Holy Prison

PS2. 23 - Sugar Semanis

“Oiya, Son. Ulfa will also go to Lombok there is a duty from her boss to go there.” said Mama.

“Oh, so, Ma.” I just got there responding.

“You leave when?” ask Ulfa.

“Tomorrow morning.” says.

“Lho same dong? I'm also tomorrow morning.” said Brother Ulfa.

I glanced at Mas Faiz.

“I boarded Garuda. You guys?” ask Ulfa.

“We don't know.” this time Mas Faiz replied.

I'm not sure of Mas Faiz's words, Mas Faiz said that we're leaving tomorrow morning so it looks like he's already bought our tickets. However, I pray that the tickets booked are not the same as Ulfa. Let's say I'm evil but honest in which part, I feel I don't want a plane with Sister Ulfa. My relationship with Sister Ulfa has not been very good, it will make us awkward.

“Well, how about I come with you guys?” ask Ulfa.

“Tap them for their honeymoon. You can't come with them.” Mama said.

“Ma, can Mama see me live alone later there?” ask Ulfa.

“Then from that Papa said that you just refuse the offer.” said Papa.

“Defying this task is like me resigning, Pa. I do not want my career there that I have built many years because of this.” said Ulfa.

“But they're going on honeymoon.” Papa said.

“I can choose another room while in the hotel, Pa. I just need a friend there.” said Brother Ulfa.

“But, Son. Mama is afraid later you interfere with their event there.” said Mama.

“Ma, I'm already big. I can set a time when I should be with them when not. I won't interfere with their show anyway. Isn't that right, Nindy? Can you come with your sister?” ask Ulfa. Ulfa took my hand.

“I..” I hang my words.

I was confused what to do or say. I was about to glance at Mas Faiz but Kak Ulfa's voice stopped my movement.

“Do you still grudge me because I have captured Mama's attention many years ago? Is that why you intend to reject me?” ask Ulfa.

Now Ulfa's eyes are glazed.

“Eh, no, Sister. I don't have any grudges against brother, but.” haven't had time for me to continue. Brother Ulfa rise.

“My sister still holds a grudge against me, and Mama Papa does not support my career. I'm really unlucky in this house!” exclaim Brother Ulfa.

He cried and ran straight to the stairs. Looks like heading for the room.

“Eh, not like that, Brother!” myrag.

Ulfa kept running away from us. Now I feel bad for him. It seems like this time I was the one who was outrageous. Ulfa just asked together to Lombok. After all, the honeymoon did not require that Mas Faiz and I were always together from leaving to going home.

“Nak Faiz, Mama please, may Ulfa come with you guys huh? Yes, Pa?” said Mama.

“Iya, Son. Honestly, Papa can't tell him to quit the job he likes so much, if he is near you, Papa can breathe a sigh of relief. After all she's a woman so Papa can't let her go far alone.” Papa said.

Mas Faiz glanced at me, as if asking for approval. Hearing Mama and Papa plead, of course I will never be able to handle it. I nodded too.

“Good, Ma. Pa.” says Mas Faiz.

“Thank you, Son. You are so good.” said Mama.

Mas Faiz just nodded.

Later that night after returning from Mama's house, Mas Faiz took me to a restaurant that sold various heavy foods. We didn't have dinner at my mom's, and my stomach was hungry. Mas Faiz really didn't want me to get sick.

“What do you want to eat, honey?” ask Mas Faiz.

I bit my lips to hear the call.

“Eh yes, Mas. I want to eat fried chicken.” I said with a smile.

“You seem to really like fried chicken.” said Mas Faiz while chuckling.

“Eh, but I want a duck too. Which one do I choose, Mas?” my many.

“Book it both ways.” said Mas Faiz.

“Later not exhausted, mubazir.” I said.

“You've ordered chicken, I'll order duck. Later you can try everything.” said Mas Faiz.

“You like to eat duck, Mas?” my many.

“Akan Mas try.” said.

Mas Faiz never seemed to feel a duck. Good then, I can help him taste the fried duck, something he has never tried.

“Drink?” ask Mas Faiz.

“I want iced oranges.” I said.

“Good.” says Maa Faiz.

Me and Mas Faiz laughed. He was really like a restaurant waiter who was asking orders to the visitors who came. Mas Faiz laughed, meaning Mas Faiz felt what I felt

“Mas!” mas Faiz called a servant.

The male servant who felt called Mas Faizpun approached.

“There can I help?” tanyakanya.

“We order one fried chicken, one fried duck, and two orange ice yes. You want another one, An?” ask Mas Faiz to me.

I'm shaking.

“Already, that's it.” said Mas Faiz.

“Good, wait a minute ya.” said the waiter.

We nodded. The waiter immediately walked away.

I observed the restaurant intentionally or not, Mas Faiz took me to a very romantic restaurant. This restaurant is dominated by brown and classic Javanese interior which is very good and delicious to look at. The golden-yellow lamp pendulum makes the atmosphere more romantic. Not only that, to add to the romantic atmosphere we presented romantic jazz songs.

“We're like dating huh, Mas?” I said.

“Aren't we dating?” ask Mas Faiz.

“Ah? So, we're on a date, Mas?” my many.

Mas Faiz chuckled. “Say it like that.”

As he chuckled like that, his cold aura completely vanished. When that happened, I felt really special. For me, his smile and his sadness with me is a form of my misery in his life.

As we know, Mas Faiz rarely laughs, airs cold, and talks. But look at every single one of him with me. He really became a very different person. He's getting warm. I'm so willing that my husband is cold-stamped and untouchable by people especially the women who love him out there as long as he's with me he's still my warm man.

“What a Mas too handsome, An. Until you don't blink looking at me?” ask Mas Faiz.

“Masss..” whine.

There was nothing wrong with Mas Faiz's words, but there were a lot of problems in my heart that were racing faster than usual.

“Why, Dear?” ask Mas Faiz.

“Mass.. Stop it, I beg.” I said while covering my face with both palms of my hands, trying to hide my face that was definitely red like a tomato.

“Be my life partner, be the mother of my children~” suddenly Mas Faiz sings following the song that is now playing.

“Masss, please love my heart.” I said.

Mas Faiz laughed, “You are so funny, An.” he said.
