Father to My Daughter

Father to My Daughter
duka Andi's



In her solitude, Jennie's eyes were still bright. Don't know why she had to cry, because of Excel's expression of feelings, or maybe because of the kiss Excel gave her.


He rubbed his lips violently.


"I hate them, why is it so easy to touch a woman in the name of love?" Sobbed. He sighed, then wiped his tears. "Jennie, you're not the old Jennie. You can't just accept love from anyone, not Andi or Mr Excel." Trying to strengthen yourself. Then walked a little limped to the toilet to wash her face, and justify her makeup, because she had to go back to work.


Meanwhile outside, Andi had waited long enough outside the hotel building, waiting for Jennie to come out because she was not allowed to enter to find Jennie's figure in the building, by the security there, because of the commotion earlier.


With a cell phone in his hand Andi kept trying to call Jennie's number, but there was no answer at all.


Andi began to grow furious, wanting to feel like he was slaughtering all the security in front of him, and immediately pulled Jennie out of there and took her away, but he realized it would actually make Jennie even more hate him.


"Uhukkk...".uhukk..." Andi coughing. "Damn why the last few months I keep coughing anyway. Uhukkk..." Patting his chest.


"Hey sir, you should just go home there—," said one of the security.


Andi smiled cynically. "You think I'm going? Before my girl gets out of this hotel? Hmh! It won't." Andi stayed on, while some of the guards on guard could only remain silent.


At the same time, Andi's phone rang. Andi grabbed it, and found a call from the mother, as usual he just ignored it, and put the phone back in his pocket, but again ringing notification chat message reads.


So Andi had to take it out again and read the contents of the short message, whether what happened because at that time Andi's eyeball immediately widened, so that he immediately ran away from the place to his parents' house.


***


In the big house, Andi's car had just arrived, he saw many people gathered there.


Seen some wreaths with mourning are lined around the courtyard of the big house that he had not been to for a long time.


Andi walked past the people who were looking at him, the people who were dressed in black, and some of them were crying.


But it seems that Andi's gaze is more focused on a woman who is sitting staring nanar towards the body of a man who he has been calling Father.


Slightly dragged Andi's feet toward the woman. He stood behind her and lowered his body to hug her from behind.


Only then did the woman shed her tears, rubbed the child's head, with her eyes still fixed on the body in front of her, from there the more water came out of the corner of her eyes. "You're coming..?" Said the mother with her raucous voice.


"You came my son? You really came after your father's gone." Sobbed.


Andi just quietly buried his face on the shoulder of the mother. Also crying because what he said really became real, before he ever told his mother? If He will return if Iskandar Lutfi is gone. But the words were thrown only limited to his words which at that time was harboring hatred in his heart.


Until the funeral procession went well, and now Andi is standing in front of a large photo frame, where the portraits are of himself, his mother and father.


"The photo is still on display. Where you were a teenager. No new face, you. That's what makes me miss." Mona's mother was already standing next to Andi with her hands folded in front of her chest.


Andi was silent, he was still observing the fierce face of the father, who was very gallant and mighty.


"Andi?" Call Mona's mom. Andi also looked. The little eyes looked at the mother. "Did you live well all this time?" Mona's mother asked, touching the child's face. At that time, he grabbed the mother's hand and then kissed her.


"I live well. As I see this." Andi replied with a smile, "I wonder, what really happened to Dad?" Ask Andi.


"Your father. Back stumbled the case of Mega corruption, but this time more severe, he can no longer escape like before. Last night, the KPK came to pick up your father, but he had permission to go to the restroom, after which there was a gunshot in the bathroom, and at that time your father was found dead with a gunshot wound to his head. He killed Andi. Because he cannot bear the burden of having to languish in a cell and all our assets seized by the state, even this house. Tomorrow I can't put her anymore." Sobbing, you can see Andi's hand raised touching her mother's shoulder.


"May Andi hug you again mother?" Ask Andi. Mona's mother nodded, so the mother was embraced by her son.


"Don't be sad Mom, there's still me, I'll take care of you, and take your place." Andi said in the arms of Mona's mother, Mona's mother's hands rubbed her son's burly back.


"Please forgive your mother and father Andi. Please forgive us for not being able to give you love since you were little, so you must hate us. Even until your father's gone." Mona's mother kept crying. Andi let go of his embrace for a moment, he then wiped the tears of the mother.


"Forget it, forget all the past, ma'am. Andi has changed Andi's life to be better, we will live life together. I promised you, Mom. I'm not leaving you again."


"Promise me, son, you won't leave me."


"Yes, Uhukkk.." Andi coughed.


Mona's mother let go of her embrace. "You why? Are you sick?" Ask Mona's mom. Andi was just smiling.


"No, just a regular cough ma'am. Just relax." Andi said, Mona's mother breathed a sigh of relief, then rubbed the child's arm.


"It's my son's greatness. I've really missed you."


"I am also mom. We'd better take a break. Because tomorrow I'm gonna take mom to my house." Andi. Mona's mother nodded.


That night they rested in their rooms. While Andi had reminisced with his room in the past, everything was still intact unchanged, and what made Andi most happy. The room was clean even though he no longer used it. Andi grabbed his favorite acoustic guitar first and played it for a while, until he coughed again, and made him stop his activities and lay down his body to rest.
