DIVORCE PAPERS
Cook together


This morning after the congregational dawn prayer in the Arka mosque did not find his wife in their room. He went down the stairs of their house looking for the whereabouts of the wife he said he no longer loved it in all corners of the house. His steps came to a halt when his net caught the figure he was looking for busy cooking in the kitchen behind him. Judging from the prepared ingredients, Arka knew that he would cook his favorite menus and also Sifa. Arka approached the kitchen, she gestured by sticking her index finger in front of her lips on Sarmi's mbok to ask him to shut up when her assistant was about to greet her. Arka also beckoned silently to Sarmi's mbok to leave the kitchen secretly. Understanding what his employer meant, Sarmi walked silently leaving his master in the kitchen alone.


Arka approached Tika with tiptoes and sneaked so that Tika was not aware of her presence. Arka hugged Tika from behind, landed a kiss and placed her head in the niche of the mother's neck of the child. Tika who was washing vegetables in the sink tiptoed and reflexed said Istighfar many times while holding her chest that was pounding. Arka laughed widely and hugged Tika tighter, once again he stole a kiss on the cheek of the woman who was arranging the roar of her breath. Tika pursed her lips, she tried to escape from the man she said no longer loved her. Instead of being free, Arka just tightened her embrace and continued to tease her. Not ignored the soft hands of Tika who tried to hit the body of the husband who nimbly swayed his body to avoid his wife's attack.


"What the hell, dad. Please let go, someone will see, be ashamed. Especially if you get caught by Sifa". Tika reminded.


Tika's words as if not heard by Arka, her hand moved quickly to turn off the sink faucet that was still flowing profusely, the, then twist the body of the woman who can not wiggle other than to follow the will of the man who is still bound by a legal marriage with her. Tika was about to open her mouth and complain about Arka's treatment but her mouth had been silenced by the lips of the man who had not wanted to release himself. As Tika fell asleep for her husband's friendly actions, she reciprocated every treatment she received warmly. Both are lulled so that they forget the place and situation that should not happen. But then Tika pushed Arka firmly she realized one thing, but, that whatever Arka does today is a form of farewell because the day after the Arka officially will return it to his mother and also his younger brother who is his current guardian status.


"Well, please don't do something like this again if you don't have the same heart". Said Tika with teary eyes.


Arka was stunned, he did not intend to play tricks on the heart of the mother of his daughter. He just wants to leave the impression that his affection is still there even though his love has fallen from his heart.


"I'm sorry dad, bun. I just want us to part ways in a good way. Two days we forget that after this we are nobody anymore. We're enjoying this weekend's togetherness more meaningfully". Bright Arka at length while helping to wipe the tears of Tika who continues to pour.


Tika nodded her head trying to understand the daughter's father's last wish. With great difficulty he stopped the pace of salt water that seemed reluctant to end just like that. Arka smiled in relief, let her kiss friendly Tika. Arka again stretched out her hand to wipe away the trail of tears that ran down the river on Tika's cheek. Tika smiled wryly, Arka's treatment made her chest throb so painful. Her hand moved catching her husband's hand that was still vigorously sweeping through the scars of her tears and kissing her reverence.


"Alright, I'm waiting for the food to be ready at the dinner table, yeah. Mommy wants to call mbok Sarmi to help you cook to finish quickly". Tika took off Arka's hand and was about to pass. But Arka deftly prevented it.


"No need to call mbok Sarmi. This morning I want to help you prepare a special breakfast. May be". Kayu Arka while glancing funny to attract the attention of Tika.


"Okay, now I help blender the spices that you have prepared, yes! That blender's on the top shelf". Show Tika try as happily as possible.


"Ready". Arka said with her two thumbs up and a smile that stuck perfectly on her lips.


Tika looked at her husband who was moving agilely carrying out the task he was charging according to his direction. He left behind a smile and sincere prayer for men who were engrossed in performing the usual ritual performed by the housewife. He prayed for her that happiness would always be bestowed upon her both in the world and in the hereafter. Not wanting to be caught paying attention, Tika prepared all the materials needed. The menu he prepared this morning is gulai gurame fish, pepes chicken innards with pieces of tofu and tempe, oseng Kakung mix teri, sambal teri Medan, sambal green, sambal, and two simple side dishes of potato parchment and fried tempeh.


The husband and wife were so enjoying their moment together that morning, the two worked hand in hand to finish their cooking deftly. Sometimes they are nosy and also tempting so it is not uncommon for both of them to laugh giggling.

Thayibah words in the form of hamdalah scattered countless from his lips that carved a smile without pause. The sense of happiness was endless when he caught the child and his daughter-in-law making out in the kitchen so he chose to undo his intention to go into the kitchen. He chose to relax in the family room, giving the couple the opportunity to build chemistry of their quality time in the hope that the bond of the daughter's household was always harmonious and adem ayem.


When engrossed in chatting with his thoughts, Murni saw Farhan was about to head to the kitchen.


Despite not understanding, Farhan still obediently followed the steps of his mother who dragged him towards the sofa and threw his buttocks on the sofa.


"Mom, what's wrong?". Farhan asked with the soul of the struggling coco.


"In the kitchen there is mbak and masmu who are making out". Murni said with a sparkling face and a smile that was attached earlier.


farhan momentarily gawked. Her heart that had been worried and worried about the state of her brother's household became calmer.


"It's like there's nowhere more privacy". Farhan pretended to protest, he pursed his lips.


Pure Ma'am who was anxious with Farhan's response squeezed Farhan's pointed lips so fierce.


"Revelation! don't bother them, yeah". Threatening Pure Ma'am glared at Farhan.


Farhan chuckled at seeing his mother care so much for his brother.


"Yes, mom. Ja".Farhan assured his mother.

Farhan followed his sister's steps towards the dining table while Pure Ma called Sifa who was still in her room, not knowing what she was doing there.


When Farhan arrived at the dining table he saw his brother-in-law who was still using an apron was busy arranging various kinds of menus on the table assisted by his beloved wife, he thought.


"Waw, the soul of a struggling single wants to immediately justify girls people see the old bride like a newlywed, sticky like a stamp ha ha ha ha". Farhan laughed out loud flirting with his two brothers.


Tika and Arka smiled blandly. There is a hidden bitterness behind the smile they put on.
