Single-minded

Azzam Al - Fatih

TWENTY YEARS LATER

"You're ready!"

"Twenty more years I'm waiting for today. I'll never waste it today. If only I had to die after today I was sincere. My heart and soul screamed, sick and longed to torment my day. There is no ready or unprepared word, there will only be a sense of relief and gratitude. My wait ends today!" Sahut Fatih loud and straightforward.

Arif nodded full of novelty. Obviously Fatih's longing can't be stemmed. For the sake of this day, Fatih endured the grief that no one else could feel. Never feel it, just imagine it will not be able to. He lived like an orphan even though his parents were still alive. It is not easy and it takes a lot of struggle.

"I'm sorry for Arif who couldn't change your lonely twenty years. Om Arif can only be silent, supporting you without being able to do anything. A relationship that never came together in the first place. Real to be the reason for every drop of your tears!"

"There are no tears or regrets today. I'm waiting for today, not to hear an apology. I just want to look at my mom's face, only you want me to think!"

"Fatih, promise Aunt Vika. Do not blame your mother or curse the time that has turned. The current situation, no more than the end of the sweet story of your parents. Love that tries to be warm in your grandfather's cold heart!" Vika said softly and warmly.

"They're not my family, until I never considered him a grandfather? Especially Mr. Azzam Aulian Putra Atmaja. He's nobody in my life?"

"Train, watch your talk!" Sahut Rayyan was firm, Fatih immediately lowered her head.

"I never forbid you to hate them. But your hatred will only be a sorrow for my brother. I won't let his sacrifice be met with a grudge that will never end!" Rayyan said coldly.

Rayyan walked towards the window of Vira's mansion. His hands were propping his face up on the window shutters. Rayyan looked down, hiding her tears. As an army officer, it was very inappropriate for him to cry. But as a sister, she was weak without Vira supporting her life. His tears were no longer able to contain him, dripping along with the memory of the figure of a brother who was so warm.

Every drop of Vira's sweat has made it a success. There are not enough words to repay all Vira's favor. Vika and Rayyan are weak without Vira. The lamp in their lives is none other than Vira. Farewell twenty years ago. It definitely ruined their happiness. Rayyan recalled the incident that happened twenty years ago.

FLASHBACKS

"I won't ask you to leave if your heart doesn't want to leave. But pretending to be blind doesn't see your pain and anxiety, I really can't!" Sahut Vira lirih while holding warm Azzam Head.

"Tante Melda is a good mother. She's a loyal wife. A obedient daughter-in-law. His tears and pain continued to be soaked. Just for the sake of the peace of the Atmaja family. Now his weak body was no longer able to store suffering. Lying helpless, became the last choice of heart. Showing you her son and husband. He needs your warm embrace and affection!" Vira said softly, Azzam silently looked down deeper and deeper. His hands clenched tightly onto Vira's body. It was as if his heart was really agitated.

"If her tears never go away. Now it's time for brother to wipe his pain sweat. If it used to be his hand that feeds sister eat. Now it is the hands of the brother that must sustain his life. There will be no laughter in our happiness. If there is no smile a mother accompanies her. For Allah SWT smiles upon HIS servant, when a mother's smile is struck by the behavior of her child!"

"We go together!" Azzam said, Vira nodded slowly. As Azzam stood up, a nod to Vira's head awaited Azzam. Azzam slowly pulled Vira's hand, but stopped when Azzam felt Vira's leg restrained.

"Why?"

"I'll go with you, but not now!"

"Then I won't go!" Azzam said firmly, Vira shook her head weakly. Vira politely brushed off Azzam's hand. Vira let go of Azzam's hand very politely.

"My biggest regret so far, not loving or marrying you. But my status is low when I'm with you. The decision is too hasty to live with you. For my weakness is the reason for my mother's pain and death. So never make the same mistake. Be a devoted child, before being a good husband and father!"

"You want me to go!"

"Go, before it's too late. Me and Fatih will follow!"

"I'll come, when things get better!"

"You promise!" Azzam said, Vira nodded.

Azzam walked away from Vira, Nadya followed Azzam's footsteps. There was a triumphant smile on Nadya's face.

"I won Vira!" Nadya said softly, Vira shook her head.

"You never win, then or now. You can only snatch, without being able to have it!" Sahut Vira lirih, Nadya inflamed. But his anger was withheld, because Azzam was getting away. Nadya ran after Azzam, leaving Vira staring back at Azzam.

"Sir Azzam!" Shouted Vira, Azzam stopped his steps. Azzam turned his head towards Vira, Vira's silent gaze piercing Azzam's heart. There was a sudden pain in Azzam's heart.

"Take Fariz to meet aunt Melda. It's time for you to be together, looking after the mother who has long missed you!" Vira said loudly, Azzam nodded slowly. Azzam was about to run to Vira, but Vira forbade him by stretching his hands towards Azzam.

"Don't come back, you have to keep moving forward. Take care of yourself, brother!" Shouting Vira loudly, Azzam nodded doubtfully. Vira looked as if she wanted to say the opposite.

"Vira, I'm going for you. I hope you keep your promise. I hope my hunch is wrong, if you're going to leave me. I'm trying to convince myself. If you're gonna stay with me. I'll be right back!" Inner Azzam stared at Vira's nanar.

"You are my priest, be happy even without me. Dreams should still be dreams. A child should go back to his mother. May there be happiness for us!" Inner Vira pilu.

"Sir Vira!"

"Silver is fine and forever fine!" Sahut Vira firmly.

"Rayyan, look after and educate Fatih. He trusts brother, brother's greatest treasure. Don't fill your heart with revenge. Brother will be back when things have improved!"

"Why should you give up?"

"It will all end when someone ends it!" Vira's voice was firm, Rayyan and Vika hugged Vira tightly. A breakup that clearly happened and can no longer be delayed.

FLASH BACK OFF

"Om Rayyan, I'm sorry Fatih!" Said Fatih, leaning on Rayyan's body.

"Never hate them, because brother Vira doesn't want to see your hatred. Blood in your veins, the same blood flowing in their veins. A reality you can never argue!"

"I wouldn't hate them. But when my mom was next to me. I'll make sure his loneliness of twenty years paid off. I'll put a smile back on her face, I'll wipe her tears. Every drop of my tears will be every tear. The people who made me an orphan. Cold and quiet with no mom beside me. I'll make sure they pay off. The purpose of life that has always existed in my life since decades ago!" Batin Fatih's.

"Azzam Al-Fatih, the beautiful name that keeps you remembering who your real father is!" Said Vika while gently patting his nephew's shoulder.

"If it wasn't my mom who gave it to me. I'll change this name!" Fatih's mind while looking at Vika. Trying to cover up his hatred for Atmaja's extended family.
