CHASING A DREAM HUSBAND
Apologizing

Natasha entered the building of a large enough house, a place that she once wanted to be part of the inhabitants of this house. Not because of the treasure but because of the comfort he got from a middle-aged pair who so loved him like his own child.

" Natasha, baby ..." Mama Andra was seen approaching Natasha with her arms wide open. " Aunty's happy you finally want to come here again." Aunt Melly led Natasha to sit on the guest sofa. " You how are you, baby? Old Aunt didn't hear from you, where have you been all this time?" mama Andra asked kindly as her hands gently stroked Natasha's head. To be honest he is very happy if he has in-laws like Aunt Melly and also Om Ruslan, suddenly a sense of uneasiness rippled in Natasha's heart, will the parents of Yoga is also this warm to him.

" What's wrong with you, baby? How do you look sad?" mama Andra asked back when she found Natasha's expression not cheerful.

" I'm fine, Auntie .." said Natasha forcing a smile.

" Where have you been, Natasha?" Mama Andra draped a strand of hair behind Natasha's ear.

" I-I came home to Bandung yesterday, Auntie."

" To Bandung?" Mom Andra's face paled. " Sa-sayang, you, did you tell me about what Andra did to your parents?" Mama Andra looked worried.

Natasha who read Mama Andra's silence immediately shook her head quickly. " No, Aunt. Yesterday I came home because ..." Natasha paused for a moment her sentence to catch her breath. " Because Papa I died, Auntie." Natasha immediately bowed.

" Innalillahi wa innailaihi rojiuun ..." Mama Andra hugged Natasha. " Oh my God, why didn't you tell me about Auntie? You are patient, my dear. Aunt also condolences." Mama Andra stroked Natasha's back.

" Thank you, Auntie." said Natasha to unravel Mama Andra's embrace. " Oh yeah, Auntie, about Andra's problem ... "

" Oh yeah, come with Auntie ..." Mama Andra immediately pulled Natasha's hand, She took Natasha to the stairs to step towards Andra's room.

" Andra, guess who's coming?" Mama Andra just popped her head out of the door when she got in front of Andra's room.

" Who, Ma?" andra asked as she grimaced with the pain on her lips.

" Maraaan ..." Mama Andra immediately opened the door of Andra's room and pulled Natasha into Andra's room. " He came nengokin you, loh."

" Natasha??" Andra gasped at Natasha's presence, she immediately positioned her body to sit up despite the difficulty of the former blow on her stomach.

" The food has not been touched. The ndra?" mama Andra asked when she saw that the porridge made by Bi Siti had not been touched at all.

" Andra's not sick, Ma. Why eat porridge, anyway?" protest Yoga in a soft voice, because if his mouth moves wide the pain on his lips is increasingly felt.

" Your mother bonyok is so said not to be sick," said Mama Andra. " Let Natasha bribe you, yeah!"

Natasha gasped at Mama Andra's request. " A-i, Auntie?" point Natasha to herself.

" Yes, let's sit here." Mama Andra led Natasha to sit on the edge of Andra's bed. " Help you bribe Andra, yes." Then Mama Andra handed over the bowl of porridge that Bi Siti had placed on the nightstand. " Aunty stay first, please talk to both of you." Mama Andra hurried to leave Natasha and Andra.

The departure of Mama Andra makes the room atmosphere awkward, especially for Natasha. Maybe if it never happened that night, he was happy to be alone with Andra, but since that incident, actually alone with Andra, especially in the room made him feel uncomfortable.

" Why shut up? You heard what Mama said?" andra broke their awkwardness.

Finally, Natasha was forced to feed Andra with a sour face.

" If you help that person who is sincere do not frown, dong!"

Natasha gave an annoyed look towards Andra. In his heart he grumbled, who was the intention of helping?

" Are you still mad at me?"

Natasha just grunts not answering Andra's questions.

" I miss the chatty Natasha, who is always so spoiled and always acts so annoying looking for my attention. Where's the Natasha I used to know?"

Natasha looked into Andra's eyes who was also looking at her heart, as Natasha's heart was pounding, she swallowed her saliva.

" Did my treatment that night really make you change?" ask Andra later.

" Alright I'm sorry, thank you for coming to see me here," Andra said sincerely.

" I didn't come here to visit you, I came here to ask you to retract your report of the persecution that Yoga has done to you" Natasha said.

" Report? What's your report mean?" Andra was confused not to understand.

" Mama wanted to report the man who hit you to the police station, Ndra." Mama Andra's voice suddenly sounded in Andra's room.

" For what, Ma?" fanya Andra disagreed.

" Yes to give that guy a punishment, dong. He can't just play like that. This is a state of law." Strict Mama Andra.

" No, Ma."

" Can't dong, Ndra. That person alone has no good intention of apologizing for completing the family. Mama told Om Ridwan to take care of this reporting, so Mama called Natasha, who knows Natasha can give instructions to the perpetrators of the beating, and can be a witness. You can help Auntie, can't you, Natasha?

" Aunty. sorry in advance ..." Natasha was confused about where to start.

" Why, baby? You want to help Auntie? Don't look at Andra if you're still mad at her. Look at Auntie's just like that."

Natasha swallows her saliva, Aunt Melly and Om Ruslan have always been good to her. Sometimes he wanted to repay their kindness all along. But not to help them report their own husband.

" I'm sorry before, Auntie, if Natasha can't help, Auntie." Natasha lowered her head, it was actually hard for her to refuse what Natasha wanted, but even harder to grant that request.

" It's okay if you can't help, you don't have to be sad, dong." Mama Andra stroked Natasha's back.

" Auntie actually, I mean I came here, to beg Auntie and Andra to ..." Natasha glanced at Mama Andra for a moment.

" For what, Natasha? Just say it, don't hesitate" said Mama Andra.

" To cancel the plan to report the man who hit Andra, Auntie."

Mama Andra was surprised to hear Natasha's words, she did not expect at Natasha's request. " Why, baby? Why did you ask Auntie to cancel that report?" ask Mama Andra astonished.

" I-I'm sorry, Auntie. I represent the person who beat Andra, Natasha apologized profusely for the violence and beatings that happened to Andra. Natasha begs the aunt of the family to be heartened to forgive and undo the intention to report the person." Natasha pleaded as she clenched her hands in front of her chest.

" Why are you begging for that guy, honey?" mama Andra asked, staring alternately at Natasha and Andra, who were staring at Natasha with unexplained eyes. " Is that person threatening you? Don't be afraid, Natasha. Om and Aunt will protect you if that person threatens you to testify."

" No, Aunt. That guy didn't threaten Natasha. It's my own initiative, Auntie."

" Why are you defending that guy so much, baby? Why are you so worried about the guy who hit Andra?" ask Mama Andra full of search.

" Because ..." Natasha's eye tails towards Andra who is still fixedly staring at her. " Because that man was the one who helped me that night, Auntie. He was the one who saved me from the destruction that I almost experienced .." Natasha said in a choked voice.
