"Mas, I'm going to the kitchen first. Suddenly want instant noodles." Diandra got out of bed because she was hungry.
"Do you want me to go to China?" asked Erlan who had just finished taking a shower.
"No need. You rest first. Tomorrow you will work" replied Diandra and then came out of her room. Actually Erlan was eager to catch up with Diandra, but she did have to give Diandra some space on her own.
Diandra's activity in the kitchen invites Granny Harni out of her room. Diandra's sad face was clearly visible to the eyes whose vision began to decline.
Erlan and Diandra arrive at the house at eleven o'clock at night which means their Grandma and their Mommy are asleep. It turns out that Grandma had not fallen asleep. "Son, what are you?" asked Grandma to surprise Diandra who was daydreaming. Even almost instant noodles are thrown away and wrap the cooked noodles.
"Eh, Grandma! How come you haven't slept?" Diandra is aware of the ridiculousness of immediately misbehaving even looks nervous. Of course Diandra did not want to tell what had happened to Grandma. However, no matter how to hide the carcass, it will definitely smell.
"Grandma hasn't slept. I don't know why Grandma can't sleep tonight. Grandma's feeling was not good," Grandma answered getting closer to Diandra who was standing in front of the stove.
"Oh, this is Grandma, do you want instant noodles? Let all Diandra makein," asked Diandra who was confused to hide her sad face.
"What's wrong?" Grandma asked back to make Diandra look at Grandma.
"Hm? What's the point, Grandma?" Diandra looked down at the noodles she had put into the boiling water on the stove.
"Grandma knows you're actually hiding something from Grandma, right? Even Meli kept quiet. What are you guys hiding? Your sad face will also not be able to keep you hidden Diandra. Tell Grandma what's up?"
Diandra's getting down. Now his eyes are no longer focused on the instant noodles he cooks because it starts to glaze over. "No! I can't tell you what's going on. Who knew Grandma's fidelity would deteriorate, and .. I wouldn't want that to happen," Diandra's inner self tried to hold back all the feelings she wanted to express to Grandma who had been staring at her since.
"Son! Grandma just guessed. Does this have anything to do with that adult magazine lady? For months he had no news. Meli also looks evasive when Grandma asks. Is it true what Grandma's guessing?"
Again Diandra can not dodge. Maybe because they are like their own family, so they already have an inner bond and feel the sadness that is felt.
"Nothing, Grandma! Just a coincidence. Or maybe he's abroad," replied Diandra who should focus on instant noodles that are starting to flaccid. Diandra averted her gaze and started to slice the instant noodles she cooked to immediately put into the bowl. "Hopefully Grandma did not continue to ask," Diandra's inner self again who really had to hide the look on her face. "Hm ... Diaandra laper, Grandma. Are you sure Grandma doesn't want to?" Diandra also went from the kitchen to the dining table with a bowl of instant noodles sauce and a glass of water.
"No! Grandma had dinner last night. You eat calm. Grandma's here. Erlan's asleep?" Grandma stared at the end of the stairs leading towards Erlan's room.
"Not yet, abis took a shower. He has a lot of work and I helped a little earlier," said Diandra as she devoured the noodles she cooked.
Harni's grandmother let Diandra finish the instant noodles because she didn't want her favorite granddaughter to choke on her when she asked her questions. "What, you didn't have dinner last night? How do tumbens eat noodles?" just a pleasantry question Grandma Harni could ask.
"Udah. Maybe because the weather is cold so suddenly you want a drag. Diandra used to often eat noodles in the middle of the night to comfort the heart of Diandra if again sad and miss the same father. Dad used to be a lot of masakin Diandra instant noodles, so Diandra felt suddenly calm if he ate noodles. Let alone eating whole chilies like this. It felt plong once," replied Diandra not aware of what she said.
"If that's so let you calm down," replied Grandma increasingly convinced that Diandra is indeed hiding something.
"Now you can tell because you are relieved. What makes you sad so you have to eat instant noodles to feel relieved?" This time Diandra could not dodge anymore.
"alright. But Grandma promised nothing after Diandra told me this," said Diandra suddenly felt weak and downcast.
"Is the adult magazine woman pregnant with Erlan's child?" Instantly Diandra looked up at Grandma.
"How did Grandma know?" Diandra's face looks serious. But different from the face of his grandmother who looks relaxed. Diandra thought her grandmother would be shocked by the news.
"Grandmother just guessed. Then how's the condition?"
"He miscarried, Grandma. And .. and we're waiting for the baby's DNA test results. Erlan continued to avoid if the child was not her son."
"Grandmother believes in Erlan. The boy was a little hard. Not a little, stubborn. But since marrying you. Granny is so happy you can melt Erlan's heart. I'm sure since marrying you, Erlan hasn't done that again. If only the boy was Erlan's son, Grandma would have punished him. Don't worry and don't be sad anymore."
Diandra smiled too. It turned out that Grandma was not surprised and her face was ordinary. It seems that all of that was predicted by Granny Harni.
"Sorry, Grandma. Diandra also believed in what Mas Erlan believed. But somehow even though the child miscarried, Diandra felt something was up. Diandra's heart isn't calm, Grandma. Is it possible because she had and often slept with that woman. Or ... maybe just jealousy,"
"Yes, Grandma understands. Even if the child is still alive, Grandma will only accept grandchildren from you, son. Not the adult magazine lady. Grandma wouldn't be willing to give all this to him. Although Grandma will also give a little because of Erlan's flesh blood,"
"But, Grandma! Diandra can't get pregnant. Diarrhea ...."
"Son! Nothing is impossible with the power of God. Grandma is still sure you can get pregnant. Doctor Amira is a pretty famous doctor. You don't think about anything else and we have to be sure that kid's not Erlan's."
"But, Grandma. Kasian he's alone in the hospital. Diandra was in his position."
"Your heart is soft, Diandra. There's a nurse who'll take care of him. Erlan would also not let him why even if he hated him at this moment. Grandma was sure she was giving her best treatment as well. Not because she still loves him, but because of humanity. You should rest. It's past midnight."
Diandra just nodded. He did not want to argue with Grandma. Soon he got up and washed the bowl. "Diandra go up first, Grandma. Grandma also had to sleep. Don't think of anything either."
"Yes. Grandma is fine." The two hugged and went into their rooms.
