A Mistake

A Mistake
The End of Competition



"Assalamu'alaikum's chat..."


"Wa'alaikum..."


Hans and Amirah answered Sasongko's greetings together. After that Hans stood up, instead he approached and kissed his grandfather's hand as usual but Hans instead went to avoid his grandfather's presence.


"Where are you Hans?" ask Amirah.


"Room.mo had a sultry bath." replied Hans Ngasal and left without greeting his grandfather.


"Hans, what's wrong with you?" asked Sasongko, but ignored by Hans.


Instead of being angry and offended, Sasongko looked at his wife and the two chuckled together, as if satisfied that he had played his grandson.


"Mas thirsty? I'll make you a drink first yeah.later a new story..."


"Yes.thank you..."


Amirah smiled and headed to the kitchen to make drinks for her beloved husband. Since they married, Sasongko never wanted to drink a drink that was not made by his wife, except when they were visiting other people's homes. Even when Sasongko was still active in the office, Sasongko always carried a flask containing drinks made by his wife.


"Have you met Dira?" asked Amirah while giving her a cup of ginger tea.


"We talked a lot about him and about Hans..."


Sasongko put down the cup that had been gulped.


"It seems like this time Hans met the right girl...Dira is a good girl, unfortunately they were found the wrong way. But Tio and his wife are willing to help us secretly..."


"Tio and his wife? Why should they? The other guys?"


"The girl turned out to be the son of his best friend Ina's wife Tio, and they had already considered Dira as their child because Dira's mother Goddess had long died. And it turns out that Ina had also been persuading Dira to accept Hans but the girl was stubborn enough to refuse him...I don't know what the reason is still unclear. Ina just wanted to find out to Dira. While my other men I was assigned to guard and observe Dira activities remotely..."


"Then with Dira's parent company how? So, what is it that you disburse funds by investing there?"


"God willing... The company was apparently founded by both parents Dira with capital from the sale of inheritance owned by his mother Dira. For that because Dira wants to serve his parents, then Dira also assented my proposal... Hans how?"


"She told me about the gold pin to Dira. Like our agreement, I also seemed to approve the proposal mas. Then he begged me to ask the mas to cancel the proposal to Dira..."


"Ha ha ha... Then you answer me how?" asked Sasongko while laughing amusedly.


"I said, if you're a man, take Dira from your grandfather.ha ha ha.." replied Amirah who then laughed but a second later his laughter stopped and was like daydreaming.


"Why?" ask husband.


"You think about it..What are we doing is not outrageous? The age of Hans was very mature for the household, his friends were already married and had children. Some have more than one child. If we're still messing around with Hans like this, when can we pet his great-grandchild? After all, this time Hans seemed to be completely in love with Dira. I felt sorry to see what looked like a desperate person" explained Amirah at length. Sasongko seemed to understand what his wife wanted...


"You call Hans here, tell him I want to talk..."


Amirah got up from her seat and stepped up the stairs to meet Hans in her room.


While Hans was out of the room in his family's house, he stepped down to leave the house. His ears were pierced by the laughter of his grandparents who seemed to be laughing at his defeat. Amirah knew Hans' feelings and as Amirah's parents couldn't stand to see her granddaughter like a desperate man.


"Hans..where are you going?" amirah asked as she approached her grandson.


"Go home..!"


"Where to? Isn't this your house?"


"Hans is not comfortable living here... Hans going to the apartment?" hans said as he moved his legs back.


But with a swift grandmother who was in her 70s, pulled Hans' hand.


"What makes you uncomfortable? Sit down first, your grandfather wants to talk..."


"Other times...Hans doesn't want to talk to Grandpa..."


"Hans...! You're three heads old, be a little grown up." hardik Amirah, who was finally able to make Hans obey his orders.


Hans slammed his body on the sofa of the living room with a half-lying seat. Sasongko, who had been sitting on the back porch, walked closer to his grandson. His right leg kicked Hans' leg which was blocking the road.


"Why are you avoiding grandpa?"


Hans silently did not answer.


"You're angry with Grandpa?"


Hans was still silent, not even urinating.


"Hans Hendra Saputra...! Is there no respect in your heart for your grandfather?" hardik Sasongko saw Hans ignoring his question.


"What does Grandpa really want? What would you do if you were Hans? Compete with his own grandfather to get the woman who becomes his grandson's idol..."


Sasongko watched every word that came out of Hans' mouth and laughed.


"Ha ha ha...So this is Dira's problem? Ha ha - ha..."


"Huh.could still be able to laugh.outrageous.." muttered Hans who was still heard by his grandfather's old hearing.


"Then what do you want?" sasongko asked while holding back his laughter.


"Hans wants grandpa to cancel grandpa's proposal to Dira. Didn't you realize that Dira is more worthy of being grandfather's grandchild than being grandfather's wife. After all, are grandfathers not the same as grandmothers who have been accompanying grandfather for 50 years? Grandpa realized no, anyway, if this grandfather's actions will hurt Grandma?" hans said fiery, while Sasongko listened to every word spoken by his grandson.


"Your grandmother allowed Grandpa to propose to Dira..Then what's the problem? What good is it for you if Grandpa cancels this proposal?"


"Astaghfirullah.wouldn't you know if Hans loves Dira...?"


"You never told Grandpa." Sasongko still pranks his granddaughter.


Amirah came to bring orange juice and cake made, after laying on the table and then Amirah spoke up to divorce the quarrel of the two loved ones.


"Mas, you promised to end this charade, right?" ask Amirah.


"Theatricality? What show?" hans asked confusedly.


"Hans, actually the grandfather asked Dira not for himself.but for you." said Amirah explained.


"I mean...?" hans asked confused. Between wanting to scream happy or yelling angry because they feel they have been played by their grandparents.


Finally Sasongko told everything, from the beginning of the incident that night, after Tio took care of Dira in the hospital, Tio faced Sasongko and then told the incident related to his grandson. Sasongko even visited Dira to the hospital. Sasongko knew Hans' attempt to win Dira's heart and Sasongko felt his grandson's steps were too slow, so Sasongko decided to join the canpur.


"So all this time my grandparents knew everything?"


"Yes.and as a guy, you're too slow to get close to Dira... It was fortunate that the incident that night did not make Dira pregnant. If Dira was pregnant, maybe the hunt gave birth because of your delay.." Sasongko grumbled.


Hans could only grin the horse, then he shifted his seat closer to Sasongko and hugged his grandfather.


"Thank you grandpa." he said sincerely full haru.
