...—------ o0o —--------...

For some time, Ravi and Johanna fell silent while enjoying their own dishes. I don't know, after thinking about the last conversation earlier, the atmosphere between the two suddenly stiffened.

"After this, you go straight home, don't you, Han?" tanya Ravi reopened the conversation after finishing her meal. Just making small talk because he already knew the girl's plan.

"Yes, Mas" replied Johanna in short. Without expression or deign to look at the interlocutor. Even now busy playing drinks with straw still attached to the lips.

The girl is still embarrassed by —ceplosan— his expression earlier. Many times he cursed himself. How can you not control yourself. Even though they are so familiar, such a joke is not worth doing.

"Hhmmm, so it's a bit difficult, if you want to meet you now," said Ravi fishing. "Not as easy as yesterday. He-he."

"Ah, the hell time?" timpal Johanna while throwing a thin smile. "It's normal, really. Kayak who has. The proof now can be, nih."

For a moment the conversation stopped. Ravi asked permission to check the notification balloon on his phone. All he wants to see is if Sarah has re-opened the block.

[P]

The man sent a check message. Still tick one in gray. There are two possibilities between still being blocked or Sarah's phone being off. To be contacted again like that, not good with the existence of Johanna who was in front of him. So, without realizing Ravi was upset.

Johanna watched the man carefully. Occasionally steal glances and murmur in the heart. 'Actually what is the problem between Mas Ravi and his wife? How, I often met them on marahan like that? If I think, quarrels in the household are natural, but with such frequency often, certainly not a common thing in the relationship of the two of them.'

"My number is still blocked the same Sarah, Han," complained Ravi suddenly and hurriedly Johanna turned her gaze the other way. "I-I ... earlier .. actually want to contact Sarah, but can't."

Johanna took a deep breath. It was very difficult to feel and be concerned about the condition of his friend's household. 

"Maybe Sarah is still angry with Mas Ravi" she said, trying to respond. Want to come to comment feel reluctant, but over time so also curious to make. "But .. if I think, yes, just because of the grabbing of the car, the attitude of Mas Ravi and Mbak Sarah to all?" Finally Johanna revealed as well.

The man raised his face from his gaze towards the phone earlier. Then smiled wryly. "You don't know Sarah's character yet, Han," he said, sounding like he was grieving. "I myself who became her husband, sometimes confused, kudu how ngadepin women like my wife that."

"Yes, I don't know your wife, Mas" Johanna said fiercely. "It's natural dong, if my assessment of Mas Ravi's wife can't be completely true."

Ravi snorts. His breathing was heavy. Either because of the burden of the problem or there are other things.

"May I ask you something, Mommy?" Johanna tried to vent to extract some information about the man. "But if Mas Ravi feels objected to memjawab, yaaa .. I appreciate Mas's right."

Reply Ravi spontaneously, "Oh, don't dong, Han. I have long wished you that I was like that. He-he." His voice sounded bland and forced. "Ask aja. I'm the guy, relax, all right."

'I wish I was Mas Ravi all this time, huh? Hi-hi-hi, ' Johanna thought. 'Means ..emang bener, he wants there to confide in him to reveal the problem.'

"But I'm sorry, if my question is a bit of privacy, Mas," said the girl again still a bit disinclined bluntly.

"Yes. Just relax, Han. I don't mind, though." The man's speech style now looks more flexible. Maybe because of his intention from the beginning to meet with Johanna, it can be a little conveyed. "What do you want?"

Johanna took a deep breath. Still accompanied by doubt, he asked the question with great caution. "Uummhhh, does Mas Ravi love Sister Sarah? Duh, I'm so sorry, Mom? How, I'm so presumptuous of this nanyain as you are. He-he."

There was no expression of surprise or how from the man's attitude. He still looked relaxed in response to the question from the figure before him. With a smile, Ravi said, "Oohhh? He-he. It's okay, Han. I'm the same you're like a temen deket. Relax just 'ngkali. He-he-he."

"I'm sorry, Mom," Johanna said. "I'm not feeling good, huh."

"Yes, that's okay" replied Ravi. "Lagian .. I also really want to reveal all that I have been watching all this time as you. Uh, I mean ... sharing 'that's how. Sarah and you are both women. So yes ... at least understand about the character of the Eve is like 'gimana, 'gitu. This is ... Maybe, yeah? Probability. Doesn't mean I mean everybody."

"I understand, Mas," said the girl a little less uncomfortable feeling over the sassness earlier.

'Hhmmm, I expected, ' Johanna murmured. "Sampe now?" tanyanya.

Ravi nodded slowly. "Yes, until now. I've never been able to love Sarah completely. But I also hope that one day I will be able to love him completely."

"Why is that, Mum?" Johanna curious. 

The man snorted loudly. "With Sarah's attitude like that, how could she possibly be the figure of the wife I dreamed of, Han? Yes, just imagine yourself, when someone approaches you, but no one is able to attract your heart to that person. How do you feel, Han? I really don't want to speculate, because everyone's judgment must be different, dong. He-he-he."

"Nobody interested you in your wife now?" asked Johanna again trying to pry the contents of her friend's heart. 

"I admit, there is. But not much" answered Ravi honestly. "So physically .. Sarah is beautiful, really. Frankly, I love her beauty." He sipped some water before saying. "In a man's instinct .. sorry, yes .. Sarah is able to arouse my biological needs. For that matter, it is normal. He-he."

"Yes, I get it, Mas" said Johanna. According to him, most men will indeed see the physical related as the main foundation when they feel attracted to the opposite sex. That's normal as Ravi said.

"Just .. the character, nature, or behavior that he has that often makes me feel uncomfortable when with him. So, it feels 'how, yes .. anyway I feel not at home to linger on my wife's deck, Han."

"Mas sure of that? There's not one?"

Ravi shakes. "I don't know, Han. Anyway, from the beginning I knew, which I caught about Sarah .. yaa .. the person was stubborn, careless, and selfish."

"Keep if you already know the character Ma'am Sarah like that, why would Mas Ravi still want to marry Ms Sarah?" johanna asked in surprise.

"I don't know, Han," replied Ravi. "What was on my mind at that time was .. I just wanted my mom to be happy if I married the woman Mama chose. There's no other choice."

"Hhmmm, if in that matter, I myself do not want to intervene in Mas's choice, huh? After all, you want to say whatever, the wedding has happened," Johanna said also felt sad. "Before you know Sister Sarah, did Mas ever have someone special for Mas?"

Ravi shakes. "I-I've never dated, Han."

"Aahhh .. I mean not that, but—"

"By heart, I've never been in love, either, Han," Ravi said. "I don't know what it's like (to fall in love). But if you just admire, yes. Not to make me feel 'gimanaa' that."

"Never been in love? Seriously, Mas?" johanna asked in disbelief.

Ravi replies, "I don't know what falling in love is like, Han. But .. I'm normal, really. I'm straight." He looked down, holding his head with both hands. "Since my teenage years, I have always been close to my mother and she has always warned me not to date before marriage. That I fulfilled. I don't have female friends, I rarely hang out with women, even .. Until now, I still often feel nervous about being with a woman I just met."

Johanna was mangosteen and immediately remembered how Ravi's attitude when he first met her in the clinic first. The man looked awkward and funny to her. Maybe that's why, the girl thought.

"I've never known a woman, except my own mother" Ravi said. "Everywhere, ever since I got to know you, I wish I could learn about women from you, Han. My courage to tell stories like this is also .. just the same as you."

Ravi looked down deeply. Suddenly she felt so embarrassed and inferior before Johanna. Honestly, it's been a long time actually want to reveal the unek-unyeknya. But doubt and fear often haunt.

"Maasss ..." call the girl slowly. "I'm sorry, huh? Maybe because of my question earlier, you're forced to reveal this is all the same to me."

The man raised his head, looking at Johanna. He said later, "No, Han. You're not wrong anything. It's purely because of my fault. I-I can't control my emotions. I-I am so grateful to you. Because ... Because of you too, my burden is slightly reduced. I honestly admit, I've never said this to any woman, including my mom. I-i .. a-i …."

"B-but .. you still love your wife, don't you?" johanna asked with feelings. 

Slowly Ravi raised his face again. Staring into Johanna's eyes deeply. "Sarah knows what my weakness would be if we arrived .. decided to .. split up" the man said without answering the girl's question.

"Astaghfirullahal'adziim," Johanna murmured as she covered her mouth with her palm, astonished. He immediately turned his gaze away from Ravi's gaze. I don't know, as an adult woman, the sparkling biases on the man's eyeballs, it felt a little different to him. That figure in front was not the form of the man he had first known. Shy, funny, or often misbehaved.

He is ... he is ... he is ….

...SERIATE...
