He'S JUST My Son

Thirty-four Mela, Forgive Me

At the Mental Hospital, Ms. Sonia was seen crying with a nurse accompanying her. The woman who had lost her wife, now looks very sad.

His face was thin, with blackened eye circles and partially bleached hair. There is no beauty charm left on her face, which used to always be polished make-up and expensive treatments at beauty clinics.

The middle-aged woman whimpered while mentioning a name that He kept repeating, her groans sounding very heart-wrenching to anyone who heard.

"Melati .. sorry, I'm sorry, Melati."

Arjuna who was just about to enter the treatment room the mother was fixated in her place, hearing the mother moaning apologized to the girl who had the heart to cheat on Arjuna.

'Mama's sorry about Melati? What the hell is it? Is Mama hiding something?' inner Arjuna.

"Mas Arjuna, would you please come in?" The nurse turned and saw Arjuna still standing in the doorway, allowing the son of his patient to enter.

With a gontai step, Arjuna went into the care room of the mother. Arjuna then sat in the chair that the nurse had occupied.

"I live first yes, Mas Arjuna," said the nurse, bringing an empty dining area. Apparently the nurse had been feeding Sonia's mom.

Arjuna then clasped her hand, "Mama how are you?" ask Arjuna.

Ms. Sonia looked up, closely watching Arjuna's face. "Who are you?" ask Sonia.

Yes, Sonia's mother had forgotten the memory of everyone except for the one name she kept calling. Melati, the girl He once expelled and she slandered until Melati did not get the right of recognition for her pregnancy with Arjuna.

"This is Juna, Ma. Mama's youngest child," explained Arjuna patiently.

Ms. Sonia nodded her head and then smiled, "yes, you're mama's son" she said and then cried.

But a second later, Sonia's mom would forget to go back with what the person who asked her to speak had explained.

"Who was that, your name?" ask Sonia to come back.

Arjuna let out a long sigh, "Juna, Ma. Arjuna, my mother's favorite," Arjuna replied with tears.

"June-juna-Juna .... " Mrs Sonia was heard repeating her own son's name.

"Delati, do you know Melati?" ask Sonia's mom then with a hopeful look.

Because all this time if he asked everyone who approached him, no one knew who Melati was.

Arjuna nodded, "yes, Ma. Juna knows Melati. What's up with Melati, Ma?" cecar Arjuna looked impatient.

"Do you really know him?" ask Sonia bu with sparkling netra, like the gaze of a sane person because all this time the netra bu Sonia looks empty and there is no sign of life.

"Yes, Ma, Juna knows Melati. Tell me, Ma, what's wrong with Melati?" chase Arjuna back.

Ms. Sonia cried so much that she confused Arjuna. "Ma, why are you crying? What's up with Melati, Ma? Did he hurt Mama?" Arjuna was panicking.

Ms. Sonia shook her head, "mama who has hurt Melati, mama who kicked her out and her mother." Sonia's cry broke even more.

Arjuna frowned deeply, digesting the words of the mother. 'The mother who made Melati and Nilam leave the city? For what?' ask Arjuna in my heart.

Suddenly Sonia's mom laughed out loud, "stupid, stupid you're Sonia! You have grandchildren, but you're wasted!" maki bu Sonia to herself.

Arjuna doesn't understand, 'grandson? Wastefully? What does mama mean?' arjuna asked.

After a while, Sonia's mother calmed down. Arjuna asked back to the mother carefully, "Ma, please say it clearly. What do you mean by a granddaughter that you wasted?"

Bu Sonia stared in the netra of Arjuna, "he's Arjuna's son. Jasmine was pregnant with Arjuna's child" said Sonia's mother clearly, a second later the middle-aged woman who looked very old returned to tears.

"What's up, Mas Arjuna?" ask the nurse who was feeding Sonia's mom.

Arjuna shook his head weakly, "I don't know, Sus. Mama delivered a message and after that mama cried," Arjuna replied honestly.

"Good, Mas. Mas Arjuna's better get out first, we'll take care of Sonia's mom" the nurse said.

Arjuna immediately came out of the care room of the mother, the youngest son of Sonia's mother, then decided to go home to the simple house he occupied.

Arjuna went home on a butut motorcycle, the only property not seized by the government, which he then used as a means of transportation to ease into the place where He worked.

In the middle of the road, the words of the mother just kept ringing and disturbing Arjuna's mind. 'I'd better go to Ricko's house. Who knows if Ricko can give me an explanation, about what mom said.' Arjuna monologues in the heart.

#####

Arjuna parked his butut motorbike in the yard of a fairly large house, right at the same time, a thug-looking man was seen coming out of the house.

"Good day, Om," said Arjuna.

"Hey Juna, noon," the man replied with an forced smile.

"Sorry, Mr. Ricko. Can we talk for a second?" please Arjuna.

"Yes, please sit down" replied the man who turned out to be Ricko, a confidant of Sonia's mother, pointing to an empty bench on the porch of her house.

Arjuna follows Ricko, who is already seated first.

"How's Sonia's mom doing?" ask Ricko.

Arjuna let out a long sigh, "still the same, Om. Just now Juna from there and mama back hysterical" explained Arjuna.

Ricko rubbed his face rough, although the tattooed man seemed indifferent but still there was a sense of pity enveloping Ricko's heart. After all, Sonia was once a hero to the Ricko family.

Ms. Sonia gives more welfare to Ricko and her family, although Ricko has to do whatever Sonia tells her to do, including work that harms others and even causes others harm.

"What's up, you're looking for Om?" ask Ricko then.

Arjuna then told him what he heard from his mother's mouth, "what does Om Ricko, know about this?" ask Arjuna expectantly.

Ricko let out a long sigh, a second later nodding his head. "Yes, Juna. The girl was carrying your child," Ricko replied softly but to Arjuna, Ricko's thunderous speech struck his consciousness that had been covered in unwarranted jealousy.

Looking at the friendly photos of a girl similar to Melati, makes young Arjuna blood boil and jealous blind. He who keeps loyalty in the place of education, feels betrayed and hurt.

Arjuna's common sense disappeared because of a burning grudge in the heart, until Melati's request that Arjuna do a DNA test to prove that the seed contained by Melati is the seed of Arjuna, He ignored even He laughed'nya.

Ricko's next description could not be heard Arjuna well, because the young man was swept away in deep regret. Arjuna was very surprised to hear the fact, that it turns out Melati is a victim of the selfishness of the mother.

"Om, is that really what Om Ricko said?" asked Arjuna to reassure his hearing.

Ricko nodded surely, "Melati and her mother settled in Bali." Ricko then mentioned Melati's address.

"Good, Om. Thank you," said Arjuna who immediately ran towards his motorbike.

Arjuna drives his bike bututututnya with maximum speed, he wants to be able to get home soon and then prepare to follow Melati to Bali.

"Mela, I'm sorry," muttered Arjuna along the way. A clear thread that fell from the corner of the net Arjuna, wet his face which now looks haggard.
