"Hallo, Man."
Arka calls Amanda, intending to express her desire to get home from the hospital.
"Yes Ka, why?" answer Amanda across the street.
"Why can't you connect?" ask Arka.
"Again on another phone call. That's what Anita said, Nuri and Siti used to work at the penthouse, which I moved into the house. At a fight with one who works at home."
"Berrantem?. What's the rambling about?" ask Arka.
"Die, senior-junior."
"Oh my goodness, but is it done?"
"Udah, I've got the problem. What's the matter, Ka?. Any problem?. Have you eaten yet?" Amanda asked a few questions.
"Udah. Mm, Man. Can I go home today?" arka said slowly.
"Loh, it still hurts. Why the hell?. Don't feel right, are you?"
"Mmm, yeah. One of them is, besides I feel good too koq. Can you, Man?"
"Hhhh." Amanda sighed, then thought.
"Where are you, Ka?. I'm really worried, scared that you're doing anything else."
"Man, trust me. I'm fine now. Yeah, can ya?"
"Ok, but don't work. Don't accept this shoot offer just yet."
"Ok, no. Can you but?"
"Ok, I take care of everything."
"That's okay, man. I told Rio to."
"Is Rio there?"
"There's."
"Oh, yeah."
"You've been eating and taking vitamins, man?"
"Not yet, just a moment."
"Don't forget."
"Yes." Yeah."
"Yes, I take care of everything first." said Arka.
"Oh, let me know later."
"Yes." Yeah."
Arka's finished her phone.
"May I have the same bini lo?" rio asked later.
Arka nodded, the next second they immediately moved. Conducting administrative processes and so on.
Actually doctors have also said, if Arka can go home and can do outpatient. It's just that Amanda still wants him there.
But today Amanda agreed to Arka's wish, to rest at home. Honestly Amanda was still a little worried, but she also felt sorry for Arka if she had to be in the hospital constantly. The young man must be bored.
When everything was done in the care, Arka and Rio also say goodbye to the doctor and nurse who had treated him. They walked to the front lobby. While crossing a hallway, Arka turned to a room, which happened to be open glass curtains.
He was surprised to see Nino there and vice versa. Nino who in recent days is confident that if Amanda comes just to see the situation, now suddenly her heart is broken. While Arka guesses, whether Amanda knows the state of Nino or not.
Rio escorts Arka to the penthouse first, then they take a car and gas tanker towards the house of Arka's parents.
"Koq lo's still parked here, anyway?" rio asked when they had arrived, and Arka kept parking her car in the usual place.
"Take it to the front of your house, your mother already knows this." he continued.
"Ntar was reacting to a neighbor, Ri. Tau own citizens here like what." said Arka later.
"Yes, yes, it's up to you." said Rio.
Arka parked her car there.
"Come, get out." said Rio who saw Arka speechless in the car. The vehicle engine has been shut down.
"Just relax, just." continued the young man again.
Arka then opened the car door, honestly he was a bit hesitant to do this. Because he had never made his parents angry.
This was the first time he had made such a mess, which caused his mother to become enraged. But as Rio said, there was no other choice but to be honest and say everything as it is.
"Tuh, tuh, tuh, right. What I said."
Madam Rose, the village gossip queen, is peering at the movements of Arka and Rio, who are now slowly moving away from the car. He peeked with the mothers of gossip lovers.
"Yes yes, Miss Rose. Koq can use that little car, money from where if not savings." One of the idol worshippers of Bu Roses, open your voice.
"Yes, so this new actor got a good role. You can buy a car like that. I have checked jeng, on Google tea eta. That car is very expensive, where maybe the honor of the Ark is enough. Her mother's house isn't really the same as her."
"Hmmm, believe the hell we are now" said another.
Arka stepped slowly, now he and Rio have been located exactly a few meters in front of the house. His mother seemed to have stood there, as if she had a feeling that her son was going home.
"Mom."
"Youth."
"Mom."
"Youth." Again the slap landed.
Rio turned his face the other way, having no heart to see Arka.
"Mom never taught you to sell yourself Arka."
His mother's voice was heard, but a condition of anger and disappointment.
"Mom."
"Mommy is already quite hurt, knowing that you are impregnating women. And today I just found out one more fact, that you gave your mother and father some ill-gotten money."
"That's not illegal money, ma'am. Arka didn't commit adultery with her, Arka married Amanda."
Lightning as if it were snatching.
"Wedding did you say?"
"Yes mom, Arka and Amanda are married. All Arka did for mom and dad. Arka had no other way back then. The money that Arka wants to use to pay for college, all Arka pay the principal of the mother's debt in one of the loan sharks that Arka collect that day. Arka on forced leave from campus, not long the hospital called and said that papa needed surgery immediately. Try to think about how Arka's necklace at that time, until Arka decided to marry Amanda's contract. She loves Arka money, Arka loves her son. Then we'll get divorced when the boy is born."
"Plaaaac."
"Plaaaac."
"Just like you're playing with marriage, you're rude Arkaaa."
His mother continued to shout and beat Arka blindly, making Rio forced to separate. Arka's father who had just returned home immediately ran and joined to separate them.
"Mom, it's mom."
Rio pulled Arka's mother, but the woman rebelled. While Arka was fortified by his father.
"That's why you're playing with marriage. You think marriage is as easy as buying and returning things. What demon has possessed your mind Arkaaa?"
"Murbo."
"Plaaak, plaaak, plaaak."
Blows and slaps continued on his mother's side. Because Arka protected his stepfather, the blow was often about Arka's stepfather.
Arka's tears flowed, not because she was crybaby. But he remembered when he was a child, once persecuted by his mother to the point of being so severe. Because the mother saw Arka very similar to her biological father.
Arka's heart was instantly shattered, was her mistake this time so fatal. To make his mother so angry and hate him. His mother kept shouting, Rio pulled the woman inside. Meanwhile, the stepfather hugged Arka.
"Sorry, pa." Arka sobbed in her sadness.
"Parents are sorry, son. If it wasn't for papa getting sick, we wouldn't be in a lot of debt and you wouldn't be like this."
Arka kept hugging her father.
While inside, Rio looked to calm Arka's mother.
"I'm sorry, ma'am. Arka did all this for you."
Arka's mother did not answer, just sat quietly with a distant look somewhere. His tears were flowing, he did not expect his son would do something like this.
"Arka married Amanda because of money. He also impregnated Amanda for money, but that was before."
This time Arka's mother looked at Rio.
"Now that they love each other, they no longer intend to separate. Arka does not want his son to be like him, left with his own biological father. Arka also did not rely on Amanda's money. Apart from debt and the cost of papa's treatment, Arka makes his own money. Which Arka often sent to the mother was the result of her hard work. He refused Amanda's money because of her..."
"Call Arka here, I want to talk."
Arka's mother's voice no longer rose. She speaks like a mother who commands her child to do something. Rio nodded, he walked towards the terrace and looked at Arka. He gave the friend a code to enter.
Arka looked at her father, the man nodded. Slowly Arka entered, she found her mother in the room and immediately rested in front of her.
"Sorry Arka, ma'am." said Arka while immersed in both her mother's hands and knees, who was sitting on the bed.
The young man's tears flowed, as did his mother. Slowly his mother raised her hand and stroked the boy's head.
"Mother love you, Arka."
"Sorry, ma'am."
His mother also took Arka into her arms. Arka then cried as she pleased.
"I'm sorry mom, too, son. Sorry mom."
They both drowned in tears. Then her mother wiped away the tears on Arka's face.
"Go home to your wife's house, bring her here."
Arka was silent watching her mother.
"But ma'am."
He hasn't even told Amanda about this.
"He's mom's son-in-law and papa's. The child she was carrying, our granddaughter. Bring him here, son."
Arka is now confused, because Amanda is a rich woman. Would he set foot in a simple house like this. Is he able to respect both his parents who come from ordinary people. How to explain it to Amanda.
***
"Hhhh."
Arka sighed, it had already been two hours. After his return from his parents' home. He was still confused by the mother's last request.
