Deg.
Bram was shocked. The feathers shuddered at the words of Mr. Uban. Because almost a month with the long-haired man, only this time he saw the face of Pak Uban very seriously talking despite his typical laughter.
"What do you mean you want to meet my in-laws?"
Bram who was embarrassed finally inevitably urged Mr. Uban to immediately say his purpose and purpose. He regretted, he should have asked yesterday what Pak Uban meant to meet with Kyai Rohim.
Unlike Bram Kyai Rohim did not change once from the look of his face there is no anger, because again heard the cause of his only brother died. Kyai Rohim just took a heavy breath and exhaled calmly.
"Bram, lower your voice, son. He's older than you."
Kyai Rohim reminds his son-in-law because Bram's clash just made Kyai Rohim understand that his daughter-in-law may not yet understand that an adab and morals are more important than a science.
Kyai Rohim is one of the teachers among pesantren who do not underestimate the importance of studying. But Kyai Rohim still apply to his students that one of the important foundations of a science to be conveyed to anyone it requires adab and morals.
"Sorry Bi..."
Bram who first met Kyai Rohim was very arrogant in speaking and behaving. Either because of his love for his wife or indeed a Hidayah who has been present in his life. Now able to respect the parents and teachers of his wife.
"Why should you tell me the truth that maybe you should be pretty damned."
"Damor..... Hix.... Hix.... "
Mr. Uban bowed. His crying voice sounded. Bram who was sitting next to Pak Uban could see clearly the hand of Pak Uban who was wet covering both eyes. Several times the hand wiped both of its neutrals with the tip of its index finger and thumb.
"Hey..... Where were you ignorant, arrogant yesterday. I can cry too."
"Tell me sir. I will listen if there is anything I have to listen to but if you demand that I do what I asked for decades ago. Sorry I can't."
Mr. Uban began to calm himself down. He lifted his bowed head until a face soaked in tears could be seen by Kyai Rohim sitting before him.
Finally the story decades ago that Kyai Rohim never knew was opened today by God through Bram who had to serve the punishment in this field.
Mr. Uban said that he had damaged the brakes of Munir's car while Munir was still in Surabaya before picking up Nuaima. He sabotaged it by reducing brake fluid on Munir's car until when the trip away from Surabaya Munir to Kali Bening new impact on the brake pedal when he will return to Surabaya with Nuaima.
"I did it because I was a drug user Pak Kyai. Then I need the money. In various ways as long as I get the item. So I, who was often a confidant of Mr. Bagas in doing things that required threats and violence, accepted the task of making Munir's car brakes to make it look purely accidental."
"wait. Bagasses. I'm like no stranger to that name."
Kyai Rohim looks to nod his head.
There is pain in Kyai Rohim's heart hearing Pak Uban's words. But he tried to listen to what this man really meant.
"Why do you want to meet me when you enter this place not because of the death of Munir and Nuaima?"
Kyai Rohim lifted his black skull and scratched his itchy back head and restored the position of the skull again.
Mr. Uban told me when he needed a fee to return to buy the illegal goods. He asked Mr. Bagas for the money back by threatening to expose the true events to Nuaima and Munir. Naas when the incident Pak Uban who was feeling very need for illegal drugs was desperate to finish off Mr. Bagas, because he continued to be despised.
At that time Pak Uban carried a homemade weapon which in the law of the Republic of Indonesia is not legally valid for illegal weapons possession. As well as endangering the surrounding community because it triggers crimes around one of them illegal firearms ownership.
He intended to shoot Mr. Bagas but the one who was shot was Pak Bagas' wife who suddenly appeared from outside the work room of Mr. Bagas. Even the life of Mr. Bagas' wife could not be saved. Until Mr. Uban was arrested by the police and sentenced to life. Because of the layered case he got. From not only as a user but he also became a dealer, not to mention the case of robbery in some areas he also became the culprit. And the victims died from the action there were also several people.
Regrets did come too late when half the age he spent in the toilet, the death of his wife and child due to the Covid Virus 19 made him very hit and began to improve himself. He who thinks if he has served punishment in this world for some crime in the past then his heart is still restless. He is agitated because his crimes against Munir and Nuaima have not been punished.
Pak Uban's fear of one that he believed and justified the torture of the grave so he felt he wanted to apologize from the Munir family.
The sound of crying that there is only a man breathing from the nose because of the fluid that makes the nose can not breathe a sigh of relief is heard from the sidelines of Mr. Uban's words.
"I want to apologize to Mr. Kyai and the children of Munir and Nuaima. I want to apologize.... Hix.... Hicks..."
Bram who from yesterday looked down on even disliked Mr. Uban this time was embarrassed. The man older than his age whom he looked down upon, even had such a tender heart. How can a heart make both eyes cry because it remembers sin if that lump of heart has no tenderness.
Even he himself until now is still difficult just to cry when praying because he remembers his sins in the past. The tears of the CEO of MIKEL Group were only able to be produced a few months if he saw his wife sad or hurt.
Kyai Rohim changed his seat. He sat next to Pak Uban. He patted Pak Uban's shoulder.
"Sir, this man is indeed a place of error and sin. But that does not mean there is no way to improve ourselves when we realize that we have sinned. For no matter how great the sin of a servant, the door of God's grace is always open. God gives man the opportunity to improve himself by repenting of the sins he has committed in the past or present."
"Huuu.....Huuu..... "
Mr. Uban's crying broke. There was a sense of tightness in his chest a sense of decades of tightness. He regretted every sin he made. But when the hair of the head has turned white he only realized if he was a servant full of sin.
"Have my treatment been accepted, Mr. Kyai? Huuu.... Huuu.... I am afraid that I will be difficult in the world still difficult in the grave and in the hereafter.... Huuu.... Huuu... Hix... Hicksw...."
The sound of Mr. Uban crying and tears on his cheeks were able to make a pair of eyes that just saw the scene shed tears.
