Hello, Ex

Chapter 7

Of course, Aundy was happy to see the figure who was missed was now hugging him tightly. Most confused by what to do, Aundy could only cry in the arms of the Word.

"A—dya ... Why ba—ru dateng!" he lamented with faltering breaths, his cries could still be heard by the Word. The cry that made the Word even more regretful for letting Salma loose during this year.

"Dad, it's work. Dad's locked up at work. I can't go back to Java." Sabda did not want to tell the truth that Salma deliberately kept them both away. He must keep Aundy's feelings in order not to hate his ex-wife.

"A—father ja—evil. Ody was very much the same father." in between his cries Aundy took a deep breath, he was like running out of air supply. "Dad knows! Previously mother's phone lost—taken the same criminals. So, mama change the number. Are you confused looking for me too?!"

"Clearly! I was confused as to where else to contact Ody. Dad also misses the same Ody, until he does not eat, can not work too. But, I always pray that soon be able to be met with father's favorite daughter." Sabda helped wipe away her daughter's tears. "Now don't cry anymore, you're here."

Aundy nodded, suddenly he removed the hand of Sabda from his cheek. He remembered the mother's words. "Are you married to Aunt Hani? have you broken your promise?"

It turns out it wasn't just Salma who thought I was married again. Aundy is the same. "Ody, as long as Salma's still breathing that won't happen. Because my love for you is only for Ody and Mommy."

"But—let's dad go again?"

Sabda looked at the figure of the woman who had just walked out of the room. Salma approached the two of them. "Dad of course has to go. But it went to work. Because now I know Salma's phone number. We can be rich again. Every moment we can let go of each other."

Aundy hugged the Word. Treating the long-standing longing that tormented her inner self, she really missed her father. Only, all this time confused by how he met the father. Now he was happy to see the real Word embracing his body.

"Kok know I'm here?" Salma who had just arrived asked.

"The girl in the store, who told me."

"Ow." Salma nodded her head, understood.

"Mother, you don't want to hug father Sabda? Is mom not kangen with dad?" ask Aundy a little protest.

"So. Long embrace," said the Word too honest.

"Ih, so you've met dad! why not tell the same story as Ody? Mother when did she find? how did you cheat anyway!?"

Question after question kept interrupting. Salma was confused as to what to answer.

"Just this morning I met my mommy—it's better we go home!" lerai Word's.

"Come, Sabda's father is coming, right?"

"Follow dong!" Sabda carried Aundy on his back, while running towards the car. Make the girl scream for the word to walk slowly. When the Word opened the car door. Aundy reluctantly went down, he just gripped the strong neck of the Word.

"Ody want to sit in front?" tawar Sabda's. Though he had planned to have the front seat occupied by Salma. But for Aundy to go home with him, Sabda relented, opening the front door.

"Come on, we're home, Ody!"

Aundy shook his head quickly. "Ody don't want to get in Dad's car!" clearly with stifled emotions, his face was already scarlet in fear.

"Mas Word!" Salma, who was out on the bike, tried to prevent Sabda from bringing Aundy into the car. He forgot to tell Sabda that Aundy was still scared to get in the car. "Let Ody ride the bike with me."

"Hot, Sal! Why not be together!" sabda Protest.

Salma glanced at Aundy. "Later to tell. So you better let Aundy be with me first."

Word relented. He let Aundy ride the bike, sitting behind Salma's body.

"Sal!" The word rubbed his stomach. "I haven't had breakfast!" I made Salma shake her head.

"Yes, let's eat first."

Salma briefly cast a sharp glare towards the Word. Before finally pulling the gas lever of the motor being driven. The word that did not want to be left behind immediately entered the car, chasing the two of them.

They meet at a red light intersection. The Word stopped on Salma's left side. Along with his ex-wife's motorcycle. Instead of flirting with Salma, the man teased his daughter. Giving Aundy a lollipop.

"Fine car only yuk, same father, let your mother who is an Ody item - just don't!"

The current Aura Sabda was much different from the Word that Salma had encountered this morning. This time it was more masculine with black glasses framing his face. Salma held back laughter when she saw Aundy's reply, who only wanted to stick out his tongue.

"Item-item gini you're also hard to move on, right? Basic man!"

"You are, the use is too strong! so youes resigned!"

"Dad don't realize, there's a glass, read it first. Still iteman same mother father!"

Sabda stared at the small rearviewer beside her, doing as Aundy ordered. He occasionally glanced at Salma. "Yes, deh. The handsome ones give up!" Then refocus towards the road when the light turns green. He followed Salma who was ten meters in front of him. Until finally, Salma stopped his motorbike at the food stall on the left side of the road.

"Mother, I want to sit with you!" Aundy's permission when Salma was wiping the table with a tishu. Though Sabda himself had not sat down, the man was busy looking for a parking space for his car.

"Yes. Ody sat in front, Mother," he ordered. She did not want to face her ex-husband.

The word that had just arrived again hugged Aundy. He kissed Aundy's cheek repeatedly until the girl complained of discomfort for his actions. "Dad still misses Ody!" now it's Sabda's finger that's playing around in Aundy's hair.

"Mas, Ody's not a baby anymore. Almost eight years! shame on him you're so!"

"Yes, yeah! it's worth it," replied the Word.

Salma's foot under the table immediately kicked Sabda's leg. "It's rich in front of Ody, it's charred!" threaten her.

After groaning in pain, Sabda showed off his line of teeth. "Again, Nyai. Yes, I promise youjust the two of us."

Their chatter paused as the waiter presented the meatballs on the table. Aundy was so enthusiastic about eating beef meatballs in front of him. While Sabda is busy looking for ketupat as a substitute for rice.

"Aren't you eating?" tanya Sabda, suddenly awkward when she was about to call a darling when in front of Aundy.

"Magain diet."

A pair of Sabda's eyebrows swooped sharply. "O, yes yes—kan want to marry. You can also get your idea!"

This time Salma did not make a sound, only her gaze sharpened towards the Word. "Who would you marry? there is no soul mate."

"Just like Ody's father." The Word stretched out its spoon, intending to feed Salma. "Eat?" his orders were when Salma would not respond. "Eat, Honey! Shame, same with Ody."

Forced, Salma was forced to accept the mouthful of the Word when the meatball cut as if knocking on her tightly clenched lips. The smell of the evaporated flesh tempted Salma to gobble up immediately.

"Not on a diet! I won't have any problems with your weight going forward" Sabda said. Now take a piece of ketupat, intending to return to feed Salma.

"So my mother was bribed? Ody?" Aundy protest, when he saw the behavior of his parents.

"Emang Ody would like to? I have a father who is given sambel!" The word poked the meatballs in front of Aundy's lips.

"No. Ody doesn't want to eat spicy!" Aundy shook his head until the spoon returned to Salma.

"So, why? What's the reason Ody doesn't want to get in the car?" tanya Sabda, after successfully feeding Salma.
