Aini's Heart Journey

Jealous

Ardi and Aini walked casually down the hallway in the court. They along with two of his lawyers have just completed the first trial for Aini's abduction case.

"Mas," Call Aini in her step.

"Yes, honey." Reply Ardi attentively.

"Can I see Ratri's mother for a minute?" Ask Aini a little doubt.

Ardi immediately stopped his steps. And that also made Aini stop her steps.

"Why do you want to see him?" Ardi asked flatly, without looking at Aini.

"I want to ask him a few things, Mom. I can be with you if you like."

Ardi fell silent. There was a line of jealousy approaching Ardi. Jealousy for a man who bears the status of Aini's ex-husband.

Why so? Because, indirectly, if Aini remembered Ratri, he also must have remembered Adit. Moreover, Adit now knows the truth about Aini. Which does not rule out the possibility, the ex-husband and wife, the relationship will improve and will even come back close. And Ardi didn't expect that for sure.

Behind Ardi and Aini, Handoko had just received a call from someone. He approached Ardi to say something. He whispered to Ardi.

"Lawyer Mr. Adit and Ms. Ratri just called me. He said that Mr. Adit wanted to see Aini's mom, sir." Handoko Whisper.

Ardi's heart burned with jealousy for no apparent reason. He didn't expect it to happen so fast.

"Not today." Answer Ardi flat.

Ardi then just continued his steps. He even left Aini who was still waiting for the answer to his request earlier.

Aini then rushed to follow Ardi's steps. Step foot Ardi level, making Aini difficult to align the steps Ardi. But he knows Ardi's heart is not good at the moment. So, he chose not to talk much.

Along the way home, Ardi and Aini remained more silent. Even until nightfall, Ardi was silent in his room. It's really not as usual. He tried to reduce the jealousy of the unclear.

"I shouldn't have silenced Aini. He just wants to see his old friend. Astarghfirullah's. Why would I act like this to her?" Monologue Ardi.

Ardi then left the room. His house is deserted. Because indeed, the night has been rolling since then and getting late.

Ardi walked towards the room that Aini occupied. He wanted to apologize for his childish attitude from this afternoon. But, the atmosphere of the room sounded so quiet. Ardi also abandoned his intentions. He then walked to his study, to check the report from Dika, to divert his agitated heart.

While in the room, Aini was not able to fall asleep. He remembered Ardi's cold attitude from this afternoon. He felt guilty for asking Ardi for that simple thing.

Aini exited the room carefully. He wanted to get some fresh air to calm his mind. But, at the same time, he sees Ardi entering his study.

"Mas Ardi?"

Aini hurriedly followed Ardi into her study. He hesitantly knocked on Ardi's office door.

"Who hasn't slept? What mama?" Ardi muttered in surprise, as he had just sat in his chair.

Ardi then stood back up to open the door of his study.

"Here?" Inner Ardi was full of shock.

"May me,,"

Aini's words were cut off just like that, as the male's burly body before her, pierced her front body without excuse. Clutching so tightly, as if he did not want to let go.

Yes, Ardi pulled Aini's body and hugged her just like that. He regretted being jealous for no apparent reason since noon.

"Mas, it's not nice if someone else is looking." Reprimand Aini soon.

Instead of Ardi letting go of his embrace, he pulled Aini's body into his study. And don't forget, close the door of the workspace again, but not too close.

Aini could only resign when Ardi led her into the workspace. Slowly, the tiny soft arm, returned the embrace of the burly body that clutched tightly to his body.

No one said. Just enjoying each other's simple embrace for a while. Till,,

"I'm sorry, honey!" Ardi said slowly.

Aini slowly let go of her embrace. Ardi finally let go of his embrace.

Aini immediately raised her face, and looked at Ardi gently.

"I'm sorry too, Mom. I've always troubled and troubled you." Answer Aini saddly.

"Not at all, dear. You never troubled me at all."

"But I always ask you weird things, Mom."

"I'm glad you asked me that, not someone else."

"Then why have you been quiet with me since?"

"Sorry, Honey. I got a little carried away by that feeling."

Aini looked at Ardi in confusion. He did not understand what Ardi said.

Ardi smiled slightly looking at Aini's facial expression. He then took Aini's hand, and took her to sit on the sofa in his study. They sat facing each other.

"Sorry, I was jealous." I'm Ardi a little embarrassed.

"On your ex-husband." Honestly Ardi.

"But why Mas? I just want to see Ratri, not Adit. I'm worried about Ratri's condition."

"I know, Honey. I was overreacting. I-i'm sorry! Hem?"

Ardi gently kissed the back of Aini's hand, which was still held.

"What are you jealous of, Mom? I'm even here with you now. I couldn't sleep thinking about your cold attitude towards me since." I'm spoiled Aini.

"Sorry, dear."

Aini breathed a sigh of relief. He finally smiles at Ardi's confession, which turns out, misunderstood him.

"Come here!" Pinta Ardi, asking Aini to turn her body.

Aini also complied with Ardi's request. He immediately twisted his body to turn his back to Ardi. And Ardi immediately folded one leg on the chair, and pulled Aini's body to lean on the chest of his field.

Aini also leaned spoiledly on the chest of Ardi's field. Enjoying the warm embrace of the man who managed to disturb his heart.

"I'll be with you tomorrow to meet them." Said Ardi, after holding Aini's body from behind.

"They?"

Aini forced her to twist her body so that she could look at Ardi's face. But, with Ardi's hand still coiled around his waist.

"Yes. Mr. Adit and Ms. Ratri."

"But,,"

"Sir Adit wants to see you. His lawyer called Handoko sir earlier."

Aini silently did not answer.

"It's okay, honey. Mr. Handoko said, Mr. Adit wants to tell you something."

Aini still silently did not answer.

"I won't be angry and jealous of him anymore. Because obviously, I'm winning a lot from him right now."

Aini remained silent. Observe every facial expression and every word Ardi says. He was afraid, if Ardi would soak his jealousy and return to silence him.

"I believe you, dear." I'm Ardi.

Aini smiled with relief at Ardi's last words.

"I promise, next time, I'll tell you everything. So that there's no misunderstanding between us."

Aini nodded happily.

"One more time, I'm sorry, honey! I love you, dear."

"I'm not mad at you, Mom." Answer Aini gently.

CUPS. A gentle kiss, landed just like that on Ardi's left cheek. And that obviously makes Ardi surprised not to play.

"You teasing me, honey?" Ask Ardi naughty.

"What temptations, Mas?" Ask Aini confused.

"Taking me to pounce on you?" Ardi with his naughty face.

"What do you mean, Mom?"

"We're just two now, honey. And you suddenly kissed me on the cheek without my permission. What if I want to pay it back? But in a different place."

Aini just realized it was her act earlier. He reflexes just kissed Ardi cheek because touched by the attitude of Ardi who admitted his mistake. But he did not think, Ardi wanted to repay him in a different place. And Aini understood Ardi's intentions.

"Mas has done it before, hasn't he? Don't be weird, Mas!" Answer Aini shame.

"That's not weird, honey. I just wanted to thank you, because you forgave me and and returned your kiss earlier." Elak Ardi spoiled.

"Where is there such a thing, Mas?"

"Obviously, honey."

"Nothing, Mom."

"If so, I'll make it come into existence." Reply Ardi casually.

"What?"

Aini was clearly excited to hear Ardi's answer. He was very understanding of the meaning of Ardi's words.

The overflow of taste, sometimes makes us a little blinded by the taste itself. Makes us, do things that are a little childish without us noticing. But rest assured, that the taste never lies to the heart.
