Wife Titipan

Chapter 32

Just like what Najma thought yesterday. Pram must have come to his parents' house to pick him up. But Najma resolutely refused, unwilling to put her son in danger if he had to return to live with Pram.

"Go home by yourself. I don't want to go with you. You better take care of your mom and that crazy woman. Didn't you want to marry her first you should now marry her and forget me!" Najma says sharply.

"No. I'm not leaving until you come with me." The man still insisted on keeping the woman he loved. Najma seems to be running out of sense to get Pram to leave her parents' house.

There was a reason why Pram had only come after three days when Najma left home. Pram realizes the situation is now very sensitive. What else here Najma's parents are so supportive of their separation. Wrong for a little bit, maybe he and Najma will be separated for good.

"For what? I don't want to continue this relationship anymore. Everything is a mess, we better end it before it all ends in regret that is very far away" said Najma. Pram looks frustrated.

"I don't want to end this relationship. You know for yourself I can't live without you. I love you Najma. Please come back to me." Najma looks to throw away her face.

He refused to look at the face of Pram who was pleading with him. Najma was afraid that if he looked into the man's eyes he would fall. No matter how much pain the man had given him, in the deepest corner of his heart Najma still held a taste for the man. Although he tried to remove it, but everything felt so difficult.

What more if the good memories of the past that had happened between them came to him. Before he felt the pain he felt today. He was happy with Pram, the man always made him smile.

"I can't go back to you as long as you're in touch with your stepmother. If you can't live without me, you'd rather just die!" Najma's words sounded so cruel in Pram's ears, she told him to die.

"You don't love me anymore?" Pram asked, the man's breath hunting. His eyes stared intently at the woman he loved, while Najma herself was still trying to hold on so that she would not falter.

"You can think for yourself" said Najma ambiguously. But still managed to make Pram's heart broken, slowly his heart began to scream that he should just give up.

But his ego shouted back that he had to defend the woman he loved, in a state of worry like this what Pram should do. Whether he should obey what his little heart whispers, or if he should obey his more domineering ego.

Six months was a very short time for Najma, but a long time for Bayu. For six months Bayu always went back and forth to Jakarta every two weeks to meet his son.

Akela grows up to be an even funnier baby. Risma who had initially rejected Akela's presence slowly began to accept the child. Even now he loves her very much, today Akela even six months old.

And Najma must keep her promise to Bayu. Visit to Bayu's hometown meet and the old man. Surely he was not ready to meet them, he still did not find the right words to answer every question Bayu parents later.

After bidding farewell to Najma's parents, they finally set off with a private driver from Najma's family. The two human children chose not to talk to each other.

Najma lets Akela be guarded by Bayu. While he chose to sleep. Looks like they are still a long time ago arrived at the destination, Akela's cute face makes Bayu always miss him.

What's more Akela has now started to chatter and laugh if invited to joke. If only they could be together forever.

*****

Bayu awakens Najma when they reach their destination. Najma's face was confused when Bayu woke her up.

"We have arrived" said Bayu, as if he understood Najma's gaze.

"Let me be the fat one." Bayu held off Najma who wanted to take Akela, the tiny baby is now sleeping peacefully. Taking a trip far enough lucky Akela is not fussy if you can not dizziness Bayu's head.

Bayu asks the driver to take them with him to bring Najma's belongings into his house. Najma, who is still sleepy, staggered because of excessive anxiety last night, he was unable to sleep all night.

"My family is not home right now, they are going to the next village to attend a family event," said Bayu, the man immediately took Najma to his room. He lays Akela down first, a cute baby who makes you anxious.

"Rest, sorry the room is cramped." Najma just nodded, without a second thought he immediately lay on the bed to resume his sleep.

Bayu opened the window so that fresh air could enter, he also turned on the fan so that they did not overheat. Bayu suddenly remembered the sacred goods belonging to Najma that he stole, god he had to hide the object, could be extinct if it was discovered by Najma.

*****

Najma's sleep is disturbed by her son's crying, she thinks Akela is hungry so Najma breastfeeds her baby. But apparently Akela did not want to suckle, she still cried. Najma glanced at Bayu who is now playing gadgets.

"Wood can you replace Akela's diaper? i'm sleepy. All of you persuaded him to stop crying." Bayu sighed, without protest he did what Najma asked. After all if not now when else could he take care of Akela.

"How about we watch a cartoon, Akela likes a cartoon right? Papa also likes cartoons," said Bayu, he invites Akela out of the room leaving Najma who is still late in his dream world.

Judah and Gilang decided to go home first, they frowned seeing the door open. Both of them compactly think that at this time Bayu has gone home, for what reason Bayu often go back and forth to Jakarta they do not know.

"We have a child's voice" Gilang said as he entered the house. Judah pressed his shoulders.

"Whose son is Bayu?" Tanya Gilang, when she saw Bayu playing with a small child. As far as Bayu does not like small children, Bayu once said the reason. Said Bayu the little boy, chatty, whiny, and spoiled.

"Son Brother," said Bayu casually. Yuda sneered.

"Since when have you been a hau man? the wife just doesn't have any support for me to have children" Yuda said, trying to remember when their neighbors didn't have babies. Then whose son is now with Bayu. Well lest Bayu be the kidnapper again, the inner Judah.

"It's up to you not to believe. Akela you're Papakan Nak's son. You're funny, here you are Papa kisses." Bayu anxiously kissed the cheeks of the gembill Akela, the beautiful-faced baby laughing comically.

"Where's the kid's mom?" Asks Yuda astonished by Bayu's change, his twin brother looks like a father who loves his son so much.

"There's in the room" said Bayu.

Yuda immediately went to Bayu's room, he wanted to confirm the truth of his twin brother's words. When entering the room Bayu. Yuda was stunned to see a woman who had just woken up from her sleep. The woman turned her head and smiled towards him, her smile being so sweet that Yuda was blown away.

"Wood, where's Akela?" Najma did not realize that the person standing in front of her was not Bayu.

"Wood if asked, answer. Where's akela? Has your family gone home?" After the woman spoke in a rather high voice, Judah came to a realization.

"I'm not Bayu." Najma flinched, the voice of the man who spoke to her sounded different from that of the usual Bayu. 

In other places Bayu as if just realized, oh my goodness. Is Yuda currently in his room? Yuda the playboy must be currently in a cry to see a beautiful woman.

"Say, you take care of the baby for a little while. Brother wants to go to the room first," said Bayu, who was immediately agreed by Gilang. He is very happy with the presence of Akela, what else he really likes with babies.

Najma is now astonished to see the sighting in front of him, Bayu there are two. "Who is the real Bayu?" Najma asked, her facial expression now was like a daze.

"Me" said Bayu. Najma looked towards the man.

"Wood you got a twin?"

"Yes, she's Yuda my twin sister" Bayu said. Najma was frustrated. He had known Bayu for three years, but he never told him he had a twin brother. Jeez, where they are identical twins again Najma until fooled made.

*****

Najma is nervous half to death when dealing with parents Bayu, especially Wardi Father Bayu looking at him sharply. But when he looked at Ningsih's face. Najma seemed familiar with the motherly face. Najma thinks he knew that woman. Najma searches for her past files about a middle-aged woman who seems familiar to her eyes.

“I'm sorry. At that time I was just following my ex-husband's will. I did not mean to trap Bayu in the complicated relationship between me and the man,” Najma said, his head lowered deeply.

“Then how are you and Bayu related? You have kids.” Wardi's voice was so heavy, if only Wardi snapped it maybe Najma would faint.

“If Najma wants, I want this marriage to continue,” Bayu said. Ningsih stroked the chest seeing Bayu so adoring the woman he married. It's natural to happen. Najma is very beautiful, which man is unattractive.

“How about you?” Ningsih asked Najma who kept her head down.

“Cannot. Other than our age difference being too far away. I think I still love my ex-husband so much.” Najma said honestly, no matter how hard he tried and kept trying to forget Pram whose heart was constantly screaming saying that Pram was only the owner of his heart and love.

“Listen to it Bayu. He doesn't love you, don't expect too much. Remember the message Mr!” wardi said with great emphasis. Bayu's face is getting sad.

Actually Bayu hopes his parents support his marriage with Najma continues. But his parents seem to not care, they still want Bayu back with his ex-lover.
