In the Zen house


Zen walked in lethargy. She had not expected her life story to be this complicated.


People who Zen love, it turns out the child of the woman who for 7 years is caring for her with affection.


Meanwhile, the lover of the heart was so disappointed with his mother.


Zen opened the lazy door.


Papa and his mother greeted with various questions.


" Zen, May why? Why did he suddenly leave while crying. Do you guys have a problem?" Mama Zen attacked her with various questions.


Zen let out a heavy breath. He dropped himself on the living room couch. He ruffled his hair rough.


" Zen.." said his mama again


" Let him calm down first ma" said papa to mama.


Zen actually refused to talk about this. But if not discussed, they will not find a common ground.


" May was my real son" said Zen suddenly.


My mom and dad were surprised. Moreover, her mama, she almost just dazed when she said that. Fortunately there was a papa beside nyam So papa managed to hold the body of the mother so as not to fall.


" What is Zen? You don't joke around" said Zen's mother.


" Yes ma. She's that girl that 8 years ago mom left with her dad." Zen continued his story.


Mama Zen who unexpectedly shut her mouth with her hands. She was so shocked.


He had not expected to meet his son in the current situation.


" May, very disappointed with my mom. He said, now mama is living happily with a new family, while mama left the child and husband in the village miserable." Zen added.


Mama Zen was crying so hard.


He felt very guilty towards Mayang, his daughter.


" So May's full name is Mayang?" ask mama Zen.


" Yes ma. Name's Mayang. But Zen would rather call him May."


Zen remembered. Whose father and mother knew, the name of the woman Zen loved was named May, without knowing her full name.


" Pa, please take mama to Mayang pa's place. Mama misses her so much." pinta mama Zen on her papa.


" May is still very hit ma. So even if you see her now, she won't want to see you. He was very disappointed." said Zen forbade his mother from leaving.


" Who Mayang lives with now Zen. We don't have any family in town?" ask mama curious.


" May lives with her mother. Ms. Yasmin.


Also his aunt, Aunt Mita." Zen replied explaining to mama.


" Who is Miss Yasmin and Aunt Mita?" ask mama Zen again.


" Obviously, it's the two people that May cares about at this time Ma. Two years after her mother left her, May's father passed away. So he's a kara." Zen added.


Zen's story increasingly makes his mother's heart sore. The girl who had been missed so much suffered because of her actions.


" Mayang, I'm sorry, son's mother." said mama Zen slowly.


" Why Zen's life should be like this. Two very Zen women dear, can not unite." his cries spilled.


" It's all Zen's fault. The wrong mom. Sorry mama.." they cried in the arms.


Papa who had listened earlier, now also sobbed. She wiped her eyes behind the glasses. He was also saddened by his family situation.


She recalled 8 years ago, when Sarini came to her house to apply for a job.


He was a widower for 4 years.


Seeing the closeness of Sarini and Zen, he finally married Sarini who was also a bestatus widow. Sarini said she had a child in the village. But his son did not want to be taken to the city. His son would rather follow his father in the village.


Sarini is a good mother. He is very affectionate and considerate of Zen. Also to her.


She had no idea behind her kind nature, she had such a bitter past. That she had abandoned her child and husband leaving a deep scar in the child's heart.


Now he felt sorry for Zen. This is the first time Zen dares to fall in love and express love. But her love is hindered by her stepmother.


It's actually okay if Zen and May stick together. They have no blood relation.


But it looks like May still can't forgive her mother


" Zen, rest. I'll meet May tomorrow and talk to her about this. Now calm yourself, too, mother. Now we go to the room. I hope everything is back to how it was" said papa Zen


All according. Zen went to his room and mama still wants to clean the dining table.

The Mayang house


Mayang returned in a state of crying. It seems like his heart is not very good.


Ms. Yasmin and Aunt Mita who were in the tv room were surprised to see Mayang. Then Ms. Yasmin followed Mayang into her room.


" You why May?" ask Ms. Yasmin to Mayang.


Without answering, Mayang hugged Ms. Yasmin tightly. Ms. Yasmin is the only family she has.


Her crying broke. Aunt Mita also followed into the room.


After her cries subsided a little, then Ms. Yasmin asked again.


" What's up, honey? Why are you coming home in this situation?"


" Mayang Bu's real mother. It turns out that Mama Zen is the birth mother of Mayang. Mother who left me and father. Mother who had no feelings." Her cries broke again.


" So your mother is now Zen's stepmother, is it May?" Aunt Mita asked for an explanation of Mayang pepper.


Mayang can only nod his head


" It used to be, Mayang thought mom only worked in the city. Worked for a lot of money and would go back to his family. But it turns out Mayang's guess was wrong. Mother was happy with her new family, and would never look to see her. Whether her son and husband are alive, or gone." Mayang again vent his heart while sobbing.


" And now, the one Mayang loved, he had been cared for lovingly by the mother who had left him. Mayang hates mom. Mayang does not want to see mother again." added Mayang full of emotions


Ms. Yasmin calmed Mayang down through her warm embrace. Wearing long hair Mayang, rubbing the head Mayang lovingly.


" Mayang, you can't do that, son. Surely your mother has her own reasons why she did that to you. I have to be sincere and patient in this, baby. Now, if you want to cry, cry. Take out your hearts that are breaking. I'll always be ready to hear your story, son." Ms. Yasmin said warmly.


Mayang was no longer able to say any more words


He just wanted to cry so that this heart would calm down a little. Then Ms. Yasmin laid Mayang pepper on her lap. He rubbed Mayang's head lovingly, until Mayang was asleep in the lap of Ms. Yasmin
