140. Who is my mother ...?

Ayu also woke up when she felt movement beside her. He turned his head and saw Fikri who was still awake.

"Why Bi, can't you sleep ?" ask Ayu.

"Yes," said Fikri briefly.

"Think what ?" ask Ayu.

"Mmm .., I'm thinking about Mom again," said Fikri doubtful.

"Mother ?" repeat Ayu while frowning.

Not without reason Ayu was confused. Because as he remembered Fikri never mentioned 'mother' to his adoptive parents. Fikri called his adoptive parents Papa and Mama. Ayu calls Abba and Umma to her parents. Then they agreed to call Bayan and Anna as Nathan and Nicko called them Father and Mother. Then who is the mother that Fikri means ?.

"Abi means, Whose mother?, which mother ?" ask Ayu.

"My biological mother ...," said Fikri lethargic.

Ayu gasped in shock when she heard her husband's words. She got up and hugged Fikri tightly as if she wanted to give strength to her husband. Ayu understood why Fikri remembered her biological mother. Fikri must be envious to see Nicko accompanied by his parents when proposing to the girl of his dreams yesterday. Isn't that natural ?.

"I'm sorry Bi. Ummi forgot ...," whispered Ayu lirih.

"Gapapa Mi," said Fikri while kissing Ayu's forehead fondly.

"Why did Abi suddenly want to be the same Mother ?. Though this sslama rich Abi do not want to know that. Sorry about Bi. You see, after knowing that Bayan's father is your real uncle, you rich people forget everything. Forgot who and how your real father was. Also forget who your real mother is. I did not ask because I did not want to ruin your happiness just met your real family," said Ayu.

Fikri seemed to take a long breath.

"Don't want to know Mi. I just don't think my real mother is a good person. Don't know why, I also feel that my mother is ..., evil," said Fikri doubtfully.

"Wicked how does Abi mean ?" ask Ayu not understand.

"Couldn't explain Mi. It's rich in some kind of premonition. And you know that all this time my hunch has never been wrong" said Fikri.

Ayu thought for a moment then nodded. And a moment later he looked worried.

"Oour biological mother is a bad person, what crime has she committed ?" ask Ayu.

"I don't know Mi either. I've never met you before" said Fikri.

"Yes asked dong Bi to Daddy," pinta Ayu half forced.

"What would happen if it were ?" ask Fikri doubtfully.

"You deserve to know your origin Bi. Ask, God willing, make you calm. And who knows if your hunch this time is completely wrong" said Ayu.

Fikri smiled then nodded his head.

"You can find the right time to ask about the same mother Bayan's father" said Ayu.

It did not take long Fikri was asleep. Ayu smiles knowing her husband made it through her anxiety that night. A moment later Ayu hugged her husband and fell asleep.

And it was in the park that Fikri and Bayan met to speak one eye. Bayan deliberately chose the place because he wanted to maintain the privacy of Fikri.

"So how Dad. Can I see my real mother ?" ask Fikri after they've gone stale.

"God willing Dad will help. Only problem ... Your mother doesn't want to see you" Bayan said carefully.

Fikri seemed to be breathing heavily. He had expected that it would be difficult to meet the woman who brought him into this world for classical reasons.

Apparently Fikri guessed if his biological mother left him just like that in an orphanage because he wanted to be free. And now, after decades have passed, Fikri believes that the mother must have had a new family. So it is natural that the woman prefers her husband and children rather than meeting her past because it is considered to damage her happiness.

"I know Dad. My mom has a new life and family now. I understand that he refused to see me" said Fikri sadly.

"I'm sorry son" Bayan said.

"Gapapa Yeah. If you can tell me who he is and where he lives. Let me find a way to find him later. If my mother was ashamed to admit Me, I would be gone from her life forever. I just want to know Mom so I can carry out my duties as a Child" Fikri said in a trembling voice.

Bayan grabbed Fikri's shoulder and rubbed it slowly. After that he told me about the past involving him and his parents Fikri.

"Your father, Alan. He decided to run away and marry a woman named Ejah. But he never met us with that woman named Ejah. After a few months of escape, your father went home alone. Just alone without Ejah. I was confused to see him so depressed. Apparently Alan was left by his wife. He turned into a figure that sucks because he likes to drink, gamble and play women. Then your Grandpa and Grandma pay people to help find Ejah and find out why Ejah left Alan. It's hard because Ejah disappeared as if swallowed by the earth" Bayan said, pausing his story to take a deep sigh.

"Disappeared so, Dad ?" ask Fikri.

"Yes. His father got the stone. He who used to play women and leave them was actually left behind by the woman he loved. Your father was depressed when your mother left. Alan fell ill and died. Well, when Alan died, it was your grandfather's man who found your mother. Your Grandpa and Grandma were disappointed and hurt. They feel like everything is too late. Because even if it was found, Alan would never be able to see Ejah. That's why your Grandpa and Grandma stopped calling Ejah home. I can't do anything because your Grandpa Grandpa's decision is absolute and inviolable. At that time, no one among us knew that Ejah was pregnant when she escaped. Later We found out Ejah gave birth but We lost track of her. By the end of his life, your Grandpa and Grandma never knew that Alan had a son from Ejah" Bayan said, staring far ahead.

Both of Fikri's eyes looked teary. He is happy because he has a compact family and loves each other. Even though the father has made a big mistake and humiliated the family, but they still want to help his father to find his mother.

"I've seen your mother for a while. I asked him to repent" Bayan said after a moment of silence.

Bayan's words made Fikri feel dizzy, his heart was beating faster. Fikri was worried if his conjecture was right. Fikri believes his mother is a criminal.

"Prieve ?" muttered Fikri while kneeling his temple.

"Yes," Bayan said as he turned towards Fikri.

Fikri tried to regulate his breathing which began to feel tight. He must know everything now because he does not want to stay too long in curiosity.

"What evil have you done, Dad ?" asked Fikri with a trembling voice.

"Killing ...," Bayan said.

Bayan's reply made Fikri surprised. Although he tried to be ready, but hearing the fact that his mother was a murderer made Fikri shocked. His hands clenched tightly, his mouth tight and sweat flooded his body.
