Ghost Husband
The audible voice of heart
Today Milka went to school without passion, her life is no longer free, the King knows everything she says in his heart. Like last night the King heard everything he said in his heart, and, he could also hear the voice of the King. It really bothers Milka. There is no freedom in his life.
Milka scratches her head that does not itch, a sign that she is frustrated with what is in nature. Everything seems absurd, but everything is real. Milka's spirit is completely gone this morning.
“Milka..”.
Glydis greeted Milka with a sweet smile. Said that he was very happy, because reportedly the girl's killer will be punished severely.
“Happy for you.”
“Happy dong,” Sahut Glydis.
Then Milka and Glydis walked to the Class, because soon the lesson would begin. But Milka's concentration was disturbed because the King kept talking to her. Finally the King was silent, because Milka begged in his heart for the King to let him study quietly.
“Mil.. to yuk canteen,” Take Glydis.
Arriving at the school cafeteria, there was already Melody and friends sitting down.
“Eh, you know enggak, the student at our school was already married loh.” Melody opened the conversation to provoke a commotion.
Milka who heard Melody's words was irritated, it felt like she wanted to grab the half-brother's hair, then hit him at the table. Fortunately he wasn't that cruel, to do it.
Not wanting to serve Melody, Milka chose to be quiet. It would be better than him being lured by Melody's venomous mouth speech.
“oya? Who is Mel?” Ask one of Melody's friends.
“Kasi tau not ya,” Melody seems to deliberately make her friends curious.
“But he is not the same marriage man,” Melody further fishing, may want to make Milka angry.
“Keep the same what's Mel?” Ask Melody's friend again.
“Sama Ghost.” Melody's words made her friends shocked in disbelief to hear what Melody said..
“Oath mampus deh.” Said Melody, the other students and schoolgirls, who were enjoying their break time approaching, to hear further who the schoolgirl who married the ghost was. They look very curious.
“The child is here. More meatballs.” Melody glanced at Milka who again bribed the meatballs into her mouth.
Suddenly the children immediately looked towards Milka, as well as Glydis.
Melody looked so happy to see Milka cornered.
“That's really Mil?” Ask a male student.
Milka became confused not knowing what she should answer, if telling the truth, one school would think she was crazy. But if they don't answer, they will justify what Melody said.
“Udah, deh. You guys just eat. Yeah, Milka married a ghost. Mel, you want slander, reasonable slander dong.” Glydis defended Milka.
“Only the same Milka, just know she's married to a ghost.” Melody won't lose. The others cheered to tell Milka to talk.
“Non Milka.” Shouted Mr. Narti the canteen's mother came closer to Milka.
Then the voice of the king said it was him. It turned out that he had heard it all, when Melody cornered Milka, saying that Milka had married and married a ghost. It seems like the King did not accept his concubine was demeaned and toyed with by other charcoal.
“You listen, Milka has a boyfriend. She is not married, let alone married a ghost.” Glydis.
Now the children in the cafeteria turned around to shout at Melody, and told her that Melody was lying.
Melody looked so angry and approached Milka who had just been silent.
“Dating with who you are!”
“Not your business!” Milka defiantly.
“Bare yes, you. I'll report me to dad.” Melody said and left Milka.
Inwardly he says that this time he will let Milka win, but next time he will no longer, he will gather evidence showing Milka undergoing a ritual marriage with a ghost. And by then all will believe him, and will scorn Milka.
“Tuh son yes, sableng base.” Said Glydis who didn't like Melody.
“You are silent anyway Mil tuh grandma drop by,” Tanya Glydis who snarled at Milka who had just been silent not resisting.
“I lazy ladeni her Dis, lazy noisily me.” Milka.
Milka and Glydis returned to class, to finish today's lesson. And, after the lesson hour is over, and when I'm going home. Outside there was already a King waiting for Milka.
“It's done?” Ask King Milka.
“He who's Mil? She's your girlfriend huh?” Ask Glydis.
Milka who had no other answer just nodded, assuring that Raja was her boyfriend.
“So you really have a Mil girlfriend? How did you never tell me? You don't think I'm a friend?” Glydis looks disappointed that Milka actually has a boyfriend, and Milka never tells her about it.
“Sorry, I wanted to tell you a story, but there was never a chance.” Milka tries to persuade Glydis not to be angry with her. And, it worked. Glydis smiled back
“But why wear a mask? You want to go to the show?” Ask plain Glydis.
“Iya Dis, she wants to go to her friend's birthday show, and, her theme is mask.” Lying Milka. And, it seems Glydis believed him.
Milka went home to Glydis. And then, time suddenly stopped. The king embraced Milka's waist and brought her back to the Underworld.
Milka did not understand why the King wanted to come to the human world just to help him. Yes, although the King, is a King that sucks, but Milka's judgment will be her little fox. That the King turned out to be a person who paid enough attention to his concubine. And maybe the King did that to the other concubines as well.
“It seems that he is quite fair as a husband.” Mumbled Milka.
Milka forgot that the King was able to hear her words, in her room once again Madam West who was tidying up the King's workroom, saw a smile from the King's lips. And, seeing that made Mrs West very happy.
Mrs West hoped that smile would always be etched on the King's lips, and, she hoped that the King could unmask her, re-exposing her true face, she said, Mrs West doesn't want the King to keep hiding behind the mask she wears. Madam West wants the King back to what he was. He did not want the King to continue to fall and torture himself.
