Little Bride Alvaro

106. Message Alvaro

"Sister, take a taxi home, okay?"

Alvaro actually felt unwilling if Azlina had to take a taxi, while there was himself who was free to take the wife back home. However, the situation that made him had to agree to Azlina's request. She had not been able to meet Azlina until her mother accepted her daughter-in-law back into her home.

"Yes, okay." Alvaro's eyeballs did not take his eyes off Azlina's face. His smile was so thin that he greeted the face of the woman, then placed both palms on Azlina's shoulders. "If you want to find a college, call Brother, yes? Later Brother inter." Alvaro took something out of his wallet, a credit card he should have given Azlina a long time ago. "Wear this if you want to buy something. Buy whatever you want. Remember, yes, the tuition payment of the giggling Brother. Don't ask your Father or your brothers. My pride will come down later."

Azlina simply nodded with her laughter restrained. He received the thin card, then put it in the bag after a while he noticed.

"Thank you" Azlina said later.

"No need to thank me. This is your right. It's just that Kakk hasn't had time to give it. Don't let Alvaro's wife starve and lack money." He rubbed Azlina's head, smiling full of irony. I don't feel happy if they separate again. All day it was not enough to stem the longing, releasing love and affection even though they had time to sweat on the bed.

A thin sweep on Azlina's head made by Alvaro can cause a feeling that stuck in the chest. He was the same, not willing to part so soon. However, his father's message also cannot be considered a wind then. Perhaps, with a bit of a temporary breakup, Alvaro will be more eager looking for ways to reunite their love.

"Sister, I'm gonna miss you."

The hug was unexpected. Alvaro smiled as he returned Azlina's embrace equally tightly, perhaps even tighter. "We can meet outside, then book the hotel again," she whispered softly, holding back the jarring feeling inside the chest, trying to strengthen Azlina who might feel the same way, wanting to be together, always, but hindered the blessing of parents.

Azlina was unable to say anything when she felt that her forehead had been frowned upon by the man for so long. Just being able to enjoy while closing his eyes, feeling things that maybe one day he really misses.

"Come on, get Alvaro to have breakfast!" Mama Rani tells Mbak Sari his servant to call Alvaro who has not been seen since the trunk of his nose. In fact, when Papa Agus and himself almost finished eating, Alvaro had not come down to do breakfast.

Five minutes would have been long enough to call Alvaro, but Sari returned with a sour face, then reported to his big lady.

"What?!" Mama Rani screamed a little when she said it. "Don't he eat last night, too?"

"I think so, Madam. The rest of the dinner yesterday was still the same, not touched at all."

Mama Rani's face had already started to fidget and worry. He knew that Alvaro sulked at him, thus choosing to lock himself in a room for two days. Not going out, not eating, not working.

"Pa, just calm down. Our son locked himself in the room, but Papa doesn't care that." Mama Rani looks upset to see her husband instead behaving indifferently, while she is already worried half to death.

The black iris shifted her focus from the food on the plate towards Mama Rani. He casually replied, "Let it go, Ma. It's big too. If he's hungry, he'll eat." Back his hand scooped the rice on the plate, then devoured it without feeling guilty.

"Ih, Papa. Not very sensitive to be parents. Papa's not afraid of what Alvaro is doing. He doesn't work, Pa. In addition to the hunger strike, he also went on strike. What will he be."

Papa Agus only smiled faintly in response to Mama Rani's words, then sipped a warm tea to finish his morning breakfast.
