aji's Truth

" Wait"

Laras turned his head because he felt called by someone. Seen by the middle-aged man can be said he was the same age as Mr. Laras.

" Yes" answered Laras kalem with a friendly smile.

" I want to ask you a son's address." Papa Johan pretended to ask Laras an address. With a friendly smile Laras gave the address instructions asked by papa Johan.

Papa Johan squatted in alignment with Chadi and tried to wipe the little boy's hair without saying anything. Papa Johan tried not to shed tears to see the grandson he had not known.

" Why are you crying?" Chadi asked after seeing Papa Johan's eyes glazed over

" No, I'm just getting dust." His kill.

Chadi smiles. "Excuse me, sir" Pamit Laras, by holding the two children together to come with him, not because of fear or suspicion of the old man but it is time for Laras to teach najai.

Papa Johan was back in the car, however Chadi was his grandson his heart was moved to approach Chadi and also saw Laras up close.

" What did you do after you prevented me from approaching them?"

" They don't know me"

"Better you guys go now." Say Sigit.

"What do you mean is to tell us to leave, I haven't met my son!" Johan arrived - suddenly the emotion of hearing Sigit's words.

" Don't I say, not now, it's not the right time to meet them. I'd better talk about this first with you."

" You know your father never liked me."

"I'll try to explain to him what really happened."

" We'd better go to your uncle's house first" Papa Johan said, trying to mediate.

"Accounting. . ." Papa Johan cried when he reached his brother's house. There's no answer.

Johan opened the door of the house that was not locked.

" Uhuk. . .uhuk. . .." There was the sound of people coughing from inside the room.

Johan and his father went straight into the uncle's room alternately because the room was not too spacious.

Papa Johan sat next to his sister's bed. " Why don't you just get a doctor when you're sick like this?"

" it's an age disease, you don't have to worry." Uncle Johan tried to sit down.

" I'll be healed soon, too" he continued.

The brothers began to talk to let go of longing. While Johan was in the room he used to occupy, no banuak changed everything is still the same as before.

Even the shadow on the night he committed a great sin with Laras again crossed his mind. Accidentally when Johan tried to explore the room he found a letter in the drawer of the room.

Johan frowned and opened the letter. To Johan's surprise was the letter he had sent to Laras, a letter stating that he would come with his family. Why the letter is there.

Without waiting for long, Johan immediately rushed to his mother's room. Johan did not want to delay his curiosity.

" What is this? Isn't this the letter I used to send to Laras, why is it here? " Tanya Johan, hearing Johan's question, papa Johan lun immediately turned his gaze towards the brother.

Uncle Johan silently replied, he took a deep breath, there was another intention for him to keep all these secrets.

" I'm sorry uncle Johan" he said.

"What does uncle mean?"

"I love Desi too much her mother Laras, but Desi prefers Rudi and marries her. I'm really hurt and hate them so much."

"When you say you're in love with Laras uncle doesn't like it, uncle tries to stop you. And after you left, uncle found out that Laras was pregnant with your son"

"Uncle wants to see Rudi suffer, so uncle did not deliver your letter to Laras, even uncle also said if you only play tricks on Laras."

"Uncle was very satisfied at that time, but after uncle mendengat Laras suffered because dianiya by Warsito, uncle wanted to contact you. Uncle feels guilty."

"But uncle undoes the intention to tell you, because uncle thinks you're happy with your wife. Uncle feels more guilty when Desi's mother Laras dies from a heart attack after learning the truth about Laras' condition that Warsito has tortured."

" Until now uncle is still guilty of Laras and Desi"

At length Aji told all the truth, how crazy Johan heard all Aji's statements. Johan sat down on the floor and grabbed his hair feeling frustrated.

While Paoa Johan was just silent, silent as if many things.

"What did you do uncle??, Laras lived suffering like that because of uncle's selfishness. I got to how about it now, Pa,?" Johan was crying and feeling claustrophobic about what Laras was going through.

" I lived happily this whole time without burden after being able to forget Laras, but this fact really broke me to death, Laeas suffered so much."

"Uncle is cruel, Uncle made everyone suffer, Laras, Me, My son, Mr. Laras, Ibu Laraspun to death."

Aji was crying regretfully but it was useless. It's all been happening. Johan was eager to make up for everything. Johan wants to restore the glory of Laras.
