The Lost Sense

Chapter 31

"So don't you ignore your partner". Yoga said while looking seriously at his daughter.

Lisa just nodded her head. He was still focused on his food.

"Do you understand what Lisa's father means?". Yoga asked back because there was no response from his son.

"Yes, well, Lisa understands".

"After dinner you call Sakti, Om Rahman said Sakti was so worried about you because from yesterday it couldn't be contacted".

"Good Well".

After dinner. Yoga straight to the family room to watch tv. While Lisa helps her mother clean the dinner table and wash dirty dishes used for their meals.

"Lisa.. do you regret getting married to Sakti?".

Deg

Lisa stopped the movement of her hand that was washing dirty dishes. A second later he looked at the mother's face that looked sad.

"Mothers..Lisa said in a heavy voice".

"You deserve to be happy, son, if you want to cancel your marriage, I don't mind".Lisa's mother looked down she couldn't hold back tears.

Lisa hugged her crying mother. Women of different ages cry together.

"Why were you crying this afternoon? you don't want to marry Sakti, do you?". Now the mother and son are sitting in the dining chair facing each other.

"No Mother". Lisa answered while lowering her head.

"Actually this afternoon I heard you crying in the room. Talk to Mom. Why are you, son?".

"Religion?". Rima's mother let out a rough breath.

"Mom knows actually Bagas liked you a long time ago. But is it important now Lisa? didn't you choose Sakti?. I never forbade you from connecting with anyone including Bagas, did I?".

"After a few days after I received the match, Bagas expressed his feelings for me Mom, he invited me to get married.And of course I refused him. But yesterday I really knew the reason she worked so hard just to bounce herself in front of our family mam.

Rima clasped his son's hand."Do you want to cancel your wedding?".

Lisa just shook her head."I've decided to marry Mas Sakti and I'll forget Mother Bagas".

"Are you sure?".

"Yes ma'am, I'm very confident in my decision".

Rima's mother smiled hearing the daughter's only answer to her puppet. "It turns out you're an adult, right?.You know, son, treatment is more important than expression, but wouldn't it be better if both were done together?. If Bagas loved you for so long why didn't he express his feelings? afraid you're gonna push back? you keep telling me, standing in front of our family? do Mom and Dad always judge people by their social status?. He surrendered before the war".

"Not that he gave up, but he prepared himself". Lisa still defends Bagas. Not because of his love for Bagas. More about caring about friends.

"Didn't he have love, what else needs to be prepared for".

Lisa was just silent, it felt free to also argue with her mother. Because he will surely lose.

"According to Mom, that sincere love is enough to be her strength. Enough to convince Mom and Dad. Enough to remove your trauma. Enough to be her spirit while seeking fortune. His lack of confidence makes Bagas lose you Lisa.Because he was the one who wasted his timing when he was with you".

Lisa confirmed the words of her mother. Bagas only paid attention to him. But never expressed his feelings. While Sakti she always expressed her feelings.

"His..why am I thinking about Mas Sakti". Lisa said in her heart.
