The Alaska Dea

Chapter 34: Sea Water Salt

I don't know how long Dea just sat while hearing a row of rambling mamahnya after Aska and aunty Mega came home. More or less discussed is the concern mamahnya will socialize in Jakarta. Starting from the fear that Dea ended up like Ria Salsabila who was pregnant out of wedlock, to the news of the artists who were entangled in drugs. Plus, Mamah saw Aska in her unit last night.

"Did he not appreciate Mom? So besan? Kidding time!!" by Ajeng again.

That was another thing that became the topic of Ajeng's rant tonight.

"Pantes mamahanya so, let alone his son"

Dea rolled her eyeballs. Type son-in-law and besan mamah Ajeng is a descendant of the palace with high manners and full of elegance. Not that Mega does not have good manners in the eyes of Ajeng. It's just that seeing how the response Mega who only threw a pillow when hearing his son drink alcohol made Ajeng made a grate. If Aska was his son, believe me he would have dragged his son to the bathroom and doused him with water.

"You saw that, didn't you? If your mas drink alcohol, mamah kanya will immediately nyiram your brother. Instead of apologizing first as mamah because his son is in your unit these nights, he even ngajak be besan?!! How is he?!"

"But Aska doesn't drink mah"

"Who said? Could he lie, right? Judging from the way he deletin you by pretending to be drunk, it means he has indeed had a drink before"

"This is Jakarta mah"

"Because this is Jakarta, so mamah want you to go home. Work in family companies. Mamah sure your association will not be strange"

Dea sighed. Stand up, then wrestle spoiled in the arms of his mama "Aduh, ndoro queen Ajeng Purwaningsih, my most beautiful mama. Aska ngelakuin that because Dea again angry with Aska and ngehindarin him. So don't be angry. Aska a good man"

"Wait, do you like Aska?"

Dea froze for a moment, before finally shaking her head to change the look of her sinister face now.

"good. Mama would not agree. Dan—"

Plaque. Dea grimaced as one death blow landed on her back.

"Aws. Pain mah" whining Dea. Really, mamah's punch is really very deadly.

"When you're in the hands of your mom if you enter the men into your unit!!"

Dea pulled her smile. This isn't the first time Aska has entered the unit. Dea obviously wouldn't say that to her mom right now.

"By the way, why go to Jakarta?" dea asked, trying to divert the conversation.

Ajeng who was taking out some food boxes that he brought from the house, put away Dea's arm that was still coiled in his hand. Then put some cooked side dishes into the refrigerator. "You want to make two choices for you"

Dea frowned suspiciously, a little worried if mamah planned things that used to be often done mamahnya.

"Select to meet at home or in Jakarta"

"meaning?" dea's eyes were increasingly eye-catching suspiciously. Not only the first time mamah gave such a strange choice, Dea sure there must be something smelling matchmaking that is mamahnya prepare.

"Which choice"

"You didn't break our agreement, did you? No longer the intention of the Dea matchmaker with the child of the friend, right?"

Ajeng sighed. "After breaking up from Ardigo you also do not have a girlfriend, right? Do you want a single mulu?! Get married and take your career off"

This time it was Dea who sighed in annoyance. It is not the first time you have arranged it with the children of your friends. Long ago, Dea even made a deal if she only wanted to marry by her own choice and agreed to it on the condition that Dea must have a lover after college and have a serious relationship until marriage. Dea had Ardigo at the time, although the man cheated on her with his best friend.

"You promised Dea"

"And the covenant is void because you miscast Ardigo's rich man, remember that"

"Your!!"

Ajeng's high blood rose instantly upon hearing his daughter's screech. A dissertation breath massage on the neck turns into a hard blow that lands right on Dea's back. It feels like Ajeng wrongly allowed Dea to get out of the house. If he knew his daughter would be a woman of this character, Ajeng would never let Dea out of his sight.

"But Dea does not want to come. Point"

"If you don't want to come, make sure you bring a car with you during Rita's wedding"

Ah, Dea forgot that her distant cousin is getting married next week. That must be the reason why mamah wants to come all the way to Jakarta. Obviously to make sure this only daughter already has a partner to take to family events later.

"So, you came because of Rita's wedding? Mama's making a blind date too because of her?"

Ajeng did not answer. He fed Dea with wine to keep her daughter talking. Actually, the issue of marriage is not something that will urge Ajeng to quickly marry his children. It's just that the events of Ardigo's marriage are clearly scattered everywhere making his brothers-in-law pity Dea which makes Ajeng feel sick. Not pity, rather talk no-no about his daughter. Even Ajeng had heard rumors that Ardigo left Dea because Dea was no longer a virgin.

"Oh so true because of Rita. Okay, if so. Just take a guy to a family event, right? Simplest. Aska nganggur mah"

Ajeng immediately shook his head. Ajeng's first impression of Aska was really not good, especially on the man's mother. "It's just as mamah if you come with him. Just meet your son Mamah! And come with him!!"

***

Not Mega name if he immediately gave up after getting rejection from Dea's mother. With a bag of groceries that he just bought at the supermarket early in the morning, Mega smiled widely when he accidentally met Ajeng when he was pressing the door password. Pointing himself into the house, Mega waved his hand at Ajeng who was only answered with a smile by Ajeng.

"Where are you going?" tanya Mega is friendly. Mission to help his son to be approved by the candidate-in-law.

"You go downstairs for a while mbak"

"You shop" asked Mega again. Although it is very clear Ajeng looks so lazy to respond, Mega does not give up.

"You're buying mbak salt"

"In my house there is salt. Outside the rain and the supermarket on the 1st floor are still closed."

"It's okay, I can find another store"

"Much loh mbak. Wait a minute I take it inside ya mbak" did not wait for an answer from Ajeng, Mega immediately rush into the house.

On the other hand, Ajeng who just pressed the elevator button would not want to undo his intention to go down. In any case, they are the closest neighbors of his daughter's unit, Ajeng can not make a problem that makes them reluctant to greet with Dea. They were the first people who could help her daughter in case of any problems.

Ting.

Ajeng turned his head as the sound of the elevator door opened, Aska seemed to walk out of the elevator while bowing her head in greeting. From the sportswear worn, Aska may be discharged from the gym on the 3rd floor.

"Auntie's to me"

"Morning" answered Ajeng. He walked ahead of Aska to the Dea unit. There was no more chatter between the two, as Ajeng also tried to avoid talking to the man.

"For the last night"

Ajeng's steps stopped, turned his body and looked straight at the man. Putting on a cold expression with a gaze that he made as scary as possible to mentally test the child.

"I'm sorry, tan. Nothing happened. Again I'm sorry tan"

Ajeng nodded his head "One aunty message for you son. If you want to get something valuable according to others, then do it the right way" Ajeng said. Before actually entering, Ajeng turned his head back towards Aska who was still standing in his place. "You, like auntie's son"

Agheng's shocked face can be seen from the handsome face of the child, then greeted with a nod and a wide smile that makes Ajeng as if bewitched to come smile.

"Tante wants to see your efforts to make dapetin very valuable things for aunty. If according to aunt failed. So do not try to use the wrong way. After you are in the hands of aunty later" after saying that, Ajeng went straight into the house. His heart was almost dislodged when he found Dea standing right in front of the door with a grin that was like a kudanil boy who could get his favorite food.

"He doesn't like it. Why so grimly" Ajeng wanted to laugh to see his daughter wrong now.

"Who is smiling. Where's salt? Mama not buy? He said he'd buy some salt?"

"Not so. The salt is still mixed with sea water" Ajeng replied as if.
