He's Not Mine

51. Worth the Rest for Benny?

“If Benny gets married to Resti, Imam wants to be mutated where Yah?” ask the commander who made the entire room immediately speechless.

“You want to stay here what moved Mam?” now the commander asked me.

“Where to place country, I'm ready Ndan!” lightly answer.

“Ab in a really great country!” colonel Teguh gave two thumbs to me, I only replied with a wry smile. Previously to Lampung what included his intervention as well? gapapalah, kok blessing, the evidence can get to know many good people there, including also with the beautiful Lita.

Koh Benny began to look more relaxed chatting with Resti's parents, stay me as a mosquito repellent here, sit sweet while ngeting and eat nuts. It was getting late at night, but the conversation had no sign of ending. Drowsiness, has evaporated many times but no one responds, where there is no coffee anymore. The conversation is still hots. Want to go home first but do not bring your own vehicle, the fate of the nebeng. 

“Mam, Priest!” koh Benny woke me up sitting asleep next to him. I opened my eyes, ah apparently still at home colonel Teguh. 

“Kasian wait until bed, go home, it's night,” said the commander.

I rubbed my eyes, straightened my back, there was still pain when I slammed Hashim this morning. “I came to it already night Mom, if it is still night, it means play less long,” I said while spending the tea that stayed a little.

“Yes already, accompany me to play chess first!” colonel Teguh's words made me raise my head, Dad? do I talk to you about Benny?

“Gantian Mam, I lost. Now you play!” koh Benny said.

“Gak, geez. I gave up, tired of me, sleepy, had fallen out too,” I gave up before colonel Teguh pairing pawns on the chessboard.

“Fall where is Mas?” ask Resti. Once asked, attention-grabbing.

“So slammed a boy,” I replied.

“Kok can? So damn your men!” the commander commented.

“Tadi again sparing taekwondo, her in-laws Resti came berserk, so my concentration broke, crumbling now.”

“So his body hurt from falling right? Not because of mom?” Resti taunted me, not funny, but the others laughed instead.

“Ya done it, it's night. You guys just go home. Tomorrow play here again yes,” said the commander.

“Iya Bu,” replied koh Benny.

In the car I lay down again, quite the difference in travel time to sleep.

Suddenly koh Benny woke me up, “already up Mam!”

“Oh, have you arrived? Thanks ya!” I got out of the car, but it turned out that Koh Benny also got out of his car and followed me to the front door of the mess.

“I slept here ya Mam,” pinta koh Benny.

I noticed the seriousness on the face of koh Benny, “tumben, let's go in!”

Koh Benny follows where I go in the mess, maybe he is not used in a narrow room like this messku, in this mess I live with four colleagues who are sometimes occupied sometimes they sleep outside.

“Mam, said you sleepy, haven't slept?” ask koh Benny.

“Iya, soon to go to bed. This is the pillow, I just changed the pillowcase,” I replied.

“Mam, Resti is really good, beautiful again, his family is also good. How do you want to take him off for me anyway?” koh Benny was still curious.

“Yes I feel inappropriate for him, koh Benny faster. That was aja.” I went back to sleep and then turned my back on him.

“Exactly Mam, I feel there is something you are covering up! Please tell me!” koh Benny is moving my body. I woke up and sat down, “I have already hurt because of being left married with him, my disappointment has overflowed and can not be returned again!” my clear.

“But after her husband died, you can go back with her!” added koh Benny.

“But obviously he chose koh Benny kok, we've proved it together!” I said upset and disappointed.

“Not necessarily Mam, she is still so considerate of you!”

“She is very kind, beautiful, considerate, from a distinguished family, I do not lie if I am still amazed by her, but this disappointment has been lazy to be close to her again!”

“Give him affection and loyalty, surely he will repay what we have given him. Try deh!”

“You are not good especially with him and his family, but ultimately he left you too!”

“Yes that's because I wasn't there at the time, besides she had the chance to marry Irvan. From now on, never let your guard down, never give him a chance to turn his back on you. Take care and always pay attention!”

“From earlier I thought, why are people as good and beautiful as Resti how do you let go for me?”

“Because I know, you can have him. Love him with all your heart and soul. I'm sincere if you have him.”

“Please be honest, what makes you feel inappropriate for Resti?”

“If Suryo says, I'd better find a virgin. Ha ... ha ..”.

“That's free? Just said Suryo, if your heart says?”

I rubbed my face and closed my eyes, “I'm not a rich man, Resti chose Irvan because Irvan was a treasure. In my opinion, only koh Benny is able to rival the wealth of Irvan.”

“So she's matre?”

“Gak,” answer me quickly. 

“Then what?”

“Me and colonel Teguh put simplicity first, but Irvan has familiarized him with a treasure his father never gave him.”

“Yes the same, I don't want to be squeezed with a girl matre!” koh Benny's face began to change.

“Koh, I ask for help. Love Resti with all my soul, I want him to be happy. I don't feel like I can make her as happy as Irvan did. Rest assured that he will not extort the wealth of koh Benny. I know him very well. What I do only wants the best for you. Koh Benny my good friend, there is no way me and my friends are plunging koh Benny on a bad person. Resti is a woman who once filled my heart, surely I want to give her the best, like koh Benny.”

“You sure of what you said?”

“I'm sure wholeheartedly!”

“What if Resti still keeps your same likes?”

“This heart we have, we manage it, therefore never give him a chance to think of me. Give her affection until she forgets that there is someone like me here.”

“Try convincing me again that he won't squeeze my treasure later,”

I was silent, confused and looking for the right answer. “Which is clear what Irvan has from the past until now is still intact, Irvan never lacked or went bankrupt. What Resti wants must still be within range of koh Benny lah.”

“What does he like best? Who spends the most money?”

“Shirt, jewelry, make up. She is not the soul of Koh's army, her ideals want to be a model. The point of freedom outside the military.”

“Yang really?”

“That became Irvan's attraction to Resti, he gave freedom in choosing. He is fashionable! Pantes really become a model.”

“So he wants to quit the army?”

“Don't know if it is, which obviously he likes the fashion world is Koh!”

“Suit competing with my ex-wife!”

“Nah, at least much different style Veronika same Resti, difference Resti Islam!”

Koh Benny nods his head, “Resti is prettier than Vero, especially if he wears a veil!” koh Benny smiled to himself and then fell down.

“Keep koh, won't buy a cat in a sack. Resti is a good person and from a good family. It could be that Resti is simpler than Vero, I know very much the same attitude and nature,” I look towards koh Benny, but who was invited to chat turned out to be asleep, sleeping what fainted nih people, but, fast is his sleep.
