A talaq! After Akad
The Awkward Atmosphere


''Alvin! boy!!'' shouted a middle-aged woman who still looked beautiful who was currently waving towards him, calling Alvin. And unexpectedly, Alvin grabbed Delisa's hand and took her to the middle-aged woman.


''Mrs...'' Alvin called her Mama, which of course made Delisa jerked, because of shock.


Delisa wanted to immediately release Alvin's hand, but Alvin just tightened his grip while hugging the middle-aged woman.


Everyone's gaze meant that he looked at Delisa as if intimidating presence and who Delisa was so that Alvin took her by holding her hand.


Alvin smiled for a moment realizing the gaze of many questions from the mother. And unexpectedly, Alvin let go of Delisa's hand, but instead of letting go so, he grabbed Delisa's slender waist and glued their distance.


''He's Delisa, Mam, '' said Alvin introduced Delisa to the woman he called Mama.


Alisha's facial features, the name of the middle-aged woman, looked flat, but a moment later she smiled with her hands gently rubbing Delisa's cheeks.


''You are so beautiful, son.


''Thank you—''


''Mama,'' sambar Alisha who wants Delisa to call him the same as Alvin is Mama.


Delisa smiled awkwardly, she herself was confused why Alvin invited her there, and why he also had to call Alvin's mother, Mama.


No, he did not acknowledge Alvin's mother, he was silent with a confused look. Alvin who realized it then whispered something to Delisa.


''Help me for a while, '' whispered that made Delisa even more confused.


How not, without saying anything, Alvin invited him to meet his mother, introduced himself then suddenly whispered kelinga to help him.


Alvin leads Delisa to sit down to join the others, as does Alisha Mama from Alvin.


Several types of dishes are available on round tables. Delisa looked around and a glass of juice was given suddenly by Alisha so kindly.


''Please darling, you juice only, you must not drink anything else, hmm?'' said Alisha and Delisa also immediately received orange juice from Alisha's hand and glanced at all the people who were holding a glass containing red water. What is known is that colored water is an alcoholic drink.


Everyone raised their glasses then exclaimed, Repeat!!''


Awfully, Delisa followed what they were doing. Really he was the first time to do that, which he knew the word 'toast' was only in the drama scene that he had ever watched.


Alvin glanced at the sweet face of Delisa who was smiling silently as if thinking of something. Alvin smiled too.


Although during meal time Delisa felt awkward, she remained polite and maintained ethics as a woman. Until one day everyone said goodbye and left three people at the round table there. Delisa, Alvin and Alisha, Alvin's mother.


The atmosphere that was originally awkward, increasingly felt awkward. Alisha who was being warm instantly turned cold. The middle-aged woman's eyes felt sharp to Delisa. Even Delisa's hands were already sweating and trembling, due to her nervousness.


''So this, Al?'' ask Alisha to her child.


''He'um..'' replied Alvin who was just wheezing.


The look in Alisha's eyes grew sharper, her eyes staring from head to toe Delisa, without knowing who was being stared at was nervous until her chest continued to pound so strongly.


''Why should Alvin?'' alisha asks Delisa who doesn't even know what to answer.


''Mom?!'' Alvin interrupts, but Alisha slaps Alvin's hand so that his son doesn't talk.


''I asked, why Alvin? is there no other man?'' Delisa flinched, her eyes fixed on Alvin, as if asking for help to prepare her answer. However, instead of getting a hint, Alvin instead gave a faint head bobble, also putting on his innocent face.


''Want it? not like it?''


Delisa gets more agitated, she really does not understand what to answer, because this is the charade that Alvin meant to her, yes Alvin asked her for help for this is not it? delisa also muttered.


Delisa again glanced at Alvin, but back Alvin did not intend to help him back, he just gave a signal that Delisa answered the question Alisha, Alvin's mother.


''I–iya Tan, I want Alvin because I– likes him.''


Really am! Delisa felt guilty for lying to a mother. He was forced to do so with a feeling that he himself was confused as to why he should do that and agreed with Alvin.


''Just liked it? not love her?''


Jeez, Delisa's getting flabbergasted, she's confused and restless. What should he lie so deeply to a middle-aged woman who is currently worrying about her child.


For a moment, Delisa sighed and then intended to answer. However, the sudden noise of the cell phone made him pause his speech.


''Sorry Tan, just a minute. Excuse me for answering the phone first.''


Alisha gave her permission, and Delisa moved away to pick up the call.


There, unbeknownst to anyone, Alvin has kept his smile hidden. But the smile was instantly gone when the answer that almost came out of Delisa's mouth was paused by the phone call.


''Mam a minute!'' Alvin wanted to catch up with Delisa out of curiosity.


He was looking for the whereabouts of Delisa who was somewhere. And suddenly his eyes caught a woman who was talking to a handsome man who was also dashing.


Alvin stepped slowly, and from a distance of several meters from where he could hear the conversation of the two of them.


''Why are you here?'' delisa asked the man.


''I ran into my old friend, and then I saw someone who looked like you, and to make sure I called you, who was you!'' the answer is long.


Delisa chuckled as she said, ''Is my face too market huh brother Vikar?'' he said with a crisp laugh from Delisa.


Yes the man is Vikar, a friend of Fauzan.


''Ahhhhh, that's not it! ah already. Oh yeah, you're going home? then let me go home with me!'' The vicar had already grabbed Delisa's hand to take her away but unexpectedly, Alvin held Delisa's right hand.


And now Delisa's position is like a rope that is being held on both sides by two different people. The vicar turned his head quickly because he felt Delisa's steps like someone was holding her back and it turned out to be true.


The vicar stared intently at Alvin, as did Alvin. And Delisa? he could only stare at the two men in turn at the confusion of what was currently happening to him and at them in such an awkward situation.


''Can come with me, go home with me!'' Alvin's.


''But he wants to come home with me!'' reply Vikar does not want to lose.


''Why not ask Delisa first!''


Vikar memicing, feeling dislike of what was said by Alvin then reply with a question for Alvino.


''You're who Delisa is, huh?!''


Alvin who got the question certainly did not panic, he smiled. ''You can ask Delisa who I am for her!''
