“Ma, last night om Jono ya?” without further ado, Agni asked what she saw.
“Means?” Zora tilted her face but her eyes looked at Agni, occasionally looking the other way.
“Friends mom chat in back garden, who ma?” Agni is sure she wasn't dreaming last night, she just finished her PR work and got thirsty.
“No ah, when? Mama was in my room last night, no coming out!” Zora.
“Mama!” Agni forces Zora to confess to what she did last night in the back garden.
“Perhaps before mom enters the room?” Agni tried to remind her mother.
“Oh, that, om Jono, right, when mama wants to turn off some lights, om Jono comes, want to talk to mama, why?” Zora was finally honest.
“Brovin what?” Agni was still curious.
“Yes, about the kids in the dark alley, he said he told you to persuade mama to donate to those kids! Aye right?”
“Take a handrail?” Agni looked into her mama's eyes, she was willing to see the change in her mother's expression when she was shot straight away.
“Who's holding hands? You are, you are!” Zora, as Agni had guessed, had no meaning in her eyes.
“Mama, even though the lights are turned off, the light from inside the house is still bright enough to illuminate the back garden ma, anyway why the chat should be in the back garden?” Agni was starting to be convinced by what she saw.
“Eh, mom doesn't know what you mean!” Zora tried to dodge.
“Ma, how is it?” Agni was getting upset.
“Kok how?” Zora pretended to be stupid.
“Questions answered with questions,” Agni upset herself, she did not expect that her mother could cheat on her father's back. Behind Aditya.
“No handrails, mama and om Jono just plain chat!”
“In the darkness of the night, in a dimly lit place?” Agni returned to pursue her mother's confession.
“Emang why if in dark place?”
“Many demons ma!”
“Abad 21 still believe satan?” Zora pretended to be plain.
“Not a demon literally mama, um, deh, I just ask for mama's confession, say the same hand grip om Jono, before I conclude a no-no between mama and om Jono!” Agni started to threaten.
“What do you mean?” Zora is disturbed by Agni's threat.
“Mama knows what I mean, mama just doesn't want to know, does she? Ma, Agni is not a child anymore who can be lied to many times, Agni already knows the meaning of loyalty, happiness and feelings, only Agni does not want to plunge there!”
Agni's words were like a sermon in broad daylight for Zora. He was slapped with all of Agni's words. She's really being rebuked now if Agni is not a child anymore, a sweet child who receives whatever her mother's treatment with another man who isn't her father.
“Udah ah, mama want to get ready first, mama want to go to Surabaya, mama go with om Jono!” Zora broke off the conversation.
“Oh, be careful on the road!” Agni leaves Zora before her mother leaves her alone in the dining room.
Agni was looking for Jono, he went to Jono's room, at that time Jono was preparing to leave for Surabaya.
“Om, last night why hold your mama's hand?” Agni shoot directly.
Jono was surprised by Agni's question, lightning in the rainy season, the question was very disturbing.
“Hold how?” Jono pretended not to know.
“Oh, it turns out om and mama have long done that huh?” Agni accused again.
“Doing what Agni?” Jono protested with Agni.d's accusations
“Do not pretend not to know, om. I can clearly see what you did to Mama!”
“Om that ngaco, om do not know if the mother already has a husband, already have children, I om!” Agni protests are accused of being disturbed by Jono, her beloved om, whom she believes will take care of her and her mother, Zora.
“Everything you see is not what you see, Agni!” Jono defended himself.
“Keep like what, om?” Agni challenges Jono.
“Agni, it's bad to think first, me and mama won't be so silly!” Jono reassured Agni.
“What's sokonyol? I never said you guys were so silly. What you did last night was ridiculous. Sure om doesn't do more than just handrails?” Agni at length reminded Jono.
“Agni...,” Jono wants to defend himself again.
“No need to defend yourself, please beberes, want to go to Surabaya right?” Agni asked a question while leaving Jono to stay in his room.
***
Agni was upset by herself in her room. She wants Aditya, her papa to come home soon.
Aditya called many times but there was no answer. Rejected several times. This made Agni upset, not only to her mother and Jono, but also Aditya, her father who no longer paid the slightest attention to Agni, much different from Aditya's treatment to her when she was a child. Agni became confused by her own family status.
“What papa knows all this?” Agni asked in her heart.
***
“Papa, still love with mom no?” Agni suddenly asked Aditya before the papa started to enter the room.
“Loh, how is that?” Aditya gawked, he never thought of getting such a question from Agni. “Must have something covered Agni!” aditya in the heart.
“Jawab first, pa!” Agni forced Aditya to answer her question.
“Papa want to know dong the reason you are so!” Aditya insisted not to answer first.
“Pa, papa really love same mom right?” Aditya's questions had no effect on him.
“What the hell is it? There must be something until it's so!” Aditya was still unwilling to answer Agni, according to which the question was irrelevant for the time.
“Papa can answer that first? Later if you have, Agni will tell more stories!” Agni offers to tell more stories.
“Ok, papa is very dear to mama, whatever the situation!”
“Even if there are other men approaching mama?” Agni looked into Aditya's eyes.
“Means?” Aditya is surprised to hear Agni's style of language.
“But, papa don't get mad at mama ya!” It reminds me of Aditya.
“Iya, why Agni! Don't make papa's proposal, dong!” Aditya tried to pry the information Aditya did.
“Mama is likely to have a special relationship with om Jono!” Agni gave herself up to report what she saw that night.
Agni waited for her papa's expression to change. There seems to be no such significant change.
“Mama with om Jono is close, om Jono who sent mama anywhere if papa is not home!?” Aditya intended to cover everything he knew about Jono and Zora to Agni, but in his heart, he was already very furious. Moreover, he knew the news from his own son.
“Pa, not like that!” Agni raised her voice.
“Keep, what is it like?” Aditya pretended to be stupid.
“If there is a more intimate relationship between mama and om Jono, papa won't even get mad?” Agni looked into Aditya's eyes.
“Not going, Agni don't have to think about it, just school mirik yes! What about the Olympics yesterday? Mama said, the school chose you again to join the Olympics!” Aditya tried to divert the conversation.
“Papa do not have to switch the conversation, then, I go to the room first, pa!” Agni got out of her chair and went into the room, thinking about all the things that were happening in the house, in the middle of their family.
