Not as Beautiful as Roses
the exam is over
"Mom should know yes, I am pregnant with a grandchild mother of children who will bleed the Devantara." Sherly.
Rita was shocked by Sherly's words. "What's? what do you mean Sherly!!"
"Mom, I'm the same Arka has done a lot of things during my courtship so it's natural that now I'm pregnant." Reply Sherly.
"The arka!! clearly now it is the same Mamah what this woman means!!" firmly Rita.
Arka seemed silent not answering anything.
"I'm sorry, Mah." Rose. The rose chose to leave the commotion.
"The arka!! answer Mamah!" yell Rita.
"Yes, Mah yes! I'm the same Sherly always doing things out of bounds!!" answer firmly Arka.
Because it was ignited emotions Rita slammed the dishes and glasses on the dining table.
Prangg!!. The plate and glass cup fell scattered on the floor.
"Rush! you are making Mama ashamed! your attitude is so unworthy! absolutely not worthy of being in the Dewantara family!!" yell Rita.
Sherly smiled cynically at the chaos that was happening.
'Good, my plan worked.' Inner Sherly.
"Well, please don't get this kind of emotion, I can make sure everything's okay." Arka.
"What else do you want to explain, huh? everything is clear! you're a bastard! no honorable Arka! when your wife is pregnant with your child, you impregnate other women too!! isn't enough just one woman in your life huh!!"
"Mah! enough's enough! I don't want everything to happen like this either!! yell Arka.
"Does the Rose already know all this Arka?" ask Rita in a high tone.
Again Arka was silent.
"Ark Jawab!!"
"Yes, the Rose knows everything Mah!!" reply Ark.
"Excession!" Rita got up from her seat but suddenly her body could not be controlled and collapsed.
"Your!!" Arka looks hysterical.
Ainah who had been stalking the commotion suddenly came out from one direction.
"Bi! help me get Mama to the room!" said Arka firmly.
Arka and Inah carry Rita to her room.
"Sorry Arka, Arka is a stupid man Mah." Arka.
Arka's back to Sherly's.
"Why are you suddenly coming and screwing things up!" arka shouted at Sherly.
"Mas, I came here just to hold you accountable! don't want to be nice it's my turn to get pregnant you pretend to forget what we've done." Sherly.
"Yes but why do you have to dismantle everything in front of you!!" yell Arka.
"Mending now you're home."
"Okay, I'm coming home but if you keep dodging I'll keep terrorizing your family. Hye!" said haughty Sherly.
**
Arka yelled at Roses many times until finally the Roses came down from the top floor.
"Gosh, you did it in the room! you didn't see Mom fall unconscious earlier, did you?" arka.
"What! why did you Mas?" The rose ran straight to her in-laws room.
It was seen Rita who was still lying limp from the shock of hearing the news earlier.
The rose gently clasped Rita's hand. "Well, wake up there's a rose here." No tears Roses were shed could not bear to see her in-laws like that.
Rita slowly opens her eyes, then asks Arka to leave her room.
"Now you go Arka, Mamah doesn't want to see your face here!" firmly Rita.
"But-but Mah?"
"Go!! You're really disappointed in me!!!" yell Rita.
"Well, already. Don't shout Mamah just woke up. Mas, I'm asking you to come out first maybe Mama needs some time." The rose tries to be the mediator again.
"Yaudah, I go to the office first." Arka walked out of the room.
"My mistress also excuse me for coming out." Hedge. Now only Roses and Rita live there.
Rita looked into both eyes of the Rose.
"Why did you cover all this from Mamah?" ask Rita.
"Roses, Roses just don't want everything to be like this Mah. Mamah and Mas Arka had a big fight." Answer Roses.
"You still don't think about all this, Arka really makes Mamah embarrassed."
"At that time Mas Arka once said Mah, if he was not sure the child in Sherly's womb was his child."
"But he admitted that she was the same woman who often did outside the boundaries of the Rose."
"Yes, the Rose knows the Mah. The only way is DNA testing." Answer Roses.
"It's not that easy as a rose. The baby's DNA test that's still in the womb is a huge risk, we could have accidentally killed the baby."
Silent rose.
"Why can you be this patient? why Roses?" ask Rita again.
A faint smiling rose covered his wound. "Roses just follow the path that God has made Mah. As long as the Roses can still be patient the Roses must continue to be patient."
"Arka is so stupid, wasting a good woman like you. You know this is not easy for you. What else Arka is very much different from Dika. It was loving, gentle, and always understanding." Rita.
"Hmm, this is all for the sake of trust from Mas Dika as well." Reply Roses.
