Not for a moment I tried to return to Mahira who used to be– when it was done. Change the appearance to re-close the aurat, do not make it immediately can be completely back to patience. There are times when I feel upset and angry, no matter what.
Today, the weather is so hot. I can't linger in the garden taking care of the flowers. I decided to go inside to grab a glass of whatever it was to cool my throat.
Decide to take the juice packaging of red guava flavor in the refrigerator. For some reason, this house feels so quiet. Aldo's car is in front.
I searched all over the house until I got to the front of the room that Aldo used to use as a golf exercise, the name was silator, or what it was ....
"Sir, teach me too, dong. I want to be able to too" said the most beautiful and tall housekeeper.
Aldo did not answer, he remained focused on the big screen in front of him by carrying a ball-piercing device. Take it a swing ready to hit.
The brash woman approached, standing behind him Aldo. Suddenly his hand coiled to Aldo's stomach. Leaning his head on his back.
I saw Aldo gasp. He looked over quickly and was about to scold her service. However, his mouth instantly closed when he saw me in the doorway. He was even more shocked. His face immediately pale. Maybe he's afraid I'll misunderstand.
Without warning, I threw the remaining juice box in my hand. Right about that woman's head.
Without saying a word, I turned around and chose to leave. Aldo shouted and ran after me.
"Wait, baby! Don't be mad, please."
I turned around and shook off his hand which stopped my steps.
"Please, this is just a misunderstanding. Don't be angry" Aldo said. The fear was clearly visible on his face.
"Hey!" I shouted at the woman as she approached. "Pack your clothes now. Get out of this house! wewe gombel's bottom!"
Aldo gawking. Either he was shocked because I said rudely, or he was shocked because I didn't scold him.
"Darling ...."
"Take all these young servants out of the house. Find the mother-and-daughter. Make it complicated!"
"Yeah. I'll find the old ones."
"Don't be so old, bother later. We're the ones who take care of."
"Ready! carry it out!"
"Godhhh!"
I rushed Aldo to death and the woman who was now sobbing, asked also not to fire him.
Since then, Aldo has chosen a rather old woman to serve me and clean this house. Again the problem arises even though she is not as beautiful and sexy as before.
"Al ..." I whined.
"Why else, baby?" ask her when she's having a gym.
"That's it, Mba Marni change it again, huh?"
"Why?"
I haven't been able to explain my reasons for a maid who hasn't worked for a week. The woman appeared.
"Non, this ...."
I patted the eel, while Aldo stopped his activity and laughed out loud.
"Mrr ...."
I'm upset and ashamed of Aldo. This one Mba. Ask to make dragon fruit juice, even bring the same cardboard BH. Gusti Karim's. Huvaaa ....
"Aldooo, over!" I'm back whining. And Aldo was still engrossed in his crisp laughter. I glared and left.
"Non, is this BH the same card you want to wear?" his yell.
"Take Mr. Aldo pake!" my voice was no less loud to reply to the cries of the maid who had less than optimal hearing.
*****
For a moment forget about BH and cardboard. Because tonight, I'm invited to dinner at Mami's and Papi Aldo's. Along the way I felt restless.
I was scared and confused too. Trauma at the time. When it all started in that house.
Repeatedly Aldo calmed down, but not enough. I was nervous and scared. I'm afraid the same problem will repeat itself.
As soon as I entered the gate, I would spontaneously open the door of Aldo's car, lucky Aldo immediately stopped the speed of his car which was still running. He looked for my hand quickly and loudly.
"Dear, relax! nothing will happen. I swear!"
My heart is beating faster. It's nothing, I just realized what I just did. I'm really out of my mind.
Aldo decided to stay silent for a moment in the car. Calm down the self that no longer works. My heart, lungs and other organs are not synchronized.
The atmosphere in the car was pretty cool, but I was sweating.
"Udah ready? we'd better get in, dinner should've started."
"Hm. We better get in. Afraid they're waiting too long."
With courage, I stepped in with Aldo to enter the homes of his parents.
"Aldoo ...."
Miss Ranti welcomes Aldo hysterically, she splashes into her son's arms. I feel astonished. But yes already ... anyway they are always excited.
"Welcome, Ra," said Bu Ranti while hugging my body more gently than holding Aldo earlier.
"Come on, we've been waiting since."
Miss Ranti invited us to sit down. Welcoming a child who is like a husband and wife. Aldo and I sat next to each other.
Papi, Aldo's brother, Brother Niar, welcomed us both. While the little boy I saw at the time, is now not seen.
"The children are asleep" said Brother Niar as if he understood the question I did not say. I nodded slowly.
"Come, we eat. Papi's hungry."
Hearing the invitation as well as the order from the host, we immediately prepared to eat. Take the rice and the side dishes.
"What do you want?" aldo asked in a whisper.
"Anything."
Aldo took rice, capcay, chicken meat that has been sliced thinly with spices somehow above it. Also know bacem.
At first, the dinner went smoothly and solemnly. Is it not forbidden to speak?
"Ra, how are you doing now?" ask Brother Niar.
"Oh, thank God I'm good, brother."
"Thank God. I'm with you almost crazy, huh?"
I'm speechless.
Realize I feel uncomfortable. Aldo smiled as a gesture to me not to reply to Kak Niarwati.
"Aldo, Aldo, the time to marry a depressed woman, anyway? what do people say later? if your colleague knows, how? disgrace it ...."
"Sister, can we eat in peace?" aldo asked with a slight restraint of anger.
I still have trouble controlling myself, feeling very angry. It was like there was lava ready to gush out from the stomach of a mountain.
Aldo held my hand that was about to stand.
"Partially, he was Mas Putra's ex. Rich there is no other girl who is a virgin."
"I'm not married, but I'm not single, you know, brother!"
"Ya–"
"The fire is done. Please continue."
Everyone stared at Aldo's papyri with a bad taste. While Yanwar's brother's face was already flushed red. After Aldo's papa left, Yanwar's brother immediately got up and dragged along with Niar's sister.
I feel satisfied for that. I hope she will learn a lesson from her husband.
"I'm sorry, this dinner's fucked up." Aldo apologized to Miss Ranti. Aldo glanced at me, his eyes moving indicating I should get up to go home.
"wait. Don't go yet, Aldo. Mami still misses you. Please don't go first. Mahira, wait here for a while. Let's talk ...." Miss Ranti weld. With a pushy eye.
"Al, in a minute, yeah." I asked Aldo. He seemed reluctant, but I insisted.
Finally, I, Ms. Ranti, Aldo, her papa Aldo and also Vera who had just come, sat in the living room. We were quiet for a long time.
"Sister, get thinner. Fatty little napa, so it looks immediately if it becomes a manten."
Vera tried to melt the atmosphere by joking at me.
"It's fat soon, too, Ver. Get ready to change clothes."
We both laughed. A very forced laugh.
"But it doesn't forbid you to marry anyone."
We are silent again.
"But what Niar said has a point as well. Even papi doesn't know the origin of Mahira."
"More ...."
"Aldo, papi does not mind if Mahira is only a poor family, papi does not need property from his son-in-law or besan papi. But, bebet, weights, seedlings are important. Do you know it yourself?"
Aldo hush. He couldn't answer because he didn't know the ins and outs of my family. If Aldo knows, it's only a small part.
"But I know everything."
We're all dumbfounded. Especially me. The fear and anxiety I now feel. How broken and bad my family is, surely Aldo's papa will not bless Aldo and me.
"His Father Mahira–"
"I don't care." Denied Aldo interrupting his papi speech.
"I married Mahira, not her family. Well, Aldo knows, marriage unites two families, but the essence of marriage is me and my wife. What's wrong?"
"But don't want to have a drunk!"
"Ask his father Mahira, he would not accept Aldo as his son-in-law who both likes to drink and play women?" aldo's voice is rising. "Who he was in the past doesn't matter, Pi. After all, his parents are good and not necessarily his son is good. Not all respectable families have honorable children as well, like me. Papi himself knows not how I am, my life, my activities."
"Aldo! sit down!"
"But you know how I am, don't you? please ban, the harder papi forbid, the stronger Aldo fights."
"He always brings trouble to our family. Kmaren, what does it mean he was unconscious in the room and the Son came and carried him away. After that, where did Mahira go? does he live with a son who obviously has a wife."
"It's all a misunderstanding. Please trust Aldo this time. Mami, say dong is with Papi."
Ms. Ranti was silent with tears.
"Aldo .. sit down" I asked as I pulled his hand. Aldo sat down with a rough breath.
"Sorry before. I was born into a poor and immoral family. My father was a drunk, he was a thug with gambling and played women as his hobby. My mother didn't even want me. He seemed to sell me to the Pak Putra family by asking for a high dowry and surrender. That's the outline of my family's ugliness."
I gulped down like chunks of ice. Real hard.
"I was self-conscious enough not to ask for more from Aldo. If indeed the standard of family honor is the benchmark for Aldo's future wife, then I'm backing out."
"Darling ...."
"I only know one hadith about a soul mate, which is good for good, and he who is vile will get vile too. If good and evil think you are treasure and throne, then maybe me and Aldo are not a soul mate."
"Aldo deserves a better woman than me. I'm fine, I understand the situation." Imbuhku.
"Mahira, don't listen to papi, you just have to trust me. I'll fight for our relationship."
"No, Al. You are better off according to those who are your parents. I'm even jealous because you have great parents and love you. From the beginning I was not sure, not doubting you, but my status."
"Bu Ranti, sir, I'm sorry that I've been causing so much trouble in this family. And, Aldo, thank you for everything."
"Ra, no. Don't do this. Please give me the support and passion to fight for us. Pliss."
I know Aldo is very sad about my current attitude. I'm too sure Aldo's family, who welcomed me, will bless our relationship. In fact?
"I'll go home first, Al."
"I'm taking it."
"no need. I'm not going home. I'm ...." I don't know, I don't know where to go now.
"Sister, this is Brother's bag." Vera, who left because of fear when Aldo was angry, brought back the bag that was left behind. Ah, right too. This bag is left here.
"Thank you, Ver."
"Sister, don't despair. Stay by Aldo's side."
"Veras! get in the room!" yell papa.
"Papi, you should be grateful because thanks to Kak Mahira, Kak Aldo became a better person. Mahira's sister can do what Papi can't do as her parents."
"Verah!" his papa rose with its white face that was already like a boiled crab.
"Why, Pih? various efforts, even with violence, Papi can not make Kak Aldo a good person. And now, after Kak Mahira made Aldo's brother a useful person, Papi even wants to give Kak Aldo to another woman? Ck!"
"Ver, what do you mean?" aldo's real question represents my question as well.
"But betrothed Brother to his son Mr. Broto, Naomi, his cousin Brother Niar."
"What?" Aldo was shocked and angry. He clenched his hand. And me? i crumbled. For the umpteenth time, this heart breaks.
"Actually ...." Vera hesitates.
"Verah!" snapped papi.
"The one who gives medicine to Kak Mahira's drink, is Kak Niar."
Aldo was getting angry. He clasped his teeth until he made a sound. His hands clenched hard.
Prankk!
The table in front of us was blown to pieces by Aldo's impact.
