Ngumbara Love

Part 4 Bad memories

Nightmares of the past 1

Fadal Gashani and his family spent the holidays at the beach. Little Andhra was so happy with the toy in her hand. The eight-year-old skillfully played a small shovel and some prints to make a palace made of sand, he also made towers on each side of the palace.

Unlike what the mother did, the roar of the waves at her feet dissolved the sand on the beach. Although Diana wrote their names several times, it still disappeared swept by sea water. The mother who was pregnant was walking to enjoy the beautiful beach. While watching little Andhra. Tired of walking, he sat on the edge of his son.

"That palace is so beautiful, dear."

"It's a palace for mama, in this palace you won't get hurt." Andhra deliberately spoke like that because, some days he saw his mother often moody and crying. Especially yesterday when going alone with the mother, Andhra witnessed her father being caught alone with another woman.

His mother immediately pulled Andhra's arm to take home. Mom stayed in the room until the afternoon. Until his father came home and managed to persuade his mother to go out to dinner.

Now even though they are on the same beach, but they are seen to keep their distance. Little Andhra probably understood that both of them were having problems. And that Andhra disliked, she only occasionally asked her parents to still stay together.

Farid was still busy with his phone from earlier, he was talking to the person across the street. I don't know what's being talked about.

Until Andhra calls her papa to join.

"Father here dong, play together with Andhra same mama!"

"Dear, this is papa calling me again papa for a minute."

Fadal saw the sadness clearly visible on his wife's face. He also knew if the wife understood now, Fadal spoke to his second wife. Fadal loved Diana his first wife so much, but he also could not let go of his second wife and her affair, Hasma.

Unknowingly, Diana shed her tears. Which woman is unharmed, if at the time of her pregnancy she finds out her husband has another wife. But he must be seen as a solid rock so as not to be crushed by the waves.

"Mama, don't be sad, Andhra promises to always be next to you. Andhra will always take care of mom and sister so that mom is proud to have Andhra."

Diana did not answer anything, she grabbed her child and hugged tightly despite her large belly. Andhra saw the man she called papa seemed to care no more about her mother's condition. That's where Andhra's hatred came from. Andhra's young brain can catch the indifference of her papa who prefers to talk to her phone rather than join them.

"Now we just eat yuk son, call your papa there."

Diana prepared food for them to eat. Picnic events that might make them happy are not for now. Farid was silent no longer paying attention to his wife. Diana tried to press the chest for the pain that had befallen her, for Andhra who looked happy.

"If we often picnic like this must be exciting yes pa." Andhra put bread in her mouth. Farid just silently did not respond to the words of his son, still busy with his phone.

"Darling, if you eat do not talk later you choke you know."

with a bland smile. Andhra was increasingly unhappy with her father's attitude.

The picnic ended after they ate. And fate has written that it was their family's last picnic.

Diana walked over while occasionally holding onto her stomach. The hope that her husband just asks if she is tired, or what you feel, evaporates like a beach breeze.

Diana had lost her husband. She contemplated every single thing that allowed her husband to glance at another woman, perhaps because of her face that was no longer beautiful, or because of her body that swelled up because of her second pregnancy, or perhaps also because of being pregnant, or maybe also because of being pregnant, her husband was not satisfied with her body. All the questions that raged on made Diana walk shabbily.

"Mama, mama's okay."

Andhra held her mother's body so as not to look good, even though her body is small but she is sure to support her mother's body. At that moment Andhra saw a white shadow like flying over his mother's head.

"Papa, papa, papa, help mama pa," Andhra's voice was lost in the earth's swallow. Fadal did not look at it. Diana's eyes returned to glass.

"Here son, you help mama yuk," walked again in a limp.

"How long have you been walking, let's go home. In an hour I have to go out of town to do the job."

"Why can you suddenly like this mas, did you not also promise to go to Dufan later tonight?"

"His name is also the work of ma, it is also for all of us," replied indifferently.

"But mas."

"Don't spoil it."

Diana massaged her chest repeatedly, tears that almost fell she held back with all her might. Several times raised his face so that the water did not spill.

'It hurts so bad, so sick, you're too cruel.'

Arriving home, Fadal went straight to his bathroom and prepared to leave.

"Mas, why is it so sudden a mas, can not be delayed until tomorrow," Diana furiously packed her husband's clothes.

"It's actually yesterday ma, it's just that I haven't had the time to convey it to mama."

"No papa said yet, even papa never spoke to mama. What's mom's fault, what makes papa like this? is it because my mom is no longer beautiful?"

Diana said what stuck in her heart.

"Mama, don't start ya ma, papa wants to go to work, that's also for the needs of all of us."

"Go pa, go, and if after this we don't meet, then don't let papa hope you'll come back. Maybe the love I have is so strong for my dad and that strong mom will take care of him. But if you choose to go, the pain is as big as your love."

"Why is my mom talking like that?" start leaking.

"What can you do, you have been entangled in papa's love and fallen so deep, that you are difficult to get up again, even just

my mother could not even turn away. When papa still goes hand in hand with mama, mama feels able to face the storm though, but when papa has turned mama it feels unable to anymore even just breathe air, all feels congested mas, very tight."

Hitting his chest repeatedly, the hunting breath made him even more sick.

"I'm sorry papa ma, forgive papa."

In front of his wife.

"It's too late pa, mama is willing if papa is with her, go," the soft voice sounded firm but singing.

"Mama, I will decide to be with my mom, and divorce the woman. But before that happens, let papa go today ma, because it all depends today. If successful, our family will be intact again as usual. Papa promised ma, but I beg you, mama always supported papa."

Convince his wife, and kiss her forehead gently. Behind that door Andhra heard every conversation his parents had, at too young an age, trying to understand what it meant.  His hands clenched tightly.

That day Fadal went out of town. Andhra and Diana let go of Fadal at the door.  Andhra went in and dropped her body on the bed. His eyes began to shut, fatigue made him sleep quickly.

Not long before the sound of the door being pounded loudly. Andhra is not fully conscious. Andhra rubbed her eyes before standing up. When he opened the door, Andhra immediately found his bodyguard putting his index finger in his mouth. Gunshots echoed inside the house. Some falling objects sound obvious.

Heru closed Andhra's mouth, both of them sneaking past the two people in black. Arriving at the warehouse, Andhra was put to the ceiling by Heru. After that, Heru boarded guiding Andhra to follow him.
