Dawn broke again, the sky looked cool. Ayu's body is still weak, although not as weak as last night. The beautiful woman is now neatly dressed in a denim-colored dress combined with a matching blazer.
Her long hair was in a high ponytail showing her white neck. The sound of Ayu's steps made Galih frown, the middle-aged man was made to wonder by the appearance of his daughter who was already very neat. In contrast to his appearance, he still uses boxers and home shirts.
"Yu, where are you going, dear?" Ayu chose not to ignore her daddy's question. Currently Ayu is racing against time. Ayu continued to walk down the stairs, Kinanti was as surprised as her husband, what wind made Ayu this tidy?
"Are you leaving, Yu? It's still less than seven o'clock, dear!" said Kinanti when she saw Ayu's arrival.
The middle-aged woman was busy arranging the food above to be served as a breakfast menu. Ayu smiled sweetly on her luscious lips. Galih to follow the steps of the princess to the dining table.
"I'm just an ordinary office employee, I'm not a daddy who can only order here and there." Ayu answered while putting small pieces of bread into her mouth.
"You are the sole heir of Angkasa Group, you don't intend to replace Daddy in the company?" asked Galih, to Ayu's daddy's question he firmly refused.
Kinanti, who felt that there would be a debate between her son and her husband, immediately acted as a mediator.
"HUSH ... the dining table is for eating, not fighting," said Kinanti with her eyes widening in horror.
Like a buffalo that was poked in the nose, Ayu and Galih immediately pressed their lips together.
Because she was being chased by time, Ayu was the first to finish her breakfast activity.
"Mom, Dad, I'll go first, okay?" Ayu got up from her seat and grabbed her handbag and car keys.
"Not waiting for Firman, baby?" asked Kinanti.
"No, Mommy. I'm in a hurry because there is a meeting." Ayu grabbed the back of Galih and Kinanti's hands for her to kiss.

Five minutes after Ayu left, Firman came with a very stunning appearance. A maroon colored shirt matched the tie around his neck, black cloth pants beautifully wrapped his long legs.
"Mom ... Where's Ayu?" Firman asked in the politest tone possible to the woman who would soon become his mother-in-law.
"Ayu already left first, son!" explained Kinanti while inviting Firman to sit on one of the single sofas in the living room. Firman was not the least bit suspicious of the reason for Ayu's departure this morning, because since last night Akbar had ordered him to take Ayu to the office early in the morning.
They have a big meeting to handle together. Firman's attention was focused on the door to the room on the second floor which was slightly ajar. Yes, that room is Ayu and Zaskia's room.
"Mom ... I can see Zaskia, can't I?" Even though Zaskia is now proven to be her child, Firman still has to respect Kinanti as Zaskia's grandmother.
The reassuring smile Mama Kinanti gave to Firman was accompanied by an up and down movement of the head.
Without waiting any longer, Firman immediately climbed the stairs to get to the room with the baby pink feel. The color that will always be Suci Indah Ayu's favorite.
Zaskia Azzahra Khumairah is clear evidence of Ayu and Firman's love five years ago. Firman is truly amazed, every curve of the little girl's face is indeed her derivative. Firman put many kisses in the whirlpool of the daughter's hair, a sincere kiss from the father to his daughter after being separated for a long time.
Satisfied with seeing the little girl's face, Firman stepped out of the room of his soul complement. There were two trial agendas in different locations that he had to go through today.
The first trial took place at the Religious Courts and the second session at the District Courts. The District Court is a judicial institution within the General Courts which is domiciled in the district or city capital. As a Court of First Level, the District Court functions to examine, decide, and resolve criminal and civil cases for people seeking justice in general.
Religious Courts are state institutions that exercise judicial power. The duties of the Religious Courts are to examine, hear, decide and settle certain civil cases, by adhering to the principle of Islamic personality. Islam is subject to Islamic law. One type of case that is decided by the district court is the divorce of a non-Muslim spouse.
So, unlike Muslim couples who decide on their divorce cases in a religious court, couples of other religions, such as Christians or Hindus, are obliged to file a divorce suit with the district court.
For about a week, only Firman Afif and Karim Atthar Firdaus served at the Agasa and Partners Law Firm because the owner was out of town and there was an agenda that could not be represented by anyone.
Thirty minutes through the streets of the capital, Firman arrived at the building where he added his rupiah coffers, a place that had made his name as a firm lawyer. With firm steps he entered the building consisting of two steps.
Great his subordinates warmly. Ayu's return, coupled with the revelation of Zaskia's identity, is able to melt the iceberg in Firman.
Four years of being a person who lacked a smile, cold and full of arrogance, now all of that has disappeared somewhere along with the return of the two women.
Drrrt ... Drrrt ... Drrrt …
Firman's cell phone which was lying on his desk rang loudly, breaking Firman's attention from the pile of files that he would like to attend the trial later. The name Thareq Akbar Satria filled the screen of Firman's cell phone.
His brows furrowed, his brows knit together and his eyes squinted. Why did Akbar call him?
"Ha--"
"Where is Ayu going? I told you to pick her up early in the morning, we have a meeting, Man! This is an important meeting, Man!" interrupted Akbar.
Firman's brows became even more imprinted upon hearing Akbar's speech. Ayu is not in the office? Then why did Mama Kinanti say that Ayu had already left? Is something bad happening to Ayu?
Suddenly, Firman's whole body trembled.
"Mommy Kinanti said that Ayu had left a long time ago, she hasn't arrived yet, has she?" asked Firman in a trembling voice.
"Man, Ayu hasn't arrived until I've been waiting for her for almost an hour. That's all, you look for her so I can handle the investors." Firman hung up the phone without responding to Akbar's words. The tears in the eyelids of Firman's eyes began to well up which in a blink of an eye would fall down his cheeks.
