I decided to leave the house of in-laws because I couldn't hear the truth that Andre had done to me and Reyna.
"Mother why.." asked the taxi driver, because he saw me crying.
"Take me pu-lang sir." I said stammered.
"Good ma'am." he said without asking again.
I looked at Reyna who was still fast asleep with a blank look. My heart is broken and betrayed by the man I have always respected and loved.
I still remember all the attention he gave me and Reyna, he treated us so sweetly. Maybe that includes the trick just to trick me.
Mas Andre changed a lot when he did not come home that night, and came home after the morning with a messy look and lipstick on his shirt.
"Mom we've arrived." said the taxi driver.
" Good sir, thank you for taking care of my son. This is for you." I said give the 100k 4 pieces of money to the father.
"But this is too much ma'am" he said confusedly.
"It's okay, sir, for my father because he took care of my son earlier" I said.
"But ma'am." he said stopped.
"Thank you sir, it's not good to refuse sustenance." I said.
"Well thank you very much ma'am, O Allah thank you for granting me my prayer." he said with gratitude.
"What's wrong.?" many confused.
"My wife has been sick for 3 days, ma'am, but I have no money to ask her for treatment. Once again thank you very much ma'am." he said sincerely.
"Sama-sama sir, may his wife recover quickly sir." I said.
"Amin ma'am, amen." he said.
I got out of the taxi with mixed feelings, there was sad there was moved as well. Saddened by the betrayal of Andre mas and touched by the struggle of taxi drivers looking for money for the treatment of his wife. Suppose that.....
Never mind.
"Mom." Call the cab driver to stop my steps
"Yes sir, what's the matter..?" I said.
"Remember ma'am, never despair of moving forward. Do not feel betrayed to make the mother hurt and slumped after. Look at that beautiful girl mom in mom's hands, her future is still long and you have to fight strong with all these trials. Never give up on all the problems that happen to you. Bedo'a is the same as Allah and ask for his guidance." the driver's advice.
"Thank you sir for the advice, I went in first." I said.
'That's exactly what the driver said, I have to be strong to face this ordeal. True darling, your future is still long and Mother will fight for all your rights son." My inner being Reyna who is still asleep.
I went into my room and laid Reyna on my bed.
'Okay, I'll follow all your games."
After that, I went to the bathroom to relax my mind by soaking in a bath that was filled with warm water.
In the sense that it was enough, I went out of the bathroom after ablution to perform the magrib prayer.
After the prayer, I took the time to read the Quran for a while.
'O Allah, grant the servant patience and fortitude to face this severe ordeal. Give the servant a way to get out of this problem. Indeed, I do not sincerely divide my husband with other women, even though a husband is allowed to have more than 1 wife, but I do not care if the road is like this. O Allah, protect us wherever we are...
I do not feel my tears fall, considering all the behavior of Andre mas from the beginning of dating, marrying, to having children and now the betrayal that was done by Andre mas behind my back.
"It's Riana, you don't have to cry for the person who hurt your heart. What are you crying for? By crying you can't change everything, you have to be strong with all this, yes you can definitely Riana." I said to myself.
In a dream, I heard someone calling my name, but I did not see that person because the lighting in that place was very bright beyond the light during the day.
"Riana.." call him, I feel familiar in my ears, the voice was like...
"Riana dear.."call her again.
"Mother-mom, where's mother?Riana misses mother." I said in tears, looking for their whereabouts.
"We're here, son." he said. I looked for the origin of the sound, from a distance I saw lovers or what I do not know, I could not see their faces clearly. But I can recognize both of them from their body posture.
"Dad, Mother." I ran up to them.
"Dad, mother, I miss you so much. Why would you leave me alone? I want to stay with mom and dad again...Hiks hyks.." I said crying in their arms.
"Mother and father miss you too dear. It's Riana's destiny, the fate you have to face dear." said the mother wiped my tears.
"Dear, what your mother said was right. I'm sure you must be strong with this whole ordeal and you're not alone Riana. After all you're not alone Riana, have you forgotten my beautiful and smart granddaughter dear.." she said gently.
"Reyna.." I said.
"Yes, honey, you're right. The little girl desperately needed a mother's affection and love for her" said the father.
"But Andre is playing behind me...Hiks hyks.."
"Patience, all trials must have a silver lining. One day the man will apologize for his treatment of you and your child" said the mother hugging me tightly.
"Okay dad, your mother is right, I must be strong with all of this" I said.
"Darling you're still keeping the box I once loved you 9 years ago.." Ask.
"Still dad, what's wrong with the box.." I asked back.
"Don't you always ask me where my father's family is? That's where you'll get a lead to find their whereabouts. Once you find them please give me a white envelope that says 'for daddy and mommy'. Please give it to them." he said.
"Ja-so all this time I have grandparents from my father.", I was surprised.
"Yes dear, I'm sorry Dad and mom have been covering the existence of both parents. We're just afraid something might happen to you once they know where you are. And father had good reason to leave them.." said mother, I looked deeply into father's eyes, and there was a very heavy regret in those eyes.
"Alright, I promise I will try to find their existence for the sake of father and mother" I said seriously.
"Thank you dear you are indeed the mother's unclean child with the father. But I'm sorry we have to go now" he said.
"Where are you going..?" my many.
"We have to go, baby, this is not my mother's place, father." she said, walking away from me.
"Mother, father don't leave me." I cried, I saw them smilingly waving at me.
"Mother, father...
"Mother... Don't leave me again..
"Unda ngun (delay awake)... I opened my eyes as soon as Reyna woke me up.
"Darling why crying." I asked to see Reyna crying.
"Unda napa, papa unda teyak-teyak noda dad unda, Eyna acute unda (Mother why, why mom screams call daddy bunsa, Reyna afraid mother.)" he said crying.
"I'm sorry mommy, baby, for scaring you." I said pulling the tiny body into my arms.
'Dad, mother. I will keep my promise to you to discover the whereabouts of my grandparents.
