Dusk And Suffering

83. Wrong Continues

"So talk about you Coral! Is this what you have gained during your years of education? Your brother didn't do anything wrong to you, didn't even meet. Why do you always insult her? What's wrong with you?" Akmal's reddened face and eyes tried hard to contain the anger.

"For him I used to get insults here and there, from friends, from enemies, from everyone who met me, they looked at me with one eye. Imagine how many mouths people have cursed me. Having a father who has no morals, just a mistake from Papa's past, I also get the impact. What is my fault, why do I have to accept the impact of your mistake. And one more thing, your treatment of us has never changed. The quarrels that Papa created with Mama, the same attention of Papa I do not have at all lest poured out by other Papa children. Papa thought about his whereabouts, his circumstances, didn't he? To the point that Papa forgot that I was here. So it's only natural that I hate him, that your concern with your family is completely non-existent because of the goddamn kid and the woman that Papa hamili is."

Akmal is getting angry. He felt the Coral was already very insolent, his hands flew back into the air. Haven't had time for the palm to touch roughly the cheek Coral.

"You gonna hit me again? HIT Pa! SPANK IT!"

Akmal quickly lowered his hands back, his chest rumbling, his breathing starting to feel tight holding back anger.

Akmal was confused, he was in the wrong position. He was firm on the Coral, but the Coral misunderstood its assertiveness. He let the Coral, the boy's future will be threatened.

"Why shut up, Pa?" The coral that had been screaming, was now speaking weakly, its eyes were already filled with tears.

"Papa realize, the hell I've been in contact with Papa all this time? Papa see where I am? Did Papa think all this time I didn't understand anything? I saw everything, Pa. I realized I was plunging into that black world I realized, Pa. I realize I was wrong. I'm doing this so I can get Papa's attention, I want to see if it doesn't matter to me. How to care Papa to me. I just want Papa to be where I am, Pa. Papa never survived my dozen years of school coming to school I took a rapot? Have I ever had PR? Have you ever wondered how I was doing at school? Did you ever talk to me, Pa? Have you ever invited me to play? Take me for a walk? Papa realized how not all this time Papa also made mistakes with me, same Mama?! Don't just focus on your past. Papa is busy thinking about Papa's past mistakes, but he unknowingly carves them out in the future."

The coral paused for a moment to wipe away her shed tears. His breath had also frowned because it had since evaporated emotions.

"Of course, I shouldn't hate Papa's other children. He was not wrong in this, nor was he ever wrong with me. But he took my Papa from me."

"Now, he never took Papa from anyone. Yeah okay, Papa realized Papa was wrong. What should Papa do so that you can become a better coral? Papa doesn't want you to be like this, Papa cares about your future." Akmal's tone softened because he realized the mistake he made was indeed so fatal. He knew he hurt a lot of people.

"Papa can care about my future by teaching me to be a leader, starting from my age which is still said I can not do that. But, don't restrain me from forgetting, don't I do this can't, I do it can't. I'd like to get together, too, Pa."

"By coming to the club?"

Clara who had been silent since then finally raised her voice.

"You want your son to be broken by coming to the club often?"

"I'm not at the club, I'm just hanging out together. I'll be home before midnight. I'm satisfied, right?"

The reef ended the storm and quickly left. Clara and Akmal are left.

"Why are you, anyway? Just this morning, we agreed not to say about the Dusk you know the same Karang Dusk. Coral, still can not accept the presence of your other children. You also have to understand, you can not continue to hold the Coral tightly. Once you also have to loosen the grip so that the Coral does not constantly rebel and continue to be a double child."

"If it is not explained, he will continue to misunderstand. He will continue to think that I attach greater importance to Dusk than to him. Though from the beginning I met Dusk also I sacrificed him again. You know the story from beginning to end. You spend time at dusk. You will know how his life, let you the same Karang also do not think strange. Didn't think that I was too focused on Dusk until I forgot about you guys. If indeed I only attach importance to Dusk I have left you. My job is not in my company either. He prefers to work in the company of others rather than in the company of his own father. What do you think he is because of? Because he values us too, he does not want you to experience social jealousy. He also did not want to be lazy, he did not want to eat my money for long, so he worked. Try to follow my advice, for a day with him. One day hearing the story, I'm sure your thoughts will change, Cla."

No longer willing to extend the actual affairs that do not need to be discussed for long, Akmal chose to cover leaving from the presence of Clara. Akmal is tired of fighting with Karang and Clara about Dusk, even though he as a father of two children just wants to be fair to both.

"Monday, Dusk, Dusk. Just that one name always makes my family noisier all the time. What is so special about that woman that I have to spend a day with her? All right, I'll try and prove to Akmal that he's wrong. I won't change my mind about that woman."

And the proof was done by Clara to the next day. At nine o'clock in the morning on Saturday, she was already mirrored in front of her dresser. Piling the crean on his face with powder, putting a little red lipstick on his lips, he let his shoulder-length hair unravel against the wind that would blow it away. Despite her age of four heads, Clara is one of the women who cares about looks. That's why he looks still beautiful even though he already has a child growing up.

"Where are you going?" Akmal asked.

"You asked me to be with Dusk for a day. And now that I'm going to do it, you're still asking" Clara replied snatching her bag and walking out of the room.
