My Mr's. Virgin

Chapter XCV

His footsteps kept swinging. Occasionally a small hum from his lips chanting the song 'Fall in Love', from the band 'iamNETTA', while thinking of Andreas. Suddenly, his heart beat was racing. It did not feel clear pearls held in the eye pelupuk, when he recited the verse from the song.

Until the end of my world

Want you to know

Now I'm in love with you

All the end of my world

Want you to know

Now I'm in love with all about you

Until the end of my world

Fall in love

He patted his chest, massaging it to neutralize his racing heartbeat. 'Ai, Mr. Virgin. Don't even think of escaping me!'

When his feet reached the playground he had passed earlier, his eyes caught an object he was very familiar with. He ran the child closer to it.

"Hey, Juragan! Where's your boss?" He patted Andreas' Kawasaki Ninja HR2 seat. The man once told him that Kawasaki was called 'Juragan'. A smile continued to be etched on Mariana's lips. The joy he could not hide.

"Where's your boss, Juragan?" His head was looking for the whereabouts of the man. Then he found Andreas sitting on a cement bench under a mango tree, near a power pole that had been blown off by the lights.

"Even fat is invisible. Apparently he's hiding in a dark place." Slowly, he approached Andreas from behind. He tried so that his footsteps would not make a sound.

"Hhhh!"

"Babellebolala!" andreas was ambushed by Mariana from behind. The man was shocked until his butt was raised.

Mariana. However, afraid that his voice would be heard by the neighbors, he tried to hold back his lap. "What are you doing here?" the question was after the laughter died down. He anchored the body beside Andreas.

"Sit, to. Don't you see?" Andreas' voice sounded faint.

"Look, to. My eyes are not my eyes, yet" replied Mariana.

"When you know, why ask again?"

"I mean ... Why are you sitting here? Dark again. Why not go home? You're making me worry, you know?" Andreas silence. Guilt is visiting his soul.

There was no sound, only the silence of the night accompanied them. Andreas stared ahead, pensive in the chest-stifling void.

Mariana changed her sitting position, facing towards Andreas. The man then turned to look at her. Mariana smiled, then hugged Andreas. Suddenly Andreas was surprised, wanting to divorce Mariana's embrace. However, his wife tightened her embrace.

"Be quiet! Just for a moment" whispered Mariana. Slowly Andreas tried to relieve his increasingly turbulent feelings even though he did not return Mariana's embrace.

"Happy Birthday, Mr. Pirate! Thank you for being born into the world. May God's blessings and mercy be with you at every step of your life!"

Andreas smelled a smile. Her heart rate is accelerating, warming together in every strand Mariana said. Secretly her index finger peed at the pearl drenching the cheeks.

"Are you glad I was born?" tanyanya while divorcing Mariana's embrace.

"hey are. If not, who will be my husband? Don't want to be engrossed in holding 'Female Teaser Husband People', '" replied Mariana interspersed with laughter.

Andreas also laughed, remembering the face of Mother Novi, a rival of Mariana and Doctor Daniel, his ex-wife's lover.

"Why didn't you say that today is your birthday? If I knew, I'd make keik. My keik is pretty good, you know?"

"Isn't he?"

"Yes, to? You've never tried to be ignorant."

"This is like a Malay proverb 'entrance bakul lift itself'. Ha-ha-ha!"

"Ha-ha-ha!" Mariana hit Andreas' arm. "about that. Ha-ha-ha!" Andreas smile.

"Not to be so hard. After all, it's been twenty years that I've never celebrated a birthday again." There was sadness in his tone, but, as effortlessly as he tried to hide.

"It's okay. I can still make a birthday cake now. But on condition, you close your eyes. Can't see." Mariana forced Andreas to open the jacket he was wearing.

"Where is possible!"

"I have magic. So shut it off!"

"okay!" Andreas according.

"Fast fast!" Andrew opened the jacket that covered his face. "Where?" His head was wryly looking for the existence of the artificial keik that the girl said.

Mariana turned on the flashlight from her cell phone, then turned it to the ground.

Andreas' mouth is round. "Oo, so this, to the five-second keik made by Kribo. Ha-ha-ha!" The five levels are painted above the ground.

Mariana toothbrush. "Like no?"

"Like."

"Before blowing the candle, pray first. Call what you want."

"How do I blow out the candles?"

"Just erase the candle, to?"

Andreas closed his eyes. Gratitude he prays the presence of God because this year, he is not alone. A friend accompanied her to celebrate her birthday.

Andreas stood up to remove the wax that Mariana had painted using the tip of her shoe, then again anchored the body on a cement bench. Mariana also anchored the body beside Andreas. The girl snuck her shirt pocket, pulled out the contents, then handed it to Andreas.

"Take it, I bought it at the store!"

Andrew received the cup that Mariana had thrust upon him. "Thank you."

Mariana replied with a nod of her head. Suddenly no one spoke. Silence filled the silence between them. However, it was not long before Andreas returned to his voice.

"You must've heard people at home story."

Mariana nodded. "Yes, but they don't know where you lost yourself and why."

Andreas took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. "I was seven years old at the time." He started telling stories. I don't know why, just lightly mouth when facing Mariana. Maybe because of the girl's temperament that was always cheerful, a little as much as affecting her. However, said a neighbor in the village of Mariana, if the girl is always closed, shy, and not much to talk about. It seems like they don't really know Mariana or maybe Mariana is being outspoken only to the closest people.

Mariana was still waiting for Andreas' next conversation.

"That day, she took me for a walk. We use mom's motorcycle. You see that motorcycle behind the kitchen?" Mariana nodded.

"That's mom's motor." Andreas paused the story for a moment. He took a breath back. "We went around Maumere from morning until night, eating on the beach because we brought provisions. Like a picnic."

"So you've been around Maumere all day?"

"Hm!"

"Why not take me. It's good that there are friends. So you're not lonely. He-he-he!"

"All right, just tell me you want to go for a walk." Andreas bit the cup with a laugh.

"Mikel didn't come?" mariana asked starting to return to the original topic.

Andreas shakes. "Mom's word, it's for my birthday present. So Mikel wasn't invited."

"You must like to take a walk." Andreas smile. He did not wish that he was happy at that time.

"After we got home, I told you to sit here, wait for him." Andreas turned his face to the left, trying to hold back the sebak that began to squash his feelings. She bit him slowly with the cup of Mariana.

"Where's mom going?"

"He left for a while, he said there was business. But ... He never came back here again."

The atmosphere was silent for a moment. "You hate mom?"

"Hm! Very!" Mariana hugged Andreas again. The man no longer refused. It was like feeling the warmth that had been filling the void in his soul.

"Mom must have had a reason" said Mariana.

"What was the reason for leaving her child?"

"The reason you don't know. In this world, no mother can leave her child." Mariana broke her embrace.

"Who said? Too many mothers in this world are worse than animals. Many are capable of killing their children in the womb even."

Mariana silent. He had no ability to change Andreas's view. She admitted that what her husband said was true. However, not all. There are many great mothers, even prostitutes can be good mothers. The reality he saw from the late Tanta Serli, mother to his best friend Gina.

Mariana looked back at Andreas. "What I do know is that your hatred, the real evidence of pent-up longing. I'm sure, I miss you too."

Andreas said nothing more, only pensively staring into the darkness. Without them noticing, there was a pair of eyes lurking behind the acid tree, not far from where they were sitting.
