REMEMBERED YOU
REMEMBERING YOU Part 32 (Suspiciousness of Bayu)
Ms. Santy did not continue her sentence because she did not dare to guess. While Bayu was already curious what was on his mother's mind.
"What do you mean, Mama,?" ask Bayu.
"It's okay, Bay."
"But Mama didn't finish talking,!" answer Bayu.
"Mama wants to ask you, when you and Irwan and Aulia to Dinda's house at that time about what was Dinda's response,?" ask Ms. Santy.
"The response was good, he was happy."
"When I see how Aulia.?"
"Wuaduh, Bayu did not focus on seeing Dinda's attitude towards Aulia, because we were busy talking to Bu Heny and Dinda as well. I think it's normal, Ma."
"How come I still feel less trust with Dinda."
"I don't believe what Mama meant.?"
"Yes he's actually a good kid, only he's a little brave. Unlike Dini her brother who tends to pendiem. I mean, Dinda can accept that you prefer other women" explained Ms. Santy.
"Woodoo don't think that far, Ma. Because Bayu thought at that time Dinda responded and received again Irwan, yes I'm fine."
"But, this is just Mama's analysis, Bay. Not necessarily true either" replied his mother.
"We're thinking positively, Ma. Maybe Aulia is busy again," said Bayu.
"Yes, you take a shower now. After that eat."
"Ready boss,!" he said as it passed.

In a different place, Aulia had just reached her home. Now he parked his motorcycle on the porch of his house. While his mother is still busy behind preparing for the sale tomorrow morning.
"Mom, how's the cooking done, huh,?" ask Aulia.
"You are Lia, just a little. You take a shower, after that eat."
"Good Mom."
About twenty minutes later, Aulia came back to help her mother. He deftly helped his mother cook in the kitchen.
"Lia, Nak Fatih was here. He's looking for you" said his mother suddenly.
"Oh yeah, what's the matter here, ma'am.?"
"She was initially disappointed to learn that your father died. But, after that he asked you. He said Aulia had been proposed to the young man had not. If not, he will continue with his wedding plans first" replied his mother.
"Then I answered what.?"
"Yes, I answered as is, I answered not yet. Not yet, son,? said Mother.
"Actually Mas Bayu had met Lia again, Mom. But, Lia refused his invitation. Because I'm confused, Mom. Mbak Dinda used to say that Mas Bayu only considers himself Lia as an escape, what if the relationship is only based on escape," explained Aulia.
"Lia, if I don't agree with your thoughts. I feel it's just Dinda's wits so you don't get married" replied his mother.
"But on what basis does he think that.?"
"You told me that Dinda actually loves Bayu too.!"
"Yes Ma'am, but he was willing to accept Irwan's proposal. Cook him still take care of Mas Bayu's business," asked Aulia.
"Mom doesn't know either, son. But the proof is when the day we met at the bakery he said it was like you" replied his mother.
"Yes too, Mom. Yes let her say that, Aulia is still focused on helping Mom send Aji first."
"Yes, Aji is in less than a year of graduating. After that he let her find a job so she can help you too."
"Why didn't he go to college, Mom. Let's get a better job" replied Aulia.
"No, son, let me help you later."
"There's still Aulia, right.?"
"Son, you will marry and definitely follow your husband. Don't keep thinking about me, think about your own life. It's time for you to pick up your happiness" replied his mother.
Aulia fell silent, she realized because she actually had to think about herself. In the future, however, she must marry and build a household.
"But, Mum. Aulia now became doubtful about Mas Bayu."
"Son, Bayu's a good boy. I feel like if you're the same, you're safe. I won't worry anymore" explained his mother.
"Yes too, Mom. Aulia actually also loved Mas Bayu."
"Why do you doubt him. About Dinda's talk don't be taken dizzy. Maybe he still can't accept that Bayu chose you."
"Alright Mom, Aulia will try to talk again with Mas Bayu," replied Aulia.
"Yes son, don't waste people like Bayu."
(***)
In the next few days, Aulia deliberately did not enter work because of the permission to have a cake order. After he finished working and delivered it directly to the ordering house, he was told by his mother to deliver the cake to Mama Bayu.
Around two in the afternoon he reached Bayu's house. He parked his bike in front of Bayu's house.
"Assalamualaikum.," he said from outside.
"Getishalight."
Soon the door opened, and Ms. Santy appeared from inside.
"Aulia," exclaimed Ms. Santy.
"Mom" he said, kissing the back of the woman's hand.
"Please come in, Lia."
"Thank you, Mom."
"Tumben, there's a promise with Bayu, is there,?" ask Ms. Santy.
"No, Ma. Coincidentally, I ran out between cake orders, then told you to send this to Bu Santy," said Aulia while giving a box of cake contents.
"Oh thank you, this is your own making, Lia,?" asked Bu Santy while observing the contents of the box.
"Yes, Mom. I'm the same mom made it herself."
"You're so smart, oh yeah wait a minute. I put this cake inside."
Ms. Santy went inside and now Aulia is in the living room alone. Before long there was a video call coming in from Bayu.
"*Assalamualaikum.,"
"Gettlepussy.,"
"Again what?" said Bayu from the end of the phone.
"Hmmm, sit down again."
"Well, that's how I've seen those wall hangings.?"
"Come, guess where I am.?"
"You're in my house.!"
Aulia nodded her head, "Yes I'm at home with your Mama."
"Well, don't play at home even if I'm not at home."
"Yes, Mum."
"Do you take a day off or rest."
"I'm letting you know that there's a cake order, this is where I stopped by all the cake anterin for Bua Santy."
"Oh yes, that's it. Don't go home yet, wait for me."
"Yes, Mum."
"Okay, Assalamualaikum.,"
"Girisham*.,"
Aulia then turns off her phone again and she doesn't know that Ms. Santy is out.
"Wood yes, Lia,?" ask Ms. santy.
"Yes, Mom. I was told to wait for Mas Bayu to come home from work."
"Yes it's okay. You just wait here.!"
"Yes, Mom."
"You just rest in the guest room usually, if you want to pray later I'll get it."
"Here you are, ma'am, if you have Ashar. It was Dhuhur prayer, "Aulia replied while leaning her body on the chair.
"If so just go into the middle room, all watching tv. I'm staying out of the air."
"Yes, ma'am," Aulia replied as she walked towards the living room.
Aulia scanned the entire room inside Bayu's house, after which she stood up and took a look. But, when he saw the photos on the display table near the tv, he captured a photo of Bayu with a girl.
It looks like the girl is held behind Bayu by laughing loosely. Aulia's eyes dewy at the sight.
"Mas, you look really happy in this photo," said Aulia slowly.
