SUPPOSE THAT...

VIDEO CALL

The vibration of the phone in his pants pocket made Dave realize from the irrational daydream. He rubbed his face rough, trying to get rid of the face of the woman he did not want.

He sat on the edge of the bed, a smile immediately spread on his handsome face when he saw the name on the screen of his phone that was still vibrating in his hand.

Dave stood up, reaching for the light switch located next to the door of his room. Once the spacious bedroom with a lot of books and black boxing samsak in the corner of the room brightly lit, bright, dave impatiently shifted his phone screen while sitting on his desk chair.

"Hi Mom...?" Dave said as he stared at the screen of his cell phone, which showed a woman of the age of 50 years, but all his long hair that was simple dark had turned all white without exception.

Dave put his cell phone in a standing position and leaned it on a stack of thick books on his study table.

Then he folded his hands on his study table. With the chin he put on it, making him in a comfortable position to look at the face of the woman he called Mom who was making a video call with him.

"How are you Dave...?" The 50-year-old woman who was actually still very beautiful with just a few wrinkles under her eyes was smiling .

"Good Mom," said Dave. " I'm sorry I forgot to tell you today." she continued.

From inside the phone screen, the woman smiled at her only son. "You must be busy." he said.

Dave changed his sitting position a little, but his eyes did not turn away from the figure he loved. "Well...Angela asked me to accompany her shopping all day...." Dave says. But his mind was not fixed on the beautiful fiancee, but instead more to Kirana who had only met several times in a magical situation.

"Well, give me my regards for her." The woman with all of her hair who had bleached said.

"I'll get Mom, she'll be so happy." Dave smile.

Truly a gentle and sincere smile when Dave looked at Mom's face through the phone screen.

"Talking about Angela, Mom can't wait to see you marry her." The woman's lips glanced at the smile. Which suddenly made Dave's face momentarily stiff, but soon his facial expression became as usual. "You're lucky Dave has Angela as your fiancee..." The woman said back.

Dave was silent, but his lips still formed a smile. Just so that the 50-year-old woman with her simple white hair who turned out to be her mother was calm.

"Angela comes from the venerable Adam's Family, she's also beautiful, kind, and more important than all that, she loves you Dave.." the old woman's eyes glazed over her son.

Dave gulped, the last sentence of his mother was more like a show to his own mother in the past. That marriage because of her matchmaking only made misery in her life.

"Your grandfather was very selective when choosing a room for you, but with Angela your grandfather immediately agreed." Her mother said back.

Dave's black eyes immediately rounded when he saw his mother whose long hair had completely grayed it was a small laugh. A very rare laugh Dave saw.

"Mom became amused when we first remembered Angela who was your daughter." The woman said after she finished laughing. "Because for a lifetime, only this time Mom agreed with your Grandfather." back the 50-year-old woman laughed, making a hue of happiness radiate on the man.

"Dragon and happiness are Angela, Dave..." The woman again said with a smile looking at her son.

For Dave, his mother's happiness is his happiness. He would be willing to do anything, even if it was impossible, as long as it could make the woman smile.

The shadow of his childhood that filled the picture of his mother who always cried alone and without anyone, made Dave promise in his heart, that he will always be happy woman who had given birth to him.

"Aahs..Mom can't wait for you to get married." the woman said happily. " Mom can't wait to be called Grandma" she laughed. "It's definitely funny and as adorable as you used to be Dave." back in the day, her mom laughed.

Dave just silently watched his mother's laughter which he rarely saw. Although Dave knew, that his mother wasn't really laughing.

"....Mom, you don't want to go home...?" ask Dave after a moment of silence.

You can see it from the phone screen the facial expression of her mother changed. Since the age of Dave has not been 3 years, his mother has indeed invited him to settle in Paris. Only, when Dave was 7 years old, he was invited to live back to Indonesia by his Grandfather.

But since living apart from his mother, Dave has been sick several times and the Doctor suggested that he stay with his mother.

Be at the age of 13 years until now he returned to live with his mother in Paris, although sometimes several times he had to go home to Indonesia on the orders of his grandfather.

And now when he has completed his SI study, he decided to go home and study S2 in Indonesia, none other than because he had his own intentions.

"...Dad asked you yesterday about Mom.." Dave continued.

The woman was silent for a moment, then smiled faintly, "....What's your Daddy like now...?" it was slow, almost inaudible.

Dave was silent and did not answer. His black eyes were still staring straight at the phone he was now holding, so he could get closer to seeing his mother's face.

"...Is his face also filled with wrinkles like Mom...??" she asked again, her eyes glazed over her son from the screen of the phone. "....Surely..my hair is more than his.." he smiled bitterly. Saddened by the condition of his hair that is so quickly whitened like an 80-year-old with all his gray hair.

"....Mom..." Dave's eyes turned red, he held back his tears from coming out when his mother noticed that his long hair had turned all white, when he was only 50 years old.

Looking at his son's face was fixed with his teary eyes. "Dave, Mom kangen..." He smiled, but his eyes were wide.

Dave let out a long sigh, lowered his gaze for a moment, then grabbed his forehead-covering hair and brought his face closer to the screen of his cell phone and gushed to see his mother.

Dave never liked his wide forehead, so he always covered it with his hair. But her mother liked it so much that her hair was neatly combed upwards, making the forehead she hated look. The reason her mother was not reasonable, was just so that her mother could see her face more clearly.

"...You're really handsome Dave..." The woman with her gray hair rubbed the screen of her cell phone that was connected to a video call with her son who now lives far from her.

His chest rumbled, his shoulders trembling withstanding the cries. He did not want his son to see him cry again, but seeing his son's face really made him miss someone he could no longer meet.

"....Mom really misses you Dave." she said almost shed a tear.
