Degrees of My House

CHAPTER 132

🌹HAPPY READING🌹

As promised, Wijaya is currently preparing to go to the hotel to meet Kiyai Rozak. Wijaya and Raina stay at Dee's house, while the others return to the hotel. Dee had offered Zahra a stay, but Ibra asked Zahra to stay back. He did not want to make matters worse with Zahra's existence.

What a poor boy. Zahra had to be a victim because of her parents' selfishness. The fate of the boy was not much different from that of Kina and Al. Adults sometimes do like to do what they think is good, but do not know the big consequences they will sacrifice.

Ibra is currently in the family room with Wijaya.

"Ibra, tonight take Al to the hotel where Kevin and the others are staying. We'll tell you everything that's happened so Al can take it all right. Papa is not able to bear this enormous burden, Ibra," said Wijaya.

"Just Al, Pa?" ask Ibra.

Wijaya nodded. "Only we men will solve it" said Wijaya.

"Alright," said Ibra obediently.

"Papa followed after the magrib to the hotel with Al, Ibra," said Wijaya.

Ibra. "Then Papa left first, Gala was waiting outside" said Wijaya and passed away leaving Ibra.

Huft, hopefully after this everything is done. The inner Ibra breathed out its heavy breath.

.....

Magrib is over, and Ibra and Al are on their way to the hotel following Wijaya and the others. On the grounds of wanting to take Al for a walk, Dee finally allowed them to go both ways. While at home, now there are only Raina, Dee and Kina. Adam went first with Wijaya.

This time Ibra brought his bike. Of course it was at Al's request. Dee actually did not allow Ibra to ride the bike, but at the persuasion of Al Dee finally relented.

Behind Ibra, the boy's hands were tightly coiled around Ibra's waist. The son and father looked very handsome with the leather jacket they were wearing. Al and Ibra looked like motorcycle gang boys. Al cheered happily, as this was what he had wanted long ago.

Not long after, Ibra's motorbike arrived at the hotel.

"We're going to the hotel, Abi?" ask Al to Ibra.

"Yes, Boy," Ibra answered while helping Al open his little helmet.

"Boy, whoever we'll meet later, this is all for our good. So Abi please, always listen to your heart if you doubt everything later" said Ibra.

Al was confused, but he just nodded in agreement with Abinya's words.

"Then let's go in, Boy," said Ibra holding Al's hand.

"Come, Abi," replied Al.

Ibra and Al enter the hotel and walk to the room that was booked by Wijaya. A few minutes later, Al and Ibra arrived at the room.

"Grandfather, Uncle Agam, Uncle Kevin, Dad" said Al to announce one by one the people he saw when entering the room. But Al's gaze was fixed on the figure of a middle-aged man wearing a male robe.

"Who is he, Abi?" tanya Al looked up at Ibra.

"We go in first, Boy," said Ibra, leading Al in and closing the door.

Now they all sit on the couch. Al sits in the middle between Adam and Ibra, while Wijaya sits on a single sofa. Kevin, Agam and Kiyai Rozak sit together in front of Ibra and Al.

"Boy," call Ibra soft.

"Yes, Abi" said Al.

"The one sitting in front of Al right now is Sofia's father" Ibra said cautiously.

Al immediately turned his gaze to Kiyai Rozak. Kiyai Rozak smiled when Al saw him. But Al just kept his face flat.

"What's the relationship with Al, Abi?" tanya Al looked at Ibra fixedly.

"I'm sorry for my mistake, son" said Kiyai Rozak.

Al turned his head and looked at Kiyai Rozak. "What mistake?" ask Al.

"I'm sorry for my mistake for hurting you. Forgive my selfishness for making you have to have a past that is not wearing" Kiyai Rozak said regretfully to Al.

"Al," it was Wijaya's turn to open her voice.

Al turned his gaze to Wijaya. "Yes, Grandpa" replied Al.

"Son, everything that happened to Al, Umi, Kina, Abi and Zahra, it all started from the mistake of Grandpa, Nak," said Wijaya.

Dada Al felt tight to hear the words of Wijaya. So this all comes back to his old wounds. His eyes reddened to see the sad face of his Grandfather.

"Abi" called Al lirih to Ibra.

Ibra who understood immediately brought Al into his arms.

"What's the matter, Abi?" ask Al to Ibra.

"Look, Al .. " said Wijaya told him everything about how Ibra could marry Sofia. Ibra divorces Sofia and Zahra who were born disabled and Sofi who is now Kevin's wife.

Al carefully heard the words of Wijaya.

"Because you have to know everything, Boy," replied Agam who had just been silent.

Al just nodded. After that he walked up to Kiyai Rozak.

"Mr," call Al.

Kiyai Rozak looked at Al as Al called out to him.

"Why be selfish for your own Son?" ask Al.

"Sorry, Al. I lost my mind when I saw my son's condition" said Kiyai Rozak.

"Al understood, you said all this so that Al could accept Zahra and forgive the Son, right?" ask Al.

"It's not like that, Boy," said Kevin. While Ibra was silent, she believed her son would do his best.

"Then what, Uncle?" ask Al.

"You're talking about saying all this so Al doesn't misunderstand, right?" ask Al again.

All of them who were there nodded.

"Before you explain, Al already knows everything," said Al who made them all gawk.

DEG

"How come, son?" ask Ibra.

"How come, Al?" ask Adam. Because he also just found out about everything. Before the arrival of Ibra and Al, Vijaya had already explained it to Adam.

"Abi, Dad, when Al went with Umi, Umi just said that Abi went to work and would catch up with us. Every day Al always awaits the arrival of Abi. Until finally Al was angry with Umi, Abi. Does Abi know? Even Al silenced Umi for one week just because of your actions. Umi Al was not wrong, but Al even silenced him. Until finally Al asked Umi to tell everything," said Al.

They're all quiet. Ibra could only look at her son. Whereas Kiyai Rozak could only utter his astonishment inwardly seeing the very mature Al.

"Do you all know, even Umi still ask Al to always forgive. Al did it, but Al hasn't been able to forget it" Al said.

"And for Father, sorry if Al has not forgotten the mistakes of the Father and the Son," said Al.

"I know I was very wrong, Al. I'm selfish, but I beg you not to make Zahra bear everything" said Kiyai Rozak lirih.

"Then what about my brother, sir? Even then he was still in my mother's stomach" Al told Kiyai Rozak.

"I'm sorry if Al doesn't speak politely, but for the sake of Umi and my brother, Al will do anything" Al told Kiyai Rozak.

"Uncle Kevin, Uncle Agam. Do you remember when we swam when Al was in Jakarta?" al asked Agam and Kevin.

Agam and Kevin nodded in response to Al's words. At that time they promised to fulfill whatever was requested by Al.

"Al wants to collect your appointments now" Al said.

"Please, Boy," said Kevin and Agam at the same time.

"Remove the wounds of Al and Al's sister" said Al looking at Kevin and Agam.

Kevin and Agam are silent. Ibra just kept looking at Al. Seeing how his son looks so mature goes through it all.

"Al knew Zahra was innocent, she was just like Al and Kina who were victims of everything."

"Father, Father is a Religious Leader. You understand Religion but why sacrifice the happiness of Umi Al for the happiness of the Father? And now you apologize. If Zahra wasn't flawed, would you still apologize?" al asked Kiyai Rozak.

"Can't answer right, sir," continued Al saw Kiyai Rozak who was only silenced with a sad gaze yes.

Then Al turned to look at Wijaya who lowered her head to hide her crying.

"Don't cry Grandpa, don't make Al into a bad grandson for making Grandpa shed tears" said Al staring at Wijaya.

Wijaya raised his head. "I'm sorry Grandpa, son," said Wijaya cupping her hands together in the chest.

Al averted his gaze from Wijaya, he was not strong enough to see Grandpa whom he loved so much becoming a whiny like this. Ibra could only shut up without speaking a word.

"Son, don't torture me with this deep regret. That karma came through Zahra, son. I beg you, at the end of my life, your apologies and sincerity greatly widen my path to reach the pleasure of God, Son," said Kiyai Rozak looking at Al.

Al's eyes had heated up to see a man whose age was not much different from his grandfather. Al looked at them all before opening his voice. Until last, Al stared at Ibra inside. She remembered Abinya's words earlier in the parking lot, so that she always believed her heart.

Ibra who understood his son's gaze only nodded letting Al convey what his heart was saying.

"Kiss my brothers' feet for all your mistakes."
