"Daddy!!!" screamed the beautiful girl down Suci Indah Ayu. On the other side, Firman is still hypnotized by the child's beautiful face, Zaskia Azzahra Khumairah. Zaskia ran very fast to reach her father, the figure she missed so much.
A figure that all his life he could only look at in his photos. Firman gasped, how come this little girl's daddy's call could be pinned to him? Was there anything he missed while spying on Ayu, but whatever it was, Firman didn't feel giddy anymore.
The smile that was on his lips grew wider when he heard the happy scream of his little angel. Firman equals his height with Zaskia, looking inch by inch at the beautiful girl's face. It is true what Akbar said a few days ago that he doesn't need a DNA test to prove it is his.
Everything in him fell to Zaskia Azzahra Khumairah. "Call again!" said Firman while covering Zaskia's plump cheeks.
"Daddy!" Zaskia repeated the order her father gave her. The tears that had been holding in the corners of Firman's eyes had finally fallen. Firman brought his only daughter into his arms, hugging her so tightly.
Ayu, who just came out of the toilet, gasped in disbelief, Zaskia was in her daddy's warm embrace, the warmth she had only felt when she was 5 years old.
"You're not being hugged, aren't you?" Ayu joked while crossing her arms in front of her chest. Ayu presents a sweet smile to complement her soul.
Firman got up and took Zazkia's hand, approached Ayu and then planted a kiss on Ayu's hair grave.
"Thank you for coming that night, thank you for everything you gave--"
"And thank you for leaving Zaskia in my womb." Ayu interrupted. Happy are you Zaskia Azzahra Khumairah, even though it's late but you can still feel the love of your biological parents as a whole.
"Dad, let's go for a walk!" Ayu's eyes widened when she heard Zaskia call the word 'Dad'.
Ayu's confused expression could clearly read Ayu' facial expressions.
"Ki, who is--"
"Princess, where are you going?" interrupted Firman. Because he knows Ayu will definitely interrogate Zaskia more deeply.
Zaskia didn't answer right away, it took a long time for this five year old girl to make her choice.
"Mom, where are we going, okay?" She asked innocently. But what was asked was thinking about something else, not paying the slightest attention to what the princess said and Firman knew what Ayu was thinking.
For four years as a reliable stalker for Ayu and Zaskia, Firman certainly knows the place that is their favorite.
"How about we go to the mall, you can buy whatever you want?" Hearing Firman's suggestion made Zaskia flash a happy light in her eyes.
"Want, Dad!" said Zaskia, full of happiness.
The 24-year-old man then took Zaskia in his arms and held Ayu';s hand in one hand. As a result, the beautiful woman jumped in surprise.
"Enjoy the child first, let's go!" Like there were thousands of fireworks that erupted at the same time Ayu's heart heard the words of Firman just now.
He was lost in his own euphoria. Now there are only three of them, may happiness always follow in their footsteps. Their togetherness did not escape the happy eyes of a Thareq Akbar Satria, it was undeniable that he was the happiest figure when he saw the togetherness of his two friends. The feeling of guilt that had lodged in him slowly disappeared.
Not for a second Zaskia wanted to be separated from her father, Ayu even chose to give up trying to persuade her little daughter. Why should his stubbornness go down on Zaskia anyway?
"Ki, pity Uncle Firman, dear!" Once again Ayu tries to advise the princess to stop clinging to Firman's neck.
"He is my daddy, not Uncle Firman!" Protested the boy who was no less beautiful than her mother.
"Say--" Firman again interrupted Ayu and Zaskia to be quiet even though it was not an easy thing for them to ignore.
"You taught Zaskia to call you daddy?" Ayu asked with sharp eyes at the man who was driving the iron carriage.
"I was surprised when she called me dad." There was no gush of lies from Firman's face, so Ayu had to rack her brain to find out who had taught Zaskia to call Firman by calling daddy.
"Abi taught you?" asked Ayu again to her little angel. Hearing Ayu's question made Firman jump in surprise. Who is Abi that the mother and child are referring to?
"Not Abi, mom." Why does the matter of just calling this 24-year-old woman rack her brain?
"Abi who, Yu?" The question also escaped from Firman's sexy lips.
"Abi, Dad!" Who was asked who also answered who, about Zaskia's personality did get more from her mommy.
"Yu, who?" asked Firman once.
"Akbar." Ayu answered briefly.
Firman's reaction was in Ayu's mind, his laughter was so cheerful that anyone who heard it wanted to close their ears tightly.
"He behaved like a spirit, but why did he ask to be called Abi." Firman grumbled.
There were clear tears dripping from the corners of his eyes when he heard Ayu's words.
"Dad, do you know Abi?" Zaskia asked innocently.
"Your daddy, mommy, and Abi are friends, they have been friends for a very long time, dear," said Firman. It seemed that he had managed to control himself.
No more cheerful laughter. Half an hour through the streets of the capital, they finally arrived at their destination. Zaskia still wants to cling to her father.
"Ki, changing with Mommy, okay?" Firman shook his head and kept Zaskia in his arms.
"Man, just put it down, Zaskia is heavy." Not a single word of Ayu was heard by the young lawyer.
"What I feel is that this is nothing compared to your struggle for Zaskia." Tears welled up in Firman's eyes again, in a blink of an eye they will fall too.
"I'm bad to you, and Zaskia too." And her tears fell in the end.
"Hust... The only thing we can't change is the past, the important thing is that you're here with me and Zaskia, it's more than enough to make up for your mistakes." Ayu put on a reassuring smile that could hypnotize a Firman Afif.
Zaskia's tiny hand reached out to wipe the traces of wetness on her daddy's cheek.
"Mommy is dead, isn't it, Dad? I'm tired of making my daddy angry," asked Zaskia.
"Mommy is not evil, Zaskia can't say that. You have risked your life to give birth to Zaskia, you can't do that, Mommy, because under the soles of your feet there is a paradise for Zaskia and mommy--"
"Dad," Ayu interrupted.
"ZASKIA!!!" There was a man who called out the name of the little girl. Not only the owner of the name who turned around, Ayu and Firman were shocked by the man's loud cry.
