Arkana delivered Seroja and Pak Anwar to his home after checking his condition at a nearby hospital. His condition is still weak, but Mr. Anwar is reluctant if he has to stay at the hospital. By force, Seroja asked the doctor so that his father could be outpatient at home.
The car stopped right in front of Mr. Anwar's small house. Arkana and Seroja let the man into the house. Mr. Anwar asked them to take him to a guest seat. He wanted to talk further with both.
Arkana looked around, she felt quite disgusted and sad to see the contents of the house that looked unkempt with bottles of liquor scattered everywhere. However, this time Arkana tried to cover it from the owner of the house.
" I'm sorry your house is so dirty and messy. You are dirty and happy to drink. Especially since your wife and children left home. " Anwar sir is self-conscious.
Seroja feels guilty to the father, but if not, he must have married the old bandot.
" I'm sorry Seroja, sir "sorry that girl.
Mr. Anwar smiled faintly while holding the shoulder of his eldest daughter.
" It's not all your fault, son. Father's fault for making you a debt relief tool. Father was indeed an irresponsible parent to the family. "the man wiped away the tears that showed his deepest regret.
" That day I found your mother's wallet that had fallen off. I didn't think there was an ATM from the Pramudya family. I am so happy to use the money to get drunk and gamble. But a while later, I felt like there was something missing in my life. Until a few months ago, Mr. Alvin began to make me realize that I had been a fool all along for wasting my wife and children. I'm sorry, son. Your life must have suffered so much because of the Father all this time."
The man hugged his daughter, his net having now been soaked by tears. If time can be repeated, he wants to be able to improve. But how else? Rice has become porridge, regret always comes too late.
So does Seroja's heart, it hurts to imagine what happened years ago. Since childhood, he seemed to lose the figure of a father.
The man was too often outside, drunk and gambling had become his daily food. However, he was always taught to be independent by his mother. The woman hoped that she would not depend on others like her mother who still depended on what the Pramudya family had given her.
How else would you like? The father never worked, he always asked his wife for money for harm. His mother still had to work odd jobs to meet the needs of everyday life. He hopes that some of the money given by the Pramudya family can be used to send their children as high as possible in order to become successful people.
But in fact the father is increasingly becoming so, he even dared to owe to loan sharks just to obey his hobby. At its peak, he sold the house and lastly he almost sold his daughter to the old bandot.
Fortunately Seroja managed to escape with her mother at that time. Despite the weight of life in the city, but it was better for him than seeing his 18-year-old daughter married by someone the same age as his own father.
Now the pain in his heart seemed to disappear since his meeting with his father again. The man had changed, his views were so sincere as to describe a father's affection for his son. He truly regrets his past actions.
The girl returned the embrace of the father, she also shed tears. This time, though, it was the tears of happiness she felt. Happy to find the figure of the father he had longed for.
Arkana was moved by the sight before her. He now realized how lucky it was to have parents who were so affectionate and attentive to him.
The two let go of hugs, now Mr. Anwar turned to look at Arkana.
" Sorry, Son. Now you know our family problems. Oh yes, earlier I thank you for your help. You really do have a big hand in our lives. If you can tell, where are you really from?" Mr. Anwar began to find out about the young man.
Arkana smiled kindly,
" I am Arkana, I am the eldest son of the Pramudya family. You do not need to thank me, we also have a big debt to Seroja. He has helped me a lot and has saved Papa's life as well a few months ago" Arkana explained politely.
Seroja was quite surprised, it could also be that the man praised her in front of others. He usually makes fun of her.
Mr. Anwar was shocked, he did not expect the young man to be the son of the family who had supported him all this time.
" But is it true that my daughter is your future wife? " this question was the crux of all the questions he wanted to know. Because the young man claimed that he was the future husband of Seroja when at the Juragan Jarot place this morning.
" no. " " yes. "
The two men gave different answers. Mr. Anwar was confused by it. Arkana stomped on the girl's feet to follow what Arkana said.
" Yes, Sir. We plan to get married. Seroja was just embarrassed to admit it. Isn't that right, baby? " Arakana stepped on her foot again. He glared at the girl for not understanding what she meant.
Mr. Anwarpun is still waiting for an answer from his daughter. He wanted to hear it directly from his daughter's mouth.
" Seroja? Is it true, Young Master? "
This time, however confused, he did not understand the lie, especially what the man was planning. Arkana stomped her foot back when the girl did not respond.
" I, yes, Father. We are planning to get married "he replied doubtfully. He breathed a rough breath because he was upset so he lied to his father.
When Mr. Anwar asked further, Arkana interrupted him immediately.
" Father maybe tomorrow morning we should go to town. Bu Eneng always asked his daughter, Seroja ran away from the mansion yesterday. Mama is worried about her declining health condition because she is very worried about Seroja's condition. " Arkana conveyed what her mother had told her in a private message.
Mr. Anwar was again surprised by it,
" Well, is your mother sick, Seroja? " tanyanya was worried.
Serojapun tells about stomach and lung diseases suffered by his mother. He told how difficult it was to live in the city at that time because he did not have enough money to treat his mother. To the extent that he decided to stop college because he had to find money for daily living expenses, the cost of treatment for the mother was also the cost of his sister's school, Intan.
Mr. Anwar increasingly regretted his actions, he only realized how suffered his son and wife because of his actions.
Seroja clasped his father's hand, and,
" Sir, will you come with us to the city? We can stay together while at Mr. Alvin's house." beg the father.
Mr. Anwar bowed his head in shame for his actions so far.
" No, Son. You go first so your mother doesn't worry about you." declined Mr. Anwar.
" but? Are you in unhealthy condition now? " Anyone worries about his father.
" You don't have to worry, you can take care of yourself. You want to reflect on your past mistakes and try to reorganize your life. Once you are ready, you will definitely meet you. "said Mr. Anwar, he was afraid that his wife would not forgive his mistakes so far.
Seroja tried to woo back, but Pak Anwar's decision was unanimous. He could not go with them to town. She had to leave her father tomorrow morning.
