The One More Chance

The One More Chance
Sacrifice


Zahra's face is a sour house. "GO!". The thrill of venting out the frustration.


Again Abra laughed, stood up, interrupted Zahra's head and lowered his body until his face was right in front of Zahra. "i still miss you Ara" he murmured.

Zahra remained silent as if glued to Abra's gaze.


"but I can't be selfish, can I?, as you say I have thousands of employees working under me. I'll go but I'll come back and make sure I take you any way".


Zahra's jaw hardened, her eyes reddened, looking at Abra full of anger. Zahra brushed off Abra's hand, pushed him and stood up.


"I'll find out everything that happened to you after leaving me, this time I'm sure I can dig up all the information I want about you. Because he sent me here means he feels like there's not much time left and gives up on keeping you from my guard, because if he dies there's nothing to protect you".


"who?".


"Opa" Abra replied casually as he put both of his hands into his pants pocket.


"how can it?" Zahra shook her head. "he's your grandfather, how can you say he's going to die?" zahra's tone of voice was getting higher.


"so it's true that he's been helping you escape all along?".


Abra's eyes are very hostile, so glaring, full of anger, intimidating, disappointed but there is a sign of longing that he cannot hide from Zahra.


"i've been looking for you for years, every weekend. I'm always looking for you in the cities that pop up in my brain, and he knows it" Abra's voice went up. "after oma's departure he occupied me with all things corporate, do you know?".


Zahra silently did not answer.


"me" Abra hit his chest many times. "i keep looking, hire dozens of informants and even detectives to find you Ara. But no one has found you, not even your tracks".


They were silent, Abra was waiting for Zahra's response, but the woman was silent and did not respond.


Abra ended up laughing bitterly trying to show the pain of his heart all this time that he had completely covered from others. "i was even afraid to step on the hospital" he said softly as he stared at the sky. "I hate hospitals, I hate hospitals, I was suffocating every time I stepped on the hospital".


Zahra's eyes changed, she recalled the last time they met.


"last time I saw you, and for the last time my life was calm".


For a moment they were silent drifting in each other's minds, until Zahra's loud voice, which made Abra widen his eyes unexpectedly, after what he revealed the woman laughed instead.


Nanun when he looked back at Zahra, the woman was smiling broadly at Abra, but her eyes did not emit happiness, the gaze that always haunted Abra back Zahra showed made Abra clench his hands holding him back to look back at Zahra.


"me" Zahra raised her chin high. "go to your Opamu's aid, about three months after I left she found me. He didn't ask me to come back to you, but once I was healed and he could go under I never met him for years, ever, eight years ago, he found me and I left. And now..." Zahra stretched out her arms. "in the end I reached the eastern end of Madura Island, do not blame him if you do not know anything. You better go home now take care of the company, your children and wives do not interfere with my life, because until anytime I will not interfere with your lives, will never even need a dollar from you.


I am still able to support myself and Arz, from the past until whenever I will sacrifice everything for his sake. What you did to me a dozen years ago is enough to destroy us, so let us build our lives in peace. Excuse me".


Zahra walked quickly into her house and locked the door regardless of Abra being silent at the thought of digesting her every sentence.

"continue how?, you did not say anything to Mother?, or mother said what is it?, continue your own decision how?, the father of GG know you his son?, continue later....".


Plaque...


Mila's hand managed to pinch Gana's head perfectly to make Gana almost strayed back.


"Yes rerus banti you get beautiful shoes." marooned Mila dramatically while lifting her shoes.


Some of the people in the dock were staring at them.


After school Mila asked Regan to speak clearly to their two best friends. So now the four of them are sitting on the bridge at the most end of the pier, people around call it Pier Cinta because if it is Sunday many teenagers are dating.


"just give me the books and notes I've been looking for myself. I can't bear if the meaning of Mother's story, after all Mother also seems not ready" Regan looked at the faces of her three friends alternately.


"remarkable".


"good boy".


the three friends voiced what was on their minds together to make Regan chuckle.


"if Mr GG how?, know you're his son?" Gana asked again, this time with a serious mimic.


Regan shrugged both of her shoulders. "no, I'm also sometimes not sure I'm Mother's son".


"Hey".


"Woy".


Plaque...


Calls, reprimands and even punches from Mila's hands he received simultaneously.


The three friends are always compact in everything, even in bullying except in Gana's cleverness which must be questioned.


"Mother often tells the story of your pregnancy, how big the sacrifice can you imagine, right?. You still do not believe that you are Mother's child?" nagel Mila.


Rio's embracing Regan's shoulder. "didn't mom also save your photo from birth?".


"yes the photo of him when he entered the oven is also there" Gana said.


Regan chuckles. "incubator" the correction.


"just different functions, said the mother of the place to ngangetin baby almost the same as an oven" Gana evaded.


The three of them snorted simultaneously.


"Mother cannot be that dear and sacrifice everything for you, if you are not her real child" Mila returned to their original topic.


"think carefully" Rio said.


"he's actually a child so it's worth the thought to be struggling" Regan glared at Mila. "what?, do not support adults even though they have high school. Age is not a lie Adek".


"wahahahaa. he was angry later if in Panggi Adek" seduced Rio.


Regan just sighed, if her friends started bullying then she could only give up. "i was born prematurely, and Mommy has always been Over protective until now. Even telling the problem Mother almost never".


"for fear has burdened you".


"you're a kid, you're already in high school, but you haven't forgotten your age, have you?. As you get older, the more experience you have and from there you will become an adult. How old are you now?".


The three of them stared silently at Mila together.


"yes you are an adult" Regan said.


"indeed she's the one with more experience" Rio said.


"because she is the oldest age" Rio and Regan looked at Gana gesturing with eyes. "for that she often fathered, old age, so it should indeed indicate if she is old" Gana even continued because she felt noticed.


Mila's eyes glared at him pushing Gana to the upside, seeing Mila standing up Gana running while screaming.


He should have told his three friends early, although they were not much help but they could always change his mood with their silliness at the end.


Sacrifice


Yep... Her mother sacrificed everything for her. Every thing...
