THREE MEN AND THEIR PAST
Picnic Preparation
As planned, today Arimbi and Bu Farida are preparing to leave with Rafi's family. At first Arimbi was very reluctant to join, but because his son was afraid later even fussy if he went only with the Sandi family, so inevitably the woman participated.
Maybe if Sandi came along, Arimbi would have been much calmer had he not gone on a picnic. But unfortunately, Rafi's parents, especially her father, strictly forbid Sandi to participate. Want to protest like anything, Sandi's father remained firm on his stance. Because alsaan was also Arimbi decided to accompany his son.
"Where, Mbi?" asked Ms. Farida who had just finished making fried food for a picnic. She and her husband also took part in the picnic this time. At first they are also reluctant to join, but due to the very subtle coercion of her mother Sandi, Bu Farida and her husband finally agree to accompany Arimbi and also her granddaughter.
"What about you, Mom?" ask Arimbi who is preparing milk for her child's provisions. From now on, the woman will no longer mess around if Reyhan's milk runs out. For the milk and other Reyhan needs, it has been taken over by Sandi. In fact, last night, Sandi's parents bought Reyhan so much milk. Enough for supplies in the next few months.
"Your current feelings, after meeting Sandi's family?" ask Bu Farida again while moving tofu, bakwan and also tempe fried into the container for supplies.
For a moment Arimbi was silent. He pulled the chair under the table in front of him and sat there and looked at his son who was playing with his new toy. "No idea, Mom. I'm confused."
Ms. Farida smiled faintly. His hands are still putting one by one fried until it runs out. "Maybe if Mom were you, I'd be grateful."
Arimbi immediately looked up, looking at the middle-aged woman who was currently moving other dishes in the form of shrimp mixed kale. "Thank you why, Mom?"
Ms. Farida smiled again and she just stared for a moment at Arimbi. "It looks like Sandi's parents are good people. Although his father looked fierce, but he was not fierce, just firm. Not protecting his son's mistakes. Even though they look like rich people, they can actually take a stance that does not harm either party. That's what I see."
Arimbi did not respond. He looked back at his own splashy son with a car-shaped toy and there were eight pieces, as well as some ancient animals as his enemies. There are also super hero figures but instead made commoners and victims of the violence of the ancient beast.
"Are my parents going to approve of us too easily? The victim here is my parents, Mom. They must still clearly remember what Sandi did to me."
Ms. Farida sat in the other chair but there was still one table with Arimbi. His eyes occasionally also looked at Reyhan with all his cute and adorable mannerisms. "If your parents can be mature, they will make wise decisions. It also depends on Sandi later how to deal with your parents."
"That's exactly what I'm afraid of, ma'am.What reaction will Mamah show when she hears I have such a big child? I'm afraid they're hanging."
Ms. Farida chuckled. "But your parents already know you're pregnant when you go, so where might they hang. They didn't tell you to abort, did they?"
"Yes, Mom. They just thought I wouldn't be able to take care of my son. What else my aunt is like a doormat, I swear I'm all because I smear the family's good name."
"Yes, this means that this is your chance to prove to your extended family, if you are good until now without them. Even Reyhan grew up to be a funny kid. She's the first grandchild for your parents, too. Don't worry, you still have a father and a mother who always supports you."
Arimbi immediately smiled and at that moment they heard Mr. Seno shout. "Reyhan, Eyang has come this way."
Reyhan immediately left the toy even though he did not understand who it was. The arrival of the Sandi family, of course, became the spotlight of the neighbors including the man who wanted to play to Arimbi's house.
