Buttered

Chapter 46

Along the way to his mother's grave, Tristan remained silent. So did Sarah. For almost an hour, they passed by silence. Even Sarah was very reluctant to turn her head towards Tristan. So did Tristan who chose to continue to focus on driving.

According to Sarah, the view outside the window is more fun and entertaining to see, than the face of Tristan who although handsome but makes it high blood. Outside Sarah smiles at some interesting things, such as a traveling ice cream seller whose merchandise is crowded at the buyer's attack, or a small shop on the side of the road with a lot of motorcycles parked in front of him. According to Sarah, the store is definitely a lot of buyers.

And once in a while Sarah's face was also gloomy, seeing an old balloon trader who was just pedaling his bike slowly. Or see a cat that looks skinny dry is walking by the roadside with his love.

And when the car driven by Tristan passed through the elite housing which means soon to reach the funeral of Tristan's mother. Suddenly Tristan's phone rang. Tristan's phone rings, but Tristan ignores it after looking at his phone screen and knowing the name of the caller. Though the mother's personal number, it is certain that she is not her father, Richard, Rendra, or other secretaries in the company.

But this time Tristan pulled the car over. This of course makes Sarah reflexively turn her head towards Tristan. And it turns out that Tristan also reflexively turned her head towards Sarah. Instead of a heart-wrenching drama of looking at each other, Tristan glared at Sarah.

"You shut up, don't talk! if you need not breathe!" tristan exclaimed before receiving his phone call.

Sarah who heard that immediately clenched her hands, but she did not care and immediately looked away from Tristan again. Sarah would rather see the new gravel arranged, but as the sidewalk floor that was next to Tristan's car that was stopping on the side of the road.

"Hello baby!"

Without even looking at Sarah already knew who had contacted Tristan. But Sarah did not care at all, according to him it is more fun to count ants passing on a branch of a tree that is on the side of the road near the window glass.

Tristan even accidentally turned on the speaker of his phone, no matter what his intentions. Wanted Sarah to hear all her talk possible. Sarah doesn't care at all.

"Hello Tristan baby, you're not mad at me. I'm sorry, I just called you now. I'm so busy, you know tomorrow is the opening of my new boutique here. You know how happy I am, my dream finally came true Tristan. I have a boutique in Paris! it's pretty amazing, isn't it?" shanum asked from across the street.

Hearing Shanum open a new boutique there was no smile at all on Tristan's face.

"That means you'll be there longer. And won't meet me?" tristan asked who sounded very sad.

Hearing Tristan's soft and sad tone, Sarah immediately glanced a little from the rearview mirror toward Tristan who was indeed his face was looking sad at this time.

"Dear, comeon. We've talked about this a hundred times. Once I succeed, I will come back to you! you have to support me dong, what aren't you proud of? have a lover of a beautiful woman, and also a successful businessman and designer is also internationally famous?" shanum asked which made Tristan smile softly.

"Then congratulations on your new boutique, but do you remember that I'm getting married at the end of the month?" tristan asked who hoped Shanum sympathized about it even if a little.

"I know, but what power. Than you in the scribble of the family card, right? It's okay baby, I'll still be two or three years back there anyway. You marry your father's choice. You'll just have to find trouble with your wife to divorce her!" shanum said so casually.

As a woman, Sarah felt that Shanum had no feelings and empathy at all. Now he knew that the two people who were talking on the phone were indeed one server. Maybe that's why they've been in a relationship for years. They are both selfish and think only of themselves.

"Alright, take good care of your health, don't forget to eat. I'll call you back later, love you Tristan!"

"Love you too!"

Sarah shuddered to hear the sweet words that Tristan said to Shanum.

'It turns out it's more horrible to hear this guy talk sweet than angry!' inner Sarah.

Tristan then save his phone back, actually he was a little sorry also turned on the speaker phone earlier. He meant to show off Shanum's affection for Sarah to make Sarah realize that she did not mean anything to Tristan. But everything was not in line with Tristan's expectations.

Sarah back to the window, Tristan also immediately returned to the vehicle.

Upon their arrival at the funeral, even the master Arya Hutama first hugged Sarah rather than Tristan. And it makes Tristan who is still badmood because Shanum's phone was getting badmood only.

When Arya Hutama invites Sarah to approach the tomb of her mother Tristan, Sarah is given a scraft by Samsudin. Sarah wears it for the veil and walks with Arya Hutama to Melati's tomb.

The tomb is so beautiful, with jasmine flowers on the right and left sides. Even the flowers were so clean and white, it was also very fragrant. From this alone Sarah could see how much the master Arya Hutama loved his late wife.

"Mel, this is Sarah. Our second daughter-in-law. I chose her for Tristan, she's a simple, hardworking, honest, polite and very independent girl. She's Mel's great woman, she's babysitting her 24 sisters in a parlor, with the help of only three middle-aged women. Although she was able to leave the home to live independently, she chose to stay there to take care of her younger siblings. My choice wasn't wrong, was it Mel?" asked Mr. Arya Hutama with a voice that was getting louder and louder.

Sarah could see that Mr. Arya Hutama had his eyes start to glaze over. Sarah understood, surely Mr. Arya Hutama wanted to cry, but was still reluctant and held him because he still thought Sarah did not need to see it. Sarah also thought of something, if she considers Arya Hutama as her father and considers Melati as her mother, of course Arya Hutama will not hesitate anymore not to cry. Sarah also said.

"Assalamualaikum Ma!" said Sarah who made Arya Hutama so moved.

Arya Hutama even immediately hugged Sarah and shed her tears because of her longing for Melati. Samsudin who witnessed it to come shed tears in the corner of his eyes. But the man sitting near Arya Hutama even looks more upset. Who else, if not Tristan.
