The Obsolete Bond
The Widening Distance
Sarah's confused. Why would he find a headache cure in a soes cake? Whose heart is this that put a drug like this in Sarah's souvenirs? And what's more, why headache medicine?
Sarah's hand grabbed her phone. Open the search engine page and type the trademark name of the drug he found and what it has to do with pregnancy.
"Contraindications, this drug should not be used by pregnant women. Side effects that can be caused from consumption in pregnant women include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach cramps." Sarah read what she had just met on the internet.
Click! Everything is connected into one. Sarah knows where this is going. There is someone who deliberately put the drug into the soes that Anggi eat so that Anggi experience severe abdominal pain like that. And it's as if it's all because of the cake Sarah brought.
But who did it? Anggi can not be that crazy until it will endanger the content. And Miss Risa? It also seems impossible if Miss Risa wants to harm her children and future grandchildren just for the sake of accusing Sarah who is not-no.
Sarah could only sit and stare far away. Not even 24 hours he arrived home, but new problems have occurred. Jesus, why is his life getting worse and longer?
The sound of a car entering the yard of the house.
"That must be Dito." Mumbled Sarah.
And it's true. A few minutes later Dito, Anggi, and Miss Risa came home. Anggi seemed to walk slowly holding his stomach while occasionally grimacing in pain. Either the pain is real or the other part of the play. Anggi then went into his room with his mother. Before long, Dito approached Sarah who was sitting in her room.
"Sarah, can I say something to you?" Tanya Dito hesitated.
Ah, Sarah just realized it's been a long time since the call of Darling from Dito's mouth changed to her name only. For 10 years Dito kept calling her Darling, but when Anggi came into her life, the call was now only changed to Sarah. Sarah alone, without any frills or sweet words. It is true, the human heart is like the ocean. Never be steady and always be swayed in the waves.
"Yes, why Dit?" Sarah answered. And Sarah was reluctant to act like a desperate lover by constantly calling Dito dear. If the man has changed, inevitably he also has to change, right?
Dito approached Sarah and sat down beside her.
"Would you like to move into the house next door? Let Mama Anggi can stay here to take care of Anggi." Said Dito carefully.
Sarah could not believe what she had just heard. If she could, Sarah would cut off her ear and throw it away because Dito's words were so hot. Sarah looked at Dito in disbelief.
"Seriously? You're crazy, Dit?" Sarah asked coldly.
Dito.
"I don't want to. I am still your wife and I deserve to live here. Even legally, your rightful wife is I'm not Anggi. So I have every right to be here." Sarah answered without looking at Dito.
"I feel like I've been patient enough to let you act unfairly rich gini, Dit. You want it every night with Anggi, okay, that's fine. I never had that problem. You are more affectionate and attention with Anggi even I have no problem. But this time you missed Dit. You want to evict me from my own house?" Attack Sarah with a tone that begins to rise.
Dito remained silent. A man who is not firm with his decisions will forever remain so. He will always be confused as to which side.
"Who asked me to move? Anggie? Or Miss Risa?" Sarah asked curiously.
"Mama Anggi asked." Dito finally opened his mouth.
"What reason?" Sarah asked back.
"Mama is afraid Anggi why if there is you in this house. Mama says you're always negligent when it comes to Anggi." Obviously Dito slowly.
"For that soes cake?" Ask Sarah full of questions.
Dito just nodded slowly.
"Originally you know, I found a headache medicine in the soes cake that Anggi ate earlier. I'm not that crazy until I give stale food to Anggi, bego!" Sarah is running out of patience.
Dito's eyes were wide. She was shocked by what Sarah said. Although now he is so far away with Sarah, but Dito is sure Sarah will not lie about things like this.
"who's who? Who put the medicine in Anggi's cake?" Tanya Dito did not believe it.
"Well, how do I know, Dito! If I knew the guy, I would have slapped a stone!" Sarah said with a sigh.
Dito thought hard. Who's crazy to put drugs in the Anggi cake? Anggi himself did it? Or maybe his mother? Dito couldn't find the answer.
"I don't want to move. If you still have me moving, I'll report all your rottenness to your mother, Papa, and extended family." Threaten Sarah while leaving Dito.
The man could only be silent alone in Sarah's room. He cursed himself who was too easily swayed in making decisions. Even now Dito was confused as to who he should trust. In the mother-to-be of her child or in the woman she has known for almost half her age?
...****************...
"I'm even grateful Dit, meaning I don't bother taking care of your favorite wife who is rich behavior of the Kindergarten child. Thank you yes!" Said Sarah indifferently as she passed away leaving Dito and Anggi.
A furious look on Anggi's face heard Sarah's words and it felt like Sarah wanted to laugh. Just like a kindergarten kid who didn't get the toy of his dreams. Sarah knows exactly where Anggi and Miss Risa will take the game. But Sarah was not a weak woman they could just annihilate. If it's a plant, maybe Sarah's a stubborn pest that they'll have a hard time destroying. Please let out all the tricks they have because Sarah can also overcome them in a thousand ways.
And by agreement anyway, Sarah really doesn't care about anything that happens to Anggi. One time, Anggi looked troubled to take his equipment at the top of the closet. Her growing belly severely restricted her movements. And coincidentally that day, Miss Risa was going to the market to buy food that Anggi was craving. So at home there are only Anggi and Sarah.
"Uhhhh! Uh! Uh!" Anggi tried to reach the top of the kitchen cabinet.
Sarah could clearly see it but she chose silence. Watching him while shaking his legs relaxed. But Anggi seems to be getting more and more attention and keeps complaining.
"Want me to help you?" Sarah shouted from the middle of the room.
Anggi nodded weakly. Act as if the victim. Sarah walked back to Anggi.
"Sana, keep 10 meters away from me. We can't be whacky. You'll miscarry." Sarah cuek.
Sarah then took a jar containing pregnant biscuits that Dito placed at the top of the kitchen cabinet. He then threw the jar at Anggi who slightly caught it.
"Take it. Back there, don't beat me. I'll be considered breaking the contract."
Sarah almost laughs amusedly at Anggi's clumsy behavior who is confused whether he should thank her or not. Let it be. Let Anggi deter and get hit by the stone because it has become a spoiled woman who is upsetting. Isn't this all a request from Anggi and his mother?
...****************...
Sarah was watching the drama while eating her dinner in the living room. While Dito, Anggi, and Bu Risa are having dinner together in the kitchen. Sarah's phone rings. He quickly lifted it.
"Yes, hello?" Sarah asked without seeing the name of the caller.
"Hello, Nduk. How you doing?" Ask the caller.
Sarah checked her phone screen. Confirm the name on the screen. His eyes darted to see who was calling him.
"Ah Mama, well Ma. Sarah's the same Dito's good." Sarah replies with a soft laugh.
The three people who were eating his meal immediately turned their attention to Sarah. They're listening to Sarah's conversation with whoever it is. And Sarah moved her lips without a sound like she was hinting at Dito.
"Mommy phone!" Sarah said quietly without a sound.
"Whose mom?" Dito asked confusedly with an equally small voice.
"You're bego!" Sarah hinted in annoyance as she pointed at Dito.
Dito surprised. He immediately walked towards Sarah but Anggi held her as if he did not like it.
"Where are you going?" Whine Anggi spoiled.
"Kesana. My mama called. Just stay away." Said Dito releasing Anggi's hand which was holding his wrist.
Anggi pouting. He doesn't like to see Dito get too close to Sarah. But this was the only wall that Anggi could not penetrate or destroy. Mom Dito. Never mind blessing Dito and Anggi's relationship, the woman doesn't even know that her son has two wives! And Mama Dito loved Sarah as much as his own daughter. Somehow Anggi had to pass through that one obstacle.
"The only obstacle that hasn't been broken, Ma." Anggi muttered softly to Miss Risa.
Miss Risa just nodded while glancing sharply at Sarah and Dito who were sitting together while chatting on the phone.
"By the way, why call malem-malem, Ma? Is there anything important?" Ask Dito to his mother.
The woman across the phone seemed to laugh happily before continuing her words.
"Three more days, Mama's going to Ambon!"
