The Unconsidered Bungsu

CHAPTER 32 Marriage (2)

Television shows featuring continuous soap operas. Ma'am Nia and mom are watching. I don't like soap operas, the story goes that muters just stall for time to get longer episodes. Core problems are not solved - finish so bosen follows them.

Mending lying on the sofa alone while reading the novel in the Novel Toon application in HP. Every now and then Nia's mom and mom chatted, I just listened without connecting the chat.

" You still remember not the same Sulastri ma'am, who used to like to bring souvenirs from the garden ? " ask mom on Mbak Nia.

" The one whose house in Bawang village is yes, still remember the hell. I haven't been here in a long time, why Buk? " bak Nia swanthan asked.

" About a month ago the lastri came to the shop, he asked you. Mom just said you were married, it looks like she's disappointed. It turned out that lastri wanted to match you with her son, but had not been able to express to mother even hit a disaster. Sawabah flooded so that the harvest failed, relying only on the crops and gardens sold in the sub-district market. Never reach the central market, so never stop by the stall." Mom told me about Sulastri.

" So the other day he came here there was some other business or did he deliberately ask me ? so flattered." mbak Nia talked while grinning pleasure.

" Ge Er ! " so I stuck out his tongue.

" Barin ! the sign is I still do ha ha ha ! " bak Nia laughed proudly. Huuh ! fortunately there is no joni mas, if there is run out he glared at the same diomelin. Joni is jealous.

" It has been almost a year since Sulastri began to deposit crops again to traders in the central market, but did not stop by the stalls because of frequent kesorean. Continue a month ago he stopped by the stall alone to buy fertilizer. When mom says you're married, Miss Lastri looks disappointed." Mother sighed.

" Where's her son Miss Lastri ? only about the soul mate should be sought. Doesn't she have girlfriends? " manyu chimed.

" Either that. The Yudha had no female friends, she had a business at home so she rarely went out. In the past, it was about to be introduced to Nia's new business of chicken cattle. Now increased there are ducks, catfish are equally indigo, have even started goat livestock as well." Mom told me with a bright face.

Mom then went to the kitchen to make coffee for the father who was sitting on the terrace.

" Waduh ! sorry you Ma'am, try first you know Yudha, will be rich you hi hi ! " my yell is pumping on Nia's mom. I stopped my reading for a moment.

" Yeee , continue to mas Joni want to be accompanied ? that's not a soul mate yet. You are the only one who replaced me, both his sons bu Wahyu also. "mbak Nia replace mengjawaiku.

" Ogaaah ! shy guy rich it later even shy ! " my voice while staring back at the HP screen.

" How rich, have you ever met Yudha ? " ask Nia wonder.

" It was yesterday, he came here with his mother. Keep his mother away he said there was a need, I was told to accompany the conversation." I grumbled.

Mother who just came out of the kitchen immediately said, "Yes it's okay, so you can get closer to Yudha. Miss Lastri wants you to accompany Yudha, it seems more suitable."

What ? I became Yudha's companion, aka his wife ? Oh my God ! Ms. Sulastri is obsessed with being with my mother. Want to be proud at times in his village, if his son who is a successful farmer has a wife city girl.

" Ha ha ha ! isn't it true? ms. Lastri wants you to be her daughter-in-law. No wonder, you will eat chicken every day, duck with goat." Nia's mother is becoming more and more my skewer.

" Keep on, satisfied huh? " grutukus. I am not in the mood to continue reading novels. Mother came in again after giving a cup of hot coffee for dad on the terrace.

" Well, what if you eat chicken with duck? that is his livelihood. After all, he had a lot of customers. Don't look at what the job is, but look at the results."

" Yes sorry, I was just kidding" said Nia.

I was still silent, trying to understand what my mother said about Yudha. What's wrong with me trying to get to know him more closely.

The job is good, the parents know him well. His face is not ugly either. The status of my relationship with Arya is unclear. I'd like to see how he reacts if he finds out I already have another guy.

_________

A week later Yudha came again without the company of her mother. How surprised I was when he handed me a neatly packed food box.

" Is this Mas Yudha, why bother bringing me food. There's plenty of food here."

" But this one is different food, just open it !" her door.

Without a word I opened the food box of Yudha. Jesus ! it turns out that it contains one complete roasted duck equally sambel and lalap.

Her appearance was appetizing, it did not seem to be from the restaurant I used to visit. The patch also looks very good, different from the usual sauce.

" Geez, this looks so good ! where did you buy it anyway? "

" That's my mom cooking. I told you yesterday that you like roasted ducks. Instead of buying cooking yourself. But sorry if the taste is less pleasing, because this time the mother cooked a roasted duck."

The mother who had just finished praying came out as soon as she heard Yudha's voice.

" Eh there's Yudha boy, who's mother ? " ask mom when Yudha is having it.

" Mom was in the house of Miss Kades, but the greetings were given to the mother of Revelation, he said," replied Yudha.

" Greetings waalaikum, Aira make drink for nak Yudha ! " cried mother then went inside and spoke whispered to mbak Sri.

" Eat dong duck bakenya, let's know the taste does not fit on your tongue. I'll be able to answer if I ask you." Yudha opened the conversation.

" But it's the same as you, yes, I don't feel good eating alone" I said. I took two plates of white rice.

" Just you, I ate at home." Yudha refused subtly. But I kept the duck cut and I put it on the plate and I put it in front of Yudha.

" Eat at home, right, now hungry again, right? let's not go a little pa pa pa. The time I ate while you were just worried. "

Wow ! it turns out the village people are smart to cook. The grilled duck tastes different to the one I've eaten. The meat is softer and the seasoning goes all the way inside. The sauce is also mantab, there is a terasi sambel and tomato sauce.

Really Top deh bu Sulastri.

Finish eating immediately I clean the dishes and the rest of the side dishes I brought inside. Sri's mother and mother came out because there was a buyer who came.

" Chat inside, son Yudha, be comfortable. " Mom told Yudha to go into the kitchen.

" Yes Buk" said Yudha, rising up and entering. Actually it is also uncomfortable for me to chat with a guy in a narrow room gini, especially those who are new to know. Different if in front because it still looks someone else. But what can be done because outside there is a buyer. Yudha must have felt bad too.

In the middle of our conversation Yudha also pulled out a cell phone.

" I'm asking for your contact number, Aira, right ?" said it. For a moment of hesitation, should he keep my number ? Is this close ?

But then I said, "May."

I mentioned my 12-digit HP number to him. Then Yudha also sent a WA message to my HP.

After chatting a lot and shop visitors have also been on the exit Yudha also paid back home.

________

At night when I went to sleep there was WA coming in from Yudha.

[Good night Aira, I slept]

I was so lazy to read it because I was sleepy.

[This new want to sleep 🥱 ]

I gave her an emoji so she knew I was sleepy.

[Oya already, good night yes 🙏 ]

[heem 😴 ]

That's all I wrote. I put my phone under my pillow.

Why did Yudha send messages this night ? This was beyond my expectations. Even though he had my contacts, he shouldn't have been chating at night. Hello ! we have only met 2 times.

Are all guys like that yes, it looks quiet but if it is close to the girl just play attack.

In my shadow Yudha will not be that brave. Most of them ask about the news during the day. He rarely gets along, too, he said. He could watch youtube a lot.

I'm not even sleepy. Really upset with Yudha ! I just opened the Noveltoon app.

Usually when I read a novel for a long time I fall asleep. Half an hour later, my eyes closed.

At dawn I opened my eyes but still refused to get out of bed.

Tok tok !

" Aira wakes up morning prayers ! " dad knocked on the door woke me up. A little lazy I went to the bathroom for ablution.

" Tumben this hour has not left the room," said the father as it passed.

Not that I was lazy to pray but because I was still upset with WA from Yudha last night.

After I finished praying, I folded my face and prayer mat, and then I sat in the chair while turning on the phone. I opened the WA message again from Yudha, and then I deleted it. Always like this. Just because something trivial can make me change my mind.

I became insecure with Yudha, no longer in the mood. I don't know why I refuse to continue the relationship further. Suddenly I remembered Arya. Although I've erased her contact, I haven't been able to erase her from my mind.

But why didn't he call me, too ? It's not like he still keeps my number.

At 6 am I rushed to take a shower and then went to the shop. While waiting for the angkot mbak Tutik to appear while sweeping the terrace.

" Hey Aira ! tumben riding angkot, usually on foot." He reproves me. I smiled .

" Another males road Mbak, it was the wake of bad luck." I replied lethargic. A few moments later angkot came and I went straight in after saying goodbye to Tutik. In the angkot idea arises, what if I play to Arya's place later ?

I haven't been there for 3 months. He misses me the same I don't. I smiled to myself, but I hurriedly closed my mouth before the other passengers saw.

Fortunately the angkot is not yet full.
