Endless Longing
12 Years Ago Part 3 - Guilt
Two weeks Salwa took care of the transfer. Take a picture of the box with Lia and Fitri, say goodbye to the class. The road - mother's. Indeed, for many years his mother was busy, he became a treasurer in the West Java Provincial Government, since his mother rarely had time, night service sometimes weekends and sudden meetings. And only this time Salwa enjoys alone time with mom. Salwa wanted to feel to tell the Father, but did not dare, afraid to add to the wounds of the mother. Salwa also does not have HP and does not know no father HP. It is not hearty to see the sad gaze of the mother every discussing the Father.
Om Hari arrives with Raihan, Sani's 5th grade elementary school sister. After all the goods came in, Salwa said goodbye
"Mom, sorry if ade to Bogor, later if high school or college try to go back to Bandung again yes" mother hugged Salwa
"sorry mother yes," whispered the mother
"hmmm, what exactly is going on Mom? ade doesn't understand yet"
"all right, inget well there, do not ngerepotin ateu Hana and om Hari, if there is anything contact mother"
"mom's going to be there, right?"
"don't know, there's something I need to sort out"
"the trial is Mom?"
"ga's just that anyway, mom's hard to explain"
"mom's problem at the office?" guess Salwa
"don't think about it, just follow the advice of om Hari, I've talked a lot of the same om" said the mother while rubbing Salwa's head.
"Asti, we say yes" said om
"Day, take care of Salwa. sorry to have taken care of, if it's done I promise to see Mom"
"yes, remember Asti's mother, pity especially now sickly"
"iya Ri, sorry" said the mother, clearly a look of regret on her face
"Rai, saying goodbye to uwa"
Raihan kissed the mother's hand "pamit ya wa, Salwa tea let Raihan take care" he said, patting his chest
"great ponakan uwa, if there are the same kinds of tea Salwa keep ya"
"okay wa, mayu tea where the bag let Raihan bring"
"ga nothing Rai is heavy"
"it's okay, Salwa tea is good never tell, try Sani baweeel abis tea"
"hahaha" Salwa and Raihan walk together towards the car
"again thanks Hari, greetings to Hana" said the mother
"go to Bogor and there's Salwa"
"it's a shame Ri"
"It's okay, Salwa in Bogor aja Hana happy, especially Sani really welcome Salwa"
"thank you, Ri, I've lightened my load"
"patience is a test" said Hari, patting Asti on the shoulder
... *******...
On the way, Salwa sat in front, Raihan wanted to sleep he said he was sitting in the back.
"the school of Mutiara Hikmah you and Sani in Junior High School, Raihan and Ridho in Elementary School, is not a public school, but the distance is affordable as atheu and om, usually who like to drive Ateu Hana, the, she works at 9 o'clock if you get in the morning" Salwa listens to you about her new school
"there is lunch because it is full day until 4 o'clock school, excursion activities every Thursday and Friday afternoon. Sani joined the Mading and swimming, Raihan futsal and swimming, if Ridho karate same broadcast. Salwa follow what excise?"
"in SMP yesterday did not participate om exkul, only active in OSIS only"
"good dong OSIS too, see the brochure there is a photo of exkul activity there, maybe someone likes it?"
Salwa flipped back her school brochure, lacking interest. From earlier what Salwa thought was the problem of her parents. Salwa wants to know the truth but om Hari doesn't discuss.
Om Hari noticed Salwa, indeed she was not like her children who were very active and had to do a lot of activities so that her energy was channeled. Salwa is more moody and quiet, instead tends to calmly face the problems of her parents. Remembering a month ago when Dimas mas, Salwa's father visited his house.
...*******...
"pity Salwa, what really can not be maintained, if the problem is because you have a relationship with other women please return to the family mas, pity Salwa"
"it's not just Har"
"then what? I am not sincere that Asti and Salwa were abandoned because of other women" said Hari
"Asti play money Har"
"how do you mean?"
"Asti bgga open I'm hard to pry, maybe because my mistake is also close to other women, just as close to saturated Har. Asti many years busy with his work, mas every weekend home because he remembered Salwa. yesterday there was a telephone bank to charge credit card installments, I was confused because it never made Har. Rarely do you make a credit card, anyways for what. Then I went to the bank, it turned out that Asti, she faked my autograph Har" Dimas explained while bringing evidence from the bank
"can you?" ask Hari "make sure?" Dimas nodded firmly while showing the documents he took from the bank.
"he said for daily needs, out of curiosity mas come to the provincial provincial TU, it turns out SK his salary has been pawned to the bank. without the knowledge of Mas" Dimas again submitted documents from TU and the relevant bank.
"deservedly Har, he has no money for credit card installments, because his salary is also not there"
"sorry, if I'm rude. Didn't you ever give a monthly love to Asti?"
"yes love Har, it's money for the installment of the house, Mas accommodation in Jakarta, the rest is in love with Asti"
"can you maintain it?"
"ga can Har, no longer know what to fight for" Dimas said in frustration
"how's Salwa?"
"As for help, this is Salwa's education savings, Mas entrusted his name on behalf of Salwa so it can be taken by Salwa himself. Please take care of Salwa pity in Bandung with her mother no friends" Day was surprised
"why was Salwa not taken the same Mas? do you want to marry that woman again?"
Dimas shook his head "Mas wants to go home, mas has applied for resign, and has applied also to the company in Semarang. Take Salwa there while I'm thinking. But the situation is not that easy for Salwa, mas fight again from scratch Har" Dimas pleaded
"if I mind?!"
"I'll take it to the law because of the TTD forgery, and I'll sue for the right of home"
"hhhhh,,," Day took a deep breath "i will think first mas, I need to ask Hana's opinion"
A few minutes apart Dimas pamit, hp Hari rang, apparently from mbak Yum mother guard.
"what is the mba's assalamualaikum?"
"mom's day to talk" then the phone is connected to mom
"Har, Asti Har" replied the agitated mother
"what's wrong, ma'am?"
"he borrowed money from my mother, she said of the office"
"how much Ma?"
"25million" Day is shocked, it's the amount of credit card repayment that will be paid off Dimas
"how's Har? what did mom love?"
"don't Ma'am, it was Dimas from here, he said it would be settled Dimas"
"Alhamdulillah"
"let's have a good day Asti ya ma'am, healthy mom?"
"Alhamdulillah ye old all the ordinary feelings of Har"
"Mom later Same day Hana to mommy huh"
"yes play here mom misses the grandkids"
