"It's almost night. Felix didn't come to pick me up. Never mind picking up, the phone just can't be called". Berli. He stared at the window, hoping that the man in waiting, came to pick him up.
"This is a very good dress.. ". He gently rubbed back Felix's gown.
The contents of the paper bag were already opened. And Berli was so amazed to see the contents, which was none other than a long knee-length dress in sweet cream. Of course, this clothing will be combined with pants and a matching hijab.
"Will I deserve to wear it?. Ah no, Felix isn't necessarily coming to pick me up either". Said Berli who was still fretting.
......................
"Son, what's going on?. You're so neat?". Said Bu Inez who was surprised to see her eldest son was already wearing neat clothes and asked her maid to prepare dinner.
"Did mom forget what I said this morning?. I'll bring a girl for me to introduce to my mom. Mama get ready. I'll pick him up first". Felix summingah. Her mood was so flowery.
"But son..?". Said Miss Inez who was cut off because Felix left in a hurry.
"I'll be right back". Shouted Felix in the doorway. He was like a little boy who was going to buy his favorite candy.
"I was wondering, who was this woman Felix meant?. Just be careful if my suspicions about the girl are true". Mumbled Bu Inez with his cynical tone. The girl he hated was Berli.
Kringg, Ms. Inez's phone rang, a sign of an incoming call.
"Dear Lathesia, what's up?". Said Ms. Inez when she picked up the call, it was Lathesia who called.
"Auntie's fine, baby. What's up?".
"Actually tonight I plan to come to aunt's house. Is Felix home?. I want to see him". Lathesia said on the phone without hesitation.
'How do I say that Felix will bring another woman into this house?'. Bu Inez sat down, making Lathesia astonished.
"Tante Inez?". Lathesia's words resuscitated Ms. Inez.
"Ah yes dear. Look, the aunt doesn't really know if Felix will be home tonight or not. Tell you what, what if you wait for news from aunt. Like Felix is there, auntie will call you and you just came here. How's it?". Said Ms. Inez
Ms. Inez said so was to ascertain whether the woman Felix was going to bring was Berli or not. If his suspicions were correct, then he would invite Lathesia to come. That way Berli will feel uncomfortable and hurt. While if the woman was not Berli, she would probably ignore Lathesia.
"Hm. So yeah. All right, I'll wait for some good news from auntie". Lathesia was a little disappointed. After all, he has prepared everything.
"I'm sorry, auntie.. ". Said Ms. Inez.
"It's okay aunt. Then I hang up the phone first. See you". Lathesia hung up the phone
"Yes darling". Reply Ms. Inez. Their conversation is over.
"We'll see who that woman Felix brought. If it was that poor woman he had brought, then I would have Lathesia come. That way he would feel unworthy to live with my son". Mumbled Bu Inez who was still upset.
