Vina looked at her husband who was still down. Radit slowly raised his head and looked at the face of his wife who was still staring at him. Indeed, Radit still felt a deep regret for ever hurting Vina.
"It's okay. If you are not willing to tell a story. I believe in you, Dad. What and how this house is. I'm sure you can take us in a better direction. Whatever your decision. I believe it because you already know what the consequences are."
"I'm only afraid if I tell the past. It will change your heart, Bun. I just want to be happy with you even if life is simple."
"Then tell me dad. By telling stories, your burden will decrease. I can accept your past as bad as anything. I trust. That you will give a happy future to this household. A simple life is better than a life of luxury but full of betrayal and sin."
Vina nodded. Convince Radit if the past is told. Radit took a deep breath before starting to tell the story.
The flashback back
"You go again" Anisa's mother asked Radit. Radit nodded as he descended the stairs. Getting closer to Mama Anisa who is sitting on the sofa in the living room. Radit extended his hand.
"Put your hands away if you ask your mother's permission to meet that cheap woman" Anisa said angrily. Seeing Radit's attitude after dating makes Anisa very sure that the woman who brought bad influence on her son.
"Just for a minute ma, ten o'clock I promise to go home" said Radit.
"No. Yesterday you asked for such permission. Don't go home at ten. You even go home in the morning. You can't leave tonight. Tomorrow you go to college in the morning."
"Listen to your mother, Radit."
Jack, who had been reading the newspaper, now took the newspaper out of his sight and folded it. Seeing his son's dissident attitude. Jack intervened just for Radit.
"I'll be home in time, pa."
"But mama doesn't allow you to be near that woman. What woman is still dating but wants to sleep in your room. Besides, I've seen that woman walk with a man who's aged in the mall," said Anisa's mother was angry. He had received a report from one of the maids at his house that Radit had brought the woman into the house and entered the room.
"He has never been to this house. And about the man you've seen walk with could be his father" defended Radit.
"Do keep on your girlfriend's. For her sake, you've fought mama many times."
"That's because my mom never gave me the freedom to date. Until whenever I don't want to be betrothed. Modern times ma. Not the time of Siti Nurbaya anymore."
"If you're dating a good woman. Mama could have allowed it. But the woman is not clear it has affected you. You become changed. Often go out the night not even home. You're still in college one semester but your behavior has exceeded the normal limits of your age Radit."
"He has the name ma. Her name is Intan not an obscure woman."
"Whatever or whatever the name is. What mom wants. You go into the room and don't come out."
"Sounds Mama Radit. Go to your room" tell Jack. Radit clucked in annoyance. He looked closely at his parents. Without respecting the orders of his parents. Radit stepped out of the house.
"Radit," call Anisa tight. Radit doesn't care. He got further away from the living room and finally got out of the house.
Radit pulled his bike out of the garage. Ride the motorcycle fast towards Intan's house. He didn't want Intan to wait long. The message he receives from the lover if Intan is alone at home. Radit learns Intan's purpose in sending himself home if Intan is alone. And Radit really likes that. His youth was colored by the presence of his beloved. After a few minutes of driving. Radit arrives at Intan's luxurious home.
"I've been waiting for you Radit. Why long?" tanya Intan who was already standing in front of the house. Her material-deprived clothes revealed all the assets that were supposed to be hidden.
"Regular. Both my parents would not let me out of the house. I have to go home at ten Intan" Radit replied as he took the key. He went into the house following Intan's steps.
"The old man." sizzled Intan. But Radit can still hear it.
"Actually my parents were not ancient Intan, what they said was true. It is precisely we who are too overreaching in getting along."
"But you like it. You came here because you like what we do. Don't be hypocritical you're Radit" Intan said as he slammed his butt on the couch. Radit followed him sitting on that couch.
"That's who?" willy asked while pointing at a photo hanging on the wall. A photo of a man who seemed to be in his fifties. I came to this house a few times. This is the first time Radit has seen the photo.
"Let's guess" replied Intan.
"That's your dad yeah. Take your own photo. Where is your mother?"
"My mother is dead Radit" replied Intan sadly.
"Sorry Intan. I didn't mean to bring up your grief" Radit said regretfully. Radit got up from his seat and moved to sit beside Intan. Intan just nodded. But the look of sadness was still left on that face. Seeing Intan sad. Radit was sad too. Radit embraces the shoulder of Intan, a lover he loves dearly. A lover who taught him many things. A lover who gives you a taste of pleasure for the first time.
Their meeting started from looking for books in the library. They are looking for the same book. There was only one book left in the library. After knowing that Intan is fifth semester while Radit is first semester. Radit gave up the book for Intan who borrowed it. Intan is very happy. This book is very important to him. Because in semester one. Intan failed for courses related to the book. Intan offered them to take turns using the book. If for today he first uses the book and for tomorrow Radit will use the book. Radit agrees. Because he also needed the book.
Gayung. Radit's love doesn't clap one hand. Intan also claims to love Radit. Radit's happy. First time loving a woman and her love is reciprocated.
Love is not expressed by words alone. Intan also seems to love Radit with action. Provides Radit attention and also often bring their own food. Radit soared to get love from an Intan. Radit gave his whole heart to Intan. Diamonds are like that too.
Their love doesn't get there. Intan took Radit to his house. A luxurious house occupied only by Intan. They were both free in the house. Doing things they shouldn't. Only one thing Radit didn't realize. He could not come to the house as he pleased. Radit can only come if Intan brings or calls Radit to the house.
And here he is now. Intan calls Radit home alone. Radit understands that. Radit suspects that Vina has not been allowed to date by her father.
"It's okay Radit. I often feel sad when I am alone. Please accompany me yes," said Intan who had been leaning on Radit's chest. Radit nodded and rubbed Intan's arm. But the swab has spread to Intan's stomach. Two humans of different sexes were increasingly drifting with the touch of each opponent. Again they commit sins. They do what only the husband and wife should do. The plain and young Radit is now an experienced Radit to satisfy women.
Radit and Intan smiled in satisfaction after the activity. Intan again touched Radit's hand and took the man into the room downstairs. Intan wants that activity again. But Radit just fell silent and sat on the edge of the bed.
"We continue with Radit" said Intan, who now sits on Radit's lap. Radit lifted Intan's body and sat on the edge of the bed.
"I have to go home, Intan. It's ten o'clock. My mother will be very angry if I come home late" Radit refused. Deep in his heart. Radit felt so guilty for fighting back to his parents. He was a good boy to both his parents. Since I knew Intan. Radit often fights Anisa and Jack. The pleasure given by Intan is very much a loss to be rejected. Moreover, Radit already knows the taste and can be said Radit is addicted and increasingly addicted to the taste.
"You suck Radit. Mama's son turned out," replied Intan annoyed. If possible, Intan wants Radit to stay at his house. Accompany her to spend a night full of warmth like the night before. But what you want is not what happens. Radit wanted to go home for fear of being scolded by his mother.
"Sorry Intan. I have to go home tonight. I didn't want my parents to get angry about not coming home. Next time I will accompany you to sleep here if my parents go out of town," Radit said to persuade Intan who was increasingly showing his annoyance.
"no need. I need you now. You're not running or racing wild. Why your mom should be angry. You just sleep here. The same thing you would do in your home. If you're not willing to accompany me tonight. Better forget me. Don't ever meet me at college or call. I don't like dating mama's boy men who have no standing and no adults" replied Intan. Intan put his shirt back on. He threw away Radit's clothes that had not been worn after the intoxicating activity earlier. Radit was wearing that outfit.
Radit rubbed his face rough. Radit dilemma. If he comes home. Intan will be furious. If he does not go home his parents will be angry. Radit kneaded the temple to choose what to do at this time.
"Intan. What we're doing is actually very wrong. And this is sin. I have to go home now. I'll ask my parents to let us get married soon. That way you're not lonely anymore and our relationship is halal" Radit said. According to Radit, marriage is the only way for both of them. Intan is not lonely anymore and he also does not fight anymore to his parents.
"Married. You think getting married is easy. You're even in college. What do you want me to eat. Wear leaves?" sneering Intan. Radit looked at Intan in disbelief at the ridicule he had just heard.
"I was able to go to college while working at my papa Intan's company. I think it's for your meal and your college. I'm up for it. You don't have to worry."
"But unfortunately. I have no interest in getting married young. I'd rather be like this. Keep your dreams away from me."
"But what we're doing is Intan's sin."
"Man is a place of sin. It is natural that we sin. Just relax Radit. Don't be your saintly pretender" replied Intan as he flicked his hand. Intan is not at all affected by the words Radit.
"Where is the woman happy to be married."
"Don't equate me with another woman Radit. I'm a free woman. If you want to marry me. There's a time but it's not this time."
"As far as you are Intan. I don't understand your way of thinking. I'm going home now" Radit said a little angrily. The kindness of marrying Intan was not responded to at all upset Radit. Intan's refusal to marry makes Radit angry.
"You're home. That means we're the end" Intan shouted from the room. Radit who was already in the living room finally returned to the room. He did not expect that the threat of Intan had turned out to be true.
"I've given you satisfaction. I've given my body to you Radit. This is your reply. I just asked you to accompany me in this house. I think it's a small thing. But you are not willing to give that little thing to the great thing I have given you" cried Intan again. Radit realized that what Intan said was the truth.
"You are like this. I'm sure you don't love me. The words of love that come out of the mouth turned out to be just a fight in order to enjoy my body," said Intan again. Radit felt guilty after hearing Intan's words. Radit drew closer to Intan and hugged the body which looked sad.
"I really love you, Diamond. That's why I want to marry you. That is proof of my love" Radit replied. She hopes Intan changes her mind to be willing to marry her.
"No need to marry me Radit. Enough of you to accompany me when you are alone is enough for me as proof of your love" said Intan who had looked up to Radit.
"alright. I'll stay here if that's what makes you happy" Radit finally replied. Intan was happy and kissed Radit's lips at a glance.
"Thank you Radit" Intan said. Radit nodded.
Radit released his embrace from Intan. A special ring heard from the phone indicates if the mother is contacting. Radit took the phone out of his pants pocket.
"I didn't go home ma" Radit said after returning greetings from his mother. Radit scolded his temple for hearing his mother's words that he should go home tonight.
"Ma, I'm an adult. I don't do anything dangerous. I just stayed at my friend's house. I sleep at home too, right?. So it makes no difference. Sleeping here or sleeping in our house is the same. Tomorrow morning I'll be home soon" Radit snapped to his mother. Radit disconnected the call unilaterally and disabled his phone.
Intan smiled. He's waiting for Radit in bed. He heard what Radit said to his mother. Intan is very happy. Rasit chose to accompany himself to sleep rather than hear his mother Radit who told him to go home. Radit also eventually catches up with Intan to bed. After deciding on the call, his heart was not good. He felt guilty for yelling at his mother. But for the love of Intan. Radit had to happen that way. Radit forced a smile on the diamond that was staring at him.
