A ROSE FOR MOM

A ROSE FOR MOM
A ROSE FOR A MOTHER OF 30



Arum's heart melos. Just wanted to connect with her husband, Suryo's mom showed up.


Bram shut his phone back down.


"Please be patient, Miss Arum."


Arum breathed a sad sigh.


"Don't tell me we're talking about Mr. Aryo. We will think about the next step. I'll help you as much as I can."


Meanwhile, Suryo's car stopped. Bram down and approaching.


"So it turns out you've met Arum?"


"Meet in the street, then we walk down the streets of Bu village."


"Son Bram didn't say anything, did he?"


"No ma'am, mother first, I'm following you from behind."


Bram hopes that on the way to the house he can still call Aryo, then connect him with Arum. But suddenly..


"Wait, I'm in his car, Nak Bram, I want to talk" Suryo said as he got out of the car..


Well, fail again. Bramasto's complaint in the heart.


Bram opens the door for Suryo's mom.


"Who did you buy a pulse to call?" ask Suryo's mom as she sits.


"You called my mother" Arum said. Lucky, not dating but cocog answer with yu Siti answer.


"Have you got the pulse?"


"Yet. Hunted to see Dr. Bram, then invited to walk.


"Hm, good, but you're what you are, out of the house wearing clothes like that. It's a home garment," Suryo said.


"It's only a little way, right near Mom."


Bram's car was cruising quietly. But not so with his heart. Disappointed at failing to bring Arum and her husband together continues to haunt her. Perhaps so did Arum.


"If you want to call your mother, wait for me to."


"Yes mom, later."


"Mother so remember, from yesterday there was a phone many times called, but once I answered, then closed again. Who's that guy, just interrupt."


Bram who heard it was silent. He knew who was calling, but he didn't have to say it. Bram actually thought, how to release Arum from this bond of debt from Suryo. He knew Arum was disinclined because he felt indebted.


***


As soon as he arrived, Bramasto was immediately taken to the dining room by Suryo's mother.


Bram was amazed. It's a small house in the village, but nicely laid out with expensive furniture. In the living room, Bram saw a beautiful sofa, in the corner there was a wall clock that was not so big but hung on the wall, which pulled out a clang every quarter of an hour. A dining room with a not-so-large table, with four carved chairs surrounding it. The dining table was filled with rice with various side dishes.


"Let's go, son, please." said Suryo ma'am to let Bram sit in a chair.


"Your wine is there, near Bram's son, I'm the same yu Siti here," said Suryo ma'am arranged, and no one denied it.


"This house is very nice" Bram murmured while sitting down.


"Just a hamlet house."


"If you don't come back here, who's waiting?"


"I have a lot of people here. They work my fields, take care of them, and look after and clean this house every two days."


Bramasto nodded. No wonder Bu Suryo can live decent, he has a lot of rice fields in this village, no matter how many hectares, Bram does not want to ask.


"Let's go ahead, oh Arum, why shut up, serve our guests dong."


Arum scoops rice on Bram's plate, offering him whichever side dish he chooses. 


"Let's Miss Arum, let me take it myself. Confused me, so many side dishes here.


"This is the side dish of the village. Vegetable bobor.this is corn bakwan, Arum who fries it, fried tilapia, sambel plow ya yu, then trancam. That's just Bram's son."


"It's a fancy meal, not a village meal."


"In the city rarely find bobor vegetables. From the leaves of spinach, kates young. cobain deh.."


"Arum, why shut up, let's get the side dish."


"Already Mom, I'll just take it myself. Hm, the bobbin vegetables are as good as they are."


Arum did not say much, he only replied when Suryo's mom asked him to talk. His heart was still filled with regret for failing to be able to call Aryo. He was confused how to behave.  If you have to be frank with Suryo ma'am, he did not dare, or rather hesitant. The feeling of debt is very heavy. 


"Hm, this bobby vegetable is delicious, May you know Siti's mom, what's the spice?"


"Well, that's easy, doctor. But the time Mr Doctor wants to cook himself anyway?" ask Siti.


"True Ma'am, I often cook by myself if you want to. This I want to do, really."


"The season is onion, garlic, kencur laos greetings, then there is tempe rub, given coconut milk also later after the vegetables are tender.


"Tempe a figure what is it?"


"Tempe bosok that tempe that has been passed so, if the Javanese say it has been besem-besem so, but only a little tempe the figure. Well if for the falling sambal, tempeh the figure is many, almost all of the tembe boosok."


"Hm, the name of the figure is rotten right Mom, but it's good for seasoning huh.?


"That's how the Doctor."


"Eat him, son Bram, immediately find a wife, so as not to bother thinking about cooking spices," said Suryo bu while glancing at Arum. Arum pretended not to hear, busying himself with scooping rice that actually felt heavy swallowed.


"Yes ma'am, tomorrow if anyone wants to be with me."


"What if I find him?" said Suryo's mom again while glancing at Arum.


Ms. Siti was a little upset to hear Suryo's joke.  It must mean Arum. Arum looks flabbergasted. Chewing bakwan who just bit him like without feeling. Dr. Bram is engrossed in enjoying a vegetable bobor that has never been felt before.


"Enak Bu Siti, someday I will make my own."


Ms. Siti did not answer, but gave her thumbs up, because her mouth was still busy chewing food.


***


"Sir Doctor, listen, I want to talk" said Suryo's mother half-whispering, when Arum was nowhere near him.


"Yes ma'am, what's wrong?"


"Son the Doctor knows, why did I block Arum from returning to her same husband? First of all I don't believe it, because once he betrays you another day he will. Second, I want Doctor Nak to be Arum's soul mate."


Bramasto was glued to his seat. Suryo looked at her as if he could not believe it.


"In fact, Arum will become a widow. But she's a good woman. He'll be a companion who won't disappoint."


Bram leaned his body against a sofa.


"It's not a problem that I can't accept a widow, but Arum's mother is still the wife of Aryo sir."


"Isn't the divorce proceeding?"


"I guess they still love each other."


"Ah, time? Arum doesn't care about her husband."


Could it be Suryo's mom, how could she know the contents of Arum's heart? That's what Suryo wants himself. Bramasto said in his heart.


"But Bram can think first. The answer doesn't have to be now. The divorce process is also underway. "


"But I heard Mr. Aryo refused to divorce Ms. Arum. That's a sign he still loves his wife."


"What kind of love would it be if Arum was just a game?"


"One mistake can't be used to accuse her of how bad she is. If he repents, should we not forgive?"


"You can forgive, but don't expect an apology to bring them together."


Apparently Bram did not want to argue too far.  He didn't answer. Half a glass of the remaining drink.


"Mom, can I take Arum's mom for a walk?"


"Where to walk?"


"I want to take a look around this village. I want Ms. Arum to accompany me." said Bramasto in hopes of continuing her conversation with Arum, and connected her to Aryo to talk.


"Good boy, it seems that Bram wants to start a deeper approach with Arum."


Bramasto smiled.


"I'll call Arum. But I also want to come along, Doctor," said Suryo's mother while away.


Lhaaah? Coming along? Ouch.. Bram threw his body back on the sofa. Disillusioned. I haven't thought about what to do.


  ***


It was late in the afternoon, Aryo seemed to be waiting for something, agitated while holding his phone, walking here and there. Ratih who was waiting for Angga to play noticed him. Sultry by the question mark that filled her mind, she approached Aryo.


"Sir Aryo.. "


Aryo turned towards Ratih. He knew Ratih wanted to ask him something about his attitude.


"Do you see if I am confused?" ask Aryo.


"Why confused sir?"


"Doctor Bram said that when you get home will call, but I haven't called yet either."


"So he's not home yet. Looks like we're getting out of town."


"Yes, I told you that to Mr. Aryo."


"really. Maybe he hasn't made it home yet."


"Just try Aryo sir telpone, so you can know where he got to. If only awaited, Mr. Aryo is confused."


Right too, Aryo thought. A confused heart makes all thoughts become clogged.


"Hallo.." Aryo's phone immediately greeted. Bram took it quickly.


"Sir Bram's home?"


"Oh, not yet, maybe soon, about an hour or so, I'll tell ya."


"Alright, thank you, sorry I interfered."


"It's okay, it's delivering brothers."


Aryo breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone is always reminded. He saw Ratih who looked at him with pity.


"Thank you, Mrs. Ratih. It's true, it's not home yet."


"It seems that all will soon be well done, because there is a doctor Bram who will help." 


"Yes, ma'am Ratih. I was very nervous after understanding the problem. Arum thinks I married Rini. Have I gone crazy?"


"It is regrettable why Ms. Arum did not want communication with Mr. Aryo yes, everything became chaotic. "


"Right, it's hard to contact him. How can I clarify? "


"Yes, this has already happened, the important thing is that Arum can immediately find out the true events, so that he can receive Mr. Aryo back."


"Aamiinu. Now I want to take a shower first, so at any time Mr. Bram tells me, I'm ready to go there."


"Please Mr."


"Nitip my phone yes Ma'am, later if the doctor Bram call Bu Ratih can answer it. Tell me I'm getting ready for his house."


"All right, sir."


Ratih put his phone in his pocket, then approached Angga.


"Come, the play is yes, it's time to take a shower," cried Ratih as he approached Angga.


"Are we leaving?"


"No, where are you going?"


"So you said you wanted to take a shower."


Ratih laughs.


"Are we just going to take a shower if we want to go? It's late afternoon, time to clean up."


"Well, Angga save the car first."


"Good, keep it in 'garage' yeah.."


Angga brought his car. There's a place on the corner of the patio that they call the garage. That's where any Angga's little car isn't being used.


Angga ran backwards, ahead of Ratih. Ratih sighed, before long he would not be able to share cheerfully with this adorable little handsome. At first glance, there was water inflate in his eye. After all Angga like already a part of his days, and a farewell would definitely be sad.


"The fairy mother is coming soon", muttered Ratih slowly.


"What did you say?" it turned out that Angga heard the whisper.


"What the hell? Mom didn't say anything."


"So mom said fairy godmother. And you heard it."


"O, I mean, if Angga always complies, then the fairy godmother will come soon."


"Really ?"


Ratih nodded as he blinked his eyes. Don't want her tears to drip and Angga sees it.

When Bramasto received a phone call from Aryo, Suryo's mother, who was sitting behind, noticed him. They just circled around the village, and Suryo said, which was his rice fields. It was very large, dozens of hectares. But being unable to communicate with Arum alone, Bram immediately turned his car back.


"We're home? Over there, at the end, there's still my orchard. There's mangoes and rambutans."


"Maybe next time I'll come here again and see this village is quieter. It's late and I have to go home soon."


"Oh, do you want to practice bram in the afternoon? Is this Sunday?" ask Suryo's mom.


"No ma'am, it's not a matter of practice, I don't practice at home, I'm tired."


"Why did it seem to be rushing home?"


"I have an appointment with a friend" Bram said as he glanced at Arum next to him.


Arum looked at him, and saw Doctor Bram blink one eye. Is Dr Bram dating her husband?


"Oh, who called that, son?"


"Yes ma'am, that was calling."


"Oh, okay. When's Bram coming back?"


"If there's free time, ma'am."


"Sorry, if there are many disappointments in Mother welcoming Nak Bram, please, welcome the village."


"Mother, I'm so happy. I feel like a special guest. Thank you very much Ma'am. Nothing at all disappoints. Next time I'll come here."


"Thank you son, I hope we can really be a family."


This last remark was not answered by Bramasto. The request is considered fabricated, while Arum still has her husband.


"Why did you just stay silent? You sick?" ask Suryo's mom because Arum didn't talk.


"It's okay, ma'am, Bram has talked a lot. Afraid of rivals," Arum said trying to joke.


"Yes, I'll have a rival if Arum's mom comes along."


"Well, if it's okay, I'm afraid you're feeling dizzy or something."


"Arum is just tired Mom."


"Later to get home, you need to rest."


"All right, ma'am," that's what Arum meant, so that later Suryo's mom will no longer ask him to talk.


"May I know Ms Arum's cell phone number?" ask Bram.


"May I will note."


"Lha is it necessary, Bram boy can contact Arum by my number right?" talk to Suryo.


"But if over time the number of Arum ma'am die can be charred ma'am, later I help fill it when it reaches home."


Bram reaches out his phone to Arum, and asks Arum to write down his phone number.  Ms. Suryo was silent, unable to refute Bramasto's words.


***


 


Bramasto had taken a bath and was already fragrant when welcoming Aryo at his home. The two handsome men who had become friends even though they had only met once twice seemed very familiar.


He recounts his encounter with Arum, and why Arum thought Aryo was married to Rini. Only assumptions, only estimates and used as a reason to divorce. Aryo was sad to hear that. 


"But I'm grateful Mr. Bram has said it all. All that truth."


"I haven't even had time to tell my meeting with Ratih's mom, because the story about Mr. Aryo is not finished, and I almost called Mr. Aryo to talk to Arum's mom, but Suryo's mom is coming.


"What is the reason why he prevents us from coming together?"


"Sir Aryo, sorry, this is not my will. Apparently Suryo's mom wanted me to marry Arum's mom."


Aryo stunned.


"It seems that he is preventing Mr. Aryo from reuniting with Ms. Arum, even though I have said the truth. He even forbade me to tell Arum. But I told Arum everything."


"I've just filled in the pulses, so we can communicate directly. But Mr. Aryo must be careful, if Miss Suryo hears the ringing telephone bu Arum will certainly be suspicious.and a thousand ways will be done bu Suryo to block it."


Bramasto immediately gave Arum his mobile number.


"Perhaps if it's midnight I can call her, hopefully the room is different from Suryo's."


Bram agreed.


But suddenly Bramasto's phone rang. Not a phone call but a short message, from Arum.


"Mas Bram, help me, I plan to take Arum abroad."
