The Imperfect Story
Chapter 49

Wati sat quietly pensively in her room, lying if she did not think about the final word of the Judge.

"Look, Ms. Wati. It is true that your way is simple and useful. But if Devita and Ismail are looking for Zayn, then report the case to the police, aren't you the suspect in Zayn's disappearance?" those words kept ringing in his mind.

"Gosh, how's this? What if Devita finds out, I kicked her son out of here? Mampus lah I, I can also come on the floor by him." he complained while starting to move around his room.

"Can't! I have to find a way to keep me from getting involved in this matter." she said in her heart. Wati began to think, looking for solutions and the right words to trick Devita.

"Assalamualaikum," came the voice of Vita who had just entered the house. She just got back from the cafe after meeting Rey.

Vita climbed the stairs to Zayn's room. The woman opened the door and did not find Zayn there.

Vita closed the door and hurried off to the kitchen, hoping that her son would be there.

"Zay!" vita called out her son's name. It was not Zayn who heard but his mother who came out of the room and approached Vita.

Along with the arrival of Bella from the outside, Wati began to act put on an anxious face along with the tears of the female crocodile.

"What's up, Mom?" ask Vita and Bella at the same time.

"Zayn-" he said without continuing his sentence, adding to his sad expression.

"What happened to Zayn?" ask her two children back at the same time. Those who were not so anxious now began to worry about what was going on.

"So I just wanted to feed him, but when I got into his room, Zayn wasn't there" she explained with tears.

"Astaghfirullahal'adzim, is Zayn missing?" ask the two again in unison by putting on a shocked face.

Vita's eyes are now breaking, her heart feels tight. Soon he ran out, wanting to check on Lia's mother's house, hoping Zayn was there to play.

"Assynnya!" yelled Vita while hitting the doorbell of Mother Lia's house non-stop.

"Waalaikumsalam, uh Ibu Vita what's up, huh?" the owner of the house.

"Did Zayn play here, Miss Lia?" asked Vita still with the same expression. His heart was beating much faster than usual, sweat was pouring from his head touching his forehead.

"Zay? Zayn hasn't played here in a long time, Miss Vita. What's wrong?" ask Lia's mother again.

"Zayn is gone, Miss Lia" said Vita with teary eyes.

"Then I want to find Zayn first. If if Zayn comes back or stops by Lia's mother's house, please let me know, yes. Excuse me, Assalamualaikum." said Vita and rushed back home.

Meanwhile at her home, Bella begins to interrogate her own biological mother.

"Mother feed Zayn? Did I not hear wrong, Mom? Don't you like Zayn?" bella asked with an intimidating look.

"Mom just pity her, can't you do good?" he said with annoyance. The face that had been sad, disappeared instantly as Vita left.

"alright. But where's the food you want to give Zayn? I checked the kitchen, there was no food there!" challenge Wati, eager to dismantle his mother's crime.

"Have Mother eaten herself." elak Wati, while hiding her expression that seemed afraid of being discovered.

"I've guessed, Mother was never sincere to do good. Where there is a good person who sees his own grandson lost even lusted to eat high and delicious sitting sweet in the room." Bella folded her hands on her chest while thinking.

"I was thinking, did Mom throw him out of this house?" bella asked with a heart-wrenching look.

"Are you crazy? How could I possibly be that old lady!" refute Wati, turning her face to look to and fro to dispel her anxious expression.

"Mother confess, I didn't throw Zayn out?" bella asked once again along with Vita who had just come and heard the question.

"Is that right, Mom?" Vita asked. Wati also felt cornered, now her mind feels deadlocked. At the beat of his own head hoping for inspiration to enter his brain.

"It's your fault, Bella! Every time you leave the house, you don't close let alone lock the door!" accuse Wati of handing over blame to Bella.

"Aiss, Kiss, Mom. Did you forget, all this time Mom likes to go out of the house, while I rarely go out. And that's when I came out, wasn't Mom home, so why did I close the door." elak Bella couldn't accept the charges against her.

"That's enough! Mending now we're looking for Zayn. No one's coming home before Zayn meets!" edith Vita, while Wati put on a face of carelessness. Reluctant but afraid of himself getting suspicious.

"I'm sure, now it must be Zaskia who took him away." suddenly the name just flashed in Wati's head.

"Geez, Kia!" Vita was immediately out of the house to drive her car away while calling Kia but no one picked her up. This further makes Vita sure that Kia is the one who took Zayn away.

Repeatedly the call rang, Kia was reluctant but curious as to what the woman was calling continuously. Finally Kia gave up and answered the call.

"Hallo." said Kia lazily.

"Kia, give me my son back right now!" order Vita directly.

Kia frowned, not understanding the meaning of Vita. Wasn't he the one who forbade to meet Zayn, now why tell him to return the child?

"What do you mean, Vita?" kia asked in annoyance.

"Aren't you the one who brought Zayn? You took it from me!" snapped Vita with a hoarse voice.

"Are you crazy? You're the one who prevented me from meeting Zayn, now you're accusing me of taking it from you?" snapped Kia also did not accept.

"Where else would it be if it wasn't with you?" ask Vita with a trembling voice.

"I'm not with him, Vita!" gertak Kia who exhausted her patience.

"So where did Zayn go?" vita's tears broke, her tears shed instantly. Sobs were heard by Kia.

"Zayn's missing?" kia's eyes were puffed up and her mouth opened. Shock, to drop the phone just like that.

Kia recited Istighfar as her tears fell down her cheeks. To meet when Zayn with his parents alone is difficult, now he has to find where if Zayn is declared missing?

"Astaghfirullahal'adzim, Zayn." immediately retrieved his phone and put it back in his ear.

"What's the chronology of Zayn's disappearance?" kia asked as she wiped her tears.

"I don't know, Kia. Last time I came home, Zayn was no more." said Vita Lirih.

"Stupid!" Kia swearing rough.
