"Panji...he knows your status?" asked Satrio softly.
Adis nodded slowly.
"It was precisely my status that became his weapon to suppress me. He seemed to feel like he was a very meritorious person because he wanted to accept me as the widow of this one child as his lover. She thought I should feel deeply indebted to her for her 'goodness' in her heart" Adis said softly like a mutter.
"You love him?" ask Satrio again with a hard heart.
Competing with the deceased so that it can be in the heart of Adis is obviously already heavy, especially if added must remove the sissy from the heart of Adis.
But his life work, right?
"No! I've been trying to accept him all this time. But the more here instead of getting comfortable, the more fed up with his behavior." Adis replied without any hesitation in his voice.
Silently Satrio smiled with relief.
By hearing Adis's answer just now, at least he was increasingly not hesitant to do something so that the jerk guy disappeared from Adis' life for the rest of it.
"So if I do something so he can get out of your life, you don't mind?" tanya Satrio.
Adis looked at Satrio with a worried look.
"I try not to be violent at all" Satrio said as if understanding Adis's concerns.
"The important thing is not to make it difficult for anyone in the future. I just want him to not disturb my life and my family anymore. I want my parents to see who Panji really is. That's more than enough for me" Adis said expectantly.
Satrio nodded in understanding.
Their chatter was interrupted by the presence of the waitress who brought their order.
Satrio stared enthusiastically at the plate Adis thrust at him.
There is rice in print, a piece of cuckoo chicken, cucumber and cabbage vegetables, chili that seems to be three types, chili, also, the broth in a bowl that is more afdol splashed on pieces of chicken before eating even though there are also those who mix chicken treats into the sauce when going to eat it.
"Hmmmm... yummy.." said Satrio jovially with a nose that expands perfectly to be able to catch the smell of savory sego (rice sitting) and gravy in front of him.
His palms rub against each other like weightlifters who want to lift weights only.
"Wash your hands first! There." said Adis when he saw Satrio's hand outstretched about to touch the chicken while pointing at the corner of the wall.
With his face irritated, Satrio headed towards the corner of the wall beside him, where there was a crock and a handwashing faucet.
"You wash your hands, too, Dis. You want to know." said Satrio still standing next to the handwashing.
The sister grimaced in embarrassment as she moved closer to the hand wash.
"Great boy!" satrio said so chew for the first mixture of rice, chicken pieces, cucumber, and onion sauce.
"The cambel is of three kinds. Sambal onion, sambal bean, sambal gepeng. It's delicious all when combined with rice" Adis said as he chewed his crispy tofu.
Satrio proved Adis' speech by trying the three types of sambal alternately.
"It should be two!" said Satrio in the middle of his chew.
"Pesen rice again if you still want to" said Adis solutip.
"No ah. Tomorrow, if we go there in the afternoon. I want to eat double rice" Satrio said as he glanced.
Adis just looked at him unreacted.
"When will the train be here?" tanya Satrio tried to melt the atmosphere again.
"The plan is two months away we can get together again. He wants me to find the SD here. Now if you want to move the stage, the Kindergarten will soon graduate" said Adis while laughing.
"Wouldn't you want seven years of him?" ask Satrio with a surprise.
"New six years. Entering the state SD seems difficult if you use age standards. It must be seven years if you go to SD?" said Adis.
"No country, right? Have you been looking for the school yet?" ask Satrio as if he got the opportunity to become a useful figure for Adis.
"Neighbors and friends have given me some references. There are two schools that I think are good. Still considering which one to choose. I have to think distance too. If the distance pity his son too right?" said Adis who greeted Satrio's nod.
"It's good that Reta was also heard and wanted. He will be the one to run. Parents only have the right to direct, not to decide." suggested Satrio calm down.
Adis nodded in understanding.
Silently Adis began to judge Satrio from a different point of view.
It turns out that if you talk seriously, Satrio's attitude is very contrary to his attitude if again relaxed.
Gini moment seriously Satrio feels very wise and heart-hearted in attitude. It also looks very warm but strong.
Makes her feel calm because she feels loved.
Distinct from his attitude when relaxed. Very annoying, funny and the effect does not care and does not like to open your mouth to revile others.
"Why that smile? Looking at my plus, right? I look very wise and warm, don't you think?" satrio asked while chuckling covetously.
Adis grieves annoyance, more to himself.
Is it that clear, his view is visible to Satrio until this guy can pretend to be arrogant in front of him like that because he feels admired?
Eh, amazed?!
Adis stuffed the crispy tofu piece in her hand into her own mouth with a vexed gesture.
He was annoyed by what had just crossed his mind.
He started to admire Satrio?! Just the real thing, Dis!
Satrio just laughed at him.
He still enjoyed his dinner which he felt was amazing.
Besides because the menu fits on his tongue, of course because of who the figure who accompanied his dinner this time.
"When will Reta come here and eat here, Dis?" pinta Satrio while looking at Adis calmly although Adis can see there is a look of hope in Satrio's eyes.
Adis did not dare to answer because she was in doubt about the current situation.
Especially if you are still dealing with a human named Panji.
Adis sure still have to fight hard to make Panji go from his life to make his life calm.
"We settle the Panji problem slowly. We must pinter-pinter looking for a gap in order to get evidence that can convince your parents that Panji is not worthy to be their ghost" said Satrio after catching the unease in Adis' gaze.
Adis. Suddenly feeling uneasy with his own feelings at this moment.
Why would Satrio come this far in his personal matters in just a few hours?
"Why are you like this?" tanya Adis arrived.
"Huh?" tanya Satrio was confused by Adis' ambiguous question.
"Why did you go so far in my life?" ask Adis later.
Satrio caught a glint of annoyed gazes, but also relief and hope in Adis' eyes.
Touched him.
Satrio.
He also doesn't know why it is this way.
In just a few hours they could both get this close because of Panji's irritation.
Does he have to thank Panji one day when they meet again for making him and Adis enjoy the reality of the moment?
"Because I've been in love since the first touch. On the warm embrace of my body by the tiny hands that encircled my body. Because I had fallen in love and could feel the longing of my chest propped up by the tiny head of the little girl who turned out to be her mama jutek." said Satrio as he stared at the soft Adis with smiling lips with a perfect arch.
"I fell in love with the gaze of the eye that was shaded by the eyebrows like the arch of a seagull's wings. Who was looking for his cat in the park and scolded me the first time I met." continued Satrio again while still smiling looking at Adis who looked down and could not believe what his ears had just heard.
"I want to always take care of you. That's all I have in my head. I don't know what the other reason is if you ask me again" Satrio said.
Adis is getting deeper. No more power to hold back his tears.
He could not believe the beautiful reality he had just heard.
There are people who want to protect her and Reta.
Him and Reta.
They're both.
It's not just him or Reta.
Really this?
Realthis?
Ah Ben, I miss you.
Only you can do that to both of us?
Want and love me and Reta just as much?
Ben, I want you to do that to both of us.
She's not.
Not him, Ben.
And Adis was more touched when he felt the fingertips of his hands touched softly. Very mellow.
Is that him, Ben?
"I only answer what you ask. And I answered according to what I felt. Don't make what I said a burden on you, Dis. I know this is not going to be easy for you. Make me too. But at least you know I can count on you if you two need protection, whenever it is. At least I've been honest with what I feel" Satrio said calmly.
He wants to be a protector to both of us whenever we need him. Really, is that Ben?
Is that how good he is?
"I know you still love Reta's dad. I can feel that. And it feels impossible that I will win if I have to compete with the memories of him" said Satrio smiling resignedly.
I don't know why he suddenly felt defeated before the match.
Depressing.
"The name is Beni" said Adis quietly after successfully calming his own cries.
Satrio stared attentively at Adis.
"Reta's father's name is Beni. She was the first love and the only lover in my heart. I don't know when. We support each other. Both of our parents also approved of our relationship because they saw our courtship never cross the line. Until that day. We committed a great sin. And all our future dreams are shattered by our own hands." The fists shook again to hold back the crying.
"We know we have sinned greatly. I have always asked for forgiveness for our sins, even now. I was always worried, would he still be punished for that sin even though he had repented so much while he was alive?" Adis looked at Satrio with a sad, languishing, and frightened look.
Satrio's heart felt squeezed so hard because he couldn't help anything even if he wanted to.
"He was a good and pleasant friend to all who knew him. A good boy for his family. A very good lover to me. What a great father to Reta. He's good, Mas. Very good." cried Adis now exploded unstoppably again.
Satrio can only be glued.
Adis is spilling her longing on Beni.
The yearning he might have endured alone all these years.
The longing he may have tried to put aside and bury himself in the deep.
My God, how strong has this woman endured her grief and longing alone all this time?
And now in front of Satrio, in the presence of the foreign man in his life, Adis has no power to hide all that.
All the savings of his heart he opened in front of Satrio without rest.
Am I special to him?, asked Satrio with a doubtful look at Adis who was still busy wiping his tears.
