I woke up seeing my mother beside me.
She still beautiful even though just wake up from a deep slumber.
It felt like yesterday's event are like a dream.
Woking up beside my mother also like a dream!!!... hehehe...so happy
"Good morning, Mommy". Excitedly I greeted my mother.
"Hmm..".She look at me expresionlessly.
She really a woman with few words.
After that, my mother immediately return to her room back.
At age 4 years old, its really convinient since i have been giving a freedom to roaming around the mansion.
Thus I would always visit my mother at her place.
When i visit her, she does not chased me away nor welcoming me. But during my visit, she always prepare my favourite pastry ready for me.
Its enough for me to know that she welcoming me. She just do not know how to express her feeling well.
Now, lets get ready to visit her today.
After getting ready, as usual i would go to her room.
Knock..knock..
" Mommy, i have come today".
Somehow, there is gloomy aura i feel here.
The maid that attend my mother come to me.
"Excuse me Ruca-sama, Lady Sophia does not want to be disturbed today. Please return for today". She said.
I felt something is wrong.
"Why my mother does not want to see me? Is she sick? If that is the reason, i should see her now. Please open the door". I ask her.
"No thats not it". She deny.
"Then why?".
"Actually.... today is her wedding anniversary but master does not even look for her like every year before. Thus today she wants to be alone". She hesistantly tell me.
I resolve my will.
"Open the door".
"But..La..". The maid try to stop me.
"Please..". I look at her.
"Yes Ruca-sama". She gives up and open my mother's room.
When i go inside the room. I see my mother sit on her bed.
I approach her.
She does not move. She looks expresionless. Its like nothing in this world does not matter to her.
Its feel like I am not there beside her.
Then i hug my mother.
"Leave me. Let me be alone". She said.
I still hug her. Tightly.
"Go away. Leave me like everybody else do". She pushed me away.
Still I holding her.
"Get out!!!". She scream.
The maids outside seem shocked and they try to pull me out from the room.
"Leave. Close the door". I ask the maids to leave so my mother and I are alone together in the room.
Then, the more my mother trying to make me leave her the more tightly i am holding her.
Because I know...when she try to make me leave, the real meaning of her action is to make me stay.
No one want to be alone. No one like to be alone. No one love to be alone.
After she scream...then she start crying.
"Why he choose her? Why not me?" She keep on crying.
"I know to force my feeling upon him is my fault but at least...at least he should try to accompany me".
I keep on hugging her and caressing her.
Letting her pour out all her feeling of sadness, frustration and pain.
"I just do not want to be alone". She said her true feeling.
Then she become tired.
"Do not worry mommy. I will be with you". I said to her.
Its the first time i see her sleeping with ease. Its like nothing burden her anymore.
"Mommy please be happy". I pray for her deep in my heart.
