For the Sake of a Consecrated Word (You Ignore the Wife's Child)
Dika And Maya
"Let me drive you home. Because I sold my car, so now we ride a motorcycle, right? " dika said to Maya while extending her hand.
Maya receives a helping hand from Dika and they walk together towards where her motorcycle is parked. Tonight Dika spent the streets alone with Maya breaking the night.
"Sir, why did you suddenly decide to marry me? "
"So please, at first I just thought I didn't want to see Arum abandoned. However Arum daughter later she also needs a guardian. Even though I'm not his legal guardian, but later I can also be his guardian if he gets married. Unlike Aksa, Aksa is a boy so she doesn't need me as a guardian" Dika said with a claustrophobic chest as she said.
"Did you miss Aksa? "
"If you say you miss you, mbak. As my son, my flesh and blood. But I can't mean for her to accept me remembering all my behavior towards her first. " said Dika again with a sad look.
They continue to chat, while splitting the streets that are still crowded with back and forth vehicles that pass.
Dika then stopped his motorcycle in front of the martabak seller. He went downstairs and ordered some sweet martabak and egg martabak to take home.
"Sir, how's Nice? Did he go home? "
Dika shakes. "Good bags never come home. I don't know where he is now. My mother doesn't care either. "
"Dik.
"what, madam. "
"In addition to Arum, is there any other reason you want to marry me? " ask Maya still with her doubts. Maya is a woman who also wants to be loved.
Dika nodded. "There's mbak. Maybe because I feel comfortable with Maya. I think Maya is just like Yesha. "
"You mean, what do you call me Yesha? " ketus Maya with little emotion, because she is likened to Yesha Dika's ex-wife.
"Don't be angry first. Let me clear. " Dika took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly. "Mother Maya was a good person, just like Yesha. Maya's mother was patient just like Yesha. Yesha stayed with our marriage for about seven years. Though I never gave birth to a living and a good mind to him. I ignored him and his son, but he stayed with me for seven years. And maybe because of my affair with Vio revealed that Yesha chose to step down, because she could not stand it anymore Maybe it is true, Women are better off hurt than betrayed." explained Dika at length.
"You're right, Yesha is a kind and tough woman" said Maya who indirectly justified Dika's remarks.
"Then what makes it the same as me. I even hurt her a lot with my rude words "Maya protested.
Dika smiled to see his ex-sister-in-law began to pull out his horns.
"Because of Maya, managed to survive with mas Bagus for eight to nine years. I know mas Bagus never gave a living born to mbak Maya properly. Even the treatment of mas Bagus to mbak Maya is also often outrageous? " ask Dika to the point,
"But I also hurt Yesha a long time ago" said Maya who still considers her a woman who is not as good as Yesha.
"Maybe because Maya was not okay at that time and vented to Yesha. "guess Dika.
deg...
Right, everything Dika said was true, When he helped hurt Yesha sometimes at that time he was in trouble with Bagus. Therefore he often followed up treating Yesha unkindly.
The two of them were silent for a while, while waiting for the crowded martabak order queue.
"Sir, can I say something? " he asked doubtfully.
"What mbak, say. "
"It's only if it's. "
Dika nodded understanding Maya's intentions. Because maybe right now he wants to dream.
"If I had married you, where would we live? I don't want to be with mom anymore, "asked Maya while lowering her head.
It was expected that this question would definitely be asked by Maya someday, before she received her proposal later.
Dika exhaled his breath rough. She knew that whoever would be her mother's daughter-in-law would never want to live with her. Especially Maya, the woman who was once her daughter-in-law. And once felt the cruelty of his mother to his daughter-in-law.
"We'll stay at my house. The house Vio left for me. What do you want, we live there? I can't sell Vio's gift anyway, because it's a grant or a gift that someone who died gives us. Does Maya want to live there?
"Is it okay if we stay there? APa Vio won't haunt us? "
Hearing a silly question from his future wife Dika so laughs widely. Until everyone looks at them. What did he say was a ghost?
"Dik.. what the heck. "etus Maya with her shy face, because it was seen by people around her.
"Mbak.mbak, where there are ghosts anyway. If Maya is afraid, later if we want to move, we will hold a study to repel ghosts. "said Dika who still holds back her laughter.
"But by the way, is Maya willing to marry me? "
Maya shook her head and it made Dika frown incomprehensibly.
"And was I still wondering? "
It's true what Maya said, she would have said if. Ah Dika is overconfident and expects a lot.
Finally, their Martabak order was ready. Dika and Maya decide to go home because the night is getting late. Poor Arum at living in his own house. Not knowing whether Dila had returned to the boarding house if not if already, Arum must have asked the whereabouts of his mother to Dila.
The motorbike that was driven had arrived in front of their boarding place.
"It's for Arum. "
Dika then gave a bag of martabak crackers that he bought earlier to Maya. Then reaching into his pants pocket, he gave two pieces of red money to Maya.
"I can only say this. Understand the old date has not been payday. " ucal Dika with the grin of a horse.
"Udah Dika, it's okay. I was just kidding yesterday. I sincerely nolongin Dila. Because I'm also a woman so know her feelings, " said Maya who refused Dika's gift.
Dika then took Maya's hand, and put the money in her hand.
"Take mbak. I'm sincere about this. If you don't want to accept it, give it to Arum. Say it to Dika for her pocket money." Dika said then he ruffled the black virtual hair.
Getting treatment from Dika, making Maya's heart warm.
"Thank you, huh, brother? " said Maya while shouting a little. Because Dika who immediately moved away approached the motor.
Dika then waved his hand, and immediately forwarded his motorbike.
Maya enters into her boarding house, by getting the temptation of the security guard.
"Cie.. mbak Maya. "
"What the hell sir" said Maya as she continued to step towards her boarding room.
He went inside, the door was unlocked. But Arum is not inside.
"Where is he? " inner Maya.
Then he went to Dila's room, and knocked on the door. The one who opened the door was Arum.
"Mother.mom, how long is it? though aunt Dila has come home from earlier. " grumbled Arum with annoyance.
"Sorry Arum, I had a little business. Let's go back to the room. "give Maya.
He also said to Dila if he brought Arum back to his room.
Arriving at the room, Maya immediately gave the martabak that Dika gave to Arum.
"Nih, om Dika was buying martabak for Arum. "
"Well, um Dika buyin this for Arum, ma'am? " ask Arum repeating his mother's words,
And Maya nodded her head in response.
Arum ate the martabak that Dika bought so greedily. Because he hadn't eaten such good food in a long time. She was reluctant to ask her mother, because she knew her mother's current financial condition.
"Arum... Mama would like to ask Arum can you? "
Arum nodded, a sign allowing his mother to ask.
"If you remarry, does Arum allow it? '
Arum stopped his meal and turned to his mother.
" Who is mom? " ask Arum then with a face that's hard to read.
"The man is not a rich man like Abhi, he is an ordinary man. Office clerk and if mom married him, we would live a simple life, not a luxurious life like Aksa. "
"Will you be happy if you marry her? " ask Arum who has begun to be able to think mature.
He will not put forward his ego, because Arum has known all along, what his father treated his mother. Even his grandmother's treatment of them. Arum can also feel what their lives are like after getting out of the house, his mother has to work a mediocre salary and has to overtime to eat tomorrow. Sometimes his mother also brought leftover food from the restaurant for them to eat tomorrow.
"Come, kid. Mother doesn't know either. I only think about you. I want us to be able to live a decent life even though it is simple.not lacking like today" said Maya who still does not know her feelings to Dika.
"Who would want to marry my mom? "
" Om Dika's.... "
