Zahra is your daughter?" ask Laras once more.

"I'm sorry for my stupidity" Radit said as if hesitant to say everything.

"I hired people to investigate everything" Radit explained.

"That's all I do because I want to know the truth and I don't want to keep all this for too long."

"I've been wanting to do all this for a long time and finally now I'm doing it."

"I know it's too late but I just want to be given the chance to correct my mistake."

Now it's Laras' turn to be quiet for quite a while,

"Everything takes time and it's not that easy" said Laras lirih.

"I get it, and I'll wait till now."

"If there's nothing to talk about it, you're leaving now." Laras expels Radit because he is also in shock and needs time to think things through before making a decision.

"Can't I meet Zahra for a minute?"
