The park is deserted.
Tanvi sat down daydreaming, with her eyes moist, her tears already dried up.
From childhood, she wished her mother would come back.
He does not want to be adopted.
But now, given his wait all this time the heartache on his mother deepened.
He didn't expect it to be like this.
It's much better if he doesn't know.
Suddenly someone was holding both of his shoulders, making him turn his head.
Fuckin' fal!
“If you want to daydream, invite your husband dong.”
Fal sat down beside Tanvi.
Tanvi was silent, just lowered her head.
Without speaking, Fal took off his jacket and
clothe him.
For a while, there was no sound.
Fal knew very well what Tanvi was thinking.
“Kak,” said Tanvi slowly, without turning his head.
“Ya?”
“Can you ask for help?”
“Sure. What's up?”
Tanvi clapped Fal's hand which followed him confused.
Tanvi took her to a garden near the park.
“Tanvi, why are we here?”
Fal was astonished while drowning because it was quiet.
Tanvi did not reply, her eyes looking for something on the ground.
HP is used as a flashlight.
“What are you looking for again?”
Before long, Tanvi finds what he's looking for.
“This, Brother.”
Fal's forehead creased to look at the mound of earth near the tree.
“This?”
Although astonished, Fal obeyed his wife's will.
And dig up mounds of earth using stones.
Long enough, he found a large sack buried in the ground.
“What is this?” ask Fal.
Tanvi opened the sack and took out the contents.
Fal was silent at the already fragile baby basket.
Inside there is also a piece of cloth, a small blanket, a baby diaper, and a shabby baby shirt.
“24 years ago, I was just a helpless baby. It was thrown away without knowing why. But stupidly, I'm still trying to find my parents. Even if I knew, they wouldn't be looking for me. They dumped me, obviously, didn't want me to be born. Hence, as soon as Ms. Ratna died, I promised to bury everything about my parents. I won't be looking for them anymore. I'd better not know them. Than my heart hurts more.”
Tanvi took a breath for a moment.
“But why, now someone comes confess my mother?” Tanvi squeezed her baby clothes. “Why did he come when I forgot?”
Fal confusedly replied.
“Kak Fal knows about this right?” tanya Tanvi sharply makes Fal flounder.
“So Fal knows that Alisha's maid is looking for me, but you don't tell me at all?”
“Tanvi, do you know where?” Fal's a little panicked.
Tanvi looked away.
“I heard Brother Fal talk to Kak Farhan in the hospital. And I made sure myself, he was shocked to see the paper with my name.”
“Tanvi, I hid this from you, because I don't want you to think,” Fal panicked.
“I know you're disappointed. But shouldn't you hear Ms Namila's explanation? With him looking for you again, it proves he's sorry. After all, he didn't throw you out on the streets, did he? If he doesn't have a heart, he won't throw you into an orphanage. If he hates, why would he give you such a beautiful name? If he has the heart, he will leave you without a blanket and let you get cold.”
Tanvi's tears rolled down.
Fal's hand stretched out wiped away his tears.
“We go home yes. You need to relax. Don't think too hard. There must be a way out.”
Tanvi rubbed her cheeks and looked down sad.
“We have to spit away. If anyone sees our malem-malem here, it will be counted macem-macem, let alone there is a baby basket like this. Ntar we are accused of throwing a baby is a danger.”
Fal cleaned things up as before, then helped Tanvi stand up.
Without wasting time, they left.
Busy with their own minds.
Tanvi confirmed her husband's words.
Maybe he just needs to be heartened to give his mother a chance to explain.
