Grasping Taste

Silence of the Word

"What's up, Mom. If it's about work, I've given Nina the power to take care of it." Aruna said with a smile, she tried to be as friendly as possible.

"About your husband. Are you happy with her?" asked Abimana, answered Aruna with a smile and nod. She doesn't want to talk to people much, about her husband, especially with a man who has had special feelings for her.

"The man who cheated on him will usually repeat it again. "Abimana's sentence paused.

"Aruna.." the baritone's voice called out his wife's name in a cold tone. The man was already standing two meters away from where Aruna and Abimana were standing.

Sabda looked at the two people with guts. His eyes were fixed on Aruna who was standing near Abimana.

"Sorry, Mas Abi.I have been picked up by Mas Sabda" Aruna said as Sabda walked closer. Sabda's face was flushed red with a glint of anger in her eyes.

"Look! Stop approaching other people's wives!" said Sabda with a sharp look towards the man who was currently smiling cynically.

"If you hurt Aruna, I don't just go near her." replied Abimana.

"But take it from you!" abimana whispered as Sabda pulled his collar.

"Mas Word..." Aruna held the hand of Sabda. He didn't want to have a pretty embarrassing commotion and free spectacle.

The Word releases Abimana with weight. If not for Aruna, she would have beaten up the man who was currently smiling cynically at her.

Without speaking again, Sabda walked out to his car parked by the side of the road. At first he thought Aruna was at the seller's shop until he chose to park his car outside the resto area.

Aruna quickly followed behind the Word. The man was seen getting into the car and slamming the door hard enough.

Aruna got into a car whose engine was still dead. Aruna glanced at Sabda's hand gripping the steering wheel until her handbooks turned white.

"Say you want to buy rujak uleg?" tanya Sabda after such a long time, her voice was made as flat as possible. They were in a car with a dead engine.

"No" replied Aruna, she knew the Word was still angry.

"Why?" ask the Word without looking at him. The man still straightened his eyes forward.

"It's not desirable." welcome Aruna still stiffly.

The word just sighed, then got out of the car and walked over to the cart of the seller rujak ulek.

Seeing Sabda walking towards the seller rujak uleg, Aruna came down and approached her husband. He actually still wanted it, but seeing the angry Word, he decided to undo his intention of buying uleg rujak.

This afternoon was very hot, Sabda again walked towards the car by carrying two packs of uleg rujak followed by Aruna who continued to follow behind. They were still silent, not a word came out of the two.

Every now and then the Word sighed, breaking down little by little the emotions felt in the crown. Then, one hand stuck out pressing the on button on his car audio.

Aruna just bit off the tip of her fingernail. Aruna's habit whenever she's anxious, worried and groggy. He's relentless to finish off the tip of his fingernails.

Sabda grabbed Aruna's hand, grasping it to stop his wife's actions. Though his gaze was on the road ahead. He knew what his wife was doing.

Baby I never will

Go leave you

I'm breathing for you

Trust me

Make you happy

I'm breathing for you

Duhai.my lover

The word singing quietly follows the song verse that is now playing. Aruna glanced at her husband, even though he was singing but the man's face seemed flat and reluctant to see him.

Along the way they don't talk to each other. It looks like the most luxurious house among the other ranks of the house is getting closer.

The car stopped right in front of the house. Aruna immediately entered because he had not performed the Dhuhur Salat, while the Dhuhur time would soon be over.

"Mas, is Salat Dhuhur already? " ask Aruna trying to open the conversation. They were on the second floor.

"It is." answered the Word flatly. In fact, the man went straight into the study.

Sabda decided to work at home. He didn't want his time to go back and forth on the road.

Aruna looked at Sabda with a feeling I don't know. The woman chose to run, Salat Dhuhur first, after which she would attempt to speak with the word after her husband came out of the study.

After the Dhuhur Salat, Aruna chose to make a cake while waiting for the Word. Even though he was feeling lazy, he still tried to make a brownie. Sometimes she also turned to her husband's office, but the door was still closed.

The fragrant aroma of chocolate wafted so sharply that Aruna could not wait to enjoy it with Sabda. The woman who had now moved the cake to the plate was still trying to melt things down.

But until four o'clock, Sabda did not come out of the study. In Aruna's heart still left a sense that was quite obstructed, he felt Sabda blame himself for his meeting with Abimana.

The woman who was already sweating decided to take a shower first and

Salad Ashar. After that, she could wait for her husband with a calm feeling of having carried out the obligation.

"Mas, at the dinner table there are brownies" said Aruna. It turned out that Sabda was already in the room. The masculine face looks fresher, can be seen if the Word has finished the Ashar Salat.

"Yes, later. There's still work." answered the Word then walked out of the room.

Aruna looked at the back of the man who was walking out and disappeared from her room. He knew, although Sabda answered him with a slightly long sentence but the flat face of Sabda made Aruna sure that Sabda was still angry with him.

After the Ashar Salat, Aruna tidied her hair and swept a little make up on her face to make it look fresher before exiting the room. The woman who now wears a long dress without a headscarf was bermahan down one by one stairs and chose to sit in the dining room to wait for the Word.

"Why am I such a guilty person?" muttered Aruna as she was still waiting for the Word until five in the afternoon the man did not also come down. At first he thought Sabda wanted to taste his cake. But, the man went back inside the study.

For almost an hour, Aruna was sitting in the dining room with brownies in front of her. At the table it is also still lying ulek rujak that has not been touched since this afternoon.

Tired of waiting, Aruna finally moved from her seat. He brought the brownies he had made and threw them into the trash tub that was behind the house.

"Why was he dumped?" ask Sabda. The man was already standing near the dining table with a confused face.

"Not good!" aruna said with a sigh, but she had not tried one bit. It felt like he was already unable to bear the emotions that were increasingly wanting to explode in his chest.

"Mas, haven't tried it yet" said Sabda. But, Aruna just passed by without answering the Word.

His small steps look so hasty, Aruna climbed one by one the stairs by holding back tears. His heart felt stifling. There was the pain of not being cared for at all, while he felt completely innocent.
