The Beginning of the Catastrophe
THE BEGINNING OF THE LIPSTICK PATCH OF BAB12
“Serah Mom! I just want to collect Mom's promise that will make me the only wife in Mas Aji's heart! If you can't, then I'll do it myself.”
Ayu left the room and returned to the car before driving it aimlessly. She circled around before deciding to stop right in front of the Annisa Beauty Clinic. He stared fixedly at the building in front of him while tightly gripping the steering wheel. Then, back forward his car to split the streets that began to creep.
Tired of driving aimlessly, Ayu stops in front of a restaurant. He went down and stepped in while circulating his gaze. Then, he was surprised to see someone he knew so well. He eroded the distance and immediately sat in front of him.
“This place is empty, right, Doc?”
Kirana turned her gaze from the food in front of her to Ayu. Then, nod a glance before returning to enjoy the dish. In front of him, Ayu grinned and waved to order food. Before long, a waiter came and asked for an order.
“Samain aja kayak have my friend it, yes? Thanks.”
After the servant left, Ayu stared fixedly at Kirana who was not disturbed by his arrival. Kirana immediately finished eating and got up from sitting down. However, Ayu held her hand.
“Can we talk to you for a minute, Doc? There is something important I want to say.”
“Sorry, I still have a lot of business after this. Excuse me.”
Kirana releases Ayu's hand and steps back. However, Ayu's voice that greeted the dimly managed to make her flinch for a moment.
“And I brought important news about the doctor's husband, you know.”
Kirana grinned and stepped back. Feeling neglected, Ayu got up from her seat and confronted Kirana.
“What if I know that the doctor's husband is remarried to another woman?”
Kirana smiled faintly and shook her head. Although deep down in his heart the pain was like being pierced with pain, but he had to be calm and try to hide his wounds. Kirana's outstretched hand held Ayu's arms and looked at her fixedly.
“I trust my husband. He must be loyal and will never betray.”
“Oh, yes? What if the Doctor is wrong?”
Kirana let go of her hand and walked past Ayu. But the woman came back to him.
“What if the woman is a person the Doctor knows?”
Tired of being piled up after a long day of work, plus Ayu's attitude that began to drain emotions, made Kirana sigh heavily. He could not stand being bullied anymore. He closed his eyes for a moment before staring intently at the woman in front of him.
“Where is your husband, Kirana? At a time like this he even disappeared and could not be contacted.”
Kirana reviewed a faint smile before rubbing the back of the hand of the man who became her first love.
“Mas Aji still much work possible, Pa. So I didn't get to HP.”
“Halah, what job? How important is that job compared to you, Kirana? Just so you know, yeah, Hendra said Aji's company was on the verge of bankruptcy. Many payments to clients are delayed because existing funds are somehow hidden to where your same husband is.”
Kirana closed her eyes for a moment, trying to reduce the tension. Then, look back at Teguh. However, not yet to open the mouth, the sound of the door being opened made them compactly turn their head. Aji stood in the doorway carrying a basket of fruit.
“Ma, Pa, sorry Aji is late. There is still a lot of work earlier in the office, continue to get stuck in traffic also fit to come here.”
Aji placed the fruit basket on the nightstand, also charging her phone before kissing the reverence on the back of Widya's hand.
Firmly take a deep breath and exhale slowly before getting up and looking fixedly at his daughter-in-law. Seeing the anger that was emanating in the eyes of the father, Kirana clasped her fingers tightly.
"Ma ... Kirana please, don't.”
Slowly, Teguh let go of Kirana's hand, then eroded the distance and stared intently at Aji. Meanwhile, Kirana shuffled to sit with the mother. The woman's eyes were already wet with tears. He didn't want anything bad to happen to two men of that generation.
“Pa, Kirana please.”
Firmly turned a glance before looking back at Aji who was fluttering in front of him. Anger has controlled her since arriving at the hospital when she did not see the daughter-in-law next to Kirana. The middle-aged man snorted softly before squeezing firmly both shoulders of the son-in-law.
“Since the beginning Papa has advised that you take care of Kirana, love Kirana, and never leave her. At that time you answered in earnest, so Papa released Kirana for you. But why now you seem to ignore your own wife, Aji?”
He puts pressure on every word that comes out of his mouth. His heart was wounded to see the child lying alone without Aji present. Her heart shrieked more and more bitterly when Kirana's pale face was present in the eye sinks. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly before returning to say.
“Papa know office work is important, but is Kirana not more important, Aji? Is that how busy you are now?”
Aji looked down in front of the in-laws. He did not argue, nor did he reproduce all the words of Teguh, because it was the truth. Aji has lost a lot of time with his wife and hasn't been able to fix it. He deserves to be rebuked, even deserves to be scolded because there have been too many mistakes made.
“Sorry, Pa. Aji knows she's done wrong.”
“Papa hope this is the last time you do this, Aji. If you feel Kirana is no longer worthy of being a wife, never hurt her heart and physique, because Papa will not be willing to do that. Please give him back to Papa well. Papa will cheerfully take it back.”
