The silent night sent a cold breeze against the heart of the man who was sitting pensively on the terrace. Staring at the stars in the sky while gathering if. If, suppose, for example.
Ah ... silly! He laughed to himself, smiled to himself, frowning to himself. Exactly like those shameless people passing by on the streets naked. Yeah ... Just look! His smile, guess what he was imagining? Aye! You're right!
Stars dance beautifully around the moon at night, sometimes hiding behind clouds. Shameful, but will. He laughed again as a shadow flashed in the moonlight with a red hue on his cheek.
"Sister!" reprimand the voice of Nadia who managed to make the men's club. All the daydreams about him just crumpled. Missing impregnable was blown by the sudden strong wind. Nadia was standing in the doorway with a cup of coffee that was puffing smoke.
He smiled when Uncle Harith looked at him and smiled clumsyly. His face pointed at the empty chair asking him to sit down.
Nadia moved, she put the coffee she brought to the table.
"Make me?" his tan pointed expectantly at the puff of coffee smoke whose aroma melted his saliva.
Nadia glanced at the coffee and Harith's uncle took turns, before she gave a small nod to the man's question. Uncle Harits immediately grabbed the cup and sipped hot coffee in it.
"Ah .. Enjoy! Steady, it is second to none of the coffee made by prospective bini," he said, smiling at the cup in his hand before putting it back in its original place.
Nadia blushed to hear that, as long as she was the wife of Ikram, the man never praised what he did. However, Harith's uncle was different, he often praised what Nadia did even though it was just a trivial thing. It is all that the wife wants, understands and spoils. A wife is not like a child, and a husband is a place of abundance.
"Mc ... Sis, is what you said this afternoon true that Papah is an investor in their company?" nadia asked, wanting to know the truth from the news she heard this afternoon.
Uncle Harith was silent, looking at the curious look on Nadia's face. Seconds later he chuckled little himself.
"I was just bluffing, baby. Don't be too serious, I just don't want the woman I hold high in her degree to be insulted and demeaned by others. Whatever I'm gonna do to keep you honorable." He smiled after saying that.
Nadia was flattered, but still Harith's uncle lied.
"So, is that all a lie?" ask Nadia again.
"Mmm. .. You could say, yes, you can't." He shrugged his shoulders indifferently. Nadia forms a frown on the baffled forehead with the ambiguous answer from Harits uncle.
"Sister how do you mean? Don't confuse me!" Nadia started sulking. Sweet adorable. Uncle Harits again chuckled amusedly.
"Mmm ... How, huh? You are the right investor, but not in their company. Well, there's a little lie. He's the biggest investor of my life, making me bear a lifetime debt of gratitude. What your parents did I won't be able to pay back, Nadia .. no!" Uncle Harits shook his head.
Nadia was down, it was still a lie.
"Surely Mamah never told her -"
"If it's not important, it won't be possible for Mamah to write a will about Brother. In the will written by Mamah, there is only the name of Big Brother there. He asked me to come with him when a man named Harith came looking for me" Nadia said.
Uncle Harits bowed, he heaved a heavy sigh. Never thought Sarah would trust him so much to take care of Nadia. Their only daughter. He smiled, thanking the couple who are no longer in this world. Promise in heart, will take care of Nadia for the rest of her life.
He raised his face again, looking at Nadia with a smile on his lips. There was no word between them, a few moments of silence greeted the two.
"If you believe me, then allow me to take care of you for the rest of my life. I've already registered our marriage to KUA, yeah .. about one or two weeks from the show." Nadia was a little surprised, but she couldn't do much either. Maybe this was the fate he had to accept.
"I want no secrets between us. If there is something I do not know then you should tell me at this time by Brother himself. I don't want it after we get married I just found out and it's from someone else's mouth. It will hurt my heart and it will be a betrayal. So, tell me everything right now!"
Nadia looked at Uncle Harith's face deeply. The man was equally attached to Nadia's bead. He sighed, throwing his eyes off Nadia. It was disturbing, but what Nadia said was true. If he knew it from someone else it would be more painful.
"Well ... what do you want to know?" this time, he had a serious face.
"Tell me about the truth Sister's wife!" tugut Nadia's. Since this afternoon he had been anxious to know about Uncle Harith's wife that the old woman was talking about.
Uncle Harits flinch at the demanding netra hazel.
"Well ... the truth .. he's not dead yet, but I've divorced him. It's been a long time since our son died" replied Uncle Harith.
Nadia bowed, she bit her lips strongly at the real fact.
"Our son died because of him. According to his friend, the boy who was the age of Bilal saw his mother who walked with other men. But alas, when he was about to cross the road .. brak ... a truck ...." Uncle Harits couldn't continue the story.
He shook his head while bowed, his tears shed when he remembered the condition of his son's body that was not in the form of. Uncle Harith was crying. A sigh, there was a faint sound in Nadia's ears.
"Sister!" Nadia rubbed her back slowly. Feeling guilty about the questions he asked.
The trembling body of Uncle Harits slowly stopped as the warm feeling of Nadia's gentle sweep flowed following the flow of blood in his body. He wiped his tears, looking at Nadia with his reddened eyes.
"Please, just trust me, Nadia. If one day such incitement comes, I hope you will be wise in responding to it. I told you I was a jerk who wanted to repent. That's enough!" firmly uncle Harith again before leaving Nadia.
Before long he returned to Nadia's place, his hand quickly grabbed the coffee cup and chugged it to the end. Nadia's mouth gaped in disbelief, her eyeballs following Uncle Harits' movements.
"Honey," he said with a smile and left Nadia again.
The woman shook her head in surprise.
