Aaric held both cans of soft drink on Recky's shoulders and the back of his neck, all the while thinking about calming himself and Recky down. He felt that enough energy had been thrown away for something that could not be changed anymore. He expected that Recky would also not need to waste energy on something that would hurt him even more.
"Recky, try to calm down and look at all this from a different side. From the other side, not from what we think now. Because right now, I'm so tired after facing everything that just happened. Don't you add any more, by doing something that hurts you, if you don't want to see the nerves in my head breaking off." Said Aaric while patting Recky's back gently.
"We are now very mature. You can think well, like an adult. I know, now that you're angry with that guy, so was I when I first heard it from Jekob." Aaric began to speak quietly and calmly, trying to share his feelings when he first found out his mother was having an affair.
"But after I thought again, about their relationship, it wasn't entirely the fault of the man. Whatever the reason, he approached the woman. Because if the man annoys or seduces the woman, the relationship will not be established, if the woman does not respond to him. But what happened was like a welcome. Yaaa ... both piled water and flushed their bodies." Said Aaric slowly rethinking his Mama's relationship with Mr. Haiman.
Recky kept his chin on his knees and hugged his leg while digesting what his brother said. Aaric placed both soft drink cans on the floor, then sat on the floor near Recky. "Let's both learn to stretch the chest not to hate them both, including Opa. I just realized it a few days ago. Those dozens of years of anger and hatred I kept in my heart, but not the happiness I got. Now all I feel is sadness and fatigue. Hating is exhausting." Aaric said as he looked at Recky seriously.
"If we hate other people, it's like there's a mouse in the house. Don't throw the rat away by burning the house down. Enough we hit him and throw him in the trash." Said Aaric while taking a deep and long breath, realizing that his sister's heart and mind were turbulent.
"If we know that hate and anger are useless to us, let's throw them all in the trash. Don't burn our bodies by letting hatred and anger rule our hearts and minds. We must decide to keep or throw away that useless thing." Aaric said seriously, while looking at the silent Recky. He knew his brother was listening to what he said.
"If we continue to hate it, in addition to damaging the heart, mind and body, we cannot focus on doing something good. That hatred will always disturb our concentration to keep paying attention to them." Aaric felt he had gone through that, so he was not focused on doing something good by staying and being right.
"Now that you look at our current state, hatred is almost ruining our lives and bodies. But does it have any effect on them? They keep doing their intentions and desires with pleasure, without caring about our anger and hate." Aaric said so, considering that his Papa had once stored all of those flavors, thus almost damaging his body.
Now her father was calmer, having removed all those flavors from his heart. "If they do wrong, let them bear the consequences of their actions. Our hatred and anger will not add to their suffering, but make us sick and suffering." Aaric saw all that his father felt while he was in the hospital. And also with the wounds of his heart when he hated his parents.
"Did that guy steal something?" Recky asked quietly, after a long time listening to what his brother said.
"Yeah... He stole the company's money. I said steal, because he took what wasn't his. Don't confuse that by saying he's embezzling company money or corruption. One would be so ashamed if one were to say thief, rather than corruptor." Aaric recalled the letter of complaint submitted to the police to ensnare Mr. Haiman and Mr. Lepart and his accomplices.
"On the punishment to be accepted, let the judge determine. When Mr. Hutama said, I should be grateful in all circumstances, yes, I can see it now. The woman had divorced Papa, who was charged with plotting her murder. So in the prosecution/indictment, he doesn't use the name Biantra anymore. But using the name before marrying Papa, because he has returned to his family." Said Aaric quietly, while he was talking he saw Recky suddenly staring at him.
"In this life, we have the Almighty Judge. He will give the right reward for all our actions. Right now we may feel ashamed about bustling such a woman. But gradually, people will judge us to be self-sufficient, because they see our actions. Not because we are born of whose offspring." Aaric said firmly to strengthen himself and also Recky so that he could be excited and not have to be discouraged or feel ashamed of others.
"So let's raise your face to see this world and also the people you meet. When people see your attitude and your kindness, people will wonder and not believe you were born to a woman like her." Aaric encouraged his sister, so as not to fall because of the actions of his mother.
"As Papa likes to say when accompanying us. Maybe one day we can meet or gather with people who are not good, but do not be similar to them. This happens in our family. Don't be like the bad guy, even if it's your own parents." Aaric kept reminding Recky, as he felt it was a good time to remind each other. Because busyness often takes their time to be able to talk like this.
"We have the mind and mind to determine what is good and what is not. Not because of someone's words. As of now, you have your own mind and mind to sort out what is good and what is not good from all that I say." Aaric said so, so that his sister could determine for herself which was good for him.
"Take good from what I say. No one can distract you from a good thing if you believe it is good. Including me, your brother and your father. This is my advice to face tomorrow together. Because this isn't over." Said Aaric while shuffling his sister's hair fondly. Then he stood up and asked Recky to stand up and raise his arm.
