Turning Point
SEVENTY EIGHT



Latitude smile. "I can't promise you anything, most importantly, I'm still here, holding you close to the love and devotion I have for you"


Agum stared in the shade of both eyeballs Latitude. "If you knew right now that Hanan still loved you, would you leave me and come back to him, dear?"


The latitude of his frown was not very understanding of what Agum said. "Mas mean?"


Agum took a deep breath. Finally the question that disturbed him was able to ask Lintang. He wants to know how Lintang responds if he finds out that Hanan still loves him.


"Hanan still loves you baby. I also hurt you once. Is it not in your heart that you desire to leave me to remember the wounds I once inflicted so deeply on your heart and return to it?" said Agum.


Lintang put a smile on his lips. "So according to the mas, I will repay all the treatment that has been done to me by accepting the presence of Hanan mas?"


Agum nodded slowly.


The latitude smiled back thinly. "I am not a vengeful man. I've told you that I don't have the slightest right to retaliate against all your treatment".


"But Hanan still loves you dear",


"As for Hanan's feelings that are still there for me, I can't even do anything to stop him. But one thing you should know, if Hanan will never try to seize what is not his. And I myself also will not do anything as low as that by accepting her presence when I am still your wife, because__________"


"Because what, baby?"


The latitude breathes slowly. "Because I don't want you to feel the same pain as I've ever felt.that being stuck in the past will only bring destruction to each of us"


Agum again hugged the Latitude body tightly. "I'm sorry, baby, I'm sorry"


Lintang nodded while trying to hold the tightness in his chest. "For now I can still bear this pain myself mas, I just ask that God always give me the strength to stay by your side"


Agum was getting sobbing in the arms of the Latitude. "What do I have to do so I can fix everything baby. I really don't want to lose you"


Latitude rubbed Agum's back. "Thank you for what God has given you. Whatever it is, even though it looks so imperfect in your eyes, but believe me, what God has given you must be the best for you"


"I'm stupid, baby, I'm stupid. Because of my unbelief, I almost lost a wingless angel like you" Agum said.


Latitude stretches Agum's embrace and gently rubs Agum's cheeks. "That's it, I don't need to talk about it anymore. Now sleep yuk. I'm so tired today.you know mas?, my legs feel sore all, almost a kilometer I push the motor"


Agum looked at his wife's face. "Lay, baby, let me have a massage"


"Eh, but?"


Agum pushed Lintang's body while smiling thinly. "It's really pure foot massage baby. Take it easy, I know if your monthly guests haven't left yet, so I won't mess around"


Agum began to massage the legs of Lintang, and Lintang also smiled widely. "Thank you, man"

Last night Lintang and her little family did sleep in Ratih's mother's place and this morning she started to ruffle through her mother's kitchen. He looks busy with cow's eye eggs in teflon while making fried rice.


"Honey?", call Agum suddenly while hugging him from behind.


"Yes mas?", he answered still with a sotil in his hand.


"Tomorrow you don't have a catering order, right?"


The latitude is trying to remember something. He also shook his head. "No, why did you?"


"We're going on a family vacation, baby"


Turn off the stove. And turn his body. "Vacation?, family?".


Agum nodded. "Dear, I want to keep my promise to Nana. And tomorrow we're going on vacation to Pacitan"


The latitude widened his eyes. "Pacitan?, seriously mas?"


"Yes dear, tomorrow Friska's mother is invited all of you, let it be crowded" replied Agum.


"Well?", asked Lintang.


Agum smiled widely. "Good bike, be healthy, hahahaa"


Latitude pinch waist Agum. "Iihhhh seriously mas!"


Agum hugged the body back. "Tomorrow let me rent a car baby, so we can go bustling".


Lintang also nodded with a sparkling face.


"Dad?!", called Nana suddenly from the direction of the middle room.


"Dad why the hug mother?, father has not taken a bath, later mother can smell tau?!", protested Nana.


Lintang and Agum chuckled at Nana's babbling. Agum approached Nana and held her. "Who says dad stinks, proof that mommy's hugging him, right mom?"


Lintang just smiled then moved his cow's eyes to the side dish.


Nana pursed her tiny lips. "Sick daddy!"


Agum smiled knot. "Tomorrow if we go for a walk, Nana won't come?"


Nana widened her eyes. "Walking around?, want to!!!"


"If you want, kiss this father's cheek dong first" said Agum while pointing at his cheek.


Nana then kissed Agum's cheek.


"Eh but, I went with my mother, Nana at home, yes" Agum joked.


Nana's face changed immediately. "Hiks. hiks... Mother, Nana wants to go for a walk"


Lintang glanced towards Agum. "Bag!!"


Agum chuckles and kisses Nana on the cheek. "Cup cup baby, yeah-yes, tomorrow we're all on vacation?"


Nana's face was back. "Really dad?".


Agum nodded.


"Horee!!!!", cried Nana excitedly.


Lintang just shook his head to see the behavior of the husband and his son. "Honey take a bath first yuk!", said Lintang.


"Yes mother".


******


Lintang stopped his motorbike at one of the traditional markets near his home. This time he bought some monthly stock and a little need for supplies tomorrow leave for Pacitan.


Latitude down each stall in this market with a very excited mood. It didn't feel like it was long ago that he didn't set foot in the market.


Bugg!!!!


Lintang's body dropped into someone as he was putting his groceries in. His eyes were pointing at that person. And his eyes were wide.


"Reni?!" said Latitude.


"Hi Lin, how are you?", replied Reni.


Latitude rubbed his eyes. He still does not believe, of the many traditional markets in Jogja, why Reni can arrive at a market that is so far from where he lives. After three more months he did not meet this woman, fate finally reunited them.


The latitude is awakened from its daydream. "I'm good"


Reni smiled cynically. "Do you have time?"


Lintang looked at him with a sinister look as well. "What's that?"


"I want to talk, there's something I have to say" Reni replied.


The latitude rolled both of his eyeballs. "What's that?"


"I________________"
