TRUTH #3



Our


already at Mom's house at this time, I parked my car neatly


in the yard of this house. Then we got out of the car and I took Zulfa


to walk into the house. But he was busy looking around the house


this, it seemed that he was being amazed by how vast this house was.


“You guys finally arrived


also,” squealing Mother welcomes us.


“Mother,” Zulfa greet mom


while hugging my mother.


“Finally you can come


come to my house,” said Mother while stroking to Zulfa.


“Mother's house is very nice,


and spacious,” reply Zulfa.


            I just shook my head, and then I kissed my hand


Mom and the three of us went inside.


“Whose mother is same?” ask


my.


“Self” replied Mother.


“Oh yes? how to Mother


can you survive alone in a house this big?” ask Zulfa.


            Mom and I looked at him in shock.


it could instantly change its expression quickly, lest Zulfa knew about


our family problems.


“Mother is not alone,


the others are just away for a while,” replied Mom with a smile.


“Iya is away, with


his affairs Each of” ketusku without seeing them.


“Nugyyy” reprimand Mom


gentler.


“I want to go to my room


briefly,” I said then left them both.


            I don't care if Zulfa knows or doesn't about the problem


this household, if indeed Mother expects him to be my companion


he also needs to know from now on. That is if I can


get him that someone else already has.


“Ah, why in my life


always never stop thinking” I said annoyed


            I lay my body on the mattress in my room.


Room that made me comfortable when I lived here first. I miss you so much


warm times in this house, a time when Dad used to sleep with me in bed


me this. The time when I was always scolded by Mom, and Dad tried to mediate but


just got scolded by Mom. Everything has changed since my father


become a Political Elite Monster in the Wilderness. I don't know what the cause is


he can change, I'm not sure money and job titles can make him change


being a monster, I was always so sure that something was hidden


from me.


“You miss the room


this nak?” ask Mom who suddenly came and sat in my bed.


            I looked at him with my body still lying down, then


I took a deep breath and then breathed heavily. I changed my position


to sit beside him.


“I'm not just


miss my room, I miss the warmth that this house once held,”


my answer.


“We still remain as


that kid, your dad works for us, and your sister studies every day, no


there is a harm in him going to play on a holiday like this,” said Mother.


“Mother always just defends


them,” reply.


“Mother also defended you son.”


“For what mom defends


them? they just like not caring about Mom,” said I was getting upset.


“What is only me that


thinking of you, Mom?” my connection.


“No, everyone thought too


Mother,” answered.


“Cute stay


with me mom,” my door to Mom.


“Mom can't kid, this


our home, wherever you go I'm sure you'll still be back here.”


“Buktinya Mother always


alone here.”


“I know better


myself son, do you mind having to come all the way to visit me here?”


“It's not so Mom, I


just worry about you, be honest about what really happened to the family


this?” soft ask.


“Nothing happened Nugy.”


“Don't lie Mom, I


it's always a pity to see you holding everything yourself,” I said.


“Stop you pity


Mom, since when do you think you're stronger than me, until you have to


pity me Nugy.” gets mad at me.


“Yeah, this is how Mom is. Moms


only dare like this to me, if to your other child Mother does not


once scolded her, while the other man was Mother too


free him, why Mother always spills it the same as me Bu,” I said annoyed


to Mother.


“PLAKK” Mother precisely


slap me and leave me.


This way


My mother, she dares to act like this only to me, she always spills


sadness, and frustration to me. And this happens a lot, I just


I need to wait for you to stop being angry. I don't know what Mom did in her room


after he got angry with me.


            I sat in my room with a lot of pain


I feel, why am I always the target by Mother, not her child


there are two, can he not share fair to me and my brother? Come on, Mother


always made me a man who always kept my head down. As it is now


I was sitting down with all the pain in my heart over trouble


who is always present in my life.


“Your mother must be very


loving you Nugy,” said Zulfa who suddenly came to my room.


Tak


there was a time for me to be surprised at his arrival, I kept my head down I guess


he also saw my quarrel with Mom just now.


“Sorry. I was not intentionally


heard conversation. I was looking for a toilet but I was a tesasar


in front of your room,” connect with a pleading tone.


“Nothing,” reply me


gentler.


            Then he sat next to me.


“I don't know what


it actually happened in your family, but now I know that you and your mother


both feel the burden that occurs in this house,”


“He only dared


scolding me, he never scolded my Brother, not even my Dad”


“Your mother saved something


what you can't know Nugy.”


“He was always


I see, he always thought of me as a child, even for his problems


he never told me.”


“He definitely has


reason to hide it from you, and I'm sure he's very proud of you,”


he said again while holding my palm


“Your mother just doesn't want to


make you worry,”.


            I was still silent with my head down.


“You reckless man


wasn't he? you should know what to do, if you want to know what


the one your family hid from you.”


            Now I lift my head and look at him, I know


the meaning of his words, I would definitely not know if I asked him directly


to Mom, but I can definitely find her my way.


“I'll help you,”


he continued, holding tightly to my hand that he held from earlier.


I


looking at him with warmth. For the first time I saw something


from him I cannot speak with words. And for the first time


he could calm my heart that was feeling chaotic.


I


seeing his face that radiates sincerity to me, a face that seems to be


sympathize with me, but I don't feel offended at all. My reflexes


drawing my face closer to her, I felt the urge within me to


kissed her. I got closer to his face I didn't see any rejection


from her, then I kissed her lips for the first time.


Lips


thin sweetness that I can only see when I look at his face, now I have


feel it, even********** without mercy. And she returned my kiss


gently. We did it warmly until I decided to


let go.


Our


being silent and holding each other in a sense that is very difficult to explain, I dare not


looking at him, I had only done this for the first time.I did it unconsciously.


Really am.


“The power we must


“Eh—h yes looks like


i,” reply.


            We walked out of the room, I told Zulfa


to wait at the dinner table first, let me meet Mom,


I want to apologize to him at once. Zulfa followed my words.


Then


I walked into my mother's room, I knocked on Mom's door slowly


did not forget to say hello.


“Come on nak” says Mother


from the inside.


            I opened the door to my mother's room, and approached her.


now his position is my back.


“Buk, forgive me,”


softly said.


            My mother didn't answer, she still turned her back on me.


It seems that he is really mad at me this time.


“I'm just very upset


because I feel like something is hidden from me. But I get it now,


and I won't ask you again Mom,” I said gently


            He looked at me and immediately hugged me.


I


looking at her crying eyes, my heart trembled at my mother's eyes


my. Like he was holding something very sad in his heart. I


hugging her tightly, I've made her heart ache.


Longtime


I held her until she let go of her embrace.


“You get off first, please,


accompany Zulfa, he must have been waiting for us from earlier,” said Mother told me.


            I smiled and nodded to my mother.


            I walked over to Zulfa who was waiting in the room


guest. I saw him standing looking at our pictures


on the wall of this living room.


“You're looking at what?”


my many.


“She's Your Sister?” tannya


again pointing to a photo where I was alone with my sister.


“Iyaa.”


“Why you never


smile if you take a picture with your sister?”


“I intentionally.”


“Why?”


“My sister is not too


handsome like me, so in order for his existence not to be covered by me, I decided


to not smile if taking a picture with him.”


“Hahaha you insulted your sister


alone.”


“I'm not insulting, I


just talking facts.”


“But I actually saw


that your sister is more handsome than you.”


“Good if you


admit I'm handsome.”


“Not that I mean.”


“Hahaha, now you


just Shamefully admit it,” my words tease him.


            He did not answer and just stared hard at me.


“Your face reddened Zulfa,”


god again.


“Stop that Nugy,


don't make me.”


“Hahahaha,” I laughed


seeing her face getting red.


            I also get more cool to tease him, until Mom comes to invite


we eat.


“Sorry Zulfa Mother


leaving you, I took a shower for a while,” said Mother.


“Iya, it's okay Mom,”


his reply.


            We ate together, even though it was just the three of us


so happy to see Mom always smiling, I think with this she can


forgetting his sadness at my attitude.


Subsequent to


we talked in the backyard, it was my favorite place


since the house first stood. A large and full of flowers


which is maintained by Mother.


“This place is very good


Ma'am,” Zulfa said with pleasure.


“Sure, this is the place


the most I love Zulfa,” reply Mom proud.


“I so want to have


a place like this is in my house later,” said Zulfa cheerfully.


“Mother Nugy's taste will be


make a place like this for you,” reply Mom while smiling at me.


“Even I can


make it more beautiful than this, but I don't want to make it for you,”


by heating up Zulfa.


“You were busy


Warming up my Nugy,” retorted while throwing a small stone at me.


“Hahaha Already-Easy” Mom


mediate us.


“Party since when is the style


talk you into like us?” ask Zulfa.


            I stared at Zulfa, I also just remembered this.


the first time we met from always using the Ala-ala language of Jakarta children,


but now he speaks a standard language as is often the family


we did. But what is the reason for zulfa to come along to talk like us?


I was curious about the answer.


“It's because he Bu” says


Zulfa.


“Lho why can?” ask


Mother.


            I was also silent in wonder.


“Since he came to ketoko


my first time, ma'am, he gave a bad impression of his visit, that,


that's why I've been following up talking like this,” replied Zulfa showed


threatening expression at me.


“What you do


Nugy?” ask Mom who seems to be getting angry at me.


            I was still astonished and did not answer. I looked at Zulfa


sharp, he's not afraid.


“Even travel here


he made me cry earlier,” said Zulfa who was getting hotter Mom.


“You really are


shameful man,” said Mother and immediately took a broom to hit me.


            I looked at Zulfa again with a threatening look. Him


it just returned me with a small look.


Shucks, I said inside


hearts.


            Mom's been chasing me nonstop, I can't run, I


feel sorry for Mom if she keeps chasing me, so I just want to be beaten by her.


It doesn't hurt either.


Laughter


and jokes adorned our meeting today. After the incident that made Mom


sad earlier I was so relieved to see Mom laughing like this.


 It was late afternoon, I had to go back home


at my house, I also have to deliver Zulfa before late at night, I'm afraid the Papa


would be really mad at me if I took her away too late.


“Mu we go home first yes,”


my spoken.


“You must promise to


play here again,” reply Mom.


“Surely Mom, I will


very happy if Nugy invites me here again.”


            Then we touched Mom's hand as we walked


the car he told me.


“Thank you son,” the


said it.


I


smiled at him and immediately hugged him.


“Be careful on the road,


take him directly to his house,” Mother's orders.


“He's calm ma'am,


at most I'm just a little khilaf,” I said teasing Zulfa.


“Your mind is slovenly Nugy,”


ketus reply.


            I laughed to see his expression


red quickly if I'm tempted.


Then


we went home and left my mother alone at home, which is now gone


warmest first. This house is full of mysteries that I do not know. I'm sure


with me knowing that, I can fix it and restore it


the warmth is again in this house.


I'll be right away


to find out what Mother had hidden from me, I said in my heart.
