REPLYING TO MY HUSBAND'S MISTRESS

Chapters 123.

"Aish, what did Sumi mean?" asked Hendro after they had been far enough from the Bik Titin stall.

Aish stopped, patted Hendro's hand slowly which was still on his wrist and rubbed his nape with a misbehaved expression.

"Aish don't just shut up, Aa needs an explanation. Why do people say that you'll be Aa's stepmother? Is that true?" hendr sounded frustrated.

"A-Aish, also don't know why people say that, A."

"But people won't say anything if there's no reason, Aish." Hendro began to scramble his slightly curly hair, a look of annoyance was very noticeable on his nose that was sharp.

"Actually yesterday grandmother had said that Baskoro boss was about to propose to Aish, A. But Aish refused," explained Aisyah trying to reveal what she knew.

The twinkle in Hendro's eyes heard Aish's reply, but a second later the twinkle went out again as Aisyah revealed her reason.

"Aish's color has its own choice, A. Who's now waiting for aish in town."

"A-what?" muttered Hendro looked riled up.

But soon after Hendro again forced his smile with the look of his face made as relaxed as possible.

"Ja-so, you already have a lover like that? How come you never told me?"

Aisyah bowed, then slowly her feet stepped back towards her house with Hendro at her side.

"Color all this time Grandma did not agree Aisyah with her, said Grandma she was just a poor young man who could not possibly make Aish happy."

Hendro seemed to swallow disappointment, a feeling that had always been silent in his neat store only for Aisyah now had to be in her grave deeply, considering the idol had his own choice.

"But .. yesterday, he called Aish. Said he was ready to propose to Aish as soon as possible."

Hendro was stifled, his facial features were no longer able to hide his disappointment.

"But, there's one problem ...." Aisyah stopped because she felt that there had been no response from Hendro, her interlocutor.

Hendro was shocked when Aisyah touched his shoulder.

"Ah, uh .. aish. Just ngagetin' me anyway." Hendro is still trying to look good even though now the water in the corner of his eye is starting to gather and he slides.

"Aa' why? Aa' not horrified Aish curhatan huh? Sorry if Aish even discussed other issues," said Aisyah lowered her head deeply and resumed her steps towards home.

Hendro regained his senses and rushed after Aisyah and pulled her wrist.

"Wait, Aish."

"Why, A? Aa better go home, it's almost maghrib later Aa's parents are looking," said Aish while swinging his steps to continue the journey home.

"Aish wait, sorry is not the intention of Aa' not horrifying you. aa dengerin kok, only AA confused to respond to how," said Hendro trying to persuade Aisyah.

Aish stared at the old hendro, the lightning eyes that always looked at him in the shade now looked teary.

"A' cry?"

Hendro gasped then quickly shrunk his tears with the end of his shirt sleeve and smiled broadly.

"Ah, no. Only this was hit by a dust breeze so stir, "the pretext of Hendro cover his sadness.

Aisyah nodded, then as she walked back slowly Aish expressed again the turmoil of her heart to the young man whom she had considered her own brother.

"Can aa' help Aish?" tanyanya expectantly.

Hendro looked at him confused, but soon after he nodded even though his heart was doubtful.

"Can Aa' help Aish find Aish's biological parents?" said Aish with happy sparkling eyes.

Again Hendro was stunned, either already to the many times Aisyah gave a surprise that he only knew at this time during the last few years they were close.

"Ma-you mean? Isn't it grandma Janah?"

"No, Grandma Janah's adoptive grandmother Aish, A. Aish's biological parents are still alive only Aish does not know where they are," concluded Aisyah as if she knew what Hendro would ask.

Hendro looked mangosteen, but his heart melted for success helping Aisyah for this one.

Aish shook his head weakly.

"Grandma said she didn't know who Aish's birth parents were, a."

"Then it looks like it's going to be hard, Aish?" Hendro let out a rough breath.

His mind was complicated only by hearing Aisha's curses on him.

Not feeling they finally arrived in front of Nek Janah's house, Aish turned to look at Hendro with a wry smile.

"Don't think about it, Aish just shared a story instead of trying to make aa' bother to think about a favor for Aish."

Hendro smiled back, his heart that had been broken into pieces in the cover so as not to be seen by Aish.

"It's okay, don't worry. If Aa can, God willing, help you find out who your biological parents are," Hendro argued firmly, trying to look good.

Aish had just developed her smile when suddenly from the direction of Janah's house a baritone voice startled the two of them.

"No need, Hendro. You don't have to bother to help her because soon she'll be your third stepmother!"

Hendro's eyes widened.

"Pa-father?" he cried in shock, especially looking into the house Nek Janah looked a lot of goods like as a batch in neat arrangement in the middle of the room.

"What's this?" Aisyah's screams looked terrified.

****

In another village.

"Sir Alam sure you want to take ustadz Rahman?" asked Abdi when he wanted to take Rahman home to the cottage but instead in Alam intercept in the middle of the road.

"Yes, my wife happened to take a trip to the city. Jenguk kyai in his cottage he said, so let's just all right." Nature said with her eyes still busy on the screen of her phone.

Abdi looked awkward, he turned to Rahman who sat next to him first as if asking for approval.

"What's not a hassle?" asked Rahman wanted to make sure, especially in the car Alam he knew there was another passenger there and from his posture Rahman was sure he was Asiyah.

Nature drew her gaze from the cell phone and tried to pull to the two corners of the lips that very rarely smiled it formed a curved line that looked stiff.

"It will not be troublesome, so that the Abdi can also save money on gasoline. It's good enough to add your savings to marriage capital later, yes, Di?" kekeh Alam tried to melt the atmosphere but was not aware that the election was wrong.

Abdi only mengengengos and not really care about the words of Nature that for him is ordinary.

"Where's ustadz? If ustadz is not pleasing let me just deliver it is okay, insyaallah the money is from the village fund. Do not use my marriage savings really," kekeh Abdi anyway, making Nature who heard to be rather cool.

"Russia, ustadz. Just like me, the car is not good, there is no ice cream." Nature says ketus.

"Is there a Mr Alam car?" ledek pula's.

But Nature is a crybaby. "No," he said casually.

Abdi.

"Huh, if not the boss ....".

"What's wrong?" Nature snarled.

"My father gave birth to that man!"  exclaim Abdi while closing his car word.

"You ...."

"Udah, Sir. Let's just go," said Rahman who had come down from the servant's car while carrying his backpack and standing beside Nature.

"Oh yes already, for a moment yes I told my wife to move to the back first," said Alam without being prevented, but it is also beneficial for Rahman because if along the way see the idol of the heart sitting next to another man his heart will surely melt.

Asiyah was seen coming out of the car, the Fuchsia color robe she used to wear during her last meeting with Rahman waving in the wind.

Rahman was stunned to see it, especially when he saw the flower-shaped brooch from him looks shiny at the corner of Asiyah's shoulder, pinning khimar and hope into one.
