Medina approached and called out her son's name softly," Adam ...."
"Ma-Mama," Adam replied in surprise but still crying. Ignoring the dozens of eyes that looked at him in intense astonishment.
Medina cupped her son's face. He saw the handsome face of the man he had grown up with all his love and soul. Now that face looks thinner and unkempt. The man's eyes looked sunken and blackened. Irregular sideburns adorned his son's cheeks. Makes her son look older than his real age. Seeing her made Medina pity, it turns out that her son is also not okay. Using her thumb, the woman wiped the still loyal tears down the handsome face.
"Let's go, kid, we'll sit down." Medina decides to give Adam strength. I can't pretend I don't care anymore. Her maternal instinct could no longer let her son suffer that much. At least, his role as a place to lean and comfort his son should he do. Disappointed and angry at his son's bad deeds. However she was only a mother, she easily lost to her feelings. In the depths of his heart, the affection for Adam could never be extinguished and never diminished in the slightest.
Adam who was still crying obeyed his mother sitting in the waiting chair, like a sweet little boy. He sat in the waiting chair next to his mother. Medina embraced the burly body affectionately. His tiny baby does not feel like a grown man who is still a crybaby. And Medina knew her son's greatest pain was regret. Like a crystal glass that is broken to pieces, it will be very difficult to repair again.
"Have Son. Don't cry anymore. Mama's son must be strong. Where's Adam Mama who's been so arrogant all this time?" comfort Medina with gentle.
"Ma, Adam wanted to ask. Is it true that Haura wanted to kill herself because of what Adam did?" ask the man sad. Medina just nodded her head, unable to just say the word 'yes'. There was a stifling feeling, yet a little relief. Seeing with his own eyes, his son really regretted his actions.
"Oh Allah .. What kind of husband am I? Papa wants us to separate. I deserve to be punished." Adam hit his head that felt heavy.
"Dam, listen to Mama. Patience Nak! Strengthen your heart! It's a test and a trial. Improve yourself and reflect on what you have done. And ...." Medina was unable to continue her words. Somehow he could say such a cruel thing.
"And what's Ma?" adam asked, frowning. Wonder what your mom will say.
"Maybe it's better if you let go of Haura Nak! Poor daughter-in-law Mama has suffered too much. You better divorce Haura than you keep hurting her." As much as possible Medina did not want to hurt her son's feelings more.
"No Ma! Adam loved her. Adam would never divorce Adam's wife. Except ... except Ha-Haura herself divorced Adam. Adam will accept all his decisions. Whether to part or survive" said the man with a heavy heart. Although in fact, he was not necessarily willing to divorce Haura.
"Hhhhh .. forgive us Son. This time Papa and Mama can't defend you anymore. Mama can't do anything. This time you have to bear it alone, because the mistakes you have made are very fatal as a result. Make this a lesson to become a better person. In order that you may understand the meaning of life," advised Medina wisely. Hoping that his son would be able to take wisdom from all the mistakes he had made.
"Yes Ma, Adam knows. Adam does not deserve to be forgiven. Adam's mistake was too big" said Adam in despair.
"Don't be like that. All you have to do is fix yourself. And realize your mistake. For a while don't go see your wife. For his good, for the healing of his soul. It is still very fragile at the moment. If it comes to shock again, I don't know what will happen. Take it easy, Mama and Papa will take care of him as best as possible. When he is healed and improving, Mama will call you. Apologize, and about your relationship ... I leave it to your wife to make a decision. So pray a lot. May there be a soul mate among you." Adam was silent contemplating all of his mother's words.
"Yes, my mom is looking for Papa. You take care of yourself, son," said Medina sadly. He left his son alone.
Meanwhile, in Haura's nursery
"Yes Allah ... Papa forgot!" Ray patted his own forehead.
"Why Pa?" ask Micah slowly. Micah now sat next to his unconscious brother-in-law.
"Papa forgot about Mama. Poor Mama's in the parking lot alone waiting for Papa, "sorry Ray.
"Papa just go home. Its nothing. Micah knows Papa and Mama must have been tired all night looking after Brother. If there's anything, Micah will tell you soon" said the girl fixing her sister-in-law's blanket.
"Good Pa."
"Good sir." They both answered simultaneously.
"Why go, son?"
"Yes Pa, be careful."
Ray's out soon and he'll be back in the parking lot. It was certain that Medina would nag for waiting too long.
Ray's steps came to a halt as he was about to pass in front of the reception desk. When two strangers were sitting hugging in tears.
***
From the beginning of their conversation, there was a pair of eyes and ears that were paying attention and listening to the interaction of the two. A man shed his tears at the conversation of his wife and son. He did not want to be cruel to his son in such a way. He also had to be strict and fair. Not defending his guilty son. Whatever he did, he was still his proud son. Which is the source of his happiness. Always the best in his eyes.
But on the other hand, it must be strict. So that his son who always underestimated him and others get valuable lessons. So that his favorite son knows the point of error he has made and wants to change for the better. The only thing that is needed right now is patience.
The words Medina spoke to Adam made Ray feel very guilty. Moreover, he had been very rude to his son. Ray hugged his son and said the same thing to Medina. 'You must be strong, boy!' that's what I'd love to slide out of Ray's mouth. He knew this was not only heavy for Haura but for Adam as well. This was a test that his son and son-in-law had to pass, in order to improve self-quality.
