My madam, my poison
A question
“Why Mom
Sabrina should be angry? I'm just kidding,” said the hijab woman.
“I don't like
I talk so.”
“Bu Sabrina is right
aslo. She ‘kan has no husband. Who may be pregnant. Citizen
others chimed.
“Sorry, my grandson
gotta rest. Today's incident must be enough to make him tired,” said mother.
“Lain times more
be careful, Ma'am. If necessary, the door is always locked so that this incident is not
repeated again,” said one of the residents.
“People gil* it
already in a mental hospital. So our environment is safe,” said mother.
“ Yes already, we
excuse me. Assalamualaikum.”
“Waalaikumsalam.”
Citizens also
leave my boarding place.
Suddenly the mother's gaze was fixed on Fabian who was standing not far from
his car.
“Why don't you
home too?” tanyanya cynic.
“Looks Mom
don't like my presence in this place.”
“After what
you did to my daughter, you still dare to say that?”
“Mother should
thanking me. If it wasn't for me, maybe Lyra wouldn't
congratulations.”
“Gosh. This lyra
your own son. How can you say that? Or you already have
no love to him anymore?” said mother.
“If you can't take care of Lyra well, let me take care of her.”
“Do not support you. What would Lyra be in your young wife's hands? Could-can my grandson die silly.”
“However Lyra is my biological daughter, and I have rights over her.”
“We'll see at the trial later. I can assure you Lyra's custody will fall in Zura.”'s hands
“Not necessarily, Mom. My income as a manager is many times greater than Zura
just a tailor.”
“Oh, so now you're humbling Zura? Basic men have no brains!”
“Already, Mom. Don't argue anymore. Do not let the neighbors come back here because they hear you guys noisily,” I said.
“These self-destructive men started.”
From my mother, my view turned to Fabian.
“You better leave now before there is a commotion here,”.
“Remember! Once again Lyra experienced a life-threatening incident, I will not hesitate to take it from you guys!” threaten Fabian's.
“You don't have to worry. This incident will not happen again. That gil* guy anyway
no longer live in this place.”
“Good, I hold your talk. Excuse me, Assalamualaikum.”
“Waalaikumsalam.”
Fabian then got into his car. Not long after that car left my boarding house.
“Mother wonder, why you can fall in love with male models so. His face is indeed
pretty handsome, but his nature makes me easy to ride blood,” said mother for a moment
after we entered the house.
“Formian was good, Mom. I don't know what made it turn out this way,” I said.
“Fabian can not stand the temptation of women.”
“Already, Mom. Maybe there is no match between us anymore. Our principles are different. That's why I decided to give up and leave
leaving it.”
“Lyra sleeping, mommy put her to bed first in room.”
Mom got out of the living room and went into my room.

“Yesterday I met Fatimah,” I said in between our dinner.
“Oh yes. Is there anything important you're talking about?”
“Ehm, yes, Mom. This is about Brother Darren.”
“Why with your sister?”
“Fatimah suspects that brother Darren is having an affair with another woman.”
“this is your guess, Mom. I hope that assumption is not proven. Darren's sister has a child
woman, where might she do so.”
The mood was silent for a moment.
“Sorry, Mom. Can I ask you something?”
“What do you want to ask?”
“Ehm, are Brother Darren and brother Maureen the biological children of Mom and dad?” tanyaku who suddenly made the mother surprised until she was choked by the food that had just passed through her throat.
I quickly poured water into a glass and gave it to my mother.
Strange, why do you look so panicked to hear that question? Is there something he's keeping from me?
“Why do you ask that?”
“Do you know, brother Darren had not admitted me as his sister when we were reunited some time ago. When I asked him why, he turned out to be
holding a grudge against me because I feel like mom and dad are differentiating treatment
to him. Brother Darren feels father and mother are not being fair to him. And concerning
the fire that broke out in our house a dozen years ago, I feel
there was an intervention by brother Darren and brother Maureen in it,”.
Mom stopped eating for a moment, her face now looks so serious.
“How can Darren and Maureen think father and mother are different to them? Of course they are the biological children of father and mother. It's just, ..”
“Why, Mom?”
“Our family business has been in a slump since mom gave birth to Maureen. Our family is always in debt and your father's company is on the verge of collapse.
After you are born, everything changes 360 degrees. Your father's company
growing rapidly even became a row of bona fide companies at that time. Our
to regard my presence as the bearer of good fortune in our family.
That's why we treat you like a princess,”.
“However Brother Darren and brother Maureen are father and mother's children as well. I should be fair to them. Did you ever think, if Mom's attitude was unfair
and it was my father who ultimately made a disaster for our family. Subsequent to
my seventeenth birthday party, I accidentally heard a chat
those who intend to get rid of me from our home.”
“Gosh! Is it true that you said that?”
“It is useless that I lie.”
“Lantas, what does the fire have to do with your two brothers? Are they the ones who
burning our house?”
I breathe heavily.
“They did not use their own hands to get rid of me from our house.”
“What do you mean?”
“That night the lights in my room suddenly went out. I also lighted the candle as a light. It was then that I saw the shadow of someone from the side of my room. Out of curiosity, I checked it out. I don't know exactly who that guy is. Suddenly, he smothered my mouth and pulled me out of the room. I
trying to put up a fight by holding on to the window curtains. Vaaa,
the window curtain actually struck the fire on the candle that was on a table located near the bed. From there the fire occurred until finally devoured our house,”, I said.
“Bigger! It turned out that my own son caused destruction in our family. Mama should
make calculations with.”
“Already, Mom. The past let it pass. There's no point in us blaming Darren. What happened to our family is not entirely wrong, Darren. If only Mom and Dad had been fair to them, maybe Darren and Maureen didn't
will ever think of having bad intentions for me,” I said.
Mom was silent and seemed to think.
“You're right, Son. What happened to our family was the mother's fault, too. Mother has chosen you who ultimately have bad consequences for our family.”
The mood was silent for a moment.
“Tomorrow mom wants to see Darren. Would you like to accompany mom?” ask mother.
I smile.
“Of course, Bu.”

Next day.
“Mother is afraid,” said mother shortly after we got off the taxi that drove us to Darren's house.
“Why should you be afraid? We came to this house with good purpose ‘not?”
Though initially hesitant, mother finally knocked on the front door of the house. It took a while before someone opened the door for us.
‘’Zura...? Mother..?” Fatimah was quite surprised to see us coming to her house.
“Why didn't you say you were coming to my house?” tanyakanya.
“Mother wants to meet Brother Darren. Is he home?” ask mother.
“Ehm..mas Darren..
“Why with Darren mas? He's at home right?”
I looked at the face of my old friend and my sister-in-law.
“Fatimah, your face why?” my many.
