“Assalamualaikum.” Said a middle-aged woman named Neneng, entering Hendra's house.
He saw Hendra sitting pensively holding his head on the dining table, He was the one who helped clean Hendra's house and worked part-time there.
“Pak, I just saw the car out of here. earlier it was Non Angel?” Neneng asked Hendra who was still silent.
Hendra nodded.
“Neng, if you're done cleaning up. Door in lock only from outside, I want to break.” Said Hendra and passed leaving Neneng who was still sculpting.
“Mr, want me to prepare food?” Ask Neneng again.
Hendra shakes. “I'm not having a taste for food.” Her speech.
Then, Hendra passed from before Neneng.
“Eta the Father, why? It seems to negate the ferocity of pisan.” Murmured Neneng, who had never seen the look of the sour face of Hendra like now.
While on the road, Malik and Angel return to Jakarta. They're going to Adrian's house.
“Bee. Calm down.” Malik continues to calm Angel who has been in constant tears ever since she left her father's house.
“I see the look on dad's disappointed face. I'm a kid who doesn't know myself, brother. I can only humiliate the parents.” Angel was crying.
“Bee. You're a good boy, you've been devoted to him all this time.” Malik pulled his car over, because they happened to have not entered the freeway.
He grabbed Angel's head and hugged her. “Dad only takes time. Believe that! He loves you very much and gradually he will forgive us.”
“What is it?” Ask Angel who never did anything wrong to her father.
Malik nodded. “I often let my dad down at school. At first he was angry, but the next day he forgave. Such a parent, will always forgive no matter how great the mistake of his child.”
Angel looked up and looked at Malik. This guy really always made her comfortable. He also smiled.
“Well, that's dong. I miss your smile.”
“Gombal.” Said Angel in a spoiled tone, pulling her body from Malik's embrace and wiping away the remaining tears on her face.
He sat perfectly back in the passenger seat and Malik started to run his car. This time, Malik drove his car at a moderate speed. They also began to enter the barrier-free streets to quickly get to Jakarta.
“Bee. We'll stop by to eat first. From this morning you haven't eaten. I don't want you to be sick.”
Angel nodded.
Then, Malik stopped his car in the rest area available in a few kilometers on the freeway.
“We stop here first yes, Bee. So you're calmer.” Malik said while circulating his gaze to find a parking lot close to some of the available places to eat.
“What do you want to eat?” Ask Malik, when he stopped his car.
“What's up. I'm no longer appetite. I'm still thinking father.” Answer Angel lazily.
“But you have to eat, you've had thyfus twice, Bee. What is important is that we are working to make this relationship better. I swear I want to marry you, Bee. Especially last night I spilled a lot of seeds here.” Malik said softly, while rubbing Angel's stomach.
Angel looked down at his stomach. She realized what Malik had done to her that night. The red mark on Angel's neck is still clearly visible and numerous. That made Hendra ask that question.
“What once can get pregnant directly?” Ask Angel plain.
Malik smiled and nodded. “Maybe. Could be, could not. But I don't want to speculate. Want you pregnant or not, we have to get married soon.”
Angel looked at Malik's face, as well as Malik, he stroked his hair again. Then, they get out of the car together and look for where Angel wants to eat.
****
“Come, Bee. Eat up! Do I want a bribe. Aaaa.” Malik gathered his food in hand and thrust it into Angel's mouth.
Angel opened his mouth. He ate grilled chicken with sambal ijo.
“Udah, sis. I eat by myself. If you keep bribing me, you're not eating.” Angel smiled, taking the third mouthful from Malik's hand.
Malik returned that smile. “Oke.”
Malik tried to make Angel smile. When eating, there was just Malik's fad by making funny comments on what he saw.
Angel picked up the crackers that the cans had available on that table.
“Bee..the crackers are closed again. Pity if later hit by the wind, can catch a cold, keep asking in kerokin. It's not funny to ask for it in kerokin.”
Angel laughed. “Jayus you, Brother.”
“Biarin.”
Angel shook her head while smiling.
Then, they went back on their way, after filling the gasoline on his stomach and on the engine of Malik's car.
Malik re-entered the car, after paying the SPBU officer.
“You ready?” Malik asked, holding Angel's hand beside him, before he started the engine.
Angel took a rough breath and nodded. “Siap.”
Then Malik started the engine of his car. They walked back to Adrian's house.
****
Three hours and twenty minutes, they arrived right in front of Adrian's house. Alika and Fariz who were playing on the terrace immediately approached the sound of the roar of a car parked in his yard. They see Angel getting out of the car along with her uncle.
“Yeah. Mother home.” Cheers Fariz who immediately ran towards Angel, followed by Alika.
“Sayang.” Angel smiled and spread out her arms to hug Alika and Fariz.
“Om ga in hug too?” Ask Malik who was next to Angel and spread out his hands.
“Angel.” Suddenly Adrian ran and hugged his wife.
“I'm sorry, Ngel. I'm sorry I put my business first last night. I went to your college to pick you up, but the seller said.” Adrian's words were cut off when he realized there was Malik beside Angel.
“Kok Om, can you come here with Mommy?” Ask Alika.
“Om who picked up Mother from her friend's house huh?” Ask Fariz.
Angel glanced at Malik, and vice versa. They are confused as to what is with these two krucils.
“Hmm.. ngga, just happened to meet Mommy on the road.” Malik replied doubtfully.
“Oh.” Alika and Fariz nodded.
“Mother, Papa from earlier waiting for Mother to come home.” Celtuk Fariz.
Adrian looked at Malik from head to toe. He likened the characteristics of the man mentioned by the clontong seller to Malik.
“You picked up Angel that night?” Ask Adrian.
Malik breathed in rough.
“Bi, take the kids inside.” Shouted Adrian to the Aunt.
The Aunt who just wanted to say hello to Angel because she was happy to see the return of her female employer was jolted and immediately brought Adrian's two children into the house.
“So all this time, you like your sister-in-law the same? Hah.” Adrian stepped forward to approach Malik.
Malik's hands were clenched. He had mounted the horses, and if Adrian had hit him, he would have dealt the blow.
“Mas, listen to my explanation.” Angel interrupts between the bodies of Malik and Adrian who stand each other firmly with the same chest field, the same height and want to be bent.
“Please listen to me first.” Said Angel again.
Malik and Adrian Kink are a little bit further away.
“Mas, sorry it looks like our wedding can't go on.” Said Angel.
Adrian scrunched his forehead. “What do you mean? Why suddenly?”
“It's not sudden, Mas. It's been two years, I'm damned because of dad, because of Alika and Fariz. But now I want to determine my own happiness. We got married because we were married. You still love the late mother Alya and you realize you've been ignoring me.”
Adrian immediately hugged Angel's body. “Now no more, I love you Angel. Sorry, I didn't realize this feeling. Sorry.”
“Least.” Malik pulls Adrian's body and takes off his embrace of Angel.
“She's my girlfriend, Bang. Angel was my girlfriend before being betrothed by her father. Now he asks you, to divorce him.”
Adrian shaking. “Say that's not true, Angel. That's not true, is it?”
Angel nodded. “It's true. And last night I spent the night in the apartment with him.”
Jedars
It was as if lightning had struck Adrian's body. He was angry and hit Malik.
Bugh.
Malik who was not ready, finally hit hard until the corner of his lips bleed.
“Kak.” Angel crouched down and helped Malik stand up as Malik's tub was slightly staggered by the blow.
“Gue and Angel have been dating for more than two years, we work one office. I was wrong to always be afraid of marriage. Mama and papa's divorce always haunts me. Then, Angel's father betrothed you both. That's Angel didn't say it either. I knew when the invitation was on my desk. I tried to cancel your marriage, but I was late. I'm trying to go a long way and let go of the only woman I love for you. But two years I've been back here, he ain't happy in your hands. I was wrong to take it back. Huh huh? Wrongly? One of you who can't take good care of Angel.” Shouted Malik by pointing at Adrian's face.
Angel could only cry.
Just this time, Adrian was heartbroken. It's like being stabbed in the back. During this time, he often saw the togetherness of his cousin's sister with his wife. He thought it was just ordinary closeness, in fact they had a special relationship.
“So she's the one who took your virginity?” Adrian asked Angel by pointing at Malik.
Angel nodded.
“Si*l*n.” Adrian's chest is getting sore. He approached Malik again and was about to punch him.
However, Malik held Adrian's arm.
“Sorry, Bang. You have always been above me. Achievement, family pride. This time for love. Angel chose me. Divorce her, Bang.”
Adrian laughed cynically and moved away from Malik.
“Gue ain't divorcing Angel. I'm not going to let you guys just as easily unite.”
Malik approached Adrian and hit him
Bugh
“Basic selfish man. Lu willing Angel to suffer for your happiness, Hah.”
“Kak.” Angel is still crying trying to hold off Malik who wants to keep hitting Adrian.
“Sorry, no matter what my position is above yours. I'm her husband now.” Adrian said with a grinning smile at Malik.
“Come in!” Adrian pulls Angel's left arm. However, Malik held Angel's right arm.
Suddenly the voice of the Aunt, broke their long feud.
“Pak, Mom.. Mr. Hendra died.” Said the Aunt who was still holding Adrian's house phone that can be brought.
“What?” Angel was shocked and hysterical.
Malik immediately hugged Angel's body that almost fell. It was still scrambling with Adrian who did not want to lose and also wanted to hug his wife.
