What a Beautiful Divorce
30. Idea

Prapto and Pinaka were about to stand up, but Mr. Rohan raised his right hand to signal that Prapto and Pinaka would remain seated. Mr. Rohan and Bu Veni then walked to the pendopo.

From the front of their house, which was still in line with Prapto's house, Bi Asih and Mang Kari looked at each other, they smiled. "It seems, Mr. Rohan and Bu Veni seriously asked at that time, Kang," said Bi Asih.

"Yes, Asih. Akang already knew from seeing the look on their faces, although they did not say. Ms. Veni taking early retirement must have something to do with the question she asked you."

"Yes, Kang. They also seem more friendly now. And Bu Veni there is no shouting Mr. Rohan anymore" said Bi Asih. They then turned to the pendopo.

But just now Mang Kari and Bi Asih look at the pendopo, they are now looking at each other again. "Kang, I almost forgot to make a drink" said Bi Asih.

They both shook their heads while laughing.

Mr. Rohan and Bu Veni have been sitting in the pendopo, in front of Prapto and Pinaka. They smiled at Pinaka. "Prapto, have your cigarette one," asked Mr. Rohan. He took a Prapto cigarette and lit it.

"Include me, Pinaka, this is my father and mother" Prapto said.

"Boy, Om, Aunt."

After shaking hands with Pinaka, Bu Veni smiled, then asked, "You're one village with Prapto or you're a Jakarta person, Nak Pinaka?"

"I was born and raised in Jakarta, Auntie, but now I live and work in the village where Mas Prapto lives, Kejora village."

Bu Veni nodded. "So Auntie thought, Nak Pinaka is a career woman who works in an office" said Bu Veni.

"At first yes, Auntie, I worked for a company in Jakarta. But ..." Pinaka did not continue his words. He then looked at Prapto.

Prapto is confused. He looked at Pinaka for a moment. Then she said, "At first yes, Mom, but Pinaka turned out to be a woman who likes the atmosphere of the village, especially a village like Kejora village. So, finally Pinaka asked me where the cool and quiet village to live. Then I recommended Pinaka to Kejora village. Yeah, right, Pinaka?"

Pinaka looked at Prapto for a moment, he nodded doubtfully. "Yes, Auntie, Om," he said.

Bu Veni and Pak Rohan looked at each other with astonished faces, then they turned back to Pinaka. "Ooh so. We also seem interested in living in the village, Nak Pinaka. But wait for Om Rohan to retire first from his business. Aunt herself retired a month ago."

Pinaka. While Prapto looked at his parents with a wondering look, which was only answered with a smile by Mr. Rohan and Bu Veni.

"How are you, son? Is there a healthy and healthy you in Kejora village?" asked Mr. Rohan, who was accompanied by a nod by his wife.

Prapto is astonished. Usually, if both of Prapto's parents ask him, his mother will ask and his father will only nod while holding a cell phone. Prapto was about to answer his father's question, but Bi Asih first came to serve drinks.

"Please drink, Non Pinaka," said Bi Asih offering.

"Thank you, Bi," said Pinaka.

"Asih, this is Pinaka, Prapto's girlfriend," said Bu Veni.

Prapto and Pinaka were shocked. They stared at Bu Veni. Bu Veni laughed. He said, "Men and women can't be friends. So, what do I call you guys? Wife husband?" Beside him, Mr. Rohan was clearly holding back a laugh.

"Introduction, Mom. Call it, acquaintance," said Prapto.

"Yes .. yes, I'm joking, really, Prapto. Pinaka's acquaintance Prapto, Asih."

Bi Asih laughed. After shaking hands with Pinaka, she then returned to the long bench where her husband was sitting, to look at the pendopo together.

Since sitting in the pendopo earlier, in front of Pinaka, Bu Veni and Pak Rohan both felt like Pinaka to be their daughter-in-law. In addition to her sweet face and her eye-light signifying intelligence, what they love about Pinaka is the way the girl looks at Prapto.

There was respect that emanated when Pinaka looked at Prapto and when he spoke to Prapto.

While his mother and father chatted with Pinaka, Prapto thought about his parents who seemed to have changed drastically. His mother took early retirement. His father looked more handsome. Also, the way her mother spoke to her husband was now completely different.

Prapto now understood after he read the short message just sent by Mang Kari. In the short message, Mang Kari explained that after Prapto left, Bu Veni often asked about the household to Bi Asih, and Mr. Rohan often asked the same thing to Mang Kari.

Shortly after that, Veni retired early. Understand Prapto, that as Mr. Oscar said, his parents did not apologize directly to him, but they apologized in a way that they did not say but could be known by Prapto.

Prapto. "Dad," he called. "There's something I want to tell you and I'm asking you."

"Say, Prapto," said Mr. Rohan. Prapto then tells a little picture of the village Kejora.

He tells about his car that has been sold, about his new home, about Pinaka disguised as a food researcher and rejected the harvest, to about the plan of cooperation Kejora village with Timo's father's company. And lastly, about the cancellation of Pak Gumiro's capital loan.

Mr. Rohan and Bu Veni steady his son haru. "You're great, Prapto. We are proud of you" said Mr. Rohan. Bu Veni patted his son's shoulder.

"Since the few days before your mother retired, I've canceled the partnership with Subarja and her careless son-in-law, Prapto. Yes, we decided to no longer go crazy in pursuit of money. Your departure makes us more willing to change" said Mr. Rohan.

Mr. Rohan sipped his coffee. He continued, "There is no unconscious human being. All men are aware that they are wrong, because they have reason. It's just that they don't want to judge themselves wrong, and then they make excuses. There is no caliph in this world, no coincidence, it's all just excuses!"

Prapto was amazed astonished to stare at his father. There was happiness in his heart. Prapto was also happy to see his mother nod while looking respectfully at his father, unlike before, where his mother always did not hesitate to refute his father's words, in front of Prapto or in front of many people.

It feels like Prapto hugged his parents now, but he did not do it, because there is now Pinaka who is no less heralded than Prapto.

Many questions passed inside Pinaka's head. And of the many questions, only one can guess the answer, which is that Prapto moved to the village of Kejora must be for a reason related to his disharmony with his parents.

However, the question that he could guess the answer was actually raises more questions in Pinaka's head. Why did Prapto leave the house? What's the Prapto Problem with both parents? And so forth.

"But" continued Mr. Rohan after exhaling his cigarette smoke, "from your story, I can draw a conclusion, Prapto. Tristan must have done something to get the approved Gumiro capital loan canceled.

"Recently, I heard that he had business cooperation with a company leader, whose nephew held a high position in the private bank where Gumiro borrowed the capital."

"I also suspect this is Tristan's job, Dad. In addition to Silvi's request, he must also do so that the Horse Fly Corporation can get the business of livestock and natural crops that are very potential. But, I didn't expect him to use it that way, because I didn't know about his new business cooperation."

Prapto then scratched his head.

"Prapto!" Bu Veni immediately pulled the hand of his son who was scratching his head. "Don't scratch your head in front of you if it doesn't itch!"

Prapto laughs. "Cool, Mom. Wiro Sableng often does so if you think again," he said.

Bu Veni shook his head. Then he thought about finding an idea. Pinaka thinks, but what he thinks is, why was Silvi called, and why Silvi allegedly asked Tristan to thwart the Kejora village plan.

Pinaka knows who Silvi is, as he is present at his wedding to Tristan, the CEO of Cuek. But, the intelligent Pinaka feels that Silvi's role in thwarting Kejora's village plans is quite large. And Pinaka was very curious as to what the reason for Silvi was.

Pinaka decides not to think about Silvi. He then thought about what was thought by Prapto, Bu Veni, and Pak Rohan, namely how to get Pak Gumiro's capital loan approved. Suddenly Pinaka's face was radiant. He raised his head.

Prapto, Mr. Rohan, and Bu Veni, now turn to Pinaka who seems to get an idea.
