My best friend Maduku
Chapter Seventy Eight.

Today is Willy's mother's fifty-fifth birthday. All the families gathered at one of the restaurants in the city.

Shinta and Deni mas and their children were also present. Everyone seems very happy.

Weni who came with her friend Linda also entered the same restaurant.

"Tumben Lu wants to be invited to eat outside, usually does not want to" Linda said

"I'm usually not allowed out if I'm not with my aunt. I don't know why my mom and aunt are so protective of me. All banned. Since my graduation, I have been given a little freedom. But it didn't last long either, because my mom and dad wanted me to work at my birthplace. It can't be in this city" Weni said

"Gue was also astonished, it seems like your family should not be able to get along and get to know the outside world. Like there's a fear of it"

"Gue also thought so. like something was hidden"

"Wen.. If I'm not wrong, it's your bokap"

"Where." asked Weni.

"That's another gathering with one family. That's the bokap Lu family huh.. "

"That's my bokap. I never knew or knew my family. What is all his family yes. "murm weni.

"Samperin just there... "

"But why is my heart beating like this Lin. I got nervous... I'm so afraid Lin, I'm samperin is not yes"

"Lu should also be familiar with Lu's bokap family.why are you afraid"

"Gue go there first. You just wait here.. "Chap Weni and stand near her Papa's table.

"Good night Pa. Papa kok is here, he said papa again have business affairs. "said Weni nervously.

All the Willy family looked at Weni intensely. No one spoke, all shocked to hear Weni calling papa with papa Erwin. Especially Elly's mom

"You're Willy, Melatican's ex-husband" Weni said again.

"You. why are you here. And why call my papa papa papa"

"Weni. papa wants to talk. "said Papa stood up and wanted to take Weni away.

Step dad stopped mom. He looked at Papa with a red face holding back anger.

"What does this all mean Pa. try to explain here and now you want to hear "

"Ma. I can explain later at home. embarrassed to be here "

"Why should I be ashamed. What papa did and what papa wants to explain, why can't it here" said Mama in a voice that began to rise

"Father.what does all this mean. Why would Willy say if papa was his papa" Weni asked.

"Papa will explain later, now papa asks you to come home. Papa and mama have often lost, you can't leave the house without a meeting"

"Why.what because papa wants to hide this from me. Papa has another family... "

Shinta immediately stood up and hugged her mother's arm.

"Ma. don't yell here. Mama saw all the eyes of the restaurant visitors looking towards us. Papa has to explain all this. We're waiting for papa at home. Ma let's go home"

"I want you to explain right now" cried Elly's mom again.

"Ma. Brother Shinta is right, mama don't embarrass yourself. Later if there are acquaintances who see can be embarrassed" said Willy

"Son jal*ng, tell me who you are" said Mama still yelling

"I'm Papa Erwin's son. I'm not jal*ng's son, you should take care of your mouth.You should be able to keep your words, you're old"

Plaque....mama Willy slapped Weni's cheek hard.

'If you are not a child v*ng means your mother must be a woman jal*ng, l*nte,pel*cur "

"Ma. already. Mama can't say that, but she's my son too"

"Aapa.so you now admit that this woman is your son.So all this time you have been lying and betraying me" said Mama while holding her chest.

Mama Elly still continued to hold her chest and finally fainted. Luckily, Elly's mom was held by Shinta so she didn't fall.

"Papa outrageous.Papa should explain this to me and Willy" Shinta said in tears.

"For so long I thought I was a bad guy for wishing my wife, it turns out that you're better*n again, you've been hiding this all along from us. It's a good thing I still respect you as my father, otherwise I'd have battered you" Willy said emotionally

"The evil father has been lying to me all this time" Weni said running out of the restaurant. Linda who heard and witnessed it all chased after the running Weni.

Papa Erwin did not pursue Weni because he had to carry Elly's mother and would take her to a nearby hospital.

"I think only papa is a good enough man in this family. Me, and Willy equally betrayed our wife. Papa was worse than both of us. He has had a daughter and hid this from his mother for years."

Deni then took his son's hand, taking him away from the restaurant. Willy and Shinta and Papa take mom to the hospital. Deni had to go home first to lock the entire house tightly, only to catch up with the hospital.

Weni was crying in Linda's arms. They were already in the taxi.

"Linda. I don't think that papa I have another family. But what I could not accept, it turns out my mother who became the third person in the household papa. I'm ashamed of Lin. I don't actually blame the woman if she gets angry and slaps me. But as a child I couldn't accept my mother being insulted. I now understand why my mom wouldn't let me out without my aunt. And why papa and mama rarely perform together. Mama's quick to prevent me from approaching married men, surely all this time mama felt discomfort as a mistress. Why can they hide all this time" Weni said with a sob

"You can't judge both your parents. I also never agreed on the name of infidelity, although the name of the third person remains wrong.But you as a child must hear the reason why your mother did this"

"I'm ashamed, whatever the reason my mother was wrong, for taking what was not hers. And my mama is the destroyer of someone's household. I don't know what to do right now. I can stay at your house for a while. I can't accept any explanation from my aunt or my mama. They've been lying and fooling me all this time"

Linda carried Weni's head leaning against her shoulder and let Weni cry.

"what would a friend of mine say if he knew I was the son of a mistress. Melati must know all this. He was so shocked to see Papa then. And that means papa asked Melati to speak so she could hide this truth. Means me and Willy are brothers. And Nabila also poked me. Rangga must have known this reality as well. What they think of me.. I'm shy.. "
