Trouble Maker
Chapter 56
It took about thirty minutes to get to Marni's house, because the distance from Gita's house to Marni's house was quite far. Arriving there, after parking his car, Novri immediately went into the house and looked for Marni's whereabouts, telling her that Gita had come and wanted to apologize to her, for all Gita had done to her. Marni was surprised to hear it and there was a sense of doubt with what Novri said. Marni was traumatized, because Gita used to do that. Gita apologizes to him and accepts herself as his friend. But, know-how behind it, there is a plan that has been prepared by the Gita, so Marni entered into the Gita trap. Marni has not been able to forget the painful incident. However, Novri tried to convince Marni and said that the situation was much different. Novri can see from the look of Gita's eyes, if Gita really sincerely wants to apologize to Marni. In the end, inevitably Marni was willing to meet Gita who was waiting in the living room and hope what Novri said to her was true. Seeing Marni coming out, Gita immediately stood up, approached her and immediately hugged Marni.
"Is this really sincere in his heart or is it just pretending? As he once did" Marni's inner.
"duh... Marni, don't be prejudiced first, who knows, she really sincerely wants to apologize, every human being can change, including the Gita as well" Marni brushed off her prejudice against the Gita. They sat facing each other and Gita immediately expressed her intention and purpose in coming to Marni's house.
"Mar, I want to apologize to you for what I've done to you, I'm really sorry for what I did first" Gita said in an apology. Marni looks into Gita's eyes and she can see from the look in Gita's eyes, that what she says is really born from her heart and this time there is no lie behind it.
"Git, before you apologize to me, I forgive you" Marni responded.
"Thank you very much well, Mar, at least now my burden has been reduced" Gita was relieved, heard Marni's answer and wanted to forgive her.
"Oh yes, Git, I also want to say my condolences for the death of your father and also your continued mother, I'm sorry, I just couldn't come, I just couldn't come, because I happen to have a teaching schedule, there is no way I can cancel, not feel good about my students, this is just me coming home from teaching" explained Marni. Gita nodded slowly and seemed to understand it.
"So far from now on you live alone with your brother, Hilsa, in a house that big, must feel very quiet" said Marni.
"I'm the same Hilsa was driven out of the house and controlled by my father's brother, because he said I had no right to the house, because I was not the son of Yanto's father and Tina's mother" clearly Gita with a sad face.
"Git, what is said by your father's brother is true, you are not the son of om Yanto and Aunt Tina" Marni confirmed the statement made to Gita.
"You mean, Mar?" Ask Gita who still looks confused. Marnie thought for a moment. Perhaps Gita should know about the secret that Yanto and Tina and Andini have been hiding for years.
"Mar, you are silent! Answer dong!" Gita looks impatient waiting for Marni's answer.
"Patience, brother" Hilsa, sitting next to Gita, tried to calm him down.
"So, gini, Git, your biological parents are Aunt Andini, lose your father anyway, do not know well" Marni opened the secret.
"Where do you know about that? Since when do you know all that? Then why don't you ever tell me anything? Why are you even silencing me?" Gita showered Marni with some questions. Marni gestured for Gita to calm down and she would explain it in detail.
"Honestly, I knew about this a long time ago and I really want to tell you, just Aunt Andini himself asked me and also Haikal, who happened to hear it too, he said, not to tell you this secret, because it will hurt when you know the truth" Marni expressed her reason for keeping the secret for years. Marnie continued her story again. He told Gita everything, as he had heard from Andini, with nothing to cover up. Gita finally finds out, that she is the child of Andini's dark relationship with a foreign man, which she does not recognize at all.
"I mean, I'm an illegitimate child! Not knowing who my real father was, why I had to be born that way" Gita was in complete shock, with the harsh reality she received, which became her life's destiny.
"Git, you're patient and must take this reality even though it feels bitter" Marni tries to calm Gita down.
"I'm also sure that your mother didn't want that to happen, but, what else, she said, this is all destiny and we as humans can do nothing but accept it sincerely and keep living it even though it is heavy" Marni continued.
"Mar, do you know where my mother is now?" Ask Gita.
"If the address of the house I don't know, only I accidentally met with Aunt Andini on the road, he said that he worked in Zona, you just go there, you go, who knows you met your mother" replied Marni.
"Eh.... One more thing, you also said, if you teach, where do you teach?" Ask Gjta who looks curious.
"Oh... That, I just take part in it anyway, teach private tutoring for kids, the lecturer at the campus who recommended me with his acquaintances and Alhamdulilah from there I can set aside to pay tuition as well" explained Marni.
"Gee.... Great you, Marni, I salute you and it is natural that you can be a teacher, you are smart" Gita said. Marnie just smiled. After getting information from Marni about her mother and talking briefly, Gita and Hilsa say goodbye to Marni.
"I walk, Mar, I want to meet mom at the place you said it was, see you" Gita waved her hand from the car she was riding in.
"Mom, I can't wait to meet mom, I've missed seeing mom" said Gita.
"I know, sister, how Gita's feeling about meeting her sister's birth mother, after not meeting for years" Hilsa seemed to be able to feel what Gita felt. Gita smiled as if.
