Mist of Love
Chapter 22.DISILLUSIONED.



"Said you didn't go to work two days Tem, why is it neat now?"


Ask Mom who saw Temmi looking dressed in a neat shirt,


"I'm going to Hendrawan's place, ma'am, there's something I need to talk to him about,"


Answer Temmi,


Mother who just finished cooking for their morning meal that bad luck was approaching Temmi who is now sitting on the dining table chair while starting to busy wearing shoes,


"Eat first, catch a cold, then,"


Said Mother,


"His tea needs Temmi's drink, eat it later, come home from Hendrawan's place,"


Temmi seemed to then stand up and greet the mother,


When touching his mother's hand, Temmi saw the hand of the woman who had given birth to him was seen a lot of knife scratches on the fingers, and,


Temmi looked at the mother for a moment while then holding her mother's hand,


"It seems that returning to the kitchen after so many years is quite difficult, ma'am,"


Said Temmi anyway,


Mother who heard the words of Temmi can only seem to smile thinly, she knows if Temmi is trying to remind me how many years this mother lives very well, he said,


Morning wake up already there is breakfast, the house is clean and neat, even the laundry has been dried and the flowers in front were well maintained,


So many years, it is not necessary to have a domestic assistant but all the homework is done well,


Not to mention Mother also does not need to spend money to pay, of course it is a thing that you have never realized properly, Mother has never realized,


"Temmi helped treat the wound, ma'am, where's the medicine box?"


Temmi cawing, chirping,


It used to be that the medicine box was always placed in the family room next to the dining room, but it seems to have been moved, probably by Mbak Laras, he said,


"Here, it's okay, I can treat it myself later, if you have an important appointment, it's okay to leave now,"


Mother said, releasing her hand whose finger was scarred by a knife,


Temmi hugged her mother for a moment,


"It's not too late if you'll see Mbak Laras again and apologise,"


Temmi Whisper, Temmi,


Mother seemed only speechless, not reacting to anything, only her chest that felt rumbling because it remembered all about Laras,


Laras, the girl, who had suddenly entered her family a few years ago, the one where her desire to match Yoga to the son of a friend of her husband who was then working in one of the state-owned companies finally fell apart,


My mother's disappointment when Yoga decided to choose a girl from a simple family where her parents did not have any position,


The days after Yoga marries Laras are also the hardest days of Mom's life,


He not only often gets insinuations and disparaging scorn from his extended family because it is considered only able to be different from ordinary people, but also with ordinary people,


Meanwhile, most of them always get a daughter-in-law from a distinguished and successful family, which to tell even their privileges as if endless, as it is,


Mother sighed, she hated Laras so much because he was a failure that she could always see, and of course it was very annoying,


But...


Now...


"Temmi go first Ma'am, maybe Husin will come bring Temmi's clothes, just tell him to help clean my clothes to the room yes Ma'am,"


Said Temmi,


Mother nodded, saying yes,


"Yes, go, be careful,"


Said Mother,


Temmi smiled, then he walked towards the exit connected to the garage to pick up the car.


...****************...


Arin and Laras appear to be sitting in a room that is dominant in black and gray,


The clean and clean room looks very comfortable,


Said a female staff while putting two cups of tea that steaming scented jasmine, the distinctive aroma of Tegal tea certainly, because it is said Lawyer Hendrawan is the birth of Tegal, Tegal,


"Yes, we'll wait, thanks Ma'am,"


Said Arin,


The female staff smiled kindly, then bowed her head away from the room,


Laras himself was more busy enjoying the atmosphere of the lawyer's room, especially the large photo hanging in the room,


The lawyer's wedding photo is so elegant, that it seems so proud he put it there,


Laras sighed,


It is fortunate that the woman who married a successful and good man, especially plus the woman is also proud of him to want to be shown to the whole world if he belongs to the man, he said,


Yes, of course she is an unusual woman, a very special woman, an unlikely woman like Laras, who is only accepted in her husband's family as a doormat,


For a moment he felt his chest hurt again, his side of his heart was torn apart again,


But...


"He's dead, but still laid there, surely Lawyer Hendrawan is very loving the figure of his late wife,"


Arin suddenly, though,


Laras turned his head towards Arin beside him,


"Who is Rin?"


Ask Laras, though,


Arin turned towards Laras for a moment, then looked back at the photo on the front wall they were sitting on,


"Hendrawan's lawyer's wife, I heard she was one of the victims of a plane crash a year ago that Ras didn't find,"


Laras who heard it seemed to gasp, he looked at the photo of the bride lawyer Hendrawan again,


"It must be very hard to let go of our loved ones while the fate is unclear,"


Said Arin,


Laras nodded, though,


Yes, of course, let alone let go of those who make happy, sometimes which obviously does not make happy, many people are unable and even prefer to remain trapped in toxic relationships until the end of their lives.


Arin then grabbed the cup of tea whose scent smelled so fresh, the woman inhaled deeply the aroma of tea from the hot steaming cup,


"Drink the tea Ras, Tegal tea, the aroma is very distinctive,"


Said Arin,


Laras nodded, though,


"Yes, Mas Yoga used to be a working time often get this tea as a gift from his coworkers who are Slavic,"


Said Barrel,


Arin nodded, though,


The barrel reached out its hand to grab his part of the tea cup, which along with it suddenly sounded a knock on the door,


Arin and Laras immediately turned to the door of Lawyer Hendrawan's room, where the female staff who had appeared again, and he looked to bow politely,


Laras and Arin nodded simultaneously, then the female staff seemed to be talking to someone in front of the room,


Before long the door was opened wide, the female staff allowed someone in front of the room to go inside,


And...


The barrel seemed to stand up,


He was surprised to see who was coming,


No different from the person who is now standing in the doorway of Hendrawan's room, the figure was equally surprised to see Laras there.


"Baa... How come?"


Mumbled as if in disbelief.
