My boss turned out to be my Background Dad
Chapter 18's
..."So, starting next Monday you'll be working at that big company with Siska?" ask Hapsari. After about five minutes Ayu explained to her mother....
..."Right, Mom," said Ayu holding her mother's hand. "Mother is happy, Ayu works in a big company. That way, we don't have to worry anymore about the cost of the mother's treatment."...
...Hapsari could only be silent. ...
...Heard his daughter was so struggling to find a job in order to pay for her medical expenses. All Hapsari felt now was a painful and bitter feeling. ...
...She felt so useless as a mother. Letting her child struggle alone, while herself can only be a burden. ...
...Sari's chest felt claustrophobic at the thought of her daughter's fate in the future. Must constantly take care of his sick mother....
...What is the fate of a household without supporting pillars. Without the presence of a man in the family....
...Hapsari remembers her husband....
...Mas Aji's....
...Where are you, Mas? ...
...We needyou. Our daughter needs you now....
..."Ma! Mother why?!" Ayu exclaimed in panic as soon as she saw her mother sweating and also pale. Her breathing doesn't look good....
...Siska also immediately stood up, trying to rub the back of Aunt Sari....
..."I'm sorry mom, son." Hapsari said with a gasp. "because of mom, you have to work really hard. I'm just being your burden. Forgive your mother, son."...
..."What are you talking about! Ayu never thought mom was a burden." Ayu said it seriously. Get ready to bring her mother back inside....
...Ayu did not understand why her mother became like this....
...Hapsari squeezed the hand of his daughter he was holding. Then said with deep bitterness. "If your father were here. If your father had been found and could have gathered with us."...
...Ayu was getting anxious to see her mother like this. He immediately wanted to cry....
..."Nevermind, Mom. Don't talk about that first. Let Ayu and Siska help you get back to the ward. So that the mother can immediately be examined by a doctor."...
...Ayu called Siska who seemed to be off guard. "Sis! Come" ...
..."A.ah! Yeah, all right, Come on." ...
...Siska who quickly regained consciousness helped Ayu push the wheelchair. However, the words that just thrown aunt Sari had not disappeared from her mind....
...'What did aunt Sari mean earlier said that Ayu's father had not been found. Ayu's father isn't dead'...
...Although Siska was very curious, she knew that now was not the time to ask....
...They must immediately check the condition of Aunt Sari....
...In the hospital hallway to the other side, Arga Wijaya who intended to go to the doctor's room, stopped her steps, turned her head in the other direction....
..."What's up, sir?" ask the assistant who followed him from behind. Seeing his boss suddenly stop....
...Arga frowned. An uncomfortable feeling suddenly struck his heart. I don't know what really happened. ...
...Hearing a question from her assistant, Arga temporarily put those emotions aside and continued walking. "none. Let's go."...
...The assistant nodded, walking following his boss....
...Ayu's mother is being examined by a doctor. While Ayu and Siska waited anxiously from the side....
...Ayu asked as soon as the doctor finished examining her mother. "How, Doc. My mother's situation?"...
...The doctor kept his stethoscope, saying, "Your mother had only mild shock. Not a big deal. Tell him not to think too hard and stress less."...
..."Okay, Doc."...
...Ayu nodded and thanked. I saw the doctor who left. Ayu looked at her mother's weak look after the injection, her mother regained her composure....
..."I'm sorry, son. I'm back to worry you, " said Hapsari weakly....
...He did not expect that it would suddenly become like this. So that makes his daughter and also his daughter's friends worried....
...Ayu said, "It's okay, Mom. The important thing is that you are always healthy. I heard the doctor say, don't think too much."...
...Ayu then asked, "How is mom feeling now. Are there any uncomfortable feelings?"...
..."There is no discomfort. Mom's just feeling a little thirsty now."...
..."Uumm.."...
...Ayu looked at the empty glass, intending to refill it. However, Ayu suddenly changed her mind. Looking at her mother, she asked, "Mom wants fruit juice, let Ayu buy it. Because the doctor said, fruit juice is good for the health of the mother."...
...Hapsari initially wanted to refuse. Because he thinks it's just a waste of money. But immediately agreed upon hearing the drink can nourish the body...
..."Alright, Son. After that hurry back," Hapsari said. ...
..."Aye, Madam."...
..."Don't forget me too, Yu. Fruit juice," said Siska....
..."Sure oes. How could I forget you," Ayu said smilingly. After that he came out of the room. ...
...Siska accompanied Ayu's mother. He sat down on a chair by the bedside. Watching Ayu's mother lying down....
...His heart struggled, whether to ask him or not what was meant by the words of aunt Sari in the park....
..."What was? You seem to be thinking of something." Hapsari asked when she saw Siska's tangled expression....
...Siska awakens to hear aunt Sari's question. He clumsily replied, "Em.Aunty, in the garden.-"...
..."You want to ask me about Ayu's father? " Hapsari guessed it. ...
...Siska nodded uncomfortably. ...
...Does it seem rude to ask that. After all, it's someone else's personal matter. But.. Let's open someone else, he's still his best friend. ...
...In the midst of his turmoil, Siska heard Aunt Sari say, "Actually, there is nothing to keep secret."...
...Siska quickly focused her attention on listening....
...Hapsari continued, "The car that Ayu's father was driving at that time did indeed enter the abyss. When the police found him, the car was damaged and burned down. But they found no bodies or injured people nearby. The police assume that Ayu's father has died eaten by wild animals because the area where the accident occurred was near the forest. Auntie does not believe it. Before the aunt saw Mas Aji's body herself, the aunt would never believe she was dead."...
...Sari's eyes turned red as soon as she recalled the events of that day. An event that has taken away all his happiness....
...Siska was so stunned by what Aunt Sari had just said. Siska only knows that Ayu's father died in a car accident, but she only finds out that there is still a story behind it....
...Seeing aunt Sari who returned was overwhelmed by grief, made Siska become very guilty. "Sorry, Aunt. Because of Siska's curiosity, the aunt had to recall the events of that time."...
...Hapsari shook his head slowly, wiping away the tears from the corner of his eyes....
..."No, it's not your fault" Hapsari said. "Auntie wants to say it. Aunty just wanted you to know that Ayu is not a child without a father. Aunty does not want her only friend to think of her as weak and worthy of pity."...
..."No, aunt is wrong," said Siska, denying. "Siska never thought Ayu was weak. Quite the contrary, Siska had never met a woman as strong as Ayu. He studied, worked. He also has to face many problems in his life. Indeed, Siska sometimes pity Ayu. But Siska also knew, Ayu never wanted to be pitied. He could not possibly live from the pity of others."...
...Siska said until there, looking earnestly into the eyes of aunt Sari. "Tante should know how strong Ayu is. Aunty would be so proud to have a daughter like her. Because Siska feels proud to be friends with aunty's daughter."...
...Hapsari nodded with haru, patting the hand held by Siska who did not know when. Hapsari replied, "Tante is proud, aunty is very grateful Ayu is a aunt and has a friend like you who always supports her. All you can say now is thank you."...
..."Aunty doesn't need to thank me" Siska said. "Tante just needs to get back to health and cook a good meal for Siska later, like the auntie used to make."...
...Siska smiled cheerfully after saying that, making Hapsari also smile....
