I was still silent, these lips were eager to tell the truth, but I had no courage, I was afraid that if she could not accept the presence of the baby in my womb.
When I was still late in daydreaming, I was struck by the vibration of Mas Yusuf's cell phone that was still in my grasp. Because I just grabbed him when he was about to call Papa.
I turned the flat object around to see who the person who contacted him was. I flinched looking at the caller's name with the designation. "Father General" It's definitely Papa.
"Who, Ma'am?" tanyanya while following the caller on her phone without wanting to ask from me. I don't know why I feel so soft on me. Though I know he's famous quite firmly on duty.
"Mas, please don't tell Papa and Mommy." I handed the phone with a pleading face. He just quietly received his phone, and immediately received a call from Papa.
"Good night, Father! Ready, there's Sir! Okay, I'll bring Khanza home soon!"
I was very upset with this guy. He was so obedient to his superiors that he did not heed my pleas.
"Sir, I'm asking Mbak Khanza to come home now, there's something important." He's heading right back
"Mas, I beg you. I don't want to go home! Let me go now!" I raised my voice again. I'm really upset.
"Can't, Ma'am! I have to bring Mbak Khanza, at the behest of Mr!"
"Why do you always think of Papa's orders? Why don't you ever think about how I feel? What I'm doing now is for the good of all of us!!" I could not resist all the emotions of the soul that I was trying to suppress.
He pulled his car over after listening to me. He looked at me so deeply to ask for an explanation, those shady eyes as if they were intimidating me.
"What's the matter, Ma'am?" He asked back. However, I could only be stunned, I was unable to express what had really happened to me.
Unexpectedly, he grabbed me in his arms. I wanted to rebel, but my mind held him back so that my tears broke in his arms. I sought comfort in the father's embrace of the child I now bear. Can I be a little selfish?
He was trying to calm me down. His heavy hand rubbed my head gently. I don't know what made him dare to do that to me. Why do I feel he's so considerate. Why does he know so well that my heart is now so troubled.
Feeling quite calm, I broke his embrace I grabbed the tissue on the dashboard. I wipe away the tears that were still faithfully dripping. He still watched all my movements, not one bit of his gaze escaped from me.
"Mas, please once again. Please take me to the airport. I've booked a ticket, 20 minutes away," I said still begging. I am determined to leave this city.
"I'm going to deliver Mbak Khanza, but I have to know why, why Mbak left this city. And you said it was for our common good, what is it? Please explain it to me!"
His words were so firm, it confused me how to, I might not have to tell you the truth."
When I wanted to talk, his phone shook again, he received a call from Papa, and once again Papa ordered Mas Yusuf to take me home. I don't know why Papa suddenly so firmly asked me to go home.
Instantly my memory of the pregnancy-detecting flat objects that I threw in the bathroom. Did you find that thing? Ah, oh God. My history ends. Why am I so careless to be a person! Why don't I clean that thing and throw it away.
My body feels stiff, the fear envelops the heart, what should I do? What am I supposed to do? I have to go now. I opened the car door and got out.
"Mom! Don't leave! Wait Ma'am!" He was trying to chase me. But I don't mind it. I stopped a taxi that happened to pass by. Looks like he didn't want to miss and immediately drove his vehicle to catch the taxi I was riding.
"Well, where's Ma'am going?"
"Airport, Sir." I answered while watching the car in the back. Not long after the taxi I was riding entered the airport area. I'll be right down.
"Mbak Khanza's! Please don't go! Please appreciate me, you asked Mama to come home!" My hand was blocked by him.
I tried to let go of his hand. "Mas, please let me go. Let me go! This is all for your good too! I don't want to get you into big trouble!"
As soon as his hand slacked off, he looked back at me. Maybe now his heart is increasingly wondering, what problem I am facing. I hope he understands.
In the depths of the night, just accompanied by the airport lights, he and I were silent for a moment. His hand, which was still holding my hand, again led me to get into the car.
"Mas Joseph, do you still not understand what I am saying?! Do you really want to be in that trouble?!" I rebelled again, but he still refused to let me go.
"Before Mbak tells you the truth, I won't let go!"
"Well, I'll tell you the truth..." My words hang he looks at me carefully, the eyes look for an explanation.
"Say Ma'am?"
"I'm, I'm pregnant, Mom." My voice choked, my tears came back.
"What's? Pregnant?" He let go of my hand, his face was so shocked.
"Yes, Mas, so I beg you, please let me go now. All for the good of us together. Let me take care of this baby myself."
He looked back, and grabbed my hand. I dare not return that look. And I don't think I can hear the words that are coming out of his lips either. I can make sure this time he'll let me go.
"Don't go, Ma'am. Come home. I'll face this problem!"
I was surprised to hear an answer from him. What's he gonna do? What if Papa gets angry and punishes him.
"Mas, don't do that. Just let me go. Papa won't know who the father of the baby I'm carrying. You don't have to go into this." I tried to convince her, I was really scared when something happened to her.
He smiled, I don't know what that smile means. "Don't teach me to be a cowardly man Ma'am! Whatever the consequences I will accept. I'm a cop. I will be responsible for all my mistakes. Come on now we go home. Don't be afraid, this isn't Khanza's fault."
I can no longer speak. All the feelings mixed in the heart, fear, anxiety. And there's a little curiosity in my heart. Does he want this baby?
Seriate....
