Leon parked his car in his parents' yard. Previously he had asked the private driver about the condition of his mother now. Her mother's private driver said that Emely had not left home or worked.
Leon stepped inside the house, he walked up the stairs and stopped right in front of the room door.
Tok tock..
"Ma." call Leon.
There was no reply from inside the room, Leon tried knocking on the door again.
"Maaa... It's me Leon. Mama's inside, right? Can I come in?"
There is no lawfulness either. Leon finally decided to go straight in. The door is not in the lock.
"Ma.."
Leon went deeper, he did not find the figure he was looking for. Until finally he heard a groaning sound coming from the bathroom.
"To.. Please.."
The voice came from his mother, Leon stepped hurriedly towards the bathroom.
"Ma.. Mama why? Ma'am.." Leon banged on the bathroom door.
"Leon.. Please mama..!" pinta the woman, a voice sounded like people were enduring pain.
Because the door was locked, Leon decided to break down the bathroom door. The first kick failed, the second also failed, the third time succeeded.
"Mama.." Leon finds Emely sitting on the front floor of the sink. He immediately approached the middle-aged woman and helped wake her up.
Leon held his mother to bed. The woman Leon lay down, half of the man's body covered. Leon sat on the edge of the bed, worried about what was happening.
"What's going on, ma?" leon asked after making sure his mother was lying comfortably.
"The floor is slippery, mama slipped," replied the woman while still enduring the pain in her buttocks.
Leon was silent for a moment, he felt sorry to see his mother in such pain right now.
"You're going to the hospital?" tawar Leon's.
Emely shook. "Not necessary" he refused.
Leon took a breath. "Papa's work?"
"Yes." Yeah."
Leon was silent for a moment, he looked at the woman who had given birth to him quite deeply. Silence began to slip between them.
"So who was there when my mom needed help? Papa or mama's job?"
Emely was silent, she looked at her son growing up without any attention, affection, and upbringing from him.
"Did you demand a confession from your mother, Leon?" Emely asked back.
Leon pursed his lips. "No, ma. I think you have also admitted in your heart, if I am the one who is always there when you need someone. Even papa didn't come while mom was in the hospital, did he?"
"Leon-"
"I hope you realize, if in your selfishness there is a child who needs the attention of mama, the affection of mama, the embrace of mama, the embrace of mama, the love of mama, not just money."
"Ma, just look at me once. Look, ma, your son is growing up. Mama should be grateful, I never grudge what mama gave me. In fact, there was not even a hint of hatred planted for mama. Every day, I am still with the same expectations. Waiting for Mama at the dinner table, hoping we can eat together. I always wait for my mother before going to bed, hoping that she will accompany me to sleep. But every day I have to bury that hope deeply, every day I have to swallow disappointment. But every day I still create hope, even though in the end I know, in vain" continued the man.
Unknowingly, Emely let her tears hear every word Leon said. But he tried to prevent his tears from flowing.
"OK, Leon. Ok. I admit you were there when Mom needed help. Now tell me, what do you need in return?"
Leon looked at his mother in amazement, did his mother not understand at all what he was saying. Even his mother offered him a reward.
"I don't know what your heart is made of, when all I know is that your heart is soft, loving, not like mine!"
Leon got up from his seat and then moved from there.
Leon completely ignored the call of his mother, he really gave up on making his mother's heart melt and feel. But everything just feels useless.
If he hadn't been married to Lily, he might have gone to the club to vent his anger. Make women his escape.
While at home, Lily was just about to close her eyes to rest. But outside there were people knocking on his door repeatedly. Her mother was in the bathroom, so Lily decided to open the door.
"Good day, madam. Mr Leon's home?" ask a man who is none other than Drew.
"Well, don't you have an appointment with Leon?"
Drew looks confused. "Promise?"
"Yes, Leon left because he had an appointment with you" Lily replied.
Drew scratched his nape that was not itchy, a feeling he had no promise whatsoever with his master. Even last night his master asked that this afternoon he come to the house.
"I don't have any appointments with Mr. Leon, madam. Instead I came here because last night you asked me to come home."
Hearing Leon's personal assistant's reply made Lily even more convinced that the man was covering up something from her. Butwhat?
Where did you go, Leon? Think Lily.
While Drew thought maybe his master was having an appointment with another woman. But the thought he immediately brushed, he should not think badly. Because last week's woman who came to the office was forcibly evicted at the request of her master.
From outside the gate, Leon's car enters the yard. Lily asks Drew to enter the house, while he stands in the doorway.
"But, madam-" protested Drew.
"I need Leon's honesty" Lily concluded, Drew finally complied with her request.
Leon got out of his car with a gloomy face. But as soon as he saw Lily standing in the doorway, he immediately put on a full-fledged smile.
"Why stand here? Waiting for me?"
Leon is about to embrace Lily's body, but is soon tepis by the woman. Leon is confused by Lily's attitude.
"Why?"
"Where from?" Lily asked back.
"So I told you, I have an appointment with Drew" Leon replied confidently.
"Really?"
"Yes, why?"
"Is that right, Aspri Drew?" asked Lily half-screaming, of course it made Leon amazed.
"Ask who?" Leon started to panic.
Suddenly Drew appears from inside the house, Leon is getting scared because he was caught lying.
"Drew?"
Leon looked back, unaware that his assistant's car was parked there.
"Sorry, sir. I came here at your request last night" Drew said.
"It's a liar, isn't it?" lily said, she did not think out if Leon dared to lie to her.
"Lily, I can explain to you. Ly.." lt.." Leon is trying to catch up with Lily's steps who has now gone inside.
