"Dad. God can explain the previous—"
"Daddy saw it all for himself. No need to explain." Max was still sharpening his eyes on his son who was currently standing in front of him.
Mala and Nayra are waiting outside Maxime's office. Max did not allow Nayra and Mala to go inside.
"But Dad, God just hugged Mala."
Of course the gods do not feel it is an act of violation. Just a hug, what's wrong?
"Oh yeah? Should it be in public? You hugged like that in front of a lot of people. Daddy used to say, Mala was a kid. He hasn't graduated High School, God."
This time the Lord could not answer. But, he was already quite mature, even if it was near Mala, the Gods always felt much more childish. Don't know, I don't know why. Or because Mala is too young? Or because the God was so fond of that little girl.
"Sorry Dad, God is wrong." Unable to argue, she knew she shouldn't have hugged Mala in public either. Although, the situation alone is not siding earlier, if his Daddy did not catch both, actually it is not a problem.
"This is what you read."
Maxime gave a long white envelope to God. At that time God did not understand what the envelope was.
"What's this, Dad?"
The gods have not opened it.
"Open up and read." Max says it while touching next to his eyebrows. "I'm sorry I just told you, God. But, that was Mala's mother and father's plan."
Apparently it was a letter moving Mala. Mala's parents decide to take Mala with them to Korea. The gods are shocked, amazingly shocked.
"It's impossible Dad. I never told you."
"Mala doesn't know, she'll be told by her mother and father tomorrow."
"Why did Daddy know?"
"Before Mala's father and mother went out of town. They've already informed Daddy of this plan. But, at first they were hesitant, because Mala is very close to you. While Daddy feels this is the best for Mala. It's best that Mala be kept away from you, God."
The god grew shocked, it turned out that this was on the basis of his daddy's wishes as well?
"So Daddy meant, is this Daddy's idea?"
Max shook his head. "Daddy is just giving advice, and this is all for your good. If you are a match, you can meet Mala after her age is enough, her future is still long. Of course you don't want to block Mala, do you?"
I don't know what God has to say to his daddy. Separated from Mala? Just imagine it never. God did not dare to imagine that, then now the two really had to part? How so?
"God. Daddy doesn't forbid you to date. Go ahead, but not now. If you love Mala, you have to be patient and wait until Mala grows up." Maxime walked over to his son's side, then hugged him. "Daddy doesn't forbid you from approaching Mala. But before it's too late. Daddy knows you can't help yourself if you stay near Mala. Daddy understands, because Daddy's a man."
Even though God is older than Mala. But, Maxime knew exactly, his son had only the first serious feelings for the opposite sex, new to Nirmala. The gods love Mala so much, and Maxime understands that very well.
"If you are patient, then Mala can achieve her love and ideals together. Daddy's sure."
The gods really can't say anything. What he was thinking about now was, how he went through the days without Mala by his side, and the girl would definitely be hysterical as well grieving to know this reality.
Outside Mala just kept on being restless. He was afraid that Maxime would scold his God brother. Nayra stroked Mala's hair while continuing to calm the girl down. "God is not going to do anything. His dad just wants to talk to me normally."
Mala looked into Nayra's eyes with trembling lips. "But Max looked really angry, Auntie."
Nayra. "Om Max, never get angry to overdo it. After all, God is a boy so it has to be strong, right?"
Mala did not answer, she still felt anxious.
The door was opened, Mala immediately stood up as well as Nayra.
"Sister God. Brother is okay, right?" ask Mala who has been worried since.
Nayra smiled, she knew that the Gods were currently sad. "Honey, you're talking to Mala. Mommy wants to go in to see Daddy."
Gods nodded. "Yes, Mum."
Mala immediately pulled the end of the clothes of God, while blinking lips. "Sister isn't in anything like Om Maxime right?"
"Dear, we'll buy ice cream yuk, will you?"
"But, will Maxime get angry?"
"No, I'm allowed to."
Yes, Max allows God to take Mala for a walk, after all God and Mala will be separated for a while.
"Really?" mala asked in disbelief.
"Yes, you want ice cream, right?"
Mala shakes. "Wants meatballs, what? Mala laper, haven't eaten."
"Oh my God, I forgot you haven't eaten. Okay, we're eating meatballs."
The god took Mala's hand, he invited Mala to eat their meatballs. Mala was very happy, because she thought Max would forbid the two of them to walk alone again, it turned out that it was just excessive anxiety, her inner self.
Arriving at the meatballs of Mala and Dewa, they immediately ordered two servings of meatballs. Mala likes egg meatballs, while Dewa likes urate meatballs.
The drinks are always the same, their two favorite iced teas.
"This is the meatball." The meatball seller brought Mala and Dewa's order.
"Nuhun, mangg." The god smiled kindly.
"His-husband." The seller is also much more friendly.
Mala was impatient and immediately ate the meatballs that were still hot. "Uhhh, hot." His mouth was smoky and it made his tongue burn. "It's really hot, brother." Not so biting the small meatballs that accompany the egg meatballs in the bowl.
"It's hot baby, you slow down." The god wiped Mala's mouth and helped blow the meatballs she had pricked with a fork. "Same, aaa.."
Mala opened her mouth, and the meatball landed safely on her tongue without overheating. "Favor Brother."
Gods nodded. This time like never before, he felt sad to see his Mala who was eating voraciously in front of him.
"Brother God, don't you eat?" ask Mala.
"Hm, I'm Brother eating." The god ate his meatballs, but this time it didn't feel like normal, he felt they were bland.
"Nobody sad that anyway? Oh yeah, Mala forgot, what was Om Max talking about? Is Om angry with Brother?"
"No, Daddy's not mad. Mala calm down, Brother Dewa very dear to Mala. Whatever happens even though we end up being apart for a while. Brother of the Gods will wait for Mala."
Of course the girl was confused, why would a God say that? They will not be separated, Mala thought.
"Yes, that's a wish, dear." The god rubbed the cheeks of Nirmala, a girl who was like a sister, a friend, even a lover to him.
Mala just smiled. "So, no more mellow. Tumben dreams of everything."
The girl could still smile sweetly, and the Gods hoped that the smile would not fade later. She liked that sweet smile so much, she did not want Mala to be sad.
"Stay that smile, Mala. I don't want to see you sad."
Mala's getting weird. "So, don't be weird, ah. I think it will separate us. I'm afraid, honestly Brother why?"
God wanted to say that, but Maxime forbade it. "There's nothing dear. Mala should know, believe, be sure. That Brother Dewa will always love Mala."
Mala's smile coiled wide on her lips. "Mala also loves Kaka, really even."
Both of them again ate the meatballs in their bowls until it ran out. Then after that God drove Mala home.

...The next day at Mala's house....
"Morning, sweetheart." Mala's father named Lesmana Mahendra greeted Mala who was still closed on his bed. Hearing her father's voice, Mala immediately rushed up.
"Dad, when are you?" ask Mala enthusiastically. "Morning, Dad. Mala was kangen" said the girl who immediately hugged her father.
"Father and mother are coming. Get up and take a shower, keep eating breakfast. Mommy and Dad want to talk to Mala."
"Speaking?" ask Mala wonder. Not usually mother and father invite him to talk seriously.
"Tumben I want to talk to Mala. It means that it is serious," said Mala.
"Father's son is big. Must be talked to seriously too. Unless Mala's a kid, right?"
Mala agreed with her father's words this time. "Father really, Mala is already big," he nodded.
Lesmana smile. "Dad wait under yah," he kissed on Mala's forehead.
"Okay, Dad."
Mala picked up her phone, the first thing she did was send a message to her God Sister.
Mala Darling: I asked Mala to talk seriously, he said because Mala was big, Mala was very nice, Brother. Love You Kak Dewa's. Wake up, it's morning.
The message was sent to the gods. Then Mala immediately rushed to take a shower.
God cannot sleep all night, as a result early in the morning he overslept. To the extent that there is no sound of his phone that continues to ring. Incoming calls and also incoming chat so much, because he forgot to turn off his internet data since night.
After taking a shower, Mala went straight down to the dining table. There his father and his mother were waiting for him.
"Dear Mala, mother's son. Here baby, hug mothera. I'm very upset" said Delia, Nirmala's mother.
"Mala also misses Mother," Mala replied while tightening her arms to her mother.
"Sit down baby, we'll have breakfast first."
Mala nodded and sat down. He immediately ate the breakfast that his mother had prepared.
"Dear Mala, how many months are you graduating?" ask mother Mala.
"Hm, hold on to the Bun exam. Maybe two more months of graduation." Mala answered him while chewing the sandwich in her mouth.
"Let's go, sweetie." Delia gave a glass of milk to her daughter.
"Thank Mother. Yes, in a minute. The last exam. After that maybe Mala will take care of the problem of which university Mala wants to choose" said Mala.
"Where are you going to college?" ask Dad.
"At the place where Kak Dewa is in college" Mala replied without thinking.
Father and Mother Mala already thought that would be the answer of her daughter.
"It's a real shame, isn't it the same with Brother Dewa?" ask Delia. "Can't you split up a little bit with Lord?" he added.
Mala stopped her eating. "Kok, Mommy told me to separate from the Lord?"
"It's not that, honey."
"Continue?" Mala suddenly worried. "What is this really? Why are your mom and dad's faces so tense?"
Lesmana rubbed her face. He was confused to tell his daughter. "Dear Mala, Daddy and Mommy will move to Korea, after you graduate high school. You're coming, huh?"
Mala was so shocked that she accidentally dropped the bread in her hand. "What?"
"Mala, you're moving to Korea, right?" reset Delia.
Impossible, Mala does not want to lose and is far from the brother of God.
"No way!" mala resolute. The girl reflexively kicked her desk, even though she had never been angry in front of her parents.
"Not wanting Dad! Mother!"
Delia approached her daughter, trying to calm down. "Mala listen to mother first."
Mala still shook her head violently and she cried. "No way, Mother. I am not far from God. Mala wants to study in Bandung with Kak Dewa."
Lesmana approached her daughter. "Mala, don't gini. God agreed to it."
Instantly Mala's body grew limp. "No way Dad, where maybe Lord Mala's brother went" Mala said.
"Darling, Maxime told God yesterday and God agreed. Said the God of origin that was best for you." Delia again hugged her daughter who was now silently sculpting, but her eyes continued to spit out a clear grain.
"No, this is impossible. Brother God can't possibly agree Mala left, Mother!"
Mala was speechless. He just kept crying. Mala let go of her mother's embrace and ran into her room. He closed the door hard and locked it.
"Not want to!" The crying broke out there. Mala dropped her body behind the door. He feels very sad now. "No way, why does the Lord agree." Mala can only cry while holding her chest that feels tight not playing.
God is the only person who exists when he feels loneliness. Both of his parents often leave him with a housekeeper. As soon as the Gods came, Mala felt she no longer felt lonely because the Gods had always comforted her. So now he can what? Do not part with Korea which is very far away. Mala split the house often kangen with the Gods. "Mala would rather die than have to separate from Lord! But Mala was disappointed, why did you agree Mala left?"
