Bitter Reality

The beautiful night has now been replaced with a bright morning. This morning the sunshine greeted with warmth. The wind blew so quietly, around the road there were many dry leaves scattered due to the wind.

Just as Arabella is now watering plants in front of the house, every Arabella holiday will take care of the plants that grow in front of the house.

"Nak has been since you were busy watering plants" Shouted Mr. Haidar in the house, he immediately save a glass of water for Arabella on a round table.

Arabella who was bent over watering the white jasmine flowers immediately straightened her body and kept the flush tool down. As a submissive child Arabella immediately approached Mr. Haidar who was now sitting in a bamboo chair.

"Some of the plants have withered, so I flush and you are given fertilizer to be more fertile" said Arabella while taking a glass of water, before drinking Arabella to sit beside Mr. Haidar, then he immediately drank with three gulps.

"You're just like your mother. Your mother used to water plants too often" said Mr. Haidar straight ahead, laughing at past events that he missed.

Arabella was stunned and stared at the empty glass she was holding. As Arabella Alm mother never water the plants, even Arabella is always told to water the plants every morning before leaving school.

"Mom, Ara wants to leave school" the cute little Arabella is wearing a red white uniform with two hairpins with red ribbons adorning her hair.

At that time Arabella first grade school Elementary School, Arabella was ready with pink curtains on her back, but unfortunately from the small Arabella anxiety, the uniform always tangled Arabella. The uncaring Nisa simply indifferently paid no attention to Arabella.

"There go! Do not snack, if anyone asks why you do not join the snack you have to answer already full of food at home" Ketus Nisa, he was sitting relaxed in the house while playing the device.

Before Mr. Haidar went to work he would give pocket money to Arabella but unfortunately when Mr. Haidar had gone to work the pocket money given to Arabella was always seized by Nisa.

Arabella simply nodded obediently with a sweet smile fluffing on her cute sweet face. "Yes mom. Ara ga jajan!"

Her past memories are recollected by Arabella. If according to the father of the mother often water the plant why the mother is always reluctant to take care of the plant first? Arabella looked at her father's wrinkled face from the side.

His heart feels sad when remembering the past, maybe for some people childhood is the most beautiful time, where you can play anytime, snack a lot, and sleep as much. But unlike Arabella, he never experienced it, he would just sweep the yard and see other children playing with laughter.

"Mom likes plants?" Arabella choked up when she said that. His heart ached as he recalled the repressed memories of his past.

"Yes your mother really likes plants. In the past, the house was full of flowers. Mother and son alike" Mr. Haidar chuckled as he shook his head remembering his past which now lives in memories.

Hearing her father's words made Arabella silent. Why every father tells a story about a mother is always not the same as the reality of her mother. Nisa's mother, whom Arabella knew, wasn't as warm and fun as I told her.

"Ara I have to go to my friend's house. He is sick so I will see him first" said Mr. Haidar as he stood up from his seat followed by Arabella.

"alright yeah. Be careful on the road!"

"Yes son. Assalamu'alaikum"

"Wa'alaikumussalam"

Elsewhere in a large company Ana just came out in black and white clothes with her left hand holding a brown envelope containing a job application letter. The look on his face was tangled with a black hijab tilted to the left.

"Basic baldy! Just because of a trivial problem I was not accepted for work" Gerutu Ana. He walked along the sidewalk to the city park at the end of the road.

Ana has an appointment with someone if yesterday will meet at home but because there is a test at a company must change the meeting place, Ana invites the man to meet in a city park just after lunch.

But when he was busy walking Ana instead caught the figure of Bagas helping an old grandmother cross the road. Ana's steps came to a halt and then watched Bagas from a distance.

"The shitty guy helps people. It's unbelievable that he's possessed" Cibir Ana laughed.

Unknowingly Ana even stepped her feet closer to Bagas who is now sitting under a lush tree in a small planting in front of the cafe.

"You're a possessed abuser?" Arriving before Bagas, Ana immediately flocked the man with a silly question.

Bagas who was surprised by the presence of Ana then immediately stood up while rubbing his chest. "You know me" Pekik Bagas.

"Especially I am more surprised to see you help people" Sunggut Ana while folding her hands in the chest did not forget the brown envelope that she had held tightly.

"Working room?" Ask Bagas.

"Kok know?" Ana asked as she frowned.

"Tuh" Point Bagas at the brown envelope Ana holds. Sontak makes Ana see her brown envelope that she was holding earlier.

"Iya baru ngelamar kerja. Tapi malah ditolak" Keluh Ana raut wajahnya berubah sedih dengan amplop coklat yang ia pegang dibuang ketempat sampah.

"Kok rejected? Mending my rooming is guaranteed not to be rejected" Chirps Bagas casually.

But who would have thought, Ana even acted beyond Bagas' expectations. The woman threw herself with a tree.

"Ouch" Pekik Bagas as Ana throws him with a small dry tree branch.

"Dasar lewd" Shouted Ana annoyed, he immediately turned around and left Bagas. The mood's getting worse, why is he even approaching that shitty guy. Hah, Ana sighed madly. Today was very bad, hopefully his meeting with aunt Dinda helped his mood.

As she promised, Ana was now talking to someone, both of them sitting in long whitewashed garden chairs. The condition of the park is quite quiet makes both free to chat.

As you know Ana and Dinda are very familiar. The two discussed about Ana's activities, then how Ana went to college until now is looking for work. Dinda who has known Ana through Mr. Haidar is very happy to meet in person with the son of his best friend.

Dinda has also talked a lot about Haafizh. Ana, who has just learned that Dinda's son is a soldier, reminds Ana of a handsome soldier.

Amidst her longing for a handsome soldier, Dinda shows Haafizh's photo to Ana. When he saw Haafizh's photo, Ana was surprised not to play. It turned out that the man she was going to be betrothed to was a handsome army man Ana had admired all along.

Durian is collapsing. Ana was immediately happy not to play, even unconsciously she screamed hysterically because she was so happy. Dinda who saw Ana acting like that just smiled a little.

"It's amazing that I got this handsome soul mate. Yesampun sir army, soon we will be a match" said Ana jubilant.

"Do you know her Ana? Looks like you really like Haafizh" asked Dinda with a warm smile.

Proudly Ana nodded. "So this soldier's name is Haafizh, auntie?"

"Yes he Haafizh, the captain of the TNI army"

Don't ask me again how excited Ana is now. In her heart she screamed hysterically repeatedly. The sustenance of Ana Sholehah, Ana is like getting a windfall by getting a mate like Haafizh.

But Ana's happy smile did not last long when Dinda said, "If you want Haafizh then take her from your sister" The warm face of Dinda who seemed friendly is now gone replaced with an overabundance of resentment.

Trying to digest from every word Dinda just made Ana still do not understand what it means.

"I mean aunt Ara, what does sister Ara have to do with bang Haafizh?" Ana's heart was pounding fast, between inquisitive and inquisitive, just mixing in her mind. Why is he like he is not ready to hear about Arabella, his brother is a good man would not do such a thing.

"So maybe you didn't know anything all this time. Your father your mother, me and my husband we used to be best friends. Until we finally got married. When our happiness was going on, suddenly the woman came,"

"Women snatch men's husbands. Do you know who that woman is? She was maryam, that woman took your father from your mother. Long story short after a few months separated the house turns out your father was married to Maryam and most surprising again if the woman who married betelih by your father was pregnant"

"Your mother's life is very bad especially she has not been pregnant. Until the day that Maryam gives birth, your father and mother's relationship begins to improve as Maryam dies. Bad luck befell the baby girl, until finally your father persuaded Nisa to take care of her child"

"By being forced to finally Nisa want to. But the pain in his heart still imprints where he has to go through difficult times alone without a husband. The seductress was the mother of Arabella, who had now taken the soul mate of her own sister secretly"

"Ana your father lied to you, so did Arabella. The woman sneakyly took Haafizh from you. If you want to know the extent of their relationship, they'll get married soon"

Duarr...

Like being struck by lightning in a hole. Ana instantly fell silent with a stiff body, her heart that had just gained happiness now disappeared instantly.

"Sir Ara" Ana said softly, her tears spilled instantly with disappointment in her heart. Why would he know this harsh reality now?
