The Heart-Bitter

Peacemaking

Andri had just arrived at her house after delivering Citra, when she was about to close the gate she was surprised by the arrival of a luxury sedan that suddenly stopped in front of her house. Shortly after, the driver of the luxury car walked over to Andri.

"Good afternoon, sorry to interrupt, is this really Mr. Andri's house and Julia's mother's?" The driver asked politely.

"Thum, whose father is it? And what's the need for us?" Andri replied in a surprised tone but remained polite.

The old man did not answer, he just smiled, then he approached the door of the luxury sedan passenger seat. The window opened a little, Andri could not see who the passengers were because the windshield was very dark. Shortly after the two car doors opened, a pair of humans descended in sparkling clothes, andri gasped in shock when he recognized the two.

"Assalamualaikum son Andri, how are you son? " The old man spoke to greet Andri, when Andri was only glued, he did not expect his two in-laws to come to his small hut. He hesitated to answer, but a polite greeting and a friendly look emanated from the two. This was obviously different when the last time Andri met them.

"Okay sir, Thank God, please come in, sir, Mom!" Andri tried to regulate his irregular breathing, Andri still did not believe what he was experiencing at this time. Andri awkwardly invited the two to walk into the house. Andri is indeed Julia who is still busy in the kitchen.

"There's a guest for you, meet in front."

"Who?" Julia asked in wonder.

"Come away!" Andri shrugged, pretending not to know.

Julia immediately walked out of the kitchen, just a few steps, she stopped and was fixated on arranging both guests. His mother who had seen Julia immediately got up from the sofa and half ran towards Julia, just directly Julia hugged him.

"Julia, how are you, son?" Sorry Mama.." The two women hugged each other and cried at the same time. After her mother released a hug, Julia approached the man who had stood up with teary eyes, Julia had no doubt immediately hugged him.

"I'm sorry Papa Julia, I'm sorry Andri, I just found out everything from David, he told me everything. Forgive us for abandoning you, our own flesh and blood." She said as she continued to hug and caress Julia's hair.

"Oh yeah, where's David? Why isn't he coming with you?" Julia asked with a worried tone.

"David left home after revealing the truth about you to us, because we initially rejected the aoa he revealed. He left that way without bringing anything, even his cell phone was left behind, but you don't worry, you guys, yesterday he gave your address with another nomoer to my phone and said that if we haven't made peace with you he won't be coming home."

"God! I didn't think David could do that!" But papa called him, right?Julia was still worried because she loved her sister so much.

"He won't answer a message let alone pick up the phone, but we just send a picture of us together to that number, he needs proof, not an appointment." Julia's father laughed.

"So you're here because you lost David, not because you lost me?" Julia sulking.

"Don't misunderstand Julia, we're completely empty without you guys, I used to be very busy, taking care of my business and political career, now the candidates are starting to strategize the campaign, a lot of people come to my house, a lot of people come to my house, expecting something from me, but my own children don't take away a penny of my fortune, don't want to rob me of my popularity, that's where I feel like I lost you, once again we're sorry, we're sorry, and of course the expulsion of you from my house, when I think about it again I feel even more despicable than animals." Julia's father looked at Andri and her family with teary eyes.

The four of them are now sitting on the sofa in Andri's living room, Julia is in the middle of her parents, occasionally she leaned spoiled with her papa, occasionally with her mother. The atmosphere was quite haru when Julia told me how she and Andri lived their lives after being driven from home. Andri is just him.

"Where is Mama's grandson? From earlier invisible?"

"Two Ma! You're taking a nap, let me wake them up!"

Andri kept walking in and out of her children's room, not caring about her parents-in-law's protests that prevented her from waking her children. Shortly thereafter Andri led his two sons whose eyes were still reddened by being awakened from their slumber.

"Ramdan, Syifa, it's Oma and Opa you guys let's kiss her hands!" Andri ordered his two children gently, both of whom were immediately struck with a tight hug from Andri's two in-laws. Julia's mother did not want to take them out of her arms, she took Syifa to sit in her arms.

"Smazy and beautiful Oma's grandchildren."

"Oma said Dad lives abroad, abroad but where the hell is Oma? Far huh? Koq Dad and Mamah said they could not come to Oma's house on a motorbike, had to use an airplane he said, "Syifa asked innocently.

"Now that you are near the koq, you can come to Oma's house anytime, take Father and Mamah there, later Oma will pick you up by car." Oma answered gently, her eyes glazed over, she looked at Andri and cuddled as a sign of gratitude. Andri and Julia did not teach their children revenge.

Three hours later they were still chatting to let go of longing, suddenly came in front of the gate of the house of a very new SUV car. Julia's father came out and talked to the owner of the car, and soon he came back in. He approached Syifa who was still sitting on her bosom.

"Syifa is a car for you, make Dad take Mama to Opa's house yes," He put the car keys held Syifa. Andri doesn't know what to say. He just kept quiet.

Finally in time they had to go home but were not satisfied - Oma kissed her two grandchildren. They were about to drive the two to the car, suddenly Andri patted his shoulder.

"Andri I know you have experience in the workshop, you can be my successor to continue our company. Her field is not much different from your expertise, especially Julia can also take care of her administration. You're the right fit for this."

"Come on Pa, let's talk about how good it is!"

The father understood, Andri would not immediately agree to his offer, so many years never once came to ask anything from him, even though they lived hard and knew that his in-laws were rich, he said, that is enough to show how the ego of an Andri is built.

"All right!" Once again I apologize for what I have done so far, and I thank you for taking good care of my daughter and my grandchildren." The father thrust his hand which was greeted with a wide smile on Andri's face.

"Did Papah run again this year as a legislative figure?" Andri asked while accompanying her in-laws walking to their car.

"No Andri! We've agreed enough to get here, we almost lost our conscience when we got there, lost you and David. Politics is not healthy for my soul" Andri's father-in-law smiled broadly, his wife hugged Julia with a smile.
