KP 38 - Coincidence

“Dad?!”

“Mother?!”

Ayline sped up her pace, approaching the two middle-aged people whom she had longed for so much. Just moments ago, Ayline received a short message from Denis, if her husband was waiting at one of the restaurants. Not wanting to make Oswald wait for a long time, Ayline rushed to the restaurant Denis mentioned.

The middle-aged woman called Ayline called Mother, widened her hands to greet her only daughter with a warm embrace. There was a puddle of tears in his eye sockets, as he was finally able to meet up with Ayline again after a long time.

“Ayline, babe ...” Melanie's mother gently rubbed the princess's head.

“How can Mom and Dad be here?” ayline asked looking at the face of Father, Mother, then her husband last. Oswald was there, of course the man knew the answer to his question.

Ayline kissed the back of his father's hand. There was no hug to express his longing like he did to his mother. So far, his father is the most rigid and cold man in Ayline's life. From the past until now, Ayline still difficult to distinguish whether in fact he was reluctant to excessive or even afraid of the Father.

“Nak Oswald invited us to the opening event of your new outlet. Coincidentally too, your father has several business meetings in this City.” The explanation came from Melanie's mother.

In Ayline's heart muttered, Your new outlet? I've never even been involved in the company business.

Ayline sighed softly so that no one noticed. Supposedly as a wife if not doing home business, then at least he can help the husband in the company, he thought. Surprisingly, her husband did not ask for both. Her husband asked her to get pregnant with another man. A crazy house! Gerrutu Ayline in heart.

“Why silence? You used to like that, suddenly daydreaming!” reprimand Ms. Melanie.

Ayline just smiled. “Thank you, Mas. I really miss my parents,” Ayline told Oswald.

“Don't say like that, Honey,” says Oswald gently. “I'm afraid Dad and Mom will think I forbid you from meeting them,” he continued to be greeted with laughter by Damien's father and Melanie's mother.

In Ayline's heart was confused to have to laugh or cry. Her husband spoke softly in front of his parents. What an almost perfect role as a husband and daughter-in-law.

“That's not what I mean. I'm sure Father and Mother will understand,” Ayline said as she clasped her husband's hand.

The afternoon pleasantries did not last long. After their food order was served by the waiter, everyone focused on their respective food. Sometimes there is only a light discussion about the work between Damien's father, Oswald, and Denis.

Two hours passed, the impromptu lunch was over. Ayline was writhing spoiled in the arms of the Mother. I don't think they're ready if they have to separate. The loss of both parents has not been fully treated.

“When are you going home?” ask Damien's father.

“Tonight, Father,” replied Oswald.

Ayline's face turned sad. He hugged his mother's arm. Oswald, who saw the sight, thought of giving Ayline a little freedom with his parents.

“Looks like my wife still misses you a lot, Mom,” Oswald said.

Melanie's mother misunderstood. He thought Oswald was insinuating his daughter for being so spoiled for him. “Sorry Nak Oswald, probably because we haven't seen each other in a long time.” Ms. Melanie even tried to pull her hand, for Ayline to let go of her embrace.

Oswald. “What's wrong, Mom. I understand kok,” reply Oswald.

“What if Ayline stays with you first? Later after the affairs of Father and Mother finished in this City, only Ayline also returned home,” proposed Oswald.

Ayline did not believe what her husband said. The two net are wide, “True, Mas? You really let me stay with Dad and Mom?”

“You're that happy, sweetheart?” ask Oswald.

Ayline did not care anymore, whether her husband asked sincerely or just pretended. “Yes, I'm so happy! Thank you, Mas,”.

What did Mas Oswald mean? What good news does he want?

...…...

The next day, Ayline follows her parents meeting with a client at one of the restaurants in the shopping mall. Last night, Melanie's mother gave her daughter a lot of advice. How should a wife serve her husband, how should a wife take care of the household, and many other things. Somehow advised by his own mother, but it feels like Oswald who is his mother's biological child.

From what his mother said, it was all about Oswald's comfort. How fun Oswald. How Ayline should obey all Oswald's words. As if the most important thing was Oswald's feelings.

“Bu, I permission to the bookstore yes?” pinta Ayline's.

“Book store?” Ms. Melanie's forehead frowned. “Do you not have to go to your father's meeting with his client? You can all learn about business,” proposed by Ms. Melanie.

“But, Bu ...”

Ayline really didn't want to be there. Strange indeed, because yesterday he was so happy because Oswald allowed him to live with his parents. But, since last night all Dad and his mother talked about was Oswald. There is no discussion about Ayline.

“Leave it, Mom. You don't know how your son is!” damien's Dad's Chirps.

“But Dad, if Ayline starts learning business he will be able to help Oswald in the company,” said Ms. Melanie.

“You can not only help your husband later. You can also help our family if you have power in the company.” Ms. Melanie had already imagined the amount of profit her family would get if Ayline also had power in the Pallas Group.

Ayline sighed, the decision to stay with her parents was not what she expected. The only talk is about money and power.

“Bu .. Mas Oswald must know when I am ready and able to help him in the company. I don't want to force it,” elak Ayline.

Ms. Melanie clucking. Whereas in the past when marrying Ayline she had imagined if the power and position of her husband would be stronger.

“Already Mom, I'm going to the bookstore. Please let me know if Dad's meeting is over.” Regardless of her mother's ban anymore, Ayline rushed out of the restaurant and searched where the bookstore was located.

...…...

The bookstore in the shopping mall was located on the top floor. When Ayline entered the store, most of the visitors were students.

The bookstore was very crowded that day. From the information of one of the store employees, a book surgery event is underway by one of the rising novel writers. Thinking if his father's meeting will take a long time, Ayline decided to attend the book surgery event even though he finally had to jostle.

“Excuse me.. excuse me..” Ayline is still trying to get in the middle of the crowd. But what power, the students seemed to still be more agile than him until Ayline was still in the back row.

Intrigued by the face of the novel writer who was answering a question from a fan, Ayline was deliberately tiptoe. Not even he had time to see the author's face, the balance was suddenly lost.

Ayline would have fallen, had a man standing behind her not been quick to help her.

Bruk! The sound of an object falling to the floor.

“You all right?” ask the man.

Ayline. “Po-mobile phone ka-you?!” yep, Ayline felt guilty. He immediately lowered his head to retrieve the man's phone that had fallen while helping Ayline.

Both netra Ayline. The man's cell phone screen is still on. “Ka-you ..?”
