My son, not my son

Chapters 15. Because of you

While elsewhere, far away was where now Fiya and Arion were. About 8 hours drive by bus.

"Why? Why should I be the one doing all this? I didn't make a mistake, I didn't! But why should I be responsible for the wrong I did not do. This is not fair!"

The woman was angry, venting all the emotions that had been held back all this time. He had already tried to keep it all in his heart, perhaps this was the time when the anger was overflowing.

"Because of you, I have to endure all this. You knew? Can you just shut up anyway? Can't make a fuss, right? My headache heard your voice crying. I gave her milk. Specially? Huh uh?" screech the woman.

"Why do you have to be in my life? You think this is all easy? Huh huh? You think I'm ready for all this? You spoiled child, crybaby. Can you shut up, right?" screeches again.

He spoke out from earlier. Until his body shakes in anger.

While Arion - the woman's husband, tried to hug her from the side. Trying to calm his beloved wife. Fortunately, Fiya was not hurt or rude to baby Nawal.

"Oh, sweetie, be patient. Calm down.... "

"Silent brother said? Patience sister say? Was it any less quiet during this time? Was I impatient all this time? I have always been the one to bear the mistakes he made. And look at this! He who does, he who delights with his one-night love. Am I the one who bears his guilt? I'm tired, brother!"

Hiks hyks

The woman was crying that. Women who have always looked tough in the face of everything. Yes, he is Kaifiya. Know no? Ever since he took baby Nawal away with him, away from his birth mother, of course, he still harbors anger.

She rarely ignores baby Nawal. He won't change his diaper, he won't give the baby milk. He let it go when the baby was crying. Fortunately, there is Arion the patient husband and he who always takes care of baby Nawal. Even if I can be honest, he's not ready.

It feels so sudden. Suddenly she had to take care of a baby, which she did not know. Mentally, he is not ready. Financially, he also felt that he was not enough.

Just now he, Arion design from where he worked first, since Fiya decided to take baby Nawal away with them. While Fiya also, just graduated as a candidate for state apparatus. Incidentally, the placement was right there, where they were living.

For some reason, today everything that Fiya had been quiet all this time exploded already. Turns out right, something that was harbored wasn't good. Feels tight in the chest if left alone, especially already mountainous.

In the past, when Ela, her mother Babay Nawal decided to go to the land sebrang. Fiya, don't allow it. So did mama Basagita. Butwhat? Ela whined, roared like a child, and even threatened her mother, she would kill herself if she was not given permission to travel to a neighboring country.

Finally what? It was Fiya who took care of everything, Ela's departure by being forced to go to the other country.

With a heavy heart, he went here and there, taking care of passports, plane tickets, all the files of Ela, Fiya was also assigned by the father - Rudi for it.

He was actually reluctant and heavy to do it, but it was heartless to see his father and mother quarrel just because of the matter of Ela's departure. Fiya did not want their family to be spoiled just because of the desire of Ela who somehow really interested in the country.

"Here it is, I don't want to take care of him. I'm tired, I'm tired. I was told to keep giving up and understanding. As for me, who knows how I am now?" said Fiya with fury.

Forced by Arion, he removed the bottle from the baby's tiny mouth, then held the baby, trying to calm him down. He wants to be angry with Fiya, but back he thinks. Can anger be solved with anger?

The marriage that had been on the stage for five years, until now they had never quarreled. Even just this time he saw Fiya getting angry like this. He also did not want to tarnish his marriage with quarrels. Where if the wife is angry, emotional, the husband can only be patient, soft to face the wife.

That household, it's not as smooth as the highway. There's a fuss here and there. But it doesn't have to make us despair, does it? In life there are times of ups and downs. That's where we learn, demanded for how to behave facing all that calmly. However, can we be calm in dealing with a problem that we think is very heavy?

As an ordinary human being, it is natural to be angry, to laugh, to cry, but, remember everything that is excessive is not good. The results can be disappointing and even painful.

That's probably how Ela feels now. Too in love with a man, until the man snatches something valuable to him, Ela instead willingly give it.

Or so with Fiya. He had been pampering his brother all this time. From the beginning, he always relented, always obeying the request of his brother.

"Honey, you can't be angry like this, let alone vent everything to Babu Nawal. He doesn't know anything, honey. He's not wrong."

"But brother, because he has to I bear it all," said Fiya.

Arion felt that his wife had calmed down after a moment of anger - angry with Baby Nawal earlier. It turned out that he had not yet dissipated his anger.

"Stay me, baby. Baby Nawal is not wrong. The wrong ABG is his parents. Doing without thinking. If he could choose, he did not want to be born into the world in such a state. So, you and I, you have to take care of this baby as your mother asks. Do you remember Mom's message?"

Instantly, Fiya fell silent. He remembered the flashback when the mother - Basagita, begged him, to take baby Nawal away to cover up the disgrace of her family.

When I talk about my mother, whose heart does not melt. Who can make a mother's heart beg, wounded by the actions of her own child. Stain his mother's name, smear the family name. What could Fiya do with all that? Sure didn't.

Kaifiya is not a stone-hearted child who can ignore the feelings of the mother. He finally accepted the mother's request to take baby Nawal away from her brother's life. To cover up the disgrace of his family. To defend her brother's marriage.

Fiya was crying in her husband's arms. For the soft-hearted Arion, calm. He faced everything calmly and patiently.

"We have accepted my mother's request. We've brought baby Nawal all the way here. This is where we are now. Ready not ready, we have to take care of him. Inevitably, we must look after him."

"We teach him this lesson, suppose he is our son. So from now on we, me and you have to learn everything from zero. I know it's hard, but it's not wrong we tried, right? Let's make peace with the situation." The long words from her husband were really able to calm Fiya's heart.

Kaifiya was still crying in her husband's arms.
