MY 250 MILLION PEARLS

9. 'Sister, 'Abang, 'Honey, 'Ayank, Or Direct Name?

###############

'hanaa...so when can I meet and meet your husband?'

"It's up to you when you can, Las. It's Saturday or Sunday."

'lho, indeed every Saturday or week he will definitely be able to meet me?'

"Sounds he'll work on."

'oo..so. ok. later I check again when I can play to your house. because I am the same, too, there is only free time on Sundays and sometimes saturday if not overtime.'

"You want to go home? Not wanting to meet outside?"

'why outside? it's good in your house. 'can you all know and see what your house looks like?'

"Ooo.ya already, just at home."

'tell him a little more, han. so I know more about how to deal with him when I meet.'

"Just ask me what you want to know, Lastri."

'oh, so? Okay then, tell me, what do you call her everyday at home?'

"Call? Oh. I usually just fling you over to him."

'just kamu-you? you mean, 'hey you, have you eaten yet? hey you, why come home late? hey you, can you please scratch my back?'.... What is that like?'

"Hahaha.yes it's not. Not so much."

'then?'

"Mm. You may believe it may not, I indeed during marriage never called him with a special name. Don't know, for 8 months, if you don't tell me, I'll just talk to the point to him without first calling his name."

'olalaa...lha koq can be sou? 'there will be many names that you can use to him. for example 'gold, 'brother, 'branch, 'back...or 'dear? 'ayank, maybe? or even directly on the name only... not really?'

"Not really. I've never called him with any of that. Especially using a name."

'wuaahh..so how the hell was the interaction between the two of you all this time?'

"Yes just like that."

'so-so how is it?'

"We rarely talk, Lastriiii... I spend a lot of time in the study, if he's at home. And if he is not at home, for example, is going to work, then I busy myself cleaning-it's at home.

The house is rarely dirty or cluttered. Always clean and tidy. So more often I spend time washing, ironing, cooking, cleaning the page."

'ooo...'

"If it's for you Las, maybe you can call him by one of the names you mentioned earlier to him, if you've met."

'indeed, brother lukas. when I met you I had called him that. I happen to be also younger 4 months than you, especially to him, I'll change the name to 'sir, your baby's name.'

"Your babies..."

'yes your baby. knapa, han?'

"Oh, no. It's okay."

'nah now, one more thing I want to ask.'

"Yes? What's?"

'oh, no. It's probably more than one.'

"Yes. It'sit's okay. Just ask."

'ok. she even just found out that you went to control alone.so all this time, what exactly is she...ever talked about your pregnancy?

did he also caress your stomach, talk to his son-in-law, talk to you about your son-in-law?... Does he, sorry, still touch you? cherish you, fondle you, even though you guys have never had sex again?.. may I know the answer to all of that earlier, han, what is he...'

"Never."

'huh?'

"Never, Las. All that stuff just now. Never is."

'whataa? siii time? are you serious, han? not making things up, right?'

Never mind after I got pregnant, before she got pregnant she never cheated on me. Except for the moment, sorry, hook up."

After all, it was just finished. Back to mediocrity as if nothing ever happened."

'astagaa...koq can be like that anyway?'

"It is like that."

'what's your communication been like all this time?'

"Yes so-so too."

'do you think you're not his wife??'

"Please be like that."

'ah, it doesn't make sense.'

"But that's the reality of the two of us here."

'still I can't take it yet. still sounds weird --'

"Lastriiii, he and I have common interests in children only. She fucked me, and then I got pregnant, yeah, that's the groove. There's nothing weird or excessive about it.

No need to bother you to look any further...if he is still in touch and sleeping with his girlfriend, what else do you hope you can hear from my story? It's just like that that's what happened."

'okay okay, well, I'll try to understand that. though, seriously, I don't respect hearing it.'

"Yes. I can understand that you think our relationship is either weird or weird or it doesn't make sense to you."

'yes, han. sorry if I think of it that way.'

"Hm-mh.it's alright."

'hokeee.. well, so that's what you two have been like all this time. a little bit I can already deduce.so later, I've got a clue how to meet, face, face, and face, and talk to your husband, Hannah.'

"Look easy, Las. He's not the serious type like me. The man is mediocre koq, although 11 years older than the two of us, his style of behavior and style of speech are not so much different from ours."

'ooo...'

"Yes, Las?"

'hmm?'

"If you can, you just take David. No, I mean, so that our meeting will be more crowded. It's not monotonous we're just talking to him."

'lho, instead of later even make bad brother lukas see me come bring-take girlfriend? only met 1 time with me but at once with my girlfriend?'

"It's okay. I think he could even be more sleq if there's a fellow man's guest."

'ooo..understand.okay, I will ask mas david to come with me to your house.'

"Okay, I'll wait when you guys have time."

'sip.so, this is how our call used to be, han? is there anything else you want to talk about?'

"Yes, just like this for now. We'll call again sometime."

'okay.by for now, how.take care always, and see you again next time.'

"Okeee..trims Las, you've taken your busy time calling me."

'hehehe.iya, the same. thanks to you too, han.'

After a phone call with Lastri, Hana again faced her drawing paper...

Brother Lukas? Ah, don't want to. Toou..too what exactly? Too formal? Or stiff. So what should you call her husband? A brother? Ih, this is especially. More sounds childish. Hana is sure that she is not the type of childish or pampered woman.

Name directly? The luke?

Impressed as disrespectful, almost 'unnervous'...

Butii... 'Luke'.actually and honestly this is what Hana feels most beautiful and pleasing to her feelings. She felt a sense of closeness when she called her husband's name directly without the frills of any accompanying title.

Ahh confused. Yes already, look later, break up the woman at the end of the daydream before re-concentrating yourself to continue drawing.
