Chapter 5 ~ Painful Messages

_To Father_

"Dad, why did you leave so? Today is a very happy day for me and Shakila. Hope dad has succeeded Yola realized. Yola was accepted to Hope Nation High School without a test, but dad just left? Why am I so hard to learn early in the afternoon until evening if in the end when father's hope is realized it goes so far, .and seems to be gone a long time ago. Shakila was also the class champion today, but Dad hasn't hugged us to just say Congratulations. I went to see Aunt Heni, didn't I? I'd rather meet Aunt Heni than think of me and Shakila. You coming home again?"

_From: Dad_

"Yola is still a learning spirit. Take care of Shakila's sister. I can't stay at home with my mom, Yola, and Shakila. This is the path that I have to walk. I can't stay home with you anymore."

It hurt Yola to read a message from my father. How can I go to school?

Can I eat and snack?

How can the three of us live without Dad?

Whose business is running?

What do I have to answer if someone asks where Dad is?

Do you not love me and Shakila anymore?

Various questions of Yola's inner self. Instantly his mind was empty because he was very afraid when his father left him.

Yola thought he would send a message to Aunt Heni.

_To: Aunt Heni_

Aunt, please don't take my father. Tell dad to come home with mom, me, and sister again. If my father Aunty takes me, who will take care of me? Please Auntie, if Dad has arrived there , please ask dad to come home with us back 😭"

*Ting*

_From: Aunt Heni_

"It wasn't Aunt who took your father, it's been her way that your father will be staying with Aunt from now on. May you be a strong boy in the future. "

_To: Aunt Heni_

"How can aunty and father be like that? It imposes the will. Can't just take my dad. Does Auntie have no heart? Does Auntie not pity us? Dad just left us. All this time, Auntie's sick dad always send medicine, Auntie needs what my mother always helps. Mother I was very good with Aunt, but Aunt wickedly took the father of us all. Have you ever wondered how broken our hearts would have been if Dad had left us forever? I hope Aunt still has the heart to ask Dad to come home with us".

_From: Aunt Heni_

"It's up to you to tell me what, obviously this is the way your father will live with Auntie, after your Father and Mother divorced later. Aunty won't stop your father from staying here with Aunty. Thank you for all the kindness. Greetings to your Mother"

Yola was very hurt to read the message from her father and Aunt Heni. They chose such a path. Without thinking about the three hearts that have been hurt and broken since that night and for the future.

Without Yola noticing, tired of crying, Yola finally fell asleep for the night.
