That afternoon Mili got a call from her papa if she wanted to meet him. At first the long-haired girl straight under the shoulder was very reluctant to meet her papa after her arrival home. But there was something that his father had to know about him and Fatur all this time, exactly as long as his father left him. A feeling with deep wounds that had never been revealed to his father, question after question that Mili gathered during his time away, and the reason his papa came back again after the three of them were happy in his absence. Although his father had already made a wound in Mili's heart, but his eldest daughter could not lie if she often missed the figure of his father.
"How are you?" asked her father when the two of them decided to meet at the restaurant.
It seems that after failing to meet with Fatur, Rudi finally tried to approach Mili because Rudi knew that Mili was very close to him. And who knows from Mili also Rudi can get information about who the woman who was with Fatur earlier.
"Well, Pa," replied Mili rather nervously and stiffly who was sitting opposite her papa.
The two of them sat facing each other and Mili looked very nervous when she met her father back after approximately 6 years. 6 years is not a short time for Mili, as long as it is possible he can get more affection from his father. Mili's heart is mixed not because of, his feelings are deepened if he remembers those times. The time when his father just left him without news. And now Mili has to meet again with the person who has made himself heartbroken and severely injured.
"How's college?" asked her father again continued to look at Mili who had lowered her head hiding the sadness from her papa.
"Thank God, Pa. It's fine."
"Have you heard that you always get the best grades above average?" his father tried to dilute the atmosphere by looking for various topics of conversation.
Yes, now was the time for Rudi to ask about his eldest daughter. How he had been living without the figure of a papa. No need to ask Rudi, Mili and Fatur's life is not okay as long as it is left by him.
"Yes, Pa. Thank goodness." Mili only answered her papa questions so very briefly with a flat face that seemed cold.
"What about Fatur? Is he still like he used to be?"
"Still, Pa. Fature is still as it used to be." Suddenly Mili's voice was a little raucous when he began to tell his past that he really wanted to forget.
"Papa apologizes to you." his father tried to finish his words but Mili first cut the conversation.
"What exactly is Papa coming back into our lives for? Papa's presence to me and Fatur only makes wounds that we should want to forget for life" added Mili who now began to look at his face.
Mili's eyes look very teary and reddened, white circles fill her eyeballs and accumulate in her eye fertilizers. It was clearly seen by Rudi if his daughter was holding back tears that were about to go down her cheeks.
Mili's words made Rudi very sad and hurt, why his daughter's speech was so piercing into his heart and made Rudi a little trouble breathing. Rudi felt guilty for what he had done, leaving Mili and Fatur in a situation that still desperately needed affection and expense.
"Every day Fatur and I look forward to your arrival. Every day we miss you so much that I come suddenly to see us, every day I pray that Papa will come back and always wait for you to come home and be with us again. But you never came back, again." Mili's expression of feelings made her papa's eyeballs teary.
The pain that Mili felt during this time could be felt by Rudi through the recognition of her daughter's feelings. Perhaps this was one of the reasons Fatur did not want to forgive him and hated him so much. The fatal mistake that had been made by Rudi could never be forgiven by Fatur.
"Do you know, we miss you so much. Me and Fatur need you. Fatur was so frustrated that he had to bone down in your place for college expenses that had not been fulfilled, until he was often in accidents that made injuries to his head. And finally because of that he has vertigo disease," said Mili told the story of Fatur while continuing to decompose tears that began to fall on his cheeks.
Evil, that is what is attached to Rudi all this time because as long as he left his two children he never sent a penny for Fatur and Mili. Mili's cry managed to make Rudi join in crying hearing the story of his two children.
"Fature becomes an introverted person. He became a grumpy, loner, introverted, cold, serious, temperamentous and resolute person all because of Papa!"
Is that how Fatur is? If indeed it is for what he came back into the lives of his two children if their feelings and mental health were broken apart. Currently Rudi is a suspect for the problems and grief that Fatur and Mili have gone through. How can Rudi fix everything? Where would he start if it was too late for him.
"Don't Papa ever miss me and Fatur? Did you never think about me and Fatur? How have I and Fatur been feeling all this time? Did Papa ever think how ruined we were when you left? Because of your selfishness back then you sacrificed me and Fatur!" mili said with a slightly uplifting tone and firmly vent his emotions that had been stored in the deepest recesses of his heart.
"Papa knows, Fatur and I are devastated. My heart and Fatur are broken. Fatur and I have to hold back our neighbors and friends because of you." Mili continued to talk incessantly as if this was her last chance to talk to her papa.
That incident will never forget Mili for the rest of his life, for Mili since his father left him when his world was destroyed instantly. Losing her first love, losing someone who was supposed to take care of her mom and herself, someone who was supposed to be the back of her heart. Only the hurt and the pain will never go away.
"Did Papa ever think about how I and Fatur felt when Papa left us?"
Her father could only be silent in silence listening to all the emotional outbursts and heart contents of Mili to him all this time. Not a word came out of his mouth.
"And now Papa wants to meet us to ask how are we doing? I'll answer, Pa. If me and Fatur have not been okay, because our hearts have been hurt because of you" added Mili again completed a speech that has been stuck all this time.
Deg, like a sharp-edged dagger Rudi heard the words of his eldest daughter. Her heart was crying as if it was hurt, her breathing felt heavy and tight as Mili continued to express her pent-up feelings all along.
"What has Papa been looking for all this time? Happiness, right? Hasn't Papa and Mama been looking forward to the birth of me and Fatur when you get married? Isn't Papa happy when Fatur and I grew up and were successful? What else has Papa been looking for all this time? What kind of happiness is Papa looking for? Didn't Fatur and I bring enough happiness to you, Pa? Until you leave us?"
Mili's anger and emotional outbursts make her papa more hurt, what happiness is her father really looking for all this time?
