Now, the atmosphere of the living room looks more tense compared to the one before. Because, now there are two guys, who are competing for special attention from Linda.
Susana awkward really feels. Both for Romi himself, and doctor Khan An.
The three of them, so confused and did not know what they should talk about. Because if one person talks about this, the other one doesn't connect.
Finally, they talked about Linda's condition only. Which they can most likely discuss. Until now, suddenly there was Danang and Della who came.
"Assynoltom..."
Danang and Della, together say hello.
"Wallaikumsalam..."
The three people who were in the living room, also simultaneously answered greetings from Danang and Della.
"Mas Romi, mbak Linda, ." said Danang, while greeting Romi. His own sister-in-law, only then Linda, and the doctor Khan An who had not been two know.
"I'm doctor Khan An."
Doctor Khan An, feeling confused by the arrival of Danang. He introduced himself, because Danang was in distress, without naming him. Just like the time of shaking hands with Romi and Linda.
"Ooo..."
Danang's mouth was breaking into a pattern, understanding the situation in the living room of his house.
And so is Della.
Previously, he was just as confused as Danang. But now, she realized, what really happened to her brother.
That was why, his brother had given him a message earlier, so that the two of them could come to this house as soon as possible.
Finally Danang and Della both introduced themselves as well, then sat in the living room. So that their sister, both Linda and Romi, do not feel awkward anymore, because the existence of doctor Khan An between the two of them.
After talking for a while, Khan An's doctor finally found out the truth about the situation.
He realizes that, his presence at Linda's house, is not actually expected by anyone. He interrupts Romi and Linda's meeting.
But instead of giving in and leaving to go home, doctor Khan An actually noticed how the interaction between Linda and Romi.
He thought about this man who was his competitor. And Linda herself, seems welcome even though sometimes it looks awkward too. Maybe because of her existence, which made Linda feel uncomfortable. Because they have to ignore their existence.
Finally, doctor Khan An knows himself. So he has to go.
He was ready to go home first. With a reason to visit a clinic that has just invited him, because there is an offer to practice there.
But Romi knows, if it's just an excuse. Katena's impossible, there's a job interview at night.
However, when Khan An's doctor really left, Romi again thought that, most likely, the owner of the clinic only had time at night. So I just met with doctor Khan An. To discuss the work issue.
But Romi is also grateful, because with the departure of doctor Khan An, he could have many opportunities to talk to Linda without feeling awkward.
Moreover, Danang and Della also knew the situation and conditions. So that the two of them immediately agreed to go inside, to meet both his parents and Erli.
"Lins. Brother purposely came here, to have a serious talk with you."
Romi deliberately did not continue his sentence, because he wanted to see the reaction and response from Linda.
But apparently, Linda asked nothing. He was waiting for Romi, to continue his sentence again.
"I... I want to talk about our relationship." Romi again ended his sentence, and focused on linda.
Unfortunately, Linda was still silent, and did not ask questions or want to know more.
This makes Romi hesitant, to continue the next sentence.
Linda let out a long sigh, before finally saying, "Linda listened to what Brother Romi wanted to talk about. So, Linda won't wait for him."
Hearing Linda's words, Romi finally smiled. Because apparently, Linda still wants to pay attention to herself.
By breathing out first, Romi continued the conversation he had stopped. Expressing his intention and purpose to return to the village and meet linda tonight.
"I'm sorry if what you're doing is in a hurry. But Big Brother just doesn't want you to think that, Big Brother isn't earnest with this big brother's intentions."
"Sister wants to marry you Dek."
Deg deg!
Linda's heart was racing. There was a lot of feeling in his heart right now.
That warm feeling was again present in his heart. Her feeling of buying flowers.
But a second later he felt uncomfortable. Because the thought of his uncle Romi, which would definitely make him even more headaches later. If you have to meet his uncle often.
Especially if Romi has gone to a big city, and they have become part of a large family.
Linda turned deathly pale, with cold sweat coming out just like that.
Seeing how Linda's condition suddenly changed, making Romi feel worried.
"Sir. Deck Linda's okay?" ask Romi to panic. He had no idea what was going on with this young widow.
"Drink this first Deck!"
Linda received a glass of warm tea, which had been drunk by Romi himself. Because, there is no way Romi should go in and ask his sister for water first, to drink Linda. Because it will be much longer.
After finishing drinking warm tea, Linda asked Romi to regulate breathing.
"Pull a deep breath first Deck, slow down. Then take it out slowly."
Romi gave instructions to linda to regulate the breath.
Linda also obeyed the instructions given by Romi. And it's powerful enough, so he can control himself.
After a while later, Linda's condition was already quite stable.
"What do you feel on Deck?" ask Romi slowly. She didn't want to make Linda feel depressed anymore.
"Sorry, Dek. If my arrival and my statement seem sudden, and also pushy."
Romi actually said his apology to Linda, because he thought that, Linda's condition was suddenly like that, a result of being surprised at her statement earlier.
But actually Linda shakes her head several times.
"No Brother. It's not because of Brother. Linda... Linda is there, there is something Linda is afraid of" Linda explained in stammering.
He could not tell the real reason why he had felt such fear.
Linda has not dared to reveal her past, which she thinks is not worth telling. There is shame, disappointment, sadness and anger, if you remember that.
And Romi understands Linda's condition, if there is a sense of trauma with marriage. Because he thought that, Linda was scared because of her marriage with Ferry in the beginning. Which he said there was no part at all.
Romi doesn't know the real story yet, about Linda's fear.
But he was patient and waited for Linda to tell him herself.
Romi finally called his two sisters, Danang and Della, to go out and talk with them. So that the atmosphere does not get back tense.
According to him, Linda needs a relaxed atmosphere, so as not to feel back the fear that had been.
