Siti just fell silent. Indeed, because of tired and sleepy, Siti was also confused about what happened.
Since then the girl's eyes look as if guiding an explanation to the man who claimed to be her father.
How could? Wh why? Thousands of questions were lodged in Siti's mind.
But his lips remained tight. Step over with his head down next to Andrew.
Tiger walked not far behind Siti. He continued to stare at Siti's back with a blank look.
Tiger's gaze was turned toward Brian who was walking side by side with Andrew. Tiger grinned. He realizes that Brian is also after Siti and is looking for face in front of the man who says he is Siti's real father.
"Woi, Bro," Farhan nudged Tiger's arm. Making Tiger slightly stunned in surprise. "You've done the same with Siti. Ngaku hayo? We're having a hard time finding you. You're both good with Siti."
Once again Tiger just grinned. Not answering with a word. Not until one second, Tiger's other arm has been seized by Rihana.
The woman was twitching spoiled in Tiger's arm. Wishing the man she loved would turn her head and let out a dreadful seduction.
However, Rihana's sweetest smile should be dimmed instantly as Tiger removed his arm from Rihana's grip. Then Tiger accelerated his pace ahead of Farhan and Rihana.

"So, Mr. Andrew was the boss of the father" Mr. RT told Siti.
They are gathering at home. In the living room.
Siti turned to the man Mr. Andrew called her. He stared with eyes that were hard to decipher. Then he turned to look at Mr. RT who he only realized if all this time he was just his adoptive father.
"You're not angry, are you? Papa used to leave you there is also a good reason. Not because Papa does not love you," Andrew hurriedly explained as he saw the look on Siti's face that looked down lethargic.
Andrew was afraid his daughter thought he was an outcast.
"In that case, why did I arrive?" Siti asked still with a lowered face.
Both hands clenched Siti squeezed the tip of the new shirt and still smelled of soap.
Andrew took a long breath. Ready to start the story. A dark story of his past that does not want to be repeated in the future.
"So, Papa used to be accused of embezzling company money and Papa was jailed for ten years."
Siti was aghast and looked up at Andrew. The man hurriedly grabbed Siti's hand, asking that the girl be calm and hear the explanation from her completely.
"But this Mr. Andrew is slandered. He was framed by his colleague, Siti," Mr. RT also voiced.
"Yes, and you were very small then. You're still a baby. Your mother no longer exists. Papa is confused who to leave you to. Until finally, Papa decided to leave you to Mr. Rudi."
Silent. A few minutes passed, everyone was silent. Especially Siti who seemed to be trying to accept if she was not the daughter of an RT leader. But the daughter of someone who had been in prison.
"Ten years. Papa was imprisoned for ten years. Then why is it that Papa is visiting me now?" Siti asked still looking down. He had not dared to look at Andrew with watery eyes.
Siti did not see Andrew's lips which revealed a faint smile. In the depths of his heart, Andrew was happy because Siti quickly wanted to call him by Papa's call.
"Get out of prison, Papa had nothing. Papa is embarrassed to have to meet Papa's little daughter with poor Papa condition and holds the status of an ex-convict," Andrew swallowed his saliva. Andrew's tongue feels muddy when he has to tell the story of his time out of prison.
He chose to hold back his longing to meet his daughter and decided to open a new business. Starting a business is not easy for him to live.
Andrew really started his life from scratch. Until now she felt it was appropriate to meet her daughter and planned to bring Siti to a more decent life.
"Wait!" Sela Siti who was stunned remembered something.
Andrew who told her life story suddenly stopped. Andrew frowned at Siti who pulled out a necklace.
"Is this necklace from Papa?"
"The necklace is from your mother. Your name is Kitty. The name of the gift from your late mother," said Andrew staring at the necklace he had given to Rudi when he handed Siti.
"But Kitty's name sounds strange on the tongue of the villagers. So as time went on, many people used to call you Siti," Mr. RT re-opened his voice to explain.
"So, it's from mom." Siti muttered rubbing the necklace that was in her hand. He smiled and the water in his eyes grew even more.
"Would you like to come with Papa to live in the city?" Andrew asked suddenly. "Tomorrow morning we shall depart immediately."
