The event at Aira's house went smoothly, although it did bring up a lot of questions in Aira and Riani's head as well.
Time goes by quickly. Tomorrow Addrian will go home because his work there is finished just work that later Addrian can supervise from his office.
"Addrian, don't you want to shop? Maybe you want to buy something for your wife at home?"
"You want to go shopping? If you want to shop, you can go. Aira says if she doesn't want to buy anything, she just wants me to go home, I miss her and my baby a lot too."
"It's fun if someone misses you at home. I'm so lazy to go home to live in a place where no one knows me."
"You're wrong, living in the warmth of a family is better than living alone because loneliness is bad. I've felt it myself."
"But if having a family like me is also unpleasant, Addrian, there is only suffering that I feel."
Addrian just smiled a little. "Build your own little family, and your life will be happy."
The image seemed to look at Addrian closely. "I really want to build a family with the person I love so much, and I also want to be like Aira to be able to get pregnant and be loved by the father of my baby."
"You're a good woman, and you'll definitely get a good thing. Then finish our breakfast, and then we'll go shopping because I remember here there's an antique shop I used to go to. Hope what I want to buy there is still there."
"Antique shop? What do you want to buy?"
"There was. Finish your food and we'll go there soon."
After finishing breakfast they go to a place by driving a car prepared by the hotel where they stay.
In the car they sat separately because Addrian chose to sit in front until the driver and Citra in the back. A few minutes they arrived at a store that was not too big, even almost like a simple house.
Addrian goes down and goes inside followed by Citra. Inside the atmosphere was not so comfortable for Citra, she was a bit scared to the point of holding her arm Addrian.
"Addrian, this place why is it so scary?"
Addrian let go of Citra's handrails slowly and grasped Citra's hand to convince her that she didn't need to be afraid because this place wasn't scary.
"Grandma, are you home?" call Addrian, but Addrian's call gets no reply.
"Addrian, where do you know a place like this?"
"When a few years ago, I had a friendly basketball game here, and after no activity, my friends and I went for a walk and found this unique place."
"What ethnicity? It's creepy." The image circulated his gaze looking around. "What do you really want to find in this place? Just look at the things here are so insignificant and obsolete."
"There's something here that I wanted to buy back then, but it's not because I don't have a wife yet and Grandma doesn't want to sell it to me and that makes me happy to buy things here because of what I bought, later the money will be given to special hospitals for children with cancer. Who knows you'd like to buy something here."
"Nothing I want to buy here. The objects are so scary all." Addrian just smiled hearing what Citra said.
"Grandma, do you still know me?" Addrian tried to approach the old woman who was about 8 heads or if not 9.
The old woman allowed her glasses to look at Addrian's face. "You're Uno?"
"Well! Grandma still remembers me? I'm Uno and now I've come here to ask, are those beautiful Grandma rings still there because I want to buy them?"
The woman with her white glasses looked towards Citra. "Are you married? Is she your wife?"
The image that heard the grandmother question seemed to be smiling happily. "I am married, but this is not my wife" said Addrian.
"Thank God, then" replied the old grandmother.
The grandmother seemed to know that Citra was not worthy to be the wife of Addrian. This mental image.
Citra's happy face because it was thought Addrian's wife suddenly turned upset to hear what the old woman said.
"What does Grandma mean?" ask Citra with a face still upset.
"Uno, I'll get you the ring. Grandma didn't sell the ring on purpose because I already knew you'd come back to buy it."
The woman ignored what Citra asked, she went inside again.
Addrian tries to explain to Citra not to be upset with Grandma because she is old and her hearing is not good. Addrian also explained that Grandma was originally an Indonesian who married a Singaporean and lived here for a long time until her husband died.
Not long after the old woman returned with a black wooden box. Grandma opened the box and exposed two pairs of rings with palladium material. The white colored ring was extremely beautiful with there being some small diamond stones embedded within it.
"This ring can not be sold in any jewelry store because there is rarely anyone who accepts, although the price is very expensive, but my husband ordered to sell it himself to a married person and love his wife very much, like Grandma's late husband who loved grandma dearly, but grandma would give her sales money to the children who were struggling to stay alive."
"Why did you know that from the first time I saw this ring, I was very interested, but Grandma didn't want to give it to me because I wasn't married, right? And now I want to buy it for me to give it to the woman I love so much."
"Take it." The woman gave the ring to Addrian.
"Well! It's beautiful, Addrian." The image took one and wanted to try on his ring finger.
"Don't!" The old woman quickly took it from Citra's hands before Citra wore it. "This ring should only be worn for a married woman who is well loved by her husband." Grandma gave the ring to Addrian. "You take it and later if you go home give it to your wife and say my warm greetings to her."
"Yes, Grandma. So, how much do I have to pay for it, Grandma? Image, is there anything you want to buy?"
"Nothing, I'm just gonna go shopping at the big store down the street. Addrian I'll wait for you in the car. Excuse me Grandma." The image walked out of the house and of course with a feeling of annoyance.
"
