Episode 69


"Where are we going?" nisa looked back at me.


"If I follow you" I said.


Nisa seemed to think for a moment. "Hot-hot mending don't play out door, mending we just snack, how?" he said make a proposal.


"OK, good idea," said Vera then turned the car's steering wheel to turn the direction.


The clock was already showing at half eleven in the afternoon when we arrived at the mall. The atmosphere is not so crowded because today is a normal day, although there are some students who are in some of these places. And I'm sure they're truant.


"An, even hum!" reprimand Vera who patted my shoulder.


I smiled and looked at him. "Son, I just saw some of those high school kids over there. Just like we used to be. And I'm sure they must have skipped school" I said, and now Vera turned her eyes to three teenagers dressed in white gray who were standing looking at the stand of a knick-knacks accessories.


Vera clucking. "Yes, and that's why we're truant because of your invitation" she said, looking back at me.


I responded with a half smile. "But I think those times were the most fun. Have fun, without burden and certainly not a few problems that must be faced from day to day."


"Every human being will experience stages in life. Take a look at Aqila," said Vera who turned her gaze as well as me staring at Aqila who was playing in accompanied by Nisa.


"We used to be like him too. Still a child, so cheerful not knowing what the world's problems are. Growing up into adolescence, will usually recognize a taste. And through that feeling when someone gets older, he will go through each stage with the presence of a problem. And you know why there should be trouble?" said Vera looking at me.


"The problems that come teach us to be a better person. Because the problem requires us to always think how to react, and we are required to find a solution so that the problem is solved," said Vera explained to me.


Vera's hand is now outstretched holding both of my hands. "An, even though the problems you face feel so heavy, you can definitely get through it. Think about the people around you that love you. You see, Aqila is also the baby you are carrying. Redam egomu, there are two of your hearts that depend on you. Learn to accept your husband—"


I shook my head to cut Vera's words.


"Why? Because until now you still don't love her. An—" Vera's remarks rose, I quickly said again cutting he said.


"It's not Ver!"


"Then what?" forcefully asked.


"What happens now is that Mas Pras does not want to admit the child that I have this child," said I who now sobbed.


Vera nodded her eyes. "You mean?" ask her with a soft voice.


"I was declared pregnant after resigning, and when I checked with the doctor it was discovered that I was declared three months pregnant. Mas Pras does not accept and doubts that this is his son."


"Did she suspect you belonged to Adrian?" said Vera who made me more stuck.


I squeezed Vera's hand. "I told you that my relationship with Adrian is not that close. We never did anything more" I said.


Vera took a deep breath, rolled her eyes and said, "Want to. Even if you didn't do more, but just so you know that night when I caught you guys almost kissing in a restaurant, there was actually your husband there."


"I actually work at your husband's company and I found out a few months ago. Your husband and several other employees including me are having meetings with clients. As soon as the meeting was over I found you with that guy and I'm sure your husband would know" Vera explained.


I can't say anything anymore. In the faint memories of that night and the first time Mas Pras behaved rudely to me. And is that the form of his anger and frustration that was vented on me?


I sobbed. "Then what can I do? You know, Mas Pras is even now away from me and again I think my— will not be able to survive because basically our marriage from the beginning is fragile" I murmured.


"Ask your heart. And I think that if the child you bear was born all will be missed" said Vera.


"Mama.." cried Aqila who ran towards me and was followed by Nisa. It made me pull my hand from Vera's grasp and use it to wipe my tears.


"Dear, baby" I said as Nisa sat her in the chair right beside me.


"Mama angis?" said Aqila pulling my arm.


"No Mama's just a glint," I said, wiping the corner of my eye. "It's just my eyelashes that went into my eyes" I explained.


"Aqila Seneng not playing with Aunt today?" sahut Vera asked my daughter.


"Well, what a smile Ante is" my daughter said with a big smile.


I also now take some sheets of sweat-wiping tissue and Aqila's hands with wet tissue, then thrust her bottle of drink. "Aqila drink first, must be thirsty right. Take a little break and we'll have lunch?" I said and was taken by Aqila.


I saw Vera shake her head staring at my interaction with my daughter just now. "You know, An, the life you live could be the life that others dream of," he said, making my forehead wrinkled.


Nisa clucking. "Yes, if only looking at the life of the person it does taste the most delicious, look good and also beautiful. Though what is seen is not necessarily as beautiful, as good and as wise as we imagine," said Nisa dismissing Vera's words.


Vera is now nodding with the corner of her lips raised. "Yes anyway. With the birth of a submissive child, a good husband and adequate property are in fact inversely proportional to what Anna feels," said Vera.


"Life is a choice, just how Anna responds," said Nisa who turned to look at me. "Origin do not let you choose wrong in making a decision. If it's true you loved Adrian our former lecturer just like what Vera told me. Never regret that there are many women out there who will target your husband when he is a widower" he continued.


Vera just nodded in response.


Now the phone in my bag is ringing, after I see I'm a little surprised and look at Vera and Nisa alternately.


"Why not pick up, who's calling?" sahut Vera is now asking me.
