The Exchanging Soulmate
Extra Part Ending
Lisa looks at a picture of herself and Mela as a child. Without feeling her tears fell. He removed it immediately because he did not want questions from his two children.
"You miss Mela, huh?" marni asked while rubbing Lisa's hand.
"Yes, Buk, I miss him a lot. Luckily there's Zein now so I can finish my longing just by looking at the kid."
"Yes, he does look like Mela. In any case, Mela was Zein's mother. Naturally they look alike."
"Yes, Buk, they're similar. May Mela be calm there. She doesn't have to worry because now her son is safe with us."

Amar and Zein and Zayn returned after the magrib prayer. They also had dinner together. Due to exhaustion, Zein and Zein quickly fell asleep. They sleep in the same room, Lisa's old room.
He and Amar slept in another room. Her parents were in their old room.
All was well until at midnight, Lisa who had just finished from the bathroom was shocked to hear a small cry coming from inside the small room in the house. It was the room where Lisa put all her belongings that had been for a long time.
Quickly he went to the room to make sure that what he heard was not a ghostly cry. The closer he got, the slower his steps became as his legs began to relax. He knows this voice. He knows her very well.
Zein, this is Zein's crying voice. But why was he in that room? Lisa tried to think of whatever stuff was in there. Eventually, he realizes that there is a photo of his childhood with Mela. Did Zein realize it?
"Zeez!" Lisa immediately approached the child who was crying while hugging a photo. He grabbed Zein into his arms and cried. Regretting why he could have been that reckless to make Zein know the secret he had been hiding?
"Mother, am I really Bude Mela's son?" asked Zein who was still crying in the arms of the Mother.
"Darling, you're Mother's son." Lisa tried to deny what the child was asking. He was not ready to lose the loving gaze of the child who was actually his nephew.
"No, honey, you're Mother's son." Lisa is still trying to convince Zein that she is her real child. It's hard to lie like this.
"No, Mommy, I'm Bude Mela's son, right? After Maghrib prayers, I did not participate in new prayers if there are toys Zayn that I have not entered. But, I accidentally heard the conversation Mother and grandmother. I'm Bude Mela's son, right, Bun?"
Lisa can't say anything anymore. He was already unable to dodge because Zein had clearly heard their conversation.
"Sorry Mother, Son. Mother does not mean to make you forget your mother. But, Mother just wants to give the best for you."
"Mother, I understand. I know that Mother loves me very much. Thank you, Mother, thank you because all this time Mother has been taking good care of me and considers me like your biological child. I'm happy to have parents like Mother."
It was unexpected that Zein's answer was different from Lisa's previous expectations. She thought that Zein would be angry at her for having lied to her for so many years. However, the boy shows his bright side where he instead thanks Lisa who has given him an abundance of affection.
They hugged each other while crying. This was also witnessed by other family members. They wake up after hearing Lisa's cry.
Just like Lisa, they also did not expect that Zein would receive all this well.
The next day, they returned home. But before that, they went to the cemetery where Mela and her father were buried.
Zein sows flowers on his mother's grave. He rubbed his tears repeatedly because he wanted to be a strong child in front of his mother. He promised in his heart that he would be a good child so that his mother would be proud of him.
"Mela, relax there. Zein will always be happy with the abundance of affection we give." Lisa rubbed the Mela Headstone while smiling amidst her dripping tears. He felt very relieved because in the end the secret he had been guarding would not be a burden on his life anymore. Zein had found out who he was and accepted it with a chest of air. Hopefully Zein will be a filial son to both his mothers.
