"What happened again, Mom?" Kania is getting curious. There must be something surprising beyond belief. "I don't know how heavy Mas's past is, but maybe Mas can tell me in detail so I don't guess.
For a moment Rangga was silent. Highlighting both of Kania's eyes showed the same thing as her speech. "That night, I was there too." Rangga deliberately paused his words. Once seen both eyes Kania perfectly rounded. "We came into the room because my brother asked. He said there was something important to talk about. We came out unbeknownst to Dad in the middle of the night."
Kania's mouth could no longer speak. It is too tragic to be a story in writing. Maybe the one reading could feel the pain too. The gorge is deep, and ironically Rangga is free-falling there.
Rangga was convinced by the decision to be more open. Kania deserves to know. "A few minutes before the incident, my brother whispered a sentence that still gives me goosebumps. Can't believe."
Kania no longer interrupts, just let Rangga speak as he pleases so that all these mysteries will soon open wide.
The breath of Rangga is heavy. There's a burden on his chest. "Silver put his eyes to guard. I asked him why, why talk like that? But the answer is just as crazy. Brother wants those eyes to continue to be useful and can see his lover for the rest of my life. After that, Big Brother said goodbye and finally ended his life. I know it's because Dad came in when Big Brother's body slid down."
The brain is hard to accept. It's a drama, isn't it? It feels too complicated and painful. "Then, what kind of reaction did you have, Mom?" This is the most curious moment. Kania wants to know more.
The two corners of Rangga's lips were raised upwards forming a small smile, a reaction that Ririn found quite terrifying. "He was angry, disappointed and blamed me."
"Lho, why? You don't know if he's going to kill himself?" Kania's a little upset. In any case, Rangga did not contribute to the decision to end the life of the first child of his parents-in-law. "I'm confused."
"Because Dad feels I'm the unlucky carrier of the family. Moreover, Brother apparently has prepared a will to donate both corneas for me. That's Dad's anger." The face of Rangga looks disappointed. The will of the brother. "I refused several times, better blind. But, Big Brother's last whisper was haunting all day. I almost went crazy, and finally convinced myself to accept."
The story of Rangga did not finish there. There is still the most interesting continuation, the man gave a few minutes to pause. And Kania understands that. Once you feel calm enough, then continue. "Dad finally agreed with the record that I should want to be the successor to the company. There is absolutely no talk about grandchildren. Until both eyes are attached, then the father asks for a grandson. I was angry, ever desperate to ask for corneal eye surgery. I can't possibly involve anyone else, because only by marriage can I give him a grandchild."
The breakfast was different from the blue atmosphere. Kania could feel the aura of pain in her husband's body language. Poor too.
"I asked you to step back a few times, but you were stubborn. It's been an attempt to pull you out of this painful valley, but again you've had a hard time listening. I'm not taking advantage of the situation. This is clearly wrong. But, if the question is already hard to realize, then what should I do?" Rangga continued his sentence.
Kania was silent again. It is also true what the husband said. This is the result of his decision in the past, of course there are risks to be faced.
"As yesterday, I don't think you should give birth to my son. Follow the direction of your own soul. Your body, yours, I shouldn't force it" Rangga continued.
"I promise, Mom." Kania is not used to lying.
"Don't listen to Dad. You can do what you think is best. Let me face Dad. You're comfortable enough now."
Rangga.
"Maybe it's time we fought each other. I may not have fully accepted it, but the effort to get to that point. I must have done." Kania's determination is strong. Do not like to play around with one decision, although in living it sometimes produces a lot of distress.
"We'll talk about this later, yeah. Looks like it's gonna be late for work." Rangga chose to avoid. The feeling is not good, could have issued a painful sentence.
Kania quite according. Doesn't matter. Time goes on and they can't just talk about it for a second. Certainly need to discuss further with a tempo that is quite time-consuming.
After eating, Kania washes the dishes. Letting Rangga to prepare in the room. Everything is finished, Rangga was already downstairs with a black bag belonging to his wife.
"Today I have a meeting with a client. If you want, come to lunch." Rangga gave the bag to Kania. "It's lunchtime too, be quiet."
Kania immediately picked up the bag, walked over first and said, "I'll see you later, yes, Mas. Fear of a lot of work." Not reject. However, he was aware of himself as an ordinary employee.
Rangga is no problem. They both have their own interests. Quickly catch up with the wife, get out of the house, do not forget to lock the door considering today no house cleaner came.
Kania entered first, then followed by Rangga. Before long the car drove away from the front of the house, over the fence and joined other vehicles. During the trip, there was something strange in the words of Rangga earlier. Throughout that Kania thought hard.
Ten minutes later, Rangga's car arrived at the office parking lot. The man had opened his seatbelt, turned to the side and found Kania dumbfounded. "What's wrong?" tanyakanya.
Kania looked over as well. Staring at Rangga lekat. "I remember earlier Mas said that brother nitipin eyes that can see his lover. Well, who's her boyfriend's question?" Choosing to speak rather than question it is at war in the brain, there is only dizziness and curiosity.
Rangga gulped.
"If so, do you see her lover often?" Kania continued the question. Because, there is a discussion that leads here as well. "If Mas is mandated like that, it means that Mas visits his lover so that the eye can catch his figure?"
Rangga was silent. The tail of the right eye glanced forward. It is time to reveal the facts. "I met him several times without his knowledge. Remember, maybe once a year for four years. He doesn't know."
The wrinkles on Kania's forehead are clearly visible. "So who's her boyfriend?" This is the most awaited moment as well. "Did Mas ever have a taste for him? It can happen, because usually love starts from the eyes and eventually comes down to the heart. Just like Mas to me first."
