That night, Ayu could not sleep at all. His mind continued to wander on every problem that existed, added the expression of love Ezra this afternoon.
All of that made him unable to sleep, even though his eyes were closed.
Sitting in a chair facing the window, enjoying the cold night air that hit his body.
Her hand held the ring that Ezra gave her, I don't know what the woman was thinking. The look was complicated, not to be guessed.
Sighing rough breath, then move towards the bathroom because soon dawn time arrives.
"Bi, what else do you do?" ayu asked, when she saw Bi Yati cooking something in the kitchen.
After fulfilling his duty as a Muslim, he decided to go downstairs.
"Eh, Neng Ayu. This ... Aunty again cooked the chicken soup for breakfast," Bi Yati replied, staring at her lethargic-looking master.
It turns out true what Ezra said last night, if this morning Ayu must not feel well.
Yes, last night the man contacted Bi Yati , gave the order not to disturb Ayu, and prepared breakfast using chicken soup with spices.
Bi Yati was used to getting orders from her old employer, regarding her concern for Ayu.
From the beginning she was ordered to move work to the woman's house, she and her husband had learned of Ezra's excessive concern for Ayu. The couple thought that Ezra had feelings for Ayu.
"Sir why, how do you think you're not feeling well?" bi Yati asked, linking her brows.
"No, just a lack of sleep." I inhaled the smell of warm vegetables.
"This is spice soup, huh Bi?" ask the woman.
"Yes, how does Neng know?"
"When Mom was around, she used to cook spice soup when I wasn't feeling well."
Bi Yati could see clearly, the change in look on the young woman's face.
Ayu's memory returns when she is always cared for with love by her mother.
Flashbacks
"Ndi, eat first. I've cooked the spice soup."
The teenage girl smilingly looked at the shady face of a middle-aged woman who was busy preparing food for her.
At that time he was in the middle of a high fever and a cold, after a few days yesterday rained on his way home from school.
Sickness, which some parents consider common in children until school age teenagers like it.
However, it's not all for Puspa. Single mom women are always worried when their children are sick even though it is just a mild flu.
Therefore, when Ayu was sick Puspa always took leave. He just wants to focus on taking care of and giving more attention to his son.
The incident when Ayu tried to commit suicide, it was enough to make him afraid of losing his only child and family.
The teenage girl sat at the end of the bed, preparing to take a bribe from her mother.
Puspa painstakingly fed his son, while occasionally joking until a small laugh from Ayu was heard.
Flash back off
"Miss?"
Bi Yati's slightly raised voice resuscitated the woman from her brief daydream.
"Yes, Bi?" Ayu gave her a frown, looking at the housekeeper questioningly.
"Sorry, Neng .. from now on Auntie called her not horrified," the middle-aged woman looked clumsy, feeling guilty for raising her voice at her employer.
Ayu smiled warmly, because she realized that she was daydreaming.
"Eh, no papa Bi. I was a little daydreaming earlier," bowed his head with an amused smile.
That morning Ayu had breakfast with Bi Yati, while Mang Ujang refused on the grounds that he was still full after drinking coffee.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the woman had just arrived at the Clarissa boutique parking lot, after a week or so she had not come there.
"Mba Ayu's. Long time Mba not here, we all miss the same Mba!" cerocos Riska when her boss had just walked into the boutique.
All of his employees greeted the woman's arrival.
"I miss you all, too. How are you guys doing?" Ayu hugged one by one of her employees.
"Riska please bring the parcel in the car yes, share it for all of you. I'm sorry I didn't bring anything."
Ayu said before leaving for her room. His head feels a little heavy, he intends to rest first before checking the development of the boutique. The woman hopes that she can close her eyes at work even if only for a moment.
Even her body on the bed in her private room, trying to close her eyes even though the shadow of Ezra's words, still haunts her mind.
Maybe because of tired and lack of sleep, just a few minutes passed Ayu has entered into the dream realm.
.....
Elsewhere, Ezra sat in his great chair, his eyes staring at the photo on his desk.
"Dira, I'm sorry for falling in love with another woman" he said, rubbing her face with Nanar's gaze.
No matter how many times the word came from his lips, he felt like he was betraying his late first wife. All of this makes Ezra feel guilty.
Instead, look at the photo of a small baby who looks fast asleep in the lap of the mother.
"Our son has chosen her to be a mother, and I love her too. I hope you allow me to be with him" he murmured.
His memory returned last night, when he had just returned from Ayu's house.
...Flashbacks...
"How is Ayu's brother?" asked Keenan when he had just entered the house.
"It's been better, but it looks like now I'm making trouble for him" he replied ambiguously.
Keenan, who was walking at the same pace as his brother, frowned, confused.
"What are you doing with Ayu, huh?" Just be careful if you mess with that nice lady!" Nawang who was sitting in the living room together with Garry immediately glared sharply at the eldest child.
"Aunty why, Pah?" Naura who was playing was immediately approached, when she heard the name of her favorite woman called by her grandmother.
"Aunty ain't papa, honey. Now Naura continues her play yes, Papah wants to talk to Grandma first."
Ezra said after hugging and kissing her son's face. Smiled as she got a submissive nod from Naura.
Sitting beside Keenan with both parents in front of them. Nawang's gaze was still sharp to him.
"Just answer, Mom's question. What are you doing with Ayu?" ask Nawang again.
Ezra looked down deeply, actually he was embarrassed to confess his feelings to Ayu in front of his family, what else the man knew that this afternoon was not the right time to express his feelings.
However, his ego and heart can no longer hold back the taste that has existed for a long time. Until finally he decided to reveal it, take a chance when they have time together.
"Ezra, answer your mother's question!" press Garry, come intimidate him.
"Well, Mah .. I didn't do anything to Nindi!" answer Ezra, but in a softly restrained voice.
"Then why did you say that you were the cause of her trouble, huh?!" asked Nawang, impatient.
"I just proposed to him" said Ezra steadily. The man tried to hide his nervousness with a flat face.
"What?! You proposed? I didn't hear wrong, did I?" ask Nawang, stir yourself.
Ezra leaned his body relaxed, but it was only a cover to cover his heart that was beating so badly.
"Finally, Big Brother expressed feelings as well." Keenan patted the shoulder of the man sitting beside him, with a proud look.
"What the hell are you, Zra. You can go ask Ayu at a time like this! You can't be patient any minute, until this is over, huh?!" maki Nawang to her own son.
Both of Ezra's parents knew about Ayu's problems, they were very concerned about the woman's life, so both supported Ezra to help.
"I know it's wrong, Mah. But, if you wait for the family problem to be finished .. when will it be? I want to protect her without any restrictions now blocking my movement" Ezra replied at length.
All this time he had been very furious when he saw the woman shed her tears, but he could not do anything.
"Already, Mah. Let it go, they'll be adults, already know what's best for their own lives. After all, Ayu is a good woman, Naura also loves her very much. So what else should we worry about?" Garry tried to ease Nawang's emotions.
"When it comes to Ayu, I'm very happy that that woman could be our daughter-in-law. But, your son doesn't know the place and the time! What if Ayu becomes a lot of thoughts. I'm sure Ayu hasn't given me the answer, has she?" Nawang was still staring at Ezra.
Ezra nodded, his lips twitching with a smile when he heard his mother say about Ayu, and saw the reaction shown by all his family.
Instead, fearing the anger of his mother, the man was happy to get a good reception from the mother, regarding his relationship with Ayu.
He was sure there would be no barrier of blessing from all his family, this time all the decision to stay depended on the woman's answer alone.
In the morning Ezra was even surprised by the words of the child at breakfast.
"Well, Grandma said Aunty would be Rara's mom, huh?"
The little girl's innocent words, even lingered in her mind until this moment.
Flash back off
Smiling while shaking amusedly, when imagining how Ayu reacts when she meets her son later.
Keenan who had entered the room since then the brother just sat watching Ezra's attitude which he rarely found before.
"Love can change people, even make them crazy."
The man shuddered in horror, looking at Ezra who seemed to be smiling to himself since earlier. Even the voice of him who entered was not heard, but usually Ezra including men who are sensitive to the surroundings.
"Kok I'm so afraid, don't let me like that if I fall in love" Keenan murmured.
"What did you say, huh?" asked Ezra who had just regained consciousness from his daydream, and heard the faint voice of the younger brother.
"Eh, no! I just wanted to say that the car that was brought a week ago is done."
Ezra nodded indifferently, again reaching for the file that was on the table, without glorifying Keenan.
