"Hi, are you sleeping?"
Nata's words managed to wake Lukman who was asleep for a while in the car, while waiting for him at the hotel.
"Are you ready?" The man rubbed his eyes. He opened the car door and let the woman in.
"Udah! Now look at your father!"
"Don't, dad needs rest first. 3 days he's sleep-deprived. I'm just up sleepy gini, keep the father who stayed up because nahan nikilu in his hand"
"Then who's taking care of me while you're here?" Nata knew Mr. Amar had no wife.
"My sister. We're twins"
The car started to run unhurried.
"Oijah. I just remembered Mr. Amar said he had one daughter. Is he not working? Or college?"
"She's married, her son has entered Kindergarten. So change with her husband take care of the child"
"Your twin son is one, and you are not married!" Nata found a reason to laugh at the man.
"From you, married is divorced. Still mending me!" Lukman laughs back at him, making Nata upset half to death.
"Udah said the same to me. Your life must be happy" he continued
"We're all grown-ups, Lukman, silly seduction would be useless. Women need reassurance and comfort. You are just ready for college, living yourself is still bad"
"Indeed the man who hurt you, can't he support even one village? But he's actually cheating"
Lukman's words are often true even if they sound painful. The results of eavesdropping on the clumps of mothers for an hour at the office make it like you know a lot of things. All this time there was a little splashy due to the arrival of Dion, her ex-husband who managed to make a scene. He often sent Nata flowers and waited for her after office hours. Although always rejected, her ex-husband did not seem to want to give up even though the security forces threw her out violently.
"Your father is very kind, his words are polite. Why is her son so annoying!" Nata snorted from the passenger seat.
"Mom's blood may be more dominant"
Nata recalls that Mr. Amar once told her about being sued for divorce from his wife. But he never dared to ask the old man the cause.
"If you may know, why did your mother leave?"
"Mother? He's stubborn and a little annoying!"
"It's not as thick as you sure are!"
"I'm a bitch, but I'm not gonna run away from home and leave the kids alone!"
"You mean?"
"When I went to Elementary School my mother left after debating my father. That night was the last time we saw Mom with a tote bag. Without tears, we just left. At first I wanted to take Mariam, my sister. But the girl won't leave me. We embraced fear, releasing mother in grief. Then after that our lives were a little messed up. Mom never came back. Only divorce papers were a year later to get to our house"
"Sorry..." Nata felt sorry for asking the thing that felt sure to feel sad when revealed again.
"Why should you apologize, wouldn't you leave me and our son if we got married?" Then Lukman laughed.
"You, I almost cried hearing your story. You were joking!"
"Haha. It was a long time ago Nata. I've made peace with my life"
"Judek. Quickly drive to my friend's Coffeshop on Teuku Umar road. I want to sit in front of you. Forgot to remember which caffeshop, just one time there. Let me see first. Where do you know in the middle of the street smitten with other food. The food at the hotel did not fit on the tongue" he said at length so that Lukman did not get it wrong when he sat next to the wheel.
"Say you want to sit near me"
"Whatever"
"What I heard from your office person is friendly, cool, polite. I'm the same as that jutek?"
"Because you're not like most good people"
"Yes, most good is just up front. I'm behind" he replied with confidence.
A black sedan from the latest output seemed to be trying to pick them up from the side. Then it went faster in front of them and stopped suddenly. The driver is now out to their car. A man in a black suit and wearing glasses in matching colors.
"God. That guy again!" nata seemed annoyed.
"Who?"
"My ex-husband"
"Side us through!" lukman's orders raised his head from the car window.
"No, I want to talk to Natasha" he said, starting to bang on the windshield next to Nata.
"Hi, don't do such a thing" now Lukman comes out and walks towards Dion.
"Who are you?" Tanya Dion looked at Lukman from head to toe.
"I, I will be able to shift your position. Please stay away, Nata doesn't want to see you again!" Lukman flicked his hand like a shoo.
"Nata, open! I want to talk" the man kept pounding on the windshield.
"Hi, I can't really appreciate a woman's decision. Making a mistake is still hard for people!"
"You don't interfere!" Dion was getting upset. He turned his gaze to the long-haired man with a look of wanting to invite a duel. Then started to pull up his collar.
"Hi. relax bro relax..." Lukman spread out his hands.
"This is what the hell!" Nata finally got out of his car, worried about the two stubborn men's behavior.
"You're Dion. I have reminded you repeatedly. Don't bother my life anymore. This is the umpteenth time you intercept me in the middle of the road. Not to mention coming to the office and making me ashamed. What the hell do you want?!"
"Pliz Nata, I want us to refer. I promise to fix myself. I still love you.. That woman keeps teasing me. I'm khilaf..."
Lukman gave a little distance so that the two creatures who had loved it could solve their problems.
"No! Marrying you is a mistake, I will not repeat the same mistake. This is the last time I'll remind you not to come after me again..!"
Nata pointed his index finger, a sign he did not play around with his warning.
"No! Didn't I tell you? Before you get married again, you are mine! And I'll keep following you around until you get back in my arms again!"
The man didn't want to lose, Dion's threat now sounded even more terrifying. He understood the unyielding character that the man had. Nata is already caught off guard by her ex-husband's behavior that follows her wherever she goes. And now that she's ready to haunt as long as Nata is alone and not married again, she won't stop. I had to do something, he thought. Then a moment's look at the replacement driver.
"You mean?"
"We're married..."
Hearing that remark, Lukman realized that Nata was preparing a drama with them both main actors. Then for a moment he understood that he had to act something to support the success of the story.
"I don't believe it!" Lukman said approaching, starting to try to involve himself in the debate.
"If you marry, the office knows. A Retno Muliasari couldn't possibly let her daughter get married without a fancy reception" Dion was too smart to believe anything for granted.
"Our wedding reception is very luxurious Dion. Then what's the outcome? I was traumatized by a massive celebration and then it sank. We decided to marry Sirri. Getting married in a country is too complicated, especially if you want a divorce later and your partner is troublesome like you. We chose to get married secretly, even my employees don't know"
Dion doesn't believe what his ex-wife admits.
"A fuss like this, your husband?"
"So who do you think this sweet guy is?" Nata approached Lukman while embracing his arm from the side. Then put his head on the man's shoulder.
"It could be your bodyguard. Or your driver" he replied, looking a little longer at Lukman, who was tidying up his collar.
"Do you think I'll just replace Mr. Amar while he's the best driver we've got?"
Nata then more tightly embraced Lukman, while looking at him unblinkingly like a person in the middle of a kasmaran. And Lukman replied with a similar look. Then Nata landed a lightning kiss on the man's cheek.
"I love this man" he said convincingly.
"You?" Dion's words seemed to be stuck in the throat. He clenched one hand to press his mouth as if in disbelief. He turned to his car and slammed the door hard. The man passed from their sight, along with the car traveling at high speed.
Nata hastily removed his hand from Lukman's arm.
"Damf. It's so salty your cheeks!" then pat her mouth with her hands.
"Who told me to ganjen"
"Well to like"
"Astaghfirullahaladziemisu... If you don't remember your sins, that's it!" the man returned to the car followed Nata pursing his mouth on the back.
"Udah hungry as it were, keacapean play drama. My friend's place is still far away, we go ahead there, yes, there is a Rice Padang Restaurant!" Nata changed his mind.
Both eat like fidelity. Both creatures have the same peculiarity, a hobby of eating a lot but fat does not.
"Your acting was good" Lukman praised as he gave his two thumbs up.
"You too. He got so upset. I messed up a dozen times, only this time it seemed like he was very upset without much resistance. And I'm just looking at you and imagining it's Lee min Ho, he's gone!" then the woman laughed.
"You think he'll be back?"
"That's it..! Looks like I should ask you for a favor. I have known Dion for 6 years and memorized his character who did not quickly believe what he saw. He will definitely return to dispel his doubts"
"So?"
"Now that I will accompany you to change your appearance to make it a little convincing, your hair must be cut!"
"No! I like this look" he said with his mouth full.
"Don't complain much. Your father must be sad if you don't want to help me!"
"Basic women. Always trying to win by yourself!"
"But you don't have any business and have to go back to the office?"
"Easy. There's Rani there"
****
This morning Lukman came in a very different appearance. The hair that had been neatly trimmed with a beard and mustache had been shaved, only a little sideburn and thin fur on his chin, the man looked fresher. The sturdy nose and jaw lines were increasingly apparent, perfecting his sharp eyes.
In addition, Nata has bought several pairs of expensive clothes to support the appearance of her husband pretended to look very charming. Today he wears brown cream pants made of denim, combined with a long shirt with long sleeves folded up to the elbows.
They agreed to remain ordinary in the office like a driver and boss. But it would change if Dion suddenly appeared all of a sudden. From behind the wheel, Nata could not help but look at Lukman from the windshield.
"Hi, I know you're looking at me"
Lukman's remarks made Nata panic like someone found shoplifting.
"Rubbery"
"Tell me I'm handsome"
"Like you"
"Why is your answer if it's not up, Like you. Tar I invite marriage really you answer that anyway"
"Whatever"
"Haha. You're adorable Nata with Coco"
"Never call that name in front of another employee!"
"Yes, I won't. Most would just call, honey"
"Yahoooo!!!!" Nata hit the driver's shoulder from behind.
"Where are we today?"
"Almost look at your father first. Today's meeting was postponed until the afternoon, so I was empty until noon"
"Alright, let's see your father-in-law!"
Nata did not respond this time. Surely Mr. Amar will be a good father-in-law. But not with his son, surely he will be a husband sucks. Then he began to shudder in horror at imagining it.
"Eh. What does your dad like to bring?"
"Holy son-in-law! My dad always asks for a son-in-law! So you just take yourself"
"Lukmaaaaaan....! I'm serious!"
"I'm serious too!" then laugh briefly and refocus on driving.
