Not a Running Married

Pretend sick

Sasa sat staring at the dining box that was on the table after the Goddess left to be escorted by Rion.

“Rion's mother is very good, if Mother is also like this,” muttered Sasa while staring at the lunchbox.

Sasa opened the lunch box, then saw if in the first box there was a roasted chicken. Sasa opened the second box, Dewi brought vegetables as well. In another box there are other side dishes and also pieces of fruit.

“Paution once,” murmured again, suddenly want to cry because remember his mother.

Not because of longing, he just thought if his mother was also as good as the Goddess, surely the relationship and Rion would run smoothly.

“Why not eat?” ask Rion who just came. He pulled out a chair and sat facing Sasa.

Rion just drove her mother in search of a taxi, then went back in to see Sasa.

Sasa took a spoon and tasted processed vegetables made by Dewi, until the crystal clear circle that had been wanting to shed, finally fell from the eyelids.

“Lho, how to cry?” rion asked in surprise.

Sasa shook his head, he wiped away the dripping tears.

“Your mother is too kind, if you know that my mother is like that, do they want to accept?” sasa asked without daring to look at Rion. He then put other food in his mouth.

Rion looked at Sasa with a slow sigh, then tried to help wipe away the tears that were still dripping.

“Definitely accept, besides Mom and Dad already like you. Whatever the condition, it must accept,” replied Rion tried to be optimistic, although she was hesitant and afraid if Dewi and Danu knew the reason Sasa's mother did not like it because it came from a mediocre family.

“Lagian, who will be my parents' daughter-in-law ‘kan you, continue who will often interact with them also you, not your mother,” seloroh Rion then to make Sasa laugh.

Sure enough, Sasa laughed until he covered his own mouth.

“Have not been sad, later we think together,” said Rion tried to calm down.

That day, Sasa was seen walking from the outside of the building with a grocery bag containing needs in the office pantry. He is getting more and more excited about the day in town, as well as the job because there is support from Rion. Not to mention Danu and Dewi who have already blessed their relationship, making Sasa sure to continue his relationship with Rion.

Sasa had just set foot in front of the lobby, until the phone in his work shirt pocket rang. He stopped walking and chose to take his phone. Sasa was silent as he looked at the name plastered on the phone screen, thinking whether to answer the call.

“Jawab or not?” Sasa looked doubtful, the call was from his father.

But Sasa thought again. He had no problem with his father, perhaps answering the call was no problem.

“Halo.” Sasa finally answered the call of his father.

“Sa, how are you?” asked Abdullah from across the call.

“Sasa well,” replied Sasa who felt awkward because he felt guilty to his father.

“Good if it's okay,” Abdullah said.

Sasa was silent and just nodded his head slowly.

“You really don't want to go home?” abdullah asked from across the call, having previously been silent for a while.

“No, if Mother still wants to match me,” replied Sasa full of confidence.

“Your mother is sick, Sa. He wants to see you,” Abdullah said.

Sasa was silent to hear his father's words, was it true that his mother was sick as he said.

“Go home, Sa. Look at your mother,” pinta Abdullah.

Sasa was still silent, between still upset and not hearty. “Sasa think later, now Sasa should work,” reply Sasa in the end.

Again there was the sound of breathing from across the call, before then the voice of Sasa's father was heard again.

“Yes already, if you can go home, tell Mr first,” Abdullah said later.

“Good.”

Sasa ended the call, stared at the phone screen and looked a little guilty because his mother was sick.

“But, is Mom really sick?” Sasa was unsure of the news the father had given him.

“Am I trying to ask Aunt Sarah?” Sasa just needs to make sure before making a decision.

Sasa finally dialed Sarah's number, about to ask if the mother was really sick.

“Halo, Bi.” The call was quickly answered by Sarah.

“Halo, Sa. Tumben phone, is there a problem?” ask Sarah.

“No problem really, just Sasa want to ask something,” replied the girl. Sasa was still standing near the lobby and had yet to enter.

“Oh, just ask.” Sarah please.

Sasa seemed hesitant, whether it was polite to ask the truth of the news obtained. However, Sasa also felt that the news was not true, so he had to find out to be sure.

“Bi, is Mom sick?” tanya Sasa ventured.

There was silence from across the call, before Sarah's voice was heard again.

“I guess not, Sa. Last morning Bibi still met your mother when buying vegetables,” replied Sarah. It turned out that the woman was also confused as to why Sasa asked so.

“Really?” There was a sense of relief in knowing that her mother was not ill, but also upset that her father was lying.

“Absolutely who said your mother was sick?” ask Sarah to wonder.

“Em .. no, just ask,” replied Sasa who did not confess.

"Oh, I guess why or someone lied to you" Sarah said later.

Sasa smiled bitterly, it is true that he was lied to by his father.

"Yes already, Bi. Back to work first," said Sasa later.

"Alright, you take good care of yourself there," Sarah replied before ending the call.

Sasa was silent again staring at his phone, not expecting the father to lie. He was really disappointed with his father's attitude that had lied. Although he knew if it was possible that the mother told him, but still Sasa could not justify his father's actions.
