My madam, my poison

Seek truth

"Why are you suddenly asking Rayyan?" Maureen asked back.

"Please Brother answer honestly," I urged.

"Actually ... actually ..." Tangis kak Maureen broke again.

"Is it true that Rayyan wasn't your real son?"

"I-I, ..In addition to ruining your household and Fabian, there's one more mistake I've made."

"Are my guesses correct, if Rayyan were, …"

Brother Maureen seemed to let out a heavy sigh before answering my question.

"Your guess is right."

"Ja-ja-di, Rayyan, …"

"Rayyan wasn't my real son and Fabian's mom."

"Astaghfirullahaldzim says. So, where's your real son?"

Maureen lowered her face again.

"Where are your real children?" my insistence.

"I paid the nurse to exchange our baby for another baby."

"Why did you do that?"

"Which mother would accept if her child was born disabled?"

"Disfucked?"

"Yes. Our baby has a physical deficiency in his finger. His right finger is incomplete, while his left finger is excessive."

Of course the confession I just heard from Maureen's mouth left me dumbfounded.

"Astaghfirullahaldzim says. Do you know, what you're doing is a big sin?"

"What would people say if my son is disabled? His whole life would be the subject of ridicule for those around him."

"There is no justification for changing a baby. What Brother is also one of the unlawful acts."

"I know what I did was wrong. But that's the only way I can do it for my family's good name."

"Lantas, did Big Brother ever think about how the fate of that Big Brother's son that you threw away? What if he had a less fortunate fate? The whole life of your son and his new family will live in lies."

"I realized what I was doing was an act of sin. Every day I ask God for forgiveness."

"Did Fabian know this?"

"Mas Fabian forbade me to change our baby. But I insist on doing it."

"It turns out this is the reason why Fabian so easily gave Rayyan to others. He's not your real son."

"I've promised myself that if I get out of this place, I'm going to find Rayyan's whereabouts and hand her back to her birth mother. God willing, I have accepted my biological son."

"Thank God that Brother has realized Brother's mistake. Oh yes, from the characteristics of the Big Brother's son that Brother mentioned earlier, it seems I know where Brother's son."

"Really?"

"Yes. He was one of the students at Lyra school. But, to be sure of the truth, this was quite a difficult thing. Brother never knew the baby's mother's face 'didn't he?"

Brother Maureen seemed to think for a moment until she suddenly mentioned someone's name.

"Suster Siska."

"Who is Sister Siska?"

"I remember his name. The nurse helped me during the birth. He's also the one I paid to exchange my deformed baby for another physically perfect baby boy."

"It just so happened that a friend of mine also worked as a nurse at the MD hospital. She must have known Sister Siska. God willing I will help Brother find where the whereabouts of the Brother's child. May God ease my good intentions."

"I don't know what else to say. After what I did to you, you're still being nice, even helping me figure out where my son is, and the baby Fabian left the cab driver."

"I've forgotten everything that's happened between us. God willing I have forgiven Brother. If later I have found out where the whereabouts of Big Brother's son, I will invite him to stay with me. Brother can pick her up after Brother is free later."

"Thank you, Zura. I'm sorry I ever hurt you. It turns out that your heart is truly sincere" Maureen said. I responded with a smile on my lips.

"Well, today I'm going to see Mayra at the hospital. Hopefully I can get a bright spot where Brother's son is. Is he really Lyra's schoolmate or not."

"Thank you again. I am sure that Allah will repay you with kindness many times over" said Maureen.

"Aamiin's."

"I go first, take good care of Brother. Assalamu'alaikum." I also left that place.

"We're going to the hospital, sir," I told Mr. Amin."

I smiled too.

"Thank God I'm healthy, sir. I went to the hospital because I had to see someone" I said. My personal driver nodded in understanding.

Fifteen minutes later we arrived at the hospital. Thank God, my best friend Mayra got a morning shift.

"Goddess, Zura. Long time no see, now you are very different," said Mayra.

"Nothing has changed, May, I'm still the Azzura you knew before" I said.

"Clearly different. Wherever you used to use a taxi. Now you have a nice car, a private driver."

"Alhamdulillah, May. It's thanks to your do'a too."

"I'm happy now that your life is a success. You can prove to the world that you can have a much better life than when you were with Fabian."

"Alhamdulillah."

"Oh yeah, what do you need to look for me?" ask Mayra.

"There's something important I want to talk to you about."

Suddenly Mayra looked at the circular watch on her wrist.

"When to lunch. What if we had a chat in the cafeteria? You must be hungry too, right?"

I nodded my head in response to agree.

"What do you want to talk about, Ra?" mayra asked in between our lunches.

"Ehm .. actually my intention of coming to this place is to find Sister Siska."

"Are you familiar with Sister Siska?"

"I don't know him at all."

"Lantas, why are you looking for him?"

"There are important matters relating to Sister Siska."

"What's the matter, Ra? Don't confuse me. You said you didn't know Sister Siska, but why are you looking for her?"

"Ehm .. I'm actually investigating something."

"You're like a detective." Mayra chuckles.

"Does Sister Siska still work here?" my many.

"Suster Siska has long since resigned from this hospital. The reason he wanted to focus on his new venture."

Of course the answer that just came out of Mayra's mouth disappointed me. How am I supposed to figure out Maureen's son's whereabouts if Sister Siska is no longer working here?

"What's the matter, Ra?" mayra.

"It's related to Fabian and Maureen's son.

"Who's Maureen?"

"I only found out later that the Karmila I had known was my older sister, Maureen, who had been separated from me for years. Apparently he survived the fire disaster, and performed surgery on part of his face."

"Huh?! You're not kidding, are you 'Ra?"

"You know me, don't you? I'm not the kind of person who likes to joke."

"It's so bad your brother. He entered into the household life of his biological brother, then destroyed it. People don't seem to deserve forgiveness."

I smiled thinly.

"Everybody makes mistakes, right? If God alone is forgiving, why should I, who is only a creation, hold grudges and resentments?"

"If I were you, I'd give it back. No matter if she's my family."

"So, how's this? Sister Siska no longer works here. How am I supposed to get information about Maureen's son?" my many.

"Sister Maureen? What do you mean, Ra?" ask Khumayra curiously.
