The god swallowed his lunch today, with great difficulty and a narrow esophagus. Just now the man had eaten two mouthfuls of rice and side dishes of his wife, Dewa as if no longer tasteful, when his mother-in-law, Anjani came and gave the news that two more days, he was, Anika and Rama are getting married.
Who is not in shock?
For a moment, God asked at the deepest corner of his heart, is this a love for his ex-wife?
Three years have passed, so with reason that should be sane, God should be more focused on making his wife happy, not just thinking about Anika. He betrayed Anika by having an affair with Vanya.
"What's wrong with you, Wa?" Anjani asked softly, when she saw the God let her food sit in her mouth without chewing it. "You sick?" ask a slightly suspicious Anjani.
"No, Ma. Just shocked, because of the news of Anika's marriage in two days, a sudden feeling," replied the God. He knows well, Anjani's character will certainly know that he is thinking about Anika.
"Mama herself was also shocked, Vanya also looked surprised when Aunt Kania said, Anika got married tomorrow after tomorrow," Anjani said. "Yes, Mama wants to go home first, yeah. Thank you, you and Vanya have taken care of the boutique well," said Anjani, before then passed away.
In her place, Vanya was stunned by her husband's attitude and reason. Perhaps an inner bond, Vanya felt that her husband was distraught from hearing the news of Anika's marriage. Is it possible that God still put his heart on that cousin? Vanya was afraid when it happened.
"You still love Anika, do you?" asked Vanya without looking at the God. The woman was still busy cutting out the kebaya pattern ordered by the client a few days ago.
"No" answered the god. The man continued to eat, so that Vanya would not be more suspicious. As powerful as God's energy trying to get Anika out of his heart.
"But it seems that you are still thinking about Anika" said Vanya.
"You jealous?" ledek Dewa while continuing to chew his food.
"For what? Anika does not want to compete with her cousin, especially me. So do what? I better shut up and move on with my life. You are also my husband now. I'm not like a good Anika, I'm just a bad woman who snatched my husband under the pretext of love" Vanya stopped her movement that cut the kebaya pattern of her plans.
To be honest, until now Vanya still feels guilt for the destruction of Anika's household with the Gods, although Anika says she has forgiven Vanya.
"But I don't believe it" replied Vanya. The woman began to look for trouble and liked to be suspicious of Gods, whereas, gods are not so.
The god put down his glass instantly, looking at Vanya who started to successfully ignite his emotions. "It's work hours, Vanya. Please don't provoke my emotions. I was clear as it was and I was so avoiding arguments" he said.
"Mas, if you still like Anika, honestly why, anyway?" ask Vanya.
"Then, if I say that, what do you want? The ends are getting in a fight, right? I don't think the same way of your mind. I'm honest, even you tell me to lie. It's up to you to think about what, obviously, I'm tired and there's no time and energy to fight!" The gods cried and went away from there.
Vanya was just stunned in place. Come to think of it, Vanya who was too suspicious and disliked with the attitude of God, when she heard that Anika would get married in two days.
Not wanting to let her husband sulk for too long, Vanya then followed the God who was smoking in the yard next to the boutique. Since separating from Anika, the god who was once a non-smoker, is now just like an addiction to cigarettes.
"Mas, I'm sorry," Vanya said, as the God took a sip of his cigarette, and glanced at the glance. "I'm sorry I was too suspicious of you. I was wrong, sorry, huh?"
"Yes. Next time don't repeat, Vanya. Do not suspect anything excessive, if you don't want what you suspect, it happens for real later" replied the god.
Vanya approached the God, and sat down beside the man. The two then drifted and drowned in the afternoon chatter. There are many things that God tries to cover, for the sake of the integrity of his household.
Regretted? I don't know. God doesn't really know exactly how he feels right now. What God thinks, does Rama love Elvio like his own daughter?
God does not know and does not understand himself, nor his feelings.
