I Found Love With You
63. Dispart

Rostita's waiting at the front gate. From a distance, Rostita had seen the car carrying Sadiyah.

“Bah, Abah..Iyah has arrived.” Rostita called Darmawan who was watering flowers in the backyard.

As soon as the car Aep was driving stopped in front of the gate, Sadiyah directly got out of the car and splashed into Rostita's arms.

In Rostita's arms, Sadiyah's cries broke again.

“Let's go to the house. Auntie has prepared my favorite meal. I'm hungry, right?” Rostita led Sadiyah into the house. He continued to embrace Sadiyah.

“Iya, Bi. Bi Ita cook anything?” Sadiyah asked in a sobbing voice. Rostita wiped the remaining tears that were still on Sadiyah's cheek.

“Bi Ita cook many likes Iyah. There are vegetable lodeh, fried gurame, karedok, corn parchment, and sambel. Sambelnya also have sambal mucang sama sambal kecap.”

Hearing the list of names of dishes mentioned by Rostita made Sadiyah swallow her saliva.

“Dad laper bang, Bi.” back of his hand shrank snot coming out of his nose.

“Have not been crying continuously, tuh snotnya much out like a child only.” Goda Rostita.

“Biarin atuh, Bi. His name is also out crying, must be a lot of snot.” Sadiyah let go of her embrace.

“Wash his hands first keep directly eating. After a new meal clean yourself.”

“Siap, Bi.” Sadiyah's heart has begun to calm after meeting with Bibi who is already considered as her mother. The feeling of longing for his parents was slightly treated with a hug from Rostita.

“Neng, this is Mamang make ginger water. Mak Isah said that Neng was vomiting. Drink the water first so that his body warm.”

“Nuhun, Mang.” Sadiyah received a glass of warm ginger water from Darmawan and immediately gulped it slowly until it ran out.

“Where, have you got your stomach?” ask Rostita

“Already Bi, now Iyah stomach very rumbling, Iyah want to eat. Iyah already kangen the same cuisine Bi Ita.”

“Drink first water.” Rostita had a glass of warm water which was also directly stirred to the toilet by Sadiyah. Then he took the warm rice and fried the fish along with the soy sauce sambal and ate with his hands. After the fry of the fish runs out, Sadiyah immediately continues to hold karedok with crackers. After his karedok was finished, vegetable lodeh was devoured.

“That's great, Bi.” Sadiyah rubbed her full stomach.

“His head is still dizzy? Her stomach is still nauseous?” ask Rostita worriedly.

“No, Bi. Now Iyah sleepy, want to sleep first.”

“Do not go to sleep directly. You just ate, you want to go to sleep. Not good.” advice Rostita.

“Daddy want to rest first in the room ya Bi. Quit praying new dzuhur Iyah sleep.”

“As of you only.”

After the dzuhur prayer, Sadiyah really went to sleep. His eyes were no longer able to withstand the drowsiness. Since last night he could not sleep and a few days after the incident Natasha who sent photos and recordings of Kagendra's voice, Sadiyah's sleep was never restful.

Now, he was comfortable in the middle of his family, his body gave up and fell asleep until the afternoon.

“Neng, wake. It's afternoon.” Rostita shook Sadiyah's arm gently.

“What time, Bi?”

“Half hour five. Wake up first and pray.”

Sadiyah immediately woke up from her sleep and went to the bathroom to wash her face and take ablution.

********

Iyah, sorry Aa just told you. From the airport was dawn directly meet clients and meetings. It just finished the meeting. You still sick? Have you eaten yet?

Kagendra sent a text message.

Thank God that Aa has arrived there. Aa didn't miss her eating schedule, did she?

Aa just ate this. I haven't eaten yet.

There was a message coming in from an unknown number. Sadiyah opened the message and read the message.

You blocked my number, but I'm going to keep sending you pictures that should make you realize you don't mean anything to Kagendra.

Sadiyah saw photos of Kagendra and Natasha together at an airport. His chest again felt pain and tightness when he saw the photos of Natasha who was hugging Kagendra's arm with affection.

Your husband said what are you? Tell him he's gone to work. You wrong. We were on vacation together. These photos are proof of our togetherness.

Sadiyah did not reply to the message from the unknown number. Then sent a text message to Kagendra asking one question that Sadiyah hoped Kagendra would answer honestly. This was his last hope, if Kagendra did not honestly answer one last question from him then he would completely close his heart to Kagendra.

Going to Thailand with anyone?

The message was not answered by Kagendra. After two hours passed, Kagendra only returned a message from Sadiyah.

Aa to Thailand with only Rudi. I'm sorry Aa just answered the message because the client here called Aa and just finished just now.

Actually Kagendra said honestly, he went to Thailand only with Rudi. It's just that Natasha and her assistant learned of Kagendra's departure and soon followed and were lucky to get the same plane despite sitting far away.

Kagendra does not expect Natasha's presence and questions why Natasha is on the same flight as him. But Natasha is intrigued that she has a job in the same country that Kagendra is aiming for.

When he landed at the International Airport in Thailand, Natasha was the aggressive one who approached and spoiled Kagendra. Unbeknownst to Kagendra, Natasha's assistant takes a moment featuring the intimacy between Kagendra and Natasha with her cell phone camera.

When he did not get a reply from Sadiyah, Kagendra sent another text message.

Is he asleep?

There was no reply from Sadiyah.

Aa is also sleeping. Tomorrow morning, Aa call you.

Kagendra also began to close his eyes, resting his tired body after a day full of meetings with several clients.

********

The next morning, Sadiyah opened her phone and got some text messages from Kagendra that had not been read.

“Basic liar.” rutuk Sadiyah after reading reply message from Kagendra.

Just as Sadiyah closed the chat app on her phone, a new notification appeared on her phone screen.

Yeah, hon. What day is your agenda? Today I want to review the location. Yesterday Aa had a chance to see the location for the advertisement. Nature is so good. We'll have a honeymoon here.

Now Kagendra did not hesitate to add the word dear to Sadiyah.

“Cih...” Grunts Sadiyah.

Today I want to rest at home. My body is still not good.

You still nauseous? If Aa was next to Iyah, it would be Aa incandescent again.

Sadiyah threw her phone on the bed upset by Kagendra's insincere and pretentious words.

“Basic male jerk, liar, liar. I hate it so much. Now just say dear baby just to cover up his lies. Iyah hate the guy whose name is Kagendra.” Sadiyah hit the pillow as if it had a face like Kagendra.

Honey, Aa wants to go first. Later that night we continue to talk. Hopefully the work is done before you go to bed, so Aa can call you.

Sadiyah picked up the phone and read a new message from Kagendra.

“Bodo highly.” shouted Sadiyah.
