Woman Without Womb
Chapter 87 - About the Hermawan

“Blessed?” the father said while putting glasses perched on his nose. He crossed his arms in the chest. “Because I can't bring you to life. Only money can make you survive in this evil world. And you prefer happy or money?”

Hermawan bit his lower lip.

“Blessed!” he replied firmly, returning the father's gaze. “Happy is much better, than having a lot of money but we are not free to live. I can't do what I want, the father who will forbid me from being friends with anyone. I have to take care of the image and fortunately, in the city where I live. No one knows me at all. I can be free to live and now you want to take away my happiness? You guys ... aren't tired?”

“But in fact the happiness you want, can not make people behave well with you right? They will lower you and quite us who fret how in lowin same family and can only be proud when we have money.”

His parents had an easy life, of course Hermawan knows that. From infancy to the age of five she felt the weight of life.

The boyhood hermitage had a hard time until he never ate at all. He felt hungry and he also remembered how his own parents' family oppressed him and this made his parents busy working hard and it turned out that his business was lucky to succeed.

But baby, baby,

The success achieved by his parents changed his parents' attitude. From the same good everyone, to turn into a stingy even oppressing the weak.

They think money is everything, and they don't care about the things that bother them. They keep looking for money, until Hermawan grows up without affection and much pressure on them.

“You just close your eyes, people will oppress us if we are weak. Not because I don't have money.”

“And people who don't have money are always weak!” added his father while snapping.

Hermawan kicked the table and stood up.

“I don't care. I grew up for a dozen years because of your coercion and now I don't want to anymore. I want to be free and I don't care about all our plans. What else are you guys who don't directly sell me. And so ... You think I don't know? You direct this matchmaking so that the company of the Lisa family can unite with our family company and make the company father bigger.”

“Nak,” call the bunch while shaking. “We just want to create a good future for you and your child later. So just follow what your father wants and it is not at all burdensome for you. You stay married and try to get to know Lisa well, you fit in well with each other. She is also a good woman.”

“She is not a good woman,” said Hermawan then laughed. “She's just a woman who tries to be kind to be accepted in our family and end up mastering everything. He just loves money not anything else.”

“You just don't know him yet,” replied the mother. “If you know him, surely you also think that he is good.”

“And dad also won't let you go again. Dad won't be just like yesterday. Leave the woman or the father will do something to her. So please choose.”

“Yah?” shock Hermawan.

“Dan .. You want freedom, right? You don't want to be forced this is the same dad again? You want what you want without Dad telling you again? Relax ... Dad will do it all. So, the choice is in your hands. First ... You want to live the way you want but marry Lisa, the woman of your choice. Or second, you are with that woman. But my father and mother will not be silent. We'll recokin your life and maybe .. we'll hurt that woman too. Now, all the answers are in your hands.”

“I HATE YOU GUYS!”

Hermawan kicked the dining table, making all the items scattered and the sound of shards of bells filled the house.

Hermawan did not care, he immediately went up to his room and slammed the door of the room.

“Warm ... I really hate this family. They don't even think about my feelings at all. They just do what they want. I hate them.”

Hermawan remembered the words of his father earlier. Immediately he opened the laptop and made a letter of resignation from the company and without a second thought the man immediately submitted a letter of resignation.

Not to forget, Hermawan also asked one of his workers to sell a restaurant that he had built from scratch.

“Ngak .. I won't want to because of them anymore. I have to find a job, without my father helping me. I'm sure, there's one place that can take me well without having to get a bribe from dad again.”

The man also hid some assets that only he knew.

“But .. what should I do. I am confused by their selfishness. I'm leaving but what about Maudy?”

Hermawan clearly knows how reckless his parents are. He was sure that their words were not merely bluffing. But they're really going to put Maudy in a dangerous place.

“Maudy ... is it this hard to get you? After I was ruined because of your marriage and now there's a chance, but still no chance for me?”

“Why always do this ..”

***

“Hermawan ... where exactly are you!”

Maudy frantically kept calling Hermawan. But again and again the phone number is not active.

This morning, he got word from his office group message saying Hermawan came out of the company all of a sudden for no reason at all. It made all the work that was put into Maudy.

But that's not the point, Maudy was really panicked as the sudden Hermawan out. Because Hermawan had nothing to say about the matter, even at the last moment they called each other.

And now Hermawan's number really can't be contacted. It was as if Hermawan wanted to get away from all of this and did deliberately make this all work.

He seemed to disappear in the swallow of the earth.

“Good, geez. Where are you and why not tell me at all?” maudy then cried.

He dropped his body on the bed and the woman cried on her stomach. He hit the pillow and just kept calling Hermawan's name.

Maudy sniffles.

“In fact, I haven't reciprocated your feelings.”

To be honest, though,

All this time Maudy clearly knew that Hermawan had the same feelings he had. He also often saw how Hermawan who admired him. Unfortunately ... Maudy tried not to care and put those feelings aside.

He tried not to reciprocate the feelings of Hermawan because he felt that their relationship would be destroyed if mixed with feelings. When Maudy did not want to lose Hermawan.

Until, Maudy only realized that she also had the same feeling when Cintya said she liked Hermawan. In the corner of his heart, there was a feeling of not being willing to imagine Hermawan with other women.

“Padahan .. I have promised myself, to receive and return the feelings of Hermawan when he came back here. But ... Why is it like this?”

His heart was broken, it felt like all this was too sudden and Maudy was not at all a shadow of this happening. She never even imagined the pain of a man, because Maudy clearly knew how deep Hermawan felt. So it seems unlikely that Hermawan will hurt him.

“TAPI ... Why is it like this?” he murmured still with a trembling voice. “The benefactor did not hurt me directly, but he left. Going from my side when I was getting used to everything he did to me.”

“Why is this?” yell again.

***

“Daddy listen, you're out of that company?” asked the father while crossing his legs in the living room and his eyes were still focused the same tablet in the old man's hand. “Pasti ... You chose to stay by our side, right? Why do you work under the pressure of others. At the time father kanu himself had the company.”

Hermawan tried to pay attention to his hearing and chose to eat without looking at his father.

“You know, maybe you consider this father and mother to be selfish because you never permit to do what you want. But do you know, if this is the right way to educate children. So that you know the direction and do not go anywhere. After all, in the end, it is only you who continue the effort of father and with all the lessons that father loves to you. I'm sure you can further develop the company father.”

Hermawan is still silent.

“Dan also .. I do not want you to be with your child growing up with abuse and abuse from many people. Let father and mother who used to feel it.”

Hermawan clenched his hands under the table. He looked at his father's hatred.

In fact, Hermawan never get a warm figure from his parents. He did not feel his parents had taken good care of him until it gave many benefits and good lessons.

They failed to be good parents, that's what Hermawan considered all along.

The mother stepped from the front door while wearing her expensive clothes. She sat down beside her husband and turned to Hermawan who was still eating in silence.

“OH IYA, Mommy just had an arisan that can only be visited by many people and they are all on admiring you when your mother shows your photo. But they also immediately miesel right know that you already have a candidate.”

“...”

“Makanya, mother ask you to show yourself to the public more often with Lisa. Let everyone know you have a beautiful and versatile candidate. Mommy can't wait, until the date you get Lisa. Let mother can tell everyone that mother has a great daughter-in-law.”

“...”

“Lisa sounds a lot better than that woman right?” ask her mother again who managed to make Hermawan turn to them. “Lisa can get pregnant, and she is not a widow. Mommy can not imagine, how do other people's views if they know that a woman who is a child of a famous CEO even choose a woman is not perfect.”

“In fact Maudy is not as bad as you think,” reply Hermawan in the end. “She can't have children and a widow, but that's not what she wants. Destiny makes Maudy grow up to be a woman without a womb and if you mock her. Is it the same as insulting God and the widow? If her husband had not cheated on her, she would not have been a widow. So blame someone else. It's not Maudy who doesn't know anything about this.”

“See ... she's on the side right?” the mother then laughed. “Means she is not a good wife, she cannot satisfy her husband. Hence her husband chose to cheat, rather than survive Maudy. She must not be a good wife to you. So, what do you choose him for.”

“Bunda can say that, because mother never cheated. But, I'm sure it's fitting mama ngerasain. Mommy will definitely understand how to feel in the side of it and in the end prefer to divorce rather than survive.”

“You pray your father covers mother.”

Hermawan stopped the shoulder. “We no one knows.”

Hermawan smiled cunningly, when he saw the face of his father who was increasingly pale. He could only snort because he knew something. “Mother should understand, if life does not continue to run according to our progress.”

Hermawan's father swallowed the salivary.

“Dan .. If you think I know nothing, you are wrong. Because I know exactly what you're hiding and it's just a time bomb that will explode and destroy everything.”

Hermawan put dirty dishes in the sink and approached them.

“And another one, if you think I'm here it's because it wants to accept you guys it's wrong. Until anytime, I will not follow again what you want and I just wait for the right time.”

“...”

“Then you touched Maudy without my knowledge. I'm sure your secret will be exposed and it's enough to destroy your reputation and you will get the same insults as you felt before.”

His parents looked at each other, confused. Both faces are very pale and do not know what to react because Hermawan really looks serious and does not joke at all.

“I'd be a lot worse off if you guys could be mean to me. All this time I have been granted, but now I have been able to choose my happiness and of course my happiness is not in your wishes. So ... please stop hoping that I will follow what you want!”
