Pursuing the Love of the Widower

New Number

“What's up, Dhis? You're okay, right?” Kalini's soft voice sounded different in Gendhis ears. It made the twenty-seven-year-old girl feel an incredible newness. However, Gendhis kept trying to control himself. “If you have a problem, just tell me. Incidentally, aunt also not sleepy.”

“Nnothing. aunt. I am on holiday in Bali. I met up with Chand. She's like ...” Gendhis turned to the handsome man who was busy watching the atmosphere of the beach at night.

“What's it like?” kalini asked still in her gentle tone. Making Gendhis abandon his intention, who was about to call Chand like a hornbill. “Not like anything, aunt. As usual, looking jutek and somewhat annoying,” replied Gendhis while grimacing small. He feels so stupid.

“Ah, you are this. He is the most handsome aunt child loh.” Kalini laughed crisply. He had known Gendhis who was sometimes silly and spoke without direction. However, her maternal instinct caught something else from Susena's second daughter. “You sure you're okay, Dhis?” ask Kalini again.

Suddenly, Gendhis let out a crisp laugh. The laughter impressed was forced. That was Chand's concern. “I'm fine, aunt. Just, the name is unemployment this way. His mind here and there is no juntrungannya,” said Gendhis trying to joke. However, the appearance of the face that looks different. Gendhis eyes showed great sadness.

“If my mama was still around, she must have asked like this as well. Honey because my mom .. but it's okay, aunt. Whatever happens, I need to be strong and strong. That's what papa always stresses. Although I am a woman, but papa says that ..” Gendo suddenly laughed again. However, tears have begun to fall soaking the cheeks, though soon wiped by him, so that Chand does not see.

However, Chand was also not an innocent stupid man. He knew that something was wrong with the girl he always saw as strange. Gendhis did not realize that since then, the handsome widower had been watching him secretly. Chand even listens to Gendhis talk with Kalini, among the waves. Sayup-sayup, the handsome man can catch a sentence or two that Gendhis told Kalini.

“This.” Genphis returned Chand's phone.

“I told you, take it first. Tomorrow I'll take it to your hotel,” Chand put his phone back on Gendhis.

“No, that's enough. Tomorrow I want to buy a new sim card,” reject Gendhis. “Thank you, yes. It feels good to be able to talk with Aunt Kalini,” said Gendhis smiling knot.

“You're lucky to still have a mother. Curse the same mother is different than the same father.

“You are also lucky to still have papa. At least, the responsibility on your shoulders is not too heavy to keep the family,” Chand replied. He, who had been staring at Gendhis, turned his gaze to the high seas. Chand was silent with a glaring look.

“During this time, mom always forced me to get married again. However, things are not that easy, Dhis. First, because I failed. Failure of marriage for very embarrassing reasons. Second, my mom didn't know I was worried about her. My mother's age is getting old. I don't want to give him that inner burden again like yesterday. I have to be more selective in choosing a wife. However, it all takes a short time. There are many considerations to be taken into account. It's not a matter of choice or anything."

Chand smiled knot. “You've changed a lot now. I even thought that you were someone I knew a long time ago.”

For some reason, Chand poured out his heart to Gendhis. He who had all this time looked haughty and annoying in front of the girl, this time looked completely different. Chand is like any other figure that Gendhis is new to.

“Who? What is your ex too?” ask Genthis.

“Not. Just friends,” replied Chand. A hint of disappointment was implied in his words.

Genthis can understand that. He didn't want to ask any further. “I just want to change myself little by little in a better direction. Who knows, after I try to get better, everything in my life can also follow. I know and understand very well that choosing a life partner is not as easy as following lust. You're correct. To choose a life partner and decide to marry, it does require a process and readiness that is very mature.” Gendhis muttered softly, then lowered his head.

“Do you have any problems with Manggala?” chand asked as if he was luring Gendhis to talk.

However, Gendhis did not answer immediately. He smiled wryly as he shook his head slowly. “According to you ... what kind of Manggala was he?” Genphis asked back.

“Yes too, yes,” Gendhis smiles widely. “Ah, stop. Forgetit. Don't you answer,” he said as he waved his hand, then walked down the cliff. Gendhis left Chand still in his place. He did not look back until he was in front of the hotel where he stayed. There was nothing that Gendhis wanted at that time other than to sleep well, forgetting for a moment the burden of life.

So deeply Gendhis fell asleep, he did not realize if the day had changed, time even crawled into the afternoon. He woke up when the phone alarm rang aloud at twelve p.m.

“Yes, geez! I fainted!” Gendhis hurriedly got up from the bed and immediately cleaned himself up. After taking a shower, she rushed out of the hotel to get food and bought a new number. The choice at that time was a fairly large outlet located not far from the hotel area where he stayed.

Gendhis chose a beautiful number with a back number that was exactly his date of birth. After paying, he immediately put up the sim card and called Susena. “Halo, Pa. This is my new number. Save, yes. Tell Mbak Hanum and Utari too,” tell Gendhis.

“Oh, Dhis!” exclaim the papa as Gendhis will end the call. “Manggala send a message. May you be happy, he said.”

Gendhis smiled faintly, as his mind drew the figure of a Manggala. “Keep, what else did he say?” tanyakanya.

“Um, it .. said Manggala ...” Susena's sentence paused, making Gendhis curious.

“What?” push the girl.

“Manggala had told Papa. The plan is, after marrying you, she'll take you to Ireland. Manggala got an offer to lead a television station there. At first he deliberately did not tell it to you, as a surprise. However, after you cancelled the wedding, she finally chose to let go of Nirwana Media and intend to move to Ireland alone, Dhis,” Susena explained at length.

“Ma ... Manggala want to move?” gendhis's birthday is in disbelief. “Terus .. Sinta Ma'am how?”

“How do I know, Dhis. You ask him directly,” Susena cetus.

Gendhis was stunned for a while. He hesitated to press the numbers on the screen. His thumb back and forth was about to press the green button to call. At that time, someone accidentally nudged the arm of Gendhis, so his thumb pressed the icon calling.

It was too late for Gendhis to end the call, for the voice across there had already greeted. “Who is this?” ask the voice.

“Mbak Sinta? It's me, Gendhis,” he replied slowly.
