BASEBALL WITH MY SON (18 AGAIN)

CHANGE DESTINY

After boarding twice public transportation, Adrian finally managed to arrive in front of the gate of Aksara school that looks very quiet. Coincidentally it is currently an odd semester holiday for all students who make school in liburkan and some students who live in Dormitory also decided to return to their respective Houses, respectively, that's why there's not a single human we can find there other than a locked fence and an empty dormitory.

For a moment he stared around the front area of the school gate, trying to find a way to get inside. But there was not a single entrance that could be used to enter the school area. Until finally, he chose to climb the gate full of reckless. He also could not think of any other way, if considering the time on his watch continued to run fast.

Fortunately, Adrian managed to climb the school gate safely without the slightest injury. So, he no longer needed to waste too much time. So, without much ado, he immediately ran to the school area a little far from the front gate.

With hurried steps and sweat drenched in his clothes, he occasionally stole a glance at every floor of the building and over the building that was the scene of Aksara's suicide. Until he managed to find the shadow of Aksara who was running up the stairs on the third floor. Apparently, Aksara wants to go to the roof of the school building.

I don't know where Aksara got the key from the roof door of the building, but it's definitely not the right time for Adria to think about it. Again, he had to run faster to catch up with Aksara. For a moment he felt as if he was running as fast as he could to pass through the three Base in order to obtain a number on the Home Plate. And it felt, the time that kept swirling in his watch and the movement of the footsteps of the Aksara that was getting away from before him as if reminding him back to the defenders who were eyeing him.

"Aksara!" his screams that looked very tense, he continued to run up the stairs which then connected him to the roof of the school building. And there, he could see the position of his son who was standing on the edge of the roof of the building while looking at him.

It seems that Aksara immediately turned his head back when Adrian called his name earlier, it was clear that the panic face shown Aksara as well as the look of confusion because he did not know Adrian at all.

Adrian stopped exactly a few meters in front of Aksara, he himself did not stop stepping closer that could have made his son jump right then and there.

"Stop! I beg you to act stupid like this, you think jumping off this building can solve your problems. Instead, you're wrong." Adrian sounded like he was yelling at Aksara, he could not lie to his heart that he was feeling a great fear. In fact, it is much scarier than a Baseball match against the strongest Team.

But it seems, what was said by Adrian even made Aksara become angry. Obviously Aksara was not happy with what Adrian said, where he might also listen to the chatter of Adrian who is a stranger and looks the same age as him.

"I don't know you and you don't deserve to judge me with that opinion of yours, you have absolutely no idea what I'm going through!" snapped back Aksara.

"I don't know how you're feeling right now, but that doesn't mean you have to end your life like this. Don't you feel sorry for your parents? They're gonna be ruined when they see their only son trying to end his life with the moron you want to do now, you don't want them to keep feeling guilty about losing you." Adrian began to be frustrated, he seemed to be pouring out everything he felt so far in every sentence he just said to the Scriptures.

"In fact, they would be more embarrassed to have a child who fails like me" said Aksara, who rejected every word she heard from Adrian, like a very depressed person who lost his confidence. In fact, he was determined to shift his feet more to the edge of the roof again which obviously makes Adrian more panicked.

And so panicked, Adrian went forward a few steps while extending his hand to Aksara. He could no longer filter the words in his mind and spontaneously shouted to the Scriptures.

"Your father is not angry at you at all, he is sad when he listens to your failure. But he's not really disappointed in you. He's not telling you anything right now, but believe me he still trusts your full ability. You should understand, Aksara!" adrian shouted that sounded spontaneously blunt to his son.

Clearly Aksara was confused by him, he was stunned for a while and tried to digest Adrian's speech just now. And it was at this moment that Adrian drew near to Aksara and captured his body. Then, he pulled his son away from the edge of the roof deftly until both lay on the roof floor of the building and made Adrian's elbow injured, he said, because of dragging a floor made of natural stone when it fell just now.

"You okay?" adrian asked who tried to sit down while putting his hand on Aksara's shoulder. Then, not a moment he immediately embraced Aksara tightly like a father's embrace to his son.

Aksara was silent for a while, for some reason he could smell the scent of his father's signature perfume in Adrian's arms.

After being satisfied enough to hug his son, Adrian immediately released his embrace from the son. He let out a sigh of relief for a while, "Thank God you survived, I can go crazy imagining you jumping in front of my eyes."

"Who are you? You care about me and it's as if you've known my Papa for a long time, not to mention the smell of your perfume is very similar to it." Aksara stood up, he moved a few steps away from Adrian.

Adrian who began to realize that his actions were really suspicious must have become worried, it is also impossible that he admitted his identity to Aksara at this time. Surely Aksara would not believe what he said, after all he did not want his son to know about him.

For a while, he began to daydream in his mind to string the right words in answer to the Aksara question. Fortunately, fate was kind to her, because not long after he recalled his goal before being stuck in the present plus he also had time to remember that a few months ago he had become a star of Parfum advertising televised as well as brand ambassador for perfume products that are usually used Coincidentally also the price of perfume is affordable and the right choice to be a reasonable reason.

"I'm your Papa's fan, so don't be surprised if I deliberately buy the same perfume as your Papa. Anyway, I am a loyal fan of Adrian Andromeda Wicaksono. And I'm not gonna stay silent, when I see her son commit suicide like this."

Aksara smiled sickly, "So, you're just my Papa's fan? That means what you said before wasn't real, stupidly I almost believed you."

"I'm not lying, but everyone knows Adrian loved his son. He will not be disappointed in you, even if the news of your failure is trending in articles and television news. But, she would definitely never be the slightest bit ashamed of you. You also shouldn't give up straight away or let him down like this" Adrian said.

"Why is what you're saying true, what can an untalented person like me do?" he asked as if he had given up.

Adrian sighed for a moment, he could feel the despair of his son. A sense of dilemma and a mind that can no longer think rationally, something it did not even have in the past because it was born as a child who was very talented in baseball.

"If you weren't born talented, why don't you muster up all your determination and motivation to work harder? Not many yes athletes who do not have the talent from birth, but can be successful now because of effort and hard work. Why don't you try from the beginning?"

"You think motivation alone is enough to make you great? You can say it that easily because you never know what it's like to be born into a star family.

In fact, one failure alone is already considered embarrassing by fanatical fans like you." Aksara looked displeased, he clearly rejected everything Adrian said and walked away.

But Adrian did not give up. He did not want his son to continue to fall on this failure and could do more dangerous to his own life.

"Think of something, Adrian. There must be some reason that could motivate your son." Adrian continues to mutter in his mind, he tries to recall what happened after this.

Somehow he felt that there was a program that he had canceled unilaterally, because he is still grieving over the news of his son's death a few hours after the friendly match ended or a few minutes after the interview session with the media.

"If it does fail at the Lions League Club, why not try to participate in the selection of admission members of the Junior Baseball Team? I heard that Adrian will be the judging team for the selection, you don't want to try?"
