Nanda came home with a bruise on his face. He opened the door of his house that was deliberately not locked by Mira, slowly and carefully so as not to wake the house. When I closed the door, I heard the sound of the door closing. Nanda wishes neither Mira nor Aunt Mei had heard of it. But just as Nanda was about to climb the stairs a voice surprised her.
" Home home, mom." Mira's out of the kitchen.
" Mama, why haven't you slept. It's late at night." Nanda replied somewhat trembling as she was still shocked. " Don't you wait for papa to come home."
" Surely yes, my mom waited for me. Mama just bet in heart."
" Mama, what if papa doesn't come home. Papa goes to Desy's place, will you wait until morning." Nanda breathed. "Next time you don't have to wait for papa to come home. It's also for mama's sake."
" I'm sorry mom, pa. Mama's feeling bad, so worry about something happening papa. Is papa okay?"
Mira approached her husband and was surprised to see his face bruised.
" Papa's face why. Why is it like this." Mira looked panicked.
" So papa helped the man who was about to be robbed on the street. Good thing papa even a little martial, the robbers run away afraid of papa." Nanda lied for the umpteenth time.
" Luckily papa was just bruised. Papa take a shower first, then let mama help treat papa's wounds all compressed as well."
Nanda rushed to take a shower and changed clothes. Mira helps him treat his wound and compresses it. Mira did not suspect her husband at all. She was just doing her duty as a good wife.
That night Nanda could barely sleep. Rosa's pretty face always plays on her eyelids. Whatever he saw, there must be a face Rosa was smiling at him. His heart is beating." How is this, am I in love with her?" He said in his heart.
Nanda looked at the woman lying next to him. Why did her face turn into Rosa? Nanda smacked both his hands into his face." Really, have I gone crazy." Mumbled slowly.
After work, Nanda went to Rosa's boarding house like he promised. Rosa had been waiting for him and prepared Nanda's suit that was clean and neatly placed in a plastic bag.
Nanda was a bit awkward, seeing Rosa standing at the door like she was waiting for him. Awkward but also happy to see it.
Nanda walked up to Rosa who was smiling when she saw her coming.
" What's up." Sapa Nanda's." Is it better?"
" It's better thanks to you." Rosa was a little embarrassed.
" Why do you call me that? " Nanda was a little disappointed Rosa called him you.
" What should I call you?"
" I'm not too old either. Just call my name can."
" I call you Nanda, can you?"
" It is very possible. Then am I just left standing here?" Nanda smiled happily.
" Oh, please come in ..mas Nanda."
Nanda goes in following Rosa. Nanda looked around, quite neat but rather small.
" Rosa, are you comfortable staying here? I think this place is too small."
"This place is good according to my financial condition."
" Tomorrow, I'll help you find a new, better boarding house."
" It's not necessary. Nanda has helped me a lot. I don't want to owe you too much."
" Don't refuse, I'll be very angry. It's my good intentions for you." Nanda forces Rosa to accept her good intentions.
Rosa is confused by Nanda's treatment of her. But that's a good thing too, he could move from this cramped boarding house to a better place. Maybe this is his luck. Meet a good guy.
Rosa was very grateful to Nanda.
Since then, Nanda has visited Rosa. Either day or night, if Nanda wanted to meet Rosa for sure she would have come to see her right away. Rosa also has no objection to Nanda's arrival.
One day, Nanda came to Rosa's boarding house. Nanda accidentally sees a man coming out of Rosa's boarding house. Nanda immediately rushed in angrily without knocking on the door first. Rosa, who was just about to drink, was shocked to see Nanda coming in with anger. Rosa was a little scared.
" What's wrong, did something make Nanda mad?"
" Who was this man, who just came out of your place?" Nanda asked in an annoyed tone.
" That was my college friend. He wanted to borrow a note today, because he didn't go to college." Rosa tried to explain.
" Is it true that she's not your girlfriend?"
" No.But he's my lover or not, doesn't it have nothing to do with mas Nanda?"
"There was. Of course it has something to do with me." Nanda sat on the chair while sighing. " Because, I like you Rosa. I've been in love with you since we first met. When I imagined you with another man, I could not help but feel this jealousy. Rosa I don't expect you to accept me, but at least I've expressed my feelings for you.My heart is relieved."
" I am too."
" What..." Nanda was shocked to hear Rosa's words.
" I also like Nanda. I've also been in love with Nanda since Nanda helped me."
" I have a wife and children."
Rosa was silent and pensive.
" It doesn't matter. I loved Mas Nanda. I also have a secret I haven't told Mas Nanda. Not necessarily mas Nanda accepts me."
" Just say it. Whatever it is, I can take it."
Nanda is happy because it turns out Rosa also has the same feelings for him.
" Mas Nanda, I'm a widow." Nanda was shocked to hear Rosa's confession.
" How could it be, you're young and still in college."
" A long time ago, at the beginning of college, I was pregnant. My boyfriend and I are still in college. We finally married Siri. And I have to go on college leave to give birth."
" Where is your husband now?"
" He had an accident and died before my son was born. He didn't get to see our baby." Rosa suddenly cried.
Nanda couldn't bear to see Rosa sad. She hugged him and tried to comfort him.
" Oh, don't be sad. Her beauty is gone. I was right here. If you will, I'll be willing to be his father."
" Has Nanda really accepted my son?"
" I love you, so whatever you are I accept. As long as you want to always be by my side with my current state."
Rosa felt lucky, getting the man she loved and dreamed of. He didn't care that Nanda already had a son and a wife. Even Rosa hoped that one day Nanda would only be hers.
Rosa and Nanda's relationship grows closer after they decide to become lovers. Nanda returns to feeling the youth of being with Rosa. Dating like a teenager in love. Nanda was drunk with love and could not remember that she had two wives.
Rosa deliberately makes Nanda crazy about her. He didn't want Nanda to leave him after getting bored.
