Dimadu Tak Semanis Honey

Bonus #24

I held tight to the little body of my son, Aksa. For some reason, tonight he insisted on sleeping together. I never refused when he asked. Whenever he wants.

"Bun, today I am very happy," he said in a faint voice because I was half sleepy. "Are we going to be a happy family?" I asked with eyes almost closed.

"Yes, honey. Aksa will have Mother and also Papi. You'll be the happiest kid."

"Hm. Thank you for accepting Papi. Aksa was grinning." and she finally fell into a deep sleep. I smile. His handsome face made me fall in love so deeply.

After Aksa fell asleep. I'm down. Take a cup of tea in the kitchen. Sit on the couch and turn on the television.

"Tea." Zidan. He sat next to me. Sipping the tea I just picked up.

"Why not sleep?"

"I can't sleep. A trick?"

"Either."

He looked at me clingy. "Seez, are we going to be a happy family from now on? I'm tired of seeing Teteh always crying."

I don't know, I just pray that the path I take is not wrong. For a week I was Istikharah, a week when Lee had no news. He always comes in my dreams.

I looked back at the ring that was ringing on my ring finger. The engagement ring Lee gave me.

**

The car's coming. Me and Aksa went inside. Throughout the journey, my mind drifted everywhere. Afraid of what I imagined, I was afraid that what I expected would not be as I wished.

Considering the clothes I'm wearing today, I don't think it's an ordinary dinner dress. Even with the clothes that Aksa wears. Formally.

Waitaminute! this road seems familiar to me. "Sir, where are we going? aren't we going to dinner at the restaurant?" ask the driver.

"I don't know, Madam. I was just asked to deliver according to the address given." The answer. Ah, how can I ask this to the driver, he just works as ordered. If he knew, he would be quiet.

Turns right. We stopped in front of a house. The house where Lee and I used to live.

"Madam, you're asked to take something inside. It's the key." The driver gave me the keys to the house. Although a little surprised, I had no choice but to comply.

My footsteps felt different this time. Each step reminded me of all the memories that used to be here. Where I have to go to the mini market to pee, it's really embarrassing.

The house in which grew love between a married couple of humans. Lee, why did you ask me to come here? do you know how claustrophobic my chest remembers everything about us here.

I took a deep breath. Opens door. Once inside, as fragrant as ever remains the same as before. Only, why did the lights go out? ah, I just realized. Why is it so dark.

I quickly walked towards the light switch.

Tracks!

Lights on. And how shocked I was when I saw the expanse of rose petals on the floor. My head turned to the right and left, all filled with roses. Even I was standing on a floor full of roses.

Curiosity demands me to go deeper inside. And yes, it is all full of roses.

I saw the dining table above the pool in a beautiful flower. I intended to approach him until Lee got off the stairs, making this move stop.

"Mama? Anybody? Papa's? Zi-Zidan's? you all ...."

They only smiled at the confusion I felt.

Lee stood straight in front of me. Wearing the same suit stelan that Aksa was wearing. The aksa? yes my son is in the car. I turned around and ....

"Acts?" the boy was behind me with a red rose bucket. He smiled cheerfully.

"Siti," call Lee. "I'm sorry if all this makes you confused."

We sat face to face. Throwing each other smiles.

"I can't talk much, maybe you know that. Emm, what yes. I don't know, I don't know where to start?" Lee looked nervous. I know, he's a guy who can't string words to seduce women.

"Speak, I'll wait."

Lee looked at me. I saw him take a deep breath.

"Will you make me breakfast every morning, comb my hair every shampoo, prepare clothes when I'm going to work, accompany me when the afternoon comes and have tea together waiting for the sun to set. And ...."

"Yes, I'll do it all. I will prepare a suggestion for you and Aksa. I'll get your clothes and all your necessities ready. I will accompany you in every joy and sorrow of your life. Yeah, I want to do it all."

Lee smiled with his eyes. He is happy and also happy, the feeling he feels is the same as I feel at the moment.

Aksa, who was still a child, cheered. He came up to me, gave me a flower bucket and also a ring box. "Bun, thank you" he said, inserting a ring on my ring finger.

"Together, darling. Thank you for being a great kid."

"Am I as good as Dad?" I looked at his eyeballs in turn. Then nod. Kupeluk. I kissed many times. The precious treasure of Erlangga.

Mama and Eyang took turns hugging and kissing me. They cry haru.

"alright. Aksa sama Zidan join eyang, yuk. Let mommy eat dinner together. Aksa will buy toys. Wanna?"

"Yes, Aksa wants to." No crap to me, Aksa just walked away. Zidan said goodbye to me, he said as long as I was finally willing to accept Lee back.

"Welcome back, baby. Papa was happy because finally the family's precious treasure returned again."

"Thank you, Pah. Thank you for still loving me to this day."

Now it's just the two of us, me and Lee. We both kept quiet in silence. I don't know what to do or say.

"This house." I opened the conversation."Not changed at all. It's the same as before."

"Hmm" he murmured as he approached. I looked up when he was right next to me. We looked at each other with smiles.

"The right to change anything in this house, yes .. only the owner, you."

I smile. I was really moved, even when I was happy with Erlangga, could it be that Lee still languished from thinking about me?

"We eat?" tanyakanya.

"Yes, I'm so hungry."

Lee and I walked over a short bridge to the dining table in the middle of the pool.

Steaks. Dinner menu this time. Awkward, really. Lee and I were busy with their own thoughts. Not at all.

"You want to go straight home?" lee asked as we finished our meal.

"Yes, I'm afraid Aksa's waiting a long time."

"Yes, right. Our hero should not be allowed to wait too long."

"Relance ...."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Do you really love my son? after all he's Erlangga's son, the son who used to contribute to damaging our household." Lee stared intently at my question.

"Even I don't remember what wrong my brother did to us."

A very interesting answer for me. He had even forgotten Erlangga's mistake, which I still remember sometimes.

"Thank you."

Lee smiled. "Come, I'll take you home."

"Hm."

**

Dreettt.

My daydreams ran out as soon as my phone shook. I saw Zidan not even by my side anymore.

A message came in.

[What medium?]

I'll reply, one message back in.

[What is thinking about me? be honest, because I'm thinking of you now]

[Heart shaped eye mott]

[That's the reply?]

[How should it be?] my reply.

[Say yes, it's not hard.]

[Yes.]

[Yes, what?]

[I'm thinking about you. Zidan left because I daydreamed about you.]

[Pinter dreadlocks, yes, now. Learn from who?]

[Rubber]

[I'd also like to study with Gugel then.]

I didn't reply. Confused what to type any more words.

[Thank you for accepting me back. I promise you, I won't let you down again. You and our hero are my life that I have to take care of. From the past to the present, my heart has never changed. I still love you so much, baby.]

I'm getting confused as to what to reply. This feeling I cannot express in words. How happy I am right now, how I feel like the first girl to be proposed to a man.

[I love you, my future priest.] That's all I can tell him. I didn't expect a reply and Lee didn't return my message.

Let our hearts feel what is so beautiful at this moment. Love that should be united. Relationships that should never be separated.

Destinies. He is something we cannot avoid. The relationship separated and then reunited. Through many crossroads who would have thought, that me and Lee would be back together.

Trials come in alternately. The colorful journey I have traveled. But apparently, Lee's life was just me. There is no other color than me.
