The First Step with Courage

After a while, my chest started to get a little relieved and the water that came out of my eyes had already stopped. I sat down and leaned against my mother's body.

“Mama sorry yes dear, actually mama does not want us to move to a place that we do not recognize. Besides mama also knows you are already very familiar with your friends.” Mama said to me.

“L-then, k-why did mama agree to it?” I said while still sobbing.

Hearing my words just now, mom suddenly hugged me softly while answering, “That's it, mama knows Moa-chan better than papa. Mama believes that Moa-chan will be happy wherever Moa-chan is. Because mama also knows, that Moa-chan is a very nice and cheerful boy that mama has.” Mama said while pinching my nose.

I don't know what happened, after hearing my mother's words, spontaneously my spirit felt fully filled again, the pain in my chest that I had felt was no longer felt.

“Sorry mom, Moa is not honest with mama, actually Moa does not want us to move, but how else, papa ‘kan promoted by his boss, so inevitably Moa must obey papa.” I said to mama.

“It's okay koq, mama also understands, it's mama who wants to apologize for the decision papa and mama.” My mother answered hearing my words just now.

After a while, my mother suddenly kept me away from her body.

“So, how about now we make lunch together, ok?” mama said, smiling softly at me.

I nodded my head while smiling cheerfully at my mother.

…

Arriving in the kitchen, I saw papa sitting alone at the dining table accompanied by a glass of water he was holding.

When Papa looked at us, he looked shocked. Suddenly, my mother and I became shocked at my behavior just now.

“Ah, mom, Moa-chan, papa thought you guys were going out.” Papa said as if he were confused.

“Not really, mama and Moa-chan were just a little chat earlier in the room, yes ‘kan, Moa-chan?” mama said with a smile at me while winking one eye which then we sat in front of papa.

“Ah, so yes.” Papa said back to sit relaxed on the dining table chair.

“By the way, papa wants to talk about something with you guys, is it okay?”

Looks like papa is in serious mode right now, I said inwardly.

“Talking about what, pa?” replied the mama who looked curious about papa's words just now.

Suddenly he got up from the chair and bowed towards us. I'm confused by papa's behavior, what's the matter?

“Papa apologize.” Say papa while still bending.

I was more confused by papa's words just now.

“Papa has forced papa's will on you, so papa apologizes.” Continue papa.

“Already papa, papa no need to bend.” Mama said she felt awkward about what papa did.

Then papa lifted his body back up while taking back a sitting position in the chair.

“To be honest, papa also feels maybe you will hate papa for papa's decision, suddenly papa comes home and says that we will move house. So, papa thinks maybe you should apologize to you after arriving at a new house later, because that's why, papa apologizes.” Obviously papa for what he did earlier.

After hearing papa's explanation, mama glanced at me while smiling while nodding her head.

Ah, maybe I understand what mom meant.

“Emm, papa, about that, Moa would also like to apologize.” My speech.

“Eh, why?” ask the surprised father about my words.

“Moa has also acted selfishly, and has been dishonest to mom and dad. Actually, Moa was nervous when she heard that we were moving house. Moa thinks what about Moa's friends who are there. But, now that Moa is okay koq, after all papa did this for the sake of mama and Moa ‘kan? So Moa doesn't deserve a protest to papa.” My answer to Papa explains.

“Ehh, it turns out that mama's son is already big.” Mom smiled as she hugged me.

“So that's it, papa, papa don't have to blame yourself papa anymore. Papa already understands now ‘kan the situation? So papa just focus on papa's work, don't worry about us. Yes ‘kan, Moa-chan?” said my mother who was still hugging me.

“Thank you, papa is grateful you guys are part of the papa family. Papa is very happy.” Papa said while shedding tears.

“Ara, what's papa crying?” said the mother who was shocked at the behavior of papa.

“T-no, no, it's just sweat. Yes, just sweat.” Papa said while wiping his tears.

“Ara, not to be expected, it turns out papa is a crybaby.” Mama said to puss papa.

“Papa says papa doesn't cry!” I shouted at us.

Thankfully, the awkwardness of our family has disappeared, I hope our family stays like this forever. Hope in my heart.

…

The next day, I woke up early as usual. When I got to the living room, I saw my mom sitting alone watching television.

“Ma, papa where?” I asked my mother who surprised her a little.

“Oh, Moa-chan turns out. Papa has been off to work since. Does Moa-chan want breakfast first? Mom, prepare first.”

“No ma, later only. Moa is still not hungry koq.” I answered because I saw my mom relaxing.

“Oh so yes, then just say if you want breakfast, ok?” mama said to me as she rubbed my head.

I looked at the television that was currently broadcasting the weather.

The announcer said that today it would be a lot of rain.

Do I have to wait for papa to come home at the terminal while carrying an umbrella? I thought while smiling alone.

“What's Moa-chan?” Mom asked who saw me smiling to herself.

“Ah, no nothing koq ma. Moa was just thinking, maybe the announcer is lying to us. Hehehe.” I answered while laughing to my mother.

“Ahahaha, you are just there. If the announcer lied to us, maybe a lot of people would be angry because he was lying. Later punished. Hahaha.” Mama replied to my joke.

“Iya also yes ma.” My answer was saying my mother just now with a smile.

After a while, mom suddenly clapped her hands which made me a little surprised. While looking at me, my mother then said, “oh yes Moa-chan, mama wants to talk about something.”

“What's the matter ma?” I was wondering what Mom said just now.

“Are you ready for school?” Ask your mom while putting on a serious face.

Hearing that, I immediately fell silent. I thought, maybe it's time for me to go to school again, because if only this year I didn't go to school, I'd be left one year behind by my old friends. Maybe I'll be laughed at by them for staying in class.

“Ah sorry, maybe Moa-chan is still not ready. It's okay koq, mama also hardened.”.

“No ma! Moa is ready. Moa doesn't want to stay in class. Later Moa can be laughed at by Moa's former friends.” My answer cuts off the words of mama who has not yet stroked.

Hearing my words just now, mama just looked at me while dumbfounded. I said in my heart, ahh, maybe mama thinks I'm a weird kid.

Then suddenly mama rubbed my head with a gentle smile while saying, “It turns out that mama's son is already big.”

Hearing this, my heart felt warm and comfortable.

“Alright, then, we leave tomorrow for Moa-chan school, ok?” said mom to me.

Yosh, from now on I have to study more, so that I do not waste the struggle of mama and papa.

“Papa go home.”

Hearing the screams just now, spontaneously made me and mama a little surprised.

“Welcome, pa.” said mama while approaching papa who is already in front of the family room door.

“Why go home fast pa? is there anything left?” Ask the confused mother because she saw that papa had come home.

“Ah no, papa asked by papa boss to take a day off first, maybe papa boss thinks papa still have to rest because he just moved.” Answer papa while giving papa's bag and work coat to mama.

“Ah, Moa-chan is awake. Good morning Moa-chan.” Said the father who saw me watching him.

“Good morning papa.”

Papa then sat next to me and opened the socks he was still wearing.

“Oh yes, has Moa-chan had breakfast?”

“mmh, not yet.” I answered while glancing at papa.

“Then by chance, papa hasn't had breakfast either. How about we have breakfast together?” said papa while rubbing my head.

I nodded in agreement to the papa's invitation.
