Not the Choice Son-in-law

Bumepi part 15

POV BU NANI'S

As I was sitting alone Maya came over and showed me a picture of a little boy that was very similar to Adam's picture as a child.

Long time I looked at her picture so funny and adorable, no matter what ghost has possessed me.

The longer I look at her the more I miss that innocent child.

Maya showed me many photos and videos of the cute boy, sometimes smiling to herself.

I said in my heart, lest I hate Dahlia then, it must be that little Adam-like boy playing with me.

Actually, unbeknownst to Maya and Bagas, I used to call Adam and Dahlia, but their numbers could not be reached.

I asked myself if they hated me so much that they never communicated by phone.

I just resigned and hope one day Adam and Dahlia return home.

I intend to ask Dahlia and her son whom I once considered not my biological grandson.

I often cry when I remember what I did to Dahlia, it turns out my son Adam was very lucky to get a wife like Dahlia.

If time could be replayed I would never make the mistake I intentionally made.

What kind of parents am I to get rid of my own son-in-law and grandson.

Especially until now Maya has not been given offspring at the age of her marriage which is almost three years.

Various efforts have been made by Maya in order to get children.

It turned out that nothing had come to fruition, until I had Maya adopt a child from an orphanage as an angler.

But Maya and Bagas are committed to continuing treatment.

I never left the house again if there was anything I needed, I just had Maya look for it.

I feel ashamed when I meet my neighbors especially if they ask how my grandson is right now.

I was confused what to answer with them, because I did not know how big he was and what he could have been.

My guilt grew when I saw that there was a mother holding her grandson, if like this I remembered again with Dahlia and her child.

When night falls I only look at the family photos of Adam when his son was a baby.

That photo Adam gave me on purpose before they left.

I didn't notice the photo at first because I thought I would never miss Dahlia and her son.

But I was wrong the longer Dahlia and her son disappeared the more I remembered him.

When I heard that Adam and Dahlia were successful there was a sense of happiness and sadness in my heart.

Happy because they do not live in distress,

I am sad that they will never return to my home.

I realized that I didn't deserve to be forgiven even more Dahlia whom I considered my family's disgrace.

I also often heard Maya talking to Dahlia on the phone, it seems like Dahlia was very happy there.

I actually wanted to talk too but I was afraid that Dahlia would refuse.

Regret never first I just hope Adam can bring Dahlia home even if only for a day.

It doesn't feel right if I haven't apologized to Dahlia and her innocent granddaughter.
