He's Not The Best

“Win, Mr. ..!” basri's speech was interrupted by Winsi's rebuttal.

“Already, Sir! I don't want to be late, I'm sick, he wants me to go home.”

“Why? Your mother is sick?” Basri looks worried.

“Yes. Ibuk is still pregnant, but, it's not your business anymore.”

“Oh, she's pregnant huh? It must be because of that guy, right?”

“Who are you referring to? Daddy's? Yes yes, lah. Kan Dad's husband Ibuk now, not Mr!”

“Oh means --“

“Already, Sir! Already, later I am late or I just go down now, the cost has been paid the same Mas Adi?”

Basri returned to drive his car at high speed.

“What is your relationship with that man? Are you married just like your mother. Why don't you say Father, right, you have to be your guardian?” Back Basri spoke as he was driving with his concentration fixed straight forward.

“If I want to marry, why say the same Father? Free if you still consider me an illegitimate child! I'm not Father's son, am I? So, why do you want to be the guardian of everything?”

Hearing his remarks, Basri did not speak and continued to drive his car in silence until finally arriving in front of the airport, while the time has shown the time of departure of the plane to Jakarta will be done soon.

Without looking at his father again, Winsi immediately opened the car door and and went down quickly, as if reluctant to return to interact with Basri. He ran to the department and checked in.

While on the plane, Winsi was still thinking about the coincidence that happened to her today, how could her father be in the same place?

He intends to continue his life and future in that place. Continuing college and having a business that can sustain his own life. Thus he could be independent and leave all his past behind in different places. So what if they meet often because they are in the same city? Winston really can't believe it.

The sadness of remembering the past about the father and all the deeds of the man, still enveloped his heart. Although, it's been six years. With great difficulty he tried to forget it, by doing all the activities and learning, and filled his days with busyness.

However, such destiny is not satisfied with reuniting them, testing the child who has just grown up with all its shortcomings and advantages. Maybe God will not stop to test because he still wants to see the strength of his heart.

Winsi was able to judge, when he saw a man whose physique was somewhat changed, Basri looked thinner and older. There is a sense of pity from the side of humanity but, if the matter of his attitude is still hard and rough. The girl could not imagine if she was still with him.

‘Yes, Allah ... I'll live in the same city as you, I don't want to see him again, is that possible? But, I want to continue my efforts and lectures here, in my own land’ Inner Winsi pleads, with tears in her eyes.

Sadness was evident in his face until some of the passengers around noticed but, he did not care because the water that melted on his cheeks could not be stopped.

After a while, he began to be able to cope with the sadness and his tears had already stopped flowing.

The girl began to think clearly that, all her efforts today by finding the land of Runa that would be hers, then, she would not back down no matter what obstacles would be faced in the future.

He was indeed determined to live his life there because in that place there was no one who knew how his past was. There he can live life, be himself and will not think about the lives of others, let alone think of getting married. No. gabe. He would not do that one thing because he thought that, no one would understand him.

He just really needs to build an effort to continue and survive, that's all. His desire was simple, not wanting to trouble others including Arkan—his father.

For Winsi Arkan is already too good, by paying for his school for six years, taking care of his mother lovingly, that is enough and he is very grateful.

He did not want to trouble the man as a manifestation of his sincere love as a child. Is not filial duty to parents obligatory? Arkan and Runa were his parents at this time.

Unlike Arkan, Winsi will try to repay the man's kindness with whatever he can including not burdening him again with tuition fees.

Arkan is the first man he sincerely loves as a father, it is that man who can make him distract from the wounds caused by Basri. From him, Winsi could feel the love of a real father.

Winsi never thought at all about expecting Erlan's affection or liking the man as Waila said. Not at all.

The woman thought that if she liked Erlan, she would betray Arkan.

‘Dad can get a better daughter-in-law than myself to be made a wife or a woman worthy of being loved by Erlan. I'm just a buluk boy who's been stained and has nothing to be proud of Dad's inner Winsi while smiling to himself.

Moreover, Erlan knew how bad the past went through. So, how could the man possibly like a person like him who was filled with flaws? No don't you?

Arriving in Jakarta, Winsi went straight to the hospital where his mother and Badri were treated, he already knew Badri's ward so he could go to his mother's nursery next to his.

“Wiwin ...” said Runa as soon as the girl walked in and stood in front of the door.

“Why is Mom sick all the time?” winsi said as she walked closer to the side of the bed and sat there.

In the room was empty only his mother who rolled alone, there was no Arkan or anyone because his adoptive father had just come out and was now in Badri's room, the man did not know that Winsi had come to accompany his wife.

While outside the twilight has begun to lead to giving a sign that the hospital patient's sleepy time is also running out. Some of the people who visited their sick relatives had already left the patient's room. Hospital wards that are usually crowded filled with people who look, have now begun to be quiet because usually there is only one who is assigned to wait and accompany the patients.

“Nak, if only it could refuse the test and also the disease then it would be rejected by man .. but, what happened to it, right, it could not be denied if indeed God had willed?” runa said as she sat down, then, leaning on the top of the bed.

“Makanya, I also have to think about myself .. if you want to take care of sick people yes, must be healthy! Now try, if mom's sick who wants to take care of Grandpa? If you want to care for the sick, you have to be healthy! Moreover, mothers are also pregnant, do not need to take care of their grandparents every day, in the hospital where people are sick, many diseases, Bu.”

“Iya ... Yes, now the same story Mom, how are you there? Do you have a boarding place?”

It seems like Runa is trying to divert the conversation because she does not want to continue to be blamed by her son because he is a chatty person. Winsi was only chatty on her while on people she was more silent.

‘Do I need to talk to Mom now if I meet my dad?’ batin Winsi while looking at her mother fixed and grabbed her hand and then grasped and massaged slowly in the palm of the woman's hand.

“Yes, I already have a home?” winsi said while smiling proudly at Runa.

“Home? Whose home?” Runa asked who was curious.

“Eh, not home but .. ground.”

“Whose land?”

“Our Land Ma'am. Legacy of Grandpa.”

“Badri grandfather?”
