Chapter 159
At 21:30, Mona just came home, until the house as usual she did not find Purba in her room, probably still in her study.
Mona cleaned her body without caring to meet Purba, she immediately slept not forgetting to turn on the aromatherapy room fragrance so that her mind was a little relaxed.
Purba finished from her study, she headed straight for her room to rest. Mona was already in bed. Purba did not greet him or even try to touch, just ask from wherever not.
Not Ancient did not care, he just did not want to disturb Mona who was already asleep. Between right and not Mona is asleep, Purba does not know. What is certain is that his intention does not want to disturb the wife who is comfortable with her sleep.
***
The next day Purba woke up, but Mona was not there and the attitude of Purba was ordinary, maybe Mona was helping Mother Idah in the kitchen.
The old man had finished his bath and was getting ready to go to the office. However, when going to breakfast did not find Mona there.
"Where's Mama going?" ask Purba.
"So there's sir, take breakfast. Keep going straight away."
"don't say? Where to?"
"No sir, just an ordinary farewell."
Purba just nodded, continued her breakfast then went to the office. He wasn't so worried about Mona, the important thing was that his wife had breakfast first, before leaving.
***
“Mbak Rara, later three people will come here to submit applications as Mbak employees. The two can make a cake, there is already experience. Well, if one said to apply to be an ordinary employee. Later mah can see the cv really," said Vira with breakfast before leaving for the office.
"What time do you want to be here?" ask Rara, because she wants there first.
"Say it's around 10 Ma'am."
"Oh yes, you can. Tell them you have contacts. If 10:00 I haven't arrived, just wait a minute, that's it. I want there to be a need to go outside first."
"Okay Mbak Rara," said Vira.
Since she accompanied Rara her life was more pleasant. Yes, it is because it is far from the sound of small children who sometimes get to the ear noise when it has been scrambling toys.
Today Rara is going to Gandi's contract first, she will not be desperate to persuade Azkia, but Gandi is still in the holding cell. Try if Gandi is free, maybe where else will Rara look for Azkia. Who knows, Gandi just kept him away again.
Rara went to take a taxi, which she had brought to Azkia. There are his favorite foods, along with toys. It is not much, at least if Azkia melted her heart Rara will certainly give more, especially when it has been gathered together.
Currently if carrying excessive items, afraid Azkia also misunderstood. Thinking Rara was just wooing there and fearing Azkia would not accept it either. Mubadzir.
Not long after arriving in Gandi's contract. The taxi driver waited for Rara, unless it was thought that it would be long, the driver would leave. Because Rara was afraid that Azkia still could not be invited to reconcile.
Sure enough when Rara got down from the car, Azkia happened to come out of her room, wanted to go to Bu Heti's house, because it was still morning so Azkia had just finished tidying up her room. Moreover, he slept in Bu Heti's place, because there was no father. However, his room had to remain swept away, opening a window for air to enter.
"Name ...!" With joy, Rara shouted to her son. "Daughter of my dear mother...." Rara had already stretched out her hand with one of her hands was a pouch filled with food and toys for Kia.
Kia who had just closed the door immediately shouted and retreated.
"You're not my mother! You're not my mother!" kia said while continuing to retreat, but her gaze could not be separated from the mother.
Rara continues to walk even though slowly, she tries to continue to convince Azkia that Rara really wants to re-group with her. However, Azkia's cry invites residents out including Bu Heti.
"You're not my mother! Go there. No one loves me. I can do it myself, go!" Kia continued to shout, this time while running out of nowhere.
"Son! Back, Azkia ... I miss Nak! Mother wants to hug you," cried Rara felt followed by a sob, she finally limp to see her son did not respond, even turned her head was not.
Even the crackle pouch she had been holding had fallen, Azkia had already disappeared from sight. Rara of course couldn't catch up with him..
Then Bu Heti was already beside Rara, hugging her from the side, asking Rasa to be patient.
"We go home first! It's not good to talk here." Bu Heti continues to embrace Rara's body while heading to her home.
Rara only interrupts and then follows Bu Heti to his contract. The fallen crackle and its contents were scattered by other neighbors and he took part in the rented house of Bu Heti.
"Calm down, Miss Rara. Yesterday Azkia Already I nasehati. There may still be a sense of resentment or dissatisfaction because they feel lied to. You can also feel distracted. What is calm, ma'am, I am sure the inner bond of a child to a mother will not be separated just like that. Patience...."
"Yes Mom. Sometimes my head thinks, it is natural Azkia expression like that, but the heart still feels heavy. I really wanted to tell Azkia how to understand the situation."
"Just don't worry, I'm sure as hard as a stone if it continues to be dripped water will break as well. Later Azkia's heart will soften, as often given advice and good views."
Since Rara was waited by the taxi, she also could not stay for long at Bu Heti's place. After leaving Azkia back to Bu Heti and already know this kind of reaction Azkia, and Rara has come alone, it feels no longer curious.
Rara will give distance first to his arrival. For the next maybe once a week or a month two cal. Do not get too often even Azkia feel uncomfortable. Everything must be patient and gradual.
***
This morning Mona came to the branch office which is still often monitored by her Papa.
Mr. Hartanto did not lead any office, there was only one branch office that he often visited. At least to eliminate burnout if too often at home.
"Yes Pa, Mona please give me the opportunity to lead one of the companies" Mona said in the director's office, after she briefly spoke about her complaint.
"Aren't you an Ancient Secretary?" ask Mr. Hartanto.
"Yes, but Mona wants to be independent. Does Papa not want his company to be continued by his own son?"
"Don't want to, will you have agreed when you often have time together, your marriage relationship will be better" replied Mr. Hartanto.
"That's just a theory, Pa. The Old Man is cold again."
"What about the cold back?" Old Hartanto frowned.
"Yes, as before. Never asked first, not so sweet lately. He's like he doesn't care. Even now I leave alone early in the morning here he does not care. Last night I went home too he didn't ask me where I was from."
Where continued to confide in his Papa and Mr. Hartanto also considered. It is also good, if his children will now be serious about taking care of the company, as well as Joseph. He was already quite trustworthy, unlike the old days whose hobbies were just playing women and spending company money.
Mr. Hartanto finally managed to pry why his daughter was so eager to take care of the company. Mona did not say frankly, but from the information that can be concluded by Mr. Hartanto, his daughter was willing to compete with her husband.
Mona wants to prove that she is also capable of independence. By holding one of the companies, being a successful career woman, of course men more than Ancient can be obtained.
Some days Mona is still thinking, she feels can not be far from Ancient because it is already in love. But it cannot also be if love makes him suffer, when loyalty is only forced. Because loyalty is not always bound and lasts, it is useless if in fact pain.
That's why Mona has to change. Not going back to the dark past, but having to struggle to put value on himself. Mona believes only time will allow her to escape the shadow of the Ancient, whom she has always loved. It is not good to force love only on the side.
"So you're ready to part with your husband?" ask Mr. Hartanto.
"If you're ready, Pa. But I have to take action, there's no way I'm forever like this. Waiting for something uncertain."
"If Papa can only say, it's not your fault, but something you've done there's a risk. Maybe this is what you have to bear to make amends.
Still grateful you mean the distress you get is a reprimand, to change for the better. Try if you fall back on forbidden things. If Papa will support whatever the best option is. You just choose where to branch."
Mona finally decided starting next week she would try to lead one of her Papa companies. Surely still accompanied by a confidant Mr. Hartanto. However, by having more busyness and not too often meet Purba, Mana sense it will make her accustomed, not dependent on the figure of her husband.
***
For almost two weeks the meetings of Purba and Mona were not intense anymore. Rarely met and today is the second week, where Purba took the initiative to take a break for quality time with family, namely Mona of course.
Ancient has been able to condition his affairs with Rara, even the cake shop was opened two days ago. So that Purba can calm down when reducing the capacity to meet with Rara. Because Rara will also be busy with her cake shop and soon Azka and her grandmother will move to Jakarta as well. So Rara won't be too lonely.
