Alenta, who woke up moments after Nick left, can now only sit on the bed with an empty look. Not weak so he could not escape the painful past, only there was one thing that Alenta had been hiding as much as possible, even he still denied as if it had never happened. Back when he was a kid maybe he didn't think too much about it because he still didn't understand what was really going on. But his growing age from year to year made him realize that his childhood was the hardest and the time he did not want to repeat.
In fact, Alenta can stand on his own feet as well because of his efforts that hit the situation. Elementary school to graduate college which will usually be attended by both parents when he gets the champion to graduate, in fact, not even once the figure of the father came to fulfill his obligations. Mother, the woman is the most powerful woman according to Alenta. A few years ago when she graduated high school, her mother came to school carrying a bouquet of flowers with bleeding knees and elbows, and his temple also bled even though he had hidden it by continuing to wipe the blood coming out of his temple. A mother who would not feel pain to fulfill her obligations, and to see her daughter smile, she said, she was so willing to come up with a smiley lips as she was in pain after being dragged down by a motorcycle while leaving to attend a graduation ceremony at Alenta high school.
Then why did he have to fulfill the wishes of his father who had ignored him all along? True, he is a human who should have a soft heart and try to forgive his father's mistakes that are considered to be the right thing. Have you ever wondered what it's like to be Alenta? She used to ignore her mother, blame her mother for her father leaving her, she was also always angry when her mother forbade to meet her Father. Until that day came, the day she saw her mother smiling widely, carrying a bouquet of flowers with her way of trouble as her knees were bleeding. That day, that second also Alenta was like being hit by a giant concrete. Mother, the woman did everything she could to make Alenta happy, accepting the moment of blame, always there whenever Alenta needed to not want Alenta to feel a lack of affection.
Alenta held tightly to the edge of the bed with eyes that could no longer bear the cries. Maybe his father misses him sometimes, but why not even see how he is doing? Why not come when everyone is gossiping about his mother for having children but not having a husband? Then, where is the figure of Dad when he was bullied his friends for not having a Dad? Where is the man who said he had been sick for two days and kept calling his name when Alenta was in a high fever until he did not wake up for four days? Why is he acting like he misses Alenta so much now, but Alenta doesn't seem to miss him?
" If you want to die, just die, don't involve me anymore. " Said Alenta bowed to let his tears fall. Alenta is indeed a tough figure, he is also disciplined, also diligent and smart. But he wasn't always perfect either, and this was one of Alenta's shortcomings as an ordinary human being. Vindictive, also not easy to give an apology, or accept apologies from anyone when he feels unimportant.
" You, your mother, and that woman have inflicted wounds that I cannot forget. So let me hate you until I'm satisfied, at least until I feel like I don't know you anymore. "
Alenta got up from the bed, he walked up to the window in Nick's room, then opened the curtain. Alenta wiped his tears, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, hopefully reducing his sadness.
It was a dark and cloudy night, just like it was that night. The night he ran away from his mother's house to come to his grandmother's house, or his father's mother. On Alenta's way there, he who was still a child and did not have the money to ride the ojek can only accept it when heavy rain flushed his body, even the flash and the noisy lightning above the sky did not make him feel afraid. Arriving at the grandmother's house, the first thing Alenta saw and felt was a huge disappointment. Her grandmother sat in the yard holding Alenta, hugging occasionally while laughing with Talita. He pecked his head and said sweet things that he himself had never heard from his grandmother's mouth.
My most beautiful, sweetest granddaughter, why do you make grandma want to always pinch your cheek? Sleeping with grandma today? Grandma will tell you a story.
Alenta hiccups under a tree without anyone seeing him. She wants to be hugged, kissed, pampered like Talita, she also wants to feel what it's like to sleep with her grandmother by hearing the fairy tales her grandmother would tell her. It did not stop there, because before long Rahayu and Mr. Baskoro came out to bring Talita inside.
" Mom, it's raining. We'll go in Talita, right? He's very easy with the flu. " Terr Baskoro said as he lifted Talita's body and kissed her forehead.
" Mom, I'll be bothered later. Oh yes, tomorrow we will take a walk to the beach, how about tomorrow invite Alenta only? " Said Rahayu's Mother.
" Alenta was very unhappy with the beach, so he wouldn't be happy to go there. " Said Mr. Baskoro.
" Alenta was very spoiled and picky after all. Eat picky, want to sleep also bother, some time ago he wet the bed. It is better not to be invited than to bother later. " Timpal the grandmother.
" Alenta is a little girl, Ma'am, Jai, it's natural to wet the bed. " Said Mr. Baskoro.
" What is a child? He was five years old when he came here. Look Talita, he just did not wet the bed anymore, this afternoon he wanted a small water fruit also said first. "
" Talita is indeed very obedient, she is also very easy to understand when we advise. " Said Rahayu's Mother.
Hows it? Does anyone want to be Alenta? No right?
After the incident, Alenta returned to his mother's house. Indeed, the distance of their homes is not so far, just twenty minutes on foot. When Alenta arrived home, his mother was not home. While waiting for his mother to come home, Alenta could only sit waiting on the porch of the house with all his body shivering cold. Why not go in? It was because Alenta's mother was looking for Alenta and the door was locked.
Soon her mother returned home crying and calling Alenta by name. His mother looks chaotic, his whole body is wet, even his mother also does not wear footwear for the sake of looking for him. The day after the incident Alenta was hot, even until seizures several times, and four days also Alenta was unconscious.
Seriate.
