My army my Hero

My army my Hero
Episode 19's



At 05:00, we arrived at Soekarno Hatta Airport in Jakarta. Out of the airport the men in black uniforms who were ready with five cars behind them, greeted us with disdain. In my heart I wondered, 'when did you instruct them to pick you up?' but other than that, I saw the face of my father was not as happy as the first to leave Singapore.


"Good dad?" I saw a slightly pale face.


"Good dad, I'm just still in doubt" he replied.


"Remain well, whatever happens make this the last chance, Arsyad sure the father is not a coward, the brave nature is still attached, only he is covered in the guilt of the father, then the key is only one, the key is only one, tell me ma'af first" I said, trying to make my father calmer.


"You're right, son, now what you have in your mind is the guilt that continues to roll like a ghost, you'll try your best later, you won't waste this opportunity" I smiled to see my father return with his trust.


The journey from the airport to the house still takes an hour more. The beautiful scenery of Jakarta City, make dad more pensive to look at anything that passes, but I know you do not really see the scenery or even just admire it. Dad's body and soul are different, his body is clearly with me in this car, but father's soul, I'm sure he is imagining if he has faced mother later, whatever he will do.


"Dad"


"Heem"


Dad didn't even answer by looking at me, which meant that my guess was correct.


"Do you know where mom's grandparents are?" I asked, trying to break the heart of my father who was in a frenzy.


"Grandpa and grandma from mom? Ah they're now in Holland son"


"Dutch? What are they doing there, huh? Mom said they'd just come home if I was getting married"


"really? So you haven't met a single time with your grandparents?" I shook my head as a form of answering father's questions.


"Are they really going home after Arsyad is going to be?"


"If your mother says it, it's true"


"But it's still a long time well, can't you pick them up or persuade them to go home, Arsyad is eager to see them?"


"Still a long time or not doesn't it depend on you now? If you get married today, your grandparents will be in front of you, so come on, don't you delay the wedding" Dad said with a smile.


"Ayaaah" I sulked in shame. But also happy because it managed to make father not daydream again.


"Hahaha, but it's true isn't it?"


"Yes maybe. Dad why does Arsyad think in our family story that there are so many weird ones, huh?"


"meaning?"


"Too many puzzles, for example, why did not you immediately tell the truth, why should you wait for grandpa and grandma to come home, Aunt Diana also did not want to tell about father, but also did not want to tell me, he said 'you have to ask your father yourself' Why is that so?"


Dad was silent, took a deep breath, there was a pause before answering my question. I can only wait too.
