“Artha cheating Mam. Artha caught another adult scene with another woman. Afa saw directly the eyes of Afa herself.” Answer Afa lirih.
“Afa's own decision how? Has Afa told Afa's parents?” mami asked while stroking Afa's hair.
“Not yet Afa tell parents Mam. Afa was confused to explain how while Afa himself still did not master the situation. Afa was afraid that Afa could not act right when Afa's mind was in a rage. But in the future, certainly Afa will not be the same Artha again. In addition Artha has given a statement that she prefers the woman also Afa does not want to marry a man who has clearly had an affair. It did not rule out the possibility that he would do the same thing a second time. It's just that this heart is still unable to sincerely accept this bitter reality. How to treat it?” Reply to Afa while crying.
“Afa, maybe this sounds absurd to Afa at the moment, but separation is not the end of everything. It can be a new beginning for another relationship. Like Artha and her affair or like Afa with other men who might be the match of Afa. Maybe it's very heavy, but Mami believes Afa is a strong woman, Afa is a great woman. Back when Mami decided to divorce, Mami was also like Afa. My mother's mind was very upset. Mami feels Mami has destroyed the right of the children to get affection from a father. But as time went on, we grew older and learned to be wise. Although it may not be fair to them, but at least Mami has tried to do the best for them.” Mami explained and advised Afa.
“Mami, sorry. Afa cengeng.” Said Afa while wiping away her tears.
“Nothing. Everyone has the right to be sad, but only a great person can rise from his grief. Now Afa rest first yes here.” Pinta Mom.
Afa just nodded and immediately laid her body on the mattress. She was given her long black hair by a mother who was not her real mother but she loved her so much.
No drowsiness to break. Afa could not hold it anymore and immediately fell asleep. She still had bad dreams, but she was no longer crying. Maybe he's already flirting with it.
In the backyard, his two best friends were making decorations to celebrate his birthday. Afa may forget because the problems she is experiencing at this time are very heavy. But not with his friends. They still remember her and want to surprise her to be happy. Her mother was also involved in preparing a birthday cake.
It doesn't feel like the clock is showing at 7 a.m. She woke up from her nightmare. Gathering a little of the lives that were still missing, he tried to focus on the entire room.
“It turns out true I'm not at home.” Thought in the heart.
He hurried to tidy up his hair and clothes and went straight downstairs. Because after all he was currently in this hostess' room. Afa felt bad because Mami must have left for work while Afa was still good to sleep there.
Arriving at the last rung of the stairs, Afa was greeted by Bibi.
“Non Afa, want breakfast first or not?” Ask Aunty.
“Other people have already left for work huh Bi? Afa breakfast outside Bi.” Ask Afa and answer Aunt's questions.
“Non Afa earlier I got a message from Den Sam if Non woke up, Non told to the backyard, Den Sam wait Non there.” Answer the real aunt was coded by Sam.
“Oh, yes already if that's Afa there first yes Bi. Thank you Bi.” Afa replied that she immediately stepped foot into the backyard of the house.
“Happy birthdays to you, happy birthdays to you, happy birthdays, happy birthdays, happy birthdays, happy birthdays to you.” The song was sung by everyone there.
A smile on the face of Afa. Many of Shean and Sam's friends who are also friends of Afa come and gather to surprise when this is not a holiday.
“Thank you Mami.” Reply to Afa who then let go of each other's smiles.
“Fa, I love Lo.” Said Sam while hugging Afa.
“Iya I know. Thanks yeah. You're always there for me.” Reply Afa to Sam.
“Afa, happy birthday yes. May long live.” Vivi.
“Afa, brother's sister has grown up turned out. Be Healthy Yes Fa, may Afa Happy.” Eric hugged Afa.
“May we stay like this until old age. Aamiin.” Farel hugged Afa and Eric.
They continued by blowing out the candles and cutting the cake.
“God, this is my family. You can slap me through my farewell with my fiancee. But please, don't test me by separating me from them. Without them, I may now live a name that You will not accept. Lord, if possible, allow me to stretch out my chest to accept this fact, strengthen me as You strengthen those You have given trials that may be greater than I. Aamiin.” Do it in the heart.
They party on weekdays. Notah what they think until willing to take time to make an Afa laugh.
At the very back, Shane was sitting while looking at Afa. Afa also walked up to him while the others were busy chatting.
“Kak!” greet Afa.
“Fa, can you hug for a moment?” ask Shane.
“Kak why?” Ask Afa while hugging Shane.
“So I don't know what to say about the Fa. I am so thankful you are still here with us. Brother is happy there is Afa here. Brother does not know how it would have been if you were late for a while and lost Afa.” Shane said with a trembling hand.
“Yes God, when I was too focused on thinking about myself for that bastard's attitude, it turned out that there was someone's heart that I was hurting. Lord, please strengthen her heart beyond the strength of my heart. Really, I'm sorry to have scared her like this.” Pinta Afa in the heart.
“Silent sister with Afa, sister does not want to lose Afa. Help u! Don't do anything that doesn't.” Shane's tears inundated Aba's stump. He rushes to wipe away his tears, but they still flow.
Afa tried to let go of her very tight embrace. Afa saw the tough man was in his weak spot. She wiped her tears and hugged him back. Now the embrace of Afa is firmer than the embrace of Shane. Not knowing why, everything about Artha was erased from his mind and turned into a piteous one.
