Gendis, Love on the Brink of Boundaries

Sick Mom

Gendis was silent in solitude, the problem with Bram seemed simple but quite strange for him. Two different thoughts with different understandings.

Still staring at some of the melinjo leaves that had fallen because they were drying. All day he was just thinking about his relationship with Bram.

Could it be that she is too sensitive to her husband's past love? Or is he too trivial for Bram?

Gendis just sighed softly. What her husband said was not wrong. Bram has never hidden anything including his relationship with Seruni..Except when we take the girl home after work.

Gendis began to think that parting was not something that could be decided rashly. Parting means she has to get things done with the person she is currently with and start something new without that person.

But can he survive even though he feels that Bram cannot love him wholeheartedly?

If you have to be honest, it turns out that women are God's creatures who are quite greedy. If a woman says she doesn't care what her husband is doing out there, it may be partly dead.

Women are very sensitive creatures of God. He wants to be loved wholeheartedly to be noticed his existence and fulfilled all his needs.

"Ehem.. ahem. "the deheman broke Gendis' daydream.

Women who do not realize if Bram had already noticed it was senoleh. Bram smiled faintly then stepped up and sat down next to his wife.

"Since I saw you daydream." said Bram by taking his wife's little fingers to hold.

"Kangen mas like this." continued Bram with a hand kiss that was held.

"When did Bram come home? Fridays like this usually Mas Bram home until five." Gendis diverted the conversation. He was also surprised that Bram had come home early.

"It's been half an hour since Mas noticed you, Ndis." replied Bram with his wife in his arms.

" Mas had met Radit, he said, I was sick" Bram said with an anxious look on his face.

"What pain?" ask Gendis no less worried. It's been almost a week that Ms. Aaron hasn't contacted Gendis.

"Don't know yet. I did not call Mom either! I want to look at Mom, but you don't seem to be feeling well yourself." said Bram still worried.

"I'm coming, Mas." said Gendis.

"But you're sick again. "greet Bram, Gendis' face looks lethargic.

"But I'm not sick, I'm just lazy to eat. When do we leave? " asked Gendis, her face looks serious. The way her in-laws loved her made Gendis think of her like her own mother.

"Mas, the plan is to leave now" said Bram.

"Well, I'll take a bath and pray Ashar first! " said Gendis then moved from her seat.

"Ndis." call Bram undo the steps of Gendis.

"Purchase snacks, it's at the dinner table" said Bram making Gendis nod.

Bram stared at the departure of the back that was samakin disappeared with his shadow. He was actually a little worried about Gendis' health, because his wife looked lethargic and pale, especially with a drastically decreased appetite.

The reddened twilight on the western horizon takes them on a journey to Bram's old house.

Since then they just fell silent, until Pajero's car turned on the road to Bram's old house. The house that bears witness to how difficult life was.

"Past, Mas, always dreamed of going home by car with his children and wife Mas to the mother's house" said Bram. He did not have a bicycle, until suddenly Mr. Hastanto came with Bu Rahayu carrying a bicycle for him. It is still too large for children in the fourth grade of elementary school.

"If only Mom agreed with the girl, you would have had many children" replied Gendis, staring straight at the road in front of her.

Bram sighed in annoyance, as Gendis discussed back about Seruni. He knew if it would end in their quarrel later.

"Don't talk about it again if you don't want to hurt." continued Bram with an occasional turn towards Gendis who was still staring forward.

Both are silent again. Anxiety, curiosity and jealousy still continue to loom together in the sense of a woman who is now just playing her fingers. Gendis feels that the past still continues to overshadow his family today.

Pajero's car has traveled through the reservoir and now their journey is only one kilo meter to reach the house of his father-in-law.

"I want to eat grilled fish, Mas! " gendis pinta. Bram slowed down the speed of his car.

"Here! " continue Gendis.

" But you have to eat rice." said Bram while looking at Gendis. Gendis just nods.

"You're like a man cravings! " chirps Bram carelessly, while holding patiently because of Gendis' strange desire, while he already wants to get home soon.

Bram stopped his car near a simple stall that provided a menu of fish from fishing from the reservoir.

"Wrap it up, yeah! "bram Ink.

"But, it was Mas Bram who went down to buy it." welcome Gendis made Bram langsunh go down with a sense of reluctance.

"Prophe Bram, be patient! Instead of crashing again m, add fuss later" murmured Bram in heart after closing back pinth car.

Almost fifteen minutes Bram stood waiting for the fishmonger who burned the cork and gurame.

"Why so long? " gendis said following Bram who was still standing with an annoyed face.

"Burning first, baby! " bram replied, the person who was still busy burning the fish then turned to Gendis' whereabouts and smiled.

"Not use the sambel! " splice Gendis as their order starts to wrap. Bram stared at the wonder of the woman, because usually Gendis likes to eat spicy.

They're back in the car. The man who can't wait to get home returns to drive his car.

"Aren't you usually avoiding sambal?" asked Bram while glancing at Gendis who continued to smell the grilled fish. The woman seemed impatient to eat it right away.

"My stomach feels bad, Mom." replied Gendis.

"Eat it if eating it regularly. Repot if you have been exposed to stomach acid." Bram's tirade makes Gendis pursed his lips.

A moment later Bram turned his car in the yard of a house that looked deserted. Azan's voice rang out as they exited the car.

Impatiently Bram walked towards the main door of the old house followed by Gendis.

"Assalamualaikum .." said Bram who went straight in.

"Waalaikumsalam." a weak voice was heard from behind his mother's room.

Gendis and Bram immediately look for Ms. Aaron in the room. The old woman was already sitting on the edge of the bed with a lethargic and pale face.

"Mom, have you been to the doctor?" tanya Bram looks worried. His mother was rarely ill.

"It was yesterday among your Pak Lek." replied Bh Harun.

"What the doctor said. Ma? " ask Gendis who then chooses to sit next to her Mother-in-law.

"Just exhausted. It must have been Radit who told you." guess Miss Aaron, actually he wanted to keep the situation a secret so that Bram would not worry.

"How come you look skinny, Nduk?" Bu Aaron continued after watching his son-in-law since earlier.

"Bram didn't notice you? " ask Ms. Aaron. He knows his son very well, in addition to being loud and indifferent.
