Fistfuls

Passing So Fast

A few days after their meeting with Alya and her husband, Indra decided to take Gita to London, because after the meeting the wife was always moody, but it's a good thing that the psychiatrist who handled the Gita can always make the woman better. Three days in a row Mbak Fen picked up Gita at home, after which took Gita for a walk in a cool and soothing place.

"Later we can discuss through social media when you are there, or if you want to be able to find an expert psychiatrist there," Mbak Fen said the day before Indra took Gita away, of course, the couple agreed.

Now they are in an iron bird that will take them to a place that might make their lives better, or vice versa. They just hope that life in this country will be better, and if they return later it will be a strong person unlike today.

Indra looked at the face of the wife who was now sound asleep by his side. Wiping the remaining tears on the cheeks of his beloved woman. Before going to bed, Gita was crying, sad because she had to part with her mother and other families. Even so he still had to leave, because if he continued to survive in this place his soul would not be fine.

"What is the main reason that makes you like this? I don't think it's just a problem we haven't had a baby yet, but what? Why don't you tell me the truth, baby?" Indra rubbed the top of his wife's head gently.

The man felt that his wife was keeping something from him, but what? Indra could not guess at all what the woman was hiding, but he was very sure the secret existed and the secret was what made Gita always slumped with her condition.

"Hopefully our departure has a good influence on us, especially for you" he murmured again.

Long enough to look at the face of his beloved wife he also fell asleep, because the night was getting late even the atmosphere in the plane was getting quieter, maybe some had fallen asleep.

Dozens of hours they had passed in the air, and, now the two are in a car that will take them to an apartment owned by Papa who was once lived by Gita and Hafidz when they were in college. Yeah, they'll stay there for a while.

At first the Papa wanted to buy another apartment in a different place and still in one city, but the couple refused, they chose to live in the old apartment.

...Four years later...

Two women were sitting quietly on the living room couch, laughing together as three little boys in front of them were fighting over toys, toys and toys, exactly two female toddlers who were fighting over toys and one boy always mediated them.

"Mom Nathan's tired, they're scrambling on." The boy complained, approaching the two women sitting on the sofa, and one of them was the mother.

"It's normal, your two sisters are like that, so understand me, he's still a kid. Nathan has to be a good brother to Aline and Alice." The boy's mother hugged the son with affection.

"Here Nathan rest first, Mother get your favorite chocolate pudding yes." The middle-aged woman who was greeted by Mother also passed, not long to come back with a plate of chocolate pudding.

"Let's eat first, play later. Aline, Alice here, son, Nathan's sister has this pudding, you want to?" the woman called her two daughters who were still cool fighting over toys.

"Mau Bun," answered the two toddlers in unison.

"Gita, thank you we always take care of Nathan during my work, I really owe you" said Mama Nathan.

"Lucy, there's no need to thank you, we're brothers and Nathan I've taken it as a child myself. Aline and Alice are also happy if there is Nathan, your son is really like his mother, ready to help people who are in trouble." Gita rubbed her best friend's shoulder gently, grateful to have such a good friend with her.

Yes, those two women are Gita and Lucy, they are two great women in their respective versions. If Gita is a wonderful mother to both her twin daughters and Nathan, then Lucy is a reliable businesswoman in the city, rarely meeting her only son, because of busyness, because, fortunately, he had a friend who was like a brother.

The two women notice Nathan, Aline and Alice fighting over the pudding, occasionally feeding on Alice and Aline alternately so that she cannot enjoy the pudding properly.

"Alice, Aline have eaten by yourself dong, kasian Kak Nathan he can not eat properly if that is so," Gita commemorates his two little daughters.

Finally, the two toddlers said they ate themselves and let Nathan enjoy his favorite pudding.

"You have no intention of giving Nathan Luc's sister?" gita asked as she looked at the three boys in front of her who were eating.

"You kidding? Would you like to add more weight with one more baby?" Lucy asked back.

Gita tekkeh heard Lucy's question, "May as well, but my payment is decisive," he said.

Lucy clucked, she knew Gita was joking, "But not yet, Jhon has not discussed it either. He loves Nathan so much that Nathan is not his flesh and blood," suddenly Lucy's face looks sad to make Gita feel guilty for having chosen the wrong discussion.

"That's Luc's past, Jhon has also accepted you as you are, the jerk has also got his reward Luc, regret may be provided that you do not get dissolved in regret," said Gita softly, he knows how his best friend feels.

As said by Gita, Frans Matan lover Lucy and Nathan's biological father have got the reward, he had a strange illness since the past year and could only be in bed unable to adventure looking for another young girl.

"You're right, sorry it's useless all happened, now the most important happiness of two men who became the spirit of my life." Lucy smiles at her son Nathan, and imagines the face of Jhon the husband who is currently out of town with Indra, Gita's husband.

"Grandma and Grandpa duo A haven't been here yet? Or will you be visiting them soon?" Lucy switched the conversation, she did not want to remember her dark past, because now she was happy.

"My father was ill Luc, Papa persuaded Bang Indra several times to come back and take care of the company, but I refused, honestly I'm more comfortable staying here with you Luc, you're the best friend who never has two faces like them." Gita recalled how sick she was while still in her country, her dear friend often underestimated her for not being pregnant after being married long enough.

Lucy rubbed the woman's back, "Did you know this?" tanyakanya.

"Don't know Luc, you know for yourself, right? She disappeared without a trace, until now I don't know where she is, but I hope she and her little family are happy. I'm sure you'd think twice if you had to go back to Indonesia, after what Papa did." Gita stared blankly at the family room, really miss him miss his brother.

"You go home for a while, after Indra comes back later. Leave all the business here to me and Jhon, I don't mind at all" Lucy said.

Gita smiled, "Thank you Lucy, you are the best. Later I will talk again with Bang Indra," he said.

"Mother, I come if you want to go to Indonesia, I want to see what Indonesia is like" Nathan said, apparently hearing the two women's conversation.

"Well, that's fine, but Nathan has to let Mom and Dad, if they can't really come along," replied Gita.

Nathan looked at his Mommy, "Can ya Mom?" tanyakanya.

"Ask Daddy first, if Daddy ngijinin Mommy doesn't mind at all," Lucy replied making Nathan excited instead of playing.

"I imagine that if they were older, Nathan would be Alice and Aline, let alone handsome," said Gita, chuckling at the thought of the three children as adults.

Lucy laughed at Gita's words, "You're there anyway? It's a long time for them to be adults, and by then we're very old." I wonder what if he is old.
