The Foreign Taste

Open the Secret Screens

"Twin boy? I'm pregnant with twins, Mas?" Ask Rahayu suddenly.

Aditya who seriously reminisces about his past is not aware of what is said by his mouth in detail. So when Rahayu asked about the pregnancy of her twins, Aditya felt like he had slipped.

"Mm. yeah. You are indeed pregnant with twins, Yu," Aditya said honestly in the end.

"But first Mas only mentioned that Adek was pregnant. Not pregnant with twins? And then Adek's son disappeared kidnapped people?" Tanya Rahayu investigated.

"Well.yah.your one son has indeed disappeared kidnapped people. And the other one died. I see, Yu," said Aditya.

"Ooh... What did he die of? What age, Mom?" Tanya Rahayu.

"Still baby. Pas was born. So I rarely mention the baby boy."

"Comeone? So I have twin boys and girls, Mas?" Ask Rahayu again.

"Yes. Who died, baby boy. The kidnapped one, the baby girl," Aditya replied.

"Who was kidnapped, what happened when he was a baby?" Ask Rahayu again.

"Mm. is somewhat larger. Almost walk, maybe."

"Oh.."

For a moment, the atmosphere became silent. Aditya was uncomfortable with this silence. So he hurriedly tried to shift the topic.

"Anyway, a few years after that, we met Adnan. Isn't that a good thing?" Aditya.

Reminded of Adnan, Rahayu's feelings suddenly get better.

Yep. I don't know for what reason, but Aditya rarely touches her. Until now, they have not had a baby.

Aditya always gives physical satisfaction to her, but not by touching her thoroughly. Sometimes Rahayu even thought, if there was something wrong on her body so that her husband did not want to bully her like other married couples.

Then Rahayu recalled back to the fact that she actually had twins. And it made his mind even more tangled.

The woman was busy guessing. If Rahayu is really her biological daughter who according to Aditya kidnapped people, then what about her true fate with her other babies? According to Aditya, he died from birth. Is it true that the baby died or was dumped by..

Rahayu hastily dismissed the bad guess. Then she looked at her husband. To make Aditya who is enjoying his dessert so caught off guard and asked.

"What's up, Yu?"

For a moment of silence, Rahayu unconsciously asked a question she really wanted to ask from noon.

"Mas, does Mas know about the assault that happened with Ranum, his classmate Adnan?" Rahayu asked with a focused and unblinking look.

Aditya was a little jolted. Presumably shocked also because the wife immediately dared to ask about the attack on Ranum.

Under the eyes of those who expect honesty, Aditya finally has no power to give answers other than the answers desired by Rahayu. An honest answer.

"Yes.. Mas knows it," said Aditya while putting a spoon and fork on the plate.

'Relax, Aditya, you heard Rahayu's words this afternoon. If he'll give me full confidence to explain everything. As long as I tell her the truth, ' Aditya murmured inwardly.

"Who did you know that from? It just happened this afternoon, Mom.. Means Mas also know that I was the same Ranum last afternoon again? Are you following me?"

Rahayu's question became more detailed. And his eyes seek the truth hidden behind the two beads of the husband's eyes.

Receiving that question, Aditya finally decided to end their dinner time this time faster.

He then somewhat advanced his body forward. His hand grabbed the wife's fingers tightly clenched on the table.

He rubbed it with his wife's fist slowly several times. And in a soft voice, Aditya said as well as pleaded. Something impossible to do as an ex-mafia.

"Bahayu, please. Can we talk about this private matter at home? There were too many eyes and ears in this place. I can't say it here, Dek.. Mas please.."

Rahayu stunned. The Taj thought that he would hear a plea from Aditya's mouth. With a slightly tense face, Rahayu finally nodded. Accept Aditya's request.

"Yes, Mom.."

Aditya breathed a sigh of relief. Stared again wlmata snag wife. And he was grateful, because he did not find accusations in both beads belonging to Rahayu. That means Rahayu is still willing to wait for her explanation patiently.

Aditya was nervous. Is his decision to be open to his wife the right pain or not?

But when remembered by Rahayu's speech this afternoon, Aditya's nervousness became reduced a lot.

If true what was said by his wife when he was at Ranum's house, then maybe he may have hopes to stay with Rahayu in the future.

...

The couple finished their dinner as soon as possible. Rahayu looks impersonal to eat and immediately wants to complete her curiosity on the real events that have been covered by Aditya all this time. Aditya realized that.

The man did not spend his dessert. And pay their dinner bill immediately. Only after his wife took him to the front area of the restaurant. Where the car has been waiting.

Once in the car, Aditya entrusts his driver to take them around the city first before going home. This was done to give the two more time to talk.

Rahayu remained patient in her silence. Waiting for Aditya to give an explanation to her.

After a long time the car drove, Aditya finally started telling stories. He begins his story from his own life story.

"You might forget this, Deck. But it's okay. Mas will remind you again, about everything about yourself Mas first. Before I answer your question honestly. Mas hope, hopefully after you hear the story of Mas, you can understand the reason Mas did some things that may be difficult for you to forgive," said Aditya at length.

"..Yeah, Mas. Adek will try to judge everything as objectively as possible. But, what will Mas tell you later related to the two Adek children who do not exist?" Rahayu asked to be convinced.

"It could be yes. It may not either. Depends on how you judge her."

Two pairs of eyes looked at each other. Dive into the depths of each other's hearts. Slowly the secret was opened. One mouth that spoke later, became the ultimate whistleblower of the secret that lay between the two.

And Aditya finally spoke..
