Not Wanting (So) the Second
Episode 40: Mental Breakdown

Nisha came home very on time. She came to her mother-in-law's house right after Rika and the others left the house.

"Everyday afternoon." said Nisha, but she felt very awkward. Wasn't everyone excited about this meal together? Especially to celebrate Yasmine's pregnancy which has taken 3 months.

"What's up, Mom..? Ma..?" Nisha takes a position next to Agam.

"The son of professor Hadi had come here" said Agam still upset with the incident just now.

"Which one..?" Nisha folds forehead curious.

"Rica."

"What's? What'd he come here for?"

"Actually..." Yasmine explains what the relationship is and Rika. And how the girl's character was to him. From the beginning the girl was always envious of him, even though if in view of the position, Yasmine was very far below. But Rika seems not to let anyone around her, to be better than him including Yasmine.

"So she met you guys at the hospital? That's why he said he'd met that time?" Nisha looked at Agam and Yasmine alternately.

"Right, you better be careful from now on. Do not give any information, because the girl is very good at digging people's lives." pinta Agam to the wife.

If Rika's only goal is to bring Yasmine down, she won't care. But this time the case was different, if Yasmine's name was smeared as a surrogate woman, then Dinansyah's surname would also be tainted.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect him to come here." Yasmine said.

Nisha gently rubbed Yasmine's shoulder, and smiled faintly. "It's not your fault, but in the future you'd better avoid meeting him, yeah."

Yasmine nodded slowly, her mood slightly relieved as Nisha understood this situation.

"Forget it, let's eat. The review will soon be cold." said Ambar cut the tense atmosphere.

"Why hasn't Lukka come home yet...?" look at the wall clock. The clock has already shown the number five. It's not usually Lukka to come home this afternoon.

Loved, Lukka arrived. The big boy entered the house with a bright smile. There were two fun things today, first he learned to ride a big bike. Second, he learned how to properly express love.

"Ma, Lukka just wanted to quit school" said the boy as he threw his bag on the floor.

"Why..? Did those kids run you over again?" Agam and the others were surprised to hear that.

"Lukka was bored at that school. Why don't you move Lukka to High School?" for the umpteenth time, the boy rallied. It seems like lately psychic Lukka is a little shaken.

Ambar let out a heavy breath, then smiled wryly. "Sit down first, aren't you hungry?"

While being manyuned, Lukka pulled out a chair next to Agam. "Ma, Lukka's been at that school for 10 years. Lukka wants to move to High School immediately, then to University and work."

Hearing that Agam was a little concerned, all this time he thought Lukka would always grow up like a 7-year-old boy. But now Lukka mentally rebelled, having long been confined within his limitations.

"Why do you want to work? To buy a motor?" tanya Agam stared softly at his sister.

"Lukka wants to live independently, and get married."

"uhhukk..!!" Yasmine choked, coughing in her chair. Some rice grains even jumped from his mouth.

"You okay?" Nisha quickly gave her a glass of water.

Yasmine nodded, it was okay. It's just that his heart was almost dislodged hearing Lukka's words. The boy didn't seriously ask her to get married, did he? Don't tell me he's gonna talk about it right now, in front of his family.

"Married..?" Ambar folded his eyebrows, and highlighted in the face of the youngest child.

"Lukka's age is almost 27, ma. Lukka's friends say Lukka's too old for elementary school."

"So you want to get married just because you don't want to go to school?" ask Ambar further. Who doesn't panic, hearing her baby suddenly ask to get married? Where does he have such thoughts.

"Who..? Son of second grade?" timpal. He remembers Lukka once liked a second-grader, who was 9 years old.

In her chair Yasmine closed her eyes, hopefully Lukka did not mention her name.

"There's someone." Lukka blushed in embarrassment. Both of his cheeks blushed, inviting curiosity of his family.

Agam narrowed his eyes, and smiled faintly at Lukka. "mmm, can you play secrets now?"

Looks like he has to take Lukka to a psychiatrist again. He was afraid that Lukka would start to mess up like this. Doctors who once dealt with Lukka said, the early signs people with mental redartation will go crazy is often rumored.

"Lukka, do you know what marriage is?" asked Agam bowed lethargic, he also thought that the sister began to behave strangely.

"Tau.., where men and women tie promises to love each other. They are committed to living together until old age."

Agam, Nisha and Ambar suddenly gawked at Lukka's pronunciation. Although it sounds like memorizing text, how could Lukka master such vocabulary?

"They didn't just sleep together." said Agam again, he was still testing what was really on Lukka's mind.

"Yes, they have their own responsibilities. Husbands have a responsibility to provide a living, be it money, love and affection. Then Lukka said he wanted to work." he replied with a big smile.

"Then the husband and wife will have children" he added again. It sounds funny indeed, because Lukka himself still looks like a child.

"How can they have children?" again Agam tested, the extent to which the imagination of Lukka has been opened.

"First they had to undress..."

"Stop it.." cut Ambar and Nisha together. They were so shocked to see Lukka knowing all that.

"Lukka, where did you hear all that?" Ambar goosebumps all over, just yesterday his son cried for a motorbike. Now it is good to talk about marriage.

Lukka rolled his eyeballs, the chairman saying he should keep his mouth shut if anyone asks about it.

"Ma, it looks like it's time for Lukka's control." whispered Agam disappointed, because Lukka's response deviated this time.

"You are right.." lirih Ambar breathed a heavy sigh.

Yasmine, who had been riding a rollercoaster, breathed a sigh of relief.

After the dinner was over, they all returned to Agam's house. Yasmine and Ambar are cleaning the kitchen. It's only cruel if Yasmine leaves the kitchen scattered, while she participates in eating and makes the kitchen mess earlier.

Ambar and Bik Sita have banned Yasmine. But the girl still wanted to help. Ambar finally agreed, and gave Yasmine the lightest task. Wiping the spoon.

"Yasmine.., what do you think of Agam?" said Ambar, sitting in front of Yasmine, with a bowl of sprouts to be cleaned.

"How's what...?" Yasmine frowned in surprise, forgetting that Ambar had the intention of marrying her to Agam.

"His attitude, also his appearance ..."

"Okay.., he's pretty good." Yasmine smiled awkwardly. Agam is very bad in his eyes. His mouth is sharp, sharp, fierce, and likes to act as he pleases. The bike is even really on hold now.

Ambar smiled widely, he knew there would be no woman who could resist the charisma of his eldest son. "What if you get married?"

glek....

Yasmine is like swallowing a round-round durian seed. His throat was blocked, and for a moment he could not breathe. It is true that Agam said Ambar had plans to marry them.
