When Talak Has Spoken

Chapter 39 Is Getting Closer

“Dek ... “ he gestured for his friend to continue gymnastics while he walked near the door right next to Bisma and Lala who were now in his father's arms.

“Ya mbak,” with sprightly Dimas already in front of him.

“Why do you let strangers in our yards?” the cynical speech of Ajeng who asked Dimas but insinuated himself was only repaid by Bhishma with a smile.

Seeing Ajeng who was bathed in sweat, with an oversize shirt that was now sticky on his body made the mind of Bisma more pervasive buana. Her hair covered with a special hijab for gymnastics did not diminish the beauty that Bhishma saw.

“Exciting ... “ his inner self cannot hide the admiration of the former figure who still looks at him sharply.

“Mas Bisma wants to meet Lala,” Dimas is trying to defend Bhishma who is now busying himself with Lala who is now taking him outside.

“Excuse me. I will bring Lala breakfast in front,” said Bisma casually without caring about Ajeng's sharp delicacy.

A smile of victory rose on his handsome face as soon as it passed from the two brothers who were still in a struggle because of his presence.

“Lala this morning want to go with dad?” Bisma asked her daughter who now started walking on her own as she pulled down from the sling.

“Yayan?” her daughter's clear eyes make Bisma realize that Lala is a perfect blend of herself and Ajeng.

The contours of the face, nose and lips and hair are derived from them. While the clear round eyes are Ajeng's.

“Honey dad first .... “ Bisma bends herself parallel to Lala.

“Cup ... “ light kcup Lala makes hatin Bhishma warm up.

He immediately gave light kisses on the cute face and adorable daughter. Lala's eyes are the target of the Bisma's frown. He imagined kissing Ajeng's face with his eyes still showing annoyance as he passed carrying his daughter.

“Cudah. Ade wants to play ... “ Lala's tiny hand holds her face still reluctant to move away from her little daughter.

“Alright dear ... “ finally Bhishma took off Lala and followed her small steps that led both of them to the fish pond.

Seeing the growth and development of Lala in this month makes Bisma more confident will not release both on anyone. He will fight for the integrity of his small family.

“Why did you let the man be here?” Ajeng was still dissatisfied with Dimas due to the presence of Bhishma.

“Feeling me said mas Bisma want to refer,” Dimas replied casually, “Liat aja how to look at mbak, dalem terget .... “

“Ngawur you,” Ajeng not happy with the words Dimas, “Quick pack there. Ntar mas Hilman will come to pick you up.”

“Mbak can't believe ... “ said Dimas casually while wandering away leaving him directly in the house.

Before long Dimas passed from his sight, Ajeng came back to his gymnastic friend.

“Who was that handsome guy?”  Resta was curious to see the attitude of Bhishma who brought Lala without rejection from him, because he knew, the little one was not easy to get close to strangers.

“Don't he be his father?” guess Ina for a moment.

Without opening his mouth Ajeng just nodded his head, while putting cold drinks and snacks in front of the three.

“Ah, time anyway?” Their gymnastics instructor's not in belief.

“Has face looks exactly the same. handsome grandma!” tukas Resta, “Ngapain you split ma father Lala?”

“Maybe our soul mate is short,” Ajeng said with his flat smile.

“Your ex works at Diskopindag Malang right?” go after Ina again.

Back Ajeng nodded his head. He is actually lazy to discuss personal issues. He did not want to remember the old wounds that still left scars to this day.

The three continued the light conversation. But Ajeng tried to avoid conversations about his personal life. Chat nggalor ngidul for a while, finally the three Ajeng gymnastics colleagues resigned themselves.

Bisma had finished breakfast with her little daughter. His body started to grow tired because he had not changed clothes. Though he is a super cleaning type, but because of his desire to be close to Ajeng and his daughter, he was forced to wear clothes overnight.

“Dim, “call it on Dimas that already looks neat and fragrant.

Dimas who was ready to wait for Hilman's arrival on the terrace of the cafe restaurant immediately approached Bisma who was now standing with Lala playing in the side garden.

“What's up mas?” ask Dimas casually.

“Mas don't bring change of clothes. Borrow yours,” pinta Bisma expectantly.

“Emang mas not coming home? Where is yesterday?”  Dimas immediately leaned in with a question making Bisma smile thinly.

He knew Dimas could be expected to help. And it was Dimas who still considered her other than his little daughter Lala of course.

Dimas. All this time he knew, his former brother-in-law was a type of lover of neatness and cleanliness. He doesn't like it when other people wear his personal belongings. Trivial things will make him angry and silence for days if there are things that are not in accordance with his wishes. That's what he knew from Ajeng's story.

“Sorry mas, instead I don't want to guarantee ...” Dimas said in a doubtful tone.

“No problem. I think our size is the same,” Bisma insisted, “Mas also want to bring Lala around. If you have to go home, over time.”

Bhishma seeks to find a reasonable reason. What's more, seeing Dimas's wavering attitude that certainly provides an opportunity for him to re-enter his small family environment.

“Alright!” after thinking for a while, Dimas finally decided to comply with Bhishma's wishes.

He returned home to pick up some clothes for Bhishma making Ajeng look at him at a glance.

When out of the room carrying clothes in a paper bag, his steps were blocked Ajeng.

“Ngapain bring clothes? Want to get stuck?” Ajeng could not help but be astonished to see Dimas's haste.

“That, her father Lala wants to borrow a shirt,” Dimas replied frankly.

“Haaa .... “ Ajeng until he was so distrustful of what his sister said.

“Not wide times. Ntar enter laler .... “ Dimas tease Ajeng.

“The hygiene lover wants to wear your clothes? Is the world turned upside down?” Ajeng shook his head in disbelief.

“What did I say?” Dimas smiled mysteriously, “We just wait for the play date.”

“Means?” Ajeng was still lola with Dimas' ambiguous speech.

Dimas quickly left Ajeng, not wanting to be interrogated by his brother for longer. Actually he prefers the real figure of Bhishma - in fact Lala's real father, rather than Ajeng starting a new relationship.

But he just wants to be an observer. He knows what is best for him and Lala's future.

“This mas,” he directly stretched out paper bag, “Everything is new. But it's been washed, just haven't been made .... “

Bisma smiled sumringah because her wish began to come true. He grabbed the paper bag and held Lala with him.

“Where are you going to be this handsome?” ask Bisma for a moment.

“Go with mas Hilman,” Dimas short answer.

“Where?”  Bhishma cannot cover curiosity.

He must know the slightest movement made by his rival in reaching Ajeng's heart. Because he will start his fight again.

“The plan is to complete the contract of buying and selling catfish,” replied Dimas casually.

A mysterious smile rises in the corner of Bhishma's lips. But he tried to hide it from Dimas.

“Oo .... “ Bhishma nodded, “Alright, be careful on the road .... “

“Ya mas, thank you.”

After Dimas died, Bisma immediately brought Lala in a sling. His little daughter had been taking a sweat bath. He will deliver directly to Ajeng. If possible, he will ask permission to take a shower. While diving drink water.

A smile was engraved on his lips considering that some plans had already been well realized. It will start step by step. And if time permits then with a thousand steps he lakoni to achieve his goal.

“Bunda ... “ call Lala stop Ajeng activity cooking in the kitchen.

It flips the body. His eyes immediately rounded to see the presence of Bhishma in his house especially in the kitchen with Lala still in his arms.

“Ade already hustle want to shower,” Bhishma said relax and keep approaching.

Ms. Isma was surprised to see the presence of Bhishma. He could feel the tense atmosphere that occurred between the master and the gallant man who was in front of him.

“Mbak ... “ he calls Ajeng who is glued like a statue.

Ajeng did not expect Bhishma to start daring to come to the house without asking permission from him. He did not know what was on the mind of the man who had become his ex.

“I'm Lala's father, ma'am .... “ Bisma directly introduce themselves without asking Ajeng approval, “Now ade shower first yes, after shower we will take a walk.”

Various questions are present in the mind of Isma. But he did not dare to ask Ajeng, after all it was none of his business. Only she regrets that her employer and the man who claimed to be her father Lala were a very compatible couple.

“Ade shower with mom yes ... “ persuade bu Isma to reach Lala who nodded her head and moved in her cradle.
