Love is Imperfect

Must be strong

"You must be strong, son. Same with papi. Worsening up, crying, disappointment and heartache is normal. But we must not drag on in sadness. Papi still remembers what your brother said when he contacted Papi secretly for fear of being caught with your Opa."

"At that time, your brother and sister said. Why is Papi sad because he is far from Mak? Mak is not. In fact Mak is getting excited to live his days just armed with our photos while picnicking in the safari park in Medan first. If Mak can, why can't Papi? Aren't you two the same? Equally loving each other but not yet able to unite because it is not the time? Add your brother at that time who finally made Papi aware. If life keeps going on its axis."

"If we want to get back to him then we must try to get better and also we must be strong and rise from the temporary slump," papi Gilang said to make Algi who is now thinking about the fate of his marriage with his wife stunned for a moment to think and unite all the events experienced by him and the Papi was exactly the same.

The difference is, Tiara left him. Not because of the threat or whatever.

Papi Gilang stroked the top of Algi's head, "Listen to papi, son. Make your life better than it is now. Maybe you and Tiara are not yet the time to unite. Therefore, fate separates the two of you. You are separated temporarily so that you can help yourself become better. Just follow what Papi said. All this will be beautiful in his time."

"Don't be disappointed with the decision of fate! All this happened for my own sake. After this, where do you want to go to college? Is there something you want to go to?" ask Papi Gilang to Algi.

Algi breathed. "Abang and adek have decided that we will both study at the faculty in the field only. What do you do to the country? The knowledge is the same. Adek only chose in Medan because he was waiting for his husband and adopted children. Why are you so far away from you? We both have a list. Papi just calm down, okay?" he said to Papi Gilang who was now smiling and stroking his head.

"Rest. We will also rest. See your Mommy? Very pale face. From morning we were worried about you" said Papi Gilang, hugging his youngest son.

Algi Menajdi felt guilty for making the Mami sick because he thought about his household problems. This is what Allgi did not want. And so he covered it up.

Algi knew that. Along the way to take Tiara and until he came home was followed by a sedan owned by Papi's men. Algi. Apparently, both of his parents were still worried about him.

"Yes, you also have to take a shower and immediately go to the mosque. Will Maghrib time soon be in?"

Papi Gilang smiled. "certain. Papi can't leave. Papi should accompany your Mami."

"Yes Pi. Mami istirahta huh? My brother is not pa-pa. Istirhatlah!" she told Mami Alisa, who now returns her eyes glazed over.

Algi tightly hugged the frail body of the Mami. "I've mi.. Brother is fine. Promise brother! Brother won't be like this. As long as Mami and Papi never leave Abang. Brother and sister need you both. It's just the two of you that we have while half our lives are gone." lirih Algi hugged the frail body of the Mami even tighter.

Mami Alisa gently stroked Algi's warm body. "Of course baby. We will be with you forever. Unless fate takes us both you must not be sad. Sooner or later, death will catch up with us! Understood?"

"Again understand, Mi. Take a shower first. My whole body is very sticky. And also earlier at the airport we had time to do that for the last time before Tiara actually left me somehow." Inner Algi at the end of his speech.

And Mami Alisa who is now looking at him with eyes that are getting swollen from crying for too long.
