Aina's.
That one name immediately crossed Alvaro's mind. She believes it is true that Nurul was pregnant with her child because the last time she only touched Nurul. In his heart he heard the words of Doctor Paul. But because of the news, he wanted to go home and find his woman.
"You don't be happy just yet. It's not certain because you're like this because you're too tired and don't eat. Is your money running out so you can't buy food? Is studying so exhausting like this?"
Genta's circus speech immediately broke the beautiful daydream of Alvaro who was imagining himself having children with Nurul and their families living happily together with their small families. Very happy even in the shadows.
Alvaro did not heed his papyri's questions. He was more focused on Nurul. Genta who saw it actually returned to daydream immediately snapped at him.
"Alvaro Genta Prayoga!"
Yani was surprised to hear her husband's shrill voice. Same with Alvaro. He forgets that his papi really doesn't like to be ignored. While putting on a guilty face Alvaro looked at his papi. Makes Genta squeak.
"I'm not short of money. If you want to know why I can eat less because I do not taste and why I am tired because my heart and mind are tired of thinking about my woman who is out of nowhere. I miss him so much and so wish I could get an apology from him and open a new chapter in our lives. That's why Pi. That's it."
Alvaro complained of frustration. He always said this but why did his papi never seem to hear his complaints.
As for Genta, he only put on a flat look. He actually knew, only that he did not want all this to ruin his son's life. The woman left on her own will. He did not condone Alvaro's actions or disliked Nurul, only that his son had tried to find responsibility but the woman who chose to leave without leaving any message.
His son was already trying to make amends even to the point of being sick like this. His life was filled with a fog of regret. Chaotic and no spirit of life. This isn't his son. He would rather have a rancid Alvaro who likes to go on a bed adventure or prank women than be a frustrated and uninspired man in life. This is not the child he knows.
Alvaro was wrong because he destroyed his life. But he's responsible. He does not run away from his problems and even until this second Genta knows that Alvaro told people to look for Nurul. But it was the woman that Alvaro didn't want to find. It's not their fault they start not caring. If only the woman cared about herself and her future, she would definitely give Alvaro some news. Not to go and hide.
Genta will stand in the front row if one day someone comes to demand on behalf of the woman. Why sue him, not yesterday or now before it's too late. He also swore in his heart that if the woman was indeed pregnant with Alvaro's child then in any way he would plunder her.
"If you want to meet him then finish your business here and live well. Papi will look for him. But if until this year he is not found then papi ask to forget. Papi doesn't want you to live in regret. You were wrong but that woman was more wrong to leave without demanding anything. You've tried and we're both trying. If he wants to be with you, he will come. But if he doesn't come, you know why."
Alvaro was about to argue but Yani chimed in on her husband's remarks.
"Your father's right. You think carefully about what your papa said. He chose to leave, not you who asked. You want to take responsibility, but he ran away, right? So, live as you normally would, son. Mami beg Alvaro not to be like this. If you are paired then there will be a beautiful way later that has been arranged by the Regulator to bring you together later. Believe it."
Alvaro was speechless, he digested the words of his parents and recalled the mess in him that he had done himself to punish his behavior. He had missed many things because he was busy punishing himself in regret.
But, considering her guilty self of her love and late realizing that's what her spirit plugs into. He did not stop blaming himself for what he did to the woman he loved. Not to mention the longing that kept gnawing at his soul. There was no time without thinking about Nurul.
"It's time you got up. Trust me, someone has already arranged. If you promise to finish your studies here well then papi also promises to find your women even to the North Pole will be looking for you," said Genta encouragingly to Alvaro.
Alvaro stared at his papi intensely, seeking the truth and earnestness of his words just now.
"The fire meant it if you want to know," continued Genta who saw Alvaro's incredulous look.
"Deal!"
Genta and Yani smile in relief, they are happy that Alvaro finally agrees. This is their real son. In the hearts of Genta and Yani pray that during this time Alvaro can forget the shadows of Nurul and can find a new love.
Not that he would not look for the woman, but he would rather have his son with another woman who really wanted him. Nurul's departure without a message and without telling anything it made Genta offended. He felt that Nurul did not want his son. Here Genta thinks Nurul dumped Alvaro, not the other way around.
If anyone wants to judge Genta's thinking, he doesn't care because it's enough for him to try. He is principled if he tried and what he tried was willing to fight together, then there will be no word surrender. But if he tried desperately but his goal was to refuse to fight together, then leaving him was a must.

"What's? Don't you joke with me, son?" pekik Bu Uswa so Nurul told the truth.
Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight, after a month Nurul worked with the family Emrick, he came and brought news if he was pregnant.
Nurul had decided to stay apart because of his anxiety about the stigma of society. He was given a place to stay in the boutique owned by Bu Dianti which does have a room for rest and also has a full kitchen. Nurul does not need to pay rent and live comfortably there.
"Why are you saying it now?" lirih Bu Uswa's. It turned out to be wrong, the assumption was wrong and the man had indeed left his seed in Nurul's womb.
"Nurul doesn't want to make mom sad. But by continuing to cover it will make the mother more sad and disappointed. Nurul's sorry, Mom. Although this apology is meaningless, Nurul still asked for it. Forgive your son for letting you down by not being able to take care of himself, hikss ...."
Bu Uswa grabbed Nurul into his arms. His hand felt Nurul's stomach that had stood out. He estimates he has entered four months. He remembered the man who sought Nurul to Dessy's house. Bu Uswa must contact her and hold her accountable before Nurul gives birth without a husband.
He wants to fix his mistakes and he wants to make up for them. He was wrong to ask everyone to hide their place. If only she was not selfish then Nurul would have been married by this time and her husband would have been responsible with the baby in Nurul's womb.
Armed with confidence because the man had been looking for Nurul to Dessy's place, he contacted Dessy to ask her to find the man who had impregnated Nurul. He was sure the man would be responsible.
"What's wrong, ma'am?" nurul asked as soon as she realized that Bu Uswa was daydreaming.
"No, I'm just thinking about your situation. Aren't you having cravings or nausea?" kilah Bu Uswa's.
Nurul smiled and proudly said, "My son is very good. He's not fussy and he never makes me hard" he said.
Bu Uswa smiled with relief. He thought Nurul had been having trouble all this time. "Then stay with your mother. I can take care of you and take good care of you" she asked.
Nurul immediately shook his head, "Nurul can't, ma'am. Nurul does not want to be a burden and a source of problems. Leave it like this first. If we were born again, we would live here. Nurul promise. You can visit when the time is free," he said subtly.
Despite the objections, in fact Bu Uswa could not refuse. He knew exactly what Nurul meant. He only prayed that Nurul and her baby would remain in the protection of the Almighty.
The two finally talked about Nurul's pregnancy and about her work. He also asked about Danish and Nurul only answered normally because it was between him and Danish there was no relationship. Moreover, Danish knows if she is currently pregnant, where maybe the man will glance at her. Nurul is self-conscious.
They had been so good with accepting pregnant women without husbands working with them it was a thanksgiving for Nurul. He does not want to dream and dream.
Enough already!
Bu Uswa felt calm because Nurul could control himself and introspective. He was also grateful that Nurul did not look gloomy at the moment and his face was always radiant.
Later that night I'll call Dessy and ask her to give me Nurul's number. It is time to meet and start a new life.
