The Secret Admirer of Dusk

The Secret Admirer of Dusk
Forgotten Because...



Bayu and Rudi finish with their breakfast show, but are still reluctant to leave. They were still enjoying the coffee they had just ordered. Indeed, the place is very suitable and comfortable to relax, especially this morning the air is very cool without overcast or excessive heat.


After all Bayu also still kept a lot of question marks in his mind. According to him, the story of Rudi is not complete, so it has not satisfied his curiosity.


Suddenly his phone that he put on the table rang, displaying the name of someone who had just become the object of his conversation with Rudi.


"Bang Angga? Long live this guy, what's the feeling if it's bullshit again?" gumam Bayu lirih's.


He shifted the green button, then placed the flat object in his ear.


"Assalamu'alaikum, Bang-"


"Waalaikumsalam, where's Andra?" Angga interrupted Bayu's speech before the man finished his speech.


"Ee, Andra's not here anymore, Bang. Why?"


"Continue where? Why can't I get on the phone?"


Bayu frowned, not usually the brother of the boss was looking for Andra. Is there anything urgent and very important, he thought.


"The wood doesn't know, Bang. Probably busy with his wife, too,"


Angga clucking, "ck. Usually you're always there wherever the kids are,"


"Yes I have to do honeymoon people," cried Bayu.


"Emang there you say if it's not Andra honeymoon, bego!"


"Yes, too," muttered Bayu after thinking for a moment, "but don't go into their room business too, Bang!"


"Yaudahlah.ntar if you're the same, say that I nyariin, keep telling my phone back," said Angga.


"Yes, Bang-waduh! Seruni has been here aja tuh," cried Bayu who suddenly saw the arrival of Seruni at the end of the road.


The call of Bayu that still sounded clear on Angga's phone, made the man frown to feel remembering something.


"Whose union, Bay?"


"Groomet, Rud! Where am I talking, Rud?" Bayu panicked to see Seruni walking closer and closer towards him.


Bayu quickly pulled the hodie hat he wore to cover his entire head perfectly, after which he fell asleep on his stomach by patting his body on the limit of the gazebo. While Rudi also shifted to the edge near Bayu by covering his head with a sheet of laminated menu paper.


"baby? Seruni who?" ask Angga again.


Feeling that he did not get an answer, Angga further hardened his voice, "Wood? Do you still hear me?"


"Sat.ntar, Bang. Again this,"


"Well why the hell lo? That seruni sipa, Bay?" ask Angga repeatedly because it has not been answered by Bayu.


Angga feels very familiar with the name but has not been able to remember fully who the owner of the name is.


"Seruni? Why do I feel familiar with the same name, even very familiar," muttered Angga himself but heard by Bayu.


"Obviously familiar, she's a lo girl!" Bayu subconsciously, then the man immediately smothered his mouth that tersplosan. Bayu immediately pressed the red button to end the call.


"What do you mean, Bay?"


"Hello? Bayu?" Angga stared at his phone, "well, that's not right, boy! Play dead-matting phone alone,"


Angga quickly returned to call Bayu, but was not picked up by Bayu. As he was about to re-shift the 'panggi again' button, suddenly the door of his room was knocked from the outside.


"Lake in!" He said with annoyance.


"Sorry, Sir. Outside there was a mistress" the man who was Angga's assistant was cut off by Angga's question.


"Mrs who do you mean?"


"That lady, sir. Which is usually,"


"Ck, the crazier you are." Inner Angga,


"Have the security guards take the woman out of the company! If he doesn't want to, drag him to the point of not setting foot on this office floor again!" Angga said firmly.


The sentence is the longest sentence ever heard by the assistant during his work with Angga. Until the assistant gawked in disbelief with what he heard.


"The arga? You're horrifying me, aren't you?"


"Y-yes, sir," p


"Do it!"


"Good, Sir. Excuse me," said the assistant named Arga.


"Why did I get stuck with a woman like that? No shame, no self-respect, too" Angga murmured in his heart.


"Pain, heartbreak is not there. There is only disgust at having been married to a woman who can justify any means to achieve her wish,"


Angga straightened his body that was originally leaning on the chair, "Seruni? Why did Bayu say she was my girl?" he muttered with his left hand, while his right hand tapped on the pen.


The man who has a firm gesture is still loyal to join in with all his thoughts about his past as well as about the girl named Seruni who he just heard his name, (again).

Because too engrossed in their chatter ngalor ngidul, Andra and Dusk to forget that at this time they should have followed both parents to the hospital.


The conversation, which was originally only about apologies, propagates to the feelings of those who do not believe if destined to be together, to discuss the past that is full of meaning.


Sometimes there was laughter from the couple, as if there was no more awkwardness they felt. Who a few months ago was still like a stranger who almost never greeted, but now they become a very close person, who at all times always together as a husband and wife.


"Mas Andra inget, you used to love climbing trees, especially fruit trees," said Andra with sparkling eyes.


"So if someone cooks you directly eat on the tree directly, even the skin is still intact in the stalk without you picking first," kekeh Andra.


Laughing at that, because it is true. In fact, there was once a person who was the owner of the fruit tree was surprised when harvesting the fruit there was only skin on the stalk.


"Does he still like kayaking?"


"Still, stay behind the house. Although the land is only that much, Adek nglarang Mr. Pas want to nebang it's a tree, it's a pity if it is cut down, Adek so has no hiding place," replied Dusk casually while eating apples.


Andra shook his head to hear the answer snag wife, how does not expect it if the wife who looks grown up was still the same as a dozen years ago when he was a child.


But it actually makes it more anxious, especially when he saw the cool Dusk gnawing on a green apple with the sound of 'krauk krauk' is very tempting, until both cheeks seem bulging because it is full.


Andra stared at Dusk, which in her view now turned into Cenil, or Dusk as a child. His short, disheveled hair, dull facial skin, tiny body with little content, looks very healthy because there is always a lot of activity.


Eyes that are always clear sparkling when seeing or eating something that is loved. What a simple figure who is always happy, to bring happiness also to anyone around him.


"Dad?"


"Hmm?"


"Ma"


The ringing of Andra's cell phone stopped the chewing activity of Dusk, as well as the words that the man was about to say.


"Mother's phone" Andra said slowly at Dusk after reading who the caller was.


"... ..."


"Girishalama, Buk. How, Buk?"


"... ... ... ... ..."


Andra patted her forehead hearing the words of her mother-in-law.


"Astaghfirulloh's chat.. Sorry, Buk. We forgot,"


"..."


"Yes Buk, Assalamu'alaikum," Andra again put down her phone after turning off the call.


"Dec, hunt ready, come on!"


"Where are you going?"


"Hospital,"


"Who's sick?"


"Geez! You forgot it like it was,"


Dusk rubbed his eyes, occasionally his forehead twitched thinking.


"Muti Bu, Deck. The one who was hospitalized! Oh, gauntlet,"


"Oo yes, I forgot. Astagfirulloh's chat.. Take a shower first,"


"Who?"


"Yes Adek is.. Our time,"


"If you can, don't papa, Deck." Unfortunately, that phrase only exists in Andra's mind.
