Hello Arvin!
Lovables
Nara was still not satisfied looking at her mother. She followed him wherever his mother went. Don't want to lose a second. Even when his mother was busy cooking lunch. Nara continued to wrestle spoiled to him. Just like he used to do at home.
“You rarely cook? Keep you guys out there to eat?”
“Arvin the cook. Sometimes if Bi Marni here likes masakin lunch.” Nara was ashamed.
I look surprised, then smile. “Arvin the cook?” He said he didn't believe.
“He's better at cooking than me. The cuisine is better.” Nara replied with a frown. “But I'm doing it right, Mom. If Bi Marni doesn't come here. Arvin is a slob.” Continue to defend yourself.
“Yes is okay. Who knows the origin of both are willing. Divide the task so that household work is lighter. You are also at home in the laundry.” section
Nara was silent for a moment, “Bapak is still angry yes same me?”
“Love father first time. My parents are not the same as my mother. But my father really loves you. Keep thinking of you.”
Nara just nodded. Maybe his heart is getting greedy. He wanted his father to forgive as his mother did. Of course it took a long time for his father to accept the circumstances and disappointment that had been made by Nara.
“Mom can come here? Mr ngizinin his mother?”
“Arvin who asked mom to come here. He kept calling Amel, asking me to come. He said you're not okay anymore. Amel was invited to her brother's house in Tangerang this morning, so that she could pretend to go there. Though mother nginep in you. Let me not suspect.” His mother smiled mischievously.
Nara was stunned for a moment, hearing her mother say the meeting today because Arvin asked her to come. He has done so far. To make Nara feel better.
Nara knew Arvin was willing to do anything for her, because she wanted a baby inside her stomach. In addition, because the man also does not want to feel guilty for his actions. Nara had never thought of any other motive besides that. But Arvin's statement yesterday made him doubt all the allegations against him. Nara's heart was increasingly in a dilemma.
They're done having lunch. Sit down at the table eating. Eating her mother's cooking again, made Nara even more excited and happy. Although lately he has no appetite and often nauseates to smell food. Today, thankfully, he did not experience it.
“Bu.” Call Nara when they're eating watermelon for cover. “Mother is sorry Arvin?” Further.
“At first mother was also angry and hated the same actions of Arvin. It's hard to forgive the person who did it like a mother's child. I can do things like that to you. But now I have no reason to gain sorry him.”
“Why? Arvin did evil with me. Why is it so easy mom sorry she?”
“Because he dared to apologize and take responsibility as he did. Not running or hiding. It's actually supposed to be done, but the truth is, not everyone can. With his position and family status higher than ours, Arvin can just use all that to run away from problems. But he came to the house, right? And he took good care of you until now.”
Nara admitted that everything Arvin has done to date is impressive. He does not neglect his responsibility. He could have run away, used the money to keep Nara quiet. But Arvin instead looks for it, saying it will be responsible. He also did not refuse to come when contacted. Until now she still insisted on maintaining her pregnancy and instead asked him to continue with her.
All the good things Arvin did for him. But why was his heart so hard to accept? With all the care and kindness of Arvin like that, Nara was eager to repay him. It's just that his feelings haven't moved in his direction.
“I don't love Arvin. Can't love him yet.”
“You don't need to directly love him. Start sorryin first, missing your ugly preconceived notions about Arvin. Keep starting to see the real good, which he did for you, and which not everyone is capable of doing.”
“Why do I think mommy made her so?” Nara said scowling.
“Because Mom feels she's a good boy. Despite his mistakes, Arvin is a good man. It is not easy to subdue the ego, apologize, until please begging mom so that mom can come here to see you. I didn't want to come here at first either, but Arvin kept on making out and contacted Amel. He said he needed a mother. He cares so much about you. So I have no reason to continue punishing him for his past mistakes. There is one man who has confessed so far to you, I feel you will be fine with him.”
Everything her mother said was true and reasonable. The more days his heart grew worried about Arvin. He wants to start letting go of his past and his comfort with Reza, then start with Arvin. But his heart was too scared. Arvin is very foreign to his feelings.
From the first time I knew Arvin, only bad things Nara knew. His annoying attitude, his disrespectful words, his scandals with women, and his ugly relationship with his family. Not a single bit of those things made Nara sympathize with Arvin. How could he possibly begin to link his heart to that middle-of- nowhere man?
Her mother stayed at the penthouse. Tasting good food for Arvin and Nara at dinner. I don't know since when his mother was so close to Arvin. They chatted comfortably as if all the bad things had never happened between them. Little made Nara upset, seeing that her mother could laugh and look happy. Though Arvin for Nara is still like a criminal in his life.
Arvin was like that too, laughing and smiling as if Nara's mother was his own. Though not a single smile Arvin singgihkan while in the residence of Candra and faced with Lena. She was always surly in front of her stepmother. Nara doesn't know how Arvin convinced her mother to come here. Obviously her mother had already given her heart to this shitty Arvin.
...****************...
“Bu, if until the end I do not love Arvin how?” Nara said whispering while hugging her mother in bed. They slept together again after a long time. Nara kept tightening her arms at her mother. Kiss her cheeks while she has the chance. While Arvin was left to sleep in the middle room sofa.
“Emang you want to thank your heart for whom?” I asked her while looking at Nara.
“I still love Reza.”
“Terus Reza still loves you?”
“I don't know. But I'm still with him until now.”
“Since the beginning Reza had thought to leave you, his heart was not the same you again, deck. Especially after the incident. Maybe the victory could. But make it a couple, mom hesitates. She and her family are very angry and disappointed to know you're pregnant. Never did I feel hurt like it was the same as Mother Reza said after your wedding. I don't want to have to connect again with them.”
Nara sighed and closed her eyes for a moment. He thought and studied his complicated heart. She never knew about the annulment of her marriage to Reza and the words Reza's mother had spoken at the time. His parents received all the communication. Also along with bills and costs for losses that his parents had to pay to the Reza family.
“According to Mom, Arvin is not a parent to love. You will love him for a long time. Although you have been stubborn and always steadfast as you want, but Arvin tuh.. Ck mom forgot her english what” Her mother said trying to remember, “hmmm.. lopebel.” Continue with a funny tone.
“Lovable.” Nara said correcting while laughing.
“That's right. Alluring and easy to love.”
“Because he's handsome, cool, rich?”
“Mistakenly so, but clearly he's a warm and pleasant person. I love guys like that.”
“Reza is not?”
“Reza is good, but sometimes he's a doubter. Doubt himself and others who love him. Not as brave as Arvin. I think if his work in the animal garden, he who part goes into the cage and feed the lion.”
Nara laughed at her mother's comments, “What the hell, Mom. Ga clear.”
“You know what, deck? If we are not fooled by someone, we can be avoided from something in the future. Whether it is his nature, his attitude, his trials, which maybe you will not be strong to live it. That's why Mother always pray, let you get a good soul mate and love you. My mother never mentioned whose name. It could be the person sent to you that's Arvin.”
“Emang I think I'm a match with him?”
“Can be.” Soft reply.
“Know ah. I'm ngatuk.”
Nara confirmed the position of her blanket. Peeping his mother's cheek. She fell asleep soon. The first time since staying here his sleep feels very comfortable. His heart is also very light. Maybe because there was a mother next to him. His worries disappeared immediately. But somehow in his dream only Arvin's face popped up.
