Antika immediately picked up an empty plate in front of her father.
"It's over, Dad! Let me put it in the sink. Here's the tea, Dad!"
After putting a cup of tea in front of his father Antika went to the kitchen to put the dishes of his father's former dinner without washing it first. Because, he was worried that his father would leave soon, while he wanted to have an important talk with his father.
Antika went back to the dining table and sat down there. "Well, I want to talk to Dad!" abugn.
"You just talk, what a hard thing!" father said with a reply.
"Em, Well .., I think it's time I found out about mom. I'm not a kid anymore, Dad. Please tell me the true story of why my mother abandoned me as a child!" antika.
"Ck, did he see you?" ask Dad in a high voice.
"I met Mom a few days ago near the college. Please be honest with you, Antika, Dad. Please tell Antika the truth, Dad!" pinta Antika's.
"Why do you want to hear from Dad again if you've heard from that woman, huh! Do you want to judge what is right and what is wrong?"
"Dad, that's not it! Antika just want to know from both sides, maybe there is a misunderstanding. Antika does not want to side with any of you, Antika just wants to know what happened first and why Antika can not get the love of a mother since childhood. Not the same as the other kids!"
"Aren't you two divorced, you're still my parents? you have a duty and a duty to care for and protect me. So why since childhood mother never came even just to see my situation? I need to know the reason why I was abandoned by my mother. At least I know about my family background!" antika said with a high tone and her crying broke.
"Well, I'll tell you this poor story of your family. I married your mother because we love each other, but with time I only earn mediocre, it is difficult to meet your mother's growing needs. All because your mother was driven by her greedy mother, your grandmother."
"It caused our household to heat up because of frequent fights. Until finally your grandmother told your mother to leave father and remarry another richer man in order to comply with the wishes of your greedy grandmother. And strangely your mother finally obeyed her greedy mother. Your mother wants to go home to her parents. Then I granted his wish. I allowed him on condition that he could go alone, without taking you. And, your mother would rather leave you for the sake and follow the persuasion of her mother. Now after all this time he suddenly came and just said he wanted to meet you! Is it that easy to come and go as you please?"
"But it's not that easy for Dad to forgive him. What kind of mother who abandoned her child for years, then suddenly she came and acted as if nothing happened between us just like that!"
"Now you know, satisfied you? You feel like you're an adult aren't you, it's up to you now if you want to leave Dad too! don't expect to ask to see dad again if you dare to step your foot out of this house! And don't ever appear before me again!" antika's father said with overflowing emotions. Then he stood up and went into his room, slamming the door.
