The Roof You Promised
Section 31 - Don't Make a Ruckus


Farhan took a slow breath. His gaze was blankly staring at the floor under his feet. Pantofel shoes that he had not had time to exchange with a more comfortable one, he tapped gently on the floor below him.


Are you happy, Rae.


Actually, what kind of life are you living.


Again he took a rough breath.


Lean your back to the waiting room bench right in front of the operating room. As if closing his eyes was not dark enough, he also closed both eyes with his right arm.


The sound of the approaching footsteps did not make Farhan look up. It felt too lazy even just to greet others.


"What is Rama's condition?"


Tania Voice. Farhan had to open his eyes.


"Eitherway. Not a single officer came out of there." Farhan turned his head towards the operating room, then glanced at his wrist.


"The conditions aren't that bad, are they? Why so long?" Tania sounded worried, she took a sitting position beside Farhan.


While Farel just stood leaning his back on the wall and his two hands that he put in his pants pocket.


Farhan shook his head slowly. "The doctor hasn't said anything. Since last night, I have not asked Rama either. He's too weak." He looked back at the operating room.


"Haissh is a fucking asshole! Who he's really fighting with, just look I'll beat him up myself later if it's cured." Farhan said his friend was still looking at the operating room.


"Will he be okay?" Farel, who had been silent for a while, finally spoke. The worry was obvious from his tone. "What about his parents?"


Farhan rubbed his face with both hands, cupping him for long. "He'll be fine. He must be fine, so that his father can beat him."


The three of them comforted and strengthened themselves. Indeed, none of them is confident in the condition of his best friend.

Aurorae crumpled her body. A moment of flipping through the body looking for a comfortable position and then pull the blanket up to the limit of the neck.


He grunts. It's almost eight o'clock in the night and Herjuno hasn't contacted him yet.


Where exactly is that man.


Been busy? Much work? Suddenly meeting?


Although Aurorae's mouth said that several times with a smile, but deep down she knew something else was holding her husband back.


Not about work.


Aurorae just doesn't want to be pitied.


Don't want to look pathetic in front of anyone.


He started to sob. Strongly bite his lower lip so that no sound escapes.


Once you Mas.


Is it that hard to send a message?


He was still deep in his own mind. Until the phone vibrates sound.


Honey forgive me, Megumi's sick. I didn't open my phone because I had to go to the hospital.


A message from Herjuno, making Aurorae's heart feel in remat.


Is it okay to leave tomorrow? I'll be home after lunch tomorrow. I'm sorry, yes.


Aurorae's getting sick of it. He throws his phone rough in any direction. And sobbing sobbing sobbing myself under the blanket.

"I'm going back to the office." Dea packed up her things that were on the table.


"There's still thirty minutes left, why the rush?" Aurorae snorted making Dea turn her head.


Dira who was also there was checking some orders and stopped his work.


"Say, you're not upset that Madam Dea is going back to the office, are you?" Dira pulls the chair closer.


"What's wrong?" Dea connect.


Just a quick glance, until it stopped by itself.


"You quarreled?" dira asked curiously, and Aurorae shook her head.


"Tell me right, my job is a lot of gosh." Dea is upset.


Aurorae. "Have it, just come back!"


Dea took a slow breath, then approached. Swiping dear Aurorae head.


"What's my dear sister? Your brother should be back to work soon. So if there's anything you want to tell me, say it!" he asked gently by blinking his eyes.


"Darken!" Dira chuckles.


Then Aurorae told me everything that happened yesterday. By crying of course. Repeatedly he stuttered because of the sobbing in the middle of his story.


Dea took a rough breath.


"Are you love or stupid? Instead of crying silently by yourself, why don't you just scold your husband! Her hair, her face slap. I love to hurt myself!"


Aurorae was sobbing.


"Sir, there's no need to scold Aurorae like that. He's already so sad." Dira mediates.


"Supply him. Tell me how you fought for your household but it ended up in vain because of that woman named Megumi!" Dea squealed in annoyance.


"Stop crying! Or I'll punch Herjuno in the face in front of everyone." Threatened him.


Dea passed by still cursing annoyance. He was indeed a few years older than Herjuno, calling him Pak only for manners because Herjuno was his superior in the office.


Aurorae was crying louder with Dira patting her back, calming.

Herjuno was standing in front of the door when Aurorae's car entered the courtyard. His gaze was sharp, it was obvious that he was upset.


The Aurorae took a deep breath, and threw it away slowly before getting out of the car.


"Where have you been? I've called so many times why not answer?" flocked Herjuno as Aurorae stepped towards him.


"I'm sorry." That's Aurorae's only answer as she continued to step in, past Herjuno.


"You angry? What's up now?"


Herjuno questions automatically stop Aurorae's steps. The woman snorted. Laughing without looking.


"What else is it? What else did you say?"


Again the Aurorae took a slow breath. Sweeping dear her bulging stomach.


"Go home, I'm tired." Aurorae continued her steps towards the second floor of the house.


"You kicked me out?" ask Herjuno while continuing to follow his wife. "I rushed here to leave my job, and you kicked me out?"


Aurorae still hasn't answered anything.


"You were part of SG too, you know exactly what we're busy doing at the end of each month!"


"I took my time here, and you kicked me out?"


"Tell me, what exactly was my fault? What's your problem?"


"It's no problem, only I'm afraid your sick wife needs you." Aurorae pulls the door handle, and Herjuno comes right in front of the Aurorae.


"You're angry because Megumi's sick? Look, no one wants to get sick, it's an emergency, Megumi needed me more yesterday."


Aurorae returned her husband's sharp gaze.


"So now I ask you to come home, maybe your wife is dying!" his voice trembled, there was a cry he was trying to hide.


"The Aurorae Genina !" Herjuno screeched , with his eyeballs glaring at the Aurorae.


"Go home, don't make a fuss!" the woman was undaunted, there was no look of shock or fear when Herjuno snapped at her. What was clearly visible was only a face full of anger and disappointment.
