"Ma, can Araz get Mama's help?"
That morning I asked Aunt Sukma who had prepared breakfast in the kitchen. It was a bit awkward actually, calling the woman Mama. However, he asked me to call him Mama like Kanya and Putra when he called him. With hope in the future, I will actually call her Mama.
"What can Mama, Raz?" asked the woman with a smile similar to Kanya's. I just realized, from which Kanya inherited a smile as warm as the sun that morning.
"What if we make a welcome party for you, Kanya. I don't know if he's going to be happy or vice versa, but I think we need to surprise him. I mean, Kanya's been so stubborn and didn't want to go home. Then, he could defeat his own ego. I want to give Kanya some kind of reward for what she has achieved. But, this can't work without Mama's help," I said trying to be as careful as possible so as not to hurt Aunt Sukma's feelings. However, the reason Kanya did not want to go home was also one of them because of the woman who had given birth to her.
"Mama actually thought the same thing anyway, but isn't it too late for surprise love now?"
"If I don't think so, Ma. Also called surprise. It's not his birthday, is it?"
The woman smiled in response to my statement. "Thank you, Raz," he said later.
"Thank you for what, Ma?"
"Om Eka told Mama that you persuaded Kanya to come home. Mama doesn't know how to repay your kindness."
"Mama gave Araz enough blessing just as much as Kanya," I chanted making the woman's laughter wider.
"If that's for sure, son. Where there is Mama freelin prospective ghost kayak you. But really, Mama is curious, what makes you like the same? He is a lot of efficacious, stubborn, do not want to be arranged, likes to be alone, it's so jutek again. You can stand the same nature of him that way. Moreover, he does not like sok jaim, of course from the beginning has also shown his attitude is not to you?"
I look forward to thinking about Aunt Sukma's words. Find the right reason to answer the question. There's no way I'm saying that this whole thing started with a damn kid's curse that just casually donated his heart to me, right? If I told you about it, this story would never be finished and repeated from the beginning.
"Many things made me fall in love with Kanya, Ma. Maybe one of them is jutek, stubborn, sometimes also effective nature that makes me fall in love with Kanya."
"Are you sure you're going to withstand all of Kanya's qualities like that?"
"Yes sometimes, if the stubborn nature of his head appears to make me really want to pinch him anyway, Ma. How else, baby. Not necessarily others like Kanya."
Especially if you know the truth he only pretended to be strong-witted all this time. As if able to pass all obstacles alone, but the original is not that strong. How can I do not accompany him, Ma. Maybe it's just physically that Kanya looks like Mama, but in many ways you guys are completely different. Even though I only saw some of his injuries, I didn't feel like I could let him get hurt more than what he had been feeling.
"Thank you, Raz. Mama had been so selfish with Kanya that she had to separate her from her loved ones. Mama knows this will be difficult for you too, but thank you for choosing Kanya. She is not a perfect woman, but Mama is sure, she has a good heart more than anyone you may ever know," said Aunt Sukma tearfully. As a result of our chatter, the cooking activity of the woman became disrupted. Instead, I took out a knife and helped continue Aunt Sukma's work while continuing to chat. "If you may know, do you not mind the status of Kanya and the Son who ... ."
Aunt Sukma paused her sentence. I knew what the woman meant without needing to continue her words. The corner of my lips is expanding.
"Araz can accept however Kanya's past is the same Son, Ma. It is not easy for the Son or Kanya. Sorry if Araz's words are presumptuous, however they once had a sweet story and had to let it go. But Araz is also convinced, slowly they will also be healed."
I pat the back of Aunt Sukma's hand to give her strength. I know my words were insolent - although I didn't mean to hurt the woman - but at least, Aunt Sukma must know that secretly the Son and Kanya are still expecting each other even though they insist on denying it. Especially Son. They just don't want to make each other hurt, especially the people around them.
I quietly took a long breath. As much as possible so smooth that Aunt Sukma did not realize it. There is pain that I cannot hide even though the Son has invited me to talk that he will really let go of Kanya. That's why my heart is getting hurt. I can't do anything but be selfish while still asking Kanya beside me. As much as possible to heal the wound of the woman to be completely just looking at me.
Yes, even though he has looked at me, but I can still see the shadow of the Son in both of his eyes. Perhaps, he had once shared a sweet story with Arez, but it was all just a seasoning in his love story with the Son. However Kanya will continue to run towards the Son, only the man can make her forget everything. Although in the end it is precisely that which leaves the most deep and painful incision marks.
"In the morning it was sad, "" said a voice breaking the bubble of my daydream floating in the air. The son had changed clothes after a morning run and approached us in the kitchen.
"Hey, did you finish running in the morning? Have you sorted out all the needs you want to bring for the tour? Later tonight go straight to the hotel?" tanya Aunt Sukma hid the sad feeling that had approached her face.
"Ma, the one-on-one tank. The son is confused as to how to answer." The man laughed in response to the mother's question. "Yes, the new son just finished running and taking a shower. It's done already. And, the Son has packed the things that must be brought. You see, tonight after the gig will go directly to the hotel. Tomorrow we have to leave at dawn, he said."
"Where are you going?"
"Well, isn't there a story? I'm going to play tonight, Bang. Ngawalin tour East Java. Tomorrow proceed to Lamongan, continue to several other cities. Come tonight. Let me know my cool look."
"That's why tomorrow isn't home?"
"It shouldn't be. Why the hell?"
"Gue plans to surprise Kanya tomorrow. Kind of like a welcome party. I've asked Damar, tomorrow he's the same Almira can help, but your time is not there?"
"Oh, huh? It's easy if that's it. I can say the same to others to back off the schedule to leave. Let the effect really make a surprise, I'll go to the hotel later tonight and just come here tomorrow morning. How's it?"
"What's wrong with your schedule?"
"It's okay, Bang. Lamongan this decket. Not for two hours. It's easy about that. Anyway if until Arlan knows and he's not involved, it's going to rage him. He's more like Kanya's brother than I am."
The words of my son surprised me. Whether he is aware or not, he indirectly admits that he is not ready to be a brother figure for Kanya.
"Thanks yes. I hope he's as happy as the surprise we made."
"Let's relax, Bang. Don't hesitate if you need my help. We will also be a family in the future. Isn't it, Ma?" The son asked for the approval of Aunt Sukma who replied the nod of the woman.
"Now it's part of the family."
My smile expands. Although stuck in this complicated and never simple love story, at least I am grateful to always meet good people.
