In the morning, Mikaela and Jaka were ready to go to the station. They will be going to Jakarta today. Mikaela was very enthusiastic. Finally get back to town.
The trip this time is more comfortable and percussive because they use a more qualified transportation than the bus, will not be stuck in traffic. Moreover, Jaka specifically chose the executive class for the convenience of his wife.
"Mas, aunt Nenti pity we should just take it." Mikaela saw clearly the look of sadness as well as anxiety when Jaka said goodbye.
"Other times we take it to Jakarta again" said Jaka. Actually Jaka also refused to go to Jakarta, but how else? his wife kept whining about going home.
Mikaela nodded. "I'm a laper mas," There's just this girl's behavior. Before getting into the train, Mikaela had been in the toilet for a long time, they were almost left behind if Jaka did not force his way into the women's toilet. Calling his busy wife in the room. He said, his stomach was heartburn.
"wait a minute, you will get food rations" said Jaka.
Mikaela pursed her lips, then took off her turning hand on Jaka's arm. "Judah deh.."
"Drink first for a wedge of the stomach." Jaka handed me a bottle of mineral water.
"I was asked to drink. You stingy!" exclamation Mikaela.
Not stingy, before Jaka had ordered it, just waiting in between. The train had just rolled off, Mikaela was already fussing over food.
Jaka said, "Yes wait here." What a concern this man. Mikaela should be grateful to have a husband as good as Jaka, attention again!
Travelling for six more hours. Mikaela gets to her parents' house by late afternoon. Their arrival was welcomed by Danu and Sekar.
"Mama, papa!!" Mikaela slammed into Sekar and Danu's arms. I miss them so much.
"Alhamdulillah, finally nyampe also." when receiving news if his daughter was coming, Sekar waited and was anxious. Her feelings were relieved after her son and daughter-in-law arrived.
"How are you guys? Did Mika trouble you?" Danu turned to Jaka.
Jaka politely kissed the back of Sekar's and Danu's hands in reverence. "Alhamdulillah, we are well rewarded." replied Jaka.
"What rest do you want to eat first?" Sekar has cooked Mikaela's favorite dishes. From morning the woman was busy in the kitchen.
"I want to clean first, my body is sticky."
"You've brought Jaka along. Your room is in order with Mbok Darmi."
Jaka pretended not to know what Mikaela was worried about. The man followed Mikaela into a room. Pink rooms, lots of dolls lined up on the bed, do not forget the row of bags and shoes that adorn the glass cabinet. Jaka can guess Mikaela's life all along. Really in the pamper.
"What did you do before?" Jaka curious. Just asking, Mikaela was already glaring at him.
"Why?" cynical reply.
"I'm just asking, I don't mean anything."
"Great head!!" Mikaela was just embarrassed, not willing to tell the truth. He did graduate but only worked a few times. He said not at home! it is basically lazy and spoiled. At the snarl his boss was a little shriveled, then resigned.
"I want to take a shower. Where's the bathroom?" better to forget her curiosity, Mikaela was very unfriendly to talk to.
"No.." Mikaela pointed at the door inside the room with a slight lift of her chin. "It's safe here, not kayaking in your house" he said. Then he walked, walked to his closet.
"Yes I know you're the man." Jaka is aware of Mikaela's insinuation.
In the evening Jaka had a conversation with papa Danu, whatever they were talking about, looked very familiar. "Caper off!" Mikaela grumbled, apparently Jaka intended to seek attention to papa Danu. "Will not. I've not been his wife for long."
"Ehem.." mama Sekar cleared his throat and sat down next to Mikaela who was watching television. "this is you watching tivi what tivi is watching you?" asked Sekar, then his gaze turned to her husband and daughter-in-law who looked familiar. "you love so much, Jaka? so late was it?" mama Sekar smiled, happy to see her daughter has moved on from Roy. "Eh mama just found out. Jaka was a pinter.."
Not yet able to finish her speech, Mikaela had interrupted. "Mama said what the hell. Usually, no need to muji muji that, I'm more cool than he's just a farmer!"
Shoots head bobbles. "Don't be that, walopun only an important farmer can fill your life, love you, life does not have to be a lot of money. Many have rich husbands but in cheating, there are also kdrt. You should be grateful to be free from the forced Roy." advice mama Sekar. Lately he only realized if Roy is not as good and polite when bearing a candidate to support him.
"But life needs money!" exclamation Mikaela.
"Yes, but calmness and comfort are more important. Money can be found especially Jaka type hardworking man, not males malesan rich you."
"What does mama mean? why bandingin' me anyway.."
"You're a Bachelor graduate, but you've never done a job with results. You work two months at most, keep coming out, not at home." I don't know who this daughter is. The feelings she and her husband when young are very hard at work, not lazy like Mikaela.
"What kind of mom? even belain mas Jaka?!" Mikaela was upset, so she went to her room.
