A Place to Return
Where to Return *38
Mr. Sanjaya's behavior like this became the center of attention of people passing by. But Mr. Sanjaya and Mr. Wijaya did not care at all. They thought that person did not exist at all.
Anggi and Mama who heard the whispers of people looking at Mr. Sanjaya who was seen in a state of concern. Anggie and Mama looked at each other. The soul of a child and ex-wife is called to do something.
"Mama, do we need to go there?" asked Anggie when he saw Mama who was still staring with great focus towards Mr. Sanjaya and also Mr. Wijaya.
Mama didn't hear what Anggie said. His feet are taking him somewhere. Mama walked straight regardless of the call from Anggie.
"Mama. Wait for Anggie Ma" Call Anggie in a slightly higher tone.
Mama still didn't hear what Anggie said. She still walked to a place in her mind right now.
She stopped right in front of someone who had hurt her heart. Someone who has put a deep wound in your heart. Wounds that no one can treat. The wound that was healed but was quite real.
"Sorry Mr. Sanjaya, you should go straight home and rest at home" said Mama when she was standing right in front of someone she loved so much first.
Mr. Sanjaya is shocked to hear his ex-wife talking to him. Ex-wives who have been hurt, with a betrayal that makes their households become smashed like now.
"I'm sorry" said Mr. Sanjaya who is now in a standing position.
Mr. Sanjaya stood up as his ex-wife spoke to him. He looked at the face of the woman he loved so much.
"Save that apology, sir. I don't need it" Mama said again.
Anggie was already next to Mama as well as Vina. They both keep Mama on the left and right.
Mr. Sanjaya stared at his beloved daughter. The princess who made her proud. Pride is wrapped in deep sorrow for what he has done.
"Anggie forgive Daddy, son" Mr. Sanjaya told Anggie
Anggie did not respond to Mr. Sanjaya's apology at all. He just stared at Mr. Sanjaya.
"Sir once again I say. Master better go home and rest no need to sit here long. We don't need you to see me again" Mama said.
"One more Sir. Our relationship is over. So, please don't assume you still know us. Our caste is very different. Very different." continued Mama said what felt by her now.
"One more. Please tell your wife and daughter, never bother my daughter again. That's enough suffering you've made for both of us. We just want to live quietly together. Please don't bother us" Mama continued in a pleading tone to Mr. Sanjaya.
Mr. Wijaya was interested in what Mama said. He remembered a video he had obtained.
"Sorry Madam, does what you said earlier have anything to do with the video I got?" asked Mr. Wijaya who was curious about what Mama said to Mr. Sanjaya.
Mr. Wijaya showed the video obtained by him through his confidant who always followed the activities of Anggie so far.
Mom saw the video. And so did Anggie. Anggie immediately closed his mouth not believing that when the incident multiplied it there was someone who recorded it.
"Yes, one of these. My son and I have never disturbed your wife and children. Instead of our lives, we leave it completely in the hands of both of them. What for them is still not enough to be a Sanjaya family, so it must interfere with the lives of both of us" continued Mama again.
Mom is really emotional right now. He said everything in his mind at the moment. Mom is really sick of everything. Mama is fed up with the attitude of Madam and Miss Sanjaya who always annoy Anggie when they accidentally meet.
"Sorry sir, where did you get that video?" ask Anggie who is starting to worry that his life is being watched by others all this time
"I got it from the guy who sent Anggie. Everyone has got this video. Even Vano has also got it" replied Mr. Wijaya telling the reality about the video problem.
"Huf why can someone record" said Anggie who was a little panicked.
"Vin, how am I not going to panic. If the video reaches the campus, then automatically I will be dismissed to be a lecturer here Vin" said Anggie whose mind has gone where in responding to the video spread.
"That won't happen Anggie" replied Mr. Sanjaya with great certainty
Anggie looked towards Mr. Sanjaya
"I don't want to have your debt" Anggie replied again.
Anggie does not want him and Mama increasingly stepped on by the rich if they all know Anggie in the help of Mr. Wijaya to survive teaching at the University after the video case spread.
"Anggie is not a debt of gratitude. The part in the video is clearly visible to you that they are kasari. You're not the one who's looking after them. So, it's not worth the campus punishing you" Mr. Wijaya explained to Anggie.
"Right be, sir. But, if for people who are moneyed and have power, nothing is impossible. Everything will be possible" Anggie replied as he looked towards Mr. Sanjaya.
Anggie then looked towards Mr. Sanjaya. He looked at his real father.
"One thing Sir. If I get out of this college, then I'll make sure to you Sir, with my own hands, I'll make your daughter and your wife suffer" Anggie threatened Mr. Sanjaya.
"Humans have limits on patience, and so do I. They play with fire with me, then ready they burn. For me nothing is impossible. Everything is possible." continued Anggie again.
"Please keep that in your smart brain, sir"
"Let's go home. It's enough that we're here" Anggie said, asking Mama to leave the place. Anggie's chest is so tight now, he wants to breathe free air out there.
Mr. Sanjaya and Mr. Wijaya saw the departure of Anggi, Mama and also Vina. They stared at the three people.
"They really hate me. Not a single word was put out by Anggie and his good mother. Everything contains hatred" said Mr. Sanjaya
"But I accept all that" continued Mr. Sanjaya again received all the words said by Mama and Anggie.
...****************...
"Vina, stop by yuk first. Mama's been cooking a special menu for you two. The menu that you never cooked before" said Mama invites Vina to come into the house.
"Sip Ma's. Vina parked the car first" replied Vina who then parked her car in the usual place she parked when she went to Anggie's house.
Mama, Anggie and Vina then enter the house.
"Mama cook tumpeng?" asked Anggie who was shocked when he saw a cone was already on the living room table. A full-fledged beef pot with chicken soy sauce, tofu stew and tempeh, orek tempeh, egg balado and anointing.
"Yes dear. So the mama was a little late because she had to finish cooking the tumpeng first. I'm sorry Mama" Mama replied with a happy smile. Mama's made Anggie happy.
"thank you Ma. Anggie loves mom" said Anggie hugging mom.
"Mama loves you too, son. You are Mama's only treasure" continued Mama while hugging Anggie very tightly.
Vina who saw all of that smiled happily. Tears of happiness dripped down her thin cheeks. Vina was very happy when she saw that her friend and mother were equally happy.
"His embrace. Let's eat. I am hungry" said Vina again who could not bear to see the rice tumpeng that is not big.
Mama then brought rice tumpeng for her two daughters. After that the three of them enjoyed the rice tumpeng made by Mama. The three of them dissolved into a heated chat around how they could finish college in such a very fast time. She listened to all the stories of her two daughters. Mama is very happy with the achievements of her two daughters
