Divorced Due to Paralysis
S2. Heart To Heart

After a meeting with Jeff's family, Laura chose to accompany the man tonight because she knew that Jeff was in desperate need of his presence.

"Hows it? are you angry because of what your mother said?" ask Laura to Jeff.

"I don't understand how to talk to her anymore but I definitely feel that she's gone too far. I don't want to talk about her anymore and I've accepted Daddy's decision to marry me but never interfere with my life again and mom Veni. I will never regret my life that was born from her womb, but don't embarrass me for her attitude and behavior all along" Jeff replied.

He did not think about his birth mother. They had already relented and gone away from the main house life, then why would he still consider mom venu as his rival. He should have realized that he was the one who took everything from Mom Veni.

"Have it, never think of anything unimportant at all. Tomorrow we start the exam and watch out if you get a score below 7. Have you studied for the exam tomorrow?"

"Why do I learn to have a smart wife? give me 50% of the answers you have" he said so easily. Jeff said such a thing as if he did not have any burden. Laura doesn't believe what Jeff says. He learned all along that it was nice that the man lived, and Jeff easily asked for 50% of the answer.

"Just kid! I'm the one who learned why you asked for the answer. I won't give an answer to anyone including you. Studying. You promised me you'd learn, so keep your promise to me. Study properly and show me that you really mean test time. There's a lot we're going through, Jeff, so don't think it's easy. Not everything can be easily solved. Sometimes we have to sacrifice a lot for something" Laura told Jeff. He wanted to tell the man that everything could not be solved so easily, just like what he said earlier.

"Yes okay, I'll learn. Don't be angry anymore. Let's go home." Jeff invited Laura home because indeed besides it was night, they also had a test tomorrow morning so there was no need to linger outside like this. Laura herself got on Jeff's motorcycle, and they headed straight to the house where Laura lived. However, on the way home, Laura noticed that there was a cart of Padang sataymen and she asked Jeff to stop.

"What else Laura? it's late and we should get home soon. Not that I don't want to take you for a walk anymore but we should have reached home by 10:00 p.m. Isn't that the rule in your house?" Laura doesn't blame Jeff for any of that because it's what's being said right. But he was still hungry and wanted the satay of the field so he asked Jeff to stop.

"Sate Padang, I want to eat Padang satay because I did not eat with satisfaction earlier. After all our food is no longer blessed by God because of your mother's senseless talk. So it is better to eat outside to seek the blessing of God. Already, let's eat." Laura is still Laura and once she wants that, she gets it. Jeff himself can only give up with all that. He was forced to get off his bike with Laura and order satay padang.

At first only Laura ordered it but saw Laura who ate it so that made Jeff feel tempted by the food then he became the one who ordered Padang satay without meat. Laura really looks happy with all this. He never wanted fancy food because he was used to it all and when he knew Jeff, he felt that his life was getting more colorful because of the presence of the man with all his advantages and disadvantages that made Laura feel comfortable living with him.

"It's delicious, let's pack 3 more for my house. They must really like this satay because it tastes very good. I like the spice too," he said excitedly. But suddenly he thought of something he would do in New York.

"I have an idea" said it all of a sudden and it made Jeff wonder. What will this girl do with her ideas.

"What's? no, not Laura. You we need to do something beyond your means because I'm going to ban it. Just find yourself and never think that I'm asking you to be someone else. Don't ever do that because I don't like it. I like you better as you are. Not as contrived as most girls out there."

"Curtain! I haven't said anything yet but you've said such a thing at length. I said I have an idea doesn't mean I want to be someone else. I was just thinking what if in New York later we sell typical Indonesian food. Isn't that fun?" laura asked without thinking about anything else at this moment because she thought that the idea was already very extraordinary. While Jeff himself could only sigh heavily. He knew that Laura wasn't thinking about how to build the business she wanted to run.

"Why not happy?"

"Not unhappy Laura. I did not defeat your desire to sell Indonesian food and introduce our food to foreigners out there. But please think again about how the football will be. Stock market and others. Let's take a small example, who will cook it? Can you explain it?" ask Jeff to make Laura feel stupid at this time. He never thought of getting there. It turned out that all of that was not as easy as turning the palm of the hand.

"Why? already conscious?" jeff asked, which made Laura immediately upset with her future husband.

"Hais, stop. You caused! I hate you, Jeff,"

"But I love you, then what?" ask Jeff to make Laura speechless again.
