Khati looked towards the middle-aged man. He felt sorry for the man, because he had lied to him. What happens when he's caught lying to Julia's father? Is that guy gonna be mad at her? Where exactly, the real Khati? Why didn't her husband tell her the truth?
--------+++--------
The bell rang. Kati opened the door of her room peeking out. Just then across the room, the middle-aged man came out and coded for the woman to wait. Julia's own father opened the door that was given a safety lock. He peeked out. Who else if not Jun, and he was not surprised.
"Can I come in, Pa?"
The middle-aged man closed the door and unlocked the safety lock. He let Jun in. The judge saw his wife peeking at the door of the room. Julia's father leads Jun to the sofa. They're sitting there.
"I wish I'd heard the good news." The middle-aged man tidied his clothes while sitting down. He is no longer a stick.
"I'm sorry that so far my welcome to Papa is not good, but I ask Papa to listen to my request. I've just been appointed chief justice and my work is incredibly busy. Plus my parents who just left on a business trip, it's equally difficult. I want to set the time, but my time is determined by the office, so I can't just change the schedule that already exists. So did my parents.
So far I have tried to legalize it with serial marriage so that it is in accordance with existing and in religion it is legal. Regarding the party and legalizing it in public I am not kidding. Didn't I already legalize it in public by announcing it widely?
Next, Papa's wish will be realized, but give me three months. I will also do everything I can so that the party can be done before three months. Please, Papa. Don't separate us, we can't. Moreover, we've been husband and wife in the eyes of religion."
The middle-aged man smiled slantedly by throwing his gaze to the side. Then he looked back at Jun and leaned his body forward. "You think I'd be impressed by the talk just now? Nah! I'm very disappointed."
"I work with the government, Papa. Not a privately owned company. Doesn't Papa want Julia to marry someone who has an important position? Not a random person who is easily oppressed?"
"Why don't you just be a businessman? You have a choice." It turns out that Julia's father also checked who Jun was before meeting.
"Papa, I don't like doing business."
"Well! You always avoid!" Julia's father leaned back while folding his hands on her chest.
For a moment they were silent. There is no solution from the two to make Khati step forward to talk. "Father, how ...."
The middle-aged man looked over. "Julia! Go back to your room!"
The clash dampened the woman's steps forward. Slowly he retreated and returned to his room, but he kept peeking out from behind the door.
"Mr ...."
"Otherwise?" The man turned his head towards Jun with the rest of the clash.
The judge was guilty. "Please understand us. We're already married. Give Julia back to me, Pa."
"Later after three months! Well, now you can get out!" throw Julia's father away.
The judge sighed softly. "At least, let me hug my wife. Can you, Pa?" persuade Jun who was beginning to despair.
"Later legalized! It's already! If you're done, please come out! You remember the exit, don't you?" ledek the middle-aged man raised his eyebrows.
The judge reluctantly stepped towards the door. He could still see Khati who had her head out staring at him. Three months, not a short time but Julia's father was so stubborn and unwilling to be bargained.
Now how else would he outsmart all of this? After three months, what if Khati's sentence goes on because the investigation never finds the killer? They'll be looking for Khati, and by then the investigation could be on her. He let Khati out and the woman disappeared. Especially if the original Julia is found and there are two Julia. He finished himself for daring to take the prisoner out of his cell.
Suddenly, Khati ran to her husband. He carried Jun's jacket and put it on the man's shoulder. "Be careful?" he said with a sad look.
Jun took off his jacket. He put the jacket on his wife's shoulder and put it on. He then held his wife tightly. I was heartily pervading the embrace as it was about to part. It's hard to part with Jun but what can he do? It's just a doll that has no voice.
The sight was not separated from both of Julia's father's netra. He even saw the judge kiss his wife's lips. "Hey, already! I don't allow you much more than this!" her word. The man stood up and laid his waist. "Julia, comein!"
Khati. He retreated and ran to the room. Jun was too happy. "Assalamu'alaikum."
"Getishalight."
-----------+++---------
The middle-aged man stared at the window of his room. Seen tall buildings with lights that illuminate the road so that the night atmosphere in the city of Jakarta looks beautiful. Since meeting Julia he felt something was different.
Julia was so submissive, inversely proportional to the Julia she knew. His son was a bit of a dissident and a tomboy in dress. Only at certain times do women like to dress sexy.
This Julia is more feminine, polite, and even when dressed a little openly, the impression is like a sweet woman rather than looking sexy. He was also obedient as if the man had met someone else. His face was also younger than his age.
Actually, the real Julia is 28 years old and she is only 26 years old. Jun is 29 years old, so it's not strange that Khati looks young, because she is younger than Julia.
The middle-aged man pinched his forehead. What should it be, now? He was on a business trip, but saw the news of his son marrying the judge without his knowledge. He flew straight to Jakarta. Should he take Julia along on a business trip this time?
The man stood up and stepped outside the room. He came to his son's room. Without knocking he opened the door which turned out to be unlocked.
Khati has fallen asleep. He came to the bed and looked at the woman who had fallen asleep. There was a trail of dried tears on that smooth white cheek.
Am I wrong in separating them? Julie seemed to love her husband very much. Maybe this change all came from that judge. Jun managed to make Julia a better woman.
The man smiled a little. He tidied up a blanket that covered the woman's small body, but it turned out that the small movements woke Khati. The woman was surprised to see the man's face and sat down for a moment. "Eh, sir, what's wrong?"
The man laughed. "I'm your father, Julie. Did you forget?"
Kati immediately realized. "Eh, sorry, Pa." He rubbed his eyes.
"Come, sleep. It's night." It's night." The man covered the body of the woman who was lying back on the bed. He closed it to the shoulder.
"Thank you, Pa."
The man rubbed the head of Khati gently. "Sleep."
"Papa too."
The man smiled broadly. "Yes, yeah. After Papa sees you sleeping."
Although uncomfortable, the woman tried to sleep quickly. It took him a long time to feel the bed swaying lightly and the sound of the door slowly opening. When he opened his eyes, the man had walked out of the room.
