"I'm here to ask for your help, Lan" Lisa said with a clear face.
"Help?" ask me with a cynical look. Bune came in to give me some privacy and Lisa talked to each other.
"I heard rumors of you returning to this village with a boy. May I know whose child it is?" ask Lisa.
"My child. Only my son!" firmly answer.
"You still don't know who your son's real father is?"
"I told you, My son's sky. Only son. I don't care and don't want to know who his father is" I replied with a sigh. Lisa's question really hurt me.
Lisa silence.
"You just want to ask that? Please leave if that's all you want to say" throw me out.
"No, I'm not done yet" Lisa said as she************* her hand.
"Your son's name is Sky?" ask Lisa.
I was silent not to. Waiting for what Lisa really wants to say.
"Mas Tama has liver cirrhosis" Lisa said.
I just raised my eyebrows. Waiting for Lisa reveals what she really meant by coming here.
"Let me tell you a little. Mas Tama and I got married three months after graduation. But until the second year of our marriage, we were not blessed with a baby"
"Oh, congratulations. I'm sorry I couldn't attend your wedding" I told Lisa.
Lisa was unaffected by my insinuations and continued her story.
"At the urging of my two in-laws finally me and Mas Tama checked themselves. It turned out that the doctor told me that I had severe endrometriosis that caused me trouble getting a baby"
"I've done all kinds of treatment and hormone therapy, but the results are nil. I've asked Mas Tama for a divorce, but he's not willing. He feels indebted to me. My marriage and Mas Tama was not based on love, but a feeling of indebtedness"
"After knowing my condition, Mas Tama often gets drunk. No days without alcohol. Until finally now Mas Tama has liver cirrhosis due to his habit of drinking. Mr. Hasto died two years ago, and Mr. Ani is old. It is impossible to be a donor. My blood type isn't the same as Mas Tama's, so I can't be a donor"
"Mas Tama must immediately get a donor if he wants to survive" Lisa said with tears that began to linger.
"Then what do you mean?" I'm starting to understand Lisa's line of thinking.
"Let Heaven undergo DNA testing. If it is true Sky son of Mas Tama, I beg you to allow Sky to be a donor for Mas Tama. I just need your permission, Lan" Lisa told me.
I laughed cynically.
"Are you being funny, Lis?" ask me cynically.
Lisa silence.
"Better with me for a few years doesn't make you understand my nature?" I was fiery with Lisa.
Lisa remained silent.
"Don't expect me to allow Sky a DNA test, let alone be a donor to Tama. I never want to know who the father of Heaven is. To me the sky is only my son" I said fiercely.
"You're crazy! If Heaven were really Tama's son, do you think I'd willingly slash my son's body with a scalpel? No, Lisa. I'll never be willing"
"Please, Lan. I'm sorry and Mas Tama. Whatever, whatever I do as long as you allow Heaven to donate her heart" Lisa got up from her seat and began to kneel.
"No, Lisa. Now please go. There's nothing more I can talk to you about! My decision is final" I'm kicked out.
Slowly Lisa got up from her kneeling position. His eyes look at me.
"You've always been arrogant. You know what the real reason is for me to betray you?"
"It's true that I love Mas Tama, and I can't bear it until he has to go to jail. But my main reason is because I'm fed up with you. I'm sick of always being compared to you. I'm sick of always being overshadowed by your beauty and cleverness!"
"You who are always beautiful and smart will never understand my feelings. You won't know my sadness when I come across a guy I like stealing glances at my best friend. You'll never understand how people always underestimate me when I'm with you!" Lisa has been pouring out all her heart all this time.
"Then it's my fault? I never asked you to be my best friend. You're the first one to approach me and make me friends" I'd never be scapegoated for Lisa's feelings of inferiority. I don't want to be scapegoated for Lisa's betrayal of me.
"Basic of a proud woman. I swear to you that you will never be happy" Lisa said with anger. Lisa left without saying goodbye.
After the sound of Lisa's motorbike was not heard I sat in the living room chair.
God, why is this day so hard for me. I wail. I don't know what I'm lamenting.
"Your friends are home, Nduk?" ask Bune.
I just nodded.
Without saying much Bune held me in his arms. Bune patted my back patiently. Letting me spill all my grief.
"Which sky, Bune?" I asked after being satisfied to cry in my mother's arms.
"Main games in his room" Bune replied briefly. Bune never demanded I tell a story. Usually I myself will tell the burden that is pressing on my chest.
Like this time, I told you everything that happened to me today. Bune listened to my story carefully, not one bit interrupting.
"It's okay, Nduk. Whatever decision is right. Knowing who Sky's father is won't change anything, it'll hurt you even more"
"Bune knows there's still trauma in your heart. Do what you think is right. There is no guarantee that Sky is Tama's son. Your decision is correct" Bune supported the decision I made.
I feel very grateful to him. She was the best mother I ever had.
After being content to spill all my heart, I decided to rest. I need sleep to refresh my mind and heart. Actually I was ready when I decided to return to this village, that these kinds of events would definitely trouble me. But when I was faced with the real event, my heart still felt bitter and torn. The wounds and wounds were so deep.
Wulan hoped that tomorrow there would be no more events that would drain her emotions. Today was so exhausting for Wulan.

~Liver cryrosis is the final stage of liver disease. This condition is characterized by healthy liver tissue replaced with permanently damaged scar tissue. As a result, the liver function does not work properly.
~Endometriosis is a condition when the tissue that forms the inner lining of the uterine wall grows outside the uterus. This tissue called the endometrium can grow in the ovaries, intestines, fallopian tubes (egg canals), *****, or in the rectum (the final part of the intestine that connects to the anus).
Before menstruation, the endometrium will thicken as a place to attach to the fertilized egg. If you are not pregnant, the endometrium will shed, then out of the body as menstrual blood.
In the case of endometriosis, the endometrial tissue outside the uterus also thickens, but cannot shed and exit the body. The condition can cause complaints of pain, can even cause infertility or female infertility.
