Bee should have guessed who the special guest was. The woman's smile looked stunningly welcoming their arrival. I don't know who he greeted to make him smile happily, Bee or Star. But seeing his reflex movements standing up and welcoming the Star, the spoiled furrow on his arm made Bee find an answer. Weepy!
"Why did it come so long?" said Ranika with a distinctive sound.
"Well, have you met here before? I think this is your meeting after a long time" said Ms. Salma smiling at the familiarity of the two.
If not for respecting her in-laws, Bee would have grabbed Ranika's hair. Just two days ago she made it clear to the woman not to touch her husband's body parts, but she did not heed her warnings.
Bee was already sitting on one of the sofas, while Ranika and Bintang were still talking standing up. The feathers of the star bristled, as if a creepy creature was scouting it. Instantly he turned to look at Bee, just as he expected. Her empress was staring intently at him. Sharper than the knife he used to chop meat.
"Ran, we sit down first" he said, taking off the woman's hand, which had been in the Star's arm. Still wanting to stay alive, Bintang chose to sit next to his wife while Ranika sat beside his mother.
"That." whispered the Star. But immediately the Star fell silent because it was glared at by his wife as a sign of his frustration.
"Where's the win, Ter?" Bee switched the conversation so that Bintang would not talk to him again.
"He's in the kitchen, sister-in-law"
"I'll see it" Bee hastened. It was still better in the kitchen than her heart was irritated at the spoiled Ranika's behavior.
"Hi, what are you doing?" bee's voice was like a gust of heaven wind in Kinan's ear. His smile that had disappeared was now they saw the arrival of the woman.
"Why long? since I was waiting for you" said he put down the spoon he used to stir the tea he just brewed.
"What's wrong?" Bee noticed Kinan's gloomy face.
"Have you met that girl?" bee's question Kinan answered by throwing back the question.
"Girl? oh..Ranika mean?mmm...already" said he sat at the dining table, observing Kinan who looked lethargic.
"You're sick Nan? how come lemes is that?"
"Sickness in the heart.in the mind as well.later we meet in an ordinary place. I want to talk a lot with you. Yuk.." Kinan had already raised a tray filled with tea water that had been added for Bintang and Bee as well.
Arriving in the middle room, his second step stopped when he heard the laughter of the four people who were hilariously chatting. The two of them threw glances at each other then resumed their steps of joining the others.
"The old one?" whispered the Star as Bee was already sitting beside her.
"Who wants to choose which weapon. Knives or scissors make weapons" he replied originally, but able to make the Star shudder in horror.
The meal went well. Mother seemed happy to see her daughter-in-law and grandchildren nearby on her happy day.
The arrival of Mr. Andri Setiawan slightly made the atmosphere melt. Kinan and Bee can enjoy the event and momentarily forget the presence of Ranika who ceaselessly spread charm to the Stars.
Bee had to get out of the circle where they were gathered because Saga whined about taking a nap. "I brought Saga to the room first huh" said Bee pamit. But the already great Saga made Bee trouble to stand up.
"Let me be the one" said Bintang, taking over Saga and bringing her to her room. The conversation continued, Piter who had been enjoying the beautiful face of Kinan who laughed increasingly felt falling into the charm of the girl.
"Then I want to try it"
"alright. I'll ask Yati to take it. Where's the boy.." said the mother looking for her assistant.
"Let me take ma'am" Bee offered to nod at mom. Lagian Bee did want to take warm water, her throat was painful swallowing. Maybe because I've been drinking ice water.
"Well, Bee, help me get it in the storage cabinet, the herbs that are brown in packaging"
After taking the potion that Bee meant to sit back, now cool to tell a story with Kinan who had chosen to sit on a separate sofa with Piter. Piter's heart meant to take Kinan away from there to have a chat, but the girl called Bee instead.
"Sister Star hasn't come down yet?" Piter shook his head lazily. "I'll see first"
It is thought that Bee may have awakened Saga to hold the Star in the room to re-strokes the boy's back to sleep. Saga habits are declining from Bee.
The door of the room was unlocked, even opened a little, so that Bee could enter without touching the door leaf.
"I didn't expect you to choose to marry such a woman, Tang"
"What do you mean, Cha?" said the star who was still accompanied by laughter, as if Ranika's words were not a form of humiliation for Bee, his wife.
"Yes like that. Bee attitude his bar-bar. Tang, duku you shot me three times. You say you like even dead love the same me who has a submissive nature, and also meek. Why even choose a wife who messes and bars? are all models really that attitude?"
"Ran, watch your words. She's my wife, and I love her so much. I love what's inside Bee" Bee's feelings soared at the Star's words. The goldenness in his chest that had been painful, was now slowly evaporating. He can trust the stars.
"I know you, tang. You're just obsessed with him. You just want to escape me by marrying him" said Ranika relaxed. Bee desperately wanted to come out of hiding and claw at the face of the demonic woman, but her legs seemed to be on spikes to the ground, unable to move.
Ranika, who was originally just standing in front of the Star who was rubbing Saga's back, was now sitting next to the Star. His hand caressed the thigh of Star until the man stared intently at Ranika.
"You still love me, don't you?"
"Stop Cha. In my heart there is only Bee, my wife" said Bintang.
"You sure?"
"Related" said the steady star.
"Did Bee know I was your first love? I can't possibly be replaced in your heart!"
"That's just the past, Cha. You used to reject me, I love you so much and expect you, but you dumped me and left me, so I don't believe in love anymore. Then I met Bee, the only person who could make me smile again and bring me back to life. Now and forever, there's only him in my heart"
"But I'm your savior too. I helped you from that accident. And you know, I've been away from you for years because the doctor told me I wouldn't be able to have any more children. The accident made my uterus removed, I felt imperfect for you, so she chose to leave, not because I didn't love you, tang" slowly Bee could hear Isak crying Ranika.
With a bated cry Bee left the room, going alone by the pool. No one will see him cry.
