At night Satria just arrived home. A 10-year-old boy immediately ran over to Satria who had just entered his house.
His name is Arslan, he is a very cheerful and lively boy. His face was very handsome, making anyone who saw him anxious.
"Mas Satriaa." called out to him as he ran about to jump into Satria's arms.
Satria also spread his hands wide to welcome Arslan's small body. Satria immediately caught him in his arms if carrying him.
"Assalamu'alaikum." Satria walked into the house while saying her greetings.
"Greetings waalaikum, son. You're home yet?" tanya mama Dewi approached Satria.
Satria immediately kissed the back of the mother's hand which gently rubbed Satria's head.
His eldest son rarely went home. Satria chose to live alone in the apartment.
"You rarely come home, how are you doing, son? healthy?" mama Satria asked so worriedly that her son was thinner than the last time they met.
"I'm good at ma." replied Satria with a face that looked so shabby.
"Ars, I'm going to take a shower. Mas tired, want to rest for a while yes later we play again." explained Satria to Arslan who immediately nodded in agreement.
"Good boy." praised Satria while gently rubbing Arslan's hair, kissing her round cheeks and letting her down from her lap.
Mama who saw Satria not so excited and looks sad to be sad considering the fate of her eldest son.
At his age, he should be able to build a household. But let alone getting married, even after the incident 8 years ago Satria had never been in contact with another girl.
Satria is like closing the door of her heart to another girl. Mama Satria has already met Arin, and that was the last time Mama Satria saw her son in a relationship with a girl.
But suddenly their relationship ended and Satria chose to move to Jogja and continue to study there one year later.
Until finally papa and his mother decided to move to Jakarta, Satria almost never returned to their old house in Bogor.
Which until now has only been empty. Mama Satria did not want to sell the house because it was a historic house for their family.
Shortly after Satria entered his room, came a beautiful girl who was none other than Satria's sister named Citra.
"Mas Satria has come home yet?" tanya Citra approached mama Satria who was preparing a table for dinner.
"Your mom just got home, she looks so tired. Let him rest first yes, do not disturb." message his mother with a face that looks so sad.
Citra also nodded in approval of the orders of the mother, after which he approached Arslan who was playing with his toy robots.
"Ars, play the same as Citra yuk above." take Citra and of course Arslan very happy and agree.
After cleaning himself and changing clothes Satria lay herself in bed, while looking at a frame containing a photo where she was hugging the arinda from behind.
In the photo they look so happy with Arinda who hugs a bouquet of red roses are quite large.
The photo was taken when both of them
celebrating Arinda's 17th birthday .
That day Arin and Satria went to a park in front of which lay a lake that was so beautiful and cool in the eyes.
Flashbacks, flashbacks,
"Honey, happy birthday" said Satria while showing a beautiful tart decorated with the number 17 on it.
"Ahh, thank you dear." Arinda was so happy to get a sweet surprise from Satria.
"Make a wish sweetheart" said satria.
After that, Arinda blew out the candle and they enjoyed the moment together. Not to forget Arinda also fed Satria the tart cake.
They decided to celebrate Arinda's birthday with a picnic to the venue.
After that Satria gave a bouquet of red roses are quite large and they also perpetuate the moment by taking pictures by asking for help other visitors.
It was the happiest day for them. A full day Satria continues to accompany Arinda wherever Arinda wants to go.
They had a nice date after the celebration. They were so in love and in a drunken romance.
Without knowing what will come tomorrow that might destroy their happiness that day.
The sound of knocks and calls from her mother disperse Satria's daydream about her beautiful past with Arinda.
Tok, tok, tok .
"Sat, eat first, son. Everyone is waiting at the dinner table." said the mother who was immediately sahuti by Satria.
"Yes, ma. I'll be down in a moment" he replied, putting the picture frame he's been looking at in a black box.
Inside the box contained many of her memories with Arinda that she had given when they were still dating.
After tidying up his belongings, Satria rushed down to meet his family who had been waiting for him since at the dinner table.
"I'm sorry everyone is waiting" said Satria approached her papa first kissing the back of her hand.
"Healthy, son?" ask Papa Satria gently.
"Alhamdulillah pa." replied Satria taking an empty seat next to Citra to sit down.
The image also kissed the back of the brother's hand which was very difficult to meet. Which Satria responded by gently stroking the face of her only sister.
"Are you busy, Sat?" ask papa.
"Yes pa, I have a new project" Satria explained.
"But papa asked Sat for help, you try to go home on weekends. Poor Arslan, son." explained papa Satria.
"Yes pa, next time I try to often go home." replied Satria .
"Already dong pa, our children should not be in ajakin chat continue. Pity Satria to eat first." said mama Satria cut when papa was about to talk back.
"Yes, ma papa ngerti." pasrah papa Satria did not want to argue with his wife.
They continued their dinner very warmly. It's been a long time since he took the time and time to be with such a family.
After enjoying a delicious dinner everyone decided to return to their rooms to rest.
Except for Mama Satria who was tidying the dining table and washing dishes. The image did not help his mother because she had to bring Arslan to sleep.
When Mama Satria finished washing the dishes, she saw Satria sitting in the living room with the lights out. He seemed to be awake and enjoying the darkness.
Mama immediately approached Satria and sat down next to him. Satria turned around not surprised to see her mother sitting next to her.
"Why do you want to sit here alone? Go back to your room and rest." mama's advice .
Satria also changed the position of his body by lying on his head in the lap of the mother.
"Forgot the past, son, it's been 8 years." said the mother gently.
Satria cried sobbing in the lap of her mother regretted many things in the past. Not because he did not want to forget Arinda, just as hard as he tried still he could not.
