Farid who was still busy with his thoughts, that night he sat pensively on the edge of the bed. Given how dirty, cheating, and selfish he had been all along. He went to the nightstand and took a picture frame showing a portrait of himself with Abah, Ummi and Daffa a few years ago, the banks during the great feast day which in their religion is called the Eid al-Fitr or Lebaran Day.
'Daffa, your life is very lucky. Although your birth mother has long left you, but Abah loved your mother during her life. Not like my real father always hurt Ummi. In fact, until the end of his life he never asked me how my school, my company, what I wanted, or at least gave me the little attention I needed. Maybe that's why, then I acted always looking for attention from the figure of an Abah. I envy your perfect life, Daffa.'
Farid muttered to himself while crying without a sound. And you guys know that, too, right? It felt so soul-stifling. Things that seemed impossible to do by an arrogant and impressed Farid had no feelings. But this time, she was really crying.
"Why is my heart troubled? I feel tired of my own life. I am too guilty of sin. Could it be that the people I've hurt would be willing to forgive me?" inner Farid while sighing violently. He was worried and worried.
Then, the man put back the picture frame he held. Then, still in a state of crying he ran to find the whereabouts of Ummi. His bare feet stepped into the kitchen and yes, he found the woman he called Ummi was washing dishes there.
Farid stood in the kitchen doorway. Adjusting the breath that was so painful because he held back his crying voice so as not to come out. Even though the tears were still wetting her cheeks. "Ummi ..," said Farid with a voice choked by the sedu sedan.
Ummi turned towards the soft voice. Implied on his shoulder a strand of anger that began to subside after seeing a wet object in Farid's eye fertilizer. "Farid," welcome Ummi.
"I'm sorry Farid, Mi." The man squealed as he pleaded at Ummi's feet. The sight really made my heart full. Ummi could not help but cry.
"Wake up, son," said Ummi while holding back the outpouring of crying. He guided Farid to get up.
"Ummi, Farid apologized to Ummi and Abah. Farid had gone over the line and forgotten the uplifted both from Ummi and Abah all along. Forgive Farid, Mi."
"Wake, Son. Let's talk, "take Ummi while embracing Farid. They sat and talked in the family room. At that time, Abah still had needs outside. So, Abah did not see this heartwarming event.
"Ummi, I'm sorry that Farid has been taking all the attention of Abah and Ummi. Farid only wants attention from the figure of a father, Mi. Ummi knew 'the late father first-"
"Ummi understands, son. Ummi knows without you having to explain it to Ummi. But you understand that too, right? No matter how bitter the life we live, it is still not justified if we take a deviant path again to violate the rights of others. Remember, kid, we live by the rules, honey."
"Yes, Mi. Forgive Firid, Mi."
"Already, Son. Ummi also apologizes for not paying attention to you."
"No, Mi. It's all Farid's fault. Ummi is not at all wrong, Mi." Farid's cries broke again in Ummi's arms. Just like when I was a kid. Where she would complain and cry on Ummi's lap whenever she felt sad.
Farid admitted his mistake with a chest of air. He accepted if Abah said and Ummi gave him punishment. His actions have already happened, now all that is left is regret and a piece of hope. May Ummi, and Abah not hate him.
