An Unwanted Match
THE JYTD 26

Ms. Rini looked unsettled in the morning, she who was prepared with her clothes seemed to walk there erratically. She was agitated while waiting for her husband who contacted some of her acquaintances to find Galang's whereabouts. He can't wait to meet his son. He could not wait to hug her and wanted to apologize for his attitude towards Galang.

"How, Mas?" tanyakanya.

"Wait a moment, Rin," replied Mr. Yahya as he pushed back the call button on his device.

"Mas, please hurry. I can't wait to see him" said Rini.

Moments later, Mr. Yahya smiled at Bu Rini after he called his men.

"How's it?" asked Bu Rini curiously.

"Galang is in Jakarta, Rin. He said he was going to visit his friend's house."

Bu Rini smiled widely, a happy feeling enveloping her heart at this moment. Both of his palms fused together and clasped each other, really. He could not wait for his son to arrive.

***

Although a little late, Thea who had reached the Prince's house and Aida also attended the ceremony held by her two friends. And since coming here, his eyes have been like stereo looking for someone he's been waiting for. Is Galang coming? Is he going to meet her? What is that guy like now?

The last time he saw the man was six years ago when he happened to pass by Mr. Yahya's house at eleven p.m. Which until now, it has always been a nightmare, because Galang suddenly disappeared no more news.

He was very curious and wanted to know what happened to Galang until he left his parents' house.

But at that time, the time was very limited because his residence also moved to Makassar. Distance separated them, but his heart could not completely shake the man in his mind.

Even until the event was almost finished, he did not see the arrival of Galang.

"Hey, stop. Don't keep moving your mouth like that, you look pretty ugly" Prince said.

"Huh?" Thea turned her head in shock, not even realizing the arrival of the Prince next to her.

The little prince chuckled looking at his still gaping look.

"Ck. What the hell." chirped to the Prince.

Again the Prince chuckled little. However, he was still staring ahead looking at the crowd of people who had started to leave this house.

"He didn't seem to be coming" the prince said.

Thea fell silent and let out a short breath. It was indeed crowded when he felt disappointed not to be able to meet the man today.

"Here you go, wouldn't you be better off moving on? It's been too long. And Galang also may already belong to someone else at this time," said the Prince again.

Thea frowned and turned to the Prince.

"You're a fortune teller, huh?"

"You mean?"

"You can always read my mind? Just a second ago I thought about it. You have spoken first," he said, taking a glass of drinking water on the table where they were standing.

"No, but your face is too big to see. It's very clear that you did fail to move on," said the Prince in a soft tone with his rigid style of speech.

Thea scowls.

"Emh! Yes continue! Keep on going, failed to move on! Singles ngenest! The aging! Get out again all your leds, ish ...!" Thea was really angry. The prince laughed even more.

Thea snorted in annoyance, she put down her glass again after gulping down its contents.

"I'm not like it for long, Ran. There's still business, I want to go where Aida used to be, yes," Thea said and greeted with a small nod of the Prince.

"ok-"

"Ih, you want to go home? Don't dong. Nginep here yes .. please." Suddenly Aida comes holding back Thea's steps.

"Sorry, Ai. But I have some important business."

"What kind of business? I forgot my own best friend's happy day. You rarely go to Jakarta." Aida put on the most horrible face for Thea, she acted like a child even though she already had a child now.

"But, Ai-"

"Aden, sorry. Outside there are those who are looking for the Prince Den the same Non Aida," said Aida household assistant. Making the three people in front of him look.

"Who, Bi?" ask Aida.

"Auntie doesn't know. But that guy's already waiting in the living room."

The prince and Aida frowned. The two of them went to the living room and Aida's hand stuck with Thea's arm so that the woman did not run away anywhere. The new baby he gave birth to about forty days was still sound in both hands of his mother-in-law.

After they arrived at the living room. How surprised Thea was to see the scene before her. Thea's pace slowed down, he no longer violently forced to go home like before.

His gaze bowed and just looked down, not daring to return the astonished gazes of the two people he had not seen for a long time.

"sorry. Who is this aunt and uncle? My mama's friend, huh?" asked Aida innocently. He was astonished, there were two middle-aged old men who seemed to be the same age as his parents. But he and the Prince had never seen them.

"Not."

"Thea ... You? You're Thea, right? My daughter-in-law?"

A question from a woman made Thea fall down. His feelings were not good, let alone seeing the gaze of the man next to him who was so hinting at hatred.

"She is no longer our daughter-in-law, Rin," said Pak Yahya so honestly as he looked at Thea who was still bowed.

"Mas .. please. I'm quite happy to see it" said Ms. Rini. He approached Thea and hugged her body for a moment. "Thea, Mama is grateful to still be able to meet you. And Mama didn't expect to see you here either."

Thea's eye bags began to get wet with tears that wanted to seep from there. Gets a warm touch from someone he never thought he would.

It's like a dream in the middle of the day. The woman he had known so rudely and curiously treated him well?

"Oh .. so. Om same Aunt Galang's parents?" ask Aida.

"Yes. And we came here, to ask directly whether Galang is here or not. Because my wife wants to see him" replied Mr. Yahya.

The prince, Aida and Thea were looking at each other, they were unable to answer that question in a moment. Given this moment they are waiting for one of their friends.

"Since six years he's been away from home. And I have information that Galang will come here. Is that true?" ask Mr. Yahya.

"Yes. That's right, Om. But honestly, Galang has not come yet. And I can't guarantee he'll come. Because ...." The prince hung his words. He looked one by one at the anxious faces covered in that longing for a moment.

"Because what? W-did something happen to him? Tell Auntie .. please. Aunt wants to meet him."

Thea was only able to stare at the middle-aged woman. His mind flashed far at Galang's wish just then. Where little hope Galang is when Bu Rini calls his name and recognizes him as a child.

And now, he saw clearly that Bu Rini was holding back tears because she could not see Galang here. If Galang knew all this, would he be happy?

"Ga-Galang?"

Spontaneous speech from Aida's mouth made the people around her flinch. They all turned to the place where Aida was focusing her gaze.

Iris Thea's eyes narrowed, explained again the creation of God which is more and more perfect when compared to the last time he saw it. A plain white shirt that is slightly wet on the top makes the curves of the athletic body more prominent.

That's right Galang. He was here and made his heartbeat multiply as if it would stop at any moment. The tears instantly piled up and blocked his visibility. Thea tried as hard as she could not cry.

"Auntie! Please bring a small towel, splinter!" aida orders her household asiatant because she sees her guests in a half-drenched state.

"no need. It's not too wet, thank you." The man approached them, and his arrival was warmly welcomed by the Prince. "sorry. It seems I came too late, "he said again, shaking the Prince's hand.

"Don't worry about that. I thought you weren't coming today. It just so happens that someone wants to meet you. Let's ...."

The prince invited him to approach the others on the living room sofa.

Miss Rini seemed amazed to see the condition of this mature age man in front of them. It is like seeing her husband clone to the man so that he does not have to doubt the truth about who his biological child is.

"Galang, my son ...." Ms. Rini reached out her hand wanting to grab the man's body. But this was not achieved because he took a step back to avoid it.

"Wait .. What did you call me?" The man frowned when the question from his mouth made Bu Rini fixated for a moment.

"Group, my son." Bu Rini said softly with tears that could not be held back anymore. Moreover, seeing the response that he can not match expectations.

"Langs. Your parents came here to meet you, here too there's Thea-"

"Kids?" Galang.

"Please sit down. Let one of us explain everything to you, so you don't misunderstand me" the prince said.

Thea's gaze was never distorted by a second, he continued to look at Galang until the man sat on the sofa opposite the glass table that was the barrier between them.

The man combed his wet hair back, it was clear that Galang who used to be tidakilan, he himself was also stubborn it all disappeared at this time. There was, a dark and cold aura that enveloped him.

What was? Does he not remember us anymore? Or does Galang really not want to remember our mass? Thea. Even Galang wasn't looking at him at all at the moment.

"Say. My time is not much" said Galang.

"Galang .. This is Mama. Mom and Dad came here to look for you. And finally we can meet here, Mama's really happy, honey. Mama also wants to apologize for the treatment-"

"wait. Mama?" Galang hissing while massaging his temple slowly. Once again he saw the middle-aged woman. "Why do you keep saying that? Sorry, you seem to have the wrong person. I'm not your son."

The series of sentences seemed to hit Bu Rini's chest using a dagger. It was painful, even his tears had fallen more and more seeing Galang's cold expression on him.

"No! You're my son, please don't punish Mama like this, son. Mama apologized, Mama admitted wrong because she never admitted your existence. Now that Mama knows the truth, Mama hopes you can forgive Mama and come home," said Rini.

"Langs. Do not pretend to forget your own parents. Kasian tau, your papa has also been nyari you for six years. And you can't forget that's the same? We were? Moreover, like Thea, you can't possibly forget this love of yours." Aida added the word while holding both of Thea's shoulders.

Galang and Thea finally met, long enough. The longer Thea stared at the sharp iris of the eye, the more grievous her feelings became. The besieging feeling that was so big pressed against his chest made his breath tight.

Lost his patience. He got off the couch and grabbed his black coat. "That's enough. I came here because of your invitation, not to listen to unreasonable explanations."

Everyone stood up. Thea's heart beat faster, Bu Rini approached Galang again and now stood right in front of the child.

"Please .. please. Mama is sorry. Didn't you say you wanted Mama to admit you. Now that's happening, honey. My mom promised that it would never happen again. Mama will give you full affection" said Ms. Rini. Again he grabbed the arm of Galang "Mama will cook your favorite food every day, wake up sleep when you are bad luck, or hear your complaints. We'll do everything as you asked Mama first. Please, Galang. Come home, yeah."

There was no reaction from Galang. He let the woman talk and shed her feelings.

"Please give your mama a chance, son. This time your mother has spoken honestly," said Mr. Yahya.

There was still no reaction shown by Galang. Before finally the hand took off the handle of Bu Rini slowly with a sad look.

"Sorry .. I don't know you. It seems like you are a good woman, but you need to remember. I'm not your son. My mom has given me what I wanted all along. There's nothing else. Now it's possible that my mother is waiting at home, and I don't want to let her down. So I'm going home to my house."

Ms. Rini felt as if her two feet were not powered anymore to support the body. Seeing clearly Galang passed him just like that after saying a karmic sentence from his previous actions to Galang.

"One more." Galang stopped his steps right in front of Thea. Seeing the dark brown haired woman cry silently since earlier. "We don't know each other either. Isn't that right, Miss?"

Thea's small heart rumbled violently to Galang's sturdy back that was getting away from the view after saying goodbye. A moment later, he could not feel his steps carrying the body running after Galang who had entered the black car and was about to leave.

"No! It's galang!" Thea groaned in frustration, Galang did not hear and had started his car engine going from there.

Thea lightning-fast got into her own car and chased after Galang in front. Her tears have been flowing ever since, but she should be happy. Not remembering it, it means it will be easy for them to forget each other.

But why did this hurt his heart more deeply?
