The Childhood Bond of Love

Unpacking Yourself

Today Deva intends to be honest with Aisha about who she is and why it can be feared by many.

"Aisha" Deva called out to Aisha who was sitting on the sofa in her room.

"Yes, husband. What was? Why do you look pale like that? Are you sick?" Aisha asked while carrying Deva sitting on the bed.

"No, I just wanted to tell you something!" Holding Aisha's hand tightly.

Is he going to tell me everything I want to know right now?

"Tell me." Aisha lirih.

"But promise me that if you know everything, you won't leave me!" With a sad face and increasingly tightened his hand grip on Aisha's tanga.

"All right." Aisha replied with her heart already pounding very fast.

"Aisha, I won't cover anything else for you. About who I am, and everything you saw the other day. Then listen carefully!" Stop talking and take a long breath. "I'm a Mafia man, even I'm the leader!" Deva said with a trembling voice and head bowed.

A beam of shock that very much looms in both eyeballs Aisha. His face piasmed for a moment, as if what he had just heard was like lightning striking. Aisha wiped her forehead which suddenly sweated.

"When? Since when did you become a mafia?" Aisha asked with a face of disbelief.

Deva's still down.

"Since you left me." With a soft voice.

Aisha took a long breath. Apparently his guess is right. Her husband is a Mafia man, and he is the leader.

Aisha turned her back and went to the guest room. Deva is holding Aisha behind her back.

"Aisha, are you angry with this fact?" While aligning his steps with Aisha.

Aisha did not answer. Tears have flooded his cheeks. Arriving in front of the guest room Aisha entered and was about to close the door, but was detained by Deva.

"Aisha, please don't do this! I used to do it because I wanted to fill my days!" Hugging Aisha.

"Please, for now leave me alone! I just want to be alone." While crying.

Deva relented and took a few steps back from the guest room door.

Aisha looked at Deva with eyes that were still shedding tears. Aisha closed the door pretty hard.

Deva ruffled her hair irritated, frustrated and feeling stupid.

"How did I get to be a Mafia and break into the Mafia Gang back then? You are useless!" Brought to himself.

In the room Aisha was still crying beside the bed while sitting down.

Like a dam whose levee broke, Aisha's tears came out so swift.

"How can you be a part of people like that Deva?!" He continued to cry.

Just then the phone in his pocket rang. Aisha took it and looked at the screen. The name of his eldest brother Aryan is shown on the screen of his phone. Aisha wiped her tears and picked up the phone.

"Hallo, brother! What's calling me?" While still wiping her tears with a hand that was not holding the phone.

"There's nothing, I just wanted to tell you that mom and dad told you to come home!" Reply Aryan.

"When?" With a hoarse voice.

"If it could be tomorrow. But Aisha, why is your voice like that? Are you sick? If you're sick tomorrow you don't have to come, next time you come!" With a worried tone.

"All right, see you tomorrow! Long ago, I still have a lot of work!" The phone connection has been cut off. Aisha dropped her phone on the floor, then returned to crying as hard as possible until the room echoed.

Outside the room, Deva is agitated because Aisha does not come out of the room. The quiet condition of the room brings a lull. The usual room was noisy with the laughter of his son who was playing with Aisha suddenly silent. Sid plays outside with Bi Asih, making the whole room in the house quiet and gripping makes Deva more anxious. Deva walked towards the bedroom door and stuck her ear to it. Still quiet, like there's no one in it.

Deva breathed a rough breath. Deva then tried to open the door.

Chequelek

The door opened, while the one who opened the door was only stunned.

The door's not locked? God, if you know this, why don't I try to open it from now on! But maybe he'll get angry, because he said he wanted to be alone. Now I will try to apologize to Aisha!

Deva cussed herself in her heart, then went into the room and approached Aisha who was still crying while sitting on the floor by the bed.

"Aisha" while holding Aisha.

"Let go Deva!" With a slight snapping and pushing Deva's body away from him.

"Aisha, please don't be like this! I'm sorry Aisha, all this because I want to fill the void when you're away from me! I did it so that no other woman would come into my life." Deva tries to persuade Aisha. "I beg Aisha, please forgive me! I promise, I swear to you and to Sid our son, I'm leaving the Mafia world!" While holding both shoulders Aisha.

Aisha started thinking about Deva's words then looked into Deva's eyes. Aisha sees earnestness in Deva's eyes and plans to apologize to Deva.

"Deva, husband. I don't want to be selfish, I can't leave you just because of this reality. Therefore, please keep your promise! Get out of the Mafia world, because you know it's dangerous. Not only is it dangerous to yourself, it can be dangerous to those around you!" While putting his hands together pleaded with Deva.

Deva grabbed Aisha's hands and held them, then nodded and understood Aisha's words.

Deva hugged Aisha.

"I'm sorry, Aisha, this is what I'm doing for you." Clutching Aisha tightly.

"I know, my husband. But the path you take is wrong, you know that it's not good! So, I'm asking you to keep the promise you said just now. Stop being a Mafia!" While releasing Deva's arms and staring at Deva and once again asking for Deva's sincerity.

"Yes, I promise. But please don't ever be like that again! I can't see you like that!" While stroking Aisha's hair then kissed her forehead very gently.

From the direction of the door Sid suddenly ran towards Aisha and Deva.

"Say! You're here, son!" Deva cried while standing up and approached Sid who was running towards him and Aisha, then carried Sid and brought him to Aisha.

"Yeah.. Yayayya.." Sid said as he clapped and laughed for some reason.

"Aisha, why is Sid laughing for no such reason?" While handing Sid over to Aisha.

"I don't know!" Ketus Aisha's.

"You're his mother, Aisha!" Reply Deva is no less.

"If I'm his mother, why?" While glaring sharply at Deva.

"Didn't a mother know more about her child's heart?" Deva again asked while smiling mischievously at Aisha.

"You're! Isn't he your flesh blood too?! So you should know his heart too! Moreover Sid is also a man like you!" Ketus Aisha makes Deva scratch her head that does not itch.

"Hehehe, you're right too!" Deva smiled clumsyly at Aisha's reply which had a point too and was unable to reply to Aisha's words anymore.
