Zahra kept asking about the fate and whereabouts of her mother. Because as he remembered, his mother was also both a victim with him in the tragedy.
Finally with a heavy heart Rahul told me everything. That her mother-in-law did not survive and was already dead in that great event. That left Zahra devastated and sad. Until he continued to whine asking for the delivery of the woman who had given birth to him.
Rahul finally complied. He took his wife and son to the vast burial area of the Dirgantara group.
"This. This is Mother's final resting place" Rahul pointed to one of the tombs lined with other tombs. It seems that the tomb is still not too long, the tomb is only a few months old.
Zahra handed over the baby Chand she was carrying to Rahul's hand. Then he crouched down beside the tomb in front of him
"Mothers. This is Zahra Ma, Mother's son. I can't believe Mom's really gone. My mother has left me forever. Why did you leave so soon? Didn't you say that you wanted to see your grandchild born? But he didn't even get to see and know his oma. I'm sorry Mom, because I wasn't there at Mom's last minute. You must have needed me so much back then, right? Hix"
Zahra cried sobbing while holding a tombstone bearing her mother's name. Guilt struck him, for not being by his mother's side in the last seconds the woman breathed.
While accompanying and burying the body of the woman who has given birth and raised him, is his duty as the only child. But even someone else did.
Rahul crouched down next to his wife. Seeing his wife grieving made him empathize and feel the same way.
"Never blame yourself. I should be the one apologizing, because I can't take care of Mom. So he had to leave so tragically. I'm sorry, for not being able to be a good daughter-in-law to your mother" Rahul spoke softly as he lowered his face sadly.
"It's not your fault either. Whatever happened to my mother was a disaster. That was his destiny line. Everything that happens has to happen. Instead I am very grateful to you, because you have given a proper funeral for Mom.
You and your family have taken care of my body very well. When I'm not there to do it. You have replaced my duty to serve him in his last moments" said Zahra as she wiped away the tears that kept on breaking her face.
"Your mother is also my mother. If you are his daughter, then I am his son. Because I also consider your mother like my own mother. Because at any time I will never forget your mother's kindness towards me. In addition, she is a woman who has presented my wife to the world. So whatever I do, it's still not enough to repay him" Rahul caressed his wife's face.
"Mom, I hope you're happy there. And I'll be happy here with my husband and son too" Zahra glanced back at the mound of land where her mother's body was. Trying to show her smile. Even if what is seen is a soft smile on the sidelines of her tears. Trying to toughen up.
"Mother just relax. Until I die, I will always keep my promise to always make your daughter and grandchild happy. I would never hurt them. Because they are both my life" Rahul said solemnly while hugging Zahra and Chand.
********
He felt that the woman had no rights whatsoever to what she had. Because all of that is his as deputy director of Dirgantara group, and he has had since before they got married.
Gala gives Amora a bargain, or rather a threat. That is, he will never reveal the evidence of the infidelity and adultery of Amora, provided that the woman is willing to make peace and does not try to claim property that is not hers.
In fact, he could have revealed evidence about the scandal, or the affair carried out by Amora to the judges. And the evidence was strong enough to have Amora cornered and unable to demand anything from her.
But he did not want to make a good name and the image of the woman more polluted. Even though Amora had betrayed her, she still could not deny her own feelings. His heart and love still belong to the woman to this day.
And he didn't know until when the feeling would go away on its own. That's why he can't be too cruel to the woman he loves by indulging in his disgrace. He and his family knew enough.
While on trial he told the judge that the reason for suing Amora divorced, because he no longer had a match with the woman.
He also did it to protect his family's reputation. Because Dirgantara group is one of the largest holding company, which is quite famous and respected in Indonesia.
He did not want the scandal done by Amora to affect the reputation of his family group. His family supported his actions. Even they were very proud of him, because he could make decisions wisely without being affected by his emotions.
On the other hand, Rahul still insisted on polishing Amora and Naomi as the masterminds of the spread of the video he had with Zahra.
Zahra had tried to talk and persuade Rahul, to forgive and forget what had happened, for the sake of Gala. But this time Rahul was so stubborn. He firmly said that he had forgiven Amora and her Mama.
But he still wants them to be processed legally, to give a deterrent effect. And she was sure her brother would understand her actions. Seeing her husband who could no longer be opposed, Zahra finally relented and let. Maybe this is the best decision.
And the person who was most devastated and injured by all the problems that happened, of course, was Gala. He did not know until when the wound would evaporate and heal. It seemed like he needed some time to calm down and reorganize his heart.
Finally he decided on an idea to leave the country, and started a new life there. He persuaded and asked permission from his father, to lead one of the Aerospace Group's subsidiaries in London.
Helmi refused his request. Because he doesn't want to be far from the boy. Especially for now Gala is sad. And he believes that the child is in desperate need of the people closest to him, to always entertain and support him. And he was sure his wife would agree with him as well.
But Gala doesn't break charcoal. He continues to persuade and convince his parents, if for now he is in need of a new atmosphere and time for himself so that he can quickly move on. Finally the family could say nothing but allow it.
