Your Spirit from the Water of My Eyes
Chapters 11. Cannot Be juxtaposed.
Again Evan was silent when he got a question from his mother, and of course his silence made both parents become angry.
"alright. Turns out you really can't be talked to, Evan. Now go to the woman's house and don't come back to this house again at any time!"
Deg.
Evan gasped in shock when he heard the mother's words. "No, Ma. Why do you say that?"
Mery brushed off Evan's hand that was about to grab his hand, while Endri just glanced at them in disappointment.
"Why did you say?" Mery looked at her son sharply. "Mom really didn't expect you to be able to do something this low, Evan. You're cheating on other women, even having kids? Do you think there's a father lower than you, huh?"
The sound of Mery's scream echoing in the place made the steps of Ayun who was about to enter the kitchen come to a halt. He chose to stay behind the wall hearing the anger of the in-laws.
"Why is Mom like this? I know I've done something wrong, but why do you put me down this way?" evan said bitterly and bitterly disappointed.
"Then, do you think your actions are proud? All my life, I don't care this much about you. I've always been proud to have a son like you, but not anymore." Mery shook her head with tears dripping down her face.
"You have tarnished our good name, you can even throw dirt on our faces with this deed you did."
Evan immediately shook his head and rested at the mother's feet, of course making Ayun's heart increasingly sliced.
"Oath to God, Mom. I have absolutely no intention of humiliating Mom and Dad." Evan held both of his mother's legs tightly.
"I'm just a human being who escapes from wrong and sin, Mom. I am guilty of marrying another woman, but I have absolutely no intention of humiliating Mom" Evan said weakly.
"I'm still a proud son of Father and Mother, I still uphold my family's good name wherever I am. I'm fighting for my family's future, but only for one mistake. Is everything I've done meaningless, Mom?"
Evan loosened his head and looked at the mother wistfully, while Mery looked away at her unwillingly to look at her.
"I've been fighting so hard for Mom and Dad, I love and respect Mom and Dad more than anything. But by one mistake, I'm now the lowest and most despicable human being."
Which parent's heart is unharmed if they say their own child is low and despicable, but why doesn't their child understand the wound?
Parents are the most hurt if something happens to their children, even parents will also suffer when someone hurts their children. However, if their own children make mistakes. Will they not be ashamed and disappointed?
"Now tell me, Mom. Is my fault that bad, so I don't have any more pride in front of Mom?"
Mery's tears dripped down her face, with a tightness that seemed to hit her chest.
"We know that if all this time you've been fighting for the future of this family, you work from morning to night to change our economy. But your hard work is not worth what your wife did, Evan. Absolutely nothing can compare," cried Mery with grief.
Mery then brushed off Evan's hand and walked quickly to the kitchen door, where he saw Ayun's whereabouts.
Ayun quickly wiped her tears as the in-laws stood before her, she then gasped in surprise when suddenly her hand was pulled by the in-laws.
"You look at her, you see this wife of yours, Evan!" mery's yelling made Evan get up from the floor.
For a moment they all looked at each other with sadness. Mery's chest went up and down as it held back pain and anger simultaneously.
"You've seen this wife of yours, huh? This woman who has been accompanying and struggling with you, do not you think all this success is the result of your hard work, because it will not be realized without the help and do'a of Ayun!" mery said sharply, and his words succeeded in piercing everyone's heart.
"He was willing to get up earlier than everyone else just to take care of this family, he was even willing to not sleep all night just to wait for you and think about what he had to do in order to help you. Didn't your eyes see all that fighting, huh?" Mery's lips shook as she said it. Likewise with Ayun who was bowed with a cry that could not be held back.
"After what your wife has done, you repay her with treason. Proudly you say you love another woman, even if you say you're married and have children with her. Really, Evan. If you were your wife, you would be dead by now."
"Mom, what did you say?"
Swing immediately held her in-laws hand tightly. He shook his head in disapproval of what the middle-aged woman said.
"Now tell mom, Evan. Would you do something like this to your wife? A wife who has been loyal and devoted to you and your family. He wants to live hard with you, and never complain in the least. Then, should he be juxtaposed with the woman you love?"
The atmosphere was really very sad at this time, even Endri had to wipe his face several times wet from tears.
Evan looked at Ayun with sadness, clearly seeing the pain on his wife's face at this time.
"Sorry, Swing. I beg you to forgive me."
