Laura's POV
One sunny Saturday, as usual, the weekend was the time for me to go home.
By driving an old sedan car left by my father, splitting the streets of the capital, while humming ria. After driving for about 2 hours to the suburbs, I arrived at the place where I was raised by my parents.
Yes, my biological parents set up an orphanage, even though they were not wealthy people, but they had a great sense of humanity, a great affection for children, a great deal, because they can only have 1 child.
And when I was 5 years old, my father accidentally found a baby boy in front of our house, the father had reported to the head of RT, RT, but until 1 month no parents came to pick up the baby, so Mr. RT returned the baby to my father and mother.
Since then, the father and mother intend to establish an orphanage for abandoned children. Capitalized savings, donations and self-help communities, stood a simple orphanage on the land of 1 hectare of my grandfather's legacy.
And after my father and mother died, this orphanage was taken care of by my mother's friend who had been working with my parents to take care of the children in this orphanage.
Maria's mother, was the one who replaced my parents as the head of the orphanage. Together with her friend Aunt Lili, and several other workers to help take care of the children in the orphanage which number almost 30 people.
"Good day sir?" My greeting to the gardener who used to clean the parlour yard.
"Piang Non", he said
"Sir, are there any guests ? Whose car is that ?" I was curious to see a black Pajero sports car, parked in the courtyard of the home.
"Yes, there are guests. But I don't know who, it's been almost 1 hour not out".
"Yes sir, if I go in first, don't forget to have lunch sir".
"Yes, don't forget to eat lunch too".
I also stepped my feet towards the main door of the home, I greet one by one my sisters who play in the yard.
Bughh. "oh" a grimace after bumping into me.
"Well, what's the deck ?" Why are you running so scared ?". I asked my brother named Ian.
"Sister Lala, it's mom inside crying, sister please look at mom, Ian's scared brother".
"Why deck ?" Who's inside the same mother ?"
"Mother's in the same aunt Lili, and there's a stranger brother, Ian doesn't know who that is".
"Yes, now Ian ahead, play with the others, let the sister see the mother".
"Good brother". Ian left and I went into the living room.
"What is this..?" I walked closer to Maria's mother and Lily's crying aunt.
"When did you come..?" Maria asked as she rubbed her wet cheeks.
"Just now, ma'am, what's this why you're crying ?" I still asked, ignoring the two strangers who were looking at me cynically.
"Son..."
Not finished mother Mary spoke already heard the cry of one of the strangers.
"Who is this girl Maria ? Is she your daughter ?" Asked a middle-aged woman in her haughty style.
"It just so happens that if you're Maria's son, your mother has a huge debt with me, and now it has fallen into Tempo. If in 2 days your mother can't pay for it, then be prepared to leave this home". The woman spoke with no care to Mary's mother who kept crying.
"What..?? A lot of debt ?? How much money did my mom borrow from you ??" I asked without knowing who I was talking to.
"Son..." Maria's mother wanted to talk to me but was cut off again by the middle-aged woman.
"300 million, your mother borrowed 300 million from me". Exclaims
"Hey Maria, you borrowed that 200 million money 4 years ago, of course, to 300 million plus interest". The middle-aged woman replied increasingly haughty.
I am confused to face this situation, why did Maria's mother borrow that much money? Why is this home the guarantee of that debt..? Does my late mother know about this..? I can only hide.
"How's Maria, give me my money back right away, or empty the parlor right away?" The choice is in your hands".
Mary's mother was sobbing.I couldn't see Mary's mother's crying, the same crying when my mother died.
"I'll pay my mother's debt, but please give me some time, I'll pay it off". Answer me for sure.
"Of course, sweet boy, I give you 2 days, if in 2 days you don't pay it off, then empty the parlor".
“Anwar, let's go home, we'll be back again in 2 days, don't forget to get the heavy equipment ready to displace this parlour". The old woman left without our permission.
"Wait why only 2 days ? Give me 1 week". I begged him. He stopped and just turned his head towards me.
"Hey sweet boy, ask your mother how much time leniency I have given him, now there is no time leniency anymore, 2 days then there are only 2 days". He left, along with the man he called Anwar.
I'm closing in on Maria's mother and Lily's aunt, I want to know what really happened.
"Mom... What is this ? What don't I know Mom..?!" I asked as I clasped Maria's mother's hand.
The sobs of Mother Maria getting louder, Aunt Lily was holding Maria's mother while rubbing her back.
"Son. mother has a debt to the mother of 200 million. I don't understand why she said her debt was 300 million".
"Tell me Mom. Why did you borrow that much money?? For what ?? Are the sisters here at a low cost..?! I searched Maria's mother with a lot of questions.
"Son, maybe now it's time you know, actually the money you borrowed, for your mother's medical expenses all this time, more precisely, it was your mother who borrowed the money to Miss Melissa by mortgaging the estate's land certificate".
Degh's…
‘What..my...?’
"I mean mother?" So..."
I closed my mouth with both hands, unable to continue my words. Oh my God... My mother has been on medication by borrowing money from loan sharks ? My tears flowed without me asking.
During my mother's treatment, she always said there were donors who gave help, but in fact what ? Every time I ask, my mother always asks me to focus on learning, do not worry about the cost of treatment, always that's what he said.
"Mom.. Then why did the madam only give 2 days, why did she not want to give time to us ma'am ?" Ask me again when I can control myself.
"Actually he's been asking since 6 months ago son.but mother asked for time leniency, he gave 3 more months, but mother has not got that much money, but mother has not got that much money, and he's been coming a month". Obviously mother Maria.
"Why didn't mom tell me Mom ? Am I not a mother's child ?" Why doesn't anyone tell me this big of a problem?". I was almost angry, my hands clenched, I was honestly emotional.
"Nak not that we don't want to tell you, but we don't want your college to be interrupted, you also have to work for us, after coming home from college". This time it was Aunt Lily who made a sound.
"Then after all this happened, we can what auntie ? Are we going to let the kids go ? No aunty, my father would be very sad to see these abandoned children, and I can't let that happen".
This is my father's dream home to care for the orphaned children, I won't let anyone else take away let alone destroy this orphanage.
I stood up, I had to do something, too,. The fate of my brothers is in my hands.
"Mom.aunt.I have to go, pray for me, I hope I get the money". I took the hands of Maria's mother and Lily's aunt in turn.
"Where are you going, son?" Mary's mother asked me
"I'll find the money, ma'am"
