The situation in the room was heating up again. The smell of hostility was evident between the two. Galang who had lost faith with his mother and Ningsih who did not want to lose his son, more precisely the luxury he had obtained through Galang.
"This is your home, Galang and in this house you have your own room. Mama won't bother you, "persuade Ningsih.
"I'm an adult, Ma. I can already determine what I should do. My mother is my mother, the woman who gave birth to me. But now we are the same. We as adults have the right to make our own decisions. It's time I was tough on mom and now let me choose to stay alone."
"But if you leave this house, who is Mama?" The old woman began to cry.
"Here is Mira and her son. There are helpers, gardeners and housekeepers. So Mama doesn't live alone." Galang. The man continued his steps to his room.
"But Mama only wants you to accompany Mama in the old days of this Mama, son," said Ningsih follow the steps of his favorite son.
"Aren't we separated often? Didn't I live in an apartment more often, before I married Nadine?" Galang frowned, after which clucked bitterly with the drama being played by his mother.
"No, Son. For now let Mama who accompanies you through all the trials in your life," said Ningsih. He really hoped that Galang would stay in this house so that he could easily control his son.
Sweet mother's voice actually makes Galang feel more nauseous. He realized, if he still stayed here, his mother would definitely continue to cook him with things that would actually make him more devastated.
We don't want that to happen. He had to start firmly from now on, even though it was to his own mother. He loves his mother, but that does not mean that all his words must be obeyed. Obedience to parents does not have to agree on everything they want, especially if it is related to their own personal affairs. If a boy becomes the absolute property of his mother, why does he become an adult? Why did he marry and live in a household?
Error grabbing the car keys, then put his wallet and mobile phone into his pocket and pants.
The man lowered his body, kept his head down, until he touched the mother's feet.
"Without reducing my love and devotion to Mama, let me decide my own life, Ma. Please never interfere in my personal matters again. The matter of Laras and Nadine, let me solve it myself. Never interfere, let alone involve Uncle Rusdi!"
"Mama just wants what's best for you, Galang. He pulled his son's body back up. Now their positions are aligned.
"The best according to Mama and the best according to Galang are not necessarily the same. We have different points of view about what we think is best. Yes, I'm leaving. Take care of yourself, Mama."
Despite his heart breaking, Galang kissed his mother's hand. The steps are steady out of the room, towards the living room and ending at the terrace of the house. The old woman tried to catch up, but her pace lost quickly. He could only stare at his son who took his car out of the yard and eventually disappeared behind the gate.
