My Baby'S Daddy
Imelda's Confession to Bu Dita

"What you say is not true! You guys don't even know the real story about Alina! So, never say anything non-no about it!" continue Imelda while pointing at the faces of the Mothers.

The mothers shook their heads while looking at Imelda. "God! Why are you the sewot? Oh, don't be right if you're the same. Aye, right?!"

"Enough! You've slandered Alina without knowing the real story! You guys have really gone too far!"

Imelda who was already unable to contain her emotions immediately left the place.

"Who's the girl?" asked one of the other Mothers who had just arrived at the place after hearing the noise between Imelda and the woman.

"Eitherway! She was furious after I told her about Alina. Maybe she's the same as Alina, so she didn't take it when Alina was said to be like that" she said.

Meanwhile, Imelda continued to step her feet away from the place while muttering ria. He did not understand why the villagers could come to such a conclusion against Alina.

"They are outrageous! Without finding out the truth, they would have driven Alina away!" annoyed Imelda with a flushed face.

However, a second later the look on his face returned moody. "This is all a result of my actions. If I hadn't done that, maybe Alina would still be here with Miss Nadia" said Imelda, who shed her tears.

"Alina .. Where are you? Yeah, God! Wherever Alina is, please protect her" he continued.

Imelda stepped unsteadily towards without knowing the direction and purpose. He was confused where to look for Alina's whereabouts. Amidst his confusion, Imelda's eyes suddenly turned to a public burial place.

He remembered that Madam Nadia was buried in that place. Imelda stopped her steps while staring at a tomb not far from the crowded street. He knew that the tomb was the tomb of Alina's mother.

"Mother Nadia" said Imelda.

Finally, Imelda chose to visit the tomb of Bu Nadia. He approached the tomb while looking at it. Bu Nadia's grave looks very clean and well maintained. Imelda sat there and read a prayer for the late Madam Nadia.

"Mother Nadia, I know that the mistakes I made against Mom and Alina have been outrageous and inexcusable. But, I'm really sorry, Mom. I'll do anything to get your forgiveness."

After being content to pour out his heart in front of Bu Nadia's tomb, Imelda decided to meet her mother. This time he chose to take an ojek to take him to the residence of his parents.

Not long after, he arrived in front of his parents' residence. After paying the motorcycle taxi driver, Imelda immediately entered and looked for the whereabouts of Bu Dita.

"Mom?! Where's mom?" call Imelda while looking for her mother's whereabouts to the whole room.

"Imelda baby, why don't you call Mom? Can the driver pick you up?" said Bu Dita as he approached Imelda.

"Ehm, Mum. Actually there is something I want to talk to Mom about and this is very important" Imelda said.

Ms. Dita is getting confused. He noticed Imelda's disheveled face and then led her to the sofa in the main room of their house. "We'd better sit down, son. Only then did you tell me everything."

"Bu ..," said Imelda with a sad face looking at Bu Dita when they both sat on the sofa.

"What the hell is it, son? Why is your face so tangled? Don't worry, does this have anything to do with your husband? Did your husband do you any harm? What has he done to you, Imelda?! Tell me about Mom." Bu Dita was worried, he examined Imelda's body carefully. He did not want anything unwanted to happen to his daughter.

"No, Ma. It's not about Chandra, it's about anything else. It's about ...." Imelda was silent again. At that time he was really scared and it took a lot of courage to admit all the mistakes he had made against Alina.

"Didn't you? Oh, thank goodness. Then who's this about? Say it, son." Bu Dita is a little relieved because this is not about Chandra. However, he was still confused as to what Imelda wanted to talk to him about.

Imelda took a deep breath and then exhaled again slowly. "It's actually about Alina, Mom."

"Alinea? What's wrong with Alina?!" The curiosity of Bu Dita became more and more after the name of the girl was mentioned. During this time Bu Dita felt very guilty for firing Alina without reason from her job. He knew that the girl still needed the job.

"Everything Alina says is true, ma'am. I was the wrong one. I've done what I shouldn't have done to Alina and now Alina has to endure it all. I'm sorry, Mom!" Imelda dropped herself while sobbing in front of Bu Dita and she rested in front of the middle-aged woman's feet.

Bu Dita tried to remember the girl's words the last time they met and after remembering everything, Ms. Dita started to get inflamed and her face flushed instantly.

"What?! Ja-so what Alina said is true, Imelda?!" Pekik Bu Dita with stammering.

"Yes, Mom! Forgive Imelda," Imelda cried hysterically in front of Bu Dita.

Ms. Dita was so shocked to hear it. His voice seemed to be stuck in the esophagus. Even swallowing the saliva was very difficult.

Slowly, Bu Dita's tears fell on both of her cheeks. He did not think that Imelda could do such evil to others. Moreover, that person was Alina, a friend who was already like her own brother.

"Yes, God! Forgive our sins!" mummified Bu Dita because he remembered Alina was an orphan girl they had dzolimi.
