MY LECTURER DUREN (COLD WIDOWER )

Undecided

The morning sun began to emit its rays, I woke up when I heard Mas Nathan's voice speak a little loudly on the phone. I saw him walking back and forth in neat clothes, his mobile phone stuck to his ear.

Holy hooch! i'm misfortune. What kind of wife am I.

"Yes..." Called him.

Nathan turned his head, he realized that I was awake.

"Hello, baby for a second..." Whispers slowly.

Then the attention of Mas Nathan was again distracted by the person across there.

Who called him this early in the morning?

"okay. Well if that's what mom wants, I'll let you know later." Mas Nathan turned off the phone, his tone looked irritated.

"Why Mas?"

"Darling, I'd like to ask you a favor. But if you can't be okay. You can refuse this."

My forehead frowned, not usually Mas Nathan asked for help like this.

"What do you ask for, Mom?"

"Gea's mother, she insisted on meeting Arsy. Yesterday I managed to get him to leave. But he still wants to meet. I can't tell Arsy to meet him alone. Can you accompany them?" Nathan looked at me doubtfully.

Oh so that's... Nathan must be afraid that Arsy will be taken away by their family.

Accompanying Bu Gea?

From the way he looked at me yesterday, it was obvious that he didn't like me.

But... Nathan is in need of help right now, and I want to be useful to him.

"Well I can. When's time?"

"Are you serious?" Mas Nathan asked with a look of disbelief.

I nodded trying to convince him.

"Thank God. Sorry you have to be stuck in a situation like this. But I have to go to college." Nathan sighed.

"Just calm down, leave it to me."

A wide smile was engraved on the handsome face of Mas Nathan. I don't think I need to take any more vitamins when I see a dawn attack like this. Glare and warm.

"Thank you, honey. It's time today, he'll be waiting for you at Arsy's school."

Huh huh? I stood straight up so surprised.

Is it time today too? well I have to prepare a lot of patient stock to face Bu Gea.

"OK, Mum. Yes, I am calm."

"Then I leave, it's too late. You don't have to take me down."

"Hemm, be careful, ma'am."

Cup. A warm kiss landed on my forehead. Then Nathan passed away.

I began to think about what I should prepare to meet Bu Gea later.

Daylight

By the time I got to Arsy's school, Ms. Gea was already waiting there.

"Assalamualaikum, ma'am."

"Waalaikumsalam." said Bu Gea flat.

I tried to smile at him, he replied even if it was just a thin smile.

"Arsy hasn't come out yet, Mom?"

"Not yet, he said in a moment."

"Oh."

After that it was quiet. No one talks between us. Ms. Gea seemed to be busy with her phone. Thankfully, he didn't come with Bella either. Could be my high blood if I faced Bella too.

Not long after, Arsy's school bell rang, and the boisterous sounds of many children were earthy. Arsy is seen out of class, along with his other friends.

"Mama..." Arsy hugged my waist.

"Hello baby, how was it today?"

"Seruuu, Arsy managed to make a sentence loh." said Arsy enthusiastically.

"Well smart."

Arsy laughed happily because I praised him. However, his laughter stopped when he saw Bu Gea watching him.

"Who is he, Mah?" whisky Arsy.

I glanced at Bu Gea, and gestured her to come closer.

Ms. Gea understood, she walked up to us.

"Hello, Arsy. I'm your Oma." said Ms. Gea.

"Omma? I already have Oma."

Ah, maybe Arsy meant my mama.

"Arsy, this mother is also your Oma, her name is Bu Gea. Come on salaman."

Arsy followed my words, he stretched out his tiny hand, then kissed the back of Bu Gea's hand.

"What if we go for a walk now?" asked Bu Gea gently.

Arsy looked at me, asking for approval.

"Arsy wants? mom will come along too."

"You!" sahut Arsy enthusiast.

Ah, it's great to see Arsy enthusiastic like this. He must have felt lonely, because these few months Mas Nathan was busy. Our family rarely went together.

I have to talk to Mas Nathan tonight.

🌸

Mrs Gea took us to the mall. Arsy was engrossed in the playground, while me and Bu Gea waited for him while occasionally chatting.

Bu Gea looked at Arsy who was playing with teary eyes.

"If Jihan were alive, she would be so happy. Arsy is very similar to Jihan. Look at her hair, her hair color is the same as Jihan's."

Deg. Some are bleeding but not bleeding. Whatisit? my liver. Patience Nindi... Jihan's Arsy's mother. It's natural that they look alike.

Ms. Gea turned to look at me.

"Anindira, thank you for taking good care of Arsy. Sorry for my words the other day. I was just emotional because Nathan always forbade me from seeing Arsy." said Bu Gea, wiping my hand.

"Yes, Mom. Take it easy, I'll love Arsy like my own son."

A sincere smile was engraved on Bu Gea's face, even her gaze was now softened unlike yesterday during a visit to the house.

"I used to blame Nathan for Jihan's death. Maybe that's why Nathan hates my family. His uncle Jihan even hits Nathan while in the hospital, and wants to imprison Nathan. But that's not the case, because there's strong evidence that Jihan killed herself."

I was so surprised to hear that. So there's such an incident?

Too bad, Nathan, deserved him to be psychically ill.

"Sorry, Mom. What about Bella? does he really like Nathan?"

Ms. Gea rubbed her tears that began to fall, "Ah yes, Bella. The boy had always liked Nathan. Even he was defending Nathan, when he was hit by his uncle. I also told her to marry Bella, but Nathan refused right? he prefers you."

I fell silent, the broken threads now began to connect and made me understand. So that's the whole story. I won't get it from Nathan. Because he is so closed to his past.

"Anindira, I would like to ask you a favor. Please persuade Nathan so I can see Arsy often. He's the only memory of Jihan. I don't mind Nathan marrying anyone, as long as my grandson Arsy is well taken care of. You can help me, right?"

The word 'Mother' made me melt. Ma'am Gea is a mother. She had already lost her child, and now she was struggling to keep seeing the flesh and blood of her child.

Arsy doesn't even know Bu Gea. That means that all this time Mas Nathan never brought them together.

What am I supposed to do?

Do I have to help Bu Gea by talking to Mas Nathan?

But what if Mas Nathan gets angry when I interfere?
