Love of the Past

Love of the Past
The Life of Rangga



"What's the matter, baby?"asked Eldar to see his wife looked a lot of daydreaming this morning. Didn't they just go through a beautiful night?


"Where's Ekel, mas?" asked Neva without answering Eldar's question.


"Ekel was riding a horse along with Rangga."


"Oh....., hold Dona?"


"Come too. I saw them go on two horses. Ekel with Rangga and Dona alone."


Neva who finished making the bed then sat on the existing sofa. "What time did it go?"


"Around 10 o'clock. You haven't had a shower? Want me to take a shower?"


"Oh my.....!" Neva became blushed. "Emesum is still morning."


"Can just offer to bathe. How exactly is that perverted assumption?"


Neva pulled her husband's hand to sit next to her. "I want to ask you about Rangga."


"Why? Want to match Rangga with Dona? I think they fit in too."


"Mas, Rangga is really a single? Or is he the type of guy who just wants to have sex with women without any ties?"


Eldar looked at his wife. "Why ask like that?"


"Jawab it."


"Rangga is single. Although she was married for 5 years, she got divorced."


"Why divorce? Rangga is a handsome and well-established man. I saw on the payroll, that the salary you gave him was very much. More than enough to support a wife and children. Even he can build a fantastic house with such a salary."


"Yes, honey. The salary of Rangga is very much. Not to mention what I gave as a bonus in person. But 7 years ago, Rangga was just a poor man who had just graduated college. Even though he graduated with the best grades but he did not have a fixed salary. Rangga's parents are just a couple of simple farmers who live in the village while there are still two younger siblings who go to school. Rangga was desperate to marry his girlfriend during college because both were arrested by residents while alone on curfew. According to Rangga, they did nothing. After marriage, Rangga's wife began to demand this and that. He even forbade Rangga to send money to his parents to help his two younger siblings. Maybe because they can't wait for their lives to become more kayak, he said, rangga's wife chose to abort her womb and asked for divorce from Rangga after she fell out with a young man who had just moved near the compound where they lived. His wife was willing to be made the third wife of the master as long as she could live a luxurious life. Hence Rangga became traumatized close to the woman. Until finally, he helped papi who had an accident. Through the introduction, papi offered Rangga a job. Seeing the intelligence of Rangga, only 2 months, he was immediately appointed as his assistant papi. Until papi died and I replaced papi, he remained my assistant. All this time, I saw that Rangga had never been close to any girl. You yourself know Rangga bukam working hours only until half-five in the afternoon but 1x24 hours with me. Where was she dating?"


"Means he's not a jerk who likes Gonta to change women, right?"


"Know I don't, baby. I do not know how Rangga channeled his desire as a man. He's 32 years old."


Neva nodded.


"What the hell is that? Why do you suddenly want to know my assistant's life?"


Neva told me what she heard last night as she passed by Dona's room.


"really?" ask Eldar in disbelief. "But, in front of me, they seem ordinary. Even being so cute to each other."


"Keep, Rangga who did Dona say last night with that joyful voice? There's no maid here named Rangga."


Eldar was silent for a moment. Then he smiled while shaking his head. "It's only right that whenever I want to see Ekel, she always comes with me. But when I would take Ekel for a walk, Rangga always refused to come along with the reason that I and Ekel get closer if both. He'll be faithfully waiting at home with Dona. I don't know if he played dipping. Me and Ekel sometimes go for 2 hours."


"15 minutes can go straight in, let alone 2 hours?"


Eldar looked at his wife. "We've only been 15 minutes?"


Neva nodded.


"When that?"


"When we were in Sidney. That's how if it's still not halal but it's been mutually berpursu, good at utilizing the smallest time possible."


Eldar hugged his wife. He drowned his face at the top of his wife's head while inhaling deeply should Neva's hair. "Darling, I have a plan" Neva said, whispering something.


Eldar surprised. "But baby....."


"Just have to."


"Earlier than the barrier?"


Eldar could only nod. How can I ignore his wife's wishes?


"I'm going to take a shower?" Neva stood up, but Eldar pulled back his hand so that Neva was now sitting on the lap of her husband.


"We take advantage of 15 minutes just like we used to."


Neva pulled the husband's nose and stood up and moved away quickly. "I don't want to, ma'am."


"Why baby? You used to."


"Now don't want anything." cried Neva who had entered the bathroom. Eldar followed his wife's steps and stood in front of the bathroom door.


"What reason?"


Neva opened the bathroom door a little and just popped her head. "Because now, you've been demanding a lot of heating models. One model takes 10 minutes. Where enough? It's ah, mas. I'm gonna take a shower." Neva instantly closed the bathroom door with a satisfied Eldar laugh as he managed to tease his wife.


************


Ekel's face immediately looks so happy to see his room decorated with images of the American captain which is Ekel's favorite film.


Neva was also happy to see the room in the denomination of white and red. Complete with a study table and Eldar's favorite toys.


"Mommy Dona, Ekel wants to bobo himself from now on. Small bed. Just for the children's bed so mommy Dona bobo in another room, huh?" ekel said making Dona pretend to frown on it he was also happy if indeed Ekel was no longer dependent on him.


They also put Ekel's clothes from the old house together so that Ekel knows where all her clothes are. The child is very independent even though he is still 5 and a half years old.


"Nev, you're together now. I'm just going back to Mr Carlos' house, okay? Poor house that no one occupies. He's gonna buy that house for Ekel."


"You yourself dong over there? Why not just stay here, anyway? Eldar prepared a room for you. There are also two arts that will work cleaning the house and cooking. So you don't have to bother. You've spent enough time taking care of Ekel. It's time to take care of yourself."


Dona looked at Ekel who had fallen asleep in her bed while hugging a bolster pillow with the picture of the American captain. He loved EKel very much and felt unencumbered to take care of the boy. But now Ekel already has a whole family. It would be better for Ekel to be with her family.


"I will continue my work to manage Mr. Carlos' expedition here."


"Are you alone forever?" ask Neva to start investigating.


"I'll have you as my family. Are you going to throw me out now?"


"Where is it possible? Don't you want a husband and children?"


"I'm afraid to build a relationship with such a bond."


"So you want to build a relationship without status?"


"As long as I'm happy."


Neva wanted to talk but she held herself back. He decided to discuss this with Rangga.


***********


"What did the lady call me?" rangga asked the next morning, Neva called him to Eldar's room while Eldar left them.


"I know your relationship with Dona. And I already know how deep your relationship is."


"Don't Dona tell me?" Rangga hopes so because he really wants to have a relationship openly.


"No. I know when I hear you guys making love."


Speak Neva who to the point makes Rangga's face immediately paled.


"I've proposed to Dona but she's afraid of starting a marriage commitment. He was afraid of divorce. In case I promised that I would be loyal to him. She's the only girl I ever wanted after my divorce 5 years ago. I also have a trauma with marriage but I'm sure that with Dona, we'll be happy. I don't want a relationship without this status either. We both need each other physically but Dona forbids involving feelings."


Watch out for you Dona. Just look what I'm gonna do to you! Neva said in his heart.
