The Untouched Heart

Chapter 244 - An Unexpected Visit

“Are you guys just going to stand by and not let me in?” ask Mama to both of us. I'm coming closer.

“Ma-pardon me, Auntie. Come, please come in,” take me. “We will have breakfast, will Auntie eat with us?”

“Of course,” he said cheerfully. I looked at him confused.

We had breakfast together in the dining room. Hadi asked me something and I answered as much as I could. Sometimes my mom adds. Slowly my son began to dare to talk to his grandmother. Dira is too.

After breakfast, Mama invited me to talk alone, so I asked Yuyun to accompany the children in the family room. I took my mom to the living room. Liando came to serve snacks and warm drinks for us.

“You must be surprised by my arrival,” Mama said with a smile on her face. Yeah, God. It's been a long time since I've seen him smile that softly at me. This must be a dream. I'm still asleep and haven't really woken up.

“Iya. Moreover, Auntie came so early. Does Auntie not take medicine and do regular gymnastics?” manyworry. His smile is getting wider.

“Why are you doing this, Zahara?” tanyanya slow. I looked at him not understanding. “Why do you keep being nice and caring to me after what I did to you?”

“Tante is my husband's biological mother, the man I love so much. How can I not care for Aunt who has been a mother for so long?” I'm holding haru. “I understand Auntie's anger because I'm guilty. I've let Aunt and Papa down.”

“Yes, you disappointed me so much. We've been together six years since you married my son. I have a second child that I could never have because of my gynecological condition, that's why I love you so much. That's also the reason I didn't urge him to divorce you when you didn't also give him a child.

“While you didn't love him too much during your years together, I believe you'll fall in love with him one day. You are my proud daughter-in-law. Wherever I go, whoever I meet, I always talk about you. My chest was filled with happiness every time I saw their envious faces.

“But your betrayal has broken my son's heart. You also destroyed me. What were you thinking at that time, Zahara? What is lacking in my son? I know that he's not as handsome as your ex. But after she treats you like a queen, we love you like our own daughter, you still feel less?”

“I'm sorry, Aunt,” I said softly.

“I know that you regret your actions. I also know that you are not what people say you are. You are loyal to my son until this very moment. But I can no longer trust you. That's why I want you to split up.

“Za, all my life, I've never hurt my son. You are a mother, you must understand how much it hurts me to see my son's heart break. Hendra was a dutiful, tough kid, and never cried in the face of any problems. You're the only one who can make it hard to stop shedding tears.

“I hate you so much for what you did. I want you out of my son's life forever. Because of the many people in this world, only you have managed to hurt him. And I don't want the same thing to happen again.

“Unfortunately, as Hendra experienced, I can't hate you forever either. I saw for myself how you paid for your mistakes with every suffering you had to endure. When you want to end your life that day, I want to love you again. I want to start with you all over again.

“But I can't trust you completely. I'm afraid you'll hurt my son again. No. gabe. I'm afraid you'll hurt me again. I'm not ready to get hurt anymore.” Mama fell silent. We were both crying with teary faces.

She took a deep breath, then took it out slowly. “When you persuaded me to go ahead with the operation. I know I'm ready to forgive you. But I want to test you again.

“I deliberately brought the doctor closer to you because I knew from his gaze, he liked you. But you are not interested in him. I deliberately stayed on Nora's side, and Hendra would rather stay with you.

“Tante, what does Auntie do?” I ask who will approach him immediately.

“No. Don't come near me. Back to your seat,” the command. I did not care and knelt in front of him. He gave me a little push. “Please, back seat, Zahara.”

“No. Aunt is my husband's parents. Auntie can't kneel to me. I beg. Don't do this, Auntie,” my door that is still trying to help her stand up.

“I have to do this, Zahara, or I will never feel calm,” he insisted. I don't care about it. “Basic stubborn boy.” He patted my head slowly. I just pouted looking at it. Then she wiped the tears on my face.

“I'm sorry. Forgive your mama. I hurt you on purpose and I'm not proud of that. I also apologize for deliberately testing your loyalty and love for my son. I've been so mean to you, please, forgive me. Will you forgive me and accept me back?” tanyanya expectantly.

I couldn't answer because I was crying like a child. I put my head on her lap and we cried together. Yeah, God. Thank ye. I don't care about all the pain I've been through. I also don't want to bother with all the painful sentences I've heard. Mama wants to take me back, that's enough.

“Mama!! Mama!” Suddenly the door of the room opened. Hadi, Dira, and Ara simultaneously entered with worried faces. Ara barked loudly towards Mama. Dira approached me, while Hadi stood in the background of me and Mama.

“Granny don't get mad at Mama. If Grandma makes Mama cry, Grandma can leave this house!” said Hadi while pointing towards the door. I looked at him in disbelief. Was my voice so loud that it reached the next room?

“Hadi, don't talk that way to Grandma. You misunderstood, Son.” I held her hand so she could look at me.

“But Grandma has made Mama cry so hard. Is Mama okay?” she then looked angrily at Mama. “Nice granny, already made my mama cry.”

“Iya, evil grandma. My grandmother made my mother sad often. Just hit grandma.” Mama held Hadi's hand and pointed it at her body. I immediately prevented it.

“No. Papa says you can't hit a woman. I can only hit bad men who hit women.” Hadi immediately pulled his hand back.

“Ah, you remind grandma about grandma's next task.” My mother smiled meaningfully.

“What task, Aunt?” I smiled as she touched my cheek to wipe my tears. Hadi and Dira also did the same thing, then we helped wipe Mama's tears.

“Bring that stupid kid to go home.”

    While in an apartment.

    Hendra felt a cold wind suddenly blowing making his hair bristling. He looked towards his coach who was looking at him in a daze. Realizing that only he felt the wind, he locked up his intention to ask.

    Returning to his apartment, Hendra felt lonely. He misses his wife and child, but is too stubborn to go home. He only wants to go home when his wife comes to pick him up. Then he felt the cold wind return. And at the same time, there was a signal sound sign that someone entered the door code.
