Antique Boyfriend

part 28: Not Moving On yet

Mama arrived home with a matted face, upset that Gideon did not want to pick her up, also upset because the bulge she was riding had to patch the tire because it leaked. Actually Mama could have been looking for another ojol, but the driver was very fond, asking Mama to use his services. The driver didn't get any passengers that afternoon.

"That's a big mess, Ma? Must be mad at Bang Gideon" Karin guessed.

"Where is Mama angry? Mom's childhood is asked please don't want to. This Mama is still healthy, still needed to have been treated like gini. What if Mama is old and a burden? Mama could have been thrown out on the street."

"Don't say it like dong, Ma! Karin is sad to hear. Try Karin can ride a motorbike, surely Karin would like to, be told to be with Mama."

Gideon also heard the chatter of Mama and Karin. The guy was sorry, why had he refused to pick up his mother. If the mother had not gone to Thalita's house, Gideon would have picked her up. But this is Thalita's house. Gideon could not afford to visit the house again.

Too many memories of Gideon going on in Thalita's house. Dating for four years with the girl, got Gideon somehow hundred times to that place.

Back then, back in High School, Thalita was Gideon's underclassman. Gideon was in 12th grade and Thalita in 10th grade. Every day, Gideon went to school with Thalita. The habit stalled when Gideon graduated and went to college. Then it happened again when they were studying at the same campus.

Mama Thalita even considered Gideon as her own son. Mama Thalita often cooks Gideon's favorite food, then invites him to breakfast or lunch together.

It was hard for Gideon to set foot in that house after breaking up with Thalita. The guy is sure, his communication with mama Thalita will be stiff and clumsy, no longer flexible as before. That's why Gideon refused to pick up his mother.

"Keep, what do you have to say? You're not a mama yet, Rin, so you don't know what it's like to be rejected as a child when asking for help."

Unable to hear Mama's complaints, Gideon came out of his room with teary eyes.

"I'm sorry Gideon, Ma! Gideon refuses to pick up Mama, as Gideon has yet to meet Thalita. Gideon's heart still hurts, every time he sees her, Ma. It wasn't Gideon's intention to make Mama sad. When Mama told me that Gideon and Karin didn't care about Mama, Gideon's heart hurt."

Gideon began to cry, though he made no sound. But Mama knows, the heart of her bachelor child must be sad, hearing her complaint earlier.

"Mom's sorry for you two, not that Mama also makes you sad. Mama was disappointed, but Mama understood Gideon's reason. It's hard to meet an ex, especially a dearest ex. I'm sorry, Gideon, Karin!"

Gideon and Karin hug Mama, all three of them being like teletubbies who like to cuddle. Long enough they were in such a state, until Papa who had just come home from work was astonished. Papa also hugged, so they're now exactly the real tubbies.

"Had this Papa, come to play just now, smell of acem, nih!" grouse Mama.

Papa even directed Mama's face towards her ketek, making Mama more crunchy. Karin and Gideon laughed when they saw their parents.

After a while of joking, Mama and Karin head to the kitchen, to make Papa coffee and cook dinner. Papa and Gideon chat on the porch.

"Kok Papa long time not see Thalita you brought here, Yon?"

"Gideon has broken up with Thalita, Pa."

"Lha why? Aren't you all well yesterday?"

"Gideon's wrong, Pa. Gideon was close to another girl, and Thalita was jealous, constantly asking for a break up."

"What kind of girl tempts you? Is she better than Thalita?"

"He's a selebgram, Pa. At first saturated with the relationship of Dion and Thalita, Thalita too indifferent Gideon. There's this Lily who's paying attention to Dion, so Dion's on her way."

"Keep Thalita knows, and ask to break up."

"You're granting?"

"Yes, Pa. Because Lily looked so much better than Thalita, so Gideon was more comfortable with her. But---"

"But what?"

"Gideon was only used by Lily. With the appearance of Gideon who is said to be antique, Lily makes Gideon attract the interest of the viewer to her toxic account. Gideon has broken up with Thalita" said Gideon sadly.

"Whoops!! Are you sorry about Thalita?"

"You know, Pa."

"Well, back it up?"

"Udah too, but Thalita refused. It seems he's hurting for Gideon."

"Never apologize, repeatedly, until it works!"

"Uuu .. That's it, Pa."

"But it hasn't worked, has it? Try again! So the guy don't give up easily! Must be resilient when fighting! Papa aja, once found your mama very difficult. How many times have Papa been rejected, but Papa abstained. Finally, Papa got your mama too, right?"

"Yes yes. Kan Mama was forced to accept your papa, because of the hassle of mulu. Every guy who is close to Mama, threatened with your father," said Mama who suddenly had appeared and listened to the chat Gideon and Papa.

"Nobody said yes, Yon? You hear that? But there is no form, hiiii serem, lest this house has ghosts," said Papa while wailing like looking for someone who is not seen.

Gideon did not see Papa's action, while Mama saw sewot. Mama put Papa's coffee cup rough, until there is some spilled. Papa followed me to see my mother's reaction.

"Cie cie there's a sewot. Yes yes, Mama was forced to nerima Papa because Papa disturbed her continuously. But my mom also likes Papa to be disruptive. So we both like it, hahahaha."

"Mom doesn't like Papa. Mama likes Erik the doctor!" mama mumps said.

"Certainly? Does Erik like Mama? No, hahahaha. Erik likes Erni the same, hahahaha."

Mama's getting goiter, Papa deliberately teased her. The woman walked into the house, stomping her feet, making Papa and Gideon grow worse.

"That's what it is, Yon! If you still can't move on from Thalita, still love her, still need her, yes pursue! Don't give up before you succeed. The proof, your mom just finally melted as Papa who never gave up, right?"

"Okay, Pa. Gideon will look up to Papa. Gideon will continue to fight for Thalita's love again. Gideon will take Thalita from his new girlfriend. FREEBIES!!!"

Papa just bengong hear the determination of his son.
