Turning Point

SIXTY-FOUR

Latitude smiled cynically. "You may be able to remove the marks on my cheeks, but until now it will remain imprinted here" Lintang replied as he pointed to his chest.

"Honey, I want to explain everything, will you listen to me?" said Agum. This time he again called Lintang with a call of affection, perhaps with the intention of making Lintang more trusting.

Lintang smiled bitterly. "Will that explanation of yours be able to erase the wound I am currently feeling?"

Agum's face was pinched. "Please, give me a chance to explain"

Lintang's body slightly moved away from Agum then he stepped his foot leaving Agum. "We can talk in the mas room!", said Lintang without turning towards Agum.

Agum also curled his smile. He hurried over to the room. Latitude is seen sitting in front of the dressing table, and Agum chooses to sit on Nana's bed.

The silence created in the room Lintang this morning. Today Agum is still getting his leave so he looks more relaxed.

"What do you want to explain to me?", asked Lintang to break the silence between the two.

The latitude position was facing the mirror, so he saw Agum from the reflection in the mirror. Agum approached Lintang, then slightly bent his body, and now his head was right in the recess of the Latitude neck.

Latitude turned his body so that now he turned his back to the mirror. Agum then placed both of his knees on the floor, while holding both hands of Latitude.

"Honey" said Agum lirih.

Lintang seemed impatient to immediately hear the explanation from Agum. "How long have you been playing behind me?", asked Lintang directly at the main point.

Agum. I don't know what path he has to take to cover everything, but right now he is really in a position that makes him so cornered. And it is no longer possible to cover it because it is wet. "Four months dear", replied Agum lirih.

The eyes of the Lintang. Instantly he let go of Agum's hand. "You said four months?, so during these four months I've been working on caring for a sick mother, you're out there having fun with that woman?"

Agum looked down while nodding slowly.

Latitude Heart rumbled, he tried to hold back his cries. "What do you think I am?, do you consider me to be a servant?, like this is your reward for all my deeds to you and your mother?"

The tears of Latitude could no longer be contained, his body trembled violently. His emotions seemed to be unable to hold on anymore.

Agum suddenly hugged the Latitude's body. "Darling, I'm sorry", he said softly.

Lintang did not return Agum's embrace, his hands still dangling down. "Did it be that during these four months, the woman also served you in bed?", asked Lintang with tears running down.

Agum tightened his embrace. "Dear, I'm sorry"

"Jawab me mas!",

They are increasingly unable to answer with words. His heart also rumbled. In the end, his lies had been exposed as well. Agum nodded slowly.

The heart of Latitude felt forced to return to turbulence. The stabbing of the invisible knife seemed to hit his heart. His body was increasingly trembling in Agum's embrace.

"What's my fault, why did you do all this to me. To the woman whom you have bound in a sacred bond of marriage, who conceived and bore your child, and who took care of your mother??

"Dear I'm sorry",

The latitude takes its breath in. "Let me go home to Mom's, I want to calm myself down"

"Sa-honey!!"

"I need some time, please!", said Lintang pleading.

**********

"Mother!!", cried Nana when she saw Lintang in the front yard of Ratih's mother's house.

"I'm so excited!!", replied Lintang while hugging her little daughter.

Latang then carried Nana. "Nana's eating?"

Nana kissed her mother's cheek. "Already dong mother, was the grandmother cooked spinach vegetables, very good"

"Ndhuk, are you here?", said Ratih's mother suddenly after seeing the arrival of Lintang.

Lintang and Nana also entered to approach Ratih's mother who was currently standing in front of the door.

Lintang tried to shake his smile. Trying to cover up her sadness in front of her mother.

"Yes ma'am, suddenly Latitude misses Nana" Lintang replied a little lie.

Ratih's mother scanned the face of his eldest son. Seeing Lintang's slightly swollen and swollen eyes, he knew that his son was lying.

Ratih's mother tried to hold back her curiosity. "Let's go in first"

Nana and Nana went inside. Nana then descends from the latitude sling.

"Mother, Nana played a doll in Friska's aunt's room first yes" said Nana while waltzing away.

Latitude smile. "Yes, baby"

Latitude dropped her body weight on the living room chair. His head felt a little heavy, and his stomach was hungry because it had not been filled since yesterday at all. Ratih's mother just looked at her son with a questionable look.

"What is going on with you, ndhuk?", asked Ratih's mother.

"Eh?", Latitude gasped in shock. "Ti-no ma'am, nothing happened at latitude"

Ratih's mother just smiled wryly. "Ndhuk, don't lie. What's wrong with you?"

Instantly want to feel Lintang tell his problem with Agum to his mother. But as hard as he could, he held it. However, this is the disgrace of her husband who should be tightly closed by Lintang.

Lintang tried to smile widely, in order to cut all his mother's worries. "No ma'am, nothing happened"

Ratih's mother still can't believe it. "But why are your eyes so swollen and puffy like that?",

"Oh yes ma'am?", asked Lintang as if surprised. Ratih's mother nodded.

"Oh, maybe this is because Lintang often remembered with mother-in-law ma'am, it was only yesterday she was gone, so Lintang still felt sad" Lintang replied lying.

"Hemmm you are ndhuk, you can find the reason" said Ratih's mother.

"Hemmm Latitude hungry mom, want to eat" said Latitude a little spoiled.

"Yes sit here first, let me get it" replied Ratih's mother.

"T-but bu_______"

"Here you sit there, do not ngeyel!", exclaimed Ratih's mother.

"Hehe thanks mom!"

The latitude also spread its body on the long chair in the living room. His eyes looked at the ceiling with a blank look. His chest still feels tight. Without feeling a clear water fell from his eye peluhan.

"Let me rest for a while Rabb" he said softly.
