Turning Point

SEVENTY NINE

"I_________"

"Wait!!", said Lintang cutting Reni's words.

The latitude circulates the view around it. He felt uncomfortable if he had to talk to Reni in a standing position like this.

"It's good that we don't chat here" said Lintang

Reni nodded. Finally Lintang and Reni also stepped foot into the tofu shop beside the entrance of the market.

Lintang ordered two warm teas, of course for himself and Reni. Soon the shopkeeper placed two warm teas in front of them.

Latitude scanned Reni's face. "So, what do you want to say?"

Reni stared fixedly at the face of Latang. "So this is what brought the Agum mas back to you?"

Latitude rolled her eyeballs. "You mean?"

Reni smiled cynically. "I see, now your appearance is much different. Do you want to compete with me?"

Latitude smiled cynically. "I never felt outcast. Between you and me without competing, I'm the champion"

Reni smiled her smile cynically as well. "You're too confident"

The latitude exhaled a rough breath. "That's all clear. I am the legal wife of Mas Agum, while you?, you are just a woman who has no job other than to disturb the household of others"

Reni sneering. "Are you really not willing to give up?, and release the Agum mas for me?"

Lintang smiled bitterly. "I'm not going to give up because God hasn't told me to stop"

Reni scanned the facial expression of Latitude. He just smiled cynically.

This woman has not given up either. We will see who will accept the defeat. Am I or are you?

"Is this all you want to talk about?", Lintang asked suddenly breaking Reni's daydream.

"Yes, actually I just want to make sure that you've given up and let go of the Agum mas for me. But it turns out that you are still so overconfident in your efforts to maintain mas Agum" replied Reni.

Latitude smiled cynically. "Yes, I'm confident. Because the bond of marriage is much holier than the bond of infidelity. And my duty to keep that chastity unfinished has not come here, even if you have desecrated it"

Reni sneering. "Just do what you believe. But I can assure you, one day I will have Agum mas"

"Assalamualaikum", Lintang said his greetings when he arrived at the terrace of his house.

"Wa'alaikumsalam", replied someone who was in the living room.

Lintang circulated his gaze into that living room. He was suddenly surprised..

"M-mas Danang?!!" , said Lintang still do not believe if Danang is in his house.

Danang smiled. "How's my brother doing?"

Lintang approached Danang and then shook Danang's hand.

"I'm good mas. Mas Danang when to reach Jogja, how can you immediately know that Lintang is at home mother?", said Lintang.

Danang smiled. "I just got to Jogja Lin, and Agum was also telling me that you're at mom's house, so I came straight here"

Latitude nodded. Danang scanned the facial expression of Latitude. "What's been going on for almost four years that I haven't set foot in Jogja Lin?"

Latitude smile. "A lot of people, maybe if I told you it could be a novel"

Danang chuckles. "Don't you want to make a novel so that a lot of people know your life story?"

Latitude. "Hhaaaha mas Danang could have been".

"Mother, have you come home from the market?", said Nana while running a small approach to Lintang.

Latitude aligns her height with Nana's height. "Honey already. Is Nana salim the same as Danang?"

Nana nodded. "Already mother, om Danang was also giving Nana candy, he said souvenirs from Surabaya"

"Then say what is the same about Danang?", asked Lintang.

"Thank you, um"

Danang smiled as she ruffled Nana's hair. "Beloved together"

Shortly after, Ratih's mother appeared from the direction of the middle room. "Mas Danang, let's have breakfast first. That's already mom's getting ready at the dinner table"

Danang smiled clumsyly. "Thank you ma'am, sorry Danang got so troublesome"

Ratih's mother smiled. "No, let's have breakfast first"

****

splitting the silence of this early twilight. Finished watering the plants in his yard Lintang chose to sit in front of the terrace while enjoying the atmosphere of the afternoon today.

"Lin?", call Danang.

"Yes?", replied Lintang.

And who breathed in. "I know what's going on in your household with Agum. Are you still holding on to stay by Agum's side?"

The latitude scrunched his forehead. "Do you think I'd better just give up?"

Danang shook his head. "That's not what I mean". And again exhaled a rough breath. "Often I meet when a wife finds out her husband is playing behind, they immediately file a divorce lawsuit________"

"I can still get through this all mas" said Lintang trimmed Danang's words. The latitude breathes deeply. "Lintang also once promised to the mother-in-law that I would always accompany mas Agum"

Danang flabbergasted. "I didn't expect if you were this tough Lin"

Latitude smile. "Although Reni is still plaguing my life, but I still don't want to give up. Mas Agum has tried to fix everything so it is not fair also if I do not try to accept and forgive him"

"So lucky Agum has a wife like you Lin. I can only condemn the stupidity of Agum because it hurt you" said Danang.

Lintang put on her smile. "At least I also thank Reni mas"

Danang scrunched his forehead. "Thank you?, she meant?"

The latitude chuckles small. "Because of the presence of Reni it was who had forged me into a stronger woman and could stand on my own feet. When God gave me a wound at one point, it turned out that God also gave me a blessing at another"

Danang nodded. He understood what Lintang said. That his patience so far made him succeed with the effort pioneered by him.

You're really stupid Gum..

*****

"Mas Danang will come to Pacitan all of you tomorrow", said Agum.

Currently Lintang, Agum and Danang are in the dining room to eat dinner. While Ratih's mother, Nana and Friska had already rested in the room.

"Didn't I interrupt your show?", asked Danang.

Latitude gulped down the white water that was in front of him. "Absolutely not mas, we are actually seneng if we can rame-rame a picnic, so it's more exciting"

Agum nodded. "That's what mas is. Besides, we can vacation together like a gini"

"Alright then", replied Danang.

They also enjoyed their dinner. Only the sound of the twang of the spoon clashing with the plate that made his butterflies in the dining room. Shortly after, they finished eating dinner and returned to their rooms.

When in the room, Lintang looks to be changing clothes with a sleeveless negligee that makes it more comfortable to sleep.

"Darling?", said Agum behind the body of Lintang.

"Yes mas?", he answered while smearing night cream on his face.

Agum hugged Lintang's body and placed his head at the nape of Latitude. Agum bit the small neck of Lintang and made it goosebumps instantly.

"Your monthly guest hasn't left yet, dear?", asked Agum in a slightly raucous voice.

The latitude smiled thinly. "Yet, Inshaallah after coming home from Pacitan I am holy again"

Agum breathed a rough breath. "When I want to spend time with you, baby"

Lintang pinched her husband's cheek with anxiety. "Where can we make out mas, who will take care of Nana?"

Agum smiled clumsyly. "Hehe can we leave it to my dear mother"

Lintang shook his head then kissed Agum's cheek gently. "Udah is now sleeping yuk mas. Tomorrow we're going on a long journey"

He then laid his body on the bed. While Agum looks still not willing. "Dear, but how am I?, I really want to"

"No mas, wait tomorrow after returning from Pacitan" said Lintang while covering his head with a blanket.

"You are evil dear!!!", said Agum while dropping his body weight beside the body of Latang. The latitude was just giggling under his blanket. He closed his eyes and tried to embrace the dream....
