NOT AS BEAUTIFUL AS HEAVEN S1/S2

Chapter 53. Mother's Diary

Farhan has been assured by his confidants that his parents are gone. The man could no longer hold back his tears.

The night after the prayer, Farhan went into his parents' room. Ever since he was an adult, he had never again entered that room. He used to sleep with his parents until he finished elementary school.

Farhan turned on the room lights. It seems that the atmosphere is still the same. The room remained neatly arranged because the aunt kept cleaning every day.

On the wall are pictures of him and his parents. Farhan approached the closet. Open the closet door. His parents' clothes were also still neat. Smell of smelling clothes.

Farhan opened the drawer that was in the closet. There's a diary in it. The man took it and took it to bed. Sitting on the edge of the diary book bed in the open sheet.

The mother's diary contains the prayers and holy verses of the Qur'an. Farhan is still opening the only sheets. Until it came to one sheet that caught Farhan's attention.

Farhan read it word for word carefully. There was a feeling of motherhood for Andin, the woman he loved.

"I'm sorry, son. Not that I want to oppose your choice, but the heart of a mother who cannot accept her presence. When you talk to your mom, always ask about your dad's finances. That was very personal. And he told your mother out loud, if we come to propose, we have to bring a lot of money. I don't like matre women, son. I'm sorry if I don't approve of your relationship with Andin."

Farhan took a deep breath after reading it. I regret why my mom and dad never said this. The man then opened the next page.

Farhan's tears can't be contained anymore. Fall down her cheeks. Regretting that he had been angry with his parents for a year he did not return to the village. With trembling hands the man opened the next sheet.

"To you my son, listen to your mother's message, if you have a partner take good care of these two things, namely take care of your heart and keep your partner's eyes. Take care of your heart from women other than your wife. Take care of your wife's eyes, don't make her cry. Because your wife's tears can take you to hell. Put your wife together, like her parents treat her."

Reading this sheet, Farhan immediately remembered his wife Rachel. He often made the woman cry. He also grieved his heart. Farhan pulled her hair in frustration. Remembering the mistake he made to his wife.

Farhan closed the diary. Rubbing his watery eyes. After a bit of calm, he reopened the next sheet.

"My son, if you think mom will always be there for you it's wrong. When you often ignore the mother, often argue, often argue, and even often disappoint, I hope you will not regret, because the mother is only a human being, not a creature that can live forever. One day, I will leave you. God can call mom at any time, without your consent. For the rest of my life, I just want your friendly treatment. Because if we part, there's no regret and disappointment."

Reading this sheet, Farhan returned sobbing. Remembering the last time he met his parents. He was still arguing about Andin.

"Dad, mother, forgive your son. I promise I will keep your trust. I'm taking Rachel to this house. I'll leave it to him. I'm sorry dad, I'm sorry mom" Farhan said sobbing.
