SPD (Daster Seller Sale)
13. Love Affair

Time keeps turning and the days keep changing. In a simple rented house, Toyib seemed to be getting ready.

"What time do you want to leave? Up what?"ask Dimas to Toyib. The man was wearing shorts and bare chest. Rub her wet hair with a small towel as she has just finished cleaning herself.

"After I finish cleaning my luggage and showering. The plan was, I'd just take the bus, "so Toyib packed some clothes that he would bring later into the backpack.

Today Toyib intends to go home because yesterday his parents called. They told Toyib to return home immediately without explaining why. Toyib was unable to resist the wishes of the two parents who had cared for him and raised him all along. Therefore, this morning Toyib intends to return to his hometown.

"Here, I nitip for your child and your parents" Dimas said giving a cardboard container of instant noodles that had been closed tightly to Toyib.

"What's this?"tanya Toyib received the cardboard given by Dimas.

"Just clothes for your kids and your parents. As well as toys for your son, "that Dimas smiled faintly.

"Thank you, Dim!"toyib smiled broadly.

"Either. But, if you know not, why are you telling me to go home?"asked Dimas while sitting on the wooden chair in the living room.

"I don't know either, Dim. I'm curious too. I asked if anyone was sick? They said there wasn't. But this word of theirs was very important,"so Toyib sat down next to Dimas, sighing deeply.

"Don't you want to be married by your parents?"tanya Dimas guessed.

"I'm still not ready to go back to my family, Dim," said Toyib with a lethargic face.

One year ago, Toyib had just divorced his wife. The beautiful woman he married for six years, but turned out to be having an affair behind him. Toyib wandered, desperately looking for money to make his son and wife happy. But when he returned home, he had to accept the fact that he was cheated on by a wife he loved so much.

"Are you traumatized?"ask Dimas who already knows the story of Toyib's life. Likewise with Toyib who already knows the life story of Dimas.

"Maybe. But that's not the main reason for me to have a family again. I'm not ready for a family anymore because of my son. I need to find a woman who can accept my son. While looking for someone who would accept me as is difficult, let alone find someone who can accept my son," Toyib said at length. It is difficult to find a companion living with his status as a one-child widower.

"Yes. You're correct. It is difficult to find a life partner who will accept us as we are. Especially if you have to accept people like us whose income is erratic,"sahut Dimas let out a long sigh.

Working as a traveling clothing salesman of course his income is uncertain. Unlike people who work in a company or PNS. Sometimes they sell well, but sometimes they do not sell. When approaching Eid, usually they will get a lot of money. Because the majority of people will buy new clothes to welcome the Eid al-Fitr holiday. But a month or two after the Eid, not many people will buy clothes. At such times, they would go around more to collect credit, than to peddle clothes.

"Are you still traumatized to be in a relationship with a woman?"ask Toyib.

"Not really. I just don't think anything fits. After all, as you said earlier, our income is uncertain and I also feel not ready to get married because I do not have enough money to meet the needs of my wife and me later. Especially if you have children later. I'm afraid I can't afford my wife's skincare, and I'm buying formula for my son. You know how expensive skincare and formula are?"dimas said, breathing a long breath.

"You're right. Skincare and formula are more expensive than the kitchen, "so Toyib laughed blandly "But many will marry you, Dim. Especially the widow in the village of Cempaka. That widow, she's proposed to you a few times, Dim. He even offered to open a clothing store for you. If you want to be with him, you no longer need to feel the heat and rain because selling clothes around. The widow's face was beautiful, and also had no children. You can live a good life if you want to marry him" Toyib said at length.

"If love is hard" Toyib sighed heavily.

"You too, you will be judged by the widow at the crossroads of this village. He's also pretty rich. Why don't you just marry her? Kan fits, the widow met the widower," said Dimas then chuckled.

"Hais, males I'm the same as him. Ilfil. She's a gatel widow. Any chance of sticking like a caterpillar. His eyes are so naughty. Her clothes are also horror. You see, he likes to wear tank tops and very short pants. Horrify me. Moreover, I've seen him go out with a guy and they look friendly. I also often see some men coming to her house. I'm afraid she'll be a faithful wife, aka Every bend there is," Toyib shuddered in horror to make Dimas laugh.

"I was just kidding. I also disagree if you marry the widow" Dimas said.

"Why? You have a crush on him?"toyib asked, raising his eyebrows with a meaningful smile.

"No. I don't have a crush on him. I don't feel the same about him. I don't agree if she's your wife because I agree with you. I'm afraid she'll be a faithful wife, aka every bend there is," said Dimas then laughing.

"Hey, it turns out we think the same,"so Toyib,"But I was surprised, why doesn't he have a crush on you, huh? Even impressed cuek with you," asked Toyib curious. The widow they were talking about never paid attention to Dimas. Dimas was the most handsome man in the village.

"When we just came to this village, I once caught him again playing horses in an empty house down the street with an SMU boy,"sahut Dimas who had indeed seen the widow they were talking about making love to SMU children with a standing position in an empty house. Dimas catches them right at the moment they groan together for getting the release.

"Correct?"toyib asked with an expression of disbelief.

"Take a. I caught them fitting them again at the top, "sahut Dimas seriously.

"Hii. it turns out that she really is a gatel widow," Toyib said shuddering in horror,"Yes, I'm going to take a shower first,"Toyib's camel after seeing the clock stuck to the wall showed at nine in the morning.

"Greet your parents and your children, yes!"dimas.

"Just calm! I will certainly tell you later. There's already been a gift of one cardboard, yes I don't want to convey your greetings to them" Toyib said then chuckled.

"Basic!"muttered Dimas shook his head slowly with a smile on his lips.
