At the Crossroads of Love

115. Meet Raga

Gatra already knows why since returning home his wife always looks moody. Apparently Pia had already given the news of what caused Ara moody.

Gatra just wanted to know from Ara's own mouth. So Gatra waited until Ara was ready to tell a story.

Waiting to arrive at the bed Ara did not also tell what happened to him last afternoon. Ara flipped her body unsettled. Gatra approached and lay down next to him.

''Mas.''

''Hem. Why sweetheart?'' Gatra twisted his body facing Ara one hand was used to concentrate his head and the other to tidy up Ara's hair that covered part of her face.

''Ara want to see Raga?'' ask Ara carefully.his nosy dentures make the Gatra field chest as a canvas for drawing free patterns. I don't know if Ara's doing anything up there to wake up. Gatra braked withholding desire. But responded differently by Ara who thought Gatra would not allow him to meet Raga.Salah many times Ara told Gatra that Raga only past his future only with Gatra male companion selected papa. Until death separates Ara will always be with Gatra, except Gatra who wants to release Ara. So Ara will sincerely accept parting with Gatra. Ara who is sure to stay at the side of Gatra because the man also assured him that there will be no other woman who became the owner of his heart other than Ara. Why should it be banned, not Gatra said that Legowo accepted Ara's past. Ara immediately withdrew her hand and turned her back to Gatra. Ara realized which husband allowed his wife to meet her past.

''Can't be yes, Mas.'' Oozing Ara like there is Isak heard.

''Dear. Why?'' Gatra did not realize that his moans were responded to differently by Ara.

''Ara only wants to see Raga once, Mas. Gea said that Kak Raga will volunteer for health to Palestine, and that's all because of Ara. hiks hiks.''

''No other meaning Mas, Ara was already in love with Mas Gatra.That's why Ara nolak Kak Raga. The taste of Ara to Raga Kak at this time is a pity because pity is not like it used to be. It is impossible for Ara to force herself with Raga just out of pity. But if until Ara's refusal brings Raga to a dangerous area and nothing happens to Raga, Ara will feel more guilty for the rest of Ara's life.''

''Honey.'' Gatra shook Ara's body which shook as it held back the cries.

''Unfortunately Why?'' ara's body was held to face her again.

Ara said to turn her body back to face Gatra. His nose blushed his eyes. The pregnant innate feelings of Ara become more sensitive and very spoiled to Gatra.

''This one time yes, Mas. give Ara permission to meet Raga.'' Ara pleaded again.

''Indeed Mas did not give permission to Rara to meet Raga?''

Ara looked up at Gatra. '' It was groaning like it was holding back a sprain.''

Geez, honey, because you woke up Otong, Mas is not strong.

''Oh it's because Mas again nahan so that Otong does not wake up.'' Misunderstand him

''Is that the Otong wants to wake up? kan Ara has not yet done anything.''' plainly Ara replied. Gatra so pat jidat.

''So can Ara find Raga?'' he repeated his request because Gatra had not said yes.

''Someone said love to Mas?'' trying to ngeles yes even though he knows Ara certainly will not do anything with Raga but the fear of losing Ara remains. The taste of Ara who used to have been forced to leave could be coming again if you constantly meet. Gatra was very happy because only this time he heard Ara's confession to love him. Hopefully not a word inserted to just persuade that his request was granted.

''Ihh... Mas.'' Ara frowned and Gatra chuckled

''Yes, I can, I believe in Dedek's mother. Only Mas want to hear again if his mother Dedek is already in love with his father.'' Unwittingly Ara is indeed a slip of expressing love to her husband. Ara closed her face with both hands. Still embarrassed. Geli Gatra looked at his little wife's papah.

'' I heard the problem from Pia earlier. If according to Mas Raga's departure is not entirely wrong Rara. Maybe he needs a new mood.''Gatra tried to convince what happened and what Raga would do was not his fault.

''Ih...basar ya Pia loyal so spy Mas, whose best friend is Ara why should report to Mas?'' murmured Ara and made Gatra chuckle.

''So how? when will you meet her?'' Gatra still teased Ara. Ara who was pouting instantly nodded. ''But not for free.'' so gurgling Gatra nosed Ara.

''Look Deck, Father same calculation Mother. Emm... Ara doesn't know where Raga lives. Last time at the cafe had nanya, but no one knew and already a week Kak Raga has not sang anymore at the cafe.''

''If He lives with his mother and one house with Clarissa and Ettan Mas knows his house, will he be escorted there?''

''You.''Ara's quick reply

''Rara dear actually before the accident dear and Raga what happened?'' finally Gatra kepo also with Ara's past.

Ara also began to tell stories from the beginning he went to the mall with Gea until there was a dispute and met Typhoon.

he eventually fainted after drinking water from the Typhoon.

''Who is a Typhoon?''

''Friend Kak Raga when Kak Raga became a wild racing jockey Typhoon who likes to cuddle the betting money. Said Kak Raga Typhoon does not like that Kak Raga stopped racing and Kak Raga so good. Maybe that's why he wanted to do a damn about Ara.''

''It was also complicated living Raga that time.''

''Yes. Poor Mas. actually lived off the streets his father never noticed him. But papa loves Raga very much. And Kak Raga is also very similar to Papa.'' from the story of Bunda Gatra also already know a little story of parents Raga's birth who divorced.

''So envious of Raga.''

''Why'''ri?'' confused Ara

''Iri because Raga had once felt Papa's affection was Mas.''Ara's hurry smothered Gatra's mouth.

''But Papa's choice to be Ara's husband.''

Next day

''Auntie who was speaking behind him.'' Gatra who was behind Ara protested because he felt ignored.

'' Yes intentionally.'' Nurmala's goda. ''Waduh emang yes, you guys are a matching couple the only beautiful one is handsome. Come in all, coincidentally again complete team Aunty.''

They walked hand in hand into the mansion where Raga now lives.

Ara also felt happy that now Raga was in the midst of a family that loved her very much. Mama Raga is a very kind and loving woman at least that's what Gatra told her. Although Clarissa and Ettan are not biological children, Nurmala's affection is no different than that of a biological child.

''Try to see us the arrival of a special guest.'' Nurmala's loud voice when he reached the middle room.once all his children turned their heads and

DEG

Raga did not expect that Ara would come to her and this was delivered by her husband.

''Yuk come sit them down for a while after breakfast or you guys want to have breakfast first?'' nurmala bargain because Ara and Gatra came in the morning.

''We have breakfast Auntie.'' answered Gatra could not possibly also make it clear that Ara since pregnant never want to eat breakfast because it will definitely be spewed back.

''bang, what wind is there? but I have to get ready to go to Bandung. How dong Bang Gatra came suddenly like this.'' said Clarissa after greeting Gatra.

''There is no wind just want to send Abang's wife.'' replied relaxed Gatra seems Clarissa understand.

Ettan and Papa Danu also paid because they had to be ready to go to campus and office.

Only Raga left who had no reason to leave the two guests.

''Sitting Ra. Bang.'' Raga allowed Ara and Gatra to sit down.

Nurmala took a step back to make a drink.

''Honey Mas take something first yes in the car.'' Gatra reason alone so that Ara can freely talk to Raga.

Silent

There are only Ara and Raga.

''Sir.''

''Hem.''

Pretty awkward Raga just left alone with Ara. His heart could not yet fully classify Ara with others.

''Why would Raga go to Palestine? sorry Brother, because Ara kak Raga must.

I beg you not to have Lo's tears come out for me Ra.

''Do you know where I am going to Palestine?''

''Kemaren Gea told Ara. Raga wants to volunteer for Palestine. What is Ara Kak?''

''And Lo believes Gea's story?'' ask Raga. So Gea made Ara come to him. It was furious that Gea was no longer a figure known in the past while still together in Magelang. Even with his own best friend he was.

Indeed, Gea was angry to Raga with the decision of Raga who suddenly will go to volunteer to Palestine. Raga did not bother him, who he played banned.

''Gea has changed Ra, she is no longer Lo's old best friend. What he said to Elo wasn't all true. It's true that I want to go to Palestine, volunteer there but not alone Ra. We are on a humanitarian team from Indonesia. I did not want to go there to take up arms let alone join the war. Obviously not. We are health volunteers. Lo know Kak Clarissa also joined in, only he was from the television station news team where he worked. More importantly Mama has also given permission and fully support the will of her children.So all is not because of Lo. Don't be sad, huh? You know since meeting Lo and bokap Lo I've promised myself to be a better creature. Maybe this is one of my ways to do good.'' at length Raga gave understanding to Ara.

''But Kak over there is dangerous.''

''Gue will be careful Ra. There's our soldiers there too who will take care of us. In addition, the prayers of those who love us will also take care. Pray for me Ra.''

''Ara's prayers are always the best for Raga.''

''Have not cried anymore thought your husband I was doing Lo again.''' want it Raga wipe the tears on Ara's cheek, but he realized it was impossible.

''Before I go, I want to go to Magelang first. You want what nitip?''

''Aglang?''

''He asked papa for his blessing. However, he still bokap I'm Ra.'' Raga's relationship to his papa also gradually improved Nurmala did not forbid Raga to see his papa. Especially now the condition of his sickly father.

''My father is not like before Ra, he had a stroke. already can not walk normally.''

Ara was shocked to hear the health condition of her papa Raga. What about Maya and her mother. It was not Ara's business, so Ara asked about them.

Nurmala who had been accidentally stuck in the kitchen came out carrying two cups of warm tea.

''Ayuk Darling drunk first from earlier chat continues to be thirsty. Where's husband?'' pretend to ask

''I'm here Auntie.'' Gatra appeared after it felt time for Ara to talk to Raga enough and she would immediately bring Ara home. His heart was not strong watching the wife linger with the former.
