Chapter 1



"why?why should surabaya...?why not just stay here..?


that was the first sentence that my mother said when I asked for permission to migrate to Surabaya.Actually not too far, only about 4 hours per street from the city where I live today.


"I'm an adult, ma'am." I said as I grabbed and held my mother's hand..


"I want to walk my life.liat me..I'm not the little boy you carried 19 years ago.."I said while teasing my pant mother.


she was just my house mom, the one who lifted my tiny body that was just placed on the doorstep of this home 19 years ago.but she was more than anything to me..he who became a mother and father at the same time for me.ah ralat, for all his children in this orphanage.


"but Al.wasn't it you yourself who told me not to leave your mother, even when someone wanted to adopt you, you were always acting out of your true nature..you're going to make a troublemaker so they don't choose you for the adopted child.Why now it's just you who decided to leave mom...???"


"hufthhh..."


I sighed.Berat.pagi saw the mother that I knew from earlier had tried to hold the crystal grains so as not to fall from her eyelids...


"mother.." I hugged her tightly.


"i didn't go to leave you, but I also wanted to make money with my own hands.I've had enough 19 years of being a burden on you..now let me try to be a useful son and brother to you and my sisters..."


mom's shoulders shook and I started listening to her sobs..


"Al.you know.you are not a fool for me.Even from childhood you have helped me ..Little Al who every day brings mother's cake to school to be sold to her friends.The little al who always never forget to help me do all the work in the home..until adulthood, you are never ashamed to bring the box of cake boxes to always take it to your school...My little al.hiks..."


mom is shaking because of her sobs...


"mother.it's not enough to avenge what you've done for me all this time.things I've never gotten from those who should have taken care of me..."I sighed trying to muffle the roar in my heart as I remembered the old man who didn't want me at all.."but I'm grateful that Allah still loves me for meeting me with an angel like you.."


"don't cry mother.come on.." I took off my arms and wiped away her tears that had fallen from earlier.


"let me go. I want to make you proud of me, I want to be of use to you and this home..I also want to show those who dumped me that without them I can still and will continue to run through my life.yes even though they do not necessarily know it...come on mom's smile.you let me, right??right??"


"but Al...."


"I love you mom.I kn just go to surabaya.not far from here.I promise I will often go home.ya bu yaa plisss..."I put my two palms together and put on a pleading look made....


"ish.basal bad boy.."mother smiled as she softened my ears..


"all right, I let you go.but remember your promise.Often come home to see your mother..."


"Ready ma'am.I promise." I hugged her tightly...
