Love is Imperfect

Deteriorated

Algi still sniffled in the arms of his parents who now also sniffled while hugging him. "Yes Allah... Why did all my children become like me?? Hix.. Pi.. Is this all a punishment for me? Because I fought Papa for marrying my ex-husband, the late Bang Emil?" mami Alisa asked as she recalled past events about her past with her late father Emil who was not approved by papa Yoga.

Papi Gilang shook his head, "No dear. It wasn't all your fault. All of this has indeed become the destiny of all our children. Let the five of them follow in our footsteps first. What's wrong with that? Isn't that how we can be united to this day and not be separated?"

Mami Alisa tergugu's. That's right said Papi Gilang. "Remember darling.. Laayukallifullahu nafsan illa 'alal wus'ahaa. Allah will not test every servant above their ability. Do you remember this post?"

Mami Alisa nodded still tightly hugging Algi's body which is now no longer useful. He was silent and busy digesting the words of the Papi.

"Remember what it was like to fall and hurt myself when I was separated from you by a threat to kill you?

The deg!

The deg!

The heart of the Algi beats. It felt like letting go when he heard the word murder from the mouth of the Papi for his Mama.

Algi unraveled his embrace and looked seriously at Papi Gilang. He smiled even though his face was covered with tears.

"Killed? Because what? By who? Why did Mami want to be killed and also why did Papi have to leave Mami?" ask Algi who is now sitting well and looking seriously at the Papi who now smiles so shady at him.

"It all happened because of Papi. Because Papi refuses to want to marry Mama Vita. Your brother's biological mother, Rayyan. It was hard for Papi to accept Mama Vita while what Papi wanted back then was your Mama."

"Mommy you're everything Papi. And Opa you know that. That's why they both made a deal. Which, Papi still have to marry Mama Vita if you don't want Mami you will kill them. Papi was upset at the time. But because of Papi's love for Mami you can't be bothered and bargained like a man in clothes, then Papi accepts the deal." Mami Alisa chuckles.

"With a note, don't bother your mom if she wants the wedding to happen. And yes, all of that is happening. But you know what, son?" papi Gilang asked Algi who was now looking at him seriously.

"What?" ask Algi back

"The fire then felt Papi's world crumble and collapse instantly. Papi never imagined that we would be separated before our bond became sacred because at that time Papi was still in High School. Still labile. But your mother taught Papi to remain calm and not rash in taking every decision that concerns the lives of many people and also Papi himself"

"Bapi salute your Mami. When he found out, if Papi was married, your mother chose to withdraw. But Papi did not want to. Papi wants to keep him with Papi. So an idea came up, Papi first registered our marriage to KUA before Oma you who registered the marriage of Papi and Mama vita."

"Don't ask me how Papi felt at the time. Papi was so devastated. Papi was devastated after arriving in America. But it was just for a minute. Then Papi came back as usual. You know what caused Papi to rise?"

Algi shook his head, but still looked seriously at Papi Gilang. "It's all because of your Mommy's smile. Your mother can smile and work when her heart is injured considering the distant papi. We both got equally bad. Love each other but stay apart. Fortunately, there are your brothers and your two brothers who always encourage Papi. Maybe if it wasn't for the three of them.. Papi was really down at the time." Obviously Papi Gilang made Algi and Mami Alisa shed their tears again.
