Clara POVs.
I bowed limp, then cried sobbing as Haikal had stepped away leaving me here. I don't know what's on my own mind, which I know, my life right now feels messed up. As if there was no passion.
At first glance, I thought back to what my father said last night when we ate together. It's not as usual. It has been a few days, since mother is not there, father always buy food from outside. Even with my half-forced, dad still wants dinner to be skipped together. Even without mother and without cooking.
My dad and I are not good at cooking. Dad was busy doing his duty to give a living. However, the father never asked the mother to quit her job, because the mother did both very balanced. She works and also does her duty as my wife and mother to me.
Then me? I'm busy obsessing about my career. Working to save. I don't know what the savings are for. I never wanted to learn how to cook for my mom. Though many times mother said that a mature woman must be able to cook, at least cooking for both parents before edited by the man of dreams.
And last night, before I spoke up, my tears just fell. I regret not learning to cook with my mom. If only I could cook, I wouldn't be as troubled as I am now. Eating food from outside is not necessarily guaranteed cleanliness.
“Have ... Don't cry anymore. No use,” reprimand dad. Then I quickly wiped my tears and grabbed my drinking glass. Swallow a few sips of water to calm this heart.
After that I looked at my father silently. “Ayah .. sorry. I can't make a promise yet. These tears kept coming out without me asking. And I'm sorry that you have to keep buying food outside because I can't cook Dad.” I was talking while still sobbing.
Dad took off his spoon and fork, and his hand clasped my finger. With a little courage I raised my face to look at her.
“Dad is a little sorry now,” cleanly while exhaling, “then dad once told your mother not to force you to learn to cook. Because in the end a woman will definitely be able to cook because it is her obligation.” Dad smiled thinly and then let go of his grasp, again trying to eat food in front of him.
I can't stand to say anything. “But it turns out dad was wrong. Dad spoils you too much. Already ... let's quickly finish the food. After that we rest. Tomorrow morning I have to start cleaning the warehouse.”

I immediately wiped my tears and stood up. Turn around and still see Haikal in his car, hasn't really moved away leaving me. As soon as I stepped into the car and with this fast-paced heart, I knocked on the windshield at the passenger door.
He who had closed his eyes and rested his head on the back of the chair, now opened his eyes and turned to look at me. Haikal did not lower his window but he unlocked the door of his car.
Broken it!
Hesitating, I finally opened the car door and entered. With a gasp of breath, both eyes half closed and looking down at both knees, he suddenly thrust a bottle of mineral water at me. While swallowing the saliva, I turned to look at him. “Drink, to be calmer,” he said with a sweet smile.
I took the bottle of mineral water, opened the lid, still with my two eyes fixedly staring at it.
“Drink first, do not look at it, later his eyes are white. Time has beautiful eyes jereng.”
“Iih what the hell!!” Then I slowly sipped the drink. Accompanied by his voice.
After a while, we went back to silence. I still hesitate to say and also confused where to start.
“What if we go first? You don't have to say anything. I wait until you're ready to talk to me, whenever it's.” Haikal asked me to go around with him and I nodded to agree to that.
Finally Haikal started his car, smiled a flash at me and then he started to step on the gas pedal of the car to drive out of this cemetery complex. Take me around this town.
Right now, the clock on my hand is showing at 8am. Quickly, many people who pass by the side of the road, maybe they are trying to get to their respective work places. I am still on vacation.
“You are on leave for how many days with the office?” suddenly Haikal's voice broke the silent atmosphere between us. When I turned to him.
“Sisa two more days,” I replied slowly while confirming my sitting position and facing him, “do I have something to do?”
Haikal glanced at me and then looked back at the street in front of him. “What? Ask aja.”
“When can I check myself?” I decided to immediately do the examination that Haikal had previously suggested to me through Doctor Brian.
At first glance I saw the look on Haikal's dumbfounded face staring at the street in front of him. However, I can't hide my own worries either. Yeah, I don't want to give up like Mom. And I want to live with him too. As he said before the grave.
I lowered my head to look at the ring with a diamond that he gave me when he proposed. Applying for the second time. Then I touched the ring with my other finger.
“You seriously want to do that?” he asked, whether he looked at me or not, I just kept looking at the jewelry that was coiled on my ring finger and embedded beautifully there.
For a moment I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Then raised my head, looked back at him from the side.
“Yes, I'm serious. And I also want to live with you, grow old together to see our children enjoy their lives and take good care of us. Do you still want to do that with me?” lirihku slowly.
Haikal pulled over his car and looked at me. “Whatever happens, I want to do it. Only with you.”
Then these eyes immediately shed tears, this breath immediately blew so freely. Relieved to hear him who continues to accept me with all my shortcomings.
Haikal grabbed my body and hugged me. Erat, so did I who returned the hug. Still with my tears. And this time, a cry that felt happy and also relieving.
I hope he and I can continue to be together like our dreams. Not separated in the middle of the road. Hopefully we can overcome all the problems that will come to us both.
Hopefully ...
