Breakfast Together



"Darling, we go to the office together!" Shouted Hafidz, as he walked down the stairs.


Hafidz walked towards the dining table, looking for Hanna who went down first. Hanna accidentally goes down first, because Hanna wants to prepare Hafidz breakfast. While Hafidz down when going to the office. Hafidz had forbidden Hanna to prepare breakfast. Hanna's unstable condition makes Hafidz always keep in everything.


"Mother, what are you doing in my house?" Said Hafidz surprised, when he saw Sinta near the dining table.


"Why are you surprised? Can't you come to your house?"


"It's not what Hafidz meant. I'm just surprised to see you at my house this early!" Said Hafidz clumsily, Sinta smiled shortly after hearing Hafidz's words.


"I'm sorry your mother surprised you. Mother is afraid you have no breakfast. So your mother came to bring your favorite food!"


"Mother doesn't have to bother. Hanna made me breakfast!" Sahut Hafidz was friendly, Sinta nodded in understanding.


Indeed, when Sinta came, she saw Hanna was busy in the kitchen. There's one ART that helps Hanna. But one thing that makes Sinta surprised. She saw Hanna was so skilled at cooking. Something Hanna couldn't have done. A spoiled and free person according to Sinta. The reason that made Sinta come to bring cuisine. Because Sinta is afraid that Hafidz is not having breakfast well.


"Hanna didn't make you breakfast. Your mother banned it, because you've cooked for you!"


"Lantas, where's Hanna? Why didn't he go back to the room? Shouldn't he be getting ready for the office!"


"Don't you know where she is?" Sahut Sinta relaxed, while shrugging both shoulders. Sinta seems to not care about Hanna's whereabouts. Instead, Hafidz looked worried, he was afraid that Hanna would be offended by Sinta's words.


Hafidz walked towards Hanna's study. Maybe Hanna's working on something. But Hanna's work space is empty. I don't see Hanna in it. Sontak Hafidz is worried about Hanna. It's not usual for Hanna to suddenly leave without saying goodbye.


"Hafidz, we're eating now. Hanna's coming soon. There's no way he's gone without saying goodbye to you. Mommy's sure she's out for a minute!" Sinta said, Hafidz remained silent. Then weakly Hafidz nodded in agreement to Sinta's invitation. Hafidz felt hesitant, for breakfast without Hanna.


Sinta serves Hafidz a meal. Like when Hafidz was living with him. Since Hafidz married Hanna. Hafidz never ate at Sinta's house. Hafidz seemed to forget the taste of Sinta cuisine that he always wanted. Hafidz chose to eat the usual Hanna cuisine. Instead of enjoying the delicious cuisine made by his own mother.


"Hafidz eat now, afraid you're late for the office!"


"I'll wait for Hanna. We promised to have breakfast together!"


"Hanna's still busy maybe. We better have breakfast first!" Said Sinta forcefully, but firmly Hafidz refused.


The two tanks did not budge, staying beside the plate. Not a single piece of Hafidz touched Sinta's cooking. Everything felt so bland to him. Hafidz just wanted to meet and have breakfast with Hanna. A hope that he could never hold back.


"Sir Hafidz, why not have breakfast first?"


"Darling, where are you from?" Said Hafidz worriedly, Hanna put on a knotty smile. He sat right next to Hafidz. Directly with Sinta.


"Sorry waiting, I went to Minah's house. Today she's off, so I came to deliver food. I checked his condition!"


"Why not take me?"


"I went ahead for a while. Just give him food!" Hanna said casually, Hafidz sighed. He sees the calmness of Hanna's unusual face.


"All right, I understand!" Hafidz final.


"Hafidz, Hanna's here. Now you eat. Of course you've missed your cooking!" Said Sinta cheerfully, Hafidz nodded while glancing at Hanna who looked relaxed.


At least Hanna was not disturbed by the arrival of Sinta. Only Hafidz felt uncomfortable, seeing Sinta at home. Hafidz felt Sinta came with the same intention. Doubting or insulting Hanna is not wrong.


"Darling, why don't you have breakfast?"


"I ate with the others. I'm sorry I didn't wait for Hafidz. I think there's a mother who will accompany sister Hafidz to breakfast!"


"Honey, why are you breaking a promise!"


"Mother already said, so you can have breakfast first. But you're waiting for Hanna. Hanna had breakfast herself!" Sahut Sinta cynical.


"Darling, you have a problem!" Hafidz said worriedly, Hanna shook her head weakly.


"There's no problem I can complain about. This feeling of abandonment, is nothing more than the voice of my jealous heart seeing the attention of your mother. There's no disappointment I can tell you. Because clearly, you never want to disappoint me. But without realizing it, mother wants to always come just for the sake of my disappointment. There's no right for me to forbid Mother to be among us. For long before I am present in your life. You fill your day with love. Sometimes I ask in my heart what kind of relationship are we in? Will my love win or will my mother's love win? Although it is not appropriate for us to compete. Because loving you is not a race, but sincerity. For you are not a prize worth fighting for, but a person worth loving with all your heart!" Inner Hanna.


"Darling, why are you quiet?" Tegur Hafidz, when he saw Hanna looking down. Sinta looked at Hafidz and Hanna. There's a feeling he can't understand. A sense of presence made him pity, even feeling guilty to Hanna and Hafidz.


"Hafidz, you need not worry about Hanna. She's fine, maybe Hanna's tired!" As Sinta relaxed, Hafidz nodded slowly. He then continued his breakfast. No more sounds or words. Just the sound of spoons and forks, all quiet.


Tap Tap Tap


"Sir Hanna, I have prepared this!"


"Thank you Siti!" Hanna was friendly, Siti nodded and returned to the kitchen.


"Sir Hafidz I'm leaving!"


"We go together!"


"No need brother, I'll go with the driver!" Reject Hanna, then kiss the back of Hafidz's hand. Hanna walked away from Hafidz and Sinta.


Braakkk


"We go together!" Shouted Hafidz loudly, just after the sound of the dining table chair falling. Hafidz felt angry at Hanna's attitude. It's not that he doesn't like Hanna's attitude. But Hafidz understood, the reason behind Hanna's different attitude this morning.


"Wait for me, don't you dare step without my permission!" Shouted Hafidz, then ran to his room.


Sinta fell silent at Hafidz's anger. As long as he knew Hafidz, he never heard Hafidz's high voice. Hafidz's person is always calm, he never puts forward emotions in everything. Instead Sinta looked towards with anger. Hanna excuses Hafidz's anger and indifference to his presence. With wide steps, Sinta approached Hanna. Sinta is like a lion ready to pounce on its prey.


"You did all this on purpose. For Hafidz to leave me!"


"Mother does not deserve to ask me, because the question is not for me but mother!"


"What do you mean?"


"I'm sorry if Hanna was being inappropriate. Didn't the arrival of the mother want to set aside Hanna. Thinking with your care, Brother Hafidz will forget my love. It is clearly visible in both eyes. I am in the heart and mind of Brother Hafidz. Not a little, Brother Hafidz forgets me. Even though you keep wanting to make Brother Hafidz forget me!"


"Hanna watch your talk!" Sinta said loudly, her hands raised. But Hanna held him back.


"You may be the mother-in-law my own mother deserves. But not necessarily that status gives you the right to slap me. Both my parents raised me. Never raised his hand to me or touched my cheek. It's not your right to do that!" Hanna said rudely, then threw Sinta's hand rough.


"Hanna you!"


"Do not exceed your limits. From the beginning I was silent and gave up. Not because I was scared or guilty. My silence is my weapon against your selfishness. If I wanted to, I'd easily get Hafidz's brother away from his family. But I will never do that, because Hafidz has the right to continue with his family. The sacrifice I made. Not for you, but Brother Hafidz. So don't think I'm afraid of you. If you exceed the limit, I will fight it!"


"Hanna, this is your true form!" Sinta said in disbelief.


"Hafidz, you heard it. He threatened you, Hanna fought your mother!" Sinta said, Hafid stared fixedly at Hanna.


"I'm going alone!" Hanna said and walked away.


"Hafidz, why are you quiet? Hanna threatened mom!"


"I'm sorry Hafidz mother, but what Hanna said is true? Hanna was firm and did not budge, Hanna whom Hafidz longed for. If Hafidz is unable to fight mother. At least Hanna can fight for our love!"


"Hafidz you support Hanna!"


"To be precise, I will always be with him!" Hafidz was firm, then chased after Hanna.
