Alex decided to stay at her mother's house tonight, at her mother's request. At first Alex was sad, because before today he never once sat in his own mother's house. And today, when their relationship has improved and warmed up again, the mother did not waste their togetherness just like that. Besides Alex himself also still misses the mother who is full of tenderness, he wants to feel the gentle caress of the mother when before going to bed, as he always enjoyed.
From the afternoon after Kayla came home until dinner time arrived, her twin sisters Sita and Fita continued to chatter about Kayla. The two of them asked Alex a lot of things, about the good brother they just met today. Alex who actually does not like these two girls, in fact, is very welcome when asked about the girl of his puja. If only it wasn't a question about Kayla, Alex would have been caught off guard from the start with her two chatty twin sisters.
"Eat night is ready..! Come on, smart kids, here!" screech the mother from the kitchen.
Sita and Fita rushed to the dining table, followed by Alex who sounded a long sigh.
"Finally, I'm free from the two dwarves" murmured Alex slowly.
When Alex arrived at the dinner table, he smiled at the dishes. Asem vegetables and chicken liver satay, Alex's favorite menu. Before cooking, the mother had asked Alex what she wanted to eat, Alex just replied, 'I miss mama's cooking'.
Seeing the delicious dish that still reflects the smoke in front of him, it feels like Alex's stomach worms are protesting more and more impatient. Is there a worm? Haha..
"Thank you ma!"
"Do you still like this, son?"
"still. Mama still remember?"
"Remember, baby, every time you make this menu mama always your keinget."
Alex was stunned for a moment, "Mama is so we can eat together again. Come sit!"
"lya ma" Alex was a little bad with the mama.
If you pay attention, the face of the mother is so radiant compared to before. He seems to be so happy with this togetherness, Alex thought.
"Hey, all these satay rations are Brother huh!" Alex smiled mischievously while pulling a plate containing chicken heart satay towards him, keeping the food that one out of reach of his two younger siblings.
The two little girls glanced at Alex then at the mama, waving her protests through their adorable gazes. The mother smiled warmly while raising her shoulders.
"No papa, Bang Alex has never eaten with us. Sita Sama Fita has often eaten satay, well this mama makes your favorite chicken tongseng also loh." said the mama gently as she poured the chicken tongseng onto the plates of her two little girls one.
Sita smiled understandingly, but Fita still seemed to object. "But tomorrow mama made her one more!"
"yes." replied the mother.
Dinner this time was so delicious and warm for Vanessa. Without realizing it, her tears regained their senses, forming a small pond in the corner of her eye.
"Oh my God, thank you. It still feels like a dream to me, a beautiful dream come true. Thank you, God, for granting my dream. I can be with Alex again, I can hang out with my kids like this." she said in her heart, looking one by one at the faces of her children who were enjoying their dinner.

Vanessa came out of Sita and Fita's room after the two children fell asleep.He then looked into the guest room, before he allowed Alex to sleep there. But when Vanessa looked into the room, Alex could not be seen inside. Vanessa came in and called Alex. Alex was standing on the balcony of the room.
"Eh mama." Alex looked up when she heard her mother call her.
"Not sleeping, son?"
"Ma?"
"yes son?"
Alex hesitated to express his wish.
"What's Al?" Vanessa touched Alex's shoulder.
"Can I sleep with my mom? I want to sleep with my mom."
Vanessa's heart warmed up instantly. His chest rumbled with excitement and was moved to hear the words from Alex's mouth. Flashbacks just appeared in Vanessa's eyes, where little Alex pulled the edge of his shirt while whining, 'I want to sleep with my mom..
A drop of clear grain escaped Vanessa's eyes, raising Alex's hand to wipe away her tears.
"Ma.."
"lya boy. Yes, sleep with mom. Let mama elus you get some sleep!"
In Vanessa's room. Alex put his head on the lap of the mother, while the mother sat leaning on the headboard while stroking Alex's head.
"Ma?"
"yes son?"
"Mama's still dying, my birthday?"
"yes, mama inget."
"Mom did you want to use a reminder on hp?"
Vanessa chuckles, Alex's question somewhat insinuating her but Vanessa doesn't matter. Maybe this son had the meaning of the question.
"Al, you're my mother's first child, you're the first to inhabit my mother's womb. How could you forget the day of your birth, where maybe you forgot that day, a very special day for you."
Degg
Alex frowning. She answered the question as if she knew what Alex was thinking. Lately Alex has been thinking about birth, and the struggle of a mother, since she and Kayla accompanied Alisa to give birth a few days ago.he wanted to hear the story of her birth from her mother, she wanted to know the story of the struggle of the mother when she gave birth to him a dozen years ago.
Alex raised his head, looking at his face. "Ma, did I bother my mom?"
Vanessa frowned, "Nyusahin how do you mean?"
"When mommy gave me a shit, was mom in pain? Is papa next to mama?"
"You're this weird Al, whose name is mengahirin it's a pain. lya papa you nemenin mama." Vanessa chuckles small.
Alex was silent before asking. "How long has your mom been in pain?"
"Emm..." Vanessa smiled, glancing at Alex's face, "Kok you're interested in nanyain's Al?"
Alex did not answer. "When she woke up in the middle of the night, she woke up because she started to contract, about twelve in the evening. Papa, you're taking Mama straight to the hospital."
Alex listened carefully. Vanessa sighed calmly, her smile expanding in light of her special day.
"You were born at half past ten in the morning"
"Well?!" Alex was shocked to hear him.he immediately woke up and sat facing the mother.
"A half an hour ten?" Vanessa nodded. "Mom contractions from twelve o'clock in the night to half ten?"
"yes." replied the mother, making Alex limp to hear it.
"Yes God.. Alisa who was just a three-hour contraction was almost dead, how was the almost ten-hour mama??" inner Alex.
"AI?" Call Vanessa when you see Alex stunned.
Alex looked at the face of the mother whose smile had not faded in the least since. Alex swallowed his saliva heavily, hearing the brief story of the mother who apparently struggled to give birth to herself by facing contractions for almost ten hours.
Vanessa smiled, "Son, you know, even though giving birth is painful, no woman regrets having given birth to her child. Being a mother is a gift, being happy has you, being lucky to have a child like you"
Vanessa holds both sides of Alex's face. "Pregnating and giving birth is a gift for a woman. Especially the first pregnancy, giving birth to the first child. Thank you son, lucky mama God is destined to be your birth mother."
Alex clasped his mother's hand still on both sides of his face. Her tears rolled back down her cheeks.
"I'm lucky to be my mother's first child. But I was stupid, why did I realize I had a great mama. After I hurt my mother a lot, I just realized, I am a child who does not know myself. I should be grateful, but I hurt my mom" he said, sobbing.
"I.." Vanessa wiped Alex's tears. "It wasn't your fault, baby, it was the wrong mom. Bad mom is like you, mama is so stupid because you have to leave."
Alex shook his head, "Mama's mistakes are not as big as my mama's suffering to worry about me, right, not as big as my mama's sacrifice to nurse me. Do you want to apologize for this ungodly child ma?" ask Alex again.
"Std.. Al, don't say that again, son! Mama loves you, you're a good boy. Look son, it's not all sacrifice, it's love. A mother's love for her child. Sincere love brings sincerity, not suffering. Mama's happy"
"I'm sorry mom, you can't be a good mom to me."
"No ma, even though my mom made one of my mama's been the best mom for me." Alex wiped away my mother's tears.
"We are missing those bitter memories huh ma! I learned a lot from past experiences"
The mother nodded haru. "Mama also realized the mistake of mama right, everything is fine now. I love mama."
Now the tears of Vanessa's suffering are over, dried up by the warm touch of her beloved son. But the other tears continued to wash over Vanessa's cheeks, her tears and happiness.he drew the son into her arms, hugging him affectionately.
"My mom is also very good with you, son. Mama's son is big now, he's an adult, it's getting pinter" Vanessa kissed Alex's head.
Alex closed his eyes enjoying the gentle touch of his loving mother. So was Vanessa, she was so happy. It felt like this moment was too wonderful if it was only considered a dream. Can re-hugging Alex, who has now grown into a handsome young man who has wisdom.
"Ma?"
"Hm?"
"Did mom ever hate me?"
Vanessa opened her eyes, "What kind of question is Al?"
"I hated my mom, you know that. Did you ever hate me who used to hurt you?"
Vanessa rubs Alex's back, "Al, the kids' mischief, no parent hates his child. Even if they say they hate their children, they can't really hate their own children. Because the love of parents for their children is too great, and sincere. That love existed before the child was born, where perhaps they could hate their own child."
Alex fell silent. "You know, son, when a parent hurts his child, they're the ones who feel the pain. When they make mistakes, they are sad. And when they see the grief of their children, they are the ones who suffer first. That's what mama Rasain's been all this time."
Alex was crying in her mother's arms. "Mama never lived a quiet life after mama left you son. Mama may smile, but my heart is broken. Mama can't see the hatred in your eyes, but mama still wants to see your face, because mama misses you at all."
"Sorry mommy is Al.."
"I'm sorry ma.."
"I'm niesel ma.."
"Mama is more comfortable. From now on, I promise you that you will not make mistakes that make you sad again. I'll try to be a good mother to you."
Alex let go of his embrace and looked at the face of the mother. "Don't promise ma, I'm afraid of promises. I'm afraid I can't believe my mom. I don't want to make the same mistake again. From now on there will be no more hatred in my eyes, and in my heart."
Vanessa nodded in novelty, "You're not going to promise. Mama will try to do the best for you, mama does not want you far away from mama."
"Will not ma. I won't let you stay away from me."
Vanessa's smile grew, she was really happy now.he held both sides of Alex's face, brought her closer and kissed her son's forehead long enough.
"*Mas, how are you? Sorry to interrupt your break.
I just want to share my happiness with you, I'm sure if you hear this you'll be surprised and happy.
Today Alex came to see me, she was crying on my lap, she was hugging me, and she fell asleep next to me after having my head removed. My dream came true, your wish came true.
Alex came back to me.
You're right, little Alex we're back, I've seen it for myself.
Thank you, mas*!"
A smile was imprinted on the middle-aged man's lips. After he finished reading a short message sent by his ex-wife, a few minutes ago. His relieved breath sounds like a quiet. Since the bad events in the past that made a big change in the son, finally today arrived as well. The day he wanted to see the most, the day his son and mother reunited. Finally this happy day has arrived. As a father, he was certainly happy, although he did not witness directly how the son and his mother shared tears and hugs.

The morning sun emits its glare in the sky of Jakarta. At Soekarno-Hatta airport, a young man sauntered down from a plane that had just landed a few minutes ago. With a big smile, he stepped up while dragging his big suitcase. Looking around, he paused his steps for a moment while closing his eyes, looking up at the sky, inhaling the air and muttering.
"Welcome to Jakarta!"
he opened his eyes while thinking. "Eh kok I who say welcome anyway, should be Jakarta who welcome me. Who came to me, not Jakarta." he chuckled amused himself then continued his steps.
The young man circulated his gaze, looking around for the whereabouts of the figure who had been asked to pick him up.
Drrt....
His phone rang, he reached into his jacket pocket. It turned out that the caller was the one who was going to pick him up.
"Hello Om?
".........."
"Owh. yaudah no papa."
".........."
"Okay Om, no problem."
After turning off his phone he walked to the side of the room and sat in one of the waiting chairs, waiting for the Om who he said would be late to pick him up.
The sparkle of his eyes did not fade since earlier, although he was getting tired of waiting for an invitation that never came. he was so happy to be able to set foot on the land of Jakarta, because it had been a long time he wanted to visit the capital. But even though this time he went to Jakarta, the goal was not to go for a walk, but to meet someone. Someone who has been looking for months of his existence, he is the only reason that makes this young man fairly desperate to go to Jakarta alone.
Without the young man knowing, there was someone who loved him since he departed from his hometown. A mysterious man wearing sunglasses, and all-black clothes followed him all the way to Jakarta. Ride the same plane with him and now sit not far from the young man while continuing to pay attention to his movements.
The mysterious man actually had no important business with the young man, but they had the same reason. That is, the person they are looking for is the same person. When the mysterious man found out that the young man was going to Jakarta to meet the person he had been looking for all this time, he did not waste the opportunity, and decided to follow the young man to Jakarta.
The two of them, the young man and the mysterious man had indeed come to Jakarta for the same person. But the intentions and goals of both are much different.
