Bakoh Shoulder

Chapters 20. Bitter Memories

When going out of the house Ayu bu teacher found Teguh already in front of his house. He was surprised by the teacher at his house. More surprised after hearing the story of the teacher if Ayu fever. Hurrying to get inside the house.

"Tadi Ayu said that his father would come home before Maghrib.." Said the teacher who saw clearly the look of worry in Teguh.

"Yes mom. I usually go home at that hour. But, the job was done. I'm allowed to go home." Bright Firm.

The teacher asked for permission to go home. Firmly move towards the kitchen, making warm tea and rice porridge for Ayu. He breathed a heavy breath. It turned out that this made him not focus on working all day.

The truth is, Teguh asked for permission to go home early because his mind was always on Ayu. And sure enough, his son is sick now.

Not a fancy food, just rice porridge with warm tea that Teguh prepared to eat Ayu when Ayu woke up later. For others making rice porridge in an electric rice cooker or mejikom will be very easy and practical to do. But, for a Teguh who even a gas stove just did not have, he had to wait for the rice he cooked to turn into porridge. Must make sure if the fire from firewood is not too big which will make the pulp burnt in the pot.

All finished, Teguh make sure if the fire in the furnace is extinguished. It would be very dangerous to leave the fire or embers still burning.

"Father's home, I don't know..." Turns out Ayu is awake. He sat cross-legged on the bench.

"It's Yu, just now." Firmly touching Ayu's forehead. Still feels a little hot, Ayu's lips also look dry.

"Here is the father of the bribe.." The sound of the Strong vibrates.

"Mr don't cry.. I'm not okay."

Maybe Ayu did not know if the current strong heart Teguh did not drop her tears. Ayu looks pale, her small body can be said to be thin. When he saw his son sleeping curled up in the long chair it made his heart sliced. If he had not come home, how would Ayu be? At home alone, the body is sick, and curled up like before without anyone accompanying.. Hurriedly Teguh rubbed his condensing netra. He didn't want Ayu to see him cry.

"Suitable again.." Persuade Firm. And finally his rice porridge was little left. Just plain rice porridge given a little salt so as not to taste bland. But, behind the usual taste of the porridge is Teguh's love for Ayu which is channeled through each mouthful.

Firmly take a jacket for Ayu. When going to wear his own jacket, Ayu has difficulty due to pain in his arm. Firmly felt that something Ayu was covering up.

"Yu.. This is your hand why?" Bummer. At first glance, even think things that are not not. In the past, Nur also often experienced blue bruises on certain parts of his body. Fever, and frequent nosebleeds make Nur weaker every day.

Toughly shook his head quickly. "Tell me this father why nduk? Oh God..." Teguh was more worried considering Nur's disease could have decreased to his son.

"Sir.. If Ayu tells you not to be angry, sir.." Firmly squatted directly in front of Ayu. Hugging his son's head, he was extremely scared at this moment. The feeling of losing the one he loved now reappeared. Steady already claustrophobic just by thinking about all that.

"Father dengerin.. Nduk story, you won't be angry.."

"Sir.. Ayu's hand hurt because it was pinched by Bu Vera..." Slow but still can be caught by the sense of hearing. His eyes were round for a moment.

"Why is he nyubit you?" The eyes changed. There is anger there.

"Sir.." Call Ayu clear as Teguh walks out of the house. It's certain he'll be heading to Vera's house.

That's enough. Enough had Teguh held back all this time, if only he was the one who got the unpleasant treatment from Vera, he could still accept. But now Vera is overdone.

"Assalamu'alaikum!" The heavy noise made the owner of the house come out from inside.

"Never again do you do anything rude to my son! If that happens, it's not just here.. Even in a dream you will regret having dealt with me!" Strong left hand punched the door of Vera's house that opened perfectly. Makes Vera jump in shock.

The sharp gaze, heavy voice, and intimidating look managed to make Vera silent on the spot. He was shocked, even forgetting what he wanted to say.

Firmly stepping back to the house, before that he turned again to look at Vera who was still fixated at the end of the door. Highlight the unfriendly eyes Teguh gave to Vera.

Vera regulates the breath. Trying to eliminate the nervousness and fear that appear together.

'Jew.. That bastard_an kid already got me hit twice by people today! The fruit will not fall far from the tree, even if it falls far it must be because someone wants to take it!'

Sit in the living room.. Vera could still recall the bitter memories of ten years ago. Memories that made him hate Nur and Teguh to the lowest point. If possible he would even want to erase those memories. But, the more you want to forget the memories of the past the more clearly it rotates in his head. Scrape the good side of a Vera and create Vera with a known haughty nature as it is today.

"Vers.. I'm gonna wander.." Said the man who now took off Vera's handrails on his hand.

"Norroot? Why mas? You want to leave me?" Vera.. He stared with a wailing look.

"Sorry Ver, but our relationship cannot be resolved. You have received a match from your parents. You yourself even asked for your marriage to be accelerated. What do you think I am? It would be foolish to ask me to be in a relationship with you that has obviously already received another man's proposal. Or do you really think I'm that stupid?" Said the man who was about to step away.

"Maaaaz... I am unfortunately the same you. I'm doing this so we can live better later. You know, you old bandot who made me a match is sick! Marriages of one to two months are also wassalam. And. and we can be together again.. Because he's rich, we can live without difficulty later after he doesn't exist."

Lekaki was staring in disbelief at what Vera said.

"So because of the treasure? Ver.. Excuse me.. Before I was still thinking about leaving you, but after you said that it just made me sure. Sure to get out of your life."

Vera crying. What's wrong? He has sacrificed all his life for his love. Vera is even willing to marry an old man who may not be long to get the title of deceased in front of his name.

His heart crumbled as his man did not turn his head even though he repeatedly shouted his name. What's wrong? He sacrificed and he was left behind?

"Alright mas.. Mas may go but, remember one day when mas regret.. When I need me by your side again... I might not want to come back with you." Challenge Vera. He knew his man loved him very much, there was no way he could lose Vera forever. Right now maybe he is just angry, just look at it. The bluff must be powerful to make his man go back to begging for his love.

"I'll make sure that day never comes." With cold eyes and a flat face he uttered a sentence that made Vera's heart ache.

A few months later, Vera actually married the man her parents had arranged for her. But, the thing he predicted missed. Her husband who used to be sickly even looks healthier after marrying her. Anger, disappointment, hate piled into one.

Especially after knowing his man returned to their village with his future wife. The wife he knew as his friend. A friend who often accommodates all his complaints will now be sweet in the pelaminan with his man..

Does the name of the man still deserve him pinned to the man? A man who doesn't even look at him at all.

Vera hated those two happy smiling people! For whatever sake Vera wants to grab the bride's hair to leave the pelaminan. For whatever sake Vera wants to shout if she does not want her man to marry the pretentious woman!

His man.. Prastyo.
