Shadow From the Past
Chapter 131

“El, I want to go out briefly yes,”

Elvina blocks her husband from coming out of the room. He stood up straight by folding his hands and looked at Vano with squeaking eyes.

“Kok obstructed? I'm going out,”

“Where are you? Want to do?”

“Mau do me a favor, not your business,” said Vano with a ignorant face. He blinked one of his eyes and stuck out his tongue to rub Elvina.

Elvina clucked and beat her husband's chest in annoyance. “Where are you?!” Vano grunting.

He rubbed his chest wrapped in a plain T-shirt and had just been hit by his wife until pushed back.

“Ah you cheated, hit her in the chest. I ‘kan so can't reply,”

Elvina now pinched Vano's waist and this time Vano could reply. But He did not pinch, rather to tickle Elvina until Elvina shuddered and asked Him to stop for ignorance.

“Do not fad!”

“You started first,”

Vano will continue his steps again but again blocked by Elvina. His wife shook her head, forbidding him to come out.

“It's late afternoon, where are you going?”

“You get out for a while, get some fresh air,”

“Long!”

“Really, El, when I lied?”

“I still don't believe. I'm coming with dong then,”

“No ah, I'm not talking to you,”

Elvina held Vano's arm which still wanted to break through the barrier she made with her own body. Elvina stretched out her hands at the door to block her husband from leaving.

Vano laughed not understanding of his wife's behavior. Why so adorable? Honestly, he has never been prevented from leaving until so much by Elvina.

“I want to go, hurry up, no one is waiting,”

“Who?!”

“Friend me dong, I have friends, you only have friends,”

“Friends or friends?”

Elvina followed Vano who wanted to go right, and left. He continued to obstruct until Vano clucked his guard up.

“You don't like this dong, El. You want to go for a walk with friends I never banned ‘kan?”

“Ya which friend used to be?”

“Emang you know my friends? Huh?”

“Know, I know,”

Vano crossed his chest and looked at his wife with a smile. “Okay, try to say who are my friends, he said you know ‘kan?”

“You only call who is a friend who wants to go with you now. What's the trouble trying?”

“Yes you won't know,”

“Let me know try callin,”

“Eh, you know me. Please don't think strangely. He's really my friend. Yes, I'm going first. All right at home, I'll just be a minute,”

“It's late afternoon! Why go-away anyway?”

“Mau coffee,”

“Ngopi keeps feeling. Even if you want to make coffee at home, what is difficult?”

“Copies flavour, El. If in the cafe ‘kan all can wash your eyes. That is to wash your eyes to see the atmosphere around the cafe, so do not get tired of seeing the atmosphere in the house continue,”

“I am aja who is tired of trying to stay at home, why do you want to come out? Hmm?”

“Ya I'll take you later, but not now, okay?”

Vano gently rubbed his wife's face after which gently pushed Elvina's body to completely step aside no longer blocking his steps who wanted to go out enjoying the afternoon alone without Elvina directly staring at his back with a flat face and molar teeth that collide with each other.

“You think you can lie to me again, Ken? Huh huh? I won't be able to!”

Elvina won't let her husband lie again without him knowing. He must find out to prove true or not Vano went with a friend who said Vano, he also knew his friend. Elvina was very curious, roughly who would go with Vano at this time.

After Vano rushed out of the house on his motorbike, Elvina immediately entered the car. He was silent for a while until about the position of Vano was far away and could no longer realize its existence then he gas.

Vano rode his motorcycle while he was in his own car. During the drive, Elvina felt furious at once and was impatient to see who Vano was going with. If Vano leaves with Delila again, he's totally outrageous. Less often do they meet? Even when claiming to be sick, Vano still took the time to meet with his lover.

“Only if you lie to me again, Mas. Do I have to excuse you two later if you guys really meet again?”

******

Vano stopped his wheels in a cafe. Vano took off his headgear after which rushed inside the cafe to meet someone who had already made a deal with him to meet because that person wanted to talk to him about something.

Vano circulated a glance all over the cafe looking for that person. After He found his presence in one corner of the cafe, He immediately rushed over.

“Woy! How are you?”

Vano came over and immediately patted the woman on the shoulder. He was busy with a mobile phone so surprised to find the arrival of Vano.

“Lo why do I want to meet? Don't worry about Elvina anymore. What the fuck? You want to say the same important thing to me?”

“Soal I want to say things that Elvina should not know anyway, because I'm not good with him, I know this is suddenly very, njir. And you must be shocked,”

“Apaan?”

“And I have acquaintances well he does not want to date, he wants to know closely with me continue to marry,”

“Okay, nice dong, Ta. Where is his fault?”

Vano looked at Tata with a curious highlight. He did not know what things Tata wanted to say until he invited him here.

“Yes I was surprised, the time suddenly want to marry?”

“Not suddenly dong. ‘Kan knew you before. He said it was like ‘kan?”

“Yes, but I think I feel like it's too soon, Van. Keep also—gue ‘kan had a crush on lo—“

“Heh! What's lo?!”

Vano was shocked not to play to hear Tata's confession. All this time Vano thought they were really pure friends. So there is no limit to argue even though because it is natural in terms of friendship. But he did not expect that when they like to argue when they meet, it turns out that Tata once held a taste for him.

“But now it's not really,” said Tata while laughing. He laughed at Vano whose face was very tense.

“Lo don't talk, Ta. Elvina is ‘kan temen lo, if she knows how to try?”

“Ya now is no,”

“If you have not, then why do you not want to accept the intention of the man you said you want to marry you and do not want to date?”

“Yes because I think it's too fast, Van. So between him the same taste I like to lo it has nothing to do. I once liked you. That was once yes! Don't be so scared until now!”

“But the point is that you once had a love for me, njir!”

“Ya why? ‘Kan just told me, does not mean want to be the same lo. That's why I don't want to talk to Elvina, because I want to tell you about it as well in addition to the story about the man earlier,”

“Yes good if you don't like me anymore. Because I have a wife, if still single anyway, we can also reverse it like college time,” said Vano by raising his eyebrows. He was just joking.

“No way! I like it when we first met again, Van, after some know not met,”

“But how can you not seem if you like me? We are very familiar to keep fighting often too, you do not seem to like me,”

“Ya for what do I give a show? ‘Kan just like, not more, maybe because so long we did not meet, we finally reunited again. That's why I'm so stretched you're a bit surprised also kok added handsome I keep having a crush again, but I don't want more really. Because I know you have a wife. Last night, I had the intention to be an actor but—“

“Heh don't fuck around! Elvina tau tau rasa!” Vano glared sharply and pointed at Tata who immediately laughed.

“Ya point I once liked the same lo the first time we met again after a few years no interaction at all,”

“Okay, now it's pure what do I think?”

Vano is also anxious if Tata has more feelings for him. With Delila alone He had to face the anger of Elvina who was terrible almost every day, especially if added to the Tata who likes him. Most likely Elvina is getting cranky.

“Temen aja, uh friends, at the same time Elvina also,”

“Okay good then. Uh I want to confide in this,”

“Soal?”

“That's why Elvina has been getting weird lately, Ta,”

Someone who had observed the two of them since earlier and listened to their chatter immediately shook his head as he became the subject this time.

“White why? He turned into a power ranger?”

“Gue wants a serious story. Ah elah lo mah,”

“Iya okay-okay, what do you mean?”

“Elvina angry because I'm close to another woman,”

“Yes is stupid! Time yes she is not angry, ‘kan lo her husband, why close to each other? Where's your brain, handsome?”

“Lo know yourself ‘kan? He was not in love with me at first. He is the point when it comes to me. Want me near who the cake, he does not care, it was originally ‘kan. Well lately somehow become a shoulder. His work is mulling,”

“Ya you are fishing anyway! If you don't fish, he won't grumble,”

“Mancing how the hell? I'm not fishing,”

“Elvina may not say that you do not make a mistake. People nagging that there must be a reason, Van. If suddenly just ngomel means you need to check the psyche dong. All I saw was normal Elvina,”

“Eh you mean, my wife is crazy?”

“Lah lo himself who did not directly say so. He might not say that you are not making a mistake. Try to be self-conscious, you make mistakes what?”

Vano smiled obliquely and it made Tata frown in confusion. “Lo why the hell? How about that smile?” just now Vano looks hot with a look of annoyed face when telling Elvina. But now smile.

“Ya even though she's grumpy constantly, I'm happy anyway,”

“Kok happy?”

“Nih yes, he ‘kan initially do not appreciate me at all, do not care if I want to be close as well as ready even equally you aja impressed me disodorin, do not care, but lately I feel he's jealous, he doesn't like me close to each other, so I'm happy. Meaning she's starting to appreciate my presence ‘kan, Ta? And maybe he's in love with me,”

“Disodorin?”

“Iya, all this time Elvina was kayak accidentally nyodorin me. I don't know why I feel that way because he's so sick. I'm uncomfortable sometimes close to you, but he even seems to be intentionally sneaking into both of us. Do you understand what I mean?”

“Ah no, lo ngaco nih. Time yes he was,”

“Gue overnight, Ta. Can't I lie? Every time you come home, he told me to meet you even though ‘kan you two also cement, continue if you call me, I want him jealous, but not at all, he said, even when you ask for help night-night because you are samperin same ex-lo, he does not problemin it even though ‘kan I leave him night-night,”

“Yes because I temen lo! That's why he is. Not a nyodorin, but his heart is good. She wants her husband to find someone who needs help, she wants you to be good with friends, you do not understand anyway?”

“But he didn't have any jealousy at all, Ta? I if so he was jealous after seeing the closeness of his husband with his female friend. The people closest to him only dispute the closeness of the two of us. She was not, but she was my wife. ‘Kan freak,”

“Because maybe according to Elvina we are close reasonable aja,”

“I don't like his attitude like that. Although there should be a little jealousy. At least he talked to me so I can keep the same distance lo, close friends may but do not overdo it. If it's like ‘kan yummy, Ta,”

Elvina who had been the listener behind her menu book, was stunned to hear the expression of Vano's heart that had been kept tightly from her.

“So Vano thinks I'm too indifferent to him huh? He wants me to be jealous even a little? What if I started to do that now?”

******

“Where is Elvina, Mih? In room ‘kan?”

“Go, Sir,”

Vano scratched his temple. In my heart I can guess where Elvina is. “He seems to be following me again. Ah want to say more about him like,”

Vano climbed up the stairs one by one to the room. Arriving in the middle of the stairs, he heard a house bell ringing.

Vano quickly descended the stairs and He forbade Amih to open the door because He wanted to do so. He was sure that the one who came was Elvina.

As soon as he pulled the door lever, it turned out that it was Elvina. He smiled to welcome his wife.

“Hello, Elvina. Where?”

“I? From the streets,” said Elvina while stepping foot in casually. Vano closed the door and equalized his pace with Elvina.

“Way where?”

“Where I like. Are you the only one who can walk? Huh?”

“Don't tell me you go with Jona,”

“Yes! Exactly right. How can you guess anyway?”

“Ih really bad, not the same permission me. My people just want to go out earlier permission is the same as you, why are you not permission?”

“You want to ban me? Hm? You want to be banned too?!” Asked Elvina with sharp glaring eyes.

Vano smiled and immediately grabbed the shoulder of his wife who had stopped to talk to him who sounded unhappy because Elvina came out with Jona without her permission.

“Not banned, just don't like it,”

“Yes I don't care if you like or don't, you are free to go out with anyone, same cheating you even have no limits, I am also free dong,”

“Who am I saying there are no limits? I have limits, El. Anyway I did not walk with anyone, same friend,”

“Yes who's his friend?”

“You know very well, he is close to you too,”

“Oh,” only so response Elvina. Vano grunted violently. He held his embrace on Elvina's shoulder until Elvina's head came closer to him and he kissed Elvina's head repeatedly.

“Don't fishing I'm jealous dong,”

Elvina immediately let go of her husband's hand which was on her shoulder and she pushed Vano away.

“Don't come near, you smell the female perfume again,”

“Eh so good, love to catch his mouth by the way,”

Vano felt sure that his body was not infused with the scent of perfume other than his perfume. Why is he so sure? Because there was no story exchanging perfumes, or cuddling so that the aroma of other perfumes had stopped in his clothes.

“Emang smells of other women's perfumes, not me or you,”

“Nothing! Don't slander!”

Vano smelled his own body. He did not find the perfume that Elvina called belonged to another woman.

“People just smell my perfume. New kiss!”

Vano opened his arms and brought the armpits closer towards Elvina who immediately moved away. Vano haphazardly pulled Elvina's hand to get close to her again and she again acted infuriatingly towards the wife who tightly closed her nose with a finger.

“Mas, don't fad!”

“Biarin, you have to kiss yourself so as not to accuse. People don't smell another woman's perfume, it's my perfume,”

“Iya-iya! I'm just kidding!”

“Tuh ‘kan ngeselin you,”

Only then did Vano stop judging his wife after Elvina no longer accused him of mischief. If he didn't insist on dodging, Elvina could have pressed him.

“You're seriously out with Jona earlier? Hmm?”

“That's it, when I lied?”

“Where is it? Why didn't you meet me anyway?”

“You may be busy with Delila. Well I'm busy with Jona too, so we don't see you,”

“Kok he wants the same you?”

“What do you mean?!”

They arrived at the room, Vano immediately sat on the edge of the bed, while Elvina locked the door and stared intently at her husband.

It's not that bad ‘kan? Why does Elvina speak as if she does not deserve to be wanted by others. Vano's remarks offended Elvina.

“He wants to be with you? Does he know you fight a lot? Does he know you're selfish, stubborn, recriminatory, and just plain mischievous? You know what?”

“You're a time that likes assortment,”

“Tuh ‘kan start nudu,” said Vano while pointing to his wife.

“Partially yes, he ‘kan know you already have a husband, why does he want the same wife of people? Oh or are you not being honest about your status to him? You're not saying that you already have a husband and your husband is me?”

“Ngapain says? Not important,” Obviously Elvina is lying. Jona already knew about her current status which was the wife of Elvina. So do not be surprised when it comes to the house to find the figure of Vano. Did Vano forget that Jona even apologized for bothering the two of them when Jona came home? It means Jona knows what Elvina's relationship is with Vano.

“Oh so it is,”

Vano nodded his head. She thought Elvina was open with her friend about her status as a wife. Then it seems that Jona is still trying to approach his wife by sending food alone has made Vano think everywhere and feel suspicious.

“I've been to anyone honest, if I'm a husband of someone. How are you not honest? Very bad, covering the status is not good. People think you do not have a husband so dekretin nothing, when originally you already have a husband,”

“You're the same Delila honestly if you're married?”

“Yes be honest, there's nothing I cover up. You ‘kan will have come to his house and talked about everything. Possessively you come and tell him that he no longer needs to get close to me because I already have you as a wife. It's ‘kan?”

“Yes, but he hasn't changed at all. Stay cool, nervous, ask to be carded what? Here deh I garukin the same razor,”

Vano laughed even though he was quite goosebumps as well as hearing Elvina's serious-sounding speech.

“Don't say it ah, I'm terrified of her shadow,”

“I can also scratch you wearing it, I happen to have. Would you like to try it now?”

Elvina walked up to the nightstand by the bedside and Ken immediately approached her in a panic.

“Not trying, thanks for the offer, Beautiful. I still want to live. Crazy to be scratched using razor blades, blood continues to die there,”

“That's punishment for cheating people,”

“If punishment for a non-honest person what? You also have to have the punishment. You ‘kan lied about your status,”

“No harm if it is,”

“Who said there was no harm? Yes there is! You did a lie means,”

“People don't know I'm lying,”

“You are also not open with me. Why didn't you tell me earlier that you wanted to go with him? Hmm?”

“You've been busy with others, why did I ask permission? Important anyway?”

“Yes important dong, I have to know where you are, oh or already do not want to follow my rules anymore? Don't you want to tell me again if you want to go? So if there was anything like that, I'd be a fool who didn't know anything. You call Rendra again, ask to pick her up when you're drunk, really stressed you out, El,”

“Because I'm angry with you again. Don't ask for help with you,”

“Mau carded same razor ?” Elvina was still down in front of the nightstand drawer and she almost opened the drawer but Vano quickly held her back.

“No! You like all sorts of things,”

“Ya already, meaning if you do not want to be carded using razor blades, do not try to play behind me. Can you follow that?”

“No appointment,” Vano said with his big smile.

“No, kidding. I never mess behind you really, if you want to play in front of me,”

Elvina rotated her eyes irritated at Vano who greeted her with a joke and laughter.

Elvina came out of the room and headed for the ground floor. He chose to go to the kitchen to find Amih who was in the kitchen.

“Mih, walk again yuk,”

Elvina approached Amih who was making iced tea for herself. Amih looked at Elvina not understanding.

“Where to go, Bu?”

“Where to find entertainment. I'm stressed here,”

“Mother just came home, time already want to go. If the stress of the story is the same as me, Mom,”

“Sit down at the dinner table yuk,”

“Mother wants iced tea too?”

“No need, I'm not thirsty,”

Amih nodded and he followed Elvina who invited her to the dinner table. Elvina seems interested in sharing her story with him and Amih is happy to find it useful. Rather than outside, mending Elvina made herself just as a story companion.

“I just found out that Tata likes Vano,”

“Hah? Tata friend Mr Vano, Bu?”

“Iya, but he says it's not now,”

“You know from whom?”

“He himself said, I heard,”

“Tuh ‘kan, Mom. I said what, the name of the friend can not be fully trusted. I ‘kan have ever told my mother to be careful,”

“But he said he doesn't like Vano anymore, Mih. He just said once, if what I caught from his talk, now he's not anymore,”

“Ah thank goodness then. I really guessed. Men and women can never be purely just friends. There must be one that holds feelings or it could be both. If I believe in the same Mr. Vano not possible assortment,”

“But how is Delila? he can fuck around behind me, Mih. He cheated the same one whose name was Delila,”

“Emang is sure, Bu?”

“Udahlah, less proof moreover? I've seen how many times they met, and Delila is still aggressively contact Vano even though I've come to his house, I've spoken carefully. Do I need to excuse you, yes,”

In the heart of Amih immediately muttered because his memory twisted the incident where Vano talked to a woman named Delila by phone but Vano asked him not to tell it to Elvina. It is very suspicious of Vano's request that one.

“What is Mr Vano cheating on?”
