A Will From Mama
C-16
Surabaya
One year was Gilang in Egypt after he finished college. He did not know what had happened in Indonesia. He hasn't come home since his first departure. Just exchanging news via phone or something.
I don't know what happened to Mom. Some days he got sick. He also did not tell Gilang how he was.

Mama's been in the care this week. His condition has also started to improve. I hope Gilang's brother comes home soon. And my mother healed quickly.
"Pa sister Gilang when to go home" I asked
"I don't know either"
"Will he obey no more"
"No dear, your brother is there also with my mother's permission. Two will return when the business is done. Don't think that's weird"
"But pa, since the return of papa and mama from the graduation of Kak Gilang one year ago. My mother often got sick. Almost every month must be a mother in the care of. Is papa not aware of that"
"It's already the deck's destiny"
"Whatever papa. I'm saying goodbye, there's a group assignment today."
"Be careful on the road, and go home quickly"
"Well pa, assalamualaikum...."
"Marine...."
I went to my friend's house. Where we will do our group work.
I'll finish my job soon because I want to go home. I'm worried about my mom.
Crings....... Crings...... Crings......
Who called me.
Oh... turns out brother Gilang, what's wrong tumben call first.
I'll answer the phone immediately.
"Assalamualaikum.." I said.
"wangalaikum........"
"What's up, sister, really call me first"
"How the house is. My mom is fine"
"..........."
"Dec.... Why are you quiet. Answer the brother "
"What a fine brother"
"Yes, good brother"
"Why brother is still there until now. Did mom tell you to"
"No. I asked my mom and dad for permission."
"really. Must be brother forcing"
"Yes. Mama used to be against sister. But me and my dad managed to convince my mom. My mom finally agreed to it"
"Didn't you get shit after that"
"No"
"It's my guess"
"What do you mean"
"Since papa and mama's return after your graduation. Mama is often sick, every month must be hospitalized. Mama's disease is also different every month. "
"Why doesn't anyone tell me"
"Papa forbade us. If your business is over, go home soon. I don't want to see my mom like this"
"All right, until my greetings to them. And may my mother recover. I promise that Abah doesn't need me anymore. I'll be home soon."
"Yes, my brother, I want to go to the hospital. Oh yeah, don't tell anyone that you know about my mom"
"Yes. Assalamualaikum"
"Marine...."
I'm sorry ma, pa. I don't want a mom like this. You may not realize why your mom is like this. But I who from childhood grew up with my sister already know because mama like this.
Why did mom confess this.
Why do you allow Sis Gilang if you do not agree with his decision
Why don't you think your decision is wrong
Mama can't remember
As a child,
If once Gilang sis deliberately did not obey mama
He's gonna fuck
And if he asks for something and mama opposes him, sis Gilang will continue to persuade until finally mama agrees
However
What the hell happened
Mama's sick
And it happened again
Why mama according to my sister's request
And chose to hurt my own mother
Hope all this ends soon
