Amaras
I entered the courtyard of my parents' second home after Mr. Ujang opened the gate. It turns out that my two brothers are inside. I know it's because there's their car in the yard.
Huff!!!
I'm sure, Brother Daniel has said it to mommy and papi could be on Nathan's brother too.
"Assalamualaikum!", I saluted because I saw my brothers and my veiled sister-in-law sitting on the living room sofa.
"Halaikumsalam!", they answered. Soon, my mom and dad joined me there.
Papi's gaze looked so sharp to me. I suddenly salted him.
"Mi, Pi, Brother Daniel, brother Nathan, mba Mayang!", I said as I nodded slowly. My brothers just nodded thinly.
"You want to clean first, please! After that, we need to talk!", papi said. Mami who sat next to papi, rubbed papi's arm.
I just nodded for a while, after which I actually went into my room to clean myself up. Lucky I was praying in the office before I went home.
If anyone wants to know, today I am even very tired. Tired of my work, tired of my physical and inner workings.
About twenty minutes later I went back to the living room to see my family. They are still faithfully waiting for my presence among them.
"Sorry, it's been waiting for Mara a long time!", I said as I sat on the single sofa. Nathan has no children yet, and Daniel already has Dhea. His wife and son-in-law both died some time ago. And also one of the reasons I'm here right now.
"What's wrong!", said Nathan. He was gentle and calm, unlike Daniel's brother.
"Have you prayed on Deck?", asked Nathan.
''I was in the office, brother!", I replied slowly. Now Papi's eyes are highlighting me. What does papi want to say?
"Mara?!"
"Yes, Pi!"
"So, who is the man you will make your partner with?", asked papi without further ado.
"I mean papi?"
"But you think you understand. Papi doesn't need to affirm papi's question!", said papi. I glanced at Brother Daniel, however he knew about the incident between me and Alby in my apartment.
I took a long breath. Tired, I'm really tired!
"Mara's Jawab! How could papa's daughter be in a relationship with two men at once!", said papi suddenly.
"Astaghfirullah, Mara doesn't do me Pi!"
"You so, who's your lover! HS Group CEO or doctor Frans?"
"Gga Pi, Mara has nothing to do with anyone. Especially the two of them."
Papi took his breath slowly. I'm ready to hear what Papi will say. I glanced at Brother Daniel. He didn't react. There is a possibility if brother Daniel has not told anything to papi or mami.
"So, that means you have nothing to do with Alby, right?", asked Papi. I'm nodding.
"Yes, Pi!"
"Then can you get into a relationship with doctor Frans again?"
"Related, Pi!"
''Why not?", asked papi.
"Because it can't be Pi!"
"Don't tell me you're still expecting your former superior, captain Febri huh?"
"Oh Allah, no Pi. Absolutely not. Mara was also on good terms with Febri's wife."
"Then why don't you accept doctor Frans again? You guys have been in love in that country, now he's following you here. That means he's serious about you. There is no reason for the distance to be the reason you split up!"
Frans told papi that the reason we split was because of distance??? Wow, that's great actor.
"Mara, listen to mami!", now the mami is speaking. I looked up at my mom.
"You're an adult, son. You also see your mommy and papi are this old. It's not natural that we want to see our youngest daughter get married?"
"Mi..!", whine.
"Always...Frans said you guys spent time together there. What's wrong, son, you're in a relationship with her again."
"Mami know, you're both grown up. Mami is actually disappointed, but whatever you do is your own responsibility"
"Wait? What does Mi mean?", I asked ascertaining what mommy was thinking or perhaps papi was thinking.
"Otherwise? You and Frans have spent a lot of time together out there. Perhaps yes, now you have repented and come closer to the almighty."
"Wait..wait! So, you mean 'spending time together' with a meaning that connotes so!?"
Mommy and Papi didn't answer. But I know, they must think that way. Frans' words are ambiguous. He can generate a lot of speculation. Moreover, both parents who do give freedom to their children as long as they are responsible for their choices.
"Mi, Pi, brother! You know what I look like! How could you think that..if..ashhh!", I was massaging my own temple.
"Dek, mami and papi don't mean to accuse me like that!", Mba Mayang approached me. He rubbed my shoulders gently. We weren't so close, but I knew he was nice to me.
I nodded after that I got up from the sofa!
"Papi hope, Frans is the right choice for you Mara?!", said papi suddenly. Mba Mayang glanced at me, then she looked at her husband instead.
"Pi, don't be like that!" said Brother Nathan.
"Than, your brother is all grown up. When will he be alone?", asked Nathan.
I who was already in control of emotions finally chose to say what really happened between me and Frans out there.
"Y, Pi! By Allah for the Messenger of Allah. Amara has never done anything out of bounds during her relationship with Frans. And mami papi needs to know! He's not as good as papi shadowin. She..he...."
"The young man in the dead lives his wife?", asked papi. Frans said that???
"What's wrong with the status of a widower?"
"Pi, that Frans...!"
"She is willing to move citizenship even her faith in order to be with you again Amara!", said papi with a slightly firm voice.
"Bapy! Pardon me! Papi promised Mara. Papi won't be selfish on Mara's life choices. Papi was only selfish when he wanted me to replace Papi in the company. I've been according to Pi. I even left the military world I loved. For who? For papi! Amara has defeated Pi!", I covered my hands.
"But Mara beg Pi, Mara's business will be married to whom. Mara please, Pi. With Mara please! Please, let Mara decide for herself what the future of mara will look like!", I said with teary eyes.
Papi took a few steps forward with difficulty as he used a cane to prop up the kakiny. Suddenly the papi slapped me in the cheek.
Plakkkkp!
"Fire!", cried my mother and my brothers.
"Mara, listen to papi. Papi gives you freedom. But that doesn't mean you can say that to your parents! Papa just wants to see the happiness of papi's youngest daughter before papi dies. But if it turns out the way you look at papi like that! Please do whatever you think is right Amara. Let's just say what you want Papi never told you!"
I rubbed my cheek. It hurts, but I'm sure papi hurts more because he's disappointed in me.
"Pi, let's go to the room!", take papi to mami. Mami also led Papi to their room.
"Sir, you also rest in the room!", brother Nathan rubbed my shoulder. Then he and Mayang left the living room.
Me and Daniel's brother. He grabbed my shoulder! Just suck it up for a second! And then I drowned my head in his chest.
"Bapi and mami must be disappointed with me sister!", I said sobbing.
"Let them calm down, you know what papi looks like when he's angry. It must not be long!", said brother Daniel.
"But brother, Frans...?"
"You can talk to Frans if you can't be with him. Maybe...your feelings are skewed towards Alby?", guess Brother Daniel.
I looked at the smiling brother Daniel.
"Don't hesitate to make a choice. Follow your heart. Brother is fierce, can not be soft rich brother Nathan. But, brother knows you better, than mami papi let alone brother Nathan."
I'm nodding.
"Thank you Brother!"
"Hey, now you just rest. Tired right?", asked Daniel. I nodded back. After that I went to my room.
I have to find out with Alby tomorrow so there's clarity between Amara and her! Daniel's mind before he went to his room.
*****
