72. Decrease Ego

"Parents, huh?" Shaka went back to silence thinking of the right answer.

"Later if there is time we play to Oma's house with Opa, yes. But not soon enough," break up Shaka.

"Why wait later?"

"When Dad's parents are busy, they're rarely home."

"If Pakde?"

"Sometimes I'll take you to Pakde's house too. Now we go to the bedroom and it's time to sleep. Daddy's mommy's gonna rest too."

Finally Nimas and Shaka were able to breathe with relief as the conversation was over there. The two parents always accompanied Bryan to sleep. After the boy is slumbering, they will leave Bryan alone in the room. That's what they did to get Bryan to be independent since childhood.

"It would be nice if we also introduce Bryan to Mama and Papa. Sometimes we take them to rumha, who knows with the presence of Bryan, Mama and Papa open his heart," said Nimas argued while bringing his body to the room.

"Yes, if the response is good, what Mas is afraid is that the response they give when we come is not good. Don't you feel sorry for Bryan? He's a kid, he's too small to know about our problems with my parents. Mas just didn't want to dirty Bryan's brain with words from them. You see now, Mama came here only once, right? Because basically, Mama apologized yesterday just want Mas to come back without accepting you. That was the point Mama came here five years ago. You know, right now the reason why Mas was so chuckling not to go home? Now not only are you the reason, but our son too. So, this is the last thing we talked about my parents. We're sleeping now!"

"Doctor, please save my husband, Doc. My husband passed out in the bathroom." Ms. Marisaa in front of the ER room pleaded with a fat male doctor to save her husband lying in the bathroom with a flaming water faucet.

Mr. Malik, who is getting older, looks thinner and more easily sick. Five years of maintaining his ego and prestige apparently undermined Mr. Malik's physical health.

Whatever a father is. He is still a father who loves the child will not be consumed by time let alone age. Yes, of course Mr. Malik still has affection for the child. Although a few years ago he said that he had no children other than Bryan, in fact he still misses his youngest child.

Shaka is a submissive child in Pak Malik, his youngest child is more manageable than Bryan. That is why Shaka who he presented a company on his birthday. Because between Bryan and Shaka, Shaka is willing to continue the effort he built from below.

Five years more life without knowing the state of the child makes Mr. Malik's mind depressed. However, he who is stubborn and put forward his ego that makes him stop finding out and hold the longing alone. Until finally the man who is almost sixty often fell ill and in and out of the hospital. And now it is Mr. Malik's worst condition during his in and out of the treatment site.

"The patient's blood pressure is very high, ma'am. So I hope the patient's family can pay attention to the patient further. Such as diet, factors of mind, and also the happiness of the patient, because if not treated quickly and appropriately, then this is at risk referring to serious diseases, such as heart attacks, strokes, and other diseases, and kidney trouble."

"No, Ma. That's why I told you to take care of patients like I said before."

"Stukurlah. Thank you, Doc. Can I come in?"

Ms. Marissa immediately entered her husband's room as soon as she got a nod from the doctor. The woman saw her unconscious husband with a paled face and several medical devices attached to his body.

"Pa, how's Papa doing? Is anyone sick? Papa wants what? Wanna eat? Or what to drink?"

"No, Ma. Papa is much better, no need to worry about Papa. Papa's fine, as he already is, Papa can definitely get through this."

At a time like this the feeling of wanting to bring Shaka back home felt up to the top. The ego of Ms. Marissa who is as big as her husband makes the woman also survive with a longing that binds somehow to when.

While Mr. Malik has now started thinking about giving up on his ego. He was eager to meet the child. He wanted to enjoy the rest of his life by getting together and seeing his son at all times.

"Papa wants to see Shaka, Ma. Papa gives up, Papa thinks Papa's youngest son will come home if he lives and lives the day without us. But Papa was wrong. He can live without us. Papa wants to see you" said Mr. Malik in a weak tone.

Ms. Marissa who also felt the same feelings and things of course welcomed the decision of the husband with pleasure and a sense of haru.

"Mama's gonna find Shaka, Pa. Mama will take him home and stay with us again. Mama's gonna pick him up."

"We let Nimas come home. It seems they both love each other. They've been tested by living without luxury, but in fact they've been able to get through it until now."

Although Ms. Marissa did not agree with her husband's words, she still agreed not to debate. He did not care whether Shaka and Nimas loved each other or not, but until then he would never accept Nimas as his son-in-law. Although one day they will live under one roof, he will regard Nimas as another.

"Yes, Pa. Anyway now is the time for Papa to rest at home, enjoy our old age. No longer take care of the company, whether it's from home or coming directly to the office. Jita leaves everything back to Shaka. Let him take care of the company again."

And without a second thought or waiting for a longer time, the next day Ms. Marissa went straight to Shaka's house.
