Thalia approached Farel who was staring at her.
"Thailand ... I ... I don't know where else to go ..." said Farel.
But Thalia's attention turned to the baby held by Farel.
"France ... But whose baby is this?" thalia asked who immediately looked at Farel's desperate face. The guy's glasses are dewy.
"This is the story ...."
...****************...
Farel came home after a hard day. However, being able to see Thalia's smile, it felt like Farel's heavy day was a bit light. He looked at the door, behind the door there was certainly no one because when the mother arrived in Jakarta, the mother immediately stayed at her sister's house to calm down. Farel took a deep breath.
"Assalamualai—"
"Farel?"
"—kum ...." Farel's eyes widened to see the figure of the Mama who was cleaning up in the living room.
"Mama? Is your mom home?" The bespectacled man immediately approached his mother. He noticed the face of the mother who looked so pale. Farel understood, compared to him, the Mama was much more devastated by the loss of the Papa. Either way, maybe her Mama's love for her late Papa is so deep because it's been through a lot of fun together.
"Mama, if Mama still wants to be with Bude, Mama can stay there first" said Farel while stroking his mother's shoulder. But the four-headed woman stroked Farel's hand.
"No, Son ... Mama is fine. My mom came home because she was worried about you. Sorry, yes. You still have to go to school even though we are in a disaster, "sorry the Mama while staring at her son's grief.
Farel smiled slightly.
"It's okay, Ma .." he said.
"Where is your scholarship?" asked his mother who was immediately greeted by Farel's warm smile.
"So morning, Farel explained to the principal and homeroom teacher Farel. Fortunately, they understand, Ma. So, Farel could continue the scholarship, but Farel should not skip it like yesterday" explained Farel.
The mother just nodded while smiling. Ah, the Mama's smile is the thing Farel misses the most. Understandably, as long as there is in Kalimantan, every day, Farel only witnessed the roar of tears of the Mama.
"Yes, already, then, you take a break, yes, son. You must be tired, too" said the mother.
"Mama also rest, this living room, let Farel settle down, that's Farel break, huh, Ma?" he said that only got a thin smile of the Mother and then the four-headed woman went to her room.
Meanwhile, Farel cleaned the living room. Last night, he did PR here, so it's kind of messy. He did not expect that his mother would come home so soon. However, he actually felt a little relieved now.
Farel wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"Finally reser—" Suddenly the door of his house was knocked. Farel's forehead frowned. Could Thalia have come? But the girl did not warn him.
"Yes, one minute!" sahut Farel walked towards the door. The knock that he heard was hunting him, making Farel not have time to peek out of the window.
"God ... Oek ... Oek ...." Farel's forehead frowned when he heard the sound of a baby coming from behind his door. Is behind this door one of his family members who has a baby? But who? As she remembered, the mother was the youngest child and her late father was an only child. In his family's genealogy, Farel was the youngest member.
However, Farel did not want to think about it any further. He immediately opened the door.
"It finally opened!" exclaimed a woman whose face was slightly wrinkled, but her hair was still predominantly black. Farel's eyes blinked, should he call this woman "Grandmother"? But who is her grandmother?
"Uhm, what's the need, huh, Mom?" Eventually Farel referred to the woman with a million more common mothers.
The wrinkled woman's forehead was wrinkled.
"Where's your mother?" cynical while fondling a baby who continues to cry in his carrier.
"Uhm, Mama ... Mom is being rested. Whose mother, huh? What's the matter with my mom?" farel asked, trying to be polite and not provoked by the old woman's thin attitude.
"I'm here to see your mother! I'm giving up this baby!" press the woman in a slightly loud voice. However, the woman's words did not answer Farel's question at all.
"Infant?" Farel glanced at the crying baby, then his attention returned to the old woman before him.
"Whose baby is that, Mom?" ask Farel.
Farel hurriedly prevented it.
"Take it easy, Mom. You can come in first and please sit down. Let me call my mom first" he said. The woman only snorted in annoyance, while Farel let her in and sat down in the living room. Without any talk, he immediately went into the house and went to his mother's room.
Farel knocked on the door of the mother's room.
"Ma, is Mama asleep? There is a guest, Ma .." said Farel rather loudly, but in a soft tone. First click, no answer. Farel then knocked again.
"Ma ... There's a guest, Ma ... that person found Mama—" Suddenly the door opened. Mama's face looks cute, maybe this mother had time to sleep.
"Who, Farel?" ask the Mama.
Farel shakes.
"Say, he wanted to explain that Mama had met Mama" said Farel.
The mother just sighed.
"Yes, already, you drink first, Mama wants to wash her face," asked Mama who was immediately supported by Farel.
Farel also presented a drink in the form of sweet tea to the guest whose face still looks sour, as if Farel is his great enemy.
"Silakam was drunk, ma'am .." said Farel, but the old woman threw away her face.
"Where's your Mom?" resounding.
"Mama will soon—"
"I'm here, Mother who, huh? And what's the need for me?" suhut Mama while taking a seat on the living room sofa.
Without explaining anything, the old woman immediately got up, then approached Mama Farel and handed the baby in her carry. His mother Farel, would not want to hold the poor baby while looking at the wonder of the old woman's face that continues to frown.
"Here, please take care of him! My family and I are not ready!" said the old woman who made Mama Farel more confused.
"Uhm, Sorry, Mom ... But, whose baby is this? Why did you give it to me?"
"Udah, don't be a hypocrite! We also know that all Ridwan's possessions and assets fall into your hands! My son didn't get any parts!" grunt the old woman.
Ridwan was the name of Farel's father, but why did this old woman discuss his father's property? What is the relationship between the father and his son? Based on the old woman's words, it seems that her son also got a share of the father's legacy.
"What do you mean, huh? What does this have to do with my husband's estate with this child and that of the mother's?" korek the mother who also did not understand.
The old woman snorted in annoyance.
"Don't pretend you don't know! You should also know, right, that your husband is marrying my daughter?"
As the sound of lightning struck, what kind of news did this old woman bring?
"Married to ...." Farel's body was stiff, and so was Mama's, but the four-headed woman tried to remain calm.
"My husband is married to your daughter? I don't understand at all. Mean what? my husband only works in Kalimantan ..." defend the mother to her husband.
But the old woman chuckled then took something out of her bag. He issued a paper with the caption "Proof of Siri's Marriage Certificate". There was written the name of the father who stated that the name of the woman under his bio was the name of his wife. There's even a signature of the father there.
"Siri-wedding?" mama was a little dumbfounded. Her husband never talked about this, not even permission.
"Because Ridwan did not go to take care of his marriage to my daughter in KUA, then my daughter did not get her inheritance rights at all!" grunt the old woman.
"Then this baby .." The mother looked at the baby in her cradle.
"Yes, that baby is Ridwan's daughter!"
Sontak Farel fell to hear the old woman's words. No, it's too random! Did you marry again and have children? This must be a dream!
