Special Journey
Episode 51



One by one the seats started to fill up.


Joseph and I are also sitting in the place we chose.


The room began to dim, but was still able to see people who went back and forth, either just in or just out for a while and then back in.


The position that Joseph chose was indeed very comfortable. F15 and Yusuf F14, that means my left side is just bordering the wall.


I was patient enough to wait for the film that Yusuf chose to start, occasionally glancing at the empty seat beside Joseph, and treading the almost fully filled seat.


It turns out that XXI fans are increasing, at this time not only among teenagers but also seen couples who look married, like me and Joseph today, maybe also because this film is themed about family.


From the synopsis that I read, the film that Yusuf is a romantic genre and a lesson in family, I think Joseph's choice is quite good, maybe can take lessons from this film.


Every now and then I sipped the strawberry ice blend merry that Joseph chose for me, seconds later I saw a woman sitting next to Joseph in a chair, Joseph seemed unperturbed by the presence of the woman beside him.


Until a woman's voice called Joseph by name.


"Joseph!" My eyes returned to the woman beside Joseph.


"Gram!" Yusuf was no less surprised by the woman beside him.


"Hey! Tumben's here? We are always busy every time we watch!" The woman continued, while changing the position more facing Joseph.


Okay fine! I'm still monitoring.


"Oh... Same friends?"


I smiled, as the woman leaned slightly, peeking at me who was slightly covered by Joseph's body.


"Who?" Asked the woman, the woman again turned to look at Joseph, not forgetting with a smile as sweet as he had.


Good. Still patient, still I monitor, sometimes I see their attractions from the corner of my eye.


"It turns out, you've completely forgotten me." I stopped my chewing activity. I started to wonder who he was? What does this have to do with Joseph.


"No intention of introducing her to me? Maybe I can stop hoping." Continue the woman.


Joseph glanced at me at a glance, my eyes refocused forward with my mouth chewing again, but my ears could still clearly hear the words of the woman beside Joseph.


"Who are you, who are you?" joseph looked back at the woman beside him.


"Friendly friends, who else can you watch?"


"Hallo, greetings! Sarah. His ex-girlfriend Yusuf, to be exact... The woman Joseph once camped." The woman reached out to shake me.


I forced myself to smile, "Greetings know too, I am Afiifah." I greet the hand of the woman who introduced herself by the name of Sarah.


"Yusuf's friend? Or Yusuf's girlfriend?" although a little darker, but I can see Sarah's gaze on me, a little beautiful in a brown hijab that she wears.


I smiled back at Sarah's question, "Oh... Ex-girlfriend!" We still shake hands, "how long have you been Joseph's girlfriend?" I asked, I hope Sarah doesn't see my cynical smile.


"Pretty long... Two years and three months, we've even been planning on getting married, right?" sarah's eyes were on Joseph.


"Married?" I glanced at Joseph for a moment, but Joseph was still unperturbed by Sarah's words.


"Yes!" Sarah answered with confidence.


"I'm His wife!"


Jedar... I could see Sarah's expression that changed immediately, who had felt proud to introduce herself as an ex-boyfriend, now Sarah's smile was immediately destroyed, clearly a disappointed look.


"Ohh." Sarah immediately let go of our hands, and Sarah's gaze turned to Joseph, as if asking for an explanation.


"He's my wife." Yusuf officially introduced me to the woman who claimed to be his ex-girlfriend.


"Oh, congratulations on the wedding."


I nodded, for some reason... Now that I feel sorry to see Sarah, I feel a deep disappointment in Sarah's eyes.


I don't know how far their relationship went!


"Thank you Sarah."


Fortunately the movie was about to start, the lights were turned off, there was only light from the screen, so it drove away the awkward feeling between us, but in contrast to Joseph, who was still relaxed as if he did not know Sarah.


I glanced at Joseph and peeked at Sarah from behind Joseph's body.


I don't know why I feel uncomfortable with Sarah beside Joseph.


"Now!" Joseph gives silver queen.


"when did you buy this?" My toot. I immediately grabbed the chocolate that Joseph gave me.


"So, before you go in." Reply Yusuf.


"Thank you, yeah." I threw a smile back at Joseph and devoured slowly.


Back to the screen and occasionally I still watch Sarah from the corner of my eye.


Astagfirullah... There was a fear of him sitting beside Joseph.


I could see the love in Sarah's eyes for Joseph, what else when I said I was Joseph's wife, though not too obvious, but I could still see the disappointment in her face.


Thirty minutes had passed, I wanted the film to end soon and out of this room, I was completely unfocused on watching.


"Let's see you always see a cell phone, what's up?" Joseph felt my anxiety.


"It's still a long movie?" My toot.


"Still, it's only been half an hour." Joseph looked at the watch in his hand, "What's wrong? I felt you were nervous!"


"Father." I re-settle the sitting position with a little glance at Sarah, to be honest a few times Sarah was caught stealing a look at Joseph, making me more anxious.


"Why did I ever see you like her?" Joseph whispered a little.


I just shook my head, trying to hide my worries.


"You just go home?" Joseph took my hand again, and slightly squeezed it.


"Well, why don't we go home now?" My toot.


"Sir, we can watch it again next time,"


"It's like you can't focus either, we can still go back next time."


I'm nodding.


"Wanna go home?" joseph asked again, perhaps confirming my decision.


I nodded again, and again my eyes could not be compromised not to glance at Sarah.


"Let's go home!" Take me, with a little bit of Joseph's hand.


"Eh! Where you going?" Sarah held Joseph by the arm when Joseph was about to stand up.


"You're home!" Answer me quickly.


"Excuse me, Sarah." I took Sarah's hand off with a slight smile that I forced.


"Oh... Sories. Please." Sarah shifted her legs giving a gap for me and Joseph out.


"Thank you." My next.


I followed Joseph out of the aisle of the chair with my hand still that Joseph held tightly.


"Excuse me."


"Excuse me, ma'am." I quickly pushed Joseph back to pass a pair of lovers - perhaps embracing each other, who had now lowered their feet to give Joseph and I a gap out.


Joseph and I went out of the cinema to buy the fruit that I would make for Joseph's parents.


Yusuf lightly followed where my feet went, sometimes I asked what other fruit should I bring, or what fruit was a favorite of Joseph's parents, it turns out that almost all of their fruits like.


Two large parcels have been packed.


"Kok home?" I asked, as Joseph pulled my hand towards the parking lot.


In a second, Joseph pulled me back into the parking lot without answering my questions or explaining his purpose.


"Bang!" I'm still trying to hold back my steps.


"Yes, we're buying in a special store, not here." Obviously Yusuf.


"Oh! Say atuh." I followed Joseph's steps towards the parking lot.


Yellow jazz that Yusuf then began to leave the largest Mall parking area in Jambi, Yusuf increasingly noticed more manly and dashing.


"Don't keep looking at me, you'll fall in love." Yusuf briefly saw me who had liked to glance at him.


"What's wrong?" Joseph asked, as I looked more and more deeply at him.


"Hey! From that moment I thought I mulu, wait again, is there anything you think?" Ask her again.


"I want you to tell me about Sarah." My answer. My eyeballs were still focused on Joseph's handsome face.


"Nothing to tell, yes... He's just my past, that's all." Reply Yusuf. Joseph had no interest in discussing his relationship with Sarah.


"You down? Or stay in the car?" Yusuf asked as soon as the car was parked in a L'occitane store.


"Follow." I haven't had time to open the seatbelt Joseph's body has already passed through my body, my heart racing so fast when kissing Joseph's body manly, making my nose feathers goosebumps.


"Come on."


I followed when Joseph chose the things he used to wear.


One by one he input the depth of the bag paper that reads L'occitane store.


To be honest I have only first known this product, from the new information, l'occitane is a product from France.


Quite complete, ranging from perfume, body care, hand care and it turns out there are also parians for women.


From the price listed... Waw! Not bad, one perfume that Yusuf chose the price was able to make me gawk.


"Farfume only?" my many. Shortly after Joseph came out only carrying a small paper bag containing perfume.


Joseph only needed perfume here.


"Yes... Maybe now just need this, for others still at home Mami, who less later can follow your taste."


I just nodded, trying to digest Joseph's words. Follow my taste? Just-there! He is a man how can wear the scent of girly, which almost all toiletries and Handbody fragrance typical of women.


Almost an hour's drive, we finally arrived at the house of Joseph's parents.


Mami Papi with a big smile was waiting for my presence and Joseph was grabbed by the door.


"Assynoltom... Mi, Pi's."


I followed Joseph kissing the hands of his two husbands. Ever since I knew Joseph and his family, I have not seen them at all like Joseph's adoptive parents.


They loved Joseph very much. Evidently when Joseph was first identified, Joseph's parents sounded very worried, because they could not take care of Joseph.


"Waalaikumussalam, how long? Mother said you're gone from morning." Mami embraces me.


"Yes, Mi. We stopped by to buy this first." I raised the parcel in my hand while following Mami Tan into the depths of the house.


"Don't bother! I can't wait for you to come."


"Yes. Dizziness Papi mengeliat Mami busy holir homecoming, mengengengin mulu hours."


"As soon as you hear the car in front, Mami comes out."


"Can't we come?"


"Sir, Pi. Mother said they would follow." answered Joseph.


"Here, let me arrange the cake with the bread first." I snatched the box that read igor's pastry from Joseph's hand.


"Geez! Tau right Mami's son if the house again runs out, plans later tonight would ngajakin Afiifah there to buy, uh already brought it turns."


"You stay here, sit down! Definitely tired. Let Bi Ime prepare, Mami still wants to be close to you." Mami held my hand again.


"Bie... Ime Bi!" Called the nongol.


"Please keep bringing it here, Bi." Mami handed the box to bi Ime.


"Good, Mom."


"Synthetic?" Ask Mami.


"God willing, Mi. The plan is so." I'm still a little stiff. Be aware... This was the first time I spoke this close to Joseph's parents, who had met often, but never expected to be his ghost.


Actually I need not be afraid, as far as I know Joseph's parents are quite cool and friendly with his children, even though they are six heads, their young souls are still clearly visible, even Mami looks much younger than her age.


"Not lunch yet, right?"


"Not yet, Mi." My answer.


"Not yet lunchtime, Mi." Now Papi spoke up.


"Hehe... Just this time before we came here to eat first."


"Thank you already nyamperin Mami Papi so soon, Mami think next week you will just visit here." I could clearly see the happiness on Mami's face.


"Mommy likes to be lonely at home,


"Where are you planning to stay?"


Maybe Mommy and Mommy represent most of the parents when their sons get married, where will you live?


Me and Joseph besides looking at each other.


"We don't know yet, Mi. There's no serious direction for me there yet, after all we've only been married for a few days, still feeling tired." Reply Yusuf. I thought Joseph would say to stay with his parents, as I said yesterday would stay with Joseph's parents.


"Oh that! But Mami was hoping you'd stay here, Mami's really lonely." Now the smile that had never faded, even disappeared, as if hinting at the disappointment and sadness of Mami.


"God willing..."


"Let's think about it again, Mi." Joseph cut off my words. It seemed that Joseph was able to understand what I was about to say.


"Wherever you stay, it is important to look after each other, to love, to respect and to communicate each other most importantly,


"Yusuf as the head of the family now has a heavy responsibility, both bad your wife, it is a reflection of your morals." Joseph and I heard all the counsel of Papi.


"God willing, Pi. We'll try to look after each other." Yusuf.


"Diminum Sulu juice of Mbak, must be puree?" Bi Ime offered me a glass of mango juz.


"Thank you, Bi." I welcome the juice from bi Ime.


"Before you know Bi Ime, right?"


"Hehe yes Mi, have met several times, last met when taking Joseph's clothes here. Isn't that right, Bi?"


"Yes... Didn't expect Auntie, if it turns out that Miss was really chosen by Bang Yusuf."


I just smiled at Bi Ime's words.


I remember Bi Ime saying, Joseph did not let anyone touch Joseph's underwear.


"It's also the same cake as the bread, Non." Bi Ime.


"Don't call Non, Bi. Call Afiifah just don't papa." I feel bad, because I know Bi Ime has also been considered like family in this house.


"Like this cake?" Tanya Mami while giving a cake that is indeed appetizing from its shape.


"Afiifah try it first, Mi." I took one small piece.


"Hm... Delicious." After a few chews, I think it's not bad either.


"From now on you should love this food." Mami continued, by eating, the food that aroam blueberries very clearly sensed my smell.
