“ a grudge that becomes regret “
At
that moment the sky was visible cloudy, the trees were visible rocked by a very
strong wind. Eka and Diana wrapped in sadness covered with the loss of the
father figure. But they continue to live and continue this life, even without a
father by his side.
The day changed, and the next
morning it was time for Eka to fulfill the mandate given by her dead father.
She had to feed her younger sister who, since childhood, had settled with her
grandmother.
Eka : “I will go.“
Diana : “what do you mean ,
leave us here ..?”
Grandmother : “Diana never mind ..
your brother went not to leave Diana and grandmother, but went to study (Lecture). Diana here with
grandma, accompany grandma.”
Eka : “Grandma, it's
so hard for me to leave Diana here (cry)."
Grandmother : “grandma
understands Eka, it's all you have to do for your sister's future too, remember your father's
message, you are given a very big responsibility."
Eka : "yes

grandmother Pray for me, so that I can be a pride for grandma and Diana
(kissing hands)."
Diana : "sister,

to leave you, you do not have to worry, every semester I'll go home to meet you
guys."
Diana : "but Diana
did not want you to go, just yesterday the father leaving us., you also want to
go now?" (crying)
Grandmother :
"Diana

Eka : "Diana,

when
he arrived in Jakarta, Eka lectured with odd jobs doing the tasks given his
friends. Eka kost with his college friend Ria and Rino. Ria is a college friend
who happens to be sharing room with Eka. While Rino is a friend of his boarding
room located opposite the road from the boarding room of the princess.
Eka : "heeh, have you gone back ?”
Rino :
"It's been over. You finished shopping ?"
Eka : "yeah, make my family, it's likely
to run out UAS later I want to go back"

door).
Ria : "uhh you maria, want to take orders

Maria :

Ria :
"Yes, maybe. come in."
Maria :
"Eka, what about my job, is it done?"
Eka :
"already (give the sheet of paper) sorry late, because I yesterday again a
lot of work."
Maria : "yes no problem,

door, But Eka was momentarily silent and shocked, and ... She immediately
closed the door again.
Maria : "why

silent and took a deep breath).”
Maria : "why
are you so pale as suddenly as the devil? (Eka kept silent) hmm asked even

Eka : "eh maria if

Then
Ria and Maria came out to open the door, and there was a mother standing there.
Maria : "mother looking
for who ?"
Mother : "Eka there? I am
his mother .can I meet him ?"
Maria : "but .. Sorry my
mom hurriedly, Ria I'm back yes, there is someone want to meet eka.!
Then
Eka opened the door.
Eka :
"BETTER YOU GO!"
Mother :
"Eka how are you darling, are you okay ?"
Ria : "mom,

Eka : "no,
no need to go in. You better lift your feet from here "
Ria : “eka, why are
you cruel to your own mother? Let's mother please come in (draw my mother's
hand)."
Eka : "I say no yes no,

Ria : "Eka!
You why? She's your own mother, it's not proper that you treat her that rude
(wake her mother)."
Mother : "It's okay, it's true Eka mother does not deserve
to get in (while standing up), mother here just to apologize to you, so please
let Mom explain everything."
Eka : "alaaahh nonsense. And you, why you support him, you do not know
anything Gubraak (closing the door.)"
Mother : "Eka until when, punish mom like this? mother
please, forgive mother eka.”
Suddenly
Rino came to pick up his order. but he met is not Eka but his mother and Ria.
Rino :
"Who is Ria? Eka where ?"
Ria :
"she's her mother Eka Rino, just Eka does not want to see her mother."
Rino : "why is that?
(His mom suddenly fainted and Rino and Ria immediately took him to kostan Rino)."
Arriving
at the boarding Rino, they tried to resuscitate his mother Eka so that
eventually he was aware.
Rino :
"mother already aware? mother drink first (giving the drink) "
Mother :
"(drink) thank you son, where am I?"
Rino : "mother is on my
boarding house, I am Rino's, friend Eka and Ria"
Mother :
"(pensive) all it is wrong my son .. Once Eka still junior high school and
his sister is still very small, our family experienced economic difficulties,
while Eka father himself is an unemployed. I was so frustrated that in the end
I left home and left them all, and I married another rich man, named Anton.
Because I think life with him will be better, but it turns out Anton who is now
a lot of debt, I only found out after all of our time together, after which I
immediately leave him, and immediately find the existence of my children, but
it turns out Anton desperate, so finally he had the heart to kill Eka father."
Rino : "So the father of
Eka was killed by the mother's husband ? “
Mother : "yes son, I'm
really sorry, yesterday I went to pekanbaru to see his mother-in-law and her
sisters Eka I'm sorry and told you all."
Ria :
"so Eka knows that the husband of the mother who killed her father Eka?
And now where's the mothers husband ?"
Mother : "Eka
already knows everything, that's why Eka hates me so much, my husband is in
prison."
Ria : "so what's the
mother's plan now ?"
Mother : "I just want to
apologize to Eka, I really want to be like again I regret, I miss my children."
Rino :
"Patient mother well, we understand why, we will help mother, is not it
Ria?"
Ria : "yes you do not
have to worry, actually, where is the mother living??"
mother: "I have no place live."
Rino : "okey,
for a while mom stay here first, tomorrow I will find kost for mother."
Mother : "thanks a lot
Rino"
Mother was living with Rino just overnight,
to the next day the mother lived in his new kost. while on campus, all of Eka's
friends are busy looking for Eka. In search everywhere but did not meet as
well. then Rosma and Rita arrived at the back of the campus, and it turns out
Eka was there, she was sitting alone, confused, and sadly pensive.
Rosma : "uh, where are
you? I'm looking for"
Rosma :
"uh, where are you? I'm looking for"
Rita :
"yeah, not visible from morning, it turns out to be here, What's wrong
with you ? " (while Eka did not answer, she remained silent)
Rosma :
"what's wrong with you again?”
Rit :
"yes Eka, you why? Why are you
silent, do not make us even more confused" (but Eka keeps silent, she
rushes away, but Rosma holds her hand).
Eka :
"(look) give me my own time (let go and went straight away)"
Rita : "But where are
you going ?"
Eka :
"return (yell and run)" (while Eka is trying chase, but rita tries to
hold her back).”
Rosma : "Never let her
alone, she needs time,maybe, not yet the moment we knowwhat really
happened" (Rosma nodded)
Arriving at the boarding house he was surprised
to see three people already standing in front of the door of his room, which is
none other than Eka's mother, Ria and Rino. But Eka ignores their arrival, Eka
immediately barges in.
Rino :
"wait for Eka (holding Eka's hand)"
Ria : "Permit your
mother to talk, open your heart !!!"
Mother :
"Eka, mother just want to apologize, that's it, nothing more., allow
mother to explain all her, give mom a chance to make up for the sins mother
(holding Eka's shoulder)."
Eka : "do not touch me
!!! (push mum to fall)"
Rin :
"Why are you so? she is your mother, realize dong! open your heart, give
him a chance, forgive him! "
Ria :
"Eka is not right you behave like that with your mother, even if she is
your mother"
Eka :
"why you guys are always blame me ..? You guys are easy talking like this,
because you do not feel what I rasain, you do not know anything."
Ria :
"We do not feel what you feel, but we know and understand your feelings
and your mother, I know you miss your mother very much, but after your mother
is in front of you, you are in vain?”
Rino : "why Eka,
open your heart a bit for your mother's forgiveness, this time she's really
sorry, she has realized her mistake, so that he prostrate at your feet, where
your conscience? rebellious child?"
Mother :
"Eka, even if the mother should prostrate on your feet, the mother will do
the important you want to forgive mother, even mother willing to die, but the
mother just want to say sorry from you before mother dies."
Eka :
"Even if you prostrate on my feet, I will never forgive you, do you think
with the word sorry can change everything? Can you make father wake up
again?"
Ria :
"Eka, you are really outrageous, Allah alone who is all-willing to forgive
his repentant servant, you? The only human can not forgive your own biological
mother, really cruel you eka "
Eka :
"ENOUGH, you guys do not know anything, always, I'm in the wrong, all my
fault“
Rino : "come on mom. we
go away, it's no use talking with rock."
Eka : "go all out,
GO!"
After
that, Eka was always haunted by guilt, day after night after night, she went
through with anxiety and fear, every night she always had nightmares, until
sometime she dreamed that her mother was gone, when Eka woke up and immediately
opened the door of his room ran to his mother's boarding house, but it is
unfortunate that he met only empty space, after Eka to and fro looking for his
mother finally Eka get information that his mother was lying in the hospital,
Eka immediately rushed to the hospital, on arrival at the hospital Eka shocked
to see the state her mother.
Eka :
"Mother wake up, I'm sorry, sorry I'm mother, I beg you mother wake up,
I'm sorry mom, mother hear my voice mother ? I'm beside mother, I am here for mother"
(then Eka's mother awakens, by saying his last sentence).
Mother :
"Eka, sorry mother, mother dear you."
Eka : "no, I'm sorry,
mother wake mother, mom"
After
her mother breathed her last breath, grandmother and Diana arrived at her
mother's room. Diana was so angry with Eka.
Diana : "mom's why? Mother
is fine right?"
Diana :
"mother why? Please answer, do not be silent, ANSWER"
Grandmother :
"Diana be patient do not emotion first"
Diana :
"but grandma's mother, mother did not wake up from earlier"
Eka :
"I'm sorry Diana, mother already gone forever"
Diana : "are you kidding
right? You are not serious right? Mother not die"
Diana :
"it's all because of you, mother goes away because of you, now you are
satisfied to see mother die? SATISFIED?"
Grandmother : "Diana is already, this is all the
will of God, better, we take care of mother's corpse.
Mother was buried beside the grave of Eka
father, Eka was so shocked to accept all the facts, but Eka was lucky because
at least he had given his mother's forgiveness before the mother really went
forever. At the funeral, when everything is back, Rosma comes to Eka.
Rosma : "(hold on
the shoulder) Eka, let her happy there, you do not have to worry I will always
be there for you, let's go home. ) "
After
that they left the grave of his father and mother.
