Missing You: David

39 Sorry

"Thank you Vin."

"Just like Ze, I go home first."

"Yes, heart of hearts."

Gavin drives off his bike leaving Zea's house. I looked inside the house in shock. Who was the man who drove his son home, his face was not David.

"That's who Ze is?"

"Gavin ma'am, Zea's friend."

"Well, why did you come home? I don't think it's a kid here?"

"So there's no bus so go home with Gavin because he also wants to go here."

"But how do you feel that kid is weird, Ze."

"Why Ma'am?"

"You go home only to the front gate."

"Well hunt blue maybe ma'am."

"Due ze? Just no time when the mother is clearly here looks."

"Zea doesn't know either."

"Yes, you took a shower there."

***********

A week passed, Zea still did not meet with David again. They did routinely send news even when driven home by Gavin, Zea told me but somehow David still did not dare to be honest with Zea.

"Mom, Fadlan is getting married to Desi" Fadlan said.

"Mom didn't hear wrong, did you?" ask mother.

Zea and Aslan who heard the conversation immediately ran into the kitchen.

"Mas sure you want to get married? Lying soon?" ask Aslan.

"Don't joke around, I'm seriously getting married."

"I'm happy then" said Zea.

"True son, mother is also happy if she wants to get married."

"Thank you, ma'am" same kid.

"Yes Ma'am, Fadlan has spoken to my father and the wedding will be done as soon as possible."

"Cock hunt buru mas?" ask Aslan.

"Yes brother, I'm hunting," added Zea.

"No rush after all Fadlan knew Desi a long time ago."

"Thank God I support your good intentions to get married. We'd better talk about the date and the need."

"Fadlan will be married in two days at the mosque" said the father from a distance.

"Why rush once sir mother does not know when the preparation," said mother shocked.

"Then Desi mba family how sir?" ask Zea.

"Your father and brother were from there and they had agreed, it is better that the marriage contract be carried out first."

"For the recipe how sir?" ask Aslan.

"Done that day, I asked Tejo and Dimas for your decor and catering and Zea should meet them outside to discuss the decor. You want to talk to Mom and Fadlan."

"Well sir, come on," Jak Aslan dragged Zea's hand.

Plain Zea just according to it is different from Aslan who thinks hard what really happened.

"Hello mas Dimas" said Zea.

"Hello dik mes, here help us take care of the same decor caterer you choose which one."

"How many guests?" ask Zea.

Dazed Dimas and Tejo just looked at each other and turned towards the puzzled Zea.

"Why silence?" ask Aslan.

"We don't know how many guests were invited" Dimas said.

Zea simply patted the astonished eel while shaking her head.

"I can't see how Fadlan's brother bentar I asked," said Zea as he moved.

Aslan's hand while preventing Zea's move.

"Don't dik, it will be considered easy now the decor is the same budget just before for later catering according to guests can then we choose the menu first," said Aslan reasoned that Zea did not go to the kitchen.

"Okay, brother is ready."

The four of them were talking in the living room. It just so happens that mineral drinking water and some snacks are available so Zea has no reason to go to the kitchen.

The Kitchen

I just sat there holding back tears from hearing Fadlan's confession.

The confused mother told Fadlan to stand up.

"Why to son? Try sitting here and explaining to mom?"

"Sorry Mom" said Fadlan.

"Yes why?"

"Fadlan has ruined Desi Bu."

Deg

Mima's heart was broken she was saddened to hear his eldest son's confession. He just hugged and calmed Fadlan who was still crying.

"Look, you better get married soon. I'm honestly disappointed but marrying Desi is part of your responsibility as a man."

"I'm sorry Fadlan sir, Mom. Fadlan could not keep the trust of Father and Mother. Fadlan has failed."

The father patted Fadlan's shoulder to calm his son. So did the mother who hugged Fadlan. His heart was broken hearing his eldest son's confession. Mima really believes in Fadlan especially he is a lecturer, educated and experienced. Who knows if this happened to his son.

"Have you calmed down, try to explain to mom how it happened?"

"Sorry Mom" said Fadlan.

"Yes, don't force it. Now wash your face and help with your wedding preparations. Even though the rush does not let Desi be disappointed."

"Good Mom."

Fadlan went to the room to wash his face and change his clothes. Because he was wearing batik clothes and shoes.

He came and hugged the mother who was crying.

"Prophe Ma'am, there must be a way no matter how Fadlan our son. His decision to be honest and marry Desi was correct. Maybe the road is wrong but we as parents have to help Fadlan get back on the right track, ma'am."

"I'm sorry sir, I've failed."

"No ma'am, no word fails. Mother has tried hard to educate our three children well and correctly. Not succeeding does not mean failing, Fadlan did make mistakes but he managed to become an educated person and help the family until now. I didn't fail Mom."

Hearing the father's words, Mima cried louder in the arms of the Father.

The Fadlan Room

Fadlan cursed himself who did not look after his lover until the time came.

"I'm sorry, God, I've sinned a great sin by doing this.

Fadlan was crying on the edge of the bed while remembering what happened last night.

Started from the seminar at one of the big hotels on the beach. This seminar was held by the tourism service with Fadlan as one of the speakers. Desi had intended to accompany Fadlan to the event and Fadlan agreed to the request.

All is well until finally, they both meet with friends Desi including her former lover, Diki.

Desi seemed familiar with Diki even they talked near the pool during Fadlan's seminar. When he finished the show, Fadlan called Desi because it was quite late.Fadlan called Desi and just rang.

"Why not be lifted up" asked Fadlan to himself.

Meanwhile, in Desi's room there was nothing in Fadlan's room nor was there. Fadlan looked out and asked the receptionist. Apparently they had seen Desi in the pool.

Fadlan who felt something was wrong immediately ran towards the swimming pool. True apparently, Desi along with Diki and his entourage. Diki comes along with some women and men maybe they pair up.

"Des," call Fadlan from a distance.

"Yes," Desi replied in a drunken tone.

Fadlan immediately ran over to Desi who was sitting near Diki.

"What did you give my girlfriend?" ask Fadlan.

"Weh patient dong, the cave does not tell me what he said thirsty yes I already love to drink."

"You're crazy, Desi never drinks."

"Thu because I never tried it so here I teach," said Diki in a crybaby tone.

"Hot, hot dik" said Desi.

"Where's baby?" ask diki in a grim tone.

Fadlan felt something strange, it seemed like Desi had taken a stimulant.

"Biadap," heckled Fadlan while hitting Diki.

Diki fell to the floor with a bruise on the cheek.

"Don't be emotional dong bro, move aside I want to help my beloved ex," said Diki stood up while shaking Fadlan's hand.

Fadlan, who hit Diki again. None of Diki's friends dared to help because it was the rule of who started him that ended.

"Hot," said Desi as she was about to take off her clothes.

Seeing that Fadlan instantly stopped hitting Diki and went towards Desi.

"Don't Des, '" he said.

"Take to the room, brother and then in the water guyur," suggested one of Diki's friends."

Fadlan nodded his head and carried Desi. The suit used was removed to cover Desi's body.
