Enmeshed in the Love of a Married Man

3. Bizarre

Ayu peeked from the window of the stall to the front of the street where Adi was receiving a call from the woman named Sarah.

"Okay, I'll be home tonight." Adi Say.

Ayu looked so curious, who exactly was Sarah. Why did Adi have to shy away from him just to receive the call.

Adi then re-entered the house after Ayu finished talking on the phone. Ayu who was standing in the living room made Adi startled.

"God... You made it a hanger..." Adi Say.

"Mas, who's Sarah?" Ask Ayu to the point.

Adi fell silent, the look on his face turned anxious. This made Ayu even more suspicious.

"Why is quiet? Answer me, who's Sarah?" Ask Ayu again.

"Di's.... At... Her... My sister."

"Sister?" Ayu looked in disbelief.

"Yes... He's my dear brother." Reply Adi.

"If it's a sister, why would Mas avoid me answering the phone from her?"

"Yeah... Naturally, if you accept the phone does not have to be in front of you."

"Yes is natural, and that's Mas's right too. I'm not who she is. But all I was wondering about. Since the beginning of our acquaintance, Mas never mentioned about Mas having a younger sister..."

"Mas sorry dear. Don't make it dong." Adi tried to hold Ayu's chin.

But Ayu quickly brushed it off. In Ayu's heart, he still doubts if the woman named Sarah is the sister of Adi.

"I don't sulk, I just want Mas to be honest with me about all the Mas family. Because we are both adults. This relationship must have clarity. If Mas does not intend to be serious, we better stop before too far Mas. After all, I am a widow of the lower class, while Mas is a bachelor who comes from the upper class. But if Mas really intends to be serious in this relationship, then Mas will not keep anything from me. Especially about the family."

"You don't talk about that, Dong. This is serious about you. Our relationship is still very new, but Mas is sure to drop Mas's choice with you. You never care about your status. Because the love that Mas has does not look at the status of affection." Adi rubbed Ayu's cheeks gently.

Ayu was silent, she just stared at Adi with sparkling eyes.

"Oh yeah baby, I have to go home to town today. Son Mas.... Eehhh meant Mas, his nephew Mas, his son Sarah was sick again. Now she's in the hospital and it just so happens that her husband Sarah is abroad again. So I have to take care of everything." Adi.

Ayu continued to stare at Adi, this time with such a sharp gaze.

"You don't believe the same?" Ask Adi.

Ayu remained silent.

"Dear, believe the same. That's a real pity to you. I promise you, when Mas comes back later, Mas will tell you everything about the Mas family. Or better yet when you arrive in the city, Mas will send you a message about all the Mas family along with their respective photos. So that later when we get married, you won't be too awkward because you already know them." This time Adi pokes Ayu's nose which makes the girl finally smile.

"Well, that's dong. Gini is beautiful!" Adi Seru.

Ayu's face was getting blustery.

"If so, I'll go right now. So that we can get to the city sooner." Adi Say.

"Mas, don't finish the food first?" Ask Ayu.

"Don't love, I'm afraid of coming tonight."

"Yes, if you want that."

"Greetings to Mom and Arya. Next week we bring souvenirs from the city."

"Hmmm.... Be careful on the road."

"Every Boss." Reply Adi.

Adi then went out of the house, while Ayu went straight to the dining room to clean up the food that was there for fear if a stray cat came and ruined everything.

However, Ayu finds Adi's car keys on the dining table. Ayu quickly ran outside the house, trying to catch up to Adi.

"Maaaassa....." Shouted Ayu while running from the dining room and saw Adi still standing in the yard of the house seen receiving someone's phone.

Ayu did not think with Adi, why when he was called he just left?

Though Ayu just wanted to return the car keys that he was on the table earlier.

'Well, he doesn't want to lock this car again?' ask Ayu inwardly.

Ayu grumbled to herself while continuing to chase after Adi. Ayu called Adi once more, but she did not turn her head in the least.

"Yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!" Call Ayu but she still did not turn her head in the slightest.

"Mas Adi why? Did he not hear my screams?" Ayu muttered while scratching her head.

Ayu kept running after him Adi.

Ayu finally manages to stop Adi, as she almost gets into the car.

"Juice!"

"Shock it up, huh?" Ask Ayu with her sweet smile.

Adi shook his head to look at Ayu.

"Not to be surprised, I have no power!" Ayu chuckled.

The sound of Adi's phone ringing again made him aghast in shock. Moreover, the call shows the name Sarah.

"Why?" Ask Adi in a slightly rough tone.

The phone kept ringing.

"It's Mas...."

"What's? Say quickly?"

The sound of Adi's phone kept ringing nonstop.

"Haloooo...." Adi yelling. "Let's wait, I'm on the road." Shouts again.

"Buck...." Call Ayu.

"Samma...." Shouted Adi looking desperate.

Ayu became so surprised. Instantly Adi's face changed pias. He immediately disconnects the phone and turns to look at Ayu and hold her hand. While Ayu herself, her eyes were already watering.

"Darling, forgive me. I really....'

"It's okay, Mom. I-i understand. I just want to get the keys to Mas's car that's missing in the dining room." Ayu said as she handed the key to Adi's hand.

"Darling...."

"I understand Mas, now go." Reply Ayu rubbed Adi's cheek even though it was actually in Ayu's heart, he was so injured because he was yelled at earlier.

"Okay, baby, go first. See you next week." Reply Adi.

After Adi's departure, Ayu immediately returned to the house and headed for her room. He should have helped the mother at the stall. But, right now his feelings are in chaos. He thought about everything that had just happened, starting with the woman named Sarah, until she was yelled at by Adi.

All of that inexplicably reminds Ayu of her late husband.

"Mas Bayu, was my decision to open my heart to Mas Adi wrong?" Ayu asked by looking at the ceiling of her room.

Ayu remembered how patient Bayu, her late husband was during a relationship with her. Starting from the time of having a lover relationship since 1st grade High School, until married for two years until finally Dani went first to face the Divine.

"Ah, am I wrong to compare Mas Bayu with Mas Adi?" Say Ayu again.

In a dream, he met his late husband who was wearing a black suit.

"Mas Bayu's...." Ayu.

The late husband just kept staring at Ayu with a flat gaze.

"Buck...." Call Ayu again.

Bayu smiled, then said, "be happy..."

After that the figure of Bayu instantly disappeared. She screamed hysterically from inside her room. It made his mother panic and immediately ran to Ayu's room.

"Why Nak?" Ask Ms. Ida.

Ayu who immediately woke up, could only shut up.

"Nightmare?" Ask Ms. Ida.

Ayu shakes.

"It's a beautiful dream, Mom. Looks like Mas Bayu has given me away, ma'am." Ayu.

One week later, as Adi said, he returned to visit Ayu. The relationship between the two is getting closer. Ayu even loved Adi very much. This time the two spent the day going to the mall.

Snacking or going to the mall is one of the activities of residents in urban areas spending weekends or holidays and that is also what Ayu and Adi do. The two went to a mall located around the city where Ayu lived.

Both arrived just in the afternoon. Although still daytime, the mall looks crowded visited by residents, although not crowded booming. Most of the people came with family. There are also those who come with friends who have not met for a long time, or with girlfriends, and some who come alone. Ayu felt so happy, because for the first time after five years she went back out for a walk with a man she loved.

They both started down every corner of the mall. And at the time of entering the lunch hour, the most crowded place visited by visitors is definitely the food court or one floor in the mall that is devoted to various types of restaurants that sell food. Some visitors are willing to queue to try to eat at the restaurant that just opened or the restaurant is indeed a favorite.

"Would you eat first?" Ask Adi.

"Don't eat at home." Reply Ayu.

"Continue now what? You really don't want to buy clothes, bags, shoes or jewelry?" Adi Tawar.

Ayu just shook her head and pressed her arm against Adi's hand.

"We wash our eyes. Intar if there are items that can attract my attention, then okay to buy." Say Ayu sumringah while walking again with hands that are interlocked with Adi.

Adi smiled, he continued to stare at Ayu who looked so cheerful walking by his side.

'Very rarely there are women like him who, despite being offered shopping, immediately refuse so.' thought Adi.

In addition to the food court, other places that are commonly visited by clothing stores, although not as crowded as the food court. Especially for women, like Ayu, she prefers to go into a cosmetics store. However, entering the stores does not mean consumers will buy goods there.

In fact, Ayu prefers to look around, even just trying on clothes or cosmetics. If it doesn't fit, Ayu won't buy. Alternatively, Ayu just tries as a reference or just makes sure the item will be available until a certain period of time.

Ayu and Adi continue walking towards another corner of the mall, a place that is also quite crowded visited by other visitors, namely coffee aka cafe. Most of the visitors come to buy drinks and food, then sit down to talk to relatives, open their laptops and work, or just look for plugs to charge the gadget battery.

"Are we just going for a walk without buying anything?" Ask Adi again.

"If you want to buy something, buy it. What did I forbid?" Ayu asked back.

"Not so, I mean I want to buy something for you."

"Hmmm.... Then buy me...." Ayu seemed to think.

"What?" Ask Adi curious.

"Buying tickets to a movie at the cinema. Keep buying popo corn same drink. How, can you?" Ask Ayu.

Adi smiled and immediately walked towards the stand of the pop corn seller after first buying a ticket to watch a movie.

They really have fun like a couple of young people who just feel dating. Spend time watching the cinema, after that playing in the indoor game rides.

It was late in the afternoon, Ayu finally felt hungry. The two decided to eat at a restaurant.

"A lot of paper?" Ask Adi to Ayu who is so greedy eating spaghetti.

"Yes nih Mas, let alone the film was discussing his food continues. I'm drooling." Reply Ayu.

Adi smiled at Ayu who looked greedy eating the dish in front of him.

"Oh yes, by the way, how's Mas' nephew doing?" Ask Ayu.

Instantly Adi pecked after hearing a question from his lover.

"Mmmmmmh.... She's...."

Ayu looked at Adi by raising her eyebrows.

"Why Mas?" Ask Ayu again.

"He's better, baby." Reply Adi.

"Thank God."

Adi continued to look at Ayu, there was guilt in her every time she saw Ayu.

Adi unknowingly falls into the charm of Ayu's widow. It only takes a few seconds for her to fall in love with Ayu. And now that love is growing bigger.

"Darling...." Call Adi.

"Hmmm yes, my!" Reply Ayu then sipped the mango juice in front of him.

"I love you, love you so much." Said Adi who made Ayu's cheeks immediately blushed red.

"Why did you suddenly say love like this?" Ask Ayu.

"Because I love you so much."

"I'm also a Mas." Reply Ayu smiled.

From the outside of the restaurant, accidentally a friend of Adi named Dani, saw Adi who was eating inside the restaurant together with Ayu.

"That's Adi, right?" Dani said to herself.

Dani continued to observe the two couples who were seen laughing inside the restaurant.

"Mistake no mistake, it's Adi." Dani squinted her eyes.

His gaze turned to the figure of the woman sitting in front of Adi. Adi seemed to be feeding the woman with a bowl of ice cream.

"It's definitely not Sarah. Who is that woman?" Say Dani again.

Then the curious Dani, then approached Adi's desk to dispel her doubts.

"Daddy..." Dani's Saying.

Adi looked evil and immediately stood up.

"Who is he, where is Sarah?" Ask Dani.

Adi immediately pulled Dani's hand to take her away from Ayu.

'Who else is that man, why else is Sarah's name being talked about? Who is Sarah?' ask Ayu inwardly.

Seriate.....
