Elfa pursed her lips at Juan Mahardika's request. From yesterday is still afraid and imagined in the eyes of the past that hurt. Trying to forget and imagine the feared thing to be beautiful, but has not yet succeeded.
"El is not food, if that's not forcing!"
"Not forced, darling don't be afraid. I just asked if I could be Alhamdulillah, but if I was still afraid to try," said Juan Mahardika immediately pulled Elfa in his arms.
Elfa's body immediately felt cold, but did not sweat. Showing there has been change and progress even if only a little. Just try harder, maybe in the near future can enjoy the beauty of acting together.
"Sorry, can you ask for more time, brother?"
"Of course, honey. I'll wait until it happens."
"Thank you for your understanding."
"Everiting for you, Garwoku."
"Let's eat real!"
"Let's go with El to the bar over there!" Elfa took Juan Mahardika's hand.
The one who was held smiled knot while following the steps of his beloved wife. Hearts flowery when just coupled it looks very romantic. The reason is only this time Elfa deliberately holds the hand of the husband.
"Aren't you sitting here!" elfa's orders arrived at the mini bar in the rear cabin.
"Thank you." Juan Mahardika sits in a high chair typical of a bar lined up neatly.
"There's a menu of meat steak, chicken steak, spaghetti and cream soup, which one to choose?"
"Steak the chicken."
"What's the carbo doing?"
"What's wrong?"
"Bread, bread, mash potato and rice puree."
"Bread it."
Elfa quickly served Juan Mahardika's order, the bread was simply baked in the microwave. Chicken steaks and condiments like carrots and chickpeas are steamed.
"this please!" Two plates in front of Juan Mahardika.
"Thank God, this thank you must have felt special because that makes it also very special."
"Eating doesn't need to fight everything."
The menu is only two dishes for Juan Mahardika. Elfa did not take the food menu for herself. So Juan did not enjoy the menu on the table.
"El not eating?"
"No, El's not hungry. I'm not eating, El get me a drink!"
Elfa took an iced tea, Juan Hahardika did not also start eating. Choose to wait until Elfa comes with iced tea. Until the menu came, it was still intact and not touched in the slightest.
"Cock hasn't been eaten yet?"
"Wait for El, let's open his mouth first feed for El!" Juan Mahardika cuts a chicken steak and a loaf of bread into one.
"Anyone who eats!"
"If El does not eat, Akak does not eat, let's open his mouth!"
Elfa opened her mouth and ate from Juan Mahardika's hand. Alternately feed after mouthfuls enter until the end of the menu on the plate. One glass of iced tea was also drunk one glass both.
"More favors, right?"
"Is it okay to eat El's ex?"
Because of the time difference between Indonesia and Riyadh. Elfa, Juan Mahardika and Abi Ali arrived at Abi Ali's house at dawn. Just resting for two hours, Elfa immediately went to the funeral of Almarhumah Umi Anna.
It is in this tomb that Elfa usually divides the restlessness of the heart that is never shared with anyone. Only with the Almarhumah Umi Anna Elfa can be open, only unfortunately has not been able to tell about the events of his past he has been gone forever.
Elfa sat in the tomb, cleaning and plucking the weeds that grew wild over the tomb. Say hello and pray for a moment. Juan Maharika also followed what Elfa did to pray fervently.
"Oma, introduce him to El's husband, he also destroyed El first" Elfa said after she finished praying.
Juan Mahardika was shocked and looked at Elfa's face. Not expecting if Elfa only told me about her problem in the tomb. Talk about the past to people who have died.
"Sorry, Oma. Introduce me Juan, I was the one who hurt my beloved granddaughter, but Juan has been punished, now Juan loves Oma's grandson very much. Please pray the blessing."
"El hopes that what passes can be turned into happiness, El is now still arranging the heart. Please pray Oma's blessing!"
Juan Maharika's body approached Elfa, "So all this time El only confided to Oma here?"
"Yes, just to Oma Anna alone, El poured out all the contents of El's heart. Oma Anna also knows all of Akak's past."
"El the story all here?"
"El can only be a story here alone, do not dare the same story mami or Abang Al."
Juan Mahardika nodded and pensively remembered the moment he was beaten all out by Alfian Alfarizi. Just heard that someone captured his sister was already battered. What would happen if the brother-in-law knew he had taken the most precious thing from his beloved sister.
"I'm sorry Juan in the past, Oma. From now on El will not be sad anymore and will not suffer anymore. El will only get happiness and attention from Juan."
Elfa many stories in front of the tomb of Almarhumah Umi Anna. Sometimes smiling and laughing, but sometimes shedding tears. Juan Mahardika faithfully waited and occasionally paid more attention by wiping his tears or wiping his sweat.
After an hour had passed, Elfa rubbed the tombstone above the tomb, "El and Akak JM said yes, Oma. God willing El will be here again tomorrow."
"Juan also said goodbye, Oma."
On the way home while driving a car, Juan Mahardika repeatedly rubbed Elfa's cheek, "El very close yes Almarhumah Oma Anna?"
"Yes, other than Grandma Ani's Almahumah, El just told me here."
"Who's Grandma Ani's house, honey?"
"Almarhumah Granny adi is the stepmother of Pakde Sarto."
"Ooo, but wait a minute, Mami Mitha is native to the Sundanese tribe. Why have a family from Ngawi?"
Elfa tells the first meeting with Almarhumah Ani's mother with Mami Mitha. Papi Alfarizi had also chased Mami Mitha to Ngawi. Just like Juan Mahardika did yesterday.
"Papi's party yesterday ordered Juan to get married because of that?"
"Yes, said Mami, they seemed to see their past when they saw Akak's struggle."
"Alamdulillah, how grateful Akak is at this time. Thank you God for being met by a very good girl, very beautiful and very much loved. Please bless us, God."
"Aamiin's."
"Darling, can I ask for a request?"
"What a request, El doesn't want to be forced about it. El still trying?"
"It's not about that, honey. It's easy for El."
"Can it be done while on our journey?"
"It can be so."
"What's that?"
"Please, say to me, you love me!"
