Casanova Brief of Widows

Chapter 36

At half-three in the afternoon they came out of the pool at once the restaurant. They pray first before going home. Caca looks exhausted and withstands drowsiness that is very painful if not immediately put to bed.

"Back there's a Rum pillow, I'll take it for Caca's sleep first."

Newly styled backseat comfortable line for Caca sleep. The little boy without warning just knocked himself down on the chair. Bai just shook his head while smiling a little.

"Thank you Bar made Caca happy today" Arumi said shortly after the car drove.

"Yes alike. I'm so happy to see you guys happy. Believe it or not, I've changed Arumi. You can test me your way if you like."

Arumi was silent. He doesn't know what to answer. Because his own mind and heart now can not be invited to cooperate. He can't think of anything anymore.

Bari himself was also thinking about Caca's words before returning home. Earlier, before they came home, when Arumi went to the toilet Bari had asked Caca about those who he said were being chased by people.

"Mother said it was crazy. Om-om just now also want to hold my head. But my head was immediately embraced by my mother. Keep mom saying. Don't touch my son, you don't admit it yet." Caca stopped talking for a moment to remember what came out of his mother's mouth. "I then forgot, Mom said what. All I remember are the words of the cheating and sorry child. What is an affair child?" ask Caca at the end of the story.

"You're not yet the time to understand. Later when you are an adult you will understand everything without being explained. Keep this for yourself. Don't tell my mom if I ask this. Mom will be angry with you. You don't want to be angry with me, do you?"

The little boy just nodded slowly.

Is the man who met Arumi and Caca Arumi's ex-husband? Infidelity's child? Is it possible that her ex-husband misunderstood her while Arumi was pregnant? Did Arumi really cheat until she got pregnant. But it feels impossible if Arumi does it especially until pregnant. If he did that it would not have been possible for him to be traumatized until now. I have to find out for myself what Arumi's past was and what her ex-husband was.

"Broken hearts are evil, Rum" Bari said, breaking the silence.

"meaning?"

"That broke one man, which affected everyone."

"Talk to the point, don't make me think."

"Your heart is broken by one man, but it is affected by all men. Not all men are like your ex-husband. Can't you hit all these guys flat. Then you decide to close yourself and your heart from the hustle and bustle of romance that is actually beautiful in the eyes of everyone. Maybe in your eyes too. I'm sure your heart hasn't died to accept or feel what love is."

"Who said I beat all men equally? I shut myself down doesn't mean I do. No Bari, I just want to rest. You don't know what happened and what happened I went through to get to this point. At the point where I can stand on my own feet, I can fight the trauma that once lay in me. It's not all that easy for me. It took me a long time to be what I am now, and I don't want to just because you came up with the thing you call love, and I just take it for granted. I can't Bar. You know what the hell about my past is?"

Only this time Arumi spoke at length and it was about what he really felt. It looks like Bari managed to make Arumi little by little open to him.

"I just came into your life Rum. But a little bit I know what your past is. I know how your fight got here. Even though I wasn't on your side at the time, I knew so you weren't easy and I knew it was heavy. Healing the wounds of the heart takes a long time. Sometimes we need help from others to heal. One of them is by opening and letting in the man who is struggling to make you and your child happy."

"Strong women are not afraid of injury. You can get here, it means you are strong and you are the woman of choice. A sincere man like you will not likely bring new wounds to you. He'll try to heal you Arumi."

"Are you talking about yourself?"

Bari chuckled, "do I look like that? I'm sure you can judge how I am without me explaining. A Bari who is looking for a girlfriend just looking physically without comfort can fall in love and struggle to such an extent to this second on a woman who even I myself do not know how her face shape. Do you think I'm messing around?"

"You can just be curious about me. Most men are like that. Once it has got it, lost curiosity and also a sense of struggle. It's already the law of nature and no one's against it."

"If I was just curious, I wouldn't have involved Arumi's parents. I'm not coming to your house. If I was just curious I wouldn't involve Caca either. I love him as much as I love you. Ask your mother and brother. I've got a green light from them to snag you. How are the rooms?"

"Until this second, I haven't seen where you struggle."

Whahuh? Haven't seen my struggle? What is wrong with his eyes? How could he say so lightly?

Not long after, they reached home.

"Let me take Caca in" Bari said as Arumi opened the passenger door.

"I'll take it straight to my room. I know his room." Bari asks for permission and only gets a nod from Arumi.

The atmosphere of the house is still quiet, it seems that Arumi's mother has not returned from traveling.

"Mommy hasn't come home Rum?" asked Bari while sitting on the terrace chair with Arumi.

"Not yet, but soon to be home."

"I'm going home, isn't it? You should rest too. Don't go to the mosque if you're tired. Don't force yourself to do something if it harms you later. Take care of your health, I say yes. Greetings to mom. Assalamu'alaikum."

"Vaalaikumsalam. Thanks again, Bar."

Bari only nodded small with a smile that adorned her lips. Whether Arumi sees it or not, let it go. Inner Bari.
