UNINTENTIONALLY

Episode 124

FIRST TWO MONTHS

That morning at half-eight. Johan had just come down the stairs while buttoning the collar on his wrist.

It was raining, as usual. Rain has indeed continued to hit lately, especially floods continue to roil some areas in the capital.

"It's neat, breakfast before leaving," Lady Diana reminded her son. They passed on the stairs.

"Yes Ma" replied Johan briefly. The man who was standing a bit from his mother, was indeed wanting to go to the dining table.

But before that, Lady Diana remembered that she wanted to ask her son something.

"Oh, by the way, it has been three months that Wong's group's son has not been heard. Do you know any news about him?" Lady Diana who just wanted to pass from the stairs. Just before leaving, he asked Johan. It had become his habit of gossiping, and it could not be lost. Especially Steve news, he was more interested in discussing it when the man who had treated him unkindly in front of him was dying.

"Johan doesn't know about him either. There's nothing to do with Johan between her life and her death." Johan nonchalantly responded to the words of the Mother. He was also furious when he discussed the sneak. Anyway, for bad luck johan to talk about Steve or say his name.

"Mom think you know something," said the somewhat disappointed Lady Diana at the end of her speech.

Johan turned his head, His mother looked rather excited about the man earlier. "What if he had no news. Tumben Mama wants to talk about him?" johan asked who was starting to wonder.

"Well, it's good that he didn't recover from his illness. Or else he's dead. Mama's expecting the man's death, let him know the taste."

"What does Mama mean?" ask Johan again. When his mother said that, somehow his words were a bit ambiguous and invited questions from Johan.

"Mama only......"

His mother looked around. Sometimes on the floor, sometimes in the direction of the kitchen, sometimes also in the direction of the pool on the right side. Then after that he pulled Johan's hand, a bit away from the living room.

"Mama wouldn't mind if you married Dinda. Mama agreed," he whispered softly.

"Your mom doesn't slur anymore, does she?" Hearing the words of the Mother just now, Johan was like a dream. He climbed both of his eyebrows, honestly this felt like a dream in broad daylight.

What does Mama mean? Is he planning something. Or Mama tried to lure me with her plan, could Mama—

"Mama's really serious this time," Lady Diana struck out in a hurry. "Mama will bless the relationship between Mama and Dinda's son."

"Never joke around with Johan?" Johan made sure. He saw the look on her face, there was nothing suspicious. But it felt strange to suddenly say that.

Why do I feel so weird. Mom like this, it feels a bit different than before.

Johan looked at the mother's face again and again. His face looked confidently said seriously. But—

"Kok Tumben Mama agrees with Johan? Mama's not sick anymore or—"

"Ish, Mama's not sick or nervous and stuff!" look at Lady Diana. "Mama spoke seriously. Mama is supporting you!"

Suddenly the words agreed to come out of the mother's mouth, Johan felt a bit worried again. Because the mother who always obstructed, now turned rather strange.

"Mama was suddenly like this, leaving Johan confused as to how to respond." Although the mother has admitted that she agrees, but Johan needs to examine it properly. He did not want to just believe in his mother.

"Gini yes, Mama tell you," Lady Diana continued. Before that, he looked around again. Until he felt completely safe to say. "So, Mama thought. You and Dinda are a good fit. Mama does not agree that you are in a match with her son Wong's group. Mama is not willing. So, Mama thinks that you're with Dinda a lot better. She is beautiful and educated, even from a modest family. Mama can consider him now."

"But you didn't like Dinda?" Johan interrupted. He reminded his mother of the events of the past few years. "But why now Mama turned into someone who likes her. Johan was really doubtful to Mama this time."

"That's because Mama was forced to follow your stubborn Papa's will" Diana explained. "Again, now the Tama family group business is also at the top at the moment. Mama didn't agree that you were married to Dinda because our family business is still on the edge. But now, after the Heri family is over. There's nothing to worry about anymore. You married Dinda too, Mama agreed. The important thing is that you're happy, you're willing to lower your ego a little."

"So, Mama!" Johan widened his eyes. His surprise led him to understand the situation. "Mama's attitude to Vanya,"

"That's fake," greeted Lady Diana with a slick expression. "You think Mama really likes her presence in our house. Especially always acting great, Mama doesn't like."

Realizing that his mother had been on his side, Johan grinned happily. "This is what I expected."

"Forgot your happiness now" Lady Diana interjected. He knew that his son was very happy because the son expected all this. "What you have to do is. You have to persuade Papa. Remember that! As long as your Papa doesn't open his blessing, as long as he's a barrier to your intention to marry the girl."

No need for her mother to remind herself. Johan knew that his father's parents were always the opposite of what he wanted. "If this is a problem, Mama don't worry. Johan can handle it."

"But don't do crazy things anymore. Mama has been helping you all this time, all you have to do is convince Papa. No one else," back Lady Diana reminded.

Already unemployed for the first two months, Dinda can only dwell at home. He was still reluctant to look for another job, as he still could not clear his chaotic mind.

Dinda put her body on the bed. At ten in the morning he had not even taken a shower. Just playing the gadget, sometimes playing games on a personal computer, sometimes also rolls erratic.

In the middle of her laptop playing, Dinda accidentally sees photos of herself with Steve.

"Picture in Korea,"

Dinda remembers the photo when Dinda and Steve were buying a red bandana. Then there is another photo, which is when he was on a cruise ship on the Huangpu river, Shanghai. There are many more photos that he scrolls, it turns out more and more.

"I've collected hundreds of pictures over the years." Dinda did not expect, it turns out, for a long time often collect the pictures. Now the number fills his laptop gallery.

Dinda occasionally recalls, where she once took a picture of Steve while working secretly. Oh, she also remembered where back in Shanghai, the man asked her to bathe him.

When she remembered the incident, Dinda laughed. "If you have no news at this time. I never once forgot you. For three months I tried to forget you, but still. You're a selfish man who's forever a part of my life."

Right, during these three months Dinda tried to smile in the midst of sadness and longing that was bearable. Since Steve's departure, not a single call from him has been made to Dinda's cell phone.

Though the phone is always in online mode never even Dinda left. Just because of waiting for a call from Steve, Dinda willingly like this.

"True Miko. Supposedly, two months ago I went to Germany or to Shanghai looking for you. But honey, I refused Miko's advice. Even though I intend to look for you even though I finally gave up, still, I regret quickly stopping waiting for you."

Dinda looked once again at the cute pictures of Steve in her mobile phone gallery. Dinda clutched him in the chest, occasionally kissing him. Right now Dinda is strong and strong. Whatever Steve was, he was waiting for him. Every time Dinda called her family, at that time all the calls she made were unsuccessful.

"I went to Grandma's house last week. As a result, my grandmother was not at home either. This time Johan was right. It could be that you have recovered, and then married Peni without my knowledge. Whatever you have planned behind my back. I believe that God will bring you and me the best happiness. And it's time I have to be sincere if one day we meet, you're no longer with me."

Johan last week met him at a cafe near a recreational lake. There Johan complained all his arguments about Steve. Dinda knew that Johan was trying to provoke her, but it wouldn't work. Dinda believed only in what she saw, not in Johan's unwarranted argument.

However, Dinda did not rule out the possibility that what Johan said was true. Perhaps, during these three months, the man had already forgotten about her. Anything can happen, who knows fate.

"Minda." From behind the door of her room, she heard the voice of her mother calling.

Dinda remembered, her mother had invited her to go to the super market. It has been a week not shopping, this time Dinda wants to accompany her mother. He wanted to let go of the fatigue of two months of doing nothing.

"Yes Mom. Just sec. Dinda's still getting changed" Dinda replied from her bedroom.

"Uh, this kid. Must be playing games again." While nagging, Mother Yuri tidied up the scarf she used on her head in lieu of a head covering.

Waiting for Dinda to come out of her room and leave. When Dinda was ready, her mother was a bit gobsmacked. "Totally neat? We're just going to the supermarket."

"Dinda's got a little business outside. So Dinda was dressed like this," she told me.

"Yes already is. Let's go." Yuri's mother did not ask details of where her daughter was going. He was sure what Dinda was doing must be related to something that was fine.

"Co. What the hell was that thinking?" reprimand Dendy to Miko who has been sitting in class since. Though the school break bell has been started, not as usual Miko like that.

"Nothing," replied Miko.

"Related?"

Miko nodded. "There's just a little problem."

Dendy, a teenager who had fought with Johan was interested when he heard his closest friend discuss something serious.

"What is Ko. Tell me, who knows I can help you with solutions," he said curiously.

"Small problem anyway. I'm not sure if you can help either."

"Haiyah. Bro," said Dendy, embracing his friend. "You and I have been friends since Junior High. What the hell have I never helped you find a solution for? If I can help, why not. Come, say. Is that the problem?"

Miko looked at Dendy nanar. Although Miko did not want to share the story, but—

"Your brother is still a doctor in Germany."

"Yes," Dendy nodded quickly. "Why is that?"

"That's the problem!" said Miko bluntly.

"Wait, wait. How tumben discussed my brother everything. What the hell is it? It seems serious."

Although Miko is not sure about this, but she wants to try it—by Kak Dinda.

"It's something that others may not know." Miko looked around her class, and a moment later she pulled Dendy's ear, then said quietly to her earlobe.

Miko whispered, maybe she doesn't want any of her other classmates to know about their conversation.

Despite the break, classes are still crowded. It's natural to think Miko is whispering.

"Well! Seriously?" after Miko whispered, Dendy gasped in surprise. "Well, for three months, no news?"

"Sstt..... Don't be so noisy. Others will know."

"Oops, sorry."

Dendy slowly somewhat understood Miko's story. Three months is not a short time to wait. Supposedly, for three months it is also usually common people know that healing will slowly improve in a period of time like this. Moreover, hospitals in Germany are fairly good facilities, it is likely to be fast healing if it is like this.

"I'll try to call my sister later. If you contact him at a time like this, the call will be diverted. He was busy at hours like this. Moreover, he's guarding the night, now Germany's the night at the moment."

"OKAY. If there's any word from your brother, you should let me know immediately."

Asking for help from Dendy's sister who works at a German hospital, Miko thought it was good. Investigating Steve, who knows with help from brother Dendy it can make it easier for him to know the state of Steve.

"But Ko. During those three months, she really didn't know Dinda's sister?" ask Dendy again. "Don't that include anything weird, right?"

"For example?"

"Yes it could be if he has no news—maybe he wants to break his relationship with brother Dinda. Moreover, the reason for treatment, during these three months it feels strange," said Rendy arguing.

"Of course." Although it makes sense what Dendy says, Miko looks desperate. He thought about his brother's fate. How could that woman live her life normally if she herself had to be heartbroken like this.

"Then? You and brother Dinda have been trying to find him. For example, to his house or to his relatives?"

Miko shook her head. "Since the day he left, there was no news. It's like the gap to his personal life is hard to get."

"Ckckl.... Just so much for him."

"He's evil" Miko said.

"Yes, that's what it is!"
