My army my Hero

Episode 25's

Two days after the wedding of Intan and my sister, everything returned to normal, back to the usual wrinkle, which is different now we live together, me, mother, Intan and my sister. Dad hasn't come back yet, he's really waiting for mom to be ready to meet him. Grandpa and Grandma are back in Canada, there are some businesses that they can't stay in. It's okay, being able to see them is matchless happiness.

That night the moon shone bright. I was sitting on the balcony near my room, which is what I used to do a lot. Pondered under the sky. Looking at the small, glowing ornaments. My heart has not made peace with the events I am facing right now. Really can't. Is life always like this? Cruel. Tega takes away the happiness of those who always do good. Mother was never wrong but she had to accept great suffering. I never made a mistake either, but look at what I accept now.

"Dragon"

That's Intan's voice. He called from below. I should have kept quiet, I should not have responded, now I am Arsyaf, Brother calls only to Arsyad, but my body reflexes by itself, I wake up from my fall staring at the sky.

"Dad" I answered.

Intan looked at me sharply, people were wondering, he kept looking at me confused, I was also confused, why I had to answer, why I had to answer a call that was no longer for me. Intan still looked at me fixedly.

"Dear Ma'af makes you wait a long time" Arsyaf came out, approached Intan. As he was about to embrace it, he paused.

"What are you looking at?" Ask Arsyaf.

I quickly re-energized my body. Hope Arsyaf doesn't know what Intan is looking at.

"I was staring at the moon. Tonight shines beautifully" he replied.

"When was he good at lying?" Tanyaku.

"Ah you're right, tonight is so charming, but I think it's still commonplace" Arsyaf said.

"Why?" Ask Arsyaf.

"Because the woman in front of me is more charming than the moon tonight" he said. Intan smiled. I-i heard.

"Let's go now" Arsyaf took Intan away. I didn't know where they were, but hearing the jokes they both got back made my heart ache. I should have done it. I'm better at making Intan smile, better at making Intan happy. But from now on I can only be a spectator.

Look, is this a fair life? The question ambushed me tonight, filling the niches of my head. Make the days pass slow. Now I have to wait, waiting for the life God gave me.

"Come on, son, you'll catch a cold" I woke up, the first woman I loved the most was right behind me.

"Mother"

"Just relax, ma'am"

"Come in, you'll catch a cold"

"Ah mother, I've grown up, why did you always forbid me to be outside"

"What?" I was confused to hear my statement. Ah I'm not aware. I'm bored again.

"Ah I mean, my dad used to be like that, always forbidding me from being out at night"

"That's because dad's good, he's worried about you"

"Mom admitted it, then why...?".

"Not yet son, not yet the time, I'm still not ready to see your father back"

"But mom, I'm waiting too"

"You don't know how much my mother's suffered over the years"

"I know, I know everything, I know my mother's suffering all this time, that's why Arsyaf came here ma'am, Arsyaf wants to reverse my mother's happiness. At least I want to see the woman who has given birth to me happy, get what she wants. That's all mom. Please ma'am explain everything"

"No son, it's not as easy as it says, the mother's heart has not been able to accept it all so easily, it still hurts too much to remember the past"

"But mom..."

"Come in, I don't want you to get sick, and we don't have to talk about this anymore"

I let out a breath. But it's not that easy, I'll give up. That night I no longer cared about the moon, no matter the shining star. I must return to my original goal of restoring the happiness of a mother who is still buried. Wait ma'am, I will no longer care about my life for Intan, let him already belong to Arsyaf, but for you I will not let it happen just like that ma'am.
