I'M A WIDOWER WHAT DO YOU WANT?
17. ADKMA-17
Plaque!
A hard slap landed on Muna's cheek the girl grimaced with the heat but it was only for a while because after that Muna actually stared intently at Rizal.
”Pa, what is papa doing?” exclaim Regan.
”Papa does not like to be denied!”
”Papa is selfish, do not understand at all the wishes of his children for what Muna was born if required to obey all your orders!” Tears began to fall, he felt disbelief in what Rizal did.
Rizal himself finally came out because he was reluctant to argue with his daughter. Regan hugs Muna should have been spoiled considering she is the only girl in the family but her papa curbs her.
”Have not cried we will find a solution so that you can come out to see him, believe me we will not stay silent to see all this,” said Regan trying to calm his sister.
”Now eat!” sinta's orders came in with a tray filled with food.
Muna was forced to eat the food given by Sinta because she did not want her brother and mother to worry about her condition. ”You don't work, Bang?” ask Muna.
”Of course but a bit unfortunate because I have to wait for Brian to come home first,” Regan replied.
”Oh.”
”Quick eat!”
Muna locked herself in her room she was reluctant to come out even though she needed a drink though. This made Sinta even more worried and asked her son to keep an eye on her sister.
The atmosphere at home became quiet because the usually chatty Muna more often locked herself in her room. Seeing her depressed sister her two twin brothers could not bear to see her and planned to help her. Brian and Regan arrange a secret meeting with his sister Jamal.
”Are you sure of all this because papa will definitely get angry if you find out we are fighting him secretly,” Brian said.
”Which is sure papa will be very angry but are we going to let our sister be tormented like that?” regan was firm.
”Ah I am confused if I have to talk to you because you prefer that man over me, is that true?”
”Brian, I do love Jamal because I feel confident that the man is able to protect our sister not because of anything else. I think if they are together though never lack anything later,” exclaimed Regan.
”We have to help them both,” he continued.
”Alright but if there is something later you must take full responsibility because I myself doubt considering the stubborn nature of papa as well,” said Brian.
”Okay, you leave it to me all. I just need your support, I can't bear to see my own sister tormented by papa's attitude.”
The two also plan to bring Muna together with Jamal hoping that both can both understand their respective circumstances.
***
Today Jamal received a work call at ’Garden Speed’ he is very confident that this time he can successfully collect the coffers of money that he will use to apply for Muna later. Jamal is very optimistic if one day Rizal will definitely melt with his sincerity.
”Why smile yourself, are you starting to go crazy?” tegur Ahmadi's.
”Iya I have started to go insane because of my current circumstances. I can't meet my lover, I don't know I actually miss him very much but how else I'm tired,” said Jamal.
”You should not expect too much there is a girl because in fact her parents alone do not give blessing how you want to live in the future.”
Jamal was silent to Ahmadi's words and should he give up?
”But I love him so much, why love only for the rich while people like us are considered despicable by them,” said Jamal.
”Quiet you just need to be patient mate will not go where believe me,” said Ahmadi tried to entertain his friend even though he actually hesitated.
”Let's work not let the boss get angry because we are late to do our job. Remember here is very strict regulations from other places,”, Ahmadi reminded Jamal.
”OK. Thank you.” Jamal runs parallel to Jamal.
”Hai, your phone sounds very annoying fast open!” the other sahut.
Jamal immediately shifted it and exited the room.
”Hallo with whom is this?”
”Hallo Jamal, this is Muna's sister. Can we meet later now?”
”I'm working now what if later afternoon?”
”Good, I'll confirm the address. See you.”
Beeping.
Jamal wonders why Regan contacted him if something happened to Muna considering that Regan is her closest brother.
”Who called you?” ask Ahmadi.
”She's her sister the girl who was yesterday,” Jamal replied.
”Aish, you even know her?” Ahmadi does not think about Jamal.
”Of course we met when Muna invited me to dinner at her house so I know very well how their family.”
”Well whatever it is may all go well. Let's continue our work.” Both went back to their work.
In the afternoon, at five o'clock Jamal was standing at the gate of his workplace until a car approached him.
”Hai, come in!” tell Regan to shout a little at Jamal because the sound of the vehicle traffic requires him to make a loud noise.
Jamal entered following Regan's instructions to a cafe and there was Muna and Brian was enjoying a snack in the corner of the room.
”You guys just chat we will keep an eye on the situation here, don't worry papa is out of town so you can use this opportunity to meet.”
Regan and Brian head to another bench and watch the situation outside worried that his papa's man will follow both.
”How are you?” Muna stared at Jamal who looked more thin and his face was slightly overgrown with fine fur.
”My news is good hope you are too.”
”I can't eat well, do you also feel the same as me?” Muna held back the puddles of tears that were about to come out.
”I feel the same way as you but .. I myself am not able to do anything not because I do not have the guts but I am disinclined to your papa, I still respect him as your parents, I still respect him as your father,” said Jamal.
”Yes I know about it. Jamal, is there no thought in you to elope?”
Jamal chuckles at Muna's call to do that stupid thing again. ”Until any time I won't do that especially you are a woman who should maintain the dignity of your family.”
Muna looked down as if she could no longer afford to look at the man in front of her.
”I know you yourself are tormented by your feelings, rest assured there must be a way out.”
Muna raised her face how could she let go of this man who was acting so maturely, more cuddling with his partner and why his ex-wife foolishly let go of him just because he had no possessions.
”You will endure waiting for me until I can truly be said worthy by your father to be your husband?”
Muna smilingly tried to remain calm despite her doubtful heart, doubtful because at any time Rizal could have forced her to marry Dirga immediately.
”Muna let's go home now, papa is on his way home!” exclaim Brian.
”What?”
