Marry Bening
Zombie Sunscreen

'I picked up today. Don't go home first! Don't go home on a ride let alone your bike!'

'Yes Mas'

'Udah eat?'

'Udah. Have you eaten the meat?'

'Udah. Thanks.'

'OKay'

After sending a message this afternoon, I rushed home to the store to pick up Bening. Fortunately, today's work is not so much. Come to think of it, since getting married my busy job is not like it used to be. A lot of free time I get even just contacting my wife like that. Though after getting married a lot of work that I received from companies and vendors who want to work with my business . However, everything feels light.

My busyness used to be possible due to the transition of self because it dissolved thinking about Erina. But, lately there is someone who makes me distract myself just to think about it all the time.

Yeah, what's wrong with me? I've never been like this with Erina before. Feelings of fear and fear when I insist on trying to deny these feelings. Until this fear created the tightness created in my chest as I thought more deeply about it.

There's no way my heart's turned to someone new this week over I'm marrying! But if indeed the Almighty has determined it, then no one has turned away from the true owner of the heart, has he not?

Right now I'm shaking where I stand. Seen from the outside the activity carried out by the two people in the store. One sweet woman who was still struggling to take care of the little boy who had been following her. Yuni, one of the store clerks waved his hand. Pamit came home because the time had shown at eight o'clock in the night. Followed by the Faith after that.

Yuni came out of the store and was about to call my wife inside when she saw me standing outside.

"Don't!" Stopped it. "Let me just."

"Oh yeah. If you'll excuse me to go home first, Mas," he said then left.

I took my phone. And the person I was waiting for arrived before I was about to call him back.

"Sorry, I'm late" he said. "Lo sure my son is here?" I'm nodding. "At this place?" Rudy could not believe it.

"Lo don't see that kid inside?" Show me back without turning my body.

"Which kid? I don't see anybody." Rudy dyed.

I turned my body upside down and there was no one inside. Where'd they?

"Yes, we're going in," I asked later.

We entered the store. The fragrant aroma of the newly finished cake in the roast slurped into the nose. Even the smell of cake and flowers on display also smell. The atmosphere is so quiet. Maybe because it was home, the rolling blind of the store was partially closed. I walked through my steps looking for the person I wanted to see soon. It feels so strange to remember that for nine months, every day, I faithfully took flower orders and cake orders mama in a hurry. This time I was watching this shop.

Sayup-dyed sounds of chatter from the kitchen room. Me and Rudy walked slowly. The figure he was looking for was there. They sit facing. Under the light of the lamp that was highlighting him made the figure shine brightly. The eye-wrenching sight. Although I do not like the figure of the child in front of him that forced my wife to continue to be cheerful behind his fatigue.

But one thing is for sure, I can't deny the beautiful scenery. They are like happy mothers and children. And I think Rudy feels what I feel. Seen from the way he looked at the two people who were busy joking and chatting.

As if I didn't want the beautiful scenery to end, it seemed like Rudy and I were doing the same thing. That is, both are silent listening to chat after chat between them. They were not aware of our presence standing in this doorway. We smile every now and then when we hear the interaction of the two. I saw Rudy's eyes sparkling happily. I haven't seen a happy expression on his face in a long time.

I clenched my hands, annoyed. Rudy is my friend and I empathize with him who lost his wife after giving birth five years ago. But she's my wife, Rud! Can't you keep that happy look of yours when you see it in front of me?

Until the conversation stopped, it caught our attention. Especially I did not accept when the boy said:

"You know, my beautiful sister became my mother and married the same papih. Papih is the same, shuka angry like om Aslam. If the beautiful sister becomes Byan's mami, papih is angry because Byan is worried as mami too,"

The boy's words made the hot blood cells run fast all over my body, wanting it to feel like I was beating him hard. But it's unethical when a grown man like me argues with a child. Rudy smiled bitterly as he looked at my expression. I think he knows how I feel. Yeah, you should know, Rud!

"Byan, papi's coming. Come home, son."

Rudy opened his voice. He finally did the right thing. The two men looked at it at the same time. Before long the two frowned. Rudy and I walked up to them. Unexpected things happen. Byan, the boy got off the chair and immediately rushed over to Bening and hugged his waist tightly. He hid. The look on his face was clear, he was so scared. That's right, that kid is Rudy's son.

Our steps stopped right in front of them. Bening's eyes showed a highlight of the question 'What's wrong?' when staring. Especially Rudy who looks shocked when he sees his son who is hiding as if asking for protection.

"Dyan..." Rudy looked frustrated. His hand was about to touch his son.

"Sister, I'm afraid..." Increasingly drowned his face on Bening's body.

"Byan, it's papi! You knew? Papi is so worried you said!" gritted Rudy held back his frustration.

"NO! EVIL SCUM! I love you Byan!"

"BYAN!" Rudy's voice rose, making the boy even more frightened. Likewise with me and Bening who are both tiptoed and flabbergasted about Rudy's harsh attitude. Cc.ck...Father and son are equally hard.

"Byan doesn't want to go home! Don't want to go home!" Byan was crying hysterically.

"St..shh..." Cuddling, calming.

"Rud recalls, don't be like that against a child. Especially the same child himself," I said trying to calm Rudy.

Well, even though I myself sometimes jutex to the boy because it caught my wife's attention. Look, Bening's expression just feels offended by my words.

"Where can I calm down, Lam? During this week I gave all the men and the police to my son's nuisance. But it turned out that there was no result!" Rudy frustrated.

"Kok, you're accusing me?" I was provoked by emotion. "You should be grateful that your child is safe with us!"

"By hiding my son for a week and you're telling me now?"

"Gue just found out he's your son!"

"Shiit pelts!"

Well, Rudy is totally outrageous. You know I shouldn't have told her son was here.

"I don't know thank you, yeah. It is still fortunate that your son survived. I don't know what it would be if it wasn't Bening who found your son! In order to protect your son, he fell off the bike and was injured. Every day, during this week, he plays the role of kayak nyokap your child without caring about himself. Lo's spoiled and often sulky child makes my bini time seized. In fact, my bonyok ampe acts like a grandfather and grandmother just for the sake of children who do not know their origins. And look at yourself, look! Bini I'm willing to endure his fatigue just for the sake of your child feel happy!" I'm nyeroscos non-stop. Feeling upset about Rudy's attitude that is frustrated but blaming.

"Mas, I'm happy, really. And don't feel tired," argued Bening feel bad if Byan misunderstood.

"Shut up and don't dodge anymore! If CAPEK says CAPEK! Why should I feel bad about that kid? What is he your son?!" I snapped, making Bening close his hands to Byan's ears.

It is true, emotions make us dark eyes and can not keep the words. It is in the heart, it is what comes out. All prejudice just happens. Not caring about the feelings of others and around.

For the first time, after all this time, it was probably the longest sentence I spoke without thinking. Emotions rule the soul so without thinking that I express what I have been feeling and I have been feeling. If it's like this, I'm just as hard on that father and son.

"Byan, um sorry. But please you better go home now as well as you who don't know yourself!" Because of my anger I forgot how to behave with a child.

"Mas!" Bening glared at me.

"Byan, come home now!"

Rudy pulled the Byan who kept clinging to Bening. I think he felt bad about the debate that followed. From her expression, Rudy looked annoyed that I was snapping at Bening. Hey, why are you angry?

"WILL NOT! I don't want to! EVIL SCUM! Papi don't love Byan!"

"BYAN, danger papi! You have to go home! Or papi will send you to an eyeang house in Surabaya." Rudy threatened.

Bening's body twitched because Byan would not let go of his hand to hug. While Rudy who continues to force Byan to be separated from his protection.

"AWW!"

The activity came to a halt when Bening hit Rudy's hand with a plastic spatula on the table. Rudy squealed in shock even if it was small but allowed his hand to feel agonized by the spatula punch. I also saw myself when I saw it.

"Don't be rude to a child, Om!" Bening clutched tightly to Byan in his arms. Not to forget the spatula he still holds, just in case if Rudy forces Byan again.

"So why hit papih?" Byan stopped crying seeing Bening hit Rudy. The boy was still paying attention to the father who did not know himself.

"Hehe, sorry. My brother accidentally. I thought there was a zombie trying to kidnap Byan."

Byan looked at his father's face. Rudy was just gawking when Bening called him a zombie. I can only hold my laughter.

"Zombies?"

"Yes, zombie kidnap kids."

"But, the Byan papih is handsome. Not bad as a zombie."

Look at that innocent and adorable kid, Rudy! What did you do so soon that Byan was so afraid of you? Rudy should be able to feel how much love from Byan for him. Even the boy defended her.

"Yes, a handsome zombie can use sunscreen."

"Sanklin?" Byan.

My God, what my wife said made the little boy in front of her confused. Let alone Byan, me and Rudy who heard it were confused. I don't understand what he's talking about. But one thing is for sure, as much as we can - me and Rudy - hold back a smile that carves the corners of our lips when we hear what Bening has to say.

"Forget it!" Bening wagged his hand then rubbed the hair of Byan's head fondly. "Byan handsome...are you really not kangen same papi? It's been a week, you know. papi is looking for Byan. Kasian papi, he's lonely there's no handsome boy at home," he said softly later.

"Kangen, but papih is not kangen Byan. Just now, papih got angry..."

"Kalo papi is not kangen, why papi looking for Byan? Inget no, what did you say earlier? If people get angry at us for some reason it's a sign?"

"That person is worried about us because he is worried about us" Byan said.

"Good job!" Elusan dear landed on Byan's head.

"Of Aslam who likes to be angry Kak-kak, umptt..." Bening immediately smothered Byan's mouth and then grinned at me.

"Om Aslam what, Byan?" I asked to make both of them stiffen. "What did Brother Bening say about Aslam?"

Byan looked at me and then looked at Bening. The two people actually looked adorable when feeling nervous like that. Though clearly me and Rudy heard all their conversations earlier.

Yes, I just want to test and tease him :)
