My army my Hero

Episode 16's

"Is it just because of this that you leave your mother? Mother is never guilty well, father also knows mother is a good person, she always obeys what her husband says even though her life is a bet, just because of Aunt Novita's last request, Tante, you never found it, but you never let go of your mother!"

I peaked, my heart really hurt, if there was a spear stuck in my heart maybe I could hold it back more than this reality.

Mother had fought for her own life because of father, she raised me alone without a husband, she always covered this matter from her son, she bore herself every pain she suffered.

But behold, father could leave mother only because of the ridiculous request of Aunt Novita, the request of no mercy, the request of his evil ego.

"I'm sorry son" Dad's voice shook.

"Arsyad won't forgive me if I haven't asked my mom!"

"Dad's not ready yet"

"Not ready because what?" I held back my wrath, wanting to change my voice with a punch, but he was still my father anyway.

"But not ready to meet your mother, I'm too ashamed to bear Novita's crimes on your mother, father, I feel so guilty about it, I can't stand up to your mother, you're right son, I'm so sorry, your mother is a good person, she doesn't deserve that kind of treatment from me or anyone else, but..."

"But what?"

Dad was silent, his head was getting lowered, his hands were the same as my hands clenched holding something.

"You also know what your father's last treatment was for your mother, 25 years ago, after I read Novita's notes, I was dying to cut off this hand, the hand that suddenly floated hit your mother's delicate cheek, the hand that easily pushed her down, when I knew she was pregnant, but I didn't care, it was sad, angry, scared, scared, all mixed into one, the father still can't believe Novita's only father's sister left the father quickly"

"And you're throwing your anger at mom? That so?" My voice started to growl.

Dad looked down deeper, his voice completely changed due to sobs that could no longer be contained. I looked to my side, Grandfather was not much different, he continued to wipe his tears using both hands. My anger that overflowed for a moment was like a fire doused in water.

"Meet mother well, she is still waiting for father until now, do not make mother continue to endure pain because of longing. Arsyad will accompany, reassuring mother that father has no intention to leave her"

"Do you deserve it, son?"

"Unfortunately, all of that will remain in the past, Arsyad please well, meet mother, return her happiness which is still pending, reassure her father still loves her very much"

"You want to help dad?"

"Arsyad will help yah, convince mom that you've changed"

Dad is really not what he used to be, an arrogant man, a man who is confident in all his plans, a man who is brave with whoever he is facing, he said, a man of great wealth, a man who feels all his desires will be obtained easily.

Now dad is just like a loser who can only look at the woman he loves from a distance.

"Well, we're leaving tonight too, sooner maybe better, before this good plan is replaced by another plan" said the grandfather, after hearing the father's statement.

"I agree" I said, father standing up, walking towards me, hugging back tightly.

"Thank you son, you're here"
