Bondage of Love

The Pain of Mama Attalia

This morning Kamisha began to arrange clothes and some equipment that he would bring home. The doctor has said Enzio can go home.

At the moment Xander is taking care of the administration and some of the drugs that have to be taken home.

"It's over?"

"Not yet, if Zio has woken up it's hard to leave behind - stay."

"Hmm, boy don't bother mommy. Come with daddy." Xander took Zio from Kamisha's sling. But it would be surprising that he was presented with the appearance of the Kamisha twin hills that were seen because of the buttons of his clothes that were loose or maybe he had finished breastfeeding.

"Sha, no."

"What?"

"Do I need to clearly call it?"

"What, I don't understand."

Xander smiled mischievously. "That's my favorite toy and Zio looks."

Kamisha looked down and was shocked. "Oh my god!" his yell. He turned his body around and immediately fixed the buttons of his shirt. Kamisha's face was red. "I. I want to be sorted out first."

"Okay, Zio and I walked down the park for a bit."

Kamisha breathed with relief as Xander left from there. Kamisha immediately cleaned up the goods. Alex was already waiting and started putting some stuff in the car.

After all, Kamisha came out to say goodbye to some nurses who had done their job well. Kamisha follows Xander to the park. He just invited to play Zio, talking to himself as if they were talking.

"Xander." call him

"It's over?"

"Of course, let's go home. I miss Axel."

"So mama called, later in the day should go back to Bandung."

"Why hunt?"

"Later tonight there was an invitation from his best friend who wanted to marry his son."

"Is mom not tired? moreover, these few days have to take care of Axel alone."

"There is mbok Sri."

"Yes but Axel wants the same mama to continue."

They walked to the front of the hospital lobby. Alex is ready for the car.

Xander opened Kamisha's door and then handed Zio to his lap. After all, Alex drives back to Kamisha's house.

The atmosphere on Monday morning was very crowded. Activity begins after the holidays.

"Sha's."

"Hmm." replied Kamisha who was still busy fixing Zio's clothes. "What's wrong?"

"Why don't you come back to Bandung? we go home." asked Xander heartily.

Kamisha stopped his activities for a while, but then continued on again. Moreover, Zio seemed to be hungry.

Xander waited for an answer from Kamisha, but it was as if his wife was reluctant to answer. With a sigh he turned his gaze to look out the window.

Kamisha was still preoccupied with Zio. After Zio calmed down as he was breastfeeding, he began to look towards Xander.

"I'll think about it." she replied.

Xander turned his head and looked towards Kamisha as if he could not believe what he was hearing. Although not a definite answer but at least Kamisha there is a response in a good direction.

"Have you forgiven me?"

"Look at it later."

"Hey, I need a definite answer."

"Don't make me Xander."

"Alright. alright.sorry.sorry. I won't ask you again."

The silence came back until they arrived at the house that had been welcomed by mama and Axel.

"Oh Oma's grandchild, don't get sick anymore." mama Attalia carried and kissed Enzio. "You're also Xander, don't get sick and don't worry mama."

"Yes my dear mother, I won't be sick anymore. You're my strength." replied Xander, kissing Attalia's mama's cheek.

Kamisha went in to put dirty clothes to wash mbok Sri.

"It's Mr Xander's all in the wash here, ma'am?"

"Yes" answered Kamisha.

Mbok Sri smiled happily.

"Eh, why smile - smile?"

"Heheheh, I'm glad that Misha is the same as Mr. Xander can come back again."

"Sri's mom, should I go back with my husband or not?"

"Mbak must." mbok Sri put on a serious face. "Master really loves Misha. Proven time pregnant almost every night you come here."

"What mbok!"

Mbok Sri closed his mouth that was too open.

"What does it mean to say that Xander used to come here when I was pregnant with Zio."

"Engg. it. anu.. mbak." mbok Sri terbata - brick.

"Mbok Sri, don't hide anything from me."

"Actually when Misha was pregnant, the master often came here. I suspect there are footprints on the terrace keep me pura sleep and it turns out after I intai it's master. He always comes to Misha's room."

"Oh it's worth it if my sleep night is calm, it turns out there is Xander. Quickly Zio immediately tacked on Xander's sling."

"That's right Misha." arrived - arriving from the back of the mama Attalia joined in the conversation.

"Mama? so mom knows everything?"

"Well, it's time for mama to tell me. So this house is not the mom who is looking for it but Xander, including all of Zio's baby equipment. Before deciding to do treatment in Singapore Xander is often silent to see you. Mama was very angry at that time because she became a coward. However, he is still the only mother's son."

"Why didn't mom tell me?"

"Mama couldn't bear to tell stories at first, but because your heart was still far from being sorry for your husband so she abandoned the intention to tell stories and also gave Xander a chance to apologize to you."

"Ma, I thought Xander didn't notice us at all, but it turned out___."

"Not only that, why in a short time your store has so many customers. It's because Xander bought it."

"But why be silent?"

"That's where Xander's fault lies. But now he's sorry. Before you go home to Bandung, you want to see you reunited. Why live apart if you really love each other, need each other."

"Ma, I___."

"Just calm down, you're not forcing" said the mother with a smile. "Mama will go home, take good care of the children."

"Thank you for understanding, ma."

Mama hugged Kamisha gently before returning home to Bandung. Kamisha looked full haru, a mother's struggle for her son's happiness and that's mama.

"Xander's."

"Yes." Yeah."

"You didn't drive Mama home? I'm worried."

"There is Alex. I'll take care of my hotel here and maybe the day after tomorrow I'll go back to Bandung."

"Come home?"

Xander nodded.

"Usaha here?"

Kamisha was a bit disappointed because the day after Xander was going home to Bandung. What if Zio's fussy at midnight, or maybe Axel needs Xander at school. But somehow it all couldn't come straight out of Kamisha's mouth. Everything is confusing.

"Oyeah, I'll take Mama to the airport. Maybe I'll be back in the afternoon because I have to review the hotel's work."

Kamisha. "Be careful" he said later.

It was like Xander was hugging Kamisha after hearing her words. But all that I]a hold because he does not want to rush, he wants everything to run seijin Kamisha.

Xander smiled and immediately headed for the car to drive Mama home.

"Well, deserted. Oma's home." lamented Axel.

"Tumben, usually the four of us are also fine." Kamisha gently stroked her son's head.

"I miss the atmosphere in Bandung, I miss my friends there."

"Propay a minute, dear." Kamisha tried to calm Axel's heart.

Without feeling the day is already late afternoon. Kamisha waiting for the arrival of Xander was discussed with Zio and Axel who were playing with mbok Sri.

Why Xander hasn't come home, he said it was only until the afternoon. Or don't - don't meet the same Goddess keep them dating. Ahhhh!!! no - no why my mind so traveling where - where.

Before long a car stopped in front of the house.

"Daddy!" axel shouted running to greet him. With one jump he was already in Axel's arms. While Zio's hand moved - motion as if knowing his daddy was coming.

"Axel down. Let daddy shower and change."

"Good mommy." Axel's coming down. "But we played together."

Xander nodded, he then approached Zio who was moving - motion. "Oh, you miss daddy boy." Xander kissed Zio's puffed cheeks. After that his views shifted to Kamisha.

"Go take a shower first."

Xander nodded and then went inside the house.

Kamisha prepared dinner. While Zio he put on Axel.

Xander came out of the bathroom and joined them. Kamisha looked at the scene with glazed eyes. He felt selfish because he separated father and son. Separating their happiness.

Arrive - arrive. mobile phone rings.

"Xander, your phone's ringing."

"From who?" tanyanya while tickling Zio's stomach.

"Sir Alex."

"Oh, maybe I'll tell you that mom's here." Xander took the phone from Kamisha's hand and received a call.

"Hello Alex."

"Good afternoon sir."

"Mama has arrived?"

"Hm."

"Why silence?"

"Sorry, sir. I am currently in the hospital."

"Why? who's sick? I want to talk to Mama, give her a phone."

Because Xander's rather high tone made Kamisha approach to know what happened.

"Right now the lady is being treated in the hospital."

"What! mama's sick?!"

"Yes sir. After disembarking from the airport, the mistress complained of her chest tightness. After that he fainted."

"What did the doctor say?"

"Mrs had a heart attack."

"Oh my god."

"I'll be there."

Call terminated. Xander immediately booked a ticket and was lucky there was still the last flight.

"Mama why?" ask Kamisha worriedly

"Mama's got a heart attack, now in the hospital. I have to go home, Misha."

"Well, I know. I'll help you pack."

Kamisha immediately helped Xander stuff some clothes into the suitcase. Because the clothes are not much, it does not take long.

"Should I go with you?" doubtfully - doubtfully Kamisha offered herself.

"No need, Zio's sick. It takes a lot of rest. Don't travel far."

"All right."

After saying goodbye to Axel and Zio, Xander immediately drove his car to the airport.

There was something stuck in Kamisha's heart. He was very worried about Xander who currently looked anxious, confused, sad. The person who had always loved him was lying weakly in the hospital.

"Why is Misha daydreaming?"

"I'm worried about Mom but I'm more worried about Xander. He needs someone to accompany him in a fragile time like this."

"How do you know mbak?"

Kamisha took a deep breath with a mantab he said. "Mbok, help me pack. We're going back to Bandung."

"Usaha cake?"

"There are employees and they're already good at making cakes. So why worry."

"Good mbak." answered mbok Sri excited.

Kamisha was determined to accompany the man she loved so much, namely daddynya children. He will accompany the man forever. Whatever happens, he doesn't want his household to be like this anymore. The household must be strong.

With passion Axel also helped Kamisha bring their goods. Tonight Kamisha sent items they had to carry such as baby supplies, books Axel with land lines. Meanwhile, he, the children and mbok Sri have booked tickets for the earliest departure to Bandung.

Meanwhile.

"How's mama doing?"

"Still the same sir, Doctor Budi handled it."

"I'll see the doctor for a minute."

"Mother rest first."

"I'm fine."

Xander rushes to the doctor's room to ask about your mother's latest condition. What triggers mama's pain is stress and also fatigue. The doctor advised that the mood of the mother is well maintained. Because of the age factor that sometimes makes parents need attention.

After coming out of the doctor's room Xander accompanied the mother who was still unconscious. He did not at all let go of his grasp from the hands of the woman who had struggled to raise him. Unknowingly, he fell asleep next to his mother due to exhaustion.

🌸🌸🌸🌸

This morning Xander woke up to a soft caress on his head. Mom's hand she thought. He slowly opened his eyes. But a few seconds later he felt disappointed because his mother was still unconscious.

"Xander." call someone.

He looks. "Misha" he said softly. His eyes widened as if he could not believe what he saw.

With a smile full of tenderness Kamisha approached Xander and hugged her.

"Dear, it's me." she whispered in her arms. "I'm not leaving you again. I will accompany you, forever." promise Kamisha while kissing Xander's forehead. "Mama's gonna be fine. You're calm, baby, I'm right next to you."

Xander hugged Kamisha while sobbing. "Thank you, you're coming back with me."

"That's because I love you Xander. I can't be away from you, baby."
