THE WOUNDED EARTH

THE WOUNDED EARTH
THE PARENTS' DEMANDS



Ridwan POV


Ridwan Firdaus, the only son of one of the mining entrepreneurs in Kalimantan.


Not many know about him because indeed he does not like to accentuate himself on public surfaces.


After graduating from university in Kalimantan, Ridwan chose to look for his own business opportunities.


The father and his mother who are too affectionate can only monitor from afar how the development and association of the child.


***


I speed up my duck bike slowly, leaving Yati's house located in the alley.


I don't know why, there's always less if I don't see him for a day.


Her simple appearance, her sweet face made me feel at home for a long time to keep looking at her.


And certainly she is not like most women, sook loyal and realistic.Shadowed the face of someone who used to betray me...


I brake the motor suddenly,"why the shadow must be present...."


I took a deep breath and threw out angrily, hoping that thoughts of the past would fly away as I breathed.


The hospital gate was visible, I pointed the motor to the parking area.I rushed to the VIP room inpatient internal medicine.


I knocked on the door and entered slowly.


The mother and the woman next to her were seen sleeping.


Ms. Erna, the housekeeper who often accompanies and serves mom in the hospital if dad or I haven't come.


"Eh mas Ridwan...."


"Sorry, I overslept" said Erna politely.


"It's okay mbak."


"Bak come home just rest at home later I order a taxi yes.."tawarku.


"Well Ridwan mas," he replied slowly while cleaning the luggage.


I saw my mom sleeping very fast, maybe her health condition has started to improve.


"Sir, that's the cab I ordered and now it's waiting ahead."


"Okay, thank you, ma'am."


"Yes, be careful on the road."I replied, releasing his return to the door.


I looked at my mother's face, the woman who was always willing to understand whatever my will was.The woman who was always there to give me encouragement in learning to face life.


I held her palm gently and I kissed her forehead.


Speak softly in the silence of the night.


"Ma, Ridwan loves mama."


The rhythm of the night begins to sound, the incandescent bring the soul to a colorful realm called the dream world.


The flowing river water gave a cool atmosphere in the recesses of the soul, my footsteps halted in a well full of flowers.


A girl sits with her legs dangling, preoccupied with playing the splash of water spoiled.


Really, I'm fascinated.


From the other direction, a man came.


With a cold appearance it approached her and then reached out to the girl.


The girl looked at me, sad on her face.


But he finally received a helping hand from the man.


And they also went away.


"Yati, wait...don't go.!"


The fear of losing you makes me sad.


But you kept walking without hearing my screams, as if we were in a different dimension.


"Women...Wan, wake up."


"You're a dream, huh....?"my voice sounds loudly calling my name.


"Ah papa..??, um...?"


"Where is pa...?"ask me who is still carrying dreams.


"Who is wan...?"


"You dream tuh, sana quickly take ablution prayer dawn first."Papa's orders.


I also went to the ablution and did the dawn prayer.


***


"Breakfast first" papa asked.


"Yes pa" answered me by pouring sweet tea into a cup.


Mama enjoyed her breakfast with papa at her side.What a harmonious view.


Mom and Dad are a romantic and loyal couple.


During this time the mother who always accompanied and supported papa.From since papa has not had anything until now has everything.


Mama always accompanied wherever papa went.So did papa, like can not be separated with mama.


"Why wan, kok daydreaming...?"ask mama.


"Mama is very romantic papa, Ridwan so envious to see it." answered me while walking closer to them.


"What's the secret ma...?"asked me spoiledly hugging her shoulder from the side.


Papa just smiled at my behavior that always looks like a child in front of mom.


"Try asking your papa."The view of mama leads to papa who is again engrossed in sipping his black coffee.


"Lho kok papa, was that asked by mama....?"call papa.


"The bottom line is that if you are both affectionate, you must take care of each other.Saling trust is also loyalty."


"If you are a life partner, treat your partner like you treat yourself.How to make ourselves feel comfortable well so is our partner," explained papa.


"When do you want to propose to him, man...?mama's asking made me choke.


"Lamaran...?"


"Who is...?"answer me with shyness mixed with groggy.


"Who was his name, p...?"ask mom seduces.


"Yati, ma'am." replied papa with a smile.


"Yes, Yati."


"Dong wan's story, what kind of person...?"pinta mom.


I also sat in front of my mother and ventured to introduce the figure of Yati to my parents even though only through the story.


"Yati is just a girl from the village ma.She is a simple girl who is not like a high-class girl.


His life was also full of twists and turns a life full of struggles."


"She loved her mother and sister very much.Looks her life is only for her mother.In these years she spent her time taking care of her sick mother.Keel out if you want to work or buy kitchen needs alone."


"When do you want to propose..?"ask papa again in curiosity.


"Actually Ridwan wants it as soon as possible but needs some time pa.."tukas me.


"Indeed why...?"


"Now how far is your relationship...?"cut mom.


"At this time we are just a friend ma.Ridwan often gives a signal but his attitude is like calm water, difficult to guess"


"But Ridwan is the same he is in a close relationship anyway." I explained again.


"Faster is better wan."


"Mama can't wait to pet the grandchild, right pa...?"


"Rightly what your mama said was wan.Papa also wanted to enjoy the old days at home alone."


"It's time you led the company to replace papa now."


"When do you want to invite Yati to meet mama...?"


"Let mama who persuaded Yati to be your wife.Then Yati no heart with this handsome mama's son....?" seductive mama.


"Yes wan.Later if you take too long, can-can be in the sambar of another man,"tip papa makes my ears hot.


"Don't pa" I answered quickly making mom and dad laugh at her.


I put on a sulking face running back to hug my mom.


"Look at our little boy is still the same as before." said papa to mama.


My mom laughed while rubbing my head.
