"Ja-don't cry, Mom. Jo-joey doesn't like to see these tears, any more when Joey's not nan--"
"Please, don't talk like that, honey. Mamih please, stop!"
Rani hugs Joey tighter as if she does not want to release Joey, even though she has to fight the angel of death still Rani will defend the child in order to live much longer than her own life.
This is where a mother's conscience is chipped. No matter how busy Rani is, how selfish they are to the child still their hearts cannot be lied to. If Joey is the only anal they love so much, Joey is the only gift God has given them to perfect their little family.
Ragil, who knows how Rani feels, can only hug them and cry together in a few minutes. Then, one by one releasing a hug makes Joey in the middle of them while staring at both parents alternately.
Joey still can't believe that all this is real, several times he tried to close his eyes and then reopen while slapping both cheeks to a hard pinch of the hand. Still, the result is the same. Everything that happens is 100 percent real, if Rani and Ragil have proven their affection for their beloved child.
"We beg you, dear. Don't say that again yes, Papih and Mamih will continue to fight no matter how well Joey must be healthy. If necessary Joey's life is much longer than Papih and Mamih. The point now is that Joey must think positively that someday Joey will recover and no longer depend on drugs. Joey knows what Papih's saying?"
Joey nodded his head making Ragil immediately kiss his forehead at a glance, then occasionally wipe away the tears of the child. Only recently did they see a mere son who had never shed a tear even once injured and now they could see it in Joey's eyes.
"W-how could that decision be taken? As Joey knows, Ma-mamih is more fond of her work than family. Why do you want to give up? W-Is all this because of Pa-papih's coercion?"
Joey's question instantly made his parents turn to each other, then shake their heads simultaneously. Then Ragil told how the decision could be taken so as not to make Joey misunderstand both parents.
"A few hours ago we ...."
Ragil recalls all the events in Rani's shared room, where they were discussing the options to be taken for Joey's good.
After Rani and Ragil clean up after work, approximately at 7 Ragil invites the wife to talk again to determine the last choice that will be given to Joey.
Several times they talked about it, but found no better answer. There is only one answer when they are in discussion that is, sleepy or tired. All those words always come out of Rani's lips when Ragil tries to get her to speak from heart to heart. Even if the victim is Ragil, all consequences are ready to be received well.
Ragil's company remains the way, only the one who handles not him but the confidant. However, behind Ragil's sincerity there is an unexpected miracle.
If you say it is difficult, it must be very difficult. The two were met when there was a meeting of the Company, so they already know each other if they are happy to work. Not because of money, but self-esteem that makes them have to live independently without having to ask or be given.
"I know, Honey. This is the toughest decision in our household, what else several times we have fought just because of this choice. However, when the choice is given by the child himself it feels really, really heavy. We've fought from ground zero to reach the pinnacle of our career, but there's only one more step we have to stop because of that choice."
"I see, you are the hardest person to give up that job. Just how else, we have no choice, honey. There's only one option, you or I, that stops working so Joey doesn't feel like we're not parents who don't expect his son to be around."
"The first time we know it is because of work, until finally we are close also thanks to work. Gradually, we establish relationships and promise to build a good household. In fact? We failed, honey. We failed! If Joey has given that choice, it means that all we have been doing is wrong. Joey not only needs money for medical expenses, but also affection. For a long time we have never taken the time to just take a vacation, eat outside, play and laugh together and there are many more that we can not do!"
"You don't feel like, ever since you've been in a higher position with a very large salary and my company has started to show progress, we've never had time for Joey. Worse we never accompany Joey check up every month, only Sus Rini who always accompany Joey wherever Joey goes. Fortunately, Joey did not grow up to be a wayward child. If that happens a sign that we are not worthy of being parents. We have failed so much!"
"Maybe with the choice that Joey gives, without us realizing it as a rebuke from God. Joey also said that he wanted to live independently in a country of people, we have been confused like this. What if we focus too much on work, then suddenly we get the news of our own children, will we not regret? All of this is just as God foreshadows that He will slowly keep us away from Joey, until finally we forget that someday He will take Joey for good because we are negligent as parents in looking after our own children!"
"It's time we had to change, honey. Hard or not it's an important business later we keep fighting for this small family to stay happy. There has been a lot of time that we waste just to pursue a career until we forget there is a child who really needs affection. Even though Joey looks healthy, he still has a very dangerous disease. So, we can't be too selfish, honey. I don't want to, someday we're really sorry!"
"For that ... I-i ... I'll decide, let me at home take care of all Joey's needs, accompany Joey play, school, study even check up. You just focus on your career, I support for your happiness in order to pursue your dream of becoming a career woman. Or if you want, you take care of my company. You replaced my position there rather than me having to give it all away to others I'd rather leave it to you because I trust my own wife more. So, hows? Are you ready to replace me?"
Rani could not say anything when she heard all the words of her husband that were so touching. Really, Rani was surprised to see the sacrifice of Ragil so glorious. He was willing to lose the Company in order to save Joey from leaving them.
