Marrying a Crazy Man

Marrying a Crazy Man
Sorry about Firo.


Mr. Bram ran a little past every corner of the Prodeo Hotel. He was in a hurry because he was so excited, passing through the rows of iron bars neatly lined up in each room. A faint smile was drawn from her slightly pale lips.


There were some prisoners greeting him, They're like a new family to Mr. Bram. Of the prisoners there are among those who will be executed just like him, "Congratulations Mr. Bram," they exclaimed alternately.


For them there is one family who visit, is a gift that is most valuable than money. Mr. Bram returned their greeting with a smile, "Thank you" he said happily.


Mr. Bram seemed to tremble violently when his footsteps arrived at the big room, What he wanted from year to year is already today. The skinny body seemed to be walking slowly towards the two men who were waiting for him.


He has been in prison for almost five years now. Yes, Mr. Bram who has been used to being alone and isolated, now looks happy.


"Grandfather.." cried little Drago running over to Mr. Bram.


Little Drago hugged that thin, increasingly wrinkled body tightly, "Did grandpa miss me?" ask Drago with sparkling eyes.


Mr. Bram hugged back and aligned his body with the little boy before him. He could not hold the tears that had been welling up in his eyes. Simultaneously her tears fell on Drago's shoulder.


Mr. Bram kissed the cheek of the little boy who was nearby repeatedly, "Firo! Is this kid my grandson?" ask Mr. Bram slowly.


Firo nodded in agreement, From earlier he had only watched the two.


"Drago, say hello to your grandfather!" firo to Drago.


Drago then kissed the old man's back hand, "How are you, Grandma? Drago misses you so much!" drago said as he rubbed Mr. Bram's cheek, "Say Papa, Men should not cry, Why is grandfather crying?"


Mr. Bram let the tiny hand touch his face, "Males may cry, Son! Especially if you cry because you are happy" said Mr. Bram. He then carried Drago closer to Firo who was sitting in front of a large table.


"Grandfather's news is very good. Turns out you were this big, Grandpa last saw you when you were a year old. Thank you for visiting my grandfather again" said Mr. Bram sitting the little boy in the chair.


At the age of one year, Medina had visited Mr. Bram twice while still in the old Lapasa. Because Lapasa is now off the island, Medina has never visited Mr. Bram again with Drago.


Firo was still watching his grandfather and grandson give up the longing. He was so happy to see Drago so happy to meet his grandfather. They sat on a table that separated the two.


"Thank you, I'm going to see you, Firo" Mr. Bram said, staring at his son.


You finally want to see me too. Inner Mr. Bram.


Firo nodded back looking into his father's eyes.


"Daddy got a greeting from Mey, I'm sorry he can't see you again" Firo said, "True three more days, Daddy will..." Firo can't continue his words.


Firo threw his face to the side, Breathing slowly while holding back his nearly dripping tears. He really misses his father.


"I'm sorry, Daddy. Only able to see you now," Firo still turned his face away, trying to hide the tears that had been dripping down his right cheek, Clearly he could not show it in front of his son.


Mr. Bram hugged his grandson's body and put the little boy to sleep on his lap. Drago was playing with a wooden toy made by him while in Lapasa.


Firo stared at the wrinkled face of his aging father. The man looked pityingly in front of Firo, "I've forgiven everything, Daddy. Now tell me, what's your last request? I'll grant you everything" Firo put his hand on the table.


Hearing Firo's question, Mr. Bram shook his head. He then thrust out a book in front of Firo, "Take care of yourself and your family, In this book there are names of people you should beware of. In this book too, Daddy has written a lot of everything. I want you to read it when I'm dead" explained Mr. Bram.


Firo grabs a book from his father's hand, "Is his punishment not to be replaced with another? Why not appeal in court?" ask Firo. Mr. Bram just shook his head to reply.


Actually all this time behind Mr. Bram, Firo tried to bring in a lawyer to ease his father's sentence. But every time a lawyer meets him, Mr. Bram always refuses to appeal to the court. He said the death penalty was the right punishment for him.


"Can't the death penalty be dropped?" Firo asked back. These few weeks he could not sleep when he heard his father would be executed in a few days.


"I've accepted everything, Firo. I'm sorry Daddy couldn't be a good father to you!" said Mr. Bram while stroking his grandson's hair.


Firo retreated his chair, "Then ask that the execution not be carried out for three more days. Drago still wants to see you, Daddy." This time he could not hold back his tears. He covered his face with a book so Drago wouldn't see him crying.


Drago who was busy with his toys ran over to Firo, "Papa, said the grandfather could cry. Especially if you cry because you are happy. Isn't papa happy about meeting grandpa?"


Firo immediately wiped away his tears, "You're really a smart kid! Did you say thank you to Grandpa for making so many toys for you?" Firo tries to divert Drago's words.


Drago went back to his grandfather, "Thank you, cake. I love my grandfather's toys. If Drago comes here again, Grandpa has to make more toys for Drago, then Drago will give them to El and Denis. They will, too," said Drago innocently.


Mr. Bram rubbed Drago's hair gently, "Grandfather doesn't promise ya, son. Because in a moment, grandpa will be gone once. If Drago wants later, ask for help papa who made it for Drago's friend," said Mr. Bram.


"Drago can't come, Cake? What's going on abroad, like El's father?"


Mr. Bram shook his head, "Later if it's big, Drago will know where you're going" said Mr. Bram.


The Passenger saw them from afar, Actually Firo's visiting time is up, he let the father and son let go of his longing.


It's been almost an hour since Firo visited Mr. Bram. Mr. Bram is more likely to chat with his grandson, Firo who is usually never close to Mr. Bram, looks so warm talking to his father.


Because it had been almost two hours Firo visited Mr. Bram, the Field Officer finally told Firo to end their meeting.


"Daddy, I love you so much. I promise to see you again" said Firo hugging Mr. Bram.


Firo hugged his son back, "Thank you, son. Take good care of yourself and your family" said Mr. Bram.


Before entering into the bars Mr. Bram kissed Drago's forehead, "Be a good boy, Drago"


Orion Drago, the boy nodded, "I promise to be a good boy, Grandpa"


Simultaneously, Mr. Bram stepped in with the Passenger leaving Firo and Drago so sad to see his departure.
