"You don't work? doesn't it represent every day here? take Aksa to school."
Lee smiled with a head movement answering everything with the word 'no'.
Yes, every morning the man comes to the house. He sometimes has breakfast with us. Then went to take Aksa to school, while I was just sitting at home. The sun rose a little, I cooked preparing lunch when they came home.
"Lee, this is your coat you missed." I said one day by phone.
"Let it go, please wash it all tomorrow I'm going to the office."
"Lee, your shoes are in my house, don't you realize that you're home with your shoes on."
"Aahh, that. Yes, I'll take it tomorrow. Pseudo please, yes. It just so happens that I want a meeting." He said the next day.
There was always something he was left behind. In fact, he did not take his things at all. Until it's piled up in my house. Every time I remind him he always says. "It's okay, there's plenty in my house."
This morning, I got a call from Mommy. He will come after almost three weeks of not visiting Aksa and me. He said it was a bit busy. So can not visit as usual which is only two weeks in ausie.
"Hmm." Mami inhaled the aroma of the cooking I prepared for her. "This is what always makes mommy miss home. Cook you, baby."
I smiled hearing it. Seeing Mami who is always greedy with my cooking, reminds me of Erlangga. He was also always hungry every time I ate the food I cooked.
"Why do you feel so good? open a restaurant in Ausie. Must've done."
"He he he. Mi, I don't live here. I feel Erlangga's presence in this house."
"mmmmmmm. Maki knows that."
After eating, Mommy goes to the back. I don't know what he did until his voice sounded loud calling my name.
"What's the matter Mommy?" I was a little worried, afraid something might happen to her.
"This, whose men's clothes belong to? there's no way the driver's shirt is here." Mami shows Lee's clothes that are still in the laundry place. A basket where Aunt put the clothes that had been ironed.
"That's Lee's shirt, Mommy."
"What's? lee's clothes? why is it in this house? do not-don't .. do you live in one house?" voice rising.
I shook my head quickly. " No, it's not like that Mi. I can explain everything. Let's sit down first."
"Mi, it's not like Mami thought. It's a misunderstanding. Until this moment no one has been able to replace Erlangga in my heart."
"Purely! the same words of your actions are not appropriate. My mother is disappointed."
"Mami .. please, don't misunderstand me. Lee and I have nothing to do. Please, trust me."
"Oma ..." Suddenly Aksa came. Her tears started to drip. Did he see us fight?
"Darling ... go into Om's room." I hugged his little body. I don't want him to see Mami scolding me.
"Oma, don't be angry. Papi same mother don't get angry."
"Bapy? huh! that's right. Even you taught Aksa to call him Papi? holy jeez! I really don't believe this."
"No Mommy. Not like that . let's talk about it. Don't yell in front of Aksa. She's scared."
"Listen to me carefully. Until now, I won't let you go back with Lee. I WON'T!"
"Mommy, Aksa likes Lee. He needs Dad's figure."
"Who needs a father, or you who needs a man's caress?"
"Mommy! thats enough. Stop that!"
"From the beginning I knew you were not a good woman. Were it not for Erlangga dying back then, I would never have allowed you to get married. I'm changing well now, because for Aksa's sake" he said with anger. "If you're still in touch with Lee, watch out! I will make your life regret. Remember that!
Mommy went to get her bag and suitcase out of the house.
Aksa's small hand that was shaking in fear, clenched hard in my robe.
Kupeluk. So that he doesn't feel afraid. He doesn't deserve to see all this. God, how could Mami do all this in the presence of a child?
Aksa was crying, she was crying out to Erlangga. My heart was slashed again, an old wound that was still gaping like salt water.
Mas, if you were here, I'm sure you'd protect me and our son. Aksa's scared, Mas.
