THE SACRED LOVE OF MENTARI

ARRIVAL OF EVE

Now Dari and Adam have returned to the humble home of his father Tari.

Sad dance of course because their marriage did not get the blessing of Adam's parents, but she was more sad to see the condition of her husband who was battered because he was beaten all out by his father-in-law, he said, it made her cry.

Adam who saw his wife crying pulled her in his arms and tried to comfort her, "Have Dance, you don't have to cry, we can live our lives well without their blessing."

Dance a bit, but she nodded at Adam's words.

"Awwwhh." Adam grimaced because he felt a pain in the corner of his lips, the pain from his papa punch was only felt now.

"Why mas." Panicked Dance saw her husband touch the tip of her torn lips.

"Sit the mas, Dance will treat Adam's wound." Dari ordered.

Adam recalls, he was sitting in a rattan chair in the living room, while Tari was looking for a P3K box, before long Tari appeared with the things she needed and sat beside Adam.

"It hurts a lot."

"Remain, papa really channeled his emotions very animating." he chuckled and he went back to complaining, "Awhhh."

"Don't talk yet."

Dance cleans Adam's wounds first with alcohol, then after that he applied red medicine.

"Awwwwhh." Adam again grimaced when he felt his skin that felt sore due to the touch of red medicine used to treat it.

"Sick mas, I'm sorry, I'll slow down."

"When the pounding does not hurt, it is now so painful."

Silent, the two were both silent, and Tari was still busy treating Adam's wounds.

"Mas, I'm sorry." shrieked Dance suddenly, it's unclear what caused her to apologize.

Adam looked at Dari confusedly, astonished her why Dari suddenly apologized to her, "Why are you apologizing to Dari."

"I think I'm a big boy and got kicked out of the house."

Adam smiled faintly, "I chose you because you're a girl worth fighting for."

"Thank you, I've been willing to follow your words to marry me and take care of me when you're gone."

"It is precisely I who should thank the late father of Dance because he has entrusted his favorite daughter to me for my care."

"Mas, Dance kangen same father." muttered Tari, her eyes glazed as she remembered her late father who was gone.

"Tomorrow we'll make a pilgrimage to father's grave."

Dari nods at Adam's words.

"Nahh is done, now Adam's better rest."

"Just as you rest." Adam blinked his eyes meaningfully.

"What sieh mas Adam, I want to cook mas."

"Later cook it, rest it first half an hour." rest that is not just any rest, "Yes dear ya." Adam forced.

Dance who understood the meaning of her husband's words said, "But let it hurt again."

"Just hurt gini doank means nothing dear."

"So I kept complaining."

"Eatya ayok, just think of this as a medicine so that I can recover quickly."

Dance chuckled, "Basar mas Adam."

Because Adam continued to whine, finally Tari obeyed her husband's request.

****

Eve visited her family's residence when her mother called and told her about what happened in the big house to her, she came alone because her husband had not come home from the office while her daughter was entrusted with the care of her at home.

Once at her family home, Eve went straight to her mother's room.

Tok

Tok

Eve knocked on the door, "Ma, this is Eve, Eve came in."

Although there was no lawfulness from within, Eve pushed open the door, as soon as the door opened, Eve could see her mother sitting on the bedside.

"Ma." Eve approached the mother and sat in an empty room near her mother, from a close distance, Eve could see her mother's eyes looked swollen, it seemed like her mother had been crying for quite a while.

"What really happened ma, how the chronology of the story." fretted Eve curious because when called her mother only said that Adam was married and expelled by papa Atta.

"Your sister prefers her over her mom and dad, she has made us ashamed before Siska, the best girl we have chosen for her." mama Cellin told an emotional story with eyes full of hatred for Dance.

Eve stroked her mother's arm, "Keep how ma."

"Well you know thou shalt thine papa, he struck thy sister and drove her out of the house, thy father was angry, he really did not consider your sister to be part of our family anymore."

Actually Eve wants to say this, 'Let Adam with Tari ma, after all Tari who makes Adam happy, rather than being forced to marry Siska would not be good results' want Eve to say that, instead of being forced to marry Siska, the result will not be good' want her to say that, but for now he is self-conscious enough not to say it directly considering his mother is in a state of emotion and allergic to Dance, he could have sprayed if he said it, said it, he prefers to be quiet and listen.

"Mama never thought your sister would defy like this, she was a good and obedient child, but because of that damn girl she had the heart to fight mama and papa, but, I don't know what that woman did to your sister, maybe she brainwashed Adam."

Again Eve could only be silent and did not respond to her mother's complaints, because in the bottom of her heart, Eve never blamed Dance at all, because she knew, because, Adam chose Dance because Dance was a good girl, which Eve did just stroke her mother's arm.

"Pacify yourself mama, if mama keeps this anger, then mama's high blood disease relapses again." those are the best words Eve can say to her mother.

Not long ago, her father entered the room, Eve could see the face of her papa hardened because it was very angry with Adam.

"Pa." reprimanded Eve.

"Eve, papa tell you" said Atta without further ado without replying to her daughter first, "Adam is no longer part of our family, she'd rather be the girl she'd only known for a few years than us as her family, but I'd like to stress you out, Eve, don't call your sister again, let alone help her, understand you."

"Well pa." answered Eve, it was done because she did not want to see her papa emotions, in her heart clearly Adam is still his sister and of course he will help Adam if his sister needs help, Adam, but it was clear he would do it secretly without his father's knowledge.

"We'll see what the brat can do without papa, if he can survive without papa." papa Atta's wrath recalled Adam's bold behavior against her only for the sake of a poor girl.

After a while at his family home, Eve said goodbye to go home and before leaving she advised her parents to rest and do not think about this problem because Eve did not want it to affect the health of her parents.

While in the car, Eve called her sister to ask her where the sister was, although her father had stressed not to contact Adam, and Hawaii agreed, but the words 'yes' were just licked, but, think Eve, enough of her parents who were hostile to Adam and Dance, she didn't have to do that to her sister either.

On the second ring his call was answered.

"Hello mbak, mbak Eve must have called because she has been told by mama about what happened in our house a few hours ago" said Adam once the connection is connected.

"Yes, we went to our parents' house, they were very angry about what you did Adam."

"Would I be wrong if I wanted to live my life with the woman I love."

"Its fault is Adam, it's just that our parents have a high prestige." Eve said, "You are patient Adam, I'm sure, for a long time their hearts will melt and they will accept Dance as their daughter-in-law." Dance raised her sister's heart.

"May mbak."

"Adam, where are you now, I don't want to see you ."

"Adam's at home, more precisely the house of his father's legacy Dance."

"House of his father's legacy Dance, what do you mean."

Adam then explained what happened, about their papa who came to the house of Dance and gave a check on Tari so that it made the asthma of Rahman's father relapse and until finally the man breathed his last.

Eve smothered her lips when she heard Adam's story, she never thought, because her father lost his life, "God papa, what you've done."

"Make papa mbak."

"Well, no matter how Adam is, he's still my father."

"Hmm."

"Okay, I'm going to your house now."

The two brothers ended the call.

Eve asks her family driver to point the car at the address sent by Adam.

It only took 25 minutes for the car to stop right in front of an alley, Eve could see her sister walking near her car because Adam said he would wait for her near the road because his wife's house could not be entered by the car.

Adam and Eve hugged each other when they met.

"Mak Eve how are you" asked Adam pleasantries, because seeing the condition of his brother, it is certain that his brother is fine physically and psychically.

"Bak is good, but you're not good, you look thin Dam."

"I'm fine with you."

"Dayok mbak, Dance has been mbak mbak mbak in our simple home."

Before leaving, Eve told her driver, "Sir, wait a minute."

"Good mistress."

Eve walked behind her sister as a guide, only taking five minutes to reach the house currently occupied by her sister and his wife.

Eve stared at the simple house unblinkingly, inwardly saying, "Adam now lives here, I never expected my sister who since childhood was overflowing with luxury was choosing to leave her luxury that she had enjoyed all this time and choose a simple life like this."

"I know what to think." murmured Adam who made Eve stop the judging activity.

Eve patted her sister softly on the back, "Bak salute you Adam, for the sake of fighting for the woman you love you left all the luxuries you have given."

"Never heard the term love is blind, well maybe that's what makes me do this" he joked.

Eve laughed softly at her sister's answer.

"Welcome to Eve in our humble home." welcome the new Dance out of the house.

Eve smiled as soon as she saw Tari who was now officially her sister-in-law, she walked up to Tari and hugged her, "I'm on behalf of the family apologizing yes Tari for what our father did to you and your late father."

Tari shook her head, "Mbak doesn't have to apologize, Tari has been sincere with everything."

"You are so kind and sincere, it is fitting that Adam loved you so much and chose you over his own family."

"Excuse Dari for that mbak, Dari did not even intend to make the family relationship between mas Adam with papa and mama be cracked."

"Yes, you don't have to apologize either." Eve tried to calm down, she did not want to make Tari feel guilty so, her sister was an adult, knew which was best for her.

"Look in mbak." take Tari walk in, "But sorry mbak, the house is small gini."

"It's okay Dance, the house that matters is the comfort is not big and luxurious."

"Yes is right." said Tari, "Look sit down first." Dance invites.

"Tari made you drink."

"I'm sorry Dance has troubled you."

"No trouble, ma'am."

Adam then came in and sat down with his brother.

Today Eve uses her sense of sight to explore every corner of the room, the house is really simple Dance, there is no luxury furniture there, very different 180 degrees with the house of her parents and her husband's house.

"This is how our house is, small and simple." murmured Adam.

"Although it's simple, but you're happy to live here, rather than big but you're unhappy."

"Yes, I'm right."

"Now what are your plans Dam."

"Let's get a job, right now I'm expelled by papa disrespectfully from the company."

"There are no acquaintances or acquaintances of Irfan who is currently in need of employees."

"Actually it is forbidden to help you in any form by papa." Eve told her father's words.

"Seeing that you're in front of me right now, I'm sure you're not following your words."

"Dibir yes, but I don't, which heart I don't help my own sister."

"Mbak really is ter the best brother."

"Later mbak bantuin yes nanya-nanya the same mas Irfan and also acquaintance mbak who knows there are job vacancies."

"Adam wait for the information."

Dance back to the living room with a tray of tea for her sister-in-law and her husband.

"Please drink" said Tari as soon as put the cup of tea in front of her sister-in-law and the other in front of her husband, Tari then sat beside Adam.

"Thank you Dance." Eve grabbed a cup and sipped tea made by her sister-in-law.

"If you're alone Dance, what are your plans." asked Eve after putting down her teacup.

"I'm also trying to find work mbak, the plan is I will include applications in some companies." Dance explained.

Eve just nodded her head.

Adam took his wife's hand, "I'm sorry, baby, because now I have nothing to make you have to join the work as well, so that only I work to support you, you should just be home enough to be a housewife and take care of our children later." Adam had always wanted his wife to stay home, but because of the circumstances, because, so Tari was also looking for a job.

"Apaan sieh mas, don't feel guilty, it's Tari's job to help mas Adam."

The newlyweds throw each other loving glances, "Thank you baby, you're really a very understanding woman." Adam kissed the back of Dance's hand.

"Ekhemm ekhem." Eve cleared her throat, "There may be Adam here, may not know you are newlyweds and still warm, but can not be friendly not in front of mbak, will mbak be envious." seloroh Eve in a joking tone.

Dari was embarrassed, she lowered her head, while Adam only chuckled in response to her brother's joke.

"Elahhh mbak, I can't be as affectionate as Irfan in the room after here."

"You don't seem to know, your brother-in-law won't be home before nine, totally crazy about his work."

"Don't complain about donk mbak, Irfan mas will work for the sake of mbak whose hobby is clean."

"Yes, he's a workman, he's a spender, fair enough." she said.

"Basar mbak Hawa, her nature is not far from mama."

Half an hour or so Eve was at her sister's house before she finally decided to go home.

Adam drove his brother to the front of his car.

"Bak go home first Dam, if there's anything to do with mbak." Eve kissed her sister's cheek before getting into the car.

"Mbak." hold Adam.

"What's Adam."

"What about my degree at papa's." Adam just reminded me of that, if he put in a job application that he needs is that, "Don't be able to enter work without my diploma mbak."

"You take it easy, Adam, you'll try to ask him for it, you're sure he'll give it to you, even if you're a dissident, you can't let you live a long life."

"Yes, please yeah, without that diploma, Adam wouldn't be able to get a decent job."

"You leave everything the same to Adam, you don't have to worry."

"I'm counting on you, mbak."

"Well then Adam, let me go home now that your niece is looking for her at home."

"Be careful, ma'am." Adam let his sister in the car.

They waved to each other as a farewell.
