ENDRO, THE BODYGUARD

ENDRO, THE BODYGUARD
IBU



Almost half an hour of Endro talking at Mr. Arif's house. He finally decided to leave from there.


When he got up, his eyes unintentionally stared at a photo hanging on the wall of the living room. At first Endro was acting Acute, but his head reflexively turned back towards the photo.


His breath roared great. His eyes were round for a moment. "Mom-Mom..." Endro lirih. His steps slowly trembled closer to the wall where the photo was displayed. He wanted to look closer to be clearly visible to his eyes. "I-mibuuu..." Say it again with your eyes starting to turn red.


Mr. Arif and his son-in-law were shocked like they were struck by lightning. They stared questionnaires at Endro.


"Mother? What do you mean, son Endro?" Asked Mr. Arif was no longer able to withstand the fiery emotional turmoil from within him.


Endro's right hand was raised slowly. His index point leads to a photo he calls Mother. A photo of a beautiful girl smiling like a rose blooming there.


"He's... Diaa... She's my mother, Mr. Arif..." Endro's voice sounded bad. Her blaring voice revealed Who the woman in the photo was to her.


"My sister Lidya is your mother, son Endro?" Asked Mr. Arif as if he did not believe in hearing Endro's confession.


"His father?" Endro seemed to think for a moment. "Really... My late father said my mother's name was Lidya, sir." Endro's words justify. Her tears just flowed in that moment.


"Your late father?" Again Mr. Arif with his son and daughter-in-law was stunned by Endro's speech.


Endro quickly reached into his wallet and took out a small photo from inside. "This beautiful woman is my mother, sir. His name is Lidya. A woman who was loved by my father." Endro said while offering a photo of his mother that was stored long in his wallet.


"means... You're Kamil's son?" Ask Mr. Arif was more astonished when he saw a picture of his sister coming out of Endro's wallet.


"Sir Arif knows my father?" Tanya Endro began to realize himself. "Owhh... I remember, it must have been Mr. Arif who had thrown my father into prison at that time, right? Mr. Arif who had kept me separated from my father for four years." Accuse Endro of bitter. His heart raged considering his father's story.


"N-nob Endro... Want Endro my younger brother's son, Lidya? Means my son Endro..." Ask Mr. Arif again as if not believe. He tried to get close to Endro and reach for Endro's arm. It was as if he wanted to explain something to Endro. But Endro instead gently brushed her aside, she retreated and shook her head in disappointment.


"I'm sorry, Mr. Arif... I don't know any of my mother's family. Since I knew that my mother could never come back, I believed there was only my Father in my life." Firmly Endro shed tears.


The son and son-in-law of Mr. Arif joined in tears watching the drama that was happening in front of them at that time.


"Son Endrooo..." Call Mr. Arif to try to prevent Endro's move.


"Sir Arif was so willing to put my father in prison. It made me feel like an orphan for four years. Luckily there were grandmothers who took care of me at that time. If not..." Endro's words hang. He himself did not know what answer he had to his own question.


"I'm sorry, Son Endro. I know, I was wrong. But I really don't know if my sister, your mother had a child at the time. He hasn't even told me since he married your father, son..." Said Mr. Arif. There was regret then on his old face.


Endro did not pay attention to Mr. Arif's words anymore. He still stepped out of the house in disappointment that was clearly on his face.


Seeing the sadness that emanated on the face of Mr. Arif, his son also gave his son to his wife. He tried to chase Endro to the gate of his house.


"Master... Mr. Endro... Please stop for a second... Listen to my explanation, sir." Call the man to try to stop the speed of the car that was driving Endro.


With a force, Endro stopped his car. He pulled out a little bit of his head and asked the man to stay away so as not to get hurt.


"I don't care about what will happen to me, sir. I just want you to hear an explanation from me first." Pint the man with a loud breath.


"You know what, huh?" Endro asked without intending to get out of his car.


Endro. He thought for a moment and in the end decided to open his car and get out of it.


"Thank you, Sir..." Said the man low.


"I'm Endro... Call it that way." Endro orders cold.


"Eh? M okay, Endro..." The man said nervously. "I'm Hanan..." He introduced himself to Endro.


Endro just nodded slowly.


"Tell me..." Endro's orders sound cranky.


"Aunti Lidya and Uncle Kamil's wedding was not approved by Grandma, but grandfather approved of them.


They got married without a fancy party. After their wedding, Uncle Kamil brings Aunt Lidya to his town. Things that make Grandma even more disliked to Uncle.


One day, my grandfather died. And my dad called Auntie. And that's when the grief got bigger on this family. Grandpa's death, and news of Aunt Lidya's accident.


How could Grandma feel not being hit by it. The only way was to vent his anger at Uncle Kamil.


My father really doesn't. But for grandma's sake, she pretended to be angry with Uncle and threw him into prison.


Papa thought, without Grandma's knowledge, papa freed uncle in a time that he should not have been released.


Uncle was released within a year in custody, Endro..."


"No... You're lying." Deny Endro. "The truth is my father was imprisoned for four years."


"You can check for yourself if you don't believe it. Uncle himself who did not want to be released. Because uncle was so devastated and felt guilty for letting aunt go alone at that time.


Uncle's like a stressed person who's always waiting for aunt's arrival to come pick her up into a cell." Hanan's words convinced Endro.


Endro. His tears were getting louder soaking down his cheeks to the clothes he was wearing.


"I asked Grandma who was in the photo. And he told me everything. Grandma wasn't actually angry. Grandmother only grieved to feel so deep sorrow as a wife and mother who were left simultaneously by her husband and daughter at that time." Hanan began to sob.


Endro just seemed confused between believing it or not. He took a few steps back. "I need time for this." He said and immediately got back in his car. Endro left the grounds of the house without making any statements.
