Endra is sure that Aunt Inah will definitely complain to her Om about Endra speaking impudently. After all, Endra did emphasize the fact that he was much smarter, more educated and more speech-worthy than his uneducated and just know-how-demanding aunt.
Endra realized that he said things that are less ajjar and including things that are despicable.
So Endra was not surprised when Mr. Hanung looked for him at night.
He came as if he was meeting, a little talk about the transaction, before finally getting into the topic.
"Your daughter said you were rude, Sen."
Endra scratched his suddenly itchy head. Saying he didn't do anything wrong, Endra knew it was wrong. But to say he admitted he was wrong, Endra also felt he was not really wrong.
In Endra's eyes, Aunt Inah also did something wrong. Fatal mistake for him.
"I just can't be horrified if Auntie says so, Om," he said trying not to defend himself nor too blame.
"Yes why? I mean Om, are you offended by your ugly daughter Neng Gista?"
A Zaka quietly listened to the conversation, just as Juli who did not really understand the problem.
From someone else's point of view, Endra seems to be fighting his family only for foreign women he just met the last month.
That must be the mind of all of them. Even Endra was blinded by the feeling of love for Gista so Endra could not if Gista was a little insulted.
Though not. That's not the problem with Endra.
"No, Om. I'm not angry because Auntie said Teteh so." Endra denied it softly but firmly. "Yes, I'm angry that Auntie talked bad about Gista's tea. But if that's all, I won't fight until I make Aunt hurt."
Endra would prefer to be quiet and at least not let Gista hear so that he does not hurt. You see, the mouth of Aunt Inah also can not Endra control at will. So does everyone.
"Certain why? Try to be clear so that your aunt doesn't misunderstand."
Endra sighed. He was already angry just thinking about it.
"Aunty said that Gista Tea is not sick, she just pretended to be sick let me care."
Endra immediately shook his head to see that his omnya did not understand. Even Endra turned to A Zaka and Juli, hoping to at least see their expressions understand but they didn't.
So anyway.
So that's why Gista was desperate.
There are so many people who do not understand in this world. People who look at everything is so simple but serious.
"I'm speaking as a person who is aware that health is important." Endra even pressed his voice so that everyone heard clearly and understood very well this problem was not about Endra defending Gista.
It's not about Endra not being able to stand Gista being insulted.
Not about that, for God's sake.
"There's a lot of sick people out there, Om, who might just have a headache at first. Maybe at first he was just a headache, just a headache, because of something trivial, but it appeared people who seemed as good as heart said that it was not a headache, it was just caper. If the person with the headache is horrified, there's a fifty percent chance he's killed himself."
Mr. Hanung's expression was immediately clouded.
"I don't talk about it because I chose Teteh over Aunty. Tetah Gista is a pain that three neurologists can not call the specifics what. Om understand that, right? Three neurologists who used to go to medical school, koas first, so the general practitioner used to be new he went to college again to get a specialist doctor's degree. Doctors who spend years learning can't call it sick what's wrong."
Endra's voice had unconsciously filled the room.
Make everyone quiet and focused.
"Three doctors who three hours of flying different still can not give certainty what pain. Sampe Teh Gista already felt that God would deliberately kill him indirectly. Bathing soap can not, use odol can not, even a little dryness can not."
The veins on the forehead of Endra until they appear.
"And Auntie just kind of said 'it's not sick, it's just caper'. Um, my question is, is God going to kill Teh Gista or Auntie?"
