Mom, Let Me Be Happy

CHAPTER 13. Overturned

Of course, Santana's statement made Mariam's self-esteem like being trampled on. Unsatisfied apparently, Santana makes Mariam suffer with his departure. Now he just came and created a new, more real wound.

Instead of arguing or defending her rights, Mariam resigned to what Santana did. Mariam's numbness, this time her tears did not come out. There was another determination inside him.

"Good, Mas. If that's what you want," replied Mariam in full acceptance. Even Santana felt astonished, why did Mariam not look sad this time. Mariam covered all her weaknesses with confident steps.

"I'm thankful God showed me again, how genuine the people I've loved have been!" mariam said with a cold look.

Mariam then packed her personal belongings as well as Shaka's. I don't know where to go because all of this is so sudden. Santana's very unfair attitude towards himself and shaka, it makes Mariam encouraged to immediately leave the house.

"Mother ... Dad, are we moving house?" ask the boy who just came out of his room. Shaka was astonished to see Marian busy packing things. He kept asking questions, but his parents would not answer.

"Shaka, listen to me. From today, we're going to get out of here" said Mariam, holding onto both of Shaka's tiny cheeks. While the father that Shaka had longed for was silent without a word. Even Santana turned her face away as Shaka looked at her questioningly.

"Mom, where are we going? isn't this our house?" shaka asked still with confusion. Mariam simply smiled full of strength, then continued packing her things. Mariam's tears didn't even want to drip again at that time.

Too many tears have been drained because of the magnitude of hope, the breadth of desire and the good of prejudice. Now Mariam is tired of all that weakness. It's okay if now she has to be driven away in humiliation, one day Mariam believes things will improve and side with her.

All the items are finished packed, only Shaka's clothes and toys. Mariam realizes that the house is not hers, despite Shaka's right to her. Now the determination has been unanimous, too often Santana presents all the sacrifices and loyalty.

"Honey, say goodbye to your father" Mariam said. With a disappointed face the boy then shone Santana's hand. Never mind, to just show his sadness, Santana does not.

"Mother, where are we going?" shaka asked, whose hand was now in Mariam's hand. Both of them stepped away from the house that had become a shelter from the hot sun and rain. The house that at once became a witness to Mariam's life full of bitter and bitter.

"Where, son. As long as you're with Shaka, you're happy enough" Mariam replied, smiling at Shaka. Shaka returned the smile of the woman who became his pride. I don't think there's anything they need to worry about anymore.

"Busom!!" santana shouted from inside the house, then ran to the place where Mariam, and Shaka were standing. Santana wanted to say something to them. With hesitation Santana started to speak.

"Mariam, is all this going to make you hate me?" santana asked and lowered her face. Like waiting for a deliberate regret. Even he still asked about things that he actually knew the answer to.

Mariam looked at Shaka and said. "Of course not, Mum. We never even thought of having any more feelings towards you!" Mariam Strictly.

"Alright, Mariam. I totally understand" Santana added. Mariam only smiled meaningfully, with a sharp eye like a knife ready to hit.

"Consider the life you choose, Mother. We have to go," continued Mariam. Mariam guided Shaka's tiny hand and this time actually stepped away and didn't turn her head again.

Walk the streets on foot. Sometimes Mariam carries a tired-looking Shaka. Suddenly stop in front of him, Denny who brought his favorite motorcycle.

"Uncle Denny..," said Shaka happily. Denny smiled at Shaka with a broken and unbearable feeling. Denny's presence stops Mariam and Shaka.

Mariam was silent at the time. While Denny stared at mariam's face full of pain. Watching the woman he loved walk away.

During the trip, Mariam and Denny were silent. I want Denny to vent his sadness over the situation that befell Mariam, and Shaka. But all Denny hold because he does not want to muddy the atmosphere.

"Where are you taking us, man?" mariam finally opened her voice. However, Denny answered him with a question. "Do you have a goal, Mariam?" abugn.

Mariam just kept quiet and shook her head. Denny can see that from the rearview mirror of his motorcycle. "Of course you don't know" Denny added.

Denny took his motorcycle to his house. It was no coincidence that Denny was able to find Mariam, and Shaka who was stranded. Apparently there was a neighbor Mariam who again reported to Denny, that something had happened to Mariam as well as her son.

About 30 minutes later, they arrived at Denny's house. It looks like I've been waiting in front of the porch with an anxious face. Mariam felt awkward and uneasy.

They all went downstairs and greeted Denny's mother. Shaka looks happy to meet Denny's mother. The middle-aged woman graciously greeted them.

"Come, Son. Bring your things, " said I invite Mariam. Mariam smiled, at that time she had no power to refuse, because Mariam herself was still confused where to go.

Denny gestures for Mariam, and Shaka goes in first, and Denny brings her things. In the house, apparently Mother had prepared food in the form of rice and side dishes. Deliberately preparing it to welcome the arrival of Mariam, and Shaka.

"Come to Shaka" said Denny's mother, bringing Shaka into her lap. Shaka said and immediately felt comfortable with the middle-aged woman who gave the impression of being very kind and loving. For some reason, for the first time the loneliness that dwells in the heart of Shaka was instantly extinct at that time.

"Grandmother... Can Shaka call Grandma?" shaka asked politely. Denny smiled hearing that. While Mariam was still silent and timid.

"Of course, Shaka. Grandma is indeed your grandmother" said Denny's mother with a smile. Shaka hugged his new grandmother tightly. Shaka expressed his gratitude while shedding tears.

"Denny.. invite them to eat, Mother will report to Rt. and Rw. first," Mother said and then left. Denny invites Shaka, and Mariam to eat.

"Mas, I feel bad for Mom" Mariam said. Mariam still looks nervous and stiff in front of Mom, and Denny understands that. Denny convinces Mariam to stay calm and get used to it.

Seriate....
