Long River

Hard Choice

Baby sitter Runi also followed Aska into the house, staying Kenzo who stood dumbfounded on his own.

Is leka engaged? Did I come late? Why am I coming late? The man's eyes were glazed. He walked into the house with a hole.

So my arrival was in vain? He entered the room while leaning against the door. The man tried to breathe.

Later Kenzo's life began to look calm, after being able to pray and give alms on behalf of his parents. Given his father's many sins to many people, he felt he could ease the sins of his parents which caused him to now be at peace with the past. At least thinking that the sins of his parents could be forgiven by God, Kenzo felt his burden began to decrease and could rearrange his life.

To which Kenzo does not know, Leka and Aska quarrel later and the Baby Sitter attempts to save Runi by taking her to his room. Ani looked at Runi with pity. "Why do the two always fight, I wonder. It seems that they both have different properties that cannot be combined. However, Mr. Aska loves Leka's mother if her mother does not want to ya can't. Mr. Aska also sometimes if you talk rudely and lie, for a long time Mother also can not stand him. I also if I have a handsome boyfriend like Mr. Aska also do not want if his mouth is rough." He hugged Runi and rubbed his back as the little girl looked agitated. Runi also did not like the man she called 'Om' that close to her mother. In addition to fighting with his mother, his mother also looks unhappy. He doesn't like people who make his mother unhappy.

"Leka, why the hell haven't you been referring to me? Three months of your iddah is over. If you want us to remarry in KUA, that's okay, I'll take care of it soon because I also want us to legalize our marriage so that nothing happens like yesterday, say divorce and then we split up. I don't want that to happen again. I want to stay whole with you." Aska clasped his ex-wife's hand in hope. "I also want to have a family party ...."

"Bang, I don't want to go back to you." Finally the sentence came out of Leka's mouth. She pulled her hand from her ex-husband's.

"Leka, what are you talking about? Ilove you. Isn't this the phrase you've been waiting for all this time and I can finally confirm it to you. Don't make this effort useless. Leka, I love you and want the best for you and our son. Do you want our son to lose his father? The biological parent remains the best for our child's environment, don't you think about that?"

"Bang, the boy needs someone who loves him not his family."

"Who said?"

"Your mother."

Aska's water turned sour.

"Aren't you also living with a family you don't have a blood relationship with? So don't make that an excuse, Bang."

Aska scowled in annoyance. "You are also an ungrateful human being. It's my turn and my family to uplift your dignity that you forget us."

Leka frowned. "What does that mean?"

"You're living with my parents' facilities, getting money and jobs from them but you don't want to marry me that's cheating!" aska was upset. "You can't live without their help, can you?" Led again.

Hot Leka ears. This is what he avoided because Aska could suppress it at any time by talking about the facilities his parents gave Leka. The woman was really upset. "Go from here ... go!!!" yelled Leka with nanar. The woman opened the door wide.

"Leka please listen to me. I'm doing this for you so you can understand my love struggle. Marry me." Aska realizes he has been mispronounced until Leka expels him. His annoyance made him unable to control his mouth that sounded rude.

"I said go, go!!!" leka shouted loudly pointing outwards.

Aska lazily came out because the security guard had also picked her up inside the house. After Aska left, Leka immediately entered the room. He stared in silence until Ani knocked on the door of his room.

"Mom, Runi slept with Mom, right?"

"Oh, yes. Sorry." Leka opened the door. He took the sleepy Runi. "I'm sorry Ani, I keep bothering you."

"Yes, nothing ma'am." Ani closed the door.

Leka went back to bed and put Runi to bed. He's confused. Her childhood is over and she doesn't want to go back to her ex-husband, so now what should she do? He remembered Kenzo who had just met him. Surely he could not ask Kenzo to marry him but at least he could ask her to move out of the house. Yes, only Kenzo can ask for help.

After putting Runi to sleep, Leka came out to Kenzo's house. Although it began late at night, he was sure Kenzo had not slept.

When he entered, he waited in the living room. He saw the man coming down the stairs and came to him. There was a longing atmosphere that was airborne instantly but there was even more important thing rippling between the two of them. Leka Fate.

"Assalamualaikum Brother. Sorry for the nights coming home. Sorry huh? Is Brother distracted?"

" Greetings waalaikum. Oh, no."

Then there was a gap between them. Kenzo with his longing and Leka with his hope.

"What ... Can you help me?" Leka who tried to lower her head back glanced at Kenzo, disinclined.

"helpfully? Helped what? Don't you have in-laws to ask for help? I'm an outsider so it's hard to get into your problems."

Leka. Given that he once made Kenzo difficult because of his position, Leka was forced to give up on the man's answer. "Eh, I'm sorry, sister, interrupting." He immediately stood up and nodded.

"Eh, Leka ...."

But the woman was gone. Kenzo later regretted why he did not ask first the problem because it must not be easy until the woman had to come to his house at night.

-----------++++------------

It was a bright morning. The sun is shining enough. At breakfast with Ani, Leka says her plan.

" ... I'm sorry Ani, but I intend to go back to the village because I don't feel fit to be a city person."

"Yes ma'am, it's okay."

"Later I'll give you your last paycheck and I'll leave it to Mr. Kenzo."

"Yes, Mom."

"Later after breakfast, just get your things done, then we go to Mr. Kenzo's house."

After Ani finished cleaning her things, she followed Leka to Kenzo's house.

"What's? You're coming home?" Kenzo surprised. "But what if Aska ...."

"Tell him." Leka hands over the house keys to Kenzo as well as a black card belonging to her former father-in-law Chris. "This belongs to Mr. Chris, please return all Baby Sitter Runi."

"Eh, but Leka ...."

Leka looked at Kenzo. This was probably the last time he could meet the man. "Please, brother .." he said. He later died and went looking for an ojek.

The sudden notice from Leka made him confused, what happened to Leka and Aska. Didn't they get engaged, but why did Leka come home? Does Leka want a vacation or do they have problems?

He was still weighing what had happened to Leka and walking towards the fence, which was when Aska's car came to the woman's house.

Since Kenzo's arrival, Aska is actually a little afraid of Leka glancing at Kenzo because he knows his ex-wife is close to the man. Moreover, Monique now every day sends messages to meet him. He wants to get married to Leka to make it easier for him to stay together before Kenzo and Monique's problems come to the surface. It's a ticking time bomb that's going to blow up all the time and when the time comes, he's not going to divorce his wife, no matter what. He was so scared of losing his ex-wife.

"Eh, Leka's coming home," Kenzo told me.

Aska. He was about to enter Leka's house and Kenzo told him. "Where do you know?" He came to Kenzo on the fence.

Kenzo showed Aska the keys to the woman's house. "This is the key to his house. He just gave it to me."

"new? She just left?" Aska.

"Yes, that's her Baby Sitter at home." Kenzo pointed at Ani who came out of the house when he saw Aska.

Aska was surprised. He immediately got into his car and turned around and left them.

"What exactly is between them?" Kenzo's forehead wrinkled.

"They fought last night sir." Ani explained.

"Disputing why, aren't they engaged?"

"Oh .. that." Ani laughed a little. "Sir Aska lied sir, they're not engaged yet. Even yesterday Mother Leka threw out Mr. Aska because her words seemed to offend her."

"What did Mr Aska say?"

Ani went wrong. "Well, I'll accuse the complainant again sir." He scratched his head.

Kenzo sighed. He should have listened to Leka last night. He was disappointed to hear from Aska's mouth that they had been engaged until he was busy arranging his lost heart. Now does he still have another chance to express his heart?

A car was trailing Leka to the train station. The car stopped when Leka's ojek pulled over.

"Mom, here we are trailing the woman, ma'am. He was going to the train station alone with his young son" said the man who drove to someone on the phone.

"good. Just kidnap her. Keep him in a barn." said the voice of the woman on the other end.

"Good Mom." The man closed his phone. He waited for the right time to ambush the woman. After seeing Leka begin to go down and towards the station, he invited his other friends of 3 people to come down and ambush the woman.

One of them stopped the field in front. "Where are you going mbak?"
