...Behind Divorce...
After hearing Tasia's question, her mother was stunned for quite a while. While walking and stepping his feet against the kitchen window, his gaze that was raised up on the tree, with a wrinkled look on his face shriveled his sadness. He let out his long breath, maybe it was time for his daughter Tasia to know the truth. She hesitates a little to tell that but inevitably Tasia has to know the real thing behind her parents' divorce.
"You want to know Tasia?" his mother again. Tasia nodded confidently at the question to her mother then walked closer towards her mother. They were sitting next to the kitchen window. Soon her mother began to talk about her divorce.
"Your father and mother were married never approved of your grandfather's grandmother" said his mother, Tasia was shocked to hear Mother's statement. The grandmothers that his mother referred to were the parents of his father.
"So that means Daddy and Mommy ran away?" tanya Tasia was not sure. He shook his head,
"I mean mother, your father used to marry a mother without your Grandpa and Grandma, even though we married without the blessing of your father's family, but your father was determined to marry his mother, and the parents of mothers who were too old at that time, were forced to approve our marriage.
They cannot guarantee the future life of the mother. Mother's parents entrust your father to bear it all. After we got married we lived here. This is the mother's parents' house." her mother explained some of the story, Tasia's heart was full, and she felt sorry to listen to her mother's worried mass.
"Mother is the child of a poor farmer, the condition of the mother's parents was very difficult, coupled with the number of children are not small, the mother is the smallest child of 8 brothers.
That's why your father's parents never liked you!" continued again.
Tasia was just stunned listening to her mother's story while tilting her head and leaning her chin against her hands.
"After a month of marriage your mother and father, your grandfather or father's mother died, then after having Maya, his mother's mother died following the departure of her father's mother. One by one the mother's family does not exist." his mother's story as she furrowed her eyebrows then slightly watery eyes.
"Since the time you were a baby, Mom and Dad were planning to meet your Grandpa and Grandma in town. But their attitude is always indifferent to mother, after you have they never consider mother-in-law." sadly, the tears that were held back finally spilled out.
"Work in your father's office 5 years ago was in bankruptcy, your father can't keep that job anymore. At that time your grandfather came to help your father, but by asking for help from your grandfather's friend. They teamed up with the company, and betrothed your father to the daughter of your grandfather's friend. So now your father's office job is back."
"So so? means the woman who is his wife now is the woman whom Grandpa and his friend have betrothed to?!"
"Now I understand, why can't you refuse Grandpa's orders because he's his parents! so the position of the mother here she can only accept the decision of the father, for the sake of good relations between father and parents the mother is willing to sacrifice and left the father" Tasia thought in her heart, looking at his mother's face, saddened by the injury. She hugged and kissed her mother's cheek. Tasia tried to calm and heal her mother's heart.
"Mothers..By hearing the mother's story, Tasia promised herself, Tasia would not fall in love with the rich man's son." said Tasia suddenly. "Tasia was afraid that her parents would not accept Tasia either, as was the fate of her mother. Tasia doesn't want mom in contempt anymore. Tasia promised that someday Tasia would be happy for her mother, like Maya's sister.
"My son Tasia, look for a man like Supri, he's the son of an ordinary family, his parents Supri is just a porridgeer. But their hearts are so good, they love Maya as much as their own children." said his mother, who saw her eldest daughter had found her own happiness.
