In a still-bright room in the middle of the night. With a blanket that covers his body to the head. A man who was no longer young was holding back laughter looking at what was in his hands. Who else if not Juan?
He was looking at the photos in Syifa's gallery. There was nothing he missed at all. The photo and video he turned, until his eyes were now fixed on a photo with two women who were taking selfies. The two were smiling together against the background of a mountain view.
Juan now smiled. He stroked the hp screen in his hand. It's so shiny. Loving people and his mother does not approve of him and Yumna, just because Yumna was married.
Juan has now chosen to stop his activities, it feels sorry to have also opened this phone and see the contents of the gallery there. Somehow he was too kepo, even though all this time he could be indifferent to whatever was around him.
Juan kept that phone on the nightstand. He decided to just lie down.
The clock had shown almost midnight, but Juan's eyes could not be closed at all. The shadow he had just kissed Syifa was still imprinted in his memory.
Juan now tilted his body, trying to find a comfortable position for him to sleep in, but he still could not close his eyes as well.
"Geez!" the sound of getting up to sit down. He patted his head a little hard for the shadow to move away or even disappear.
"Why am I still thinking about him? Why did I have to kiss her?" Juan recalled that again, without him realizing he was holding his lips.
"Ah, fuck!"
Now Juan got up from his bed and went downstairs.
The kitchen had darkened because the assistant had already turned off the lights there. Juan took a canned drink that he really liked, a beer with a very light alcohol content, widely sold in supermarkets and minimarkets. With heavy steps, he returned to his room.
"Juan!" exclaims Susi from under the stairs. Juan, who felt called by his mother, stopped his footsteps in the middle of the stairs.
"Hem?" juan murmured, the drink he had just drunk.
"Where were you?" ask Lusi.
"Just look for the wind" replied Juan annoyed.
"Is that really all?" tanya Susi was suspicious.
"Why indeed? I just drove the woman home, Mama satisfied?!" Juan replied with annoyance. She felt that she was too suspicious and liked to organize.
"Who?" lusi asked in surprise, although he got the info from a friend who saw Juan in the cafe, but he did not know who Juan was with.
"No need to know, the important thing is that he's not married, is that what Mama wants?" answer Juan cuek. He chose to continue his footsteps upstairs.
"Who, Juan?!" exclaim Susi curious.
Juan did not answer. He simply waved his hand into the air and then went inside his room.
The air that was on his nose he exhaled violently. The canned drink in his hand he sank until it ran out. This drink is no longer able to enjoy it until in a few seconds it has come down to the stomach.
It feels really upset. He wants to be free again if Lusi keeps setting it up. Maybe going back to his old life will feel good again. Juan could only ask papa for help to persuade mama.
"Can you talk to Mama?" juan asked Darma. Darma simply muttered without taking his gaze away from the work that was in front of him.
"What about?" ask Darma.
"Papa already knows, do not pretend not to know," said Juan with annoyance.
Darma sighed and stopped his activities. He kept the pen on the paper he just signed.
"You know how your mom is. He if he has spoken does not want to be denied," said Darma.
"Papa is the head of the family, shouldn't he be able to talk to Mama? Why is Papa so scared of his wife?" upset Juan.
Darma grieves not liking what her son says. "Not afraid, but Papa is too dear to the Wife. You must be able to distinguish fear and affection, Juan!" remember the father.
Juan was upset.
"It makes no difference! I want Papa to tell Mama, don't interfere in my business. I just want to be happy I know Yumna is good, not what Mama thought. Why would you judge a married person to be a bad thing?" juan said with annoyance.
Darma sighed once more.
"Listen Juan. You've been heartbroken by your past story, now your mom doesn't want it to happen again" said Darma.
Juan turned his gaze the other way. "Remember what happened to your boyfriend first?" ask Darma to Juan.
"Your mom has a bad feeling, and it's proven, right?" ask Darma again.
"And Papa also interfered with my relationship first" Juan said still upset.
"Papa just wants to keep Papa's heart, and what does he do? If he really likes and loves you, shouldn't he be loyal? He just wants to use you, and he and his mistress want to destroy you, Juan. Then what's wrong if Papa destroys them?" Juan now looked down at his father's words.
"For Mama, Yumna is a married woman, it means she can't keep her marriage. Either the blame may be on her ex-husband or on Yumna's sendri. Your mom doesn't want that to happen to you. Yes, besides because our names will be looked down upon by the big family, of course." Bright Darma.
That is what Juan heard. He didn't want to hear the father's talk that would probably be long. His arrival here wanted to ask for help, but instead he was lectured.
"So Papa has the same thoughts as Mama?" juan asked in disbelief. Darma just shook his head.
"Not really, if he is the best for you you should be able to prove to Mama that Yumna is not that bad," said Darma.
Juan breathed his breath violently. Proving the thing that Mama said was wrong, was a bit difficult for her, but she had to prove to Mama that Yumna was not a bad person.
I have to meet Yumna! Juan said in his heart.
Darma stared into the depths of the potra's eyes, there was earnestness in there.
