Miss Alexa
The True Story

After the Fajr Salat, as usual Laras immediately began his activities in the kitchen, this time the God is still sleeping. He had to make breakfast for the workers who would harvest the rice belonging to Bu Seno.

"Who came last night?" asked Bu Seno who came to help Laras in the kitchen. The middle-aged woman already considered Laras like her daughter. In fact, he had also thought about and prepared a future for the Gods.

"Sir Tono, Ma'am. He only told me if tomorrow there is a posyandu in the RW hall." Laras replied still by cutting vegetables.

"Every night Kang Asep cried out to call you he said something was nyari. I'll just go find you in Salma's room." said Ms. Seno before she searched the room for Alexa.

"Later after sending food to the rice fields, Laras directly to the RW hall." The barrel sentence made Bu Seno nod to say yes.

"I think Mr. Tono is paying attention to you, Ras." This time Bu Seno wanted to know the feeling of Laras in the three-boiled widower.

"It's normal, Mom. For the God Baras is the priority of the Baras. All of Bu Seno's help is more than enough to help me raise the Gods" said Laras who did not have any plans for his life except God.

"You're young, you're beautiful too, Race. You have the right to build your own future and happiness." The sentence Bu Seno stopped the movement of Laras. Suddenly he remembered Agam.

How are you, Gam?

Only that question could now only be muttered in his heart. There was still a man in there who filled his first love. Although, he was aware that it was likely that Agam had already found someone who could give him happiness.

"I'm sorry, Ras. I just want you to be happy to move on with your life, and find the right person." continued Ms. Seno when she saw Laras wiping a drop of water coming out of the corner of her eye. Baras never cried, but the woman next to him knew if there was a wound in the corner of his heart that he might not be able to tell.

The barrel is a little closed to his personal affairs. He doesn't want to talk about anything. Though in the heart of Gendis, the woman was not willing if Laras welcomed the attention of Mr. Tono. Laras deserves better, as parents expect good for their daughter.

"I'm fine, Mom." Suddenly, Alexa's voice was heard in the kitchen.

"You're still sick, Ay. Don't be too pushy." said Shakti. The argument, heard in the dining room.

"You if you say it continues to argue. You're different from the old one, Ay. Now you're hard to say!" Shakti was already emotional with Alexa's attitude that did not heed her request. The man hopes Alexa rest to be able to heal quickly and he can immediately bring Alexa on the way to the villa.

Alexa was silent, her throat felt so full that she had to swallow her saliva with difficulty.

"You're sorry, Mas? I am like this. I'm not forcing you to marry me either." The phrase Alexa sounds smoothed full of suppressors. It felt like his heart wanted to cry. Yes, he felt Shakti could not accept the one bad side of his nature that sometimes is alot.

Seeing Alexa's face flushed with glassy eyes, Shakti was sure Alexa wanted to cry. Perhaps, just the sentence just now offended his wife.

"It looks like Salma is crying, ma'am." whispered Laras by sharpening his hearing. Laras can understand because since knowing Alexa, he knows, if the girl with soft temper sometimes spoiled.

"Leave it. New couples are always noisy to win their egos. After that will also be hugged again." continued Bu Seno by wrapping food that will be brought to the rice field. Baras smiled too. It would be like that if you had a partner.

Laras had already brought a large bag of food and drinks to the rice fields. From inside the house, it appears that Shakti is trying to persuade Alexa who looks sullen. They are now sitting in the front yard.

"You guys eat breakfast first. Later it will be cold, gih." said Laras when passing the couple who are still not reconciled. The woman then walked towards the rice field while the sun was still too embarrassed to show itself.

"Did I tell you, at least I helped Madam Laras make breakfast. Not just eat. Not good, Kan?" alexa grumbled without seeing Shakti who just looked at him without answering him.

"Ay. "persuade Shakti. But it still does not make Alexa flinch. When his small hand will be taken by Shakti makes Alexa immediately pull his hand with nimble.

In a fairly foreign city, Agam searched for Laras after the address he had requested from his mother.

A slightly smaller town. The man, who was not tired, got out of the car and asked where exactly the address was on the paper he was carrying.

He returned to his car, after getting a little hint if the address he was heading to was around the market on the edge of the city.

Whether it was because of fatigue or something else, his heart was beating so fast, it was dusty inside his chest. At midnight, he arrived at a crowded market. He stopped his car in front of a simple food stall crowded with visitors.

The man who currently looked so tired had finally gotten into it. In addition to filling his stomach that has been ringing since he can also rest by asking the address sought.

Agam ordered rice pecel and warm tea. In the shop there is only a simple menu, because the majority who come to eat the traders and market workers.

"Sir, know this address?" Agam looked for an opportunity to ask when it was as if the waiter had come to bring his order.

The father was silent for a moment by observing Agam. Agam is handsome, tall stature, white skin, sharp nose and looks different from people who usually stop by.

"Sir. "the greeting of Agam broke the old man's daydream.

"His mother doesn't know yet? If the house is empty for a long time." explained the father.

"I mean father?" Agam instantly drowned. His only hope is Laras' parents who are reportedly returning home.

"His owner is dead. And her pregnant son went away and disappeared, until now she never came back and no word." It feels like Agam lost all his energy. Her chest feels tight. Pregnant laras?

"Did the girl go with her husband?" investigate Agam with a strong rustling taste in his bloodstream. Yeah, he's a little disappointed. But, if Laras gets married maybe he's already happy.

"He was pregnant but had no husband. Maybe embarrassed, Mom. That's why he left."

"If the people want to find out the truth, just ask the house near the mosque painted green behind this shop. Masnya, through the alley next door, enter about seven meters." Seeing Agam without reaction the father also left a man who could only sit.

Pregnant laras? And not married? That means the child in her womb is my son.

There is no news more painful for Agam except this news. His body seemed to be thrown away until it was difficult to move but his heart rippled violently to withstand the pain that was difficult to express. The man was unable to hold back a drop of water that forced it out of the corner of his eye.

Barrels. Guilt towards the girl now rose in his heart.

Seriate....
