#Past Reality 2


The swiftness of the rain and the light that split the sky accompanied the hearts of the three people. The night grew colder, but the hearts of the three people grew hotter.


In this life, Binar never felt his heart this fat, as sick as this, years of expecting husband love, when he wanted to give up. Abra comes to her, as if to be eager to reach for her husband's love, but the journey is still far away. Abra's arrival had no impact, her husband still said coldly and almost never answered all her questions and words.


Binar turned to the figure of a young child who was sleeping soundly with his arms outstretched, the exact same face as her husband. The face that always loved.


"What do you want your mom to be like, baby? should we hold on? but it looks like we don't have space."


Binar rubbed both sides of her cheeks which were always wet due to the swiftness of her tears.


He had thought carefully, if he survived and Adam did not love Abra, then his son would be sick.


"I'm sorry you had to finally separate you from your father."


"Trust me, you did all this for Abra." Binar stroked Abra's soft hand with her index finger. Very soft and soft hands.


***


As for Adam, the man hit the wall, his tears and sweat on his forehead splattered, his hair was disheveled, his shirt was crumpled. This reality was like a slap to him, how could his parents do this to him.


Though Ayu was very kind, she was a simple and cheap girl smiling.


She could not imagine what would happen to her if everything was right, her parents were involved in her relationship and Andra was her son.


***


As for Ayu, she was crying a hiccup in the cramped room, sitting while hugging a pillow and recalling all her memories with Adam. He ventured because he wanted to be happy, what else Andra needed Adam. He felt sorry for Andra when the other children told him about the bastard child. He can't just shut up.


After all, he believed the power of their love could melt the hearts of Adam's parents, what else now there is Andra.


"I love you so much, Adam."


Ayu turned her head, staring at a photo beside her. A memory he never forgot.


The three people were drifting in each other's minds and now time has changed. The sunlight began to rise, a knock on the door made the daydream of Binar conscious.


"Mrs," said an Art. "Is the breakfast ready?"


Binar frowned, then turned towards the wall. Time pointed at 07:30, it was already morning, as it was drifting in his mind. He did not realize that the night had been replaced by the morning.


"Yes, I'll be down."


"Madam," another Art came, and he was in a hurry. "In the living room there are Madam and Mister."


"Did Adam contact them?"


"Yuni, you take care of Abra. I'll meet them" said Binar. He must be strong, he must be weak. His heart still hurts, but for the sake of his son he will do anything, including bracing himself which he is currently at a low point.


Binar stepped quickly, he reached the living room and greeted his two in-laws politely. For a moment he looked at the lowered Adam, his hands clenching as if holding back anger.


"Because Binar has come, I want to ask Mama and Papa something?" Adam raised his face, forcing his so sick heart to look at the person who hurt him. "Is my breakup with Ayu related to Mama and Papa?" ask Adam.


Papa Ardey and Mama Mahira exchanged a glance. They both fell silent thinking of something.


"Let's come here and bring a child, he looks like me."


Mama Mahira and Papa Ardey were surprised, they did not expect that Ayu would come. However, they do not believe in the existence of children. They still remember those bitter memories. Memories that made them lose their first son.


"I'm going to do a DNA test" Adam said.


Papa Ardey grabbed his wife's hand, he strengthened his fragile wife. For years he's been hiding it all this time.


"We were involved, we hated Ayu" Mama Mahira said, with tears flowing.


Deg


Adam clenched his hands. He held the anger in his chest, it turned out that the person he loved crushed him. "Why did Mom do this?"


"You wanna know? you want to bring up that wound?" ask Mama Mahira.


"Adam stop it" said worried Papa Ardey. His wife had experienced depression due to the bitter incident. He did not want to make his wife sad again, an event that had been buried for a long time.


"No Pa, I need an explanation." Adam did not want to lose, all this time he blamed Ayu, the woman he loved. "And you forced me to marry Binar, who I obviously didn't love."


Binar squeezed the dress, his heart as if it stopped beating. His heart was burned alive. Just get here, there will be no more crying and more.


"Adam!"


Papa Ardey shouted, his son was so outrageous that he yelled at his own mother.


"Enough, I'll say." Prevent Mama Mahira while holding tightly the arms of her husband who seemed to want to beat Adam.


"You have a sister,"


"Sister?" ask Adam. All this time no one brought up an older brother, so he felt as an only child and only child.


"Yes, you have a brother, but he's dead and you know he's ready to kill him, Ayu's father, he kidnapped your brother and that fateful incident."


Mama Mahira closed her eyes, she could not continue her words anymore. He was not strong considering the incident of his son being hit in front of him.


"It was the accident that made us lose your brother, had it not been for your lover's father, we would not have lost our first child."


Binar could not say anything, he also felt depressed in addition to this reality. He felt sorry for his two parents-in-law. It turns out that their lives are as bitter as this, trying to keep smiling even though in the past the bitter taste will remain.


"Ma, Pa, Mas Adam, Binar also wants to say something." Although it was not the right time, but he did not want to postpone it anymore.


The three people turned to look at the smiling Binar.


"I want a divorce from Adam."


"What?!"


Mama Mahira was so shocked, she instantly fainted on the sofa and made everyone panic.
