"What if I still can't accept you as Ardi's companion?" Kartika asked. He wanted to know how serious Ella was, the girl in front of him was to Ardi, his son. What would that girl do? Will this girl change her mind? Will Ella choose Ardi or her profession?
"I'm going to give up." said Ella. The girl's words sounded so sad, poignant and languishing. The girl who had been staring at him bravely slowly lowered her head again, biting her lips tightly. It was like trying hard to hold back his crying that was about to explode and flow profusely from both of his eyes.
"Say you love Ardi? But how come you let Ardi go so easily?" Kartika was curious about Ella's answer. Why did this girl choose to retreat and surrender? He won the heart of his son. And Ardi who already loves this girl would not want to be that easy to let Ella go. Moreover, Ardi had never had this serious relationship with any woman before.
"I did love Mas Ardi. Loved her. Therefore I will not be able to be an excuse for Ardi to oppose his parents, against his whole family, especially his own mother. I cannot take a son from his own mother. And I also could not afford to make Ardi mas as a child who disobeyed his mother...I better just back off."
Ella sounded strong and calm enough to say those words when the original heart felt crushed, and smashed to pieces. But how else? Indeed, since the beginning of their relationship has experienced a dead end when faced with the blessing of Ardi's parents. His relationship with Ardi has indeed stuck and cannot find a middle ground. The only way is to get the blessing of Mama Ardi. And if that blessing they can't get, it's the same as game over.
If so, what can Ella do? All rational thought and common sense will inevitably lead to that decision. All is inevitable. If forced to continue it will only get uncertainty and deeper pain of course.
Kartika fell silent to hear Ella's reply. A little touched will also be so great the love of the girl to her son. To the extent that Ella is willing to let go of Ardi, giving up her love. So that his son would no longer oppose his parents and his family. So that his son does not become an ungodly child and is not filial to parents just because it is blinded by love.
"I'm just asking for one thing, ma'am. After our farewell maybe the mistress can match Ardi's mas. Please find her a good woman. So that he can be happy with her forming a family and giving offspring to the Pradana family." Ella made a request. If he can not be with Ardi, at least Ardi must be able to live happily with other women who may be better than him.
"alright. But I don't think Ardi will be that easy to step back and give up on his relationship with you, even if I ask for it ...You should tell him to end your relationship." Kartika also asked Ella for one thing. He hoped that Ardi, his son, would give up if Ella herself threw it away, dumping him. Until the next his son can rise again and receive another girl who is more worthy to be his life companion.
"I will do it. After Mas Ardi from Singapore I'll see him." Ella gives her ability to Kartika. "I'll make sure we don't get in touch after that."
"Alright I think our conversation is enough. May you also be happy with a new love." Kartika ended her conversation with Ella.
"Thank you Miss Kartika Pradana." Ella nodded giving a polite tribute to the woman.
Kartika then passed from his seat, approaching the chair set where Linggar and Mahes sat. He invited Linggar, his youngest son, to leave the restaurant. Not so lunch, maybe his appetite has been lost because of his conversation with Ella earlier.
Meanwhile Ella was still sitting limp in her chair. With his tears that suddenly flowed rapidly without being able to be broken again. Her chest feels so tight. His head was so full of thoughts. The defense that he had launched so that it looked tough and brave in front of Kartika Pradana was finally broken down as well. Along with the middle-aged woman's departure, Ella's tears melted and flowed profusely unstoppably again.
Mahes approached Ella worriedly. She has been watching Ella talking to Kartika Pradana. Ella looked so strong and strong before the mother of her lover. Apparently, Ella had been holding back all her emotions. The girl was actually not that strong and strong.
Mahes took a seat next to Ella, thrusting a box of tisue at the girl. Then Mahes remained silent, neither talking nor asking Ella anything. He could only look at the girl, waiting until Ella was satisfied crying and a little relieved of her feelings.
I don't know why Mahes couldn't bear to see Ella like that. Seeing the girl was required by her own family. There was a little bit of discomfort in his heart. What's wrong with Ella? Is it wrong to come from an ordinary family? Is it wrong for Ella to accept Ardi's love? Is it wrong for both of them to love each other?
Mahes was really upset and helpless to see this scene in front of him. Upset at herself who can't help Ella. Upset with Ardi, upset with Budhe Kartika. He knew Ardi wasn't entirely guilty of this. But still, Ardi should be able to protect this girl. Not letting him cry like this.
He retrieved his postel and contacted Ardi through a short message on his mobile phone.
Maheshara
Hey asshole. Cepet go home or I call Ella, your girl by force.
Lazuardis
Huh huh? You're going crazy?
Maheshara
You're crazy, leaving him alone for too long. Budhe Kartika just found Ella.
Lazuardis
Whahuh? Mama?... Ok, I'll be home tomorrow. Take 1st flight.
Bro, please help me take care of Ella now.
Maheshara
Ok. But don't blame me for being filthy.
Lazuardis
Maheshara
Damn you's!
She's too precious to cry.
Lazuardis
She's cry?
Fvck Off!!
Mahes was a little relieved to see Ardi's reply. At least his cousin must know and act. It can not be postponed anymore, they both have to finish talking about their relationship immediately. It has to continue or end here. Do not delay and cause further injury.
"Els? I'm anterin you're home, aren't I?" Mahes volunteered when Ella was already a little calmer and her cries eased a little.
"No, mas. I can go home by myself. Anyway I brought the car earlier," Ella refused still trying to wipe her tears that continued to flow nonstop.
"Easy. Later I can have people bring your car anther to your house." Mahes remained pushy because he thought Ella was in a condition that was not possible to drive alone. Too unstable and emotional, too dangerous and risky for him. "I'm anterin home. I promise you your car will be delivered to your house safely."
Mahes helped Ella get out of her chair, took her walking to the parking lot and entered her white fortune car. Ella sat in the seat next to the driver before herself got in and drove her car away from the sushi restaurant.
"What area are you in, El?"
"Wiyata's Curtain."
"Ok, I know the area. Then turn around at Giant and go on the street before Royel Plaza, right?" Mahes ensures their purpose.
"Yes, that's right."
"El, can you tell me what you were talking about?" Mahes asked, he could not hide his curiosity. The talk of what they've done to make Ella that sad. Until it can make him cry like that, and Kartika Pradana also seems a little hit until his lunch appetite was lost.
"Mistress Kartika, she said that she still could not approve of our relationship." Ella answered and her tears flowed back. Mahes immediately gave his car tissue to the girl.
"Why is that?"
"Thinkable, mas. Because I am not from among you. And I can't keep up with their requests..."
"Request? What kind of request?"
"They want me to give up my profession. They asked me to be a pure housewife who supports husbands." Ella recounts Ardi's parents' request that she could not fulfill.
"What's? Just crazy! What is it that being a doctor is easy? It's good to play tell it off." Mahes also felt annoyed at the request of Ardi's parents who were silly to him. Why should I give up the profession? Will be able to make Ella a private practice in her house later after Ardi and Ella married. That way Ella will be able to keep working while keeping the house. To take care of her husband and children and her house of hands.
Do not allow him to work outside the home, in the clinic or in the hospital. It's OK, but don't tell a doctor not to practice at all or throw away his profession. It is the same as breaking the wings of a bird. How can the bird live its next life?
The job as a doctor is actually very flexible and can be done anywhere. Do not just be analogous to the work in a hospital that is crowded with tension. Nowadays a lot of work can be done while at home and carry out its functions and nature as a wife.
"I certainly can't give up this profession, mas. As a fellow must be Mas Mahes understands my reason."
"Of course I know very well. Then how's next?"
"I chose to give up...I'll release Mas Ardi. Maybe that's the best way for both of us." Ella ended the story, busy wiping away her tears and not intending to continue the conversation again.
Mahes could only glance at Ella from the rearview mirror with pity and concern. Are you really going to be happy after this? He knows exactly how much love Ardi and Ella have, both of them are really sincere. Nothing wrong with their relationship, no matter what between them. Only the runnyam condition about family background and sultanate status alone made them trapped. Circumstances that force them to separate, make them unable to live together.
