“You can talk outside! Poor Aca is still sick, let mba who nemenin him.”
Khalifa immediately turned her head and looked at Milla who had been playing with Aca and her youngest child, while Hilal who was originally enjoying her breakfast, now get up and invite his wife to sit outside.
Over and over again, the breath sounded so heavy from Hilal. While Khalifa, she could only be speechless with her puzzled look because she was trying to digest and think so hard, why could her sister-in-law walk that far to enter her household.
In fact, if you think since the beginning Milla is a very good person. In fact, compared to Hasna, Milla is more often close and familiar with her, but why now it turns out that woman is the one who stabbed her. What's the real deal? Inner Khalifa still could not grasp the intent and purpose of her sister-in-law.
“When did Mba Mila come here, Mas?”
“Why did you just come Fa?”
Khalifa and Hilal immediately stared at each other as the two asked questions simultaneously. Hilal took her breath so long while rubbing her face slowly.
“Why you?” hilal asked once again now the man was staring fixedly at his wife's face that looked a little paler than usual.
“You are why Mas,”
“I?” Hilal frowned while pointing at his chest, “Kamu—“
“You are too busy with haul Ning Kirana. Forgetting about me and Aca. But, when something happened with Aca, Mas blamed me instead. Why Mas? What is my fault until you come accuse me of being evil and envious even jealous of your busy life for Ning Kirana.”
“But your jealousy is excessive Khalifa! You know, Kirana was Aca's birth mother. And also, I do not every day—“ Hilal speech stopped instantly when he saw Khalifa's response who chuckled softly when he heard the answer from her.
“Yakin? Not every day? Even you always mention his name in every prostration you Mas!” Khalifa took her breath in so deep, the tightness and pain that she now felt.
“She doesn't want to meet you.”
The deg!
“M—you mean what Mas?” khalifa asked with a trembling voice.
He could hold back his tears from falling while arguing with Hilal, but after hearing the man saying that his daughter did not want to meet him, it really hurt. And now the tears have washed his face.
“She is still disappointed with you, why did you take down her mother's photo,” Hilal replied slowly and carefully.
Actually, since then Hilal had persuaded his daughter, because he had received news from Umi Nilla that Khalifa would come. However, Aca actually increasingly roared and refused hard to make Milla finally intervened and could calm her.
“D—and you're also mad at me because it's Mas?” tanya Khalifa tried to stay firm in front of her husband.
“I'm sorry Fa, but for this time, you are indeed—“
“Wrong? You want to blame me too? Is that Mas?” Khalifa stared fixedly at her husband's face with such pain, “Alright, if I'm wrong! I'm sorry. I'll return the photo to its place again. So that you can always look at him, including you. Sorry I was so sassy!”
“I apologize also to Aca, assalamualaikum,” added Khalifa, then intend to leave. But, just a few steps, suddenly his body stopped when it hit someone.
Khalifa immediately raised her head, looked meekly at that face and shed her cries in an instant.
