After her husband left for work, after Silvy had been picked up to go to work with her husband, after Mak Mun had finished cleaning the dining room and cleaning, the big house became quiet again. Mak Mun lives in the kitchen, and Rini is alone in the living room watching the television broadcast.
"Tuliliiing .... Tuliliiing tuloliliiii ...." Rini's phone rang. Anik, his high school friend called.
"Hello, Anik? What's up, huh?" rini said as she picked up the phone.
"Hey, Rini .... How's things? It's healthy, right?" ask Anik.
"Alhamdulillah, healthy Nik. That's good." answered Rini.
"Eh, Rin .., this I want to ask, Yudi HP number why can not be contacted, yes? Every time the phone can come in, but it never lifted" said Anik.
"Sorry, Nik .., yes said my son, HP Yudi was missing. Yesterday my son had a picnic to Jogja, including to the tourist village of Yudi. The tour driver in the village said, HP Mas Yudi could not be contacted, lost while out of town. That's why I can't be reached." answered Rini a little lie.
"Oi .... That's why it never gets lifted. Yes, Rin .... Thanks, yes." said Anik who ended his phone.
Rini was relieved from her guilt when giving Yudi's HP number to her friend. He was also worried that Yudi was angry who hit the target must be him. Only he knows that number.
As reminded of Yudi, suddenly Rini wanted to contact that coveted person. But his feelings are afraid to contact. There is a rumble of longing that wants to be expressed, but the walls of shame also dammed blocking the overflow of kangen taste. What is the difference between longing and shame?
It turns out that Rini's longing can no longer be dammed. Finally, the soft fingers dragged the HP screen, calling out the number of the person who was missed. Yudi.
"Good morning, Rini .... How are you, healthy right?" the voice that had been fixed in the heart was heard in the HP that was stuck in his ear. It feels good to hear that greeting.
"Morning, Yudi .... Thanks to Yudi's prayer, I was well. Yudi's fine, right?" rini replied.
"Thankful .... How's Silvy doing?" ask Yudi.
"Iih, who was asked directly Silvy. Like his son?" sahut Rini's.
"Yes yes .... Jealousy huh?" yudi Goda.
"Iih ..., why jealous of his own son." denied Rini.
"Yes .., who knows .... hehe ..." said the seductive Yudi.
"Eh, Yud .., Rini wanted to apologize, yesterday I slipped and gave Yudi number to Anik. But I told you Yudi's HP was gone. Hopefully not to contact Yudi again, yes." explained Rini.
"Yes, Rin. No need to think about .... Later it will become a burden on Rini's mind. I can sort out the call, really." replied Yudi who was calm. This is the kind of nature that Rini loves.
"Thank you, Yudi .... You are always understanding, that makes my heart helpless before you" said Rini.
"Don't be too complimentary, Rin .., I'll be a big head." said Yudi.
"Judy, may I ask you a question?" said Rini.
"About what?" ask Yudi.
"Did Yudi think of Silvy as his own son?" ask Rini.
"Yes .., if that is permitted by his mother. Well, now I'm asking, maybe, no?" sahut Yudi's.
"You are too good, Jud. Then if it is allowed to be his son, Yudi can mamahnya, is that it?" ask Rini teasingly.
"At least I can be close to his son. Well, for the inner bond, like that approx." explains Yudi.
"Hopefully so. Hehe ..." Yudi replied more seductively.
"Ih, it's good ..." said Rini.
"Will Rini?" tanya Yudi framed.
"Yes, is .... Hehe ..." said the happy Rini.
"Real ..." seduced by Yudi.
"Eh, Yud .., yesterday Silvy story, he said Yudi made a painting about the two of us, is it true?" ask Rini.
"Sorry, Rin .., I missed you too much. That painting is an impingement of my heart. My soul's expression. I didn't think that if a guest came to my house, it turned out that guest was Silvy your son. And I'm sorry when I had to lie when I told Silvy that the painting was Rini's order." said Yudi.
"So far the painting is not given to the order, but to be exhibited first?" sergeant Rini.
"One more time I'm sorry, Rini .... That's just my excuse to hide the painting. I kept that painting. I was worried that if the painting asked Silvy to take home, if Mas Hamdan knew, how angry would he be? I'm afraid to ruin Mas Hamdan, Rin. I don't want to destroy your family, Rin ..... So frankly, I do not allow the painting to be taken to Jakarta." explained Yudi.
"Yes, Jud. I get your point. But please keep the painting well. Don't let anyone know. I don't want anyone to know our relationship" Rini said.
"Hoooh, Rini. That is why I ask permission, let Silvy regard me as his papa, to strengthen the sense of kinship, so that I am not solely close to you. Likewise with Mas Hamdan, I will maintain a good relationship with him. I don't want my secret exposed by anyone." Yudi next said.
"Yudi, tomorrow someday if you talk to Silvy again, I beg Yudi to be careful in talking. The boy's smart, Yud. I'm afraid he'll investigate our relationship. Yesterday after coming home from Jogja, he had already been searching for me about our relationship. He even asked if we had ever dated. I'm scared, Yud. If the child knew it would surely hate his mother and his new papa. Hating you, Yud." Rini's message to Yudi.
"Belgium, Rin .... Yesterday Silvy asked me that too. I just replied, we are very close friends. Hopefully Silvy can understand." said Yudi.
"Judi, frankly I don't want to hurt your feelings anymore, I don't want to add any more wounds to your heart. I know how much you love me. I know how much you sacrifice for me. I know the persistence of your heart to maintain that love. I'm just like you, Yudi. But this is all done. Like the word, rice has become porridge, let us not add to the problem again. Don't let my family know about our relationship. Yudi, I beg you to keep this matter a secret together. This is our secret. I'm scared, Yudi .... Afraid Mas Hamdan knows, afraid Silvy knows .... They'll be mad at us. Please Yudi understand my situation. Yudi should know my position as the wife of my husband, as the mother of my son. Don't let them hate us, Jud .... Once again I beg you, Yud .., please keep all this a secret" said Rini who then shed tears.
Yudi silently did not answer. Confused what to say. Long, long time. His mind was already unable to respond to Rini's words. Yudi felt that the words were intentional so that he began to stay away, so that his secret would not be revealed. Yudi shock.
Rini was silent too. His words have been gushed out. Nothing more to say.
Two different people that place, holding each other's HP, stuck to each other's ears, close to each other's mouths. But the thoughts of the two men, far away were from his seat. Far from their respective locations. Wandering in the clouds, without any clarity of what is thought. The two men, a half-century man and woman, are contemplating his fate, about the growth of a love without romance that is shackled by circumstances.
"Thud .... Rini's mother ...?! Mother .... Rini's mother?!" Mak Mun called his master.
"Eh, Mak Mun ...?!" Rini is shocked by the appearance of Mak Mun in front of her.
"Mom's okay? Healthy mom? Is anyone sick again? What's wrong, Mom, crying?" asked Mak Mun who saw his mistress sadly shed tears on the living room sofa.
"It's okay, Mak Mun .... Just a little limp." replied Rini.
"O, yes if it's okay. I'd better take a break in the room. Later I make lemon tea warm, let it be fresh again" said Mak Mun advised his employer.
"Yes, Mak Mun. Thank you, yes." said Rini who immediately stood up, stepping towards the room.
Meanwhile, in Jogja, Yudi who was sitting speechless did not answer his phone, was suddenly startled by his friend who was sitting next to him falling from his seat. The friend who fell down immediately hit the seat occupied by Yudi. Finally, Yudi fell out of his chair. Two people who had fallen from the chair were rolling on the floor.
"Hahaha ..." His friends were not helpful, but were laughing.
"Apes ..., apes ..." so said Yudi faced his misfortune.
