The Life 3 Basket
Chapters.187. Disillusioned
Ezra twists Marinka's hair, a habit of being confused about starting a conversation. Marinka suddenly sat down in tears, and Ezrapun followed her.
Ezra grabbed both sides of Marinka's face, crying, while wiping away Marinka's tears with both palms.
"Sorry brother who has made a cry many times. Brother does not intend to make a sad adek by keeping a secret of that magnitude. But believe me, brother is also helpless."
"But my brother was disappointed by hiding it. You know you don't want to be in touch with the cruel past anymore."
"Yes that's precisely his brother hide it, because brother does not want to make adek hurt. But honey, after much thought, it's not a good solution to always hate our past without knowing what the truth is."
"What does brother mean? are you siding with them?"
"Hey dear..what did you say? my brother has always supported me, and always will. Right now you are angry, you need rest. We'll talk about it again, okay?"
"There's nothing more to talk about when it comes to that cruel woman."
Marinka lay down and turned her back to Ezra. Ezra let out a long sigh, he knew it would be like this when the truth was revealed.
Ezra was forced to let Marinka calm down first and lay back down while hugging Marinka from behind.

Ezra kissed the top of Marinka's head and also kissed her on the lip. Unknowingly while asleep Marinka had turned her body, so Ezra more freely looked at the face of his wife who was asleep.
"Honey. Wake up, it's afternoon. Prayer time is running out" whispered Ezra.
Blammm
Marinka's eyes opened for a moment, upon hearing her husband's words. The woman rushed down from the bed and cleaned herself up. After completion, he then carried out the worship which was fairly late.
"Come here!" said Ezra after seeing Marinka finished praying and was folding face down.
Marinka put the prayer equipment in place, the woman then approached her husband by sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Are you talking now?" ask Ezra.
"What would you like to talk about? if you want to talk about that person, it's better not to. Adek was not interested in hearing it at all." said Marinka.
"Honey. However she is your birth mother, the one who gave birth to you. I know you're very disappointed, because you've already left you at the orphanage. But at least you listen to the explanation" said Ezra.
Marinka chuckles when she hears Ezra calling Lilian Mother.
"It seems like my brother is already very familiar with that person. Even Brother has called her by the name of mother."
Ezra grabbed Marinka's face with both hands. Marinka and Ezra's eyes meet.
"Honey. Listen brother, brother does not want you to regret later on because maybe you do not have much time to explain it to you. Imagine when that day comes. The day that regret comes, when you begin to realize the meaning of its existence that you have longed for so far. And when you come to see him, he's already stiffened and ready to be mummified."

Marinka's heart was pounding violently when she heard all Ezra's words.
"Abang knows you are angry, upset and disappointed. Actually, I really want to explain it to you. Why did Lilian's mother have to leave you at that orphanage. But Lilian's mother forbade me to tell her, because she wanted to tell it straight away."
"Silly excuse. Why then did he not explain it to this day? it's because he didn't have any ideas for making up a fake story, that I would believe everything he'd say."
"Mother has decided that until she dies, she will never see you and explain why she was forced to leave you at the orphanage."
"Why?"
"Because you said you didn't want to meet him, and didn't want to sin when you talked to him. Mother also agrees when adek beat him a cruel mother, because she also considers herself so."
"Honey. Brother will give you a real parable. If, in case, you were forced to separate from the children for the sake of the safety of the children, what would you do?" ask Ezra.
"She would part with the children for their safety, even if it was very painful."
"That's what happened to Lilian at the time. Mother is also helpless, but she must do that for your safety. And still hope that the miracle exists and can meet you again."
"But why is he showing up now?"
"That's because the cause or the root of the problem has been uprooted. Now the mother is free, and can freely meet you. But when he can see you, he has to pull himself back because he doesn't want to hurt you after meeting him again."
"Honey. Brother will not force you, but according to brother there is no harm in forgiving the mistakes of parents, because parents also always forgive the mistakes of their children. At least meet him once, after you hear all the explanations, you do not want to see him is okay. No one can force you, including brother."
"Dear love you, brother loves you very much. Brother told you, because brother does not want brother's wife to be a child who is disobedient to parents. Meet him while you have the chance,"
Grepppppp
Marinka enters Ezra's embrace with a broken sob. Ezra hugged her hug and did not feel she was crying. He knows very well what Marinka is feeling at the moment, he does not blame Marinka because Ezra can feel if he is in the position of his wife.

Ezra kissed every inch of Marinka's face, and wiped away the tears on her face.
"Wanna go?" ask Ezra.
Marinka nodded, and went back into Ezra's embrace.
"Remember adek, if when there will be out of control."
"Surely." Answer Ezra.
"Are we going to bring the kids?" ask Marinka.
"certain. We should also introduce them, if mother is their biological grandmother."
"Bao. Who's Mario? is he my real brother too? but why am I the only one left in the orphanage?"
"According to mom's story, you and Mario are the father's brothers."
"Daddy different? does that mean my mom married twice? is it because she married another man that she put me in an orphanage? so misunderstand what then?"
"Why do you like to draw your own conclusions? that's not what it really is. Her second husband was the cause of your mother's leaving you at the orphanage, but that's not how it is."
"Ah...adek better listen to the full story later. Don't like to guess. Later it can be categorized as slander."
Marinka. Even so, his mind branched out. Thinking as hard as he could, he could not look for any reproach to find the truth.
