LOVE IN LIFE

100

Bella kept quiet since returning from the outside, Maria noticed the attitude of those who kept quiet.

"What's wrong? I just saw you get close to Bella, now you're quiet" Maria asked.

Davin sighed, he closed the book he was reading.

"There's nothing Ma! " davin answered a little ignoring his mother's question.

"Because... "

"Byeah! Please! " Davin looked at his mother.

"Mama just wants to guess and you finally say what makes you shut up again. That's all" said Maria.

"Because I took Bella to Amelia's camp. And I stared at the intimacy of Saga and Amelia. Bella knew and understood, she shut up and asked to go home. Mama satisfied?" Davin left Maria alone in the living room.

Harris saw him, he approached and patted Maria on the shoulder.

"Based on brash children, be noticed even with gas! " said Harris.

Mary saw Harris' hand touching her.

"Let me be angry with him" Harris said.

He went after Davin, Maria could only watch Harris leave.

Arriving at the study, Harris opened the door and saw Davin sitting with a frowning face.

"Can you speak a little more gently to your mother? " said Harris.

Davin sighed as if he didn't want to hear his father's babble.

"He's worried about you" Harris said, pointing to the door.

"I don't want to comment on my father's treatment of my mother, so please, can you leave me alone? " said Davin.

Harris was silent for a moment, he swallowed his saliva understanding with his words.

"At least answer well all her worries, even though I'm so bad in your eyes, but she's your mother. Don't be unkind to her just because of me... "

Not done yet Harris spoke, Davin interrupted.

"I'm not upset with him, he knows it, he's my mother" Davin replied.

Harris shut his mouth.

"So, can? " ask Davin with her hands turned towards the door.

Harris left, he closed the door and then saw Maria standing there.

"He shouldn't have said that to you" said Maria.

Harris smiled and approached, again, he touched Maria's shoulder.

"It's okay, it's normal. Which is not okay, when he says rude to you" Harris said.

Maria was nervous, not usually Harris behaved like that to her.

Harris leaves, but Maria holds him back.

"Why?" ask Maria.

Harris turned around, he looked at Maria with raised eyebrows.

"You don't usually do this, I get scared" Maria said.

Harris lowered his gaze.

"There's nothing you need to fear" Harris said in a soft voice again.

Harris walked away again to leave him.

"I beg you not to leave me" said Mary again withholding her steps.

This time Harris didn't turn around. He swallowed his saliva because he could not say anything.

Maria shed her tears.

Davin who was listening to them behind the door, sighed.

'I shouldn't have told my mother' Davin said.

She recalled the moment she heard Amelia and Harris' conversation in the study.

***

On a clear morning, the dining table is ready with all the breakfast dishes to suit the likes of each family member.

Zidan came in neat and fragrant clothes. Oma who walked behind him smelled his scent.

"Well, it smells like you today" praised Oma.

Zidan looked and smiled.

"Omaaa, I don't think it's Oma. Of course I smell. I'm going to Tangerang, see my parents" Zidan said.

"Yep! " answe Zidan replied.

"Aren't they the ones coming? " ask Oma.

"No, not this month. It looks like next month, when Oma announces Saga's wedding date" Zidan replied.

"What's? Be married? " Bella just came to interrupt the conversation.

Oma and Zidan were about to sit down, staring at him.

"Good, move, I'm getting sick of it" Bella said as she sat down.

"Slightly hide your jealousy, especially in front of me" said Oma.

Bella swerved and then flipped her plate.

"Where's your husband? " ask Oma.

"No! " answered Bella with lips pointing towards the stairs.

"For Oma! " greet Davin.

"You ready yourself again? " ask Oma.

Davin glanced at Bella, who had not prepared her clothes today.

"No, Bella was ready" Davin replied.

Oma looked at him for quite a while, knowing his granddaughter was lying.

Zidan looked at Bella then smiled at the corner of her lips, mocking, knowing Bella wouldn't be willing to do it. Especially she knew from Bella that last night came to her complaining about Davin looking jealous seeing Saga and Amelia giving each other happiness.

While Bella herself was indifferent and ate her breakfast.

Shortly after, Maria and Harris came together. Zidan raised both of his eyebrows feeling surprised by the unusual sight.

"Well, the weather must have been so bright that you guys came down for breakfast together" Zidan said.

Harris hit his head as he walked past.

"For Ma'am! " greet Harris who then kissed her forehead.

"Wahhh, Minah really makes all the favorite foods of everyone" Maria said.

Bella, Zidan and Davin find it strange to talk to Maria. They looked at him simultaneously. But Maria did not notice and immediately devoured her breakfast.

Harris behaved the same, he didn't care about their eyes.

"Oh yeah, hearing Ghani's family camp, I wanted to have the same event" Harris said.

Everyone was silent, including Oma Mira who immediately put her spoon.

"What's? "

It's not that Oma didn't hear, but she felt Harris' speech was very different. He also realized, for a few days Harris was staying at home not going to his cafe.

"Yes, camping, or at least a picnic. Must be exciting" continued Harris.

"Well, what's wrong with this house? What flowers are blooming that affect the atmosphere of this house? " sindir Zidan.

"Amelia" replied Harris.

Davin looked at him.

"When he came and stayed, I felt he brought a warm and cozy atmosphere. His ideas always make us realize that we have been silent for too long and focus on our pain. It's time we gave each other happiness, isn't it? " clear Harris.

Bella puts her cutlery down hard, fed up with hearing compliments about Amelia.

"Once we talk about their marriage, how it is and what kind of marriage they dream of" Harris continued.

This time it was Davin who sighed and felt sick.

Zidan grinned.

"I won't ask for any other opinion. Let's just set it up, Mom! " said Harris as he glanced at Davin's clenched hand.

"Yes, set it up. I also want to quickly announce their marriage" replied Oma Mira.

Davin grew furious with all the talk at the dinner table that morning. But if he leaves, he will get a speech from Oma Mira as well as his parents.

Davin stood up, everyone was staring at him.

"I'm done, I'm going to work" Davin said as if answering their gaze.

"Take Bella out for a walk, it's still a weekend" Oma exclaimed.

Davin stopped but did not look.

"No, I don't want to go anywhere. I'll go back to my room. I'm done" said Bella who then stood interrupting their speech.

Davin saw the departure of Bella who had preceded him up the stairs.
