Pursuing the Love of the Widower

Towards the First Date

“Mbak, kok cry?” ask Genthis. His heart was full of guilt. Gendhis just remembered, that he had once suspected Sinta who had more feelings for Manggala.

“Sorry, Ma'am. So Mbak really ...” Genphis did not continue with her words.

"What's? Oh, geez. I'm moved because you finally moved on from Mr. Chand." Sinta wiped away the tears that fell on her cheeks immediately. He forced a sweet smile in front of Gendhis, and showed that he was fine.

"Yes, geez. Sinta's mom is feeling really smooth. It is like sifted flour" said Gendhis, smiling with relief.

“Ah, you are here." Sinta tried to respond to Gendhis jokes, even though she wanted to scream in her heart. "So, what do you want to order, Dhis? Chivy. The elder has been waiting for you,” asked the girl again, pointing towards the spa employee who was standing between them. The face that had once looked sad, changed instantly.

Sinta again showed off her cheerful sweet face. “So, what did you order? Complete package only yes?” he broke it and put his hand on Gendhis's arm.

Genphis nodded wrongly. “I follow Mbak Sinta aja. More experienced people,” he said resigned.

“OK!” exclaim Sinta with passion. He directed Genthis to keep following the steps of the spa employees.

Three hours long, the time spent by the two girls to complete a series of treatments. Starting from head to toe, got a touch that spoiled them like a king's daughter.

For Gendhis who had never performed such a ritual, it was initially felt irate. However, in the end he felt very satisfied and happy.

“Should have been from a long time ago I dandan the same do beauty rituals kayak gini,”, said Gendhis when pecking himself in front of a large mirror.

“You are so beautiful, Dhis. Mr. Manggala must have been pangling when he saw you,” sajung Sinta.

“Mbak ...” Gendhis immediately turned to the sweet and meek girl. Gendhis felt overwhelmed, because he got a co-worker and friend like Sinta. Although they are new to know, but Sinta can be a very good friend. “Let me pay ya, Ma'am," break up Gendhis. He was about to step towards the cashier's table.

“Eh, no!” prevent Sinta.

“Eits! It is forbidden to refuse sustenance, Mother." Gendhis glared, putting on as much face as possible. However, she looks like one of the female horror characters in old school movies. “Please, Mbak.” Gendhis, who felt that his expression did not scare Sinta, immediately changed the look of his face to be much more refined, even looking clear.

“Gosh.” Sinta laughed amusedly at Gendhis's strange demeanor. Finally, he was willing to budge and accept the tomboyish girl's treat. Sinta had no idea that Genphis was forced to drain the savings, which she had been keeping under a pile of socks. The reason Gendhis kept it there was because the wallet and the bed were no longer safe.

After returning from the spa, Gendhis had invited Sinta to stop by Grandma Sri's house. However, the sweet girl refused subtly. “Bahat, today my grandmother made a special meal, Ma'am," said Gendhis disappointed.

"Next time, Dhis. The bike will be used with my sister." Sinta found a reason to go home soon.

"Alright, Ma'am. Careful, yeah. Thank you for letting me know today." Gendo smiled warmly.

"Thank you also because you have already been treated with the balloons" replied Sinta. "Hopefully the date is smooth. I'm waiting for the thrill story tomorrow at the office." As per saying so, Sinta immediately said goodbye. He drove his bike quickly and did not look at Genphis again.

Gendhis himself did not enter immediately. He stood glued for a moment on the sidewalk while watching Sinta who was already invisible again. A speck of doubt appeared in the girl's heart. Is he wrong for accepting a date from Manggala?

With a gontai step, Genphis entered the living room of her grandmother's house. The shadow of Chand and Manggala's handsome face, alternated in his mind. “I have to how?” hiss the girl shriveled. Although Chand has behaved very badly, but it was so difficult to forget. At first glance, the image of the beautiful woman who was with Chand at the cafe a few days ago came to pass in the mind of Gendhis. "Geez, can I compete with a woman as beautiful and graceful as that?" muttered.

When Gendhis was in a turmoil that he created himself, the grandmother came out from the inside of the house with Ceu Imas. It seemed, the two of them were about to leave, if they saw the appearance of the grandmother and Ceu Imas who were a little more menor than usual. However, the second step of the hebring woman was immediately stopped, when she saw the appearance of Gendhis who also looked different.

"Oh, I don't think it was Gendhis. It's beautiful like this" said Ceu Imas unconsciously.

Immediately, Grandma Sri patted her arm. "So, my grandson hasn't been that pretty?" his protest.

"Euleuh, that's not it, Mak. I mean tea, this is Ma'am Gendhis looking at pangling. He is not ordinary and kayak gini," said Ceu Imas defending himself.

Grandma Sri watched the face of Gendhis intently. He even approached the grandson, then cupped the two cheeks of Susena's second daughter. Grandma Sri moved Gendhis face left and right repeatedly, until Gendhis was upset.

"Grandma what the hell?" gendhis protest. He immediately distanced his face, until it slipped out of the grandmother's hand.

"What are you wearing? How is it different, Neng?" asked Grandma Sri while frowning the eyebrows.

However, Gendo did not answer. The girl only exhaled a short breath. He looked at the grandmother for a moment, before turning to Ceu Imas. "Where's Ceu Imas going? Like a old-time tambana group wear that uniform."

"Gee! This is the Taklim ceremony uniform here at DKM. New uniform. Just paid off," Grandma Sri replied accompanied by laughter.

"I haven't, Grandma. Only one more installment," said Ceu Imas.

"Every month you get money from me," said Granny Sri.

"Ah, this mother doesn't know. It was my third child, Chandra, and the cost of his lifestyle was high. Gasoline, quota, same pocket money if you go to school," said Ceu Imas reasoned.

"Ah, you said to come with the arisan in Bu Jujun huh? There will be a big pay per month, Mas." Grandma Sri tidied up the Muslim dress uniform she was wearing. Ceu Imas, already about to respond, when the sound of ringing mobile phone belongs to Gendhis.

The name of the Manggal is on the screen. Genphis answered immediately. "Yes, Ngga."

"Hi, Dhis. I'll pick up at half-six. Now I'm more otewe, but the road's a little jammed."

Instantly, Gendhis was wide-eyed. It was five hours and ten minutes. "God. I-yes. I'm ready, "Gendhis replied grimacingly. He turned off the phone accidentally so nervous. Genphis also stood up.

"Why, Neng?" ask Grandma Sri.

"Wire, Grandma! I don't know what to wear yet, "fret Gendhis while pacing.

"That's why you're wearing clothes."

"I'm going on a date, Grandma!"
