THE FORMER SHADOW

THE FORMER SHADOW
33. Badrina Serba Salah


Arsahaka went into his office that he used to use to complete office tasks that accumulate. The room still looks well preserved. There are not many books and documents in it because all Arsahaka has brought to the house of his mother, Nuraini.


The only remaining items are teak wood properties, such as benches and work desks, as well as one long sofa and some artificial plants.


Arshaka stood straight up to the window with both hands in his pants pocket. He had not been able to exchange work clothes, in fact he was tired of wearing those clothes all day. However, in this house no longer stored his clothes.


Coupled with his rather chaotic heart condition, his rage grew. The appreciation of the board of directors earlier today was as if it meant nothing at all to the boosters of his positive mood.


"What do you want to talk about?" Badrina's voice a few steps behind her body made Arshaka want to throw a lot of sentences.


However, Arshaka needs to calm himself down first before conveying the contents of his heart and mind. Arshaka sighed a few times while closing her eyes.


Badrina waited for Arshaka to say something, which Arshaka just kept quiet, Badrina said, "Tomorrow I have to take Canta to school. If no one is in-"


"Where is Canta school?" cut Arshaka straight off, after flipping face to face with Badrina.


Badrina stared at Arshaka's bead which shone a sharp glare at her. That look made Badrina awkward, but she tried to behave as habitually as possible.


"In Kindergarten Tunas Bangsa."


Arshaka turned the other way, the suspicion that Badrina moved her daughter again proved. A moment later Arshaka said, "Why not at Kindergarten Pelita Kasih Bunda, not that school that you recommended me to?" ask Arshaka. Badrina read that Arshaka was in an upset mood when she asked.


Badrina's forehead frowned. "It is not you who asked me to find another school because the cost will be large at Kindergarten Pelita Kasih Bunda. How the hell?" Badrina asked back with a tone of objection.


"The school you choose is not the best kind of kindergarten in the city, even the school is just standing. Do you believe his teachers are able to give the best for Canta? Previously, it was not good even though it included Kindergarten which is quite well known to many people," said Arshaka explained his objections.


"Unknown does not mean that school is bad. Canta is happy at his new school. Have you asked your daughter?" ask Badrina. He did not accept being the wrong place Arshaka. "Oh, not yet yes, too busy with his own affairs," Badrina said with her sidekick and her head looked up.


"Don't provoke a fight, Rina," said Arshaka, shaking her waist. Arshaka feels his patience is tested by Badrina.


"Who provoked the quarrel? You're not looking for a school for Canta. Suddenly comes commenting on his new school Canta without knowing anything. You're the one who provoked a fight with me!" bursts Badrina, she does not like the way her ex-husband communicates about the Cantara school.


"Is it wrong that I want a good school for Canta?" tanya Arshaka pointed at herself. Both begin to get carried away by negative emotions, feeling equally right from their respective points of view.


"No. Not wrong. Your communication sentence cornered me. It was as if I was not so good at finding a school for Canta," lamented Badrina continuing to chim in Arshaka's speech.


"Lantas, is your communication with me good? Deciding for yourself the purpose of the Canta school. I know a good kind of kindergarten in this town, Rina, even I took part in finding a kindergarten for my friend's son." Arshaka insists that it was Badrin who had bad communication with him. According to Arshaka as the person who took care of Cantara, Badrina pro actively informs her about all the changes in the decision concerning Cantara.


Badrina could not stand the tense discussion that led to a fight.


Badrina couldn't stand lingering communication with Arshaka. He turned his body and stepped towards the door without saying goodbye.


When Badrina had half opened the door, from behind Arshaka suddenly closed the door with a loud thud, Badrina was stunned on the spot.


"I'm not done talking." Badrina's body was flipped by Arshaka with a loud jolt. "You're accusing me of abandoning Canta?" arshaka asked in anger while pointing at Badrina.


Badrina tried to answer calmly. He could see the angry signals from Arshaka's eyeballs. "You misunderstood. I have pondered your words about the cost of Canta school will be great when attending TK Pelita Kasih Bunda. If at the current school, the money you transferred, the rest can be saved for Canta's future."


"Every month I always transfer money to Canta, never late from the 10th. What are you afraid of?" sue Arshaka, she wants Badrina to be honest with her.


"Ee. yes. But... but if later you find a partner and have another child, not necessarily they will receive the large amount that you transfer to the life of Cantara," explained Badrina, "I hope we understand each other" he added, Badrina's voice weakened.


Arshaka. He did not expect Badrina's mind to go that far, he just did not think to establish relations with other women, because he still had communication problems with Badrina.


Even there, Badrinah who currently has a relationship with another man.


"Don't switch the subject. When it comes to life partners, who among us is married now?" sindir Arshaka who was rewarded with a sharp shot from Badrina. "Give home addresses and invite other men on weekends, signifying nothing but a wedding banquet." A sentence with a heavy snort was thrown Arshaka.


"You read my cell phone messages?!" accuse Badrina with a tense look. What Arshaka said as Badrina recalled was the content of her conversation with Hafez.


"If you're married, yes, it's okay. But pick a nice father-to-be for Canta," ledek Arshaka, "not a guy with kids everywhere. You heard well, Rina, if you choose the wrong life partner and harm Canta, I make sure to take care of custody for my son," Arshaka threatened with annoyance at the fact Badrina was approached by Hafez.


Arshaka's jaw tightens. He felt it was enough to tell about future plans when Badrina chose the wrong life partner.


"You always threaten me!" yells restrained Badrina. "You have always been my shadow, were you unhappy with this divorce until my heart still interfered in my affairs!" he added with a roar of breath that made his shoulders go up and down.


"Self-manage!" arshaka Commandments.


The man pushed Badrina's body to the side. He opened the door of the study and stepped out. Arshaka headed for his car back home with a grim sadness left for Badrina.


While Badrina, sitting leaning against the wall near the door. Her tears came out. He is upset with himself, as well as Arshaka, and the conditions of the conflict that still entangle them.


Badrina is sad, always communication with Arshaka ends badly. He was sad, Arshaka did not appreciate his efforts to be a mother who paid attention to the future of his son, even humbled himself by accusing kebelet of marriage, but that was not the purpose of Badrina.
