THREE MEN AND THEIR PAST
Chat In Tourist Places
Two people who used to fall into a relationship, now appear to be silent to each other. Only the eyes that move actively look at the child who is engrossed in playing alone with simple games in that place. Occasionally the sound of their laughter was also heard when the little boy was acting funny.
It was Sandi and Arimbi, the parents of the boy, who had not yet established a halal relationship despite being predicated as parents. The presence of the boy who was originally unwanted, now instead became a way for the two to meet often. Even to spend time together, but not too often.
"Are you home every day or what, Mbi?" finally one question escaped Sandi's mouth. There was no conversation between the two, so the situation between the two of them was very quiet. Though around them look very crowded with the arrival of visitors who are mostly small families.
Although reluctant, Arimbi also answered about his daily life while joining Ms. Farida. It is clear that the life of this woman has changed. Once known to Sandi, Arimbi is a child who is quite spoiled and haughty. Even because of her arrogance, the woman refused Sandi. From that rejection, Sandi finally chose the path that became the beginning of life change Arimbi became what it is today.
"Then, who was that guy? Looks like he's very close to you and Reyhan?" Actually from the many questions that Sandi had asked, this is the main question that from yesterday disturbed the mind of Sandi when she saw Arimbi and Reyhan close to other men. Sandi was so curious that she thought that the man had a special relationship with the mother of her child.
Before replying, Arimbi stared a little sharply at the man who threw the question, then again spread his gaze towards his son who is currently trying to get along with other children who are playing there as well. "Name Mulyadi. As you can see, Reyhan is indeed quite close to the man."
"Just close to Reyhan or to his mom too?" the question of Sandi who seemed to be investigating just a moment made Arimbi snort.
"What's wrong with her mom being close? Wasn't his mother also a person who had no ties?" now replace Sandi who felt annoyed when she heard the answer from Arimbi.
"It doesn't hurt, but does she also sincerely accept and love Reyhan?"
"For that I do not know, understandably I can not read the contents of someone's heart. I'm afraid I'm wrong, 'cause I've been stuck in someone's game that looks sincere, but I was actually made into a bet until Reyhan grew up in my womb."
Instantly Sandi was flabbergasted then she smiled quite widely. Not because he was happy, the smile that Sandi developed was more towards shame, because the person told by Arimbi was himself with his past deeds. It is clear that at this time Sandi is very insinuated with the words of the mother of her child.
Arimbi smiled wryly. "You are also sorry, will not restore the situation as usual. It's all happening and Reyhan's getting bigger."
"Everything has happened, but has it not been from that supplication that the future situation can be changed for the better? Reyhan is not too big either. I don't want to, Reyhan will know how jerk his father used to be to not want to admit his presence. From now on, I can still be a good dad even if it's a little late."
"Yayaya, it's up to you how good." Arimbi chose to end the conversation by moving to his son who was calling him at the time. Arimbi also lifted his son's body and asked the child to rest first. "Is Reyhan not tired? Keep playing from before."
The boy shook his head while sipping mineral water in a bottle through a straw. Sandi smiled broadly at her adorable son. Finished mimun, Reyhan picked up one snack and moved the seat to his father's lap. "Dad, open."
Quickly, Sandi took over the snack from Reyhan's hand and opened the tip. "Eating slowly," said Sandi while handing back the food to her son and the child immediately nodded quickly.
"Where, Mbi? Have you thought about what Ms Farida said?"
"Mother's Speech? Which mother's words?"
"The one at my diner yesterday, who asked us to get married."
