MYFATHER
Episode 33
Yudi sighed heavily, trying to master the approaching frustration, ”Gue himself did not know what was happening. The world is completely crazy! I feel like I've only been away for three days to Mirna's house, and know-how everyone says I'm missing three months. It's completely insane..”
Danu smiled blandly, ”Indeed! Your story for me..it's hard to believe..”.
”So you said I lied?” yudi replied with an offended tone.
”I didn't say that. It's just that your story is not from this world. But I suspect your disappearance was indeed due to a female problem.”
”You mean?” Yudi was still hesitant despite starting to be able to read the direction of the conversation.
”Indeed it wasn't about Mirna, because I just found out about it from you. The question is why not be honest with me? Why didn't you say Siska was pregnant?” danu asked with glittering eyes in anger.
Yudi surprised, ”So you already know?”
”When I found out about Siska, I understood why you wanted to run away from responsibility. Unfortunately the decision was not right, making others think badly of you.”
”Gue is not possible to do that..gue...gue only left the plane and because the flight schedule was delayed three days I decided to..stay at home Mirna.”.
”Wouldn't it be easier if you asked for my help?”
”Gue...gue does not want to trouble you same Indri.”
”Omong empty! And now look at the results because you feel bad asking for help with us?” Danu was inflamed while Yudi kept silent. There was nothing to hide from his best friend, he wanted to do as he said. She does want to stay at Mirna's house on purpose, though the situation is directing but the decision comes from Yudi himself. Danu continued, ”Then may dong, I think so ugly? Because I'm sure the girl won't lose you. She wants you to be her boyfriend.maybe also her husband.and forget Siska who is currently pregnant.”.
”Not so it happened!” Yudi responded with a sniffle. ”She did approach me but I..can't take it.”.
”Yeah, but you want to be with him for three months.with that long time what can you do with him, right?” Danu said.
”Three months? I don't..”
”And as long as you're alone, I'm losing a baby! Where is my best friend when I need her during bad times?” this time Danu yelled in anger.
Yudi thought Danu was done but it was only the beginning because Danu kept on attacking,”And as long as you two make out somewhere.gue had to clean everything up, additional work from good friends, and bosses who nag at all times and lightly hand give warning letters because my own work is delayed.”
”Gue...gue.pardon me...” Yudi added in his heart, if it makes you better even though he has nothing to do with the problem. Yudi could have been offended by Danu's baseless accusations but his common sense reminded him that he had a hand in making a mistake, had it been denied an offer to stay Mirna these events would not have happened. A small chance turned out to be the driver of his wild lust...
”It is so.”
”And since you are both victims of what happened these three months I think you can speak well.
Yudi frowned, ”Who?”
”He can also be a witness to strengthen the statement that you have indeed disappeared three months...” as soon as Yudi turned to the voice that suddenly reprimanded him from behind his heart melos.Nothing has changed since the last time he saw the girl in Jakarta in December last year.
She remained charming, graceful, and full of dignity despite her changing body a lot, especially her large, protruding belly behind her clothes, while her disheveled face was complete with her clear red eyes showing how much she cried before the two met. The girl's self-confidence was at the bottom of her period of life.
“Siska?” hiss Yudi. “Since when you..”.
”From the first minute you logged into this house,” replied Siska.
Yudi looked at Danu with a stern look because his friend did not tell Siska at all from the beginning. This is the same as plunging her into the abyss, and I don't know how much the girl heard from her conversation with Danu because Siska said she had been in this place since she first entered here. Besides, he does not understand how Siska can be at Danu's house because they have never met, and he has never met them both even though Danu is his best friend and Siska is his girlfriend.
Understand the meaning of that gaze Danu shrugged indifferently, ”We accidentally met when Siska came to the office last week looking for you. Fortunately we were able to meet, since then Indri and I invited him to stay here during your search because I.” his hand pointed at Yudi. ”...I'm sure this is the place you will come to when you reappear.”
Danu's intention may be good, so that both can solve the problem without third-party interference but a sudden silence envelops the entire room. The male feels uncomfortable due to the awkwardness produced by guilt while the female is suddenly stiffened by emotions restrained from heartache and the pain of shame that piled up for so long. Danu became clumsy and said before leaving the room, ”Then I leave you two..”.
Six months...
Yudi looked at Siska's stomach in torment. Didn't expect him to be a father, in this fast time, in countless times, in a time when he wasn't ready to be born-in. Moreover, there was not a single moment where he did not think of Mirna, nor the possibility of aborting the contents and ending his relationship with Siska.
But..yeah, pardon..six months.Well what has he done?
A pregnancy that big is not something that can be denied just like that. He stared at Siska's big belly with great anxiety. There was a life in there that at this moment seemed to be staring at him intently, emitting anger like the mother had given him. Siska stands sculpted with her hands folded in front of her chest. Yudi had never seen a Siska style like this because the girl looked so dangerous at the time. For the sake of diluting the situation Yudi took the initiative to open a conversation, ”How are you? Me...”
A slap landed on Yudi's cheek. Hard, fast, and never avoided... PLAQUE!!!
It was not the pain that ruled Yudi after the slap but the overwhelming guilt. The shield of Siska's own anger seemed to vanish, crumbling instantly as it blew away the slap earlier. The girl curled up on the sofa, covering her face with pillows while crying out violently. Yudi just stood up like a fool, not knowing what to do but wait for Siska's cry to subside...
