As Strong as the Mentari, as Soft as the Moon

Episodes 116. Mirza's Side of Life (1)

"It has arrived." said brother Mirza when stopping the pace of his silver sports car. Even so, I still refuse to move on to my daydreams. Until Mirza patted me on the shoulder, then my consciousness was perfect. "Sorry.." I said ending my daydreams.

But..Hey, wait ! I gasped as I looked around that felt foreign. "Where is this...?" I asked as I continued to stare at every inch of the building in front of me. "My house.." said Mirza casually.

Deg.

"Mirza's sister's house...?" gagu say. My eyes turned to look at Mirza who seemed to be smiling faintly. It seemed like he was celebrating the victory of his success in taking me to his home. "It's a kidnapping, brother.." I said a little sniffly. "What do I care." he said as he closed the car door and passed leaving me still in my frustration. "Come on.." he said, who seemed to rule when I had not followed his steps. "No...!" I said ketus who managed to stop his steps. He turned his body and looked at me. "I'm not going in, before you tell me why you brought me into this house?" my words are getting tighter.

Without answering any questions, Mirza's sister spurred a step toward me. And again without the ba-bi-bu he lifted my body and placed it on his right shoulder. I was surprised at his treatment. For a moment I struggled while beating him. "Down, brother.." I said annoyed. Instead of lowering, Mirza just spur the pace quickly. Until in the middle room then Brother Mirz dropped me right on a white sofa.

"Mira....!" said a woman out loud.

Deg.

Hearing that distinctive sound, my memory instantly strengthened. I'm sure the voice belonged to Mama Mellisa, sister Mirza's mom. My gaze immediately turned to the source of the sound. And sure enough, Mama Mellisa's standing in the doorway. His eyes stared fixedly. I was stunned to see the woman who had been my mother-in-law. Not much change for him. She was beautiful even though some strokes had adorned her face.

"If not, there will be more questions that he asks. So to make it faster, then Mirza carried it" said sister Mirza while throwing her body on the sofa not far from me.

"Ma.." I said shortly after Mama Mellisa stood before me. I grabbed his hand and kissed the back of his hand with reverence. "How are you, Fara...?" ask her with a trembling voice. There was a clear feather floating in the corner of his eye. "Good, Ma. Mom how...?" my spoken. "Well, baby." said the mother, hugging me tightly. Her tears were unstoppable again. And so it is with me.

"Mama's been wanting to see you Fara for a long time. Mama wants to be your mom again. There is or is no relationship because of the marriage bond. Not as your in-laws but your mama" said Mama Mellisa. I'm speechless. Only my tears reveal how I feel right now.

"Hearing stories about the journey of your life, mama became sad" said mama. "And my mother always asked me to take you to this house. Especially when you lose your sight. And I almost took you to this house, not to Faaz's doctor's house" Mirza said. "But Mirza doesn't approve of it." said Mama Mellisa. "Ma, I'm just keeping Fara feeling" Mirza said. I don't know what he meant by keeping my feelings in check.

"Mom...!" shouted a beautiful girl. He ran over to Mama Mellisa. "Kok woke up, unfortunately Oma...?" mama Mellisa said as she clasped the girl's body into her lap. "Shanum scared. There was lightning." he said while hugging Mama Mellisa who he called Oma. Is it possible that he is Mirza's son? The boy who used to be my strong reason for leaving Mirza's sister.

"He's shanum, Amara's son." said Mirza. I round my eyes at Mirza's sister. "Yes.." I said a little surprised. "Shanum, this is Aunt Fara" said Mama Mellisa introduced me. The boy turned his attention to me. His eyes were so comfortable looking at every inch of my face. "Aunty right the one in papa's room photo? In papa's wallet there is also." said Shanum while looking at my face. Not to mention the end he said, sister Mirza had closed her mouth and raised her body while occasionally made to chuckle by tickling her stomach. And I stared at the departure of the two with a faint smile.

"That's how Mirza is." said Mama Mellisa. His eyes turned to look at me with a smile. His hand rubbed the back of my hand. "You know, Fara...Mirza never moved on. And didn't mean to do it. Her world remains with you even when she is with Amara" said Mama Mellisa again.

Deg.

Why my heart gets so stiff. The rhythm managed to make the strange swish return to my heart. My face felt reddened to hear the words of Mama Mellisa oncegis fruitful to my attitude.

"Ma.." said Brother Mirza as he descended the stairs. "Fara is not what it used to be. Fara loves Keanu so much, her husband" said sister Mirza as she sat on the couch. Mom smiled. "I'm sorry." he said in a slightly trembling voice. Meanwhile, his hand was patting the back of my hand. "Take Fara to the room. Let Fara rest" said Mama Mellisa. "But Fara didn't mean to stay the night, Ma.." I said as I struggled on his arm. I don't know why I did it. Perhaps her motherly side has disturbed my longing for the lost figure of Amah.

"It's night. Just stay. Mama also still wants to talk to you tomorrow morning" said Mama Mellisa. A mother's words are like orders to me. I'm speechless..I thought I was wondering what Mama Mellisa said. "Fara.." said Mama while rubbing my shoulder. I really gasp. Reverie caved. And a smile I explained while looking at my mother and sister Mirza alternately. "Alright, Ma.." I said ending the anxiety. "Then I will deliver." said Mirza with a faint smile. There was relief at the end of his gaze. I don't know why it happened that way.

I followed his steps carefully. Same with Mirza. His steps are being detained. I'm sure because I'm following her steps. "Please, big lady." said Mirza with a smile as she arrived in front of a room with a simple carved door. His hand turned the doorknob and opened it. "Thank you.." I said with a smile and almost chuckled.

Stand me in the doorway. When I started the first step, my attention was distracted. My gaze was fixed on the steps on the left side of the room, at the end of the hallway. "It's headed for the roof. The place to relax me and mama" said Mirza who seemed to know the question in his heart while looking at him. I also did a short while smiling.

"Fara wants to go upstairs...?" ask Mirza. His tone of speech impressed that he was so careful. "Can...?" ask me while raising my eyebrows slightly and unraveling the smile. "Of course." he said as he pulled my arm. "Oh, sorry." he said again when he realized that he was holding my arm. He became angry over his own face. While I only smile especially when I see the hubbub of his attitude.
