The Vegetable Buyer's a Milyader
Must How?
Kamil drags the sick Farhan to Alika's house. She wanted her mother to advise the man she called her sister, thinking it was not right for Farhan to be her brother because his behavior was worse than that of a child.
”What happened?” Alika was surprised to see the condition of her son with a circular bandage on his head. ”Aren't you supposed to be in the hospital?”
Kamil sat Farhan on the sofa. ”Teach him how ethics meet Ma!”
”Why are you talking so Kamil?”
”Ask him Ma, why am I so angry now,” Kamil said.
Alika arranged for Farhan, the child was the same as his father did not even change at all why he was determined to do bad things while his parents just separated because he did the same thing as he did today, cheated on!
Farhan lowered his head even less and less having the guts to stare at this woman in front of him. ”Sorry Ma,” is even barely audible.
”Mama doesn't need an apology from you Farhan, who you want to change for the better. Don't you love Alea anymore?”
Farhan raised his head to look at Alika. ”Ma, i ... ”
”If you no longer love him then let him go do not make the same mistake as your papa!” cut Alika immediately made Farhan flinch.
”Mama's right Bang, actually I'm upset with your attitude. Be a man of standing, where you at the beginning of the first you ask papa to marry yourself to the woman. You're the one who urged Papa to ask Alea right away? Now you must take responsibility, not ignore it.”
”He himself asked,” said Farhan did not accept if Kamil was angry with him.
”Gosh, he asked because the brother was indifferent to him if only Brother paid attention to him, Kamil was sure that would not happen and Alea was still with you.”
”So you blame myself for all this?” Farhan did not accept.
”It's not about being wrong and right but the fact that Brother ignored him.” Kamil immediately got up from his seat and said goodbye to Alika.
”Where's Alea?” ask Alika.
”There is in place of Daren Ma, so mama does not have to worry about her,” replied Kamil.
”Jeez why is she at home a man who is not her husband.” Alika was suddenly upset with her daughter-in-law.
”Ma, if not there then where? It was impossible for him to go back abroad and his parents knew what was happening here. Then, does Kamil also have to accommodate her in Kamil's house, how does my wife Ma feel?”
Kamil knew if Alika was worried about Alea's circumstances but it was impossible for him to help fully considering that he was already tied to Medina, Kamil was really keeping his wife's heart from wanting Medina to be jealous.
"Ma, he also has a place to stay here if he wants he can stay there just that he does not want to do it because it could be any time Bang Farhan comes to him, he said,” clear Kamil.
”Have better you guys finish your own business, you are adults mama does not want to come dizzy,” said Alika made Kamil chuckle.
”Who also told mama to think, already Kamil must go home because Medina is home alone. Assalamualaikum.”
’’Waalaikumussalam.” Alika only looked at her son's body until he left the gate.

”I'm sorry because of me you were affected,” said Alea looks tired all day can not rest at all.
”No problem, I have the room ready first yes.” Daren immediately turned towards the guest room preparing it for Alea even though the room was already clean Daren wanted to ensure comfort for the woman.
”It's clean, please.” Daren invites Alea to rest but Alea blocks Daren's arm.
”What else is it?” ask Daren.
”Thank you, sorry to bother you. I'll be back to my apartment if things have improved.”
”No need, you can stay here whenever you want. And ... Are you sure you're resigning from the office?”
Alea nodded. ”I will ask for compensation from my father so no need to worry about my finances.”
For what reason would he have to fight for this relationship if in fact he had to fight Farhan in the end, he felt hesitant if he had to deal with the Hamid family. But unfortunately for Alea he had felt since entering college only Alea was more choosy Kamil than him. Should he give up?
Daren chose to clean himself up rather than think things through. Just as he took off his shirt, Alea had already called out to him again.
”Eh? Sorry I don't know if you ... ”
”No problem, what's up?”
”I need soap, in the bathroom empty.”
”Gosh, sorry I forgot to fill it up for a while I picked it up first.” Daren hurried to the kitchen to pick up the soap that was in the lower cabinet and immediately gave it to Alea.
”This, after shower rest immediately!” said Daren pushing his body slowly to go to his room.
Almost an hour Daren was in his room he felt confused about how to face Alea even though he really wanted to be with her but not in this condition.
Daren went out of the room the situation was quiet, maybe Alea had gone to bed and turned on the tv she thought it was a good idea with a dim light watching the ongoing ball broadcast.
"You haven't slept?” Alea approached Daren and sat on the sofa making Daren who was in a sleeping position immediately wake up.
”What's up, do you need anything?” ask Daren.
”No, I just couldn't close my eyes so I went out for a drink but saw the tv light up I came straight here.”
”Tomorrow you don't go anywhere, if you need something just say.”
Momentary silence.
”Why are you good to me?” Alea lowered her head around the glass in her hand.
Daren looked back at Alea, ”Then what should I do? Letting him keep hurting you?”
Alea shook his head slowly, ”There must be a reason right?”
”Didn't I explain earlier at the airport if I ... ”
”What?”
”Jeez Alea please don't be like a child, the reason I explained if I love you,” said Daren.
”Thank you.” Alea hugged Daren spontaneously making her surprised by the woman.
”Ish, shut up if you forget you're pregnant!” annoyed Daren but not with Alea who actually sat on Daren's lap.
”Do not tease me quickly Rest in your room.” Daren trying to ask the woman to leave immediately was impossible for him to do such a foolish thing with the woman in front of him at the moment.
”I don't want to please don't reject it!”
”Gosh Alea, please don't make me angry understand,” shrewdly Daren their distance is very close even Alea deliberately eroded the distance between the two of them. Both seemed to drift before finally the phone call dropped the two.
”Sorry I have to take the phone first.” Daren got up and left Alea for the balcony while Alea herself looked annoyed if the phone did not shake for sure she had done it with Daren.
Daren came in, grabbed his jacket and his car keys to get out.
”Where are you going?” asked Alea to see Daren in a hurry.
”Sorry I have to go out for a while there are things I have to finish, you go to bed first don't wait for me.”
Daren immediately came out leaving Alea who was sculpting in her place. ”Is he avoiding me?”
