Not as Beautiful as Roses

chapter 113

" Mami Sekar is sitting here with Grandma and Mama Astrid. Mami Cia please be accompanied. "Said Laras a little annoyed as they were being patrolled.

Because from now on Sekar, Grandma and Astrid helped him clean a house that was already very dusty.

" It's okay Barrel. Let Mama come with your house."

" No, Ma. Bramantyo company owner told to clean the house ?" insinuations.

" Lhaa keep your own ?? Wife time CEO Bramantyo cleaning gini house ?"

" Ca - llon, Ma. "snakes Barrel.

" Laras, I heard it said, " cried Damian from inside the house.

Spontaneous Barrel covered his mouth with both hands.

Of course it makes Granny, Sekar, Astrid and Valencia astonished.

" Why Race ?"

" Damian Mas, always threatening me would take me by force to the ruler if I say ca_lon every time Mas Damian says I'm his wife" explained Laras half-whispering.

Asrtrid laughed at hearing that.

" Tumben you're afraid of such threats Race ?" taste Valencia.

" Mommy doesn't know what she looks like. "

" I mean ?" ask Grandma.

" The more challenged will be the more challenged to do it. " replied Laras and Astrid together.

The three women became funny laughs.

" Thank God. Already done. Want to sit in the living room what's here, Ma ?" ask Mei.

" In the guest room in May. It's not good to talk about people passing by. "

Everything moved to the guest room. There is already Prita, Lyra, Ratih and Mother who has sat down. Behind this house there is a banana tree. And some are ripe. Mom tells Joe and Ruly to take it so it can be made a snack. Mother had started cooking after buying some of the kitchen necessities she needed. Laras was surprised to see the look on Mom's face slightly changed after from the nearest stall.

" Azka's. Help me get the snacks out. "

" Yes Ma'am. "

Azka, Mei, Prita, Mahira and Laras help each other bring snacks made by Mother. There is orange ice, black coffee, milk coffee, various fried foods, and also pentol yaang was bought by Mother while in the shop there is a meatball brother who also stopped.

" Mom why ? How'd his face get bent ?" asked Laras while waiting for the last fried paisang to ripen.

" So when I went to the shop. I met Umm Iffah. "

" Then, did they say anything ma'am ?" ask Azka who came closer.

" He only said that Ummi Neni had asked for divorce from Juragan Maksum, after the departure of Mother and Laras to Jakarta. Ummi Neni feels very guilty for not being able to get my forgiveness and Laras. "

" It is not necessary to think of Ma'am" said Azka.

" But, it was also passed by Maksum. It was intentionally waiting for Mom. "

" What else is that guy ?! " called Azka annoyed.

" The Magician wanted to see you Ras. "

" Barrel ?? What's up ?"

" He wanted to apologize and ask for help to persuade your Papa to retract his report to Akbar. "

" I know for myself how Papa and Papi are. Plus now Mas Rule and Joe. This is not Laras Bu's will. "

" What's the matter why my name was mentioned ?" joe just went into the kitchen.

" Itahu tuh, juragann Maksum met Mom and wanted to find Laras. "

" What for ?"

" Begging Laras to persuade Papa to retract his report on Akbar"." Azka was upset.

" Can't be. If they hear about this. Maksum may be visited by Papa Sama Papi right now. "

" Joe. Don't muddy the mood. Let's just us know about this."

" Okay !"

" Yes, let's go out. It's not polite to let guests wait for us. "

They then brought the last fry. And meet other families.

" Ruly, shouldn't this house be sold ?" mother said suddenly.

" for sale ? Why 'Mom ?"

" Mom, this house has many memories of Ms. "Azka protest.

" Do you need money ?" ask Joe

" It's not like that. It's just, baby if left empty. "

" We can come here at once to Mom's grave."

" And make Laras meet with the maksum crime family again ? No, I'm not ridho. "

" Waduuuhh, if you've said no ridho gini. I'm backing off Mas. Horrified "cock Joe.

" Tumben can you frighten Joe ?" valencia Goda.

" I'm not happy, I like things that you don't want to happen. "

" What exactly are you thinking ?"

" That, Mas Rule, just now,, "

" Azka,," cried Laras reminded.

" Want Mas who was angry what did Laras obey ?!"

Azka was afraid.

" Why else with that family ?!!" hardik Rule.

" They want to see Mbak Laras and ask Mbak Laras to persuade Papa to revoke the report about Akbar" replied Joe.

" Will never !! I'll make sure he rots in jail " cried Pratama.

" Therefore, let this house be sold. "

" But, his memory is that of Bu. "the Azka protest.

" It is not better to renovate the Holy Mother. Probably made possible boarding. "proposed Bram.

" When it's boarding, they'll definitely stay here to check it out. "

" But Azka was right, Mom. This house has many memories, you know, " complained Laras.

" Mommy doesn't want to deal with Maksum's family anymore. I'm worried about Laras. "

" Kan Laras doesn't have to come here alone, Mom. In the future will be together like gini. We both went to the tomb first and then we can go home. Don't sell Mom."

" But Race,, "

" Holy Mother, if you intend to sell it. Let me buy it. Although I have no part of Laras and Joe's memories in this house. But, in this house my children are well educated here. They've been great kids" Pratama said.

Laras lowered his head, not expecting Pratama to buy this house. Laras held his mother's hand. So does Azka.

" Well, all right, I'm not going to sell it. But, promise me you won't come home alone without anyone accompanying you. "

" They'll be escorted even if they're married. I promise. ", insisted Nico.

" I'll have one of the prayer officials clean this house once a week" Lyra suggested.

" Thank you Aunt Lyra."

" Everything dear. "

" Ehmm, Pa. Can I take that computer ?"

" What did Mama do ? Laptop is the latest Pentium. This computer is old. It's hard to work. "called Joe.

" Some of my manuscripts are still stored on this computer. Honey, it's not continuing. "

" You forgot you had Papi the IT whiz ??" sindir Pratama's.

" Aaahh yes !! Papi, can you ask for help, right ?!"

" Of course. What doesn't make Miss Laras. "

" Isshh, Papi,,!"

" What script is Kak Laras ?" ask Mahira.

" Hira, your beloved brother is a novelist" replied Prita.

" Is it true, Prita ? Can I know the title ?"

" It's on the bookshelf behind the computer, there's the book" Azka replied.

" Can I borrow it ??"

" Of course Hira. "

Mahira immediately stood up and looked at the novel books that had been published by Laras.

" Can I take all of them ?!" exclaim Mahira amazement.

" Buy dooonnggg, Hiragana !!!" namel Rey.

" Sister Reymot is insensitive. Buy dong !!" mahira was upset.

" Which one ?"

" Take Hira. "

" Asian,, !!! " said Mahira and immediately put the novel Laras into her bag.

" I'll return it in Jakarta later. Makasi. " said Mahira while kissing Laras cheek.

" Hiragana, I dong. "tease Rey while patting her cheek.

" Ogah, brother Reymoot stingy. "

Everyone just laughs.

" Boyo Hira, Brother. I also want to read. " whispered Tiwi slowly. Which Mahira immediately answered with a nod.

" We're going home tomorrow morning, what day is it, Pa ?" ask Joe.

" Why is it ? Do you need anything ?"

" Not really Pa. "

" We'll be home after lunch. How ?" bram.

" okay. "

" Papi Nico, are you done ?" tanay Laras's.

" It's dong. "

" Thank you Papi. "

" All together. "

" Yes already. I clean up first. After that we are ready to go home " said Mother while cleaning the dish used fried.

" Buying barrel Ma'am. "

" No need. Let Mama just. " replied Ratih while helping to clean the dishes and glasses that were there.

Prita and Lyra were also quick to help. Not allowing Sekar and Valencia who look like they are not healthy.
