While the Henky family is busy with Juli's whereabouts at their home, Nara is already in her room. She had just returned from the park to see her husband, Pradipta. After cleaning yourself and choose to roll in bed. Toh M and his two best friends were busy in his study when he came home. His mind was back on the scene after dinner last night.
POV NARA - Flash Back
Tonight Henry and Adrian have dinner at home. As usual, I prepared a large dinner for the four of us. As we enjoyed the fruit at the dinner table, as our dinner cover, my smartphone rang. M glanced for a moment at my smartphone screen and frowned.
“Pradipta? Why did he call you tonight like this?” ask M.
“Maybe he just found out that I was at his house,” I said casually.
“Oh, maybe too. Looks like your approach to the Henky pair was quite successful,” M said as he pressed the green button as well as the speaker button. Henry and Adrian looked at us seriously. But had not had time to speak, a voice sounded from across there, making the four of us close our mouths noiseless.
“Halo,” I said gently answering my husband's phone. No reply from there long enough. Then I saw the writing M proffered while glaring. “Forgour voice. You are Nara not Nada!” I was wrong to use the color of the sound. That's my real voice. I should have used Nara's voice. Huftttt may Pradipta not notice. I looked at the three men in front of me who looked a little worried. But then Henry smiled at me while touching my soft hand and gave the code to answer “hallo”
“Eh, hello. This is Mas Pradipta?” I said with the color of Nara's voice. At the end of the day there was no answer. But then came the voice of Pradipta that made me relieved. It seemed that he was unsuspecting, despite being silent. I don't know if he's conscious of that tone, or not.
“Hai Nara, Yes it's me Pradipta. How are you?” Pradipta.
“Oh, fine. What's the matter, you call tonight?” ask me with a tone I made flat and cute.
“Aneh anyway. What's wrong mas?” ask again.
“Nothing, just want to hear your voice. Oh yeah, what are you doing?” pradipta replied gently making my heart pound and it felt like my cheeks were heating up. M arrived suddenly cleared my throat slowly made me realize not to be swept away by Pradipta's appeal, as M said.
“Ehm, is ready for tomorrow's photo shoot then sleep mas,” I said a little lie. Actually the preparation for tomorrow's shoot wasn't my responsibility. Everything has been prepared by mbak Sri and I just left.
“So that afternoon you made putu mayang cake? Can you cook and make cakes?” ask Pradipta. It's true. Pradipta must have called because I was at the Hermawan residence. His family must have told me about me. Maybe he was wondering if the Nara he knew and who came to his house this afternoon was the same person.
“Yes can mas, the name of the woman should be able to cook, make cakes and other household chores. Besides being smart. A career, as long as you do not forget your duties as a housewife,” I said
smoothly. Yes this is the answer I always give if anyone asks about my cooking skills. I didn't hear an answer from Pradipta. She's speechless. I began to think, did he realize that this was Nada's answer? Wrong again, wrong!
“Why?” ask M who is confused.
“My answer is the word Nada,” I said without making a sound. Adrian and Henry just shook their heads. M smiled at me while holding my hand close to her. I kissed my hand and patted it small. I'm back to feeling calm. Alright. I need to calm down. Isn't that the usual answer that any woman can give?
