When Passion Is Greater Than Lust

When Passion Is Greater Than Lust
A New Beginning


Today Dadang and Siti returned to their homes in accordance with the agreement that was agreed last night. They will start everything from scratch, one of which is to return to their homes so that this cold relationship warms up again. Bude Dewi also seemed enthusiastic when Bara and Dio took him to the boy's house and showed their vast collection of toys, but none of them was completely intact and perfect. Bude can guess if this is the brutal act of his grandchildren who are not able to if advised, the age of Dio and Bara will indeed behave as they please themselves.


Dadang and Siti did not speak privately together, Siti still seemed to avoid if Dadang wanted to invite her to talk, This situation is understood by Bude Dewi. But to pressure Siti he also felt unnecessary. Let her daughter, realizing for herself her wrong attitude .


" Patience to Dang ! Although bude looks a little forcing Siti, but bude make sure if Siti is not a cruel and heartless woman . Moreover, you are the father of his children. Bude hope you want to learn from mistakes, even though in the eyes of bude you do not do bad, but bude also can not judge you with an objective like Siti because our condition is separated by distance.."


" Let's just hope Siti forgives Dadang bude. I'm very sorry about what happened to Siti. I'm sorry juha bude if I hurt bude through Siti. But this time I promise I will learn to better understand the hassle of a wife and mother of three children like Siti. Although it may be too late but as much as possible I will try to make the cheerful and jolly Siti back again like before.."


" Bude wants proof of Dadang. It is as if you should think of the children who have been present in your midst . Having children not only feeds them, but also ensures their happiness, their mentality and disposition must be well formed at an early age. In order not to cause regret in the future .in our hearts as his parents .."


Dadang nodded.Soft attitude bude Dewi made Dadang feel stuck. Can not be imagined by him how much the impact of his behavior that often snapped and slammed goods in front of his children.


Although now has not caused significant changes in the three fruits of his heart. It could be that this impact will arise in the future. Thinking about the possibility made Dadang feel even more guilty.

Now they are sitting on the porch of the house while watching Dio and Bara in play. Dadang, Siti and Bude Dewi also appear to eat fried bananas accompanied by a cup of coffee.


" Bude is going home tomorrow ! It seems too long bude postponed the return of bude. Later even because bude seems careless this is even used by thieves who are good at reading opportunities.."


Bude said calmly. His eyes instead focused on the figure of two boys who looked noisier because of fighting over toys.


" You guys get along well, it feels strange when bude comes here but in a situation that makes bude feel uncomfortable..


For you Siti, Bude ask you to re-read the letter of the agreement, do not be too late in a grudge son. Not well. Time cannot be rotated but we can improve the time to come. It will soon be coffee season. You can already help Dadang in your garden. Start everything from scratch, think about the future of your children.."


Even then noticed the look of Siti's face that seemed empty, whether as heavy and as big as that was the hatred of the woman who had given her three children..


" in that case, let Dadang tell mom to make bude coffee powder. Coincidentally the coffee fruit harvested yesterday was already dried . As a gift, Bude is a coffee lover.."


" Bring it here bang ! Let Siti make the coffee powder.." Siti's proposal, making Dadang just nod yes. And immediately to the mother's house to take the dried coffee fruit to be processed into coffee powder.


Bude smiled at Siti's response, at least they were no longer just silent and indifferent to each other. "yeah Dang all bude also kangen stirring coffee fruit on the pan .." smile bude them.


Siti immediately moved after leaving her two children to bude. He is now heading towards the side of preparing the fire to disrupt the coffee fruit to black and crisp, the process of making coffee powder here is done manually. To produce the best coffee powder, in the processing is not easy. Because it must often be turned back in a special skillet made of iron. If not then the coffee fruit will not ripen perfectly and of course this affects the taste of coffee when it is brewed. Be mothers will be in front of the frying pan with a great fire burning for hours. No wonder if the quality and taste of coffee brewed in their village can be recognized at the district level.


Dadang has returned home with a basket of coffee beans that have been washed and placed under the hot sun for at least an hour so that the coffee beans are not too wet, if it is wet then the process will take even longer in roasting it.


" It just so happens that my mom wants to roast too today. The intention was to give coffee powder that so just to us deck, but because you want to do it yourself so the mother deliberately gave a slightly dry let's not wait too long . " Dadang explained while placing the basket containing coffee beans next to his wife.


Siti was silent and still busy with her activities to arrange wooden butts to be burned. He also arranged the furnace to fit when placing a frying pan on it later. Dadang who saw the firewood was not taking the initiative to take it back, something he never did before when his wife was in trouble.


" Siti. It looks like sleepiness . You're kelonin gih. Mumpung hasn't fussed. Let bude aja who nyangrai coffee. You should not be able to if you have to work hard. Your stitches can come off later.."


Bude's remarks made siti remember her surgical scars. It was still very painful sometimes but as much as possible he held it. Her duties as a housewife made her ignore her own condition.


" What's wrong - napa bude. I'm tired especially if the process will be old.." Siti felt bad, she could have forgotten if her surgery wound could have been sewn off. He should have let his mother and Salsa process these coffee beans. So he does not need to trouble bude who is not accustomed to work that looks easy but difficult if done.


" No papa. It's over there, Kasian Bara. It's so sleepy!!"


Siti finally got up and took Bara to the room after washing the boy's feet and hands. While Dio now even ran towards his grandmother's house to meet Salsa, although only 4 years old but Dio seemed to understand with Siti's distress, if children his age still often cintillate parents, but in contrast to Dio who is more independent and tends to be indifferent to his mother and father.
