Pearls For Wood

She is My Wife

We have arrived at the wedding hall of papa Surya's business partner. And how surprised I was, when I saw the figure who had met me this morning at the Clinic now standing before my eyes.

"Hi Tiara, nice to meet you back here. Good night, Mr. Bayu." brother Bayu just smiled.

"sister Panji is here too?" I try to calm down.

"Yes, is it true that the saying that the world is not as wide as the leaves of moringa, or maybe we are a match, Ra? Owh, calm Mr. Bayu, I'm just teasing my sister." said brother Panji.

"Sister?" brother Bayu is very confused with this one human being. Of course, I never even told her about Panji or anyone else.

"Sir Panji, we'll excuse you. Sis Bayu, let's find mama Sekar and papa Surya!" I pulled Bayu's arm to take him away from the person I love so much. Sis Bayu noticed the look on my face that suddenly changed.

"Where are you guys from? Why long?" mama Sekar asked as we began to sit beside her.

"Mama who deliberately left us since home." protested brother Bayu annoyed.

"Ssttt, don't be noisy! Shame to see people!" papa Surya said, speaking up.

"Tiara? What's wrong with you, son? Why are your eyes watering? Did Bayu hurt you?"

"Mama?" elak brother Bayu did not accept.

"Wood, quiet! What are you doing with your wife?" ask mama Sekar seriously.

"Mama, Tiara's okay. Earlier, just because it was exposed to dust grains, it will also heal itself." said I do not want to aggravate the situation.

"Owh, hello sir Surya Pradana?" someone said to papa Surya.

"Mrs. Dasson's? It's nice to meet you here. Let's join!" said papa Surya sparkling shook his hand and came to sit back after his partner sat down.

"Is she your wife?" tanyanya looked at mama Sekar.

"Yes, she is my wife. And they are my sons and daughters-in-law." replied papa Surya introducing us.

"Owh, thank God you have two beautiful angels" he said praising me and Mama Sekar.

"Not two, but three, sir." added papa Surya made him shocked.

"Ahhh, apparently a Surya Pradana has many women?" the answer made our eyes look at each other.

"No. That's not what I meant. She is a one-month-old baby who is our first grandchild." explained papa Surya. A moment of crisp laughter came out of Mr.'s mouth. Dasson's.

"Solar, you played me apparently" he said with relief.

"No."

"What is Bayu? It was very gallant, like a duplicate of a Surya Pradana when he was young." he said to Bayu's brother.

"Yes, sir." replied Brother Bayu with a nod.

"certain. He's my son. It must look like me."

"If Bayu is not married, I would be willing to propose you to my daughter" he said with a disappointed look.

"Unfortunately sir, I am married and already have a little daughter, among us."

"Yes, I'm really sorry now" he said still with a disappointed look.

"No need to regret, let's enjoy the dish, Mr."

"Daddy!" the voice of a woman screamed and approached our table.

"Gia?" said Bayu a little doubtful.

"baby? Seriously this is Bayu?" without a doubt the woman named Gia approached Bayu's sister, hugging and kissing her who was still loyal to her initial position, sitting down.

'I've never even touched his face.' I grumbled in my heart. Mama Sekar who noticed the tinge of disappointment on my face could only faintly smile.

"Gia, sit down baby!" mr Pinta. Dasson's.

"Sorry everyone. Bay, how are you? We haven't seen each other for a long time" said Gia.

"certain. I was his girl friend during college in London, aunt." she replied.

'His girl friend? Whatdoes thatmean? Boyfriend or TTM?' my mind churns.

"Mama, papa, Tiara let's go to the toilet for a minute."

"Do you need a mama, son?"

"No ma, Tiara alone." I started to stand up and stared at Bayu's brother for a moment.

"Don't be long and bright back!" said brother Bayu smiling. I left the table without answering Bayu's words.

"Is he your sister, Bay?" ask Gia with her PD.

"No, Gia. She is my wife." replied Bayu flatly.

"Uhkkk. uhukkk . . .." Gia chokes when she hears Bayu's statement.

"Be careful when you eat, baby!" said Mr. Dasson gave him some water.

"Sorry!"

I sat down on a chair in the garden that was far from the crowd. Ignoring the cold that pierced my body.

"He didn't even introduce me to his girlfriend. She also let other women touch, even kiss her" Tiara said riled up.

'Tiara, what do you expect from her? You should have realized! Who are you in Bayu's eyes? You are so stupid, Ra!' inner shouting. I looked up when I suddenly felt a suit warm my body.

"Why sit here, alone? Is it so hot inside, that you're looking for the wind here?" he said that he was sitting next to me. "Are you sorry about the decision you're making now?" added again.

"What did Mr. Panji say? I'm doing fine. And, not regretting anything." elakku on the accusation of brother Panji.

"You could have lied to your husband or someone else. But not with me, Ra." he said.

"Sir Panji I'm sorry, I have to be right back. They must be worried about me, I've been here too long." I stood up and took off the suit that wrapped my body and returned it to the owner.

"Near! How long are you going to be like this? Keep avoiding and hurting your own feelings." Instantly his words managed to make my steps stop, but after hearing until the end of the sentence, I stepped back.

I approached the table where my family was. However, I no longer see the figure of Gia and Mr. Dasson was there.

'Maybe I'm home.' I thought.

"Why is it so long?" ask brother Bayu.

"Antri." I said lying.

"Let's go home son, it's night." take Mama Sekar. We went to the altar and congratulated the bride and groom. Then, head for the car to get back home.

During the car until entering the room, the two of us just kept quiet without speaking a word. I'm busy thinking about Bayu and vice versa too, maybe. We just think as we please without any intention to talk about it.

"Sleep! Tomorrow we'll go in the morning." I almost forgot that tomorrow we're going on vacation with the family. I got up and went to the closet.

"I asked you to sleep, why are you packing? Let's go to sleep, I'm so sleepy."

"Sir Bayu just sleep, I'll do it myself" I replied insisting.

"Tiara? Can't you if you don't argue with me just once? I'm so tired now, we're packing tomorrow and I promise I'll help you." I realize that this whole day Sis Bayu is very busy, even I feel tired of it myself. We went back to lying in the bed and sleeping.

"Sir Bayu, don't come near! I'm sultry." I feel uncomfortable even trying to distance myself from the body of sister Bayu.

"Hurry to sleep!" said brother Bayu whispering in my ear makes me feel amused at that time. Without saying, sister Bayu hugged my body so tightly that she fell asleep. However, it is not with me who is still confused by the attitude of sister Bayu himself lately.

"Sir Bayu? Who am I to you?" I waited a long time, but still there was no answer from brother Bayu, until in the end both my eyes were closed in the warm embrace of sister Bayu.
