My ex-Ipar Candidate
Fruit Not Far From The Tree (Raka=Gian)
"Good morning, Mama."
Habits that even very very Gian do, since when the man greeted with a smile as sweet as that. Sit down and join the two people who were now staring strangely at him.
"He's why, Mas?"
"Okay, you don't understand the character of your firstborn either."
Gian just pulled the corner of his lips to hear his Papa's words, the man was becoming a material ghibah both parents. The man sat without sin leaving Radha who might still be pouting because of his actions.
Shortly thereafter, his little wife joined an unusually unfriendly face. Radha glanced at Gian who momentarily turned to her.
"Omo-omo, Mama's daughter-in-law has come, here sweetheart. How's sleep? Wakeless?"
Radha has not answered, she is still able to neutralize the situation. Trying to forget for a moment what Gian did to him.
"Yes-"
"Oh of course, Ma, even he is very sound. Aye, Zura?"
Jelita chuckled when the Son took over and answered her question. The plain and reddened face Radha showed made her even more anxious.
"Gian, you're not messing around, are you?"
Raka's question makes Radha more down, he is just embarrassed when remembering it. He really can not forget the small events that successfully made his heart beat fast.
"What about, Pa?"
"Yes, Gian, without Papa explaining you would understand."
Gian laughed discordantly, but still he could not hide if he did things that were out of his control.
"No, Pa, just one of a kind."
Raka let out a slow sigh, the agreement between Adri, Gian and himself felt not too long ago. How could Gian forget.
"Gian, you remember?"
For a moment Gian was silent, indeed Ardi's request after the agreement was too heavy. He even felt that the two people were too selfish of him.
"Yes, Pa, Papa take it easy."
Gian's face change caught clear in Radha's beautiful bead. Obviously, he did not understand, but it was impossible for him to ask at this time.
"A pact?" jelita asked felt strange about the conversation her son and husband had.
"What deal, Mom?"
"No, finish your breakfast quickly."
Raka wouldn't talk about this to Jelita, of course she wouldn't allow that to happen. And Raka only minimized the commotion between them.
"Ma, we're going home today, right?" radha asked to confirm the situation, although there was no way he could pursue his delay, still he had to make sure of it.
"Y-"
"Papa and Mama go first, you go with Brother."
"What's wrong, honey?" jelita asked to confirm Gian's goal of holding Radha back.
"No, Ma, I just want to be with him longer."
Of course Gian gave up, he would not tell me where the real destination was. And he would never tell Jelita. His intention to take Radha somewhere this time should he carry out.
"Are you guys on your honeymoon? Or what?" asked Jelita who was so enthusiastic about Gian's words.
"Mama," said Gian slightly pressed his sentence, he felt uncomfortable with Jelita who was too enthusiastic about what he did.
Jelita did not ask deeper, he let Gian take Radha to where. That is totally Gian's right. While Raka scrutinized the stern look on her son's face, she was only worried that Gian would act a no-no on Radha.
Gian sighed softly, his hand grabbed the glass of water beside him and drank it. "Relax Pa, your daughter-in-law came home intact, there will be no abrasions at all" said Gian calming. He put food back in his mouth.
Gian intentionally said so. The word really– is soothing in two different contexts when understood by the two different middle-aged people. The smile was clearly on the faces of both Raka and Jelita.
"Good, that's good and it should be, '" Raka nodded while still putting nutrients into her mouth.
Word by word thrown by two different men of that generation actually– contains a meaning that can only be understood by the two of them. While Jelita just nodded in agreement with what Raka said without knowing the true meaning of each word.
The four of them returned silent in the clanking of domineering spoons and plates. No more talk after that. They began to focus on the dish that was in front of them each– until they were done.
"Mama Sama Papa first yes," said Jelita who had been waiting for Raka in the car.
"Yes Ma" said Radha with a big smile although stored in the heart many questions. While Gian just nodded.
"Revelation! Take care of Mama's daughter-in-law. Until the blisters, I fired you as Mama's child," threatened Jelita accompanied by a joke.
"Yes Ma yes" replied Gian lazily. Jelita just laughed a little at the attitude of her son. Jelita waved at the eldest child and his daughter-in-law, then got into the car.
"Come with Brother" asked Gian when the car that Raka and Jelita were driving had gone far enough. Radha follows Gian who gets into the car. He was still wondering where Gian would take him.
Gian started to install the engine of the car. Can't take it anymore, Radha didn't stop herself from asking.
"Where are we going, brother?"
"To the monkey cage."
"Why did you go there, brother?" Radha still does not understand what Gian means. Why do they have to go there? That's kira–kira.
"Let's eat your brother" replied Gian increasingly unwavering. Radha glared, as if wanting to eat Gian alive. Not afraid, Gian laughed. Radha's expression was so adorable in her eyes.
"My little rabbit is so adorable" he murmured softly, not even clearly. His voice only caught faintly in Radha's ears.
"What brother?" ask Radha to make sure.
"No! Don't ask too many questions" replied Gian to end their conversation. He did not want Radha to make his ears hot because of the many questions he would hear later.
"Basic kukupret!" muttered Radha lirih while looking towards the side window.
"Just be my little rabbit" Gian murmured inwardly. This time he releases Radha even though he hears Radha's curse clearly for himself. Gian started driving his car through the street.
