Willy's face looked very tired, the company he founded when he was going to marry Melati first seemed to be unable to maintain anymore.
Willy laid off all his employees today. And regarding the benefits for employees, he only promises after he gets the money.
At the moment there is no other choice for Willy, he must want to work with his mother. He longed to have a company of his hard work, but all is now gone. His own business went bankrupt.
Just as Willy was about to get in the car, his phone rang. He saw the aunt's name on it. Willy accepts.
"*What's up bi... "
"This sir... Alvin's.. "
"Why Alvin, where's Yana.. "
"Mother Yana has left the house from yesterday sir and has not returned yet"
"What does aunt mean. He didn't bring Alvin.. "
"No sir. anu sir... "
"Anu what bi... "
"So there the father said, this house must be vacated immediately because he has given enough time for the father to move. He said it was bought. I have to how sir. I want to go, but later Alvin's the same. There's no way I left Alvin alone, so I beg you to pick Alvin up"
"What does this Yana mean. Why he left his son. Alright bi.. I'll be there immediately*"
Willy drives his car to the house he once bought for Melati and has now changed hands.
Arriving in the yard, Willy was silent in the car while looking at the house where he had built a household with Melati.
"This house actually holds a lot of memories. If I didn't need the money, I wouldn't have sold it. I have given this to Melati and Nabila but I shamelessly asked him to come back and sell it. I am a loser. Melati. If I could turn back time, I wouldn't want to be in the moment. I want time to go back to the beginning when we met and got married, when we both still loved each other. You have found your happiness now. But I'm still trying to figure out where my happiness is, or it never was for me. Is this all karma for what I did to you. If you'd just give me one more chance, I'd try to be Willy again as you first knew him. I'll leave everything you don't like. But is it possible, seeing you now it seems like it will never happen..."
Willy wiped away the tears dripping from the corner of his eyes. He got out of the car slowly. Willy walks into the house and sees Alvin playing. Alvin is now one year old. Bobby was two years older and Nabila was three years older.
"Pa.. Pa. "the new Alvin pronunciation learned to say the word.
"Yes darling.. Alvin's doing what, son.. Main yes. Alvin's eating"
"Mom.mom... "
"Mama.... "
"Mom.mom.... "
"Mamam. Alvin's hungry. Wait, you ask auntie if there's still Alvin's food"
Willy looks for an aunt who turns out to be in the kitchen making rice for Alvin
"Father.I'm sorry sir I didn't know you were coming "
"Not what bi.. That's rice for Alvin bi. He looks hungry"
"Sir, Alvin was a little fussy not to be left, so a little late I made the meal sir"
"No matter what Bi.Give it soon bi, Alvin is already very hungry"
"Bie.. Alvin I'll take it, auntie can leave the house now. Aunty stack up aunt's belongings after Alvin eats."
"Good sir... "
After Alvin eats, the aunt arranges her luggage .Don't forget auntie's got Alvin's clothes ready. After that, he wanted to leave.
"Bi. This is a little for aunt. Salary and allowance are few. Sorry ma'am, I can't give more because my finances are also in trouble"
"Not what sir.thank you. I say goodbye first. Alvin. auntie pamit. Don't be naughty and don't fuss if there's no aunt "say aunt while holding back tears. Because he really loves Alvin who he has taken care of from the baby.
After the aunt left, Willy left the house with Alvin. Before he drives his car, Willy sees the house.
"Is it a sign that we can't possibly go back, Mel. All those memories are not left.. Here we were once happy once.Now I leave this house full of sadness. It will all really end... "
Willy finally brings Alvin to his mother's house. Mama who saw Willy carrying a boy became astonished.
"Whose son are you carrying" asked Mama
"Child Yana... "
"What do you mean to bring this child home" asked Lani
"I want to ask your mom to take care of Alvin"
"Where is the jal*ng woman. Did he leave you after knowing you were broke"
"Ma. I'm really tired today. Please don't argue this time. I'm just asking mama to look after Alvin until I can find Yana."
Willy put the sleeping Alvin on the couch. He sat next to her and looked at Alvin's face.
"Alvin. Papa never thought you weren't my flesh and blood. And I love you so much. Right now, when I find out you're not my son, I still can't hate you . Though papa wants to build a good household with your mama, but it turns out your mama has been lying to papa all this time. Papa really loves your mom. But he has betrayed papa. But this papa is a man, who should not fall down just because of the actions of a woman.... "
"So you mean this kid will stay here as long as his mother can't find yet. Where her mother fled. That's the woman you defend, the one you love. Finally leaving you when you are in the economic slump" Lani said
Willy just kept quiet as he closed his eyes and massaged his forehead. His face looked very wrinkled.
"Why.. now you regret taking it from the trash, you who intended to take it to be a good woman turned out to leave you too." said Lani again.
"Lani, I told you, I'm tired. I don't want to argue. Let me calm down for a second "
"Tired of thinking about the woman, you now know what it feels like to be ignored. Just found out what it's like to be betrayed "
"I'm enough to say. Didn't you hear what I said earlier, if I wanted to rest. Don't provoke my emotions."
"Hopefully after Yana's departure you can come to your senses." said Lani leaving Willy.
"I hope Yana will never come back. Let you know what it's like to be abandoned by the people you love. You used to ignore me for Yana, you defended her more than I did. Now you know who Yana is and what her true nature is"
