Pursuing Love in the Past

Pursuing Love in the Past
Siska's Happiness



Ting.


Winda stepped out from the elevator. He walked while humming down the hallway of his apartment.


Time first time


I see you present


This feeling of heart wants you


Calm heart hear…


The raucous sound of Winda fills the silent hall of the apartment. Oneoramg who had just come out of his apartment looked at Winda while smiling.


"Aisle artists, yes", he said, giving a thumbs up.


"Biarin, wek", said Vinda by acting childish as if he did not care about the nickname that had just been pinned for him. Then she kept walking ignoring the man walking while imitating the singing style of Winda.


"Awas, lo", threatened Winda by showing a small fist of his hand to the man he did not know.


Chequek.


Winda stopped his steps when he heard the sound of Alfian's apartment door being opened. Her net was focused on the door while looking forward to the person who was going outside from the door of Alfian's apartment.


"Hai Winda", greet Siska with a fluffy smile as their beads meet. Alfian who was right behind Siska just silently followed Siska's steps while pushing 2 travel bags, then closed the door.


"Where are you going?" asked Winda while looking at the travel bag in Alfian's hands.


"You should congratulate me, dong" Siska said with a happy smile.


"Curtain, for what?" his lips with a sense of annoyance, hearing the voice of his cousin was just that he was lazy, let alone congratulate.


Siska gently stroked her still flat stomach. "Because soon you'll be an aunt."


Winda gasped, then turned his gaze towards Alfian who was still silent. "So that's right?" tanyakanya. Alfian simply nodded, without saying a word.


Vinda who was not satisfied with Alfian's answer, again confirmed the truth to Siska. "You're sure this is Alfian's son?" presumedly.


Siska who felt suspected immediately hooked the friendly hand of Alfian. "You still don't believe it?" ask with a smile. Alfian flinching, the look in his eyes he threw away in any direction.


Winda was increasingly suspicious because Alfian was acting very strange. "Obviously I don't believe it. I saw when you and Alfian did it", said Vinda scoffed.


Siska took her hand off Alfian. "That's up to you", point Siska in front of Vinda's face. "Whatever you say it won't change this kid's status." Siska held back her emotions while gently rubbing her stomach. Siska almost pulled Winda's hair to vent her anger.


"Come, we go, baby" said Siska by rewiring Alfian's hand.


Alfian did not refute even dodging from every touch of Siska. His treatment of Siska was like that of a standby husband who was very careful to keep the pregnancy of his wife.


"Come, dear", Alfian replied with a stiff smile.


"What's this?" muttered Winda. "Am I dreaming?" Winda tried to make sure with a pinch of his hand. "Aww.." the ringing. "It's not a dream."


"Bye" Siska said with a mocking smile.


Winda just kept silent while looking at the departure of Alfian and Siska with a myriad of question marks in his mind.

In Ayunda's room.


For almost 1 hour Ayunda sat in front of her dresser. The cotton in her hand seemed exhausted as Ayunda's hand repeatedly rubbed gently on her face. In his mind he was still thinking about the words of Vinda who said that Alfian and Siska were not like a married couple. It was like they were having a contract marriage.


"What is it?" Ayunda occasionally stopped his hand. "But why?" Ayunda frowned trying to think of the reason they were married. Suddenly his eyes were opened. "Oh, yes", he exclaimed as he moved from his seat. Then walk outside the room.


"Sister... Brother.." call Ayunda while going through every corner of his house.


"What's up, son?" ask the mother.


"Mother see brother Adrian?" tanyanya while wailing.


"Have you forgotten, son?" The mother tried to remind Ayunda.


Ayunda was silent for a moment. "Oh, yes. Yunda just remembered, bun. Brother Adrian again escorts sister Winda", he said. "If Yunda goes to the room first yes, bun."


The mother shook her head while looking at Ayunda who ran up to the front door of the room.


The father came to his wife. "What's up, bun?" tanyakanya.


"Yunda, from earlier nyariin Adrian, well."


"Oo, what's wrong. I heard Yunda scream."


"Assamualaikum father, mother..." Adrian suddenly came to his father and his mother.


"Waalaikumsalam.." Reply the father and mother together.


"Dad is as serious as mother. What the hell is that talking about?" Adrian stuck out his hand grabbing the fries on the table.


"Wash your hands first."


"Yes, sorry bun." Adrian clenched his hand. But suddenly he grabbed back the fries, then ran fast with the grin of a horse.


The mother shook her head. "Sister and sister are the same" said the mother.


The father who had seen Adrian's behavior, could only smile while reaching for the fries on the table.


"Dad too", exclaimed the mother who made her husband jumped in shock.


"What's wrong dad, bun?" tanyanya's confused.


"Why do you shut up, you should be angry with your son." The mother did not accept her own frustration.


Women are always right, father.

In the room Ayunda repeatedly stopped her finger to press the calling button on the screen of her phone.


"Call no, yes", he murmured. After thinking for a moment, Ayunda again abandoned her intentions. "Ah, no. He will feel most needed again."


Ayunda put the phone back in her hand on the table, now her ego is superior to her curiosity. Then he climbed on the bed, then laid his tired body all day at the opening of the restaurant.


Geck... Geck...


The sound of knocking on the door stopped Ayunda's hand from pulling the blanket.


"Yunda.", call Adrian from behind the door.


"What's up, brother?" ask Ayunda when the door is partially open.


Adrian scrunched his forehead. "Lha, said your mother who was looking for brother. What's up?" Adrian waited for Ayunda's answer by raising his eyebrows.


Ayunda reflex scratching his head that does not itch while thinking. "Ehm, Yunda forgot, brother. Yunda try to remember first, yes. I'm sleepy, nih." said Ayunda, then closed the door again.


Adrian's tongue seemed to be blocked when he saw the door closed. Then he raised his hand trying to knock back, but he paused. "Yes, come on" he said, then left.

Tonight at Alfian International Airport and Siska awaits the plane that will take them to Paris, where Siska's parents live as well as a new workplace for Alfian. The grandfather had asked Alfian to help with the work that was there, because his adoptive uncle was unable to do the job.


"Honey, I'm cold" said Siska, holding her side.


Alfian stood up from his seat, then took off his jacket and put it on Siska's body.


"Thank you, baby." Siska smiled as she looked up. Alfian's handsome face was right on top of it. The smell of Alfian's mint breathed in through Siska's breathing. Even his breath was very fresh, his mind.


Alfian did not reply to Siska's words. He sat back down while looking at the departure schedule monitor. Whether what was in Alfian's mind at the moment, Siska did not know and did not want to know. She just wanted Alfian to care about her pregnancy, that alone was enough for her.


"Come..." Alfian opened his voice after 1 hour with Siska.


Siska also moved from the seat to the gate that the operator had mentioned. Eagerly and cheerfully Siska walked with Alfian's steps. But suddenly Siska's phone rang, her eyes widened as she read the name that appeared on her phone screen. His smile also faded. He quickly shifted the red button, then deactivated his phone.


Alfian immediately turned to Siska when he heard Siska's phone ringtone, but did not hear Siska answering the phone.


"Who?" tanyanya brief.


"Papa", answered Siska lying. "The plane will soon takeoff" he continued, when he received a suspicious look from Alfian. "I can call him when we get here." Siska smiled to hide her nervousness.


Alfian just stood still and continued his steps into the plane.


It turned out that besides being handsome he was also terrible, Inner Siska.

In a poorly lit room, a man with emotion throws a mobile phone in his hand.


"Arrggg.." his screams filled the room. "Where else am I looking for money" he said riled. "Basic p***** ." He continued to curse while throwing items that could be expected, until the state of the room was like a disaster.


Ting. Kegs.


The sound of a bell ringing stopped his hand from throwing something he still held. She lazily stepped out to see who had been visiting her house tonight.


"Sia.". "his words hang when I see someone standing before him.

Elsewhere in the room Adrian is filled with the sound of his own cell phone ringtone.


"Who, anyway?" Adrian clucked in annoyance, as someone had contacted him many times while he was performing his bathing ritual. Adrian rubbed his wet hair rough with a towel on his left hand, while his right hand was busy fiddling with the phone. His eyes widened when he saw so many incoming calls.


Then he immediately contacted someone who had disturbed the bathing ritual.
