"Son"
In reflex I looked up to meet the eyes of my father not the dreamy one but the parental.
"Well I guess this reaction" said my father with chuckle
"I'm sorry son" said my father
I was so lost to reply after waiting for 5min my father continue
"You know why I never care about or looked after you.............. because when you 3 years old, my love of life and your mother die. I found her on our bathroom dead and pale" said my father in cracked voice and with teary eyes.
I somehow know my mom was no longer but I never know about her dead reason and why father is talking about this now?
"You are sleeping that time when I found my love dead in bathroom still with little hope I take her hospital after doctor check her, they found that when you born that time her womb get too weak to carry any other baby and she have to rest more but after you born she busy with you and her job" said my father his hand was shaking
I leave my place and sit in front of him in the ground while gentle grab his warm yet rough hand to assume that I am here and always be.
He tighten his grip around my hand and take a deep breath before he continue
"After finding that whenever I see you, I see her in you, you perfectly resemble her. I blame you for losing my love, I am sorry son, I am really sorry" said my father, he is crying silent
"Dad, it's okay and I am sorry too" I said in cracked voice
My dad looked at me in the eye when he heard dad/pa because I never use them same as mochi never use it.
After calming ourselves my father spoke up again
"You know cantaloupe, your mom loved this name" He said with a smile on his face
I nodded
Then he hit my head lightly and spoke up
"And where are you this 7days and lemon? I was worried about you both, you know that" he said
I shocked that he notice our absent......then he cares my hair
"You know even I was wasted but I always check on you both, weather you are fine or eating well or sick and even lemon was not my child but after seeing you take care of her like her real brother so, I accept her also but I do this all in silent because I blame you for my lover dead" He said
I cried at that moment, I never think that my dad cared about me and mochi.
"And son you know why I finally decide to talk about you?" he said
I shake my head as a no
"You don't believe me, when you missed for starting 2 days, I panicked and don't know whom to ask and like that I sleep without notice and guess what.... your mom appear in my dream but this time she scolded me and pinch my ear for avoiding you and lemon and that time I decided that I will become a good father and start taking caring about you" he said with a smile like he imagine mom.
"She scold you hahhahah" I laugh
"Yes, little buddy so I call Ms. Melon, you don't remember her but she is the one who rise you when I decided to ignore you. She offer me a watchmen duty in Medthanan empire with enough salary to feed us and I want you to stop your part time job and focus on your study and I know how you worked hard for lemon trip" he said
