It had been eleven in the evening, but Damar had not been able to close his eyes. He has not received an answer from Ms. Dita. His teacher still hangs him when Damar has tried to convince him that he will try to do anything to marry him.
"What an age difference is really fatal, until Bu Dita really hesitates," Danar complained. Tired of waiting for a reply to a message, Damar came out of his room, of course, still carrying his butututu HP.
"You haven't slept, Mar?" Ask her mother who just finished tidying up the neighbor's laundry.
"Not sleepy yet, Bun." replied Damar.
"Tomorrow you've passed the exam. Learn the right way, Mar. You're ashamed that you don't graduate anymore. Moreover, there is Nanda who this year also graduated like you."
"Yes Bun, Damar will try. Damar has promised, same Mother and Miss Dita also "
After her son mentioned her teacher's name, Anis took a breath. Looks like his son is really serious about his teacher.
"Why does he have to, Mar?" ask Ms. Anis.
"What's the matter, Bun? Is something wrong? Ms. Dita is a good woman, she is also a Saliha girl. InshaAllah can be a good wife." replied Damar, occasionally glancing at his cellphone screen, hoping that after dozens of messages he sent there was a reply. But Damar had to suppress disappointment because it seemed that Bu Dita would not answer because all the messages were only read.
"How many?"
"About thirty or thirty-one, Bun"
"Eleven years with you."
"Then?"
"Mar, is there nothing else.
"Who's Bun?"
"For example, Rana."
"Rana? What does this mother say? Why even talk about Rana,"
"Mar, you want Rana to be the mother's ghost later."
Damar wanted to laugh, but he did not see the look on his mother's expectant face. That's why he just breathed. He did not understand, from yesterday-yesterday it was always Rana who was associated. Is it because she's the woman that's around Damar's life right now? She and Rana are just friends. Being close because Rana is the daughter of her mother's best friend and often interacts with her family members.
"How, Mar?" ask her mother again. "You know, Rana. Our family is also close. So there's no need to get to know each other anymore."
"But Mar, your ages are so different."
"No harm, Bun. There is no rule that marriage should be of the same age."
"You didn't forget your father, did you, Mar? Married mothers and fathers also have different ages. Mother is ten years older than your father, but what happened? Your father's not ready to go to the household. He is still busy with himself. Finally, the mother had to fight alone. He just gave the child without taking responsibility. Only the pain that Mother gets and mother does not want it all to happen to your household later."
"You mean Mother, Damar will imitate you?"
"It's not .. It's not so, Mar. Mommy is sure that the children of Mother are good children. You won't be like your father, but ...." Ms. Anis cut her son back. He was actually only worried if one day Bu Dita could no longer afford if his son hitchhiked and divorced him as he did to Damar's father.
"But what, Bun? Mother has already led there. The age of Damar and Bu Dita eleven years apart, Mother thought Damar would not be responsible later?"
"Mar, you just don't want you to be as lucky as your father. That's all "
"The room is Damar, Bun. Although in Damar's body there is father's blood, but Damar will not imitate the evil that father did in the past. Damar felt great and grew up without the affection of a father. Damar doesn't want Damar's kids to feel the same way as Damar."
"But you haven't proven to Mother that you can be a responsible man! The truth is you're not like your father!" jakt Bu Anis.
Damar was silent, and so was his mother. It hurt so much for the young man when his father's ugliness was equated with his. It is not so and it never will be.
"Mother just," said her mother cut off. "Mar, marrying a woman whose age is far different will give a lot of opportunities for incompatibility. Marriage is not a day or two. Mother does not want you the same as mother, her marriage is not lasting "
"Damar told me Damar wouldn't be like me!" reply Damar. "Mother has been traumatized by Dad, but don't equate everyone with you. If the father breng---, it does not mean that his children are also breng---!"
"But all this time you showed the same attitude as your father. You are never responsible for your life. Still at his own heart. The proof, you twice did not graduate school and do not know how many times you have to go to school because of the problems you create.
You don't care about this family either. You do not know how tired Mother, how your sisters. You are the first boy.
With your attitude that is still as arbitrary as it is, how can Mother be sure you can be a responsible man? It's not all instant, Mar. Mother does not want if you are reckless, then one day you regret. Divorced by your teacher. Mother must have been destroyed once!"
"darkliris, Bun. Don't think like that. Damar can not be as Mother said, but Damar wants to be a man who is responsible as well" said Damar. "Also if the mother thinks Damar will not be a responsible man, why should also expect Damar with Rana, it will be the same. Being irresponsible with anyone would be the same!"
"why? Because Rana has everything. You don't have to bother because Rana's parents have everything ready. You just need to be the husband that's there for Rana. Without thinking about the responsibilities of being the head of the family. That's it !"
"What's? Damar really did not expect Mommy to think that low on Damar." Out of annoyance, Damar finally left the house. He did not care even though his mother had called many times.
Damar's old motor continued to accelerate, splitting the night ever more late. He was really disappointed by the assessment even though Damar did not deny that his current assessment of his mother was correct, which was previously true, but do not have to judge it will continue like that to expect his son to be the husband of an established woman who does not need to work. Is it that low? Totally useless. His pride as a man was instantly shattered with his mother's words. He's really angry!
