Maura: The New Year Tragedy

Forgive Mama

"Mama!!!"

Marisa who had almost entered the international departure gate stopped her footsteps. She clutched the handle of her suitcase tightly as the child she gave birth to 29 years ago finally returned to calling herself "Mama" after the incident 25 years ago where the husband who went to bring his youngest child.

"Mama!!"

Marisa can not hide her sense of smell, a happy smile is created on the beautiful face of Marisa who is not young anymore, even her tears came out by themselves when the child again called her "Mama", it feels like a dream. He looked back before finally his whole body was facing perfectly with his eyes looking at the child who was already in front of him crying looking at him.

"Anelis." murmured Marisa softly. She could not believe that Anelis actually called her "Mama" after several years of calling herself "Aunty".

"Mah..!!" with a choked voice Anelis walked slowly towards the Mama and directly hit the old body of the Mama. The embrace of the old body of the Mother who has conceived and given birth to it. The mother she used to blame and she ignored her presence for letting the Papa and his sister get away from her life.

"Pardon Ane all this time, Ma." Anelis crying in Marisa's arms. Anelis hugged Marisa's body so tightly as if she had never met her mother. All the resentment, anger and disappointment Anelis who once disappeared and left his love and affection for the Mama who harbored the pain of his life away from love and his two little angels.

"Sorry, Ane never trusted Mama and actually hurt Mama" said Anelis who used to prefer to live with her Uncle, Sister of Marisa since the Papa, who had been with her, Armand goes to take the baby Freya.

Anelis always blames Marisa for the departure of the Papa as well as the younger sister. Anelis doesn't even want to call Marisa Mama after Armand takes Freya away. Anelis called her Uncle and Aunt Mommy and Daddy. And Marisa let it all go, because of all her faults that back then had nothing to care for and gave Freya the proper treatment.

Anelis used to think that it was her mother who scolded the Papa and also asked the Papa to leave her life to bring Freya and no longer be able to meet them.

Though all that is true, it is true that Marisa who asked Armand to go and return to her legitimate wife, Arini also brought Freya who was sick at that time. Because at that time Marisa's financial condition is very difficult if you have to care for Freya who is in need of medical expenses that are not small also have to treat Anelis as well. Finally Marisa prefers to take off the new princess she was born to bring Armand who does have the economy that allows if you have to care for and provide proper treatment for Freya.

And Anelis only knew the story of all her parents' past yesterday before Marisa said goodbye to her who will return to the Netherlands to remember the past as well to calm down.

Anelis also found out that Papa had died. Papa who used to pamper himself before Freya. Papa always recites her fairy tales before she wades her sweet dreams in the dark of night. Papa is always there for him when he falls while learning to ride a bike or is playing. Papa who he wanted to meet a long time ago turned out to be dead and he only knew now.

"Mom forgave you before you apologized to Mama."

"Mama has forgiven you for a long time."

"Because you've never done anything wrong to Mama."

"And you deserve to be angry and hate Mama" said Marisa who returned Anelis' embrace affectionately.

"Stay Anelis is wrong, Ma" Anelis said in a hoarse voice.

Anelis broke her embrace, she stared fixedly at Marisa's eyes. His fleeting eyes were so similar to Freya's, the younger sister. Both have brown eyes, while he has brown eyes and looks like Papa's eye color, Armand.

"Mom don't go to Holland first."

"We're here first, accompany Ane."

"Anelis wants to go to Papa's grave with Mama."

"Also with Freya." Anelis's tears fell down her cheeks as she remembered the dead Papa and Freya who still did not accept their presence as family members.

"Don't go, Ma."

"We'll meet Freya first."

"Either he will drive us out or accept us, we better meet Freya before Mama returns to the Netherlands."

"I beg you, Ma. Don't go yet."

"We'll meet Freya and take her to Papa's grave."

"See please, Ma." Anelis held Marisa's hands tightly together.

Marisa just silently lowered her head by crying in silence. He himself actually also wanted to meet with Freya and visit Armand's tomb before returning to the Netherlands. But considering Freya who seemed unwilling to look at him or accept his presence made Marisa undo her intention to meet Freya before leaving. Not that Marisa was disappointed in Freya, but maybe Freya was disappointed in Marisa. Freya thought that Marisa was the one who did not want to take care of and raise Freya.

Marisa raised her head to look at Anelis whose face had turned red from crying, her eyes were swollen as well. Maybe her current condition is the same as Anelis's. Marisa shook her head slowly.

"Mama can't love."

"Mom should go now."

"Mom should check in soon" said Marisa because she had heard the announcement of the check-in time staying forty minutes.

"I'm sorry Mama, Anelis."

"Give Freya your regards to Mama if you meet Freya."

"Mama from before until now love him."

"Well you too, Mama loves you." Marisa kissed Anelis on the forehead and looked at her daughter with a sad smile.

Anelis shook her head slowly as Marisa took off her hand. She wants to be with her mother, she doesn't want to part with her. Although he also has plans to leave after visiting the tomb of the Papa and apologize to Freya. Either he will return to Spain where he hid during his possession of Michel or to the Netherlands where he feared because that is where the beauty and peace in a family was destroyed when the Papa and the Brother go awayl. Anelis was still thinking of a place to go later.

"Mama go first."

"Take care of yourself." Marisa grabbed her suitcase and went back to the departure gate.

"What if Freya finds out Mama's gone from her life again?"

"What if Freya is even more disappointed and does not want to accept the existence of Mama."

Marisa stopped her steps back when she heard Anelis scream.

"Anellis knows Mama always secretly cries for Freya as well as Papa."

"Mom don't be selfish."

"Don't hurt your own heart and just walk away."

"Mama coward!! Egoist mama!!"

Anelis continued to speak in a loud voice without caring for the people around her looking at her with concern.

"If Mama still goes, not only Freya who is getting farther with Mama. But Anelis will also stay away from Mama."

"Annellists hate Mama!!" shouted Anelis as she saw Marisa just continue her steps and disappeared behind the glass door after checking.

Andre who had been standing not far from Anelis stepped his feet closer to the woman who until this moment still occupied the most special place in his heart.

Without many words, Andre hugged the woman to calm down. Andre just kept quiet while occasionally kissing the top of the head Anelis also rubbed the back and hair Anelis.

Long enough Anelis cried in Andre's arms until finally the noise of a phone call made him break Andre's embrace. Anelis wiped her tears before finally picking up her phone that she had placed in the back pocket of her pants. Anelis squinted her eyes at ID. The caller's name is Bryan. Because since the incident of misunderstanding that Bryan and himself are no longer related.

"Why not get caught? Who the hell?" asked Andre because he saw Anelis who never raised the phone.

"Bryan." Anelis replied in a soft voice resembling a mutter.

"Just what, who knows is important." suggested Andre and Anelis who still looks sad holding back his tears.

"Hallo Elis!!!"

"Is Aunt Marisa really out of here?" bryan's voice sounded so panicked after Anelis raised a phone call from Bryan.

But Anelis just kept quiet without answering Bryan's question, he remembered Marisa who actually left without caring about herself and Freya.

"Elis answer!! Is it really Anelis!!" the sound of Bryan's clap heard along with the sound of Freya's cry made Anelis cry again when she heard her sister who was also crying.

"Half hour's left."

"Now Mama has checked in." replied Anelis in a raucous voice then ended the telephone connection and re-hugged Andre and cried in the arms of the man she once loved. He loved so much.

**********

Bryan immediately drove his vehicle at full speed at the request of the wife. Though he was very worried considering the condition of his wife who is currently two-bodied. But how else, Freya was angry when she slowed down the speed of the vehicle and was calm when she drove a vehicle quickly.

Bryan was driving with one hand, while the other hand was holding the hands of Freya who was sweating even though the AC temperature in the car was full.

"Kok stopped anyway Mas." complained Freya when Bryan stopped the car.

"Little red light." Bryan replied with a tired breath.

Freya will be angry if there is a red light blocking the speed of the vehicle that Bryan drove. Or Freya will be angry when it suddenly jams even if not for long. Bryan to the head bobble saw the behavior of Freya who was a little angry and sulky but easily returned to calm. Either this was due to being pregnant or what Bryan didn't know. Or maybe because of the thirty-minute chase to the airport and now it is fifteen minutes more but still on the road never to the airport.

"If the red light keeps coming when?!!" Freya let out her tears again.

"I want to see Mama now."

"I don't want Mama to go."

Bryan rubbed Freya's head slowly. He knows how his wife feels right now. While Freya was willing to accept Marisa with a big heart, at that time Marisa left without knowing that Freya had accepted. Be ill. Maybe that's what Freya and Marisa are feeling right now.

"Please baby, we'll be here soon. We have entered the airport area" Bryan said as the car he was driving entered the airport area. But from the entrance to the departure flight gate abroad it takes quite a long time in driving, approximately ten minutes.

"Hopefully the flight is delayed." hope Bryan in his heart so that his wife can meet with Marisa and not sad again also feel guilty.

The car was perfectly parked and Bryan immediately gave the keys to the bodyguard who had been following him from behind. He and Freya immediately entered and searched the flight schedule to the Netherlands as well as Spain because they both did not know where Marisa was going.

"Spain was twenty minutes ago and there's another half an hour from now" Bryan said.

Freya silently stared at the flight to Holland just took off. And that's exactly half an hour from what Anelis said on the phone.

"Mama really left Freya." muttered Freya softly with tears that had soaked her cheeks especially when she heard the sound of the plane that had just flown. And he's convinced it's the plane his mother was riding.

"Dearly!!"

Freya turned her head as did Bryan when the name Freya was called by a woman. He saw Anelis standing with Andre with a distance quite close to them.

Freya's lips trembled like she wanted to say something when she saw Anelis. With great difficulty Freya said, "Sister" in a soft voice.

Freya moved her feet quickly and Anelis did the same. The two of them hugged with a crying voice that made Bryan and Andre also feel happy mixed with sadness.

"I'm sorry Brother, Reya." said Anelis.

"Freya also apologized." Freya replied.

"Mama's gone" said Freya.

Anelis nodded, "Yes, Mama left without caring about us anymore." Anelis replied.

They were still hugging tightly in tears they were holding all the mixed flavors. Between happy and sad.

Happy because they forgive each other and can let go of longing between brother and sister.

Sad because their Mama had to leave before they were all reunited in one family.

"You don't feel sad anymore. You can catch your mom in the Netherlands."

"Maybe Aunt Marisa wants to calm down and also reminisce about her past in the Netherlands" Andre said as the two sisters looked calm and took off their hugs.

"What Andre said is true. Later you and Anelis can go there together."

"But not now because your content is still vulnerable if you have to take a long trip, let alone a plane flight" Bryan confirmed Andre's words also gave a warning to his wife.

Freya and Anelis just nodded. They finally came home with Freya and Anelis walking while holding hands. The two men walked behind them with their own thoughts.

Bryan was thinking about the problem of corporate money embezzlement. While Andre thought about how Anelis would accept himself back because yesterday he had rejected Anelis on the grounds that there was no more love for Andre in his heart also no longer their binders. Michel is gone forever.

"Done!!! Yes!!!"

"I'm sorry Mama!!"
