A Cup of Black Coffee

A Cup of Black Coffee
Chapter 40



After that conversation, I then went home, it seems my business will be longer here, therefore I have to entrust the store to Hendi tomorrow.


I arrived at the house with a quiet house. But it turns out that when I came in, I saw Mom knocking on Saeba's room.


"Let's Sa, eat first, you'll get sick later, I promise I'll ask your brother to pick up Faisal," Mother persuaded.


"Why Ma'am?" many approached him.


"Since noon Saeba had not eaten Bang, mother was afraid of her why-why," she said as she wiped her tears.


Then I tried knocking on Saeba's room, "Don't be rich, you have to take care of your health. Brother promised to see Faisal, but you have to eat" I persuaded.


"GO! Liar brother! I want Faisal now!" saeba pinta.


I sighed and turned to look at my mother, "has she eaten?" my many.


Mother shook her head, "yet, you want to eat Bang?" weak tanyanya.


"Let's Ragil accompany me to eat, we'll figure out how to persuade Saeba!" take me.


Mom said I was headed to the kitchen. I serve the food that is available at the table. I served my mother by taking food for her.


"Aren't you eating Bang?" tanyanya.


"I've eaten with Mr. Heru Bu," I want to know the reaction of my mother to hear that name.


Sure enough the eyes of the mother patterned, she then immediately drank water after swallowing her food.


"Why did you find that baw*ji*ngan guy?!" his jolt didn't take it.


"Mother eat first, only then do we talk" I asked.


Mother snorted, then returned to spooning her food into her mouth.


At least I want you to be full first so you can understand what we'll talk about later.


"Why did you meet him? You said just meet your in-laws, sort out all the problems," he said again.


But I ignored him, because if I answered, there would be no end. So I chose to keep quiet listening to mom's nagging.


"Why are you quiet, Gil! Answer mom," he said.


"Mom's done?" my many.


He then shifted the plate, I cleaned the former eating it into the sink and intended to make a warm drink for us.


"You want to do it anyway! answer my mother's questions!" the upset.


"Wait for Mom, Ragil make some tea first so we can talk quietly" I explained.


"Waste of time" he lamented.


I haven't paid much attention to mother's babbling since. I focused on making tea and coffee for me and then served it at our dinner table.


We sat face to face. "What do you want to ask?" calm saying.


"When are you going to meet your in-laws? Only he can help us now!" sue mom.


"Sorry Mom, I can't keep up with my mother-in-law's wishes to see my father-in-law. My conscience rejects that," I refused firmly.


"Why are you so stubborn Gil! Can't you obey? at least give it a little back!" mother's words were like a dagger piercing my heart.


My bad thoughts instantly recalled Faisal's words if I wasn't their child.


Can that be the reality?


"Is living a child a debt of gratitude Ma'am? Why do I feel as if I'm just a foster child?" my many.


Suddenly I was nervous to hear my words. Then he tried to avoid looking at my face.


"That's what you are, that's not what Mom meant. I'm just asking you to return the favor to your family-in-law who's helped us a lot."


"It is not necessary to uphold self-esteem, they promise to release you after the child is born" said the mother.


"No ma'am, I don't feel like I owe them anything" my dear.


"NOT YOU, BUT US! WE'RE YOUR PARENTS, YOU KNOW NOTHING!" mom snaps with a dead red face.


"If we could, we wouldn't sue you Bang! But they asked you, what can we do?" suddenly her crying broke.


"Would I be honest with Ragil, in fact, what was the father's business, why can cheat customers' money up to a billion?" I ignored his request.


Mom was surprised, she suddenly looked riled up. "Who did you say? Heru breng*sek that?" grunts.


"Yes, who else, I will have to meet the person who reports Dad, according to him Dad may only be made a scapegoat, there are people who are more powerful than Dad. I think you know who? That's the guy who should be responsible, right?" my clear.


"It's Gil, the easiest way is to succumb to your family-in-law, this time alone," persuaded the mother back.


I can't completely blame mom, whether she's telling me the truth or not, it's true that Dad was never open about his efforts, making me give up.


"Yes ma'am, Ragil will find a way out again" I replied stopping our night chat.


"You're really stubborn Ragil!" annoyed jolt.


I went into my old room. I threw myself a moment before I cleaned up.


Frankly I feel tired, I haven't even solved Saeba's problem.


I finally decided to inform Faisal, asking him to meet.


My message has been read, but it won't get a reply. Until I decided to contact him.


"Hello Bang," he answered me immediately.


"Sal's? You're not busy?" ask pleasantries.


"Not Bang, what's up?" ask her with a lazy tone.


"Can we meet tomorrow?" door direct.


He didn't answer right away, I hope he doesn't refuse. Even if he refused, I prepared to go to his house.


Ask for clarity about the fate of their marriage.


"Well Bang, where do you want to meet? I'd better go to the town of Abang, "he asked.


"Gga needs Sal, we meet at a sun cafe, it just so happens that Brother is home now," I explained.


Again we were silent for quite a while, he did not act anything and just answered yes.

When I was about to close my eyes, my phone again rang the state of a fresh body makes me instantly sleepy.


Hulya sent me a picture message. What else is he terrorizing me nights like this.


When I opened the message, I was surprised that he dared to send a picture of himself wearing a nightgown laughing at him.


Before long my phone rang again, she apparently made a video call to me.


Crazy one! Of course I refused it.


After I refused, a message came back from him.


"Didn't you miss me?" her writing was accompanied by crying emotes.


I'd rather just turn it off than be distracted. She's completely changed, I don't recognize her anymore.


Is he not ashamed to do such a thing, even though our status is still legal as husband and wife in state records, but religiously we are not husband and wife anymore.

The next morning, Saeba was about to come out, her eyes were swollen, maybe from yesterday she didn't stop crying.


"Don't torture yourself Sa, today you're going to see your husband, just pray that he'll change his mind" I said trying to calm him down.


He looked up at me with a sparkling look.


"real Bang? I hope you bring Faisal home no matter how. I can die Bang, if he leaves me," he replied.


"You can't just talk about Sa!" cut me pissed.


Why is his mind so short. I know he loves Faisal very much, but there's no need to be rash to talk about death either.


"But you have to bring Mas Faisal home!" he said, then went to the kitchen.
