POV Mama Karni
‘’Bu? Where are you going?’’ The sound of a call from aunt Ningrum made me turn my head and stop the steps instantly.
‘’I need a moment, Bi.’’
‘’But I haven't had breakfast?’’ He rushed up to me who was standing on the balcony.
‘’I think breakfast outside, Bi. Yes, I left first. I'm late, Bi,’’ I said while looking at the circular object on my wrist.
‘’Iya, Mom. But I have to be careful yes and do not forget breakfast,’’ advice later that I said with a nod and again continue my steps.
Looks like my personal driver is sitting while chatting with security who has just worked two weeks is named Iwan. Instantly their eyes were on me.
‘’Eh, Mother. Morning, Mom!’’ answer it politely.
‘’Morning too,’’ reply.
‘’Bapak can take me to the police station?’’ I turned to look at my private driver, Mr. Dani.
‘’Certainly can, Bu.’’ He rushed to the garage, I followed him.
‘’Please, Bu!’’ As usual, he opened the car door for me.
I nodded and hurried up the car by saying basmallah first. The breeze passed through the gap of the car glass to blow through my hood, also making drowsiness present instantly. However, because my mind was so scared that my eyes did not become closed. One side I remember my only child who never came home, since he picked up his clothes and dropped three talaqs on Monik.
I don't think about what my son has done. Maybe he took away Monik's chastity and now he just left that woman. I still remember when Monik called me, out of nowhere he got my phone number. She said she was pregnant with Andre's child. I can't believe it, I don't think she's been on the wrong side or terrorizing me. Until finally he ventured to my house and he confessed that he was pregnant with the seeds of Andre, my biological son.
I still can't believe it. Because before my only child was not so behavior, I know my son very well. Until finally, the woman gave me evidence. His picture that was making out with my son just way. It made me aghast in shock, my head suddenly dizzy, and to make my sight dark instantly.
After I realized it, I felt sorry for that woman. Until I decided to look for him in the rain accompanied by my personal driver. In every way I spread my eyes to find the whereabouts of the woman who claimed to contain Andre's flesh and blood. But, I didn't find any. But I didn't give up. I continued to look for the whereabouts of the woman, I'm sure she's not far from here yet. Instantly I saw that there were some people holding onto someone's body. I rushed down by my driver.
It turned out to be true, it was the woman who had ventured to come to my house. Without thinking again I told my driver to take the woman. Until I finally decided to take care and told him to stay in my house, but my husband hated Monik instead. Every day, my husband treats her badly. But I tried to defend him.
Makes me fight every day, let alone mas Ardi the type of man who can not be denied his words. He did not approve of Andre's relationship with Monik. My husband even betrothed Andre to his best friend's son. To my annoyance, his childhood had impregnated Monik and he did not agree that Andre should be responsible for what he had done.
He should have approved of his son's relationship with the woman he was pregnant with, this he did not approve of. I don't think through his mind. But I stick with my stance and intention. I'll keep marrying Andre to Monik without his papa's blessing. A few days before their wedding, my husband was caught cheating on me and it turned out that he had been playing with fire behind my back.
Making me throw him out of the house, he dropped my talc on me, so he never set foot here again. After days there was no news. I accidentally found out on the television news. He was arrested by the police for not paying a debt of 2 billion. I don't know what that money is for. What's for that affair? But somehow I feel pity and my tears fall to see the news that is airing. Ah, did I not have been betrayed.
I don't deserve to cry for a traitor like him. Yes, it was all God's reward for him. Every action in the world will be avenged by Allah, sometimes directly in the world and in the hereafter can still be recompensed. Likewise with Andre's actions he did to Monik. Sooner or later God will answer.
‘’That's so bad for you, Monik. Ma’afkan Mama, Mama can not help you to stay with Andre. The one that is actually making you more hurt, the better you part with it. Instead of eating liver every day, you deserve to be happy, son,’’ my monologue in heart.
On the other hand, I remembered the child just my way out of nowhere. He hadn't been home for a long time and there was no news of him. I tried calling his number, but it wasn't active. I tried to ask his friends, but they didn't even know Andre's whereabouts. Where exactly is my son?
‘’Ndre, where are you? Why do you even think gini. Ninggalin Mama alone,’’ muttered me in heart.
And Andre is my only hope. I only have Andre. But it turns out he was like this behavior and disappeared indistinctly. I was actually very upset and angry at my son for all his behavior.
‘’And if about the company, Thank you I started to be relieved.’’
Thanks to do’a and my efforts finally the company fell into my hands again, certainly can not be separated from the help of my personal assistant and lawyer.
‘’Bu? We're going to the Southern police station right?’’
‘’Ah, Yes, Sir.’’
Not long after, my car has entered the police station grounds. As usual, my driver opened the door.
‘’Bapak wait outside only yes. Later I call,’’ I tell my personal driver it.
‘’Iya, Mom. Fine.’’
Without thinking any more, I hurried to step into the police station.
‘’Good morning, Mom. Can we help you?’’ ask the police kindly.
‘’Again, Sir. I want to meet Mas Ardi.’’
‘’Mari, Mom. Go to the waiting room first. I first call Mr. Ardinya.’’ I nodded and smiled kindly.
I waited a long time, but I did not see the man's nose. Does he not want to see me anymore? Yeah, he's been in jail for two weeks. I just met him this time. More precisely just to remind me of the mistake that man had done to me. Ah, there he is. But, wait it seems like he looks thin, his lips are deathly pale, and his eyes are soft.
He seemed to be poking out in front of me.
‘’Ma, Mama finally wants to meet me here.’’
‘’Ma, please help Papa to get out of this place. Don't you feel sorry for Papa? Over a week Papa is sick.’’ The man dressed in the prisoner's shirt clasped my fingers with a face that was clear.
‘’Papa promise will change. Da—and we can start a new life again right, Ma?’’ it made me give my lips, smile cynically. I put his hands away violently.
‘’Ma’af! I can't. This is the best place for you. So that you can change and realize all your mistakes.’’
‘’And this you deserve. After what you did. Every action has to be in return. And Allah is Most Just!’’
Yes, this is not yet the payback for all that this man has done.
Let the man stay in prison until he truly confesses his guilt and repents. Men seem to deserve to be in prison. I hurried to get up. Looks like there's something I still want to say to that guy.
‘’And another one, you take care of our divorce papers! I don't want to know anyway in this month also our business is done!’’
The police officer immediately stepped into my place.
‘’It's done talking, Mom?’’
‘’Already, Sir. I say goodbye first. Thank you,’’ I said later.
‘’Ma, I'm not done talking to you!’’ his screams rushed after me, but were blocked by the police.
Seriate.
