Why Should I ?
Back to work

"mas Rama, that was the phone call. He's sorry he can't come now"

"why Rin?"

"mom's not feeling well she said"

Nurin, Rama's younger brother did not like Kinanti either. He was very upset when Rama brought Kinanti to play at his house. But, he still had some affection for Rama. He felt bad and decided to look at Kinan and his bloodless nephew.

"Easy! It doesn't matter if you don't love me anymore"

"soon? You're sick, you should be on the phone, ask for news. It's not that you think that's really that"

Nurin is a very devoted child. He was not happy to hear people booing his mother, including Rama.

"congratulations Kinan, I hope Nadira can grow up to be a sholeh, filial, intelligent child."

"aamiin, thank you aunt"

The face of this tiny baby is dim to look at. Nurin's eyes were not separated from her as long as she was there. Ms. Wati who is pretentious to him only occasionally he responds. Also Anna who is actually the same as Kinan, is not so fond of Nurin. But, all that he ignored and not taken heart.

"yes yes Mas, Nurin went home first. Mas, all right, don't forget to call mom if Mas is still dear"

Nurin moved from the front door of Kinan's room. He let Rama who was still standing there quietly. I don't know, what stifled his chest, filled his mind. Clearly, he had a sour face and was annoyed.

Rama dragged his feet in a daydream, his mind in a frenzy that afternoon. His heart was eager to be angry and rebellious at the mother who for him 'many reasons'. But her logic refused, however she was still the mother who had given birth and raised her.

This time, he was getting braver to his parents. No longer afraid of sin, let alone karma. He also forgot that the mother could curse him. So a stone, e-eh!

It all starts with a tormenting inner tension. She loves Kinanti very much, but she becomes her mother's child at home. He was very selfish and fierce, his nature was also luxurious when there was nothing to be proud of him.

"tumben bro, don't bring your ontel bike?"

"yes, I was from the clinic where Kinan was treated straight here"

"oh, how was he born? Healthy?"

"thank you! What's this beautiful?"

"beautiful!"

Diro is a close friend of Rama's when he is in the factory. He always helps Rama without the knowledge of superiors if Rama has difficulties. He is also a person who knows very well how the daily life of Rama, the feeling of Rama. He also understands how Kinanti. But that's not a portion of him to interfere with.

All he knew was that Rama loved the woman. He also considered the girl who was only two days old to be his flesh blood.

Rama POV

There is always joy and sorrow in the path we choose. What looks smooth is not necessarily slippery. And the gravel is not necessarily always difficult.

Yes this is my ration, the destiny I have chosen. I married the woman I love in a way that is not smooth. She has now given birth to the son of her ex, ah! He's my son! And she's very beautiful.

Nadira, father's son! You're a lamp in the darkness of father's world. Whoever printed you in the womb of Kinanti, but you're still a father's son. Whatever happens, you belong to me.

Look son, I can work quickly, properly and not spoil a lot of products anymore. I'm also more excited because of you, I don't know! What makes such a father unfortunately the same you.

"bluff Ram?"

It was that familiar voice to me that broke my daydream. Of course he's Diro, who else if not him who greeted me that seramah.

Trust me, it's been two years in this factory, but there's no friend but Diro. He is a non-voter. So, he just wanted to be friends with me even though it might start from pity anyway.

"iya. But I'm afraid it's the same dira"

"heh, not overtime? I'm gonna miss this!"

"embhhhhhh... Yes indeed. All of you"

Yeah, look at me, Nadira's just a real shield. But I miss my wife too. I'm worried if he's troubled. He's coming home today. Is Anna still there? Santi's mom? Or mba wulan? Uh! Mom was there, too. Never mind, all they need is money, not me!

Miris indeed, it feels right with the verse there is my brother's money dear, no money my brother kicked. Huhuhuhu,tate.
