MARRYING OLD GRANDPA

MARRYING OLD GRANDPA
LOOKOUT


The space paced back and forth, the day was getting dark, but Esta had not yet returned home. His heart began to unsettle, from this afternoon he was looking for Esta, but he could not find the girl anywhere. The slap she slapped on the girl's cheek kept haunting her, making her feel guilty and sorry.


"Where are you Esta?" He murmured, "Did I follow you to Bu'de's house? But how am I gonna deal with Bu'de if Esta's not there?"


Angkasa's anxiety was increasingly raised when considering Esta did not know very well the ins and outs of the city of Jakarta, the girl also did not know very well the way to her home.


"My bodo time is at omelin Bu'de!" He decides to find Esta at Bu'de's house. Regarding Bu'de's reaction, he'll think about it later.


He took the car keys, then darted out of the room to look for Esta. Fortunately he did not meet his mother or father, there were not many questions he got from them about his daughter-in-law who had not returned.


The man drove the car slowly, who knows Esta had arrived around the complex but the girl could not get in given the tight security applied in the complex. Moreover, Esta does not have an ID that is commonly used for access to enter there.


His eyes squinted as he passed the park not far from the residential complex, "Esta?" The air breathed a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to see Bu'de. He doesn't want Bu'de to worry if he finds out Esta isn't around.


Esta who had been sitting there an hour ago was staring at the green grass that was beginning to be invisible because it was dark. The remains of tears seemed to have almost dried up on both of her cheeks. Complete had his misfortune today, afternoon in the slap of the husband, he was also tired because of a lot of work, when he came home he could not enter the complex because he did not have an ID, he was also tired, two guards there would not allow him to enter the elite housing complex. Let alone looking at Esta's appearance, the two guards were increasingly doubtful of her. Because there are no residents of the complex who look shabby down from public transportation or online ojek.


Living there not too long ago, Esta was not well recognized. Therefore Esta decided to walk down the street even though she did not know where the destination was going. And looking at the park area, Esta also covered there, counting to calm down and continue crying.


The girl gasped when suddenly there was someone sitting on her right, she turned her head, even more jolted when she found her husband who was sitting there.


"I'm looking for you, you're here."


Esta did not reply, considering how hard the man slapped, her heart ached again. Ari his eyes back together, Esta never felt this kind of wound.


Finding Esta silent, Angkasa let out a long sigh. He then turned to look at Esta who looked sad, "I'm sorry, Esta. I really don't mean it, I don't like you saying goodbye."


Esta turned her head, looking at Space sharply. His eyes began to water again, "Perse me! You haven't officially married me either, have you? You just have to say it!"


"Esta!" At the touch of space, his emotions re-ignited. He had just said he didn't like it when the girl was talking about separation, but the girl asked for a divorce.


"Why sir? Not a difficult thing, is it? We don't love each other, it's not me you want, it's another woman. I don't want you to be overwhelmed and feel responsible for it!"


Esta even returned to using her formal language, making Angkasa clench his hands firmly so that he did not return to make mistakes.


"I said I don't like you saying goodbye! Didn't you hear?!"


They stared at each other, many words Esta wanted to say, it felt mixed. Wanting to berate, wanting to be angry, wanting to rebel, wanting to express all the pain he received for the man's treatment, but his tongue was just a hoax.


"We're home!" Said Angkasa firmly, he grabbed Esta's hand and pulled her to let the girl obey her words.


"Please me! I don't want to live with a man who can't escape the shadow of his past! Cape mas, why is this marriage preserved if I fight alone? Do you think my heart is not hurting? I'm your wife, if you were me, how would you feel when your husband ignored you and was busy with his past memories?!" Sentak Esta's.


Space stopped her steps, she turned her head, looked at Esta looking for something she wanted to make sure of, and she asked, "You love me?"


"Love or not, what is important to you? Even though I do not love you, but I am your wife mas, which wife willing her husband's heart is still for another woman? Which wife would willingly see her husband busy lamenting his past? I don't think there is any mas! Including me, I don't want to survive alone."


The sky softened, the originally sharp gaze now began to dim, it turned out that he hurt not only his wife's body, but also his heart.


"We're talking about this at home, okay? Please.." the door.


Esta turned her face away, wiping her tears with origin.


"I beg you, Esta. Let's go home first, ok!"


Slowly Esta nodded, resignedly as Angkasa clasped her hand and took her to the car.


Along the way, they didn't talk to each other. Esta was busy wiping away the tears that kept on dripping, while Angkasa was busy with her guilt towards the girl.


Until he got home, Angkasa stopped his car right in front of the main door. He turned his head as Esta put on a mask to cover part of her face. Recalling the slap he gave the girl, Angkasa then held Esta's hand as Esta was about to open the car door.


"Replace.."


Esta turned her head, the girl's sad gaze making Angkasa feel even more guilty. Slowly Angkasa reopened the mask that Esta had been wearing, she was surprised when it turned out that the girl's cheeks were swollen, she just realized it.


"Your cheeks.." His words stopped as he was about to touch Esta's cheek but the girl brushed him off and turned her face away.


Space is increasingly in the midst of guilt and regret. Especially when Esta returned to wearing her mask, maybe the girl did not want the house people to know her condition.
