Love Without But

Love Without But
Move over



I was almost desperate to face the tall man who kept following. A shadowy spate of bad events is about to happen to me. That's the thought that now fills my head. I felt relieved when there was a voice from the front that turned out to be a kernet saved me from the terror of the man earlier.


"Cumen, Ma'am?" asked the kernet approached me who was still standing pias half crying.


"Ii .. yes, sir," I stammered.


"Come, Ma'am, get on fast! The bus is leaving soon!"


With a breath of sting half run I headed for the bus that was just shown by the father of kernet who had saved me from the gondrong man who made a heart sport.


"Mom, her husband, isn't he going up?" kernet asked when he saw me start climbing the bus stairs all by myself.


"I'm alone, Mum."


The bus started to slowly drive towards its destination.


I heaved a sigh of relief, closed my eyes for a moment and then put on a heavy smile when I realized that there was an old man next to me with a questionable look.


"Isn't anything, son?" The father asked carefully.


I'm shaking.


"That's okay, sir," I replied with a slightly clouded look.


"On your own, son? Husband not coming?"


"Yes, sir, here I want to follow my husband.


"Where from?" ask while offering mineral water.


"From this attack will go to Kebumen." I refused the mineral water that you were gently thrusting.


The middle-aged man nodded. As if I understood what I was feeling.


"How many months is it?"


His gaze turned to the part of my stomach that had already been bulging


"Eight months, sir."


"It must have been a longing for her husband, yes, to be clearly visible from his face."


I sighed and then nodded slowly. "Yes, I miss you so much." Then immediately turned his face outside the window of the bus I was riding.


Out there, you can see a stretch of rice fields and typical rural streets. While on the sides of the highway seen the ranks of houses in various types and circumstances lined up neatly.


The watch on hand shows the number eight ten minutes. I went down in front of the market. I spread my eyes around the roadside looking for someone to pick up. Across the street I saw a familiar figure wearing a helmet and turning a motorcycle and approached me who was still standing.


"Is breakfast not yet?" the question reached out the back of his hand and I kissed him with reverence.


"Breakfast where the Adek just got off the bus?"


"Go home, yuk!" bring Mas Agung after paying for our food earlier.


I nodded my head in agreement.


After traveling for about thirty-five minutes finally arrived at the front of the house.


When the first step into the living room I was made dumbfounded by the circumstances inside that were unexpected.


All I know from people, when the house is only inhabited by a husband alone without a wife its contents must not be far like a broken ship. But what is now in front of me is an incredible difference. Not a single item appeared to be scattered on the floor. Likewise with all the items that are there are neatly arranged like there are skilled hands that are used to clean it. Even the cabinets and tables have moved from their original places. So it's like a new atmosphere that I thought when I first came in.


"Who's brother in the house is there as long as there's no Grandpa?" search for computers with a home atmosphere that looks neat and clean.


"Himself, right, his wife does not exist," replied Mas Agung smilingly glancing at me.


"This is clean and clean whose house?" my friend still hesitates about the answer.


"Self tho, why? Weird, huh?"


"Kan, want a wife to come, so it is prepared as neat and comfortable as possible so that his wife does not ask to go far again" he continued to smile.


I smiled at the thick-browed man's answer. There was a sense of warmth instantly infiltrating inside the chest. From the first meeting, the attitude of the tall man was much different from when he left me.


"Udah rest first in the room. It must have been sleepy last night couldn't sleep, right, on the bus?" later decree.


When I opened the door. I looked at the whole 4x5-meter room. The atmosphere was not much different from the other room earlier there was no visible piece of clothes hanging on the wall of the room. The bed is neatly arranged with a dressing sheet that seems to have just been replaced with a new one. I was like being in a foreign room that I had never been to before because all the goods had changed positions from where they were.


I feel like a special queen in front of Mas Agung with all her treatment. The disappointment that I used to feel suddenly evaporated somewhere. So easy this heart forgets all the pain that was once felt even almost makes despair because faced with reality that is not in accordance with expectations.


After washing my face and feet I went to bed to just straighten the body that feels tired. Because almost twelve more hours continuously with a sitting position on the bus.


"Daddy, wakeup ... Salat Zuhur first, gih! If you are still sleepy, it will be easy to continue sleeping after prayers and lunch." Mas Agung shook my body. Maybe because of the state of a tired body so unconsciously my eyes immediately closed after being in bed.


On the sidelines of time after lunch Mas Agung suddenly spoke which surprised me a little.


"Sir, I'm sorry if all this time always makes Adek disappointed and hurt by the attitude of Brother all this time" he said in a roaring voice.


"I'm sorry for what?" tanyaku pretended indifferent.


"When Adek left here Brother had read all Adek's writings in the diary that Adek stored in the closet drawer. Brother just realized there's been a lot of misunderstanding between us all along."


"Misunderstanding of what?" cecarku.


"In the diary Brother read that Adek said he felt hurt and disappointed with Brother because Brother played wine behind Adek. That's not all right, Dek. By Allah, you never did anything so bad. It was all just a misunderstanding between Big Brother and all the co-workers. Until finally the slander news reached Adek's ears."


"But, he said Big Brother until he was tried by the headmaster along with the woman, right? Then the proof is that Adek can believe with all the words of Brother?" my argument is not sure.
