Dhatu is still busy with his thoughts, until Dirga riba and touches his shoulders. The woman who had never asked Dhatu smiled clumsyly. He felt something was wrong, to make Dhatu speechless because of his question. Dirga glanced at the shop staff and asked. "What's up, Ma'am?"
Dhatu hugged Dirga's arm. "Mom's gonna help me pick up baby clothes, Mum."
Dirga. Dhatu who had been able to control himself began to talk to the shop staff and dilute the atmosphere. He asked about clothing materials and also which models are neutral so that they can be worn by babies of both female and male sex. Dirga observed Dhatu in silence. She enjoyed the sight and her mind began to imagine whether she would be busier than she is now if she were pregnant. All those thoughts made Dirga's smile expand. There will come a time when they will be preoccupied with their own babies.
***
Dhatu and Dirga drive Kana to a bungalow and explain a lot about the place. The expected day finally arrived. Kana lives with them. Dhatu gave the baby clothes he bought a few days ago to Kana. The woman was silent for a moment, then her smile expanded looking at the adorable looking baby clothes. He did not expect Dhatu had prepared many things to welcome his arrival. Shouldn't have been treated as well, there was a strange feeling coming into Cana's heart.
"Rest, Kana. Bi Ina, will bring you food later," said Dhatu stroking the woman's arm. Kana stared at Dhatu at a glance. He wanted to say thank you, but his tongue felt like a joke. Between prestige and shame.
"Yes, rest up. If there's anything, tell Bi Ina to let Bi Ina tell us. If there is less, say it." Dirga was still as cold as Kana, making Kana smile.
What did he expect? The man will treat her well, just because he said he was pregnant with the baby? Ah. .. I don't think it's possible for all of that to happen. Dirga is not the man who used to be so fond of him. The eyes full of love that the man aimed at Dhatu, making Kana inevitably start to accept the reality that exists. It is time to let go of all the flavors. Wasn't it just money he thought of? Then why should he be sad just because of a man who had abused him.
"Can I ask you something?" kana said with a pleading look.
Before coming to this house. Kana had already stressed her own heart not to fall into the perfect family trap that Dhatu and Dirga had shown. She is just a wasted woman, never wanted, so she must not allow herself to be lulled into the good of both. He will consider the child in his womb as an item to get a lot of money. With that, after all this was over, Kana could leave without carrying any burden. The baby will be happy growing up in a loving family, will not live the same fate as it seems.
"What do you want?" Dirga looked at Kana sharply. He didn't want to get caught up in the woman's game.
Kana smiling. Actually, he's a guy playing this evil role. He just wanted to make peace for all of them. A week before coming, Kana had thought of many things. About Dirga, her past, and her mother. Kana decides not to be as selfish as her mother. He knows that he cannot change the past, but he can improve the future. She will be a good mother by giving a good future to her child. Yes, he realized, it's time to give up.
Dirga clucked. Why the woman asks for something by bringing up the past between them. Should have said just ask to be bought without frills a piece of the story about their story that has ended.
Dhatu took a deep breath and greeted him slowly. He knew Dirga too well, by looking at the look on the man's face, Dhatu was able to find out the frustration the man was feeling. Really, he does not like the fact that there is an old story between the two, but what can he do? You can't erase the past, can you?
"You're craving, Kana?" dhatu asked gently, trying to melt the tension between all of them. Kana smiled clumsyly and nodded slowly.
He wants a little attention even though he has no rights. He just wants to enjoy a short happiness. Kana realizes, after seeing a flashback to her past that never felt happy, if the only man who appreciates and takes good care of her is Dirga. Therefore, Kana gave up. He will try to accept the circumstances, but, he wants occasionally to enjoy what he cannot possibly have forever.
"We will buy you that food" Dhatu said with a smile, then shook Dirga's arm slowly, "Well, Mas?" he continued to look at Dirga with a pleading gaze.
Dirgund. He smiled and nodded slowly, making Dhatu's smile expand. It was as easy as Dhatu was able to make him do anything. Only with a pleading gaze and a sweet smile, then Dirga could not resist the wishes of his wife. Kana smiled faintly watching the scene in front of her. Deciding to stay close to the two made him know, if this was the consequence he had to accept. Strengthening the heart and suppressing his own feelings.
"Please, Mas" said Dhatu, hugging her husband's body tightly, and he looked at Kana, "you want to come?"
Kana quickly shook her head. He did not want to see the two together any longer. Kana does not want to be more tormented by all the regrets that gnaw away at the heart. If only, he was able to look towards Dirga, not at his treasure. Maybe he is in Dhatu's position. Laughing happily and tightly hugging Dirga's body. Have the man whole and proudly show off to the world about their love. If only he could turn back time, perhaps now, he would not drown in painful regret. But is not that the way the heart works, feels important once lost, feels like so discarded. Really, the heart is full of mystery.
"Then, we go first, " said Dhatu saying goodbye. Kana smiled, nodded and said a 'careful' word to the two.
Silently, Kana observed their backs growing farther away. Just seeing the bodies of the two close together made Kana feel so stupid with her own feelings. Both seem harmonious, he feels dwarfed to see the power of love both. Unknowingly, Kana's tears flowed, the pain hit her bath. His heart was shrouded in endless sadness, stifling his chest. A person who has never loved or been loved, never know, if love can hurt this much? Kana never knew what it was like to love before losing the love that had been loyal to her side. Kana laughed smirkily and covered her crying face with one hand.
Why does my chest feel tight?
