the bus continued to run non-stop, towards the destination city that Anna and her mother would live in, Anna looked at the window, looking at the very crowded and bright city.
'i must be able to forget all the things that happened in the village, I must restart my life with my son'then Anna rubbed her stomach and smiled.
when Anna was rubbing her stomach, the mother woke up and saw this, then smiled bitterly, and imagined the bitter thing she had experienced long ago.
*flashback 22thn ago*
"Elis, I really love you, I want to spend the rest of my time with you"it looks like a man who is quite old is seducing a young and beautiful girl who turns out that girl is Elis.
"but we can't make this forbidden relationship, I don't want to be a prostitute" Elis then brushed off Albert's hand, the married man even had children.
Albert felt heartbroken, because somehow he really loved Elis, even though he was aware that he had a wife and even children.
but Albert continued to make sweet words and continued to seduce Elis.
Elis, who at that time was a foolish girl, finally gave something most valuable to him to Albert, because he could not lie to his heart, Elis also really loved Albert.
so when Elis and Albert had their forbidden relationship for 2 months, Elis was declared pregnant, and it made him very surprised, Albert who knew it did not want to be held responsible, he said,in the end, he left Elis with his son Anna.
Elis was so devastated, but even so he never thought and blamed the child in his stomach, he still took care and educated him, but the life was as sweet as it was,when Elis was stroking the stomach that had been protruding in the yard of his house while looking at his birth place that was pitch black because it was night and the light description was very minimal,suddenly appeared a crowd of citizens carrying torches filled with fierce fire, and said that Elis was a prostitute who bore the child of a striped man.
Anna was so shocked and frightened, but what made her even more surprised was, it turns out that the rumors that spread the story was her own ex-lover, the father of the child she was carrying was Albert.
Elis didn't know what to do, he was so scared to say a word.
"the whore's exorcist from this village, drive away"he heard the cry of the citizens who were holding fire torches, and were about to throw them at Elis' house,elis was so frightened that he decided to leave his hometown and start his life again.
"well mother, I'm going to leave this village, please forgive me"Anna knelt down and left her home without any money.
Albert who heard that, immediately propocating the citizens, to kill him alive, because in fact Albert was only afraid that the secret of his forbidden relationship with Elis would be revealed.
"don't let the prostitute run away we just burn her alive" then came the call of the citizens and immediately chased after Anna while carrying a fierce fire torch.
Elis, who found it, ran fast, entered the dark forest, and then continued to run away from the citizens, he thought after he entered the forest,residents will stop chasing him but instead the residents are increasingly rebellious and continue to call his name as a prostitute.
but when he was thinking about going through the river or not, he looked back and the people were still chasing him, he took a very dangerous risk, too,he finally made a strong determination and began to step through the extremely swift river current.
when he reached the land across the river, he was so happy, but the pleasure was lost after he looked back, the citizens began to walk through the river, he stopped and then looked pusher at Albert,he was desperate, and wanted to give himself up to the people, but God still loved Elis, one of the residents slipped and carried away by the river, but God still loved Elis,this even makes many residents get carried away by the river flow and disappear into the water.
Elis, who realized that the opportunity for his life was still long, finally decided to keep running, until then he fainted from feeling tremendous pain in his stomach.
and when Anna woke up it was morning, and she woke up in a small hut.
not yet thinking where she was, and who had saved her, Elis immediately grabbed her stomach and found her belly no longer big, when Elis was about to cry,suddenly there was a cry of a baby girl from the direction of the bathroom, and out came an old grandmother with a baby who turned out to be her child, who was the baby,at once the old grandmother was the one who had saved her life with her son.
the old grandmother then immediately gave the baby to Elis's lap.
Elis was so happy and wept and said a big thank you to God and the grandmother.
she then looked at her son and named the beautiful baby Anna.
*flashback off*
without feeling Elis suddenly let out a drop of water from his eyes, and his eyes began to see glass, in his heart he thought, is this possible karma for him?because he was once a prostitute who made a forbidden relationship with a married man.
Anna, who realized that, immediately hugged and kissed the mother on the cheek, said, "mother, let's start a new life in this city"Anna then smiled sweetly and tightened her embrace on the mother.
Elis then kissed Anna's head while nodding and smiling.
"after your child is born, you should be able to take good care of him, not until your upbringing is wrong" Elis then advises Anna so that she can be a good mother for her children.
"yes Ma'am, Anna will be a great mom like a mother who always takes care of Anna from childhood to adulthood"Anna continued to hug her mother and then fell asleep in the arms of the mother.
Elis, who saw her son fall asleep, was so happy but sad, on the one hand, she was happy to see the child she raised and cared for as a beautiful and great girl,but on the other hand Elis was so sad because his son had to feel the consequences he had done in the past.
before Elis fell asleep he kissed Anna's eel and said"forgive mother na"then she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
