JAKARTA - Nurul Arifin has repeatedly expressed regret after his first child, Maura Magnalia, died on Tuesday, January 28. Moreover, in the procession of closing the coffin, his son gave a special message to his parents.
"What Melkior said last night hit me once. It turns out that you can have anything, but if you don't have time, everything is nothing," said Nurul Arifin on Wednesday, January 26.
He admits that he has been so busy with political activities that he doesn't have time to spend with his family. “I need to spend more quality time with my family. That's all. So a lesson. It's never too late, I want to start again if it's deemed insufficient," said Nurul.
The regret grew when Nurul reminisced about the last time he spoke with Maura. Two days before he died, Maura confessed to her mother that she was tired.
"As for the last message, two nights before he died he came to my room," said Nurul Arifin in the Cinere area, Depok.
"He said, 'mom, I am tired,' he continued.
Before leaving, Maura was preparing for her master's degree and applying for jobs until she was exhausted. Nurul Arifin revealed that it was he who asked Maura to find a job. In fact, the child prefers to study.
"I said if he goes to college he won't work later, if he doesn't work, when will he learn other things. He really likes to study, I'm a bit regretful, so I push him to work, "recalls Nurul Arifin.
