We Are Different But We Are One

Chapter 9 Calling Papa and Mama

We talked long enough.

Talk about what activities we do.

"Antonius what will you aspire to?" ask uncle Yanto to me.

Antonius wants to be uncle's advocate.

Doain Antonius, uncle, like uncle and aunt, was all successful.

I said back to Uncle Yanto.

"Wahh your ideals are so great, uncle same aunt will always doain you, must keep the spirit yes.

If you need anything, you can tell the same uncle aunty or nga the same Astrid.

We will always help you and support you.

You are already considered like uncle's own son, while you know the same uncle aunt still wants to have a son but, can no longer.

Uncle wants to say something to Antonius.

Did Antonius want to call uncle with aunt as papa with Mama.

But if Antonius does not want to be okay, uncle nga maksa kok.

Because even though uncle already has Astrid but it still feels incomplete.

So, do you want to consider her, son?" uncle Yanto said to me holding my hand and tears were beginning to stem.

I who could not bear to see uncle Yanto pleading with me, I finally accepted their request.

"Uncle auntie don't have to beg like this.

Antonius wants to call uncle Papa Mama's aunt.

But uncle don't cry".

I said with a smile towards them.

And without warning Uncle Yanto hugged me tightly.

I even heard uncle Yanto's sobs.

"Thank you son, thank you very much.

You want to call us papa" uncle Yanto told me.

"It turns out like this it feels like parents who want to have children.

There is a lot of work they do to get a child.

In this country, many parents abandon their children, even on the street, and the most cruel of them are made in a gift to make money, and their own pleasure" I said in my heart.

So did auntie and Astrid who were already crying.

"Thank you son, thank you very much".

Uncle Yanto said to me.

Yes Uncle, you're the same.

Now uncle, aunt, and Astrid don't cry anymore.

Later Antonius so follow sad youh said while joking.

My son, I'm going to cry again.

"Antonius, here son, mama wants to hug you too, papa's time is only in the hug" said mama Astrid.

I immediately walked over and immediately hugged Astrid's mother.

"Thank you son, you've agreed to our request".

Astrid's mom said to me.

"Yes aunty, uh Antonius means yes ma".

"You are a good boy, son.

Mama knows this is the first time for you, but next time don't be too stiff.

We will always support you and Astrid.

You will get the same happiness later.

Because you are our children" Astrid told me as she hugged me tightly.

"Yes ma, Antonius nga will be stiff again.

Thank you also for considering Antonius as your son, while we are from an underprivileged family, some even call us burden-bearers in our village.

They say we are only damaging their environment, but we only sell food.

But mama, papa and Astrid want to consider us as your family.

Anthony is glad that there are still people who want to consider us family.

Not even our own family would want to consider us.

Just because our economy is lacking. Thank you ma, pa and Astrid" I said to my mother.
