The Passion of Love of the Racer

Go to Lombok

The two crown princes of the Adhitma family are now happy. Kevin and Keanu have got the right life partner. Moreover, Kevin, his happiness is enhanced complete with the presence of twins who are a pair and grow adorable. At this time, Keanu will follow in the footsteps of his brother, by continuing to try morning and night.

That happiness belongs not only to the two crown princes, but also to William. Rival Kenan finally found happiness in old age by successfully convincing Lastri to be his companion.

But in the Adhitama family residence itself, the condition is not as good as those who are there. This whole day, Kenan didn't talk to his wife. Even after work, Kenan did not say a word to Hanin.

“By, you why? Still mad at me?” hanin asked while giving her the sleeping clothes she had prepared.

Kenan is silent. He didn't answer that question.

“By,” call Kenan's unloving Hanin because the man remains silent while wearing his clothes.

“Today I left Mami, because the mutird guardian meeting could not be postponed,” said Hanin explained why he was not at home when Rasti was sick, even before Kenan left for the office, he left his mother to his wife.

“You the owner of the foundation, can definitely postpone the meeting,” replied Kenan. “You can leave Mami alone. You know, I went home and saw Mami take her own drink. Like no one in this house.”

Kenan keeps blabbering. While Hanin just kept quiet and lowered his head. His condition that afternoon was indeed not as easy as Kenan imagined.

“I'm sorry, By. I didn't mean to leave Mami,” said Hanin lirih.

These two days, Rasti's condition has indeed dropped. The seventy-year-old woman spent more time in bed. Kenan has checked the condition of the mother and the doctor suggested that Rasti not much thought.

Kenan looked towards his wife. “I know Mami is not your mother. Mommy hurts you a lot too, but don't you retaliate by treating her like that!”

Hanin immediately shook his head in disbelief at the words coming out of her husband's mouth. He digested those words that were quite stifling to his heart. Truly, Hanin did not intend to run away from responsibility and leave her own mother-in-law in a state of illness. Before leaving for the Foundation, Hanin had already asked the two maids to look after Rasti. He had also ascertained all the things Rasti needed when left behind. Hanin also asks Rasti himself that the woman is okay to be left behind. However, everything became different when Hanin got home.

It seems, Kenan was furious. The man thought that the wife was not taking good care of her mother. And this is not the first time. Back then, when Kevin was ten and Keanu was eight, this happened. Hanin's heart aches when Kenan says he doesn't love Rasti. At that time, Hanin cried in silence. Fortunately, their two sons wiped away the tears and calmed Hanin down. But now, he feels alone because his two sons already have their own families.

Brakes

Kenan came out of the room and went straight to the mother's room. Hanin breathed out and followed the steps of her husband.

“Sini, let me prepare food for Mami,” said Hanin while taking the plate held by Kenan.

“No need. You take care of your business. Let Mami take care of me,” replied Kenan flatly.

“By,” call Hanin by pulling her husband's arm. “Just because of a small mistake, you directly rebuked me like that?”

Kenan kept quiet and kept taking food for his mother.

“Did I look like I didn't love Mami all this time?” asked Hanin again in annoyance.

Kenan put away Hanin's hand which pulled the end of his tee shirt sleeve. “Already, I don't want to argue.”

Kenan walked in the other direction and away from his wife. Hanin kept approaching the man.

“By.”

Kenan looked again. “I always grant your request. Whatever it is. But why is it that when I ask you for just one request, you violate?”

“By, it's not so. It was urgent and I had to come. No one can replace me because the one who used to represent me is also sick,” replied Hanin.

Kenan did not listen to his wife's explanation.

Hanin sighed harshly and only saw her husband walking towards Rasti's room with a plate and a glass. Hanin decided to go back to the room and cry. He will wait for Kenan's emotions to subside and apologize to the man again.

Until late at night, Kenan did not enter his room. He left Hanin alone in the room and chose to sleep in the study.

Hanin looked at the clock stuck to the wall. Time has shown at 00:10. She again gave her rough breath and it was confirmed that her husband slept in the study.

Hanin also broke down and fell asleep alone in a room that is large enough.if it is sulking like this, usually Hanin who will approach Kenan first. Wanting wrong or not wrong, usually Hanin who apologized first and seduced her husband so as not to be angry. But this time, Hanin did not do that. He let Kenan get angry.

****

Three days, Kenan silenced Hanin. However, Hanin remained ordinary and continued to serve her husband. Rasti's condition improved, especially Kenan has hired a nurse to take care of his mother intensively. Although it actually offended Hanin, as if she was completely unable to care for her mother-in-law, Hanin was silent. He let Kenan's decision.

“This is your file, By,” said Hanin by giving the black box-shaped bag.

Kenan simply nodded and accepted the bag without saying. Then, leave. For three days, the man left without kissing his wife first. Kenan was like teaching Hanin a lesson. But what lessons? Just an ego because until now Hanin did not seduce him and continuously apologized. Should it continue like that? For some reason this time, Hanin was reluctant to do that.

Hanin goes back into the house and picks up the pudding to take to Rasti's room. However, he did not see his mother-in-law there. Hanin looked around for the old woman and it turned out that Rasti was standing in the garden.

“Mami why leave the room?” ask Hanin to come closer.

“Mami bored in room. Want to see these flowers,” replied Rasti by staring at the flowers in the garden.

“I took care of her for Mami,” said Hanin who also stared at Rasti's favorite flowers.

Rasti turned to look at her daughter-in-law. He admitted that Hanin was a good woman, only that he did not like it when Kenan put his wife together and made the man weak. Especially when responding to Keanu's decision yesterday.

“Mam, Hanin apologizes if Hanin has not been able to be a good daughter-in-law,” Hanin told Rasti who had not turned her head towards him.

Hanin was still staring at her mother-in-law. “Mami eat the pudding first huh. Want Hanin a bribe?”

Rasti turned her head and took the plate that Hanin was holding. The old woman ate the soft food herself.

Today, Hanin deliberately did not leave for the Foundation. He has delegated all his affairs there to competent people.

“Where are you going?” asked a servant to Hanin who had just walked out of the room in neat clothes.

“Mau to supermarket,” Hanin replied.

“But our food supply is still plenty, Bu.”

Hanin smiled. “There's one I want to buy.”

The waiter nodded as well. He saw Hanin leave with his handbag alone. Hanin was escorted by his driver to the supermarket. However, Hanin immediately asked the driver to go home because he would be in this place for a long time.

As Kenan's car drove away, Hanin stopped a taxi to the airport. Then, he stood on an airline with a flight to Lombok to check in.

Hanin needs calm. According to him, Kenan also needs time without him. Decades together seemed to forget the meaning of each other's presence. And now is the time to prove whether he still means it or not?

Without telling Keanu, Hanin would search the house of his youngest son, himself.
