The Three Chosen
247. The Bad Mother
After visiting the Jaya family, Iyaz and Izar also intend to visit the Boril family. But unfortunately the spirit of Boril refused when the twins asked him to drive to his home. Of course it confused Iyaz and Izar.
“ Why don't you want Us to visit your family..?” ask Iyaz.
“ Gapapa, no need aja..,” said the spirit of Boril reluctant.
“ Didn't you say you had a Son..?” ask Izar.
“ Yes...,” sahut spirit Boril.
“ Do you not like him, what if he nyariin You..?” tanya Izar did not understand.
“ My son won't come after me because..” Boril's spirit speech is cut off.
“ Because of what..?” tanya Iyaz curious.
“ Because My Wife has already dapetin a new Father for my Son..,” said the spirit of Boril sad.
Iyaz and Izzar were shocked and stared at each other in disbelief. They did not expect that Boril's life was not as simple as it seemed.
“ Forgive Us...,” says Izar.
“ Gapapa, not your fault..,” said the spirit of Boril while smiling wryly.
“ If your relationship with your wife is not good, but you will have children. At least tell your child so that he has good memories of you and not bad memories as his mother always said.
Izar nodded and followed in Ayaz's footsteps. Boril's spirit looks pecked in his place as if he was thinking for a moment. Then Boril's spirit seemed to dart quickly towards the twins and say something surprising.
“ Well. I want my Son to know if I never fail to provide for him.” said the spirit of Boril suddenly.
Iyaz and Izar stared at each other then nodded. And now both are on their way to Boril's house.
They arrived at a simple house. When they got there they saw an eight-year-old boy crying on the porch.
“ He is my Son, his name is Obi..” Boril said as he stared fondly at Obi.
“ Why he's so rich outside. The door of the house is locked, maybe your wife is again not at home.” said Izar.
“ After I die I just know that Obi is often left behind by his mother in a state of hunger and cold outside the house rich gini.
Hearing Boril's words made Iyaz and Izar surprised, then both of them rushed to Obi with a little snack that they always carry in the car.
“ Assalamualaikum..,” saya Iyaz and lzar together.
“ Wa aleikumsalam..,” Obi said while removing her tears.
Obi looked at the two men in front of him with a puzzled look.
“ Om who, who wants to find here..?” ask Obi.
“ Recognize, I'm Izar and this is Iyaz. We are old friends of Your Father..,” sahut Izar friendly.
“ Father, Om mean My Father..?” ask Obi innocent to make Iyaz and Izar look at the spirit of Boril.
“ He calls me Father...,” said the spirit of Boril with a smile.
“ Oh Yes. I mean Om, We are friends of Your Father Mr. Boril..,” said Izar rectified his speech.
“ But you are no longer at home Om, it has been a long time Mr. ga home..,” said Obi sad.
“ Keep Obi why cry outside rich gini, alone again.?” tanya Iyaz was impatient.
“ I can't go inside the house Om. Mom left, the house was locked, but I was tired of sleeping inside but couldn't get in. I'm also hungry because I haven't eaten.” said Obi with a sad mimic.
Hearing Obi's words upset Boril's spirit and kicked the table nearby until the table was destroyed. Of course, it surprised everyone, especially Obi who did not understand why the wooden table was suddenly destroyed for no reason.
“ Om got this, Obi ate this first yes..” said Iyaz while giving a plastic bag containing snacks.
Obi stared doubtfully at Iyaz, Izar and the plastic bag. Knowing that the boy was afraid of being poisoned, Iyaz and Izar took food from the bag and ate it with great gusto.
bread to Obi.
“ Yes Om...,” Obi said while taking the bread Izar thrusts and start eating it.
Iyaz and Izar sat down and looked at Obi who was looking voraciously chewing bread. Izar thrust a bottle filled with water
he was immediately greeted by Obi. After finishing the bread and water, Obi looked better.
“ So where does your mom work..?” ask Iyaz.
“ Mom doesn't work Om, I just play with her friends..,” says Obi.
“ Main...?” tanya Iyaz did not understand.
“ Yes Om. Mom just returned home if Maghrib...,” Obi said again.
Iyaz and Izar did not ask again because they did not want to hurt Obi. Shortly thereafter Boril's wife arrived. The young woman in fashionable style seemed surprised when she saw two handsome men sitting on the porch with their children.
Obi also seemed ordinary when he saw the presence of the woman. Iyaz and Izar are a little confused to see the interaction of Obi and her mother.
“ This is who Obi...?” ask Obi's mother, Lita.
“ This is Mr. Where is the key Mom, I want to go inside.”, Obi said as she raised her hand towards Lita.
Lita handed over the key she brought to Obi and sat down before Iyaz and Izar. Seeing how Lita dresses makes Iyaz uncomfortable. Then Iyaz stood up and chose to stay away from Lita and Izar. Lita only glanced at Iyaz and then asked Izar.
“ So who are you and what are you doing here..?” ask Lita full of search.
“ We are friends of Mr. Boril. We are here to bring sad news...,” Izar said.
“ What grief news...?” ask Lita.
“ Mr. Boril is dead. His body is difficult to evacuate but we are working on..,” said Izar.
The shocking reaction was shown by Lita. No suffering or crying. His face looked flat and it made Izar
bewildered. But Obi's screams startled Iyaz and Izar to make both of them rush into the house.
“ What is Obi...?” ask Iyaz and Izar together.
“ Om says my Father died, Om lied right..?” ask Obi while crying.
Iyaz hugged Obi's body tightly and held him. Obi hugged Iyaz back and hid his cries on the shoulders of Iyaz. While Boril's spirit appears to be staring at a sad Obi.
“ You saw. Only Obi wept for my departure.” said the spirit of Boril.
“ I don't have anyone else Om. If my father leaves, who am I.?” obi groaned in between her tears.
Obi's words made Lita flinched and embarrassed. He could not hide the red hue on his face as Iyaz and Izar stared at him.
“ Don't talk rich like that Obi. Later in the world, these Mothers will not take care of you. Though this Mother is your biological mother..” said Lita wrong behavior.
It turned out that Obi's screams were heard by the neighbors who then came to the house. When hearing Lita's words made the neighbors upset and latai Lita with a cornered sentence.
“ But you never take care of Obi kan Lit..,” quipped one of the neighbors.
“ Not that Obi is always taking care of herself huh. Eat, cook for yourself. Clothes also wash themselves, if sick also find their own medicine. Similar rich dangdut song...,” sahut other neighbors while sneering.
“ Understand the Mothers, Lita is busy..,” said a neighbor.
“ Yes, busy nyari pleasures with other men out there..,” said a neighbor while staring annoyed at Lita.
Lita's face was red with embarrassment. He was silent without being able to answer. While in the corner there appears the spirit of Boril staring disappointed towards Lita.
