We also arrived at a house
which is not foreign to me, this house I know very well, I often come here with my father
when I was in college. This is the first time I've been here after all this
longtime. The gate is open
“There's a Father inside?”
ask Patricia.
“There's a Buk Doctor, please
log in,” the security guard let us in.
After Rojali stopped the car, we got off
and walk towards the entrance of this big house, but not as big as a house
my family.
“I think you already know
whose home,” Patricia told me.
“Of course,” reply.
Zulfa and Rojali were only speechless in surprise to see me, of course
they just don't know whose house this is.
We walked into the house after the door
opened by this housekeeper, I saw that there was someone I knew very well
walking to greet us, he was Om Ali my father's close relative.
“Nugy Alfarizky, my son,
I haven't seen you in a long time, I can't believe you're getting awesome,” he said
while hugging me.
“Om still does
changed,” reply me while hugging her.
He smiled and looked at Zulfa.
“This is your lover?” tannya
pointing towards Zulfa.
“Iya, she's my lover,”
my answer.
He smiled proudly at me, then lowered a little
his head looked at Zulfa.
“I think Nugy is very difficult
to get a woman like you,” he told Zulfa.
“Om is very right, he
a man who was very cute when he approached me,” replied Zulfa quipped me while
the hand of Om Ali.
I can only be silent while understanding his meaning
very insinuating, all this time I never dared to express my feelings
the truth to him. But let's put that problem aside, because
there are far more important things at the moment.
“And you,” her word
to Rojali.
Rojali
just showing an astonished expression
“You who?” continued.
And
it makes me, Zulfa, and Patricia laugh.
“Why are you laughing,
i wrong? I never met him”
“Hahaha he's my best friend
what I found when I was starving on campus when I was in college first,” my reply
while laughing small.
Of course Zulfa hit me with a small laugh.
“Oh yes?”
“Iya Om, I'm Rojali man
coolest who starved when my money was taken by that bastard.” he said
stalking me.
“Hahaha you're so funny, though,
let's sit down, I know what you're coming for. It seems you
difficulty facing the eldest man from the Sultan Tambun family is yes,” said Om Ali
to Patricia.
“As you guys
tell me, he is very difficult to fight,” Patricia replied.
“Hahaha that's how men are
the one I admire this, her arrogant” while patting my shoulder proudly.
We followed him to enter the work room
hers, very spacious in my opinion with chairs and work, and there is space
his guest. We also sat in a guest chair in his office.
He took the drinks and the food in the fridge,
in his study, and then put it on the desk. And he sat down too.
“What makes you
here?” askinya.
“I want to know
everyone,” I replied firmly.
“This will take time
the old boy,” he said to me.
“Not a problem,” I replied.
“Good.”
He told me everything from the beginning
meeting with my Mom and Dad. He said that my father was a man
great, strong, and reckless like me, until he told me why
become a Political Elite in the Wilderness.
“Your father never wanted to
being a Political Elite, yet he had to do so because of Grandfather's will
mu. Then he tried to be in that position until he sacrificed time
with your Mother and you Children.”.
“I think you know right
how great is your father, how easily he can get to that position
elected to be one of the Political Elite in the Wilderness as
often you tell me Nugy..”.
“Your father is very working
hard Nugy, he fought there, liberating the rights of the people who were seized by the demons
that was, until many other elite people did not like him, however
not a few also amazed him.”.
“Up to the second period
he also still survives to be a winner in that position.he works hard, he works hard,
until he forgot about his health, he often had a bloody cough, tightness
breathing, and chest pains, he thought it was just the effects of fatigue,
but he did not recover from his illness.”.
“Your mother was worried then
he asked her to go for medication. On the way to the hospital, Dad
and your mother met Patricia who was alone because her car broke down
by an empty road..”
“Then your mother came down and
offering help, your father told his men to take care of Patricia's car, and
Ptricia also joined them in Jakarta. On the road they speak, of course,
until your Mom and Dad knew that Patricia was a Doctor.”.
“They are direct
talking about the symptoms felt by your father that never healed, you know,
while on the way to Jakarta.”.
“Your mother told
complaints from your father. Patricia who knows the cause is not
dare to mention the illness suffered by Ayamm. But bring your Mom and Dad
to confirm your father's illness, and once you get there your father's right in
handle by Patricia..”.
He was silent for a moment, looking at me as if hesitating to
continuing it. He breathed heavily, and then
continuing it.
“After your father checked,
it turns out that what Patricia was afraid of was right, that your father had cancer
Lungs and already spread to his brain.”
Like the roar of lightning. I feel
struck by lightning that seemed to want to punish me all this time. Swear by
regardless, my heart trembled after hearing an explanation from him, I was struck
stiff black rubbing. I have no power to endure the pain in my heart
the same pain my father had for my treatment of him yesterday.
Zulfa, who was silent at first, tried to calm me down
as if lifeless.
“Take that incident,
she doesn't want to be around your mom and her kids, she's embarrassed. As
a strong father, he does not want to show his weakness to you.”.
“He decided to
living alone in his apartment, he never wanted to live at home
denominational. Sometimes he comes home to meet your mother, but every
she came home, your mother always cried. As a man he didn't want to
treated like that, even though it was his own wife. That is why he
decided to never go home to see your mother again.”.
“Your mother feels lonely
and cry all night when you're not home, your sister's always confused
why does your mother cry. He asked and convinced your mother to be able to
understand everything he wants to know. Your mother also brought your sister to meet your father.”.
“And there's your sister
discovering this truth Nugy, he is devastated when he learns of his condition and age
his father who will not be able to last much longer.”.
“Your sister promised your father
that he will get the best grades at school and then get into college
the best height in this Wilderness, he also promised not to
leaving Mother. That's why your sister decided not to go abroad
as you'd expect. Because he knows that if your father dies, you're the only one
can support this family Nugy, and surely you're busy working.”.
“Then from there he
decided to go to college here so that someone would look after your mother while you
busy working.”
I can't stand my tears this time, why
everything has to be this way, my shati is completely destroyed after knowing the conditions
the one my family experienced. I began to hate the fate that God gave me this time.
I wonder in my heart why my father should be someone who
fragile? Why am I the only one not told earlier about this?
“You don't have to be wrong
nugy Sangka. Your family purposely didn't tell you so they wouldn't hinder
your potential to grow. You are a very great and reckless man, you,
you could even neglect your job to take care of your father. That's that
feared by your father if you know this.”.
“Your father is very proud
to you Nugy, he's proud of your progress with when your company succeeds
being one that counts in this Wilderness. By looking
your greatness is that he has nothing to worry about when he leaves you, because there is
his formidable son who would take his place as leader
family..”
He was silent for a moment and continued.
“Originally you know, he didn't
never ignoring your mother, she always sends you something your mother likes, she
always thinking about your mother. One time I came to see him at the airport. Him
told me she couldn't see your mother's tears.”.
*
· “·I won't be able to face death
if my wife keeps shedding her tears when she sees me.”.
“My money
soon Ali, I just want to see her smile when I'm already
close to death..”.
“Dan
my son Nugy, only he can make his mother smile, because it's just him
who can understand his mother besides me.”.
“Dia
must have been very angry with me because I always left Farida alone
home that has started to feel cold it..”.
“I
want to sell you the house so I can be relieved to see Farida living safe together
Nugy's my eldest..”.
“I
you know he wouldn't like it if the house had to be sold, but I'd rather not
if he feels lonely because there is no me by his side.”.
“But
let my Son Rudi complete his promise to me and you may cast out the Son
and my wife to get away from that house.”
“You
tell me what, I'm not gonna kick anybody out of that house, I'm gonna buy
that house if for the good of your family, even I would be willing to give it back
to them without asking for my money back.” reply Ali.
“I
glad to hear that, you are my most loyal friend Ali, but
I couldn't meet my Eldest Son to say anything about the house, but
I miss him so much.”
“You
got to see him, I don't think he'll be mad at you, he's a polite boy.” *
“He was brave
she was here to meet you, but she came home feeling very sad
for what you did to him.”.
· “·I didn't expect at the end of my life Nugy
she hated me so much, she even dared to act like that
to me..”
“But
there was one sentence coming out of her mouth that made me feel safe “anyone who destroyed my family he
is my enemy.” I did not think my son was an adult, even though he
consider me an enemy, but I'm deterred if he'll take care of my family
after I left.”
*
“Dia
it's too late, he should know all this.”
“Tak
need Ali. Just wait for my son to come to your house, he'll find out
yourself what is going on with all this.”
“Only
you can explain it, because Patricia promised my wife
to keep this secret. I think you understand very well, that there is no one
anyone who can miss the appointment with my wife.”.
“Dia
great woman, no wonder if I have great Children too.” *
“That's all the truth
all you want to know is Nugy. I really didn't think you were coming
to my house exactly as your father reckoned. You are indeed that child
miraculously, but I was disappointed at the behavior I never expected would come out of
you're Nugy, you're bragging in front of your own father..”
“And the photos you hold
it was a meeting between Patricia and your mother. When your mother received the news that
your father's illness is getting worse, and he is only able to give up on his husband
it would only wait for time to be picked up by the angel swiftly
fetch him.” He ended his explanation.
I who couldn't hold back my crying, started very
hating myself for what I've done to my father, I hurt
his heart as he endured all the pain he had suffered. After all this time
I never got her warmth, now I'm just overwhelmed by
every new truth I know.
I couldn't face all this, for a moment my soul
very fragile when I found out about it all, I shouted to my father,
my soul is not calm I feel like I am going crazy.
I realized they were trying to calm me down, though,
Zulfa hugged me tightly, and Rojali held onto my shoulder to calm me down,
the rest I didn't realize until I fainted unable to accept all this.
