Due to Forbidden Desire (Suami for Ayunda)

Awareness of Ms. Erna

The morning as usual. Ms. Erna went out to shop at the greengrocer down the street. For two days now he was burdened with how agitated Alan was to respond to his company that was destroyed in a matter of days.

Alan did not think that the influence of the name Samuel was very large. His company did not even get a single order to the point that the whole machine was forced to stop production.

Instead of paying the unemployed. Alan laid them off and paid off his salary with the compensation money given to Dimas the other day.

My son's life fell apart after Dika divorced from Ayu. Oh God. Is this a reprimand. If so, I regret being a bad mother.

"Be careful, Mom." Sapa Bu Broto while gently pulling the arm of Bu Erna who almost tripped on a stone.

"Thank you Broto."

Ms. Broto noticed the change from Ms. Erna two weeks ago. Ms. Erna stayed home more and refused to roar as usual.

"Sama-sama Ma'am. Want shopping?" Ask Bu Broto kindly.

"She wants to shop."

"It's rumored Alan's home now."

"Yes Mom. I'll stay alone so Alan accompanies me."

"Thank God. One of the children should accompany his mother. How's Dika doing?"

"His wife was pregnant but she was fired. Maybe Bu Broto's son can find a job?" With all humility, Erna asked the question. Though previously he was very arrogant and always favored his children.

"God. I'll ask you later Mom. Why did he get fired? He became a director."

"Maybe karma ma'am." Sontak Bu Broto stopped his steps. He pulled up Ms Erna's arm and escorted her to a PKK post.

"Don't talk about anything, ma'am. If you hear how people. Maybe it's a disaster to beat someone up." Since long ago until now, Bu Broto always cared for the family of Bu Erna since Ayu became the wife of Dika.

Although Miss Erna's response was very other. But Ms. Broto unceasingly reminded Ms. Erna of her sometimes outrageous deeds.

"I feel the disaster came since Dika divorced Ayu. Just a few hours married, the feeling was already felt when Dika's Wife did not allow me to approach. They don't get along now, ma'am. Often argue just because of trivial problems. Not like when I was with Ayu. The boy never once said anything rude to his husband and to me even though I used to say something rude to him."

Bu Broto nodded in affirmation but did not have the heart to light up. Ayu is the only reason why Ms. Broto often meddles in the affairs of Ms. Erna's family. Because he knows, Ayu already has no parents and certainly does not have a place to complain.

"Maybe this is just a reprimand from Bu because Ayu is indeed a child who does not care. I know for myself he never received the advice of another man even though Dika was out of town at the time. That's why I regret the actions of Dika who could leave it for another woman. Maybe God won't accept it because I'm sure Ayu won't have a vengeful nature."

"He even greeted me at the depot. She's now happy, getting prettier and I just realized it now." All day long Ms. Erna thought about her mistake. Wanted to repeat time but it was a wish that he thought was very selfish.

"I can't promise Mom. Later I will ask about the job vacancies for Dika ya."

"Thank you, Mom."

"Either. Neighbors need to help each other."

The two continued on their way to the vegetable. For the first time, Ms. Broto was able to have a warm chat with Ms. Erna who used to be rude to her.

As planned, this week Samuel took Ayu on vacation to the waterfall destination. Although his hand was still wearing bandages, Samuel did not want to break the promise.

The same place with different people. Ayu was brought back to remember for a moment the bitter memories at the waterfall. When with the heart Dika told him to withstand the pain on the skin of the feet that peeling.

This time it felt different. The sandals that Ayu uses are very comfortable. Added to this was Samuel's happy attitude of not clutching his hand tightly along the steep road.

"It hurts?" Samuel asked a few times. Want to make sure if Ayu's legs are still strong to step.

"It's not how steep Bee is."

"You should have accepted my help."

Too crowded. Shame when in a cradle.

"It's also coming."

"Hm yes." Five minutes later, the two arrived at the waterfall. The atmosphere was so crowded that Samuel found it difficult to find a seat." You've been here." Samuel asked while rubbing a stone so that Ayu could sit there.

"Either."

"Who else is Bee."

"Maybe a friend."

"My only friend is Mita and now it's not."

"There's me. You don't need friends." Samuel gently rubbed the top of Ayu's smiling head staring around.

"The girls are watching you." Ayu caught the sight of a group of girls playing around in the waterfall. They were seen stealing glances at Samuel. Actually not only them, because since then Samuel has become an attractive object for women.

"Let's get down." Samuel tried to divert the conversation. He felt that the discussion was not important.

"So they can see what's inside you." Samuel looked over with a smile. Replying to Ayu's gaze that started to stab.

"To enjoy this place."

"We did. What a pleasure to soak with so many people." Ayu Ketus protest. It was not only Samuel who did not want his body exposed, because he also did not want to see many women enjoy the beauty of Samuel's body shape.

"Then how do we enjoy this place?"

"We'd rather walk around than have your eyes tarnished for the girls." Ayu stood up and dragged Samuel to follow her.

Does he not understand. If it's been a long time that my feelings have been petrified. I don't have a taste for seeing any girls let alone them. Ugh.. He's jealous, I'm so happy.

"You should wear Bee's mask."

"This is the last time we're here. The atmosphere is very uncomfortable. Not only am I being noticed but you are also."

"What attracts them."

"That's what I'm feeling too. What attracts them? You're the only object I want to see."

I went back to being selfish. This is the result if it is too spoiled. I became uncontrollable in my attitude..

"Hm this is the last time we're here." Answer Ayu lirih. He only realized that it was not only Samuel who was the center of attention but himself as well.

"Today we should enjoy it. It's already come. Doesn't the world belong to us Babe."

"Then. How do I get rid of those people?"

"Please don't exist."

"Where can Bee."

"Of course you can." Samuel lowered his head, raised a little of Ayu's chin and briefly kissed beside her lips. Of course Ayu panicked, she distanced the face of Samuel who was now chuckling.

"It's a public place, my God."

"Don't you always forget yourself when I do that." Samuel answered with a mischievous look.

"But not in public."

"What harm. We're married."

"I didn't think you were a very ignorant man. Always laugh at me like that." Samuel smiled wryly while nodding. Not everyone knows his true nature. He refused to show it because he was uncomfortable.

"Trust. I only act like this when I'm with you."

"I think you're a guy who doesn't like to joke." Although from the beginning Samuel looked friendly, but Ayu did not expect that Samuel had a fairly high side." You're a good forger too." Samuel chuckled again. He justifies that.

"If I don't force it, how can we be together."

"That means you don't believe in destiny?"

"believe. We cannot be found without God's intervention. But, I can't wait so long that I have to run fast to get to that fate before someone comes first."

Ayu realized that maybe Samuel's coercion was part of that fate. The coercion led Ayu to walk towards the right man. A man who not only loves his strengths but also accepts his shortcomings.
