Hold on or let go!

Hold on or let go!
The eps 86



Alby had just stepped off the motorbike which stopped in front of a white gated house. His hand immediately pushed the gate, after which he climbed a thin stone-shaped footing that led to the terrace of the house.


Bia's old man's house looked deserted. No one would have thought if the house had been uninhabited for a long time.


"Eh ... bojone mbak Bia anyway?", greet someone who is next to the house Bia.(Bia's husband?)


"Yes buk!", said Alby kindly not to forget he revealed his smile.


"Sopo yuk?", asked the woman behind Bia's neighbor.


(Who is mba?)


"Father, bojone Bia. Ganteng'e rek!", said the mother.


(This is Bia's husband, handsome yes)


Alby who felt in 'by the way' also nodded and smiled thinly.


"Sorry Mom, do you know where Bia is going? House is empty!"


"Oh..his wealth is in the mas stall", said the mother.


"Oh yes thank you, ma'am. So I went straight to the shop. Assalamualaikum!"


"Walaikumsalam, Iyo mas!", said the mother.


Alby also walked down the road that leads to the stall. He remembered the days of the newlyweds as they were together with Bia through this path. Intentions want to surprise the wife, but she did not meet his wife.

Meanwhile in the village office....


"Sir, the HS Group wants to meet directly with heirs who reject land acquisition. How about sir?", asked Anton's confidant.


"They're still trying to lobby?" asked Anton.


"It looks like they really want the land. You see, it's been the last two months of development projects in a temporary halt."


"You know, who's the heir?" asked Anton. Anton's confidant nodded.


"How can I persuade Bia and Sarman to agree to the land's liberation. Bia just didn't want to meet let alone talk about it like this!", Anton put his hands on his chin.


"Through mom maybe?", asked Anton. Anton stared intently at his assistant.


"You're teasing me what how? You know our relationship wasn't good with Bia."


Assistant Anton scratched his non-itchy head.


"Then, what should I say to the HS group?"


"Yes, we meet them. But about Bia and Sarman agree or not, it's let the HS itself handle."


"Good sir. Then, I'll contact the HS party immediately."


"Yes!", said Anton briefly.


"I'm sorry sir."


Anton nodded slowly.

"Mba Bia, by the way Alby kok ga Melu homecoming?", asked Rina to me. We were both close to my shop.


(Ikut homecoming)


"Rin's work!", I answered briefly. Yes how is it? Time yes I have to tell all that I'm going through to Rina.


"Oh, what is Saiki's mang work? Jeh Nang factory Iku Tah...opo arane Astralll?", asked Rina.


(Where are you working now? Still at the factory?)


"Ga Rin's."


Lina just nodded. Lina and I got into a stall that was quite crowded in the school children's holiday season.


"Mba Bi!", call the little boy, who is none other than Esa's voice.


I looked in the direction that called me. Esa sat on the bench with her friends and waved at me.


I know, Esa's innocent here. But I don't know why I'm still reluctant to admit she's my own sister.


"Rina to the bathroom first. Kebelet!", said Rina slightly running away towards the bathroom that was in the back. I don't want to go to Esa and her friends.


"That's right, my mom. His name is Mba Bia. Ayu anyway?", said Esa introduced me to friends her age. I smiled thinly.


"Like your Ambi Yo Sa?", chirped Esa's girlfriend.(Mirim is just like you)


"Hooh rek, koyo potocopian. Gur mba Bia face girl, you guys Sa!", said another. Esa seemed to be listening to the praise of her friend.


I want to go to Esa. But seeing him so happy to introduce me to his friends makes me feel bad. I still have a conscience.


"Mba Bia, he said mba Bia live in west Java huh? Just home? You see, after the circumcision of Esa yesterday, the rich mba Bia did not seem to?", asked Esa's friend.


"Yes." Yeah." I say briefly. Esa pulled my hand.


"Luh'o kene mbak."


(Sit here mbak)


Half-heartedly I sat down among these bobs.


"Mba, Alby ain't got no fucking opo?", asked Esa. (Mas Alby didn't come home)


I haven't been able to answer yet, there's a circular hand on my shoulder. I don't want to look up to see who dares to hold me. Especially in front of children of Esa age.


"Neng!", greet Alby and then kiss the top of my head.


I also stood up.


"Aa iraha kadieu?", asked in surprise. I thought he was just messing around when he said I was told to wait for him.(When did I get here?)


"So early this morning."


Alby looked at the boy who looked so much like his wife.


"It's Esa huh?", asked Alby. Esa and her friends gawk.


"Esa?", Alby waved his hand before Esa's face.


"Eh.. Yeah, Alby?", asked Esa. Alby nodded and smiled.


"You're so big, Sa!" said Alby. Esa nodded awkwardly.


"Mother, how are you?", asked Alby to Esa. I heard Alby asking my mother to be even more upset by her presence here.


"Alhamdulillah, healthy mas. Mas Alby just got Bia here?"


"Yes, there's Sa's job."


Esa nodded.


"Oh yeah, I ate it with his friends. Just as Alby came in!", I said as I pulled my husband's hand away from Esa and his friends.


"Neng, Aa kangen very much with Neng. Why isn't Aa's phone picked up? Wa Aa ain't in bales?", Alby's cerocos.


I don't understand Alby's words. We both went straight into a special room. Without me knowing, it turns out that there was Lek Sarman who was checking the bookkeeping stalls.


"Jawab neng? So angry are you with Aa until you don't want to pick up Aa's phone? Are you trying to separate from Aa? Yeah?", Alby grabbed my shoulder.


"A selfish person knows nothing!"


"A knows I'm wrong. But you know Neng, Aa is just love!", said Alby again.


Suddenly, Lek Sarman approached us and punched Alby in the jaw until he staggered.


"Ahhhhh.!", scream me while closing my ears.


"Still have the guts you found Bia hah!", snapped a sultry lek Sarman and hit Alby again.


"Stop lek..udah ..!", I pulled Sarman's large tall lek body.


"What lek did no matter how much he compared you to Nduk!", said Lek Sarman gasping for emotion.


"Yes lek. Hands with violence. Please lek!", I said trying to break them.


"Go away, don't bother my nephew anymore. And one more thing, you can find Bia if you've agreed to release Bia. Take that!", hardik Sarman in front of the battered face of Alby. Lek Sarman dragged me out of the room. With a little rough Lek Sarman took me to his house not far from the stall.


"Lek...!", call me slowly.


"Neither talk! Now you're in. Don't go home first. You are here!", lek Sarman told me after he brought me into his house.


I could only sigh and sit on the sofa in this minimalist living room.


What is Alby doing here? Does he really want to fight for me?
