The POV Aldy
I want to stand up and stop his departure. However, I don't think this is the right time. Let him be alone for now or he'll be even more angry with me.
If only, she knew about my heart that was so hurt when she saw him who still liked Riki.
The man who hurt her and also made me have to get hurt because of a fight with that man.
Mood to eat ice cream was lost, but my intention was to invite him to look for food ingredients and cooking utensils.
But it looks like it will never happen again. Kuremas is strong in my hair, 'Stupid you Aldy! Stupid fool!' my mind cursed itself.
Getting up from the chair and going towards the cake seller, I wanted to apologize for my pretentious audacity in meddling.
'Ca, I want you to be away from Riki. Let you not feel pain anymore.'
'I don't care if I'm here, huh? Don't want it you're the same me?'
A variety of questions struck my mind, all the way to the cake seller. I'll find one if Caca likes it.
After paying, I decided to go back to the apartment while the cake will be given later tonight after Caca was quite calm.
'Emang, I don't deserve to fall in love anymore, do I?'
'Is this bad for me to like someone who still hopes for someone else?'
'Haha, you bego Aldy! Go and find another woman! You'll never be with Caca.'
Arriving at the apartment, I put the cake into a mini refrigerator available in the apartment. Open the balcony and sit there.
Annisa, yes, only a mother can understand her child. I took a cell phone and searched for the number of the woman who loved me.
"Assalamualaikum Son?" hail the wingless angel from there. Unknowingly, my tears just dripped.
"Son?" call him because he didn't get an answer from me.
"Waalaikumsalam Umi," I replied in a rather hoarse voice.
"You why? How crying, not good place there? You don't have a temen or are you tricked? Astagfirullah, if you're really tricked. Let Umi send money for your fare home, dear."
'Ca .. am I wrong to wish you could one day be as worried as Umi on me? When my tears come down you swiftly remove them? When the smile does not exist, you spirit makes it come out with a funny behavior from you?' my mind and pensive.
"Aldy?" call Annisa and bring me back to my senses.
"Yes Umi?"
"Why are you, son? Same story as Umi."
"Umi .. wrong if Aldy hopes someday there will be someone like Umi? Very worried about Aldy, very possessive with Aldy and others?"
"Haha." The sound of laughter coming from the air made me frown. What's wrong? In fact, my question has no element of comedy at all.
"Umi why laugh?"
"If there is something like Umi, it means that gives birth to you two dong."
"Huh? What do you mean Umi?" ask me who doesn't understand.
"Gini Aldy's. A mother becomes very worried or possessive with her child, because she who conceives, gives birth and raises the child."
"There will be no one whose affection exceeds that of a mother, even if you say a lover has the same affection then you are wrong. He will never be the same and if you tell me if there is a woman who can be the same as Umi, yes, it will not exist" Annisa explained at length.
I fell silent and digested the soft words of the woman down there, right! That's very true, there will never be another woman like Annisa.
"Why you?" ask Annisa again.
"Aldy just wishes that women like Umi existed other than Umi."
"Honey, women who exceed Umi a lot out there. But, like Umi, yeah, just Umi."
"Umi ... wrong is not if we love someone who does not love us?"
"Love or wish for more?"
"What's the difference between Umi?"
"Yes, ada. If you love her you will be happy when she is happy with anyone even if not with you and you will not feel hurt or say that the woman hurt you. If you wish more, yes, that's your name is selfish and certainly wrong. Love can't just grow, there will be something present that makes us like someone."
"So, better Aldy pendam this love or Aldy reveal Umi?"
"depends."
"Memi from earlier was very much hanging," I grumbled to hear Annisa's answer.
"Yes, yes dong! If he's married, you better be quiet and if you're still single you can express."
"Enter this! Umi thinks Aldy's gonna love people's wives, what?"
"Yes, how do you know. Love can grow from anywhere."
"That's not Umi's love."
"But?"
"Lust is."
"How do you control that lust?" asked Annisa who had deliberately lured her son.
"First: Quwwatul Iman, faith in Allah is the main fortress in order to be controlled by lust. Increase our faith in God. Second: Fasting. Third: Stay away from small sins. Fourth: Keep your eyes on."
"Maa Shaa Allah the son of Umi. So, for the matter of whether it is better to hold or reveal it depends on you. If, you dare to express then you must be able to accept the fact that he does not love you or it turns out that he loves you. And, when you express and get rejected instead, it is feared that the distance between you will be very, very far."
"However, if you harbor feelings. You can still keep an eye on him, befriend him and can receive a chest room if one day it turns out the invitation letter you got from him."
"Have you ever been in this position?"
"Have ever. Until finally Umi sense of loving creatures that have not been lawful for us will only cause pain, so since then Umi stopped loving the creature of God except the family and only God alone. Remember, when God is already in our hearts then there will be no foreign woman's name imprinted on your hearts then the heart will still feel full."
"Because .. is filled by Allah alone. The Lord who should be in the heart of every creation" Annisa told her son.
'Yes, it seems like I am a person who has begun to fall for love and feelings. Making my soul uncontrollable cannot even focus on worshiping Him.'
"Nobody wants to talk about it anymore, right? Umi want to pray Magrib. It's been the reason here," said Annisa made Aldy aware of his daydream.
"Yes, it's Umi. Thank you for listening and answering and advising Aldy."
"It is the duty of parents to listen, to explain also the support of their children."
