...27. Unbecoming...
Bluest.
These two days, Blue has been scraping out information about PT owners. Yudhishdira Tbk. Undeniably, the Name Nahesswari embedded behind the name Jecin slightly disturbed him.
Blue was very surprised to find the fact about Dusk who had a husband other than Cloud. Especially the ex-husband of Dusk is Dewo Yudistira, as the CEO of the company. Then, whether Jecin is the son of Dusk or not, that is still a question on Blue's mind. If the Cloud's vexation yesterday had anything to do with the name Nahesswari, this would obviously be the first thing Blue knows behind the Twilight story.
He pulls the car lever and mingles into the traffic jam of the metropolis, heading to Jihan's apartment for a farewell while asking for blessing.
Arriving at the apartment, he is disgusted by the appearance of Jihan who only uses a thin sheet of cloth covered with a satin kimono, let alone he had crossed paths with men who might be the same age as him at the entrance. Maybe this is what makes him not offended or angry when he heard Barid mention the Mother like Ja Lang.
“Bring me how are you coming so early?” ask Jihan.
Blue did not answer, his mind was still at war with reality that he always wanted to avoid every time he came to Jihan's apartment. He passed to the kitchen, took a glass vase and then put the flowers Kha gave him this morning.
“I ask for blessing, Ma. I'm the same Papa wants to go to Jogja, God willing to apply, Kha,”
“Lamar?” ask Jihan back. “The girl you introduced the other day?” Blue nodded.
“It turns out besides not being smart in business matters, your taste about girls is also common,” Sihan sneered. “It's right Mama introduced Jecin. Beautiful, brilliant career, an only child who is clearly his future, even interested in the same kind of women like study mothers,” he said.
Hearing Jecin's name, Blue is interested in finding out more about the girl.
“Mama knows Jecin long ago?”
Jihan smiled sneering. “Why? Change your mind? Now can you see which women are more attractive and promising?”
“Cumption.”
Naughtiness! It turns out that Jihan did not know about Jacinda Laluna Nahesswari in full. All Jihan knows from a Jecin is the only child of a successful businessman in the homeland, without knowing what is hidden behind it.
“This time accompany Mama out for a moment yes, Bi. Mama has an appointment with friends Mama,”
“Iya.”

Khadija.
Today, Abi and Ummi first returned to Jogja, they could not stop too long because of the work and school of Kha's brothers. Kha would follow two days later, the day before Blue came to Jogja as the man had promised.
Innalillahi wa innailaihi. That's okay, Dip. You may permit for the next few days, you are the same patient Fateh, God willing, I will be with the others come to your house.
Kha hung up, then approached Boim and Ujang below.
“Im, I'm asking you to make a flower board a condolence for Dipa, yes. Name of the deceased Mother of Raidah,”
“Loh, who died who, Tea? Isn't Sister Dipa an orphan?” asti Sahut.
“Iya, Dipa is indeed an orphan, but she also takes care of the mother of one of her deceased friends.” Asti and Boim looked at each other, then nodded their heads.
Not surprising indeed, Dipa's appearance is tomboyish and a little uracan turned out to have a big heart and high solidarity.
“Teteh when to return to Jogja?”
“It should be two more days, but asked permission at least three days he said, maybe I'm back Saturday morning aja.”
Let him think, Blue also has not given a definite answer when the man will bring his family to Jogja. He just sent the last text yesterday, saying if next Sunday he will come.

Accompanied by Asti and Ujang, Kha visits Dipa's house. This was the first time they had visited since they knew each other. They were stunned, seeing the state of Dipa village which turned out to be located on the edge of the city, where many people such as buskers, scavengers, until the child traders lived. Ujang can even only bring the car to the end of the alley. The rest, they walk to Dipa's house.
Ujang checked his phone, checked the address sent by Dipa. They looked doubtful, because the house known to belong to Dipa did not look crowded there are mourners or at least the yellow flag fluttering as in general.
“Ujang Bang! Is this not his home?” ask Asti.
“From the number anyway, really! But how quiet is it?”
When Kha was about to ask the little boy who passed by, Dipa and Fateh came with an old man.
“Teh...” Kha smiled, she quickly hugged Dipa who looked moody as usual.
“Sabar, yes...”
Dipa wiped her tears. “Thanks for coming,”
Asti and Ujang took turns to offer their condolences to Dipa and Fateh.
“This Pakde Warno,” said Dipa pointed to the old man behind him “He's the only neighbor who is like sodara,”
Long story short, it turns out it is like this the state of Dipa village. Despite living side by side, their social psyche is minimal, they look indifferent to each other even though the next-door neighbor is grieving. Therefore, they will not find any guests as mourners. Let alone that, the funeral process also they do themselves, and only the TPU helps.
“I promise I will enter before Teteh leaves for Jogja, I just want to finish off the goods Mbok Idah.” said Dipa.
Kha and the others retreated before the sun rose. They can not be long because the current condition of the flower shop is a little busier because Dipa who usually coordinates orders must be permission for the next three days.
“Jang, we stop by the front cake shop yes,” Kha command. Ujang stopped his car right in front of the cake shop next to the cafe.
Since getting out of the car, Kha's gaze was fixed on the figure of the man who just yesterday sat opposite Abinya.
There's a cafe table next to a cake shop. A man was sitting together with a very beautiful girl. Spelled next to him, Kha also saw the woman who the other day Blue called Mama, when introducing herself as a future wife. Could it be that the girl was also his family? I don't know....
From her body language, the girl did not look like family at all. The beautiful hand was sticking straight towards Blue, playing a spoon at the table. Although Blue hid her hands under the table, it was still not an interesting sight for Kha.
Kha turned her eyes. Too long to see Blue sitting with another woman makes her heart a little worried. Concerned about his true feelings is still gray. Worried about Blue's plan that seems sudden.
“Teteh see there's a Blue Mas there, right?” ask Asti. “Tethe not jealous?”
“He doesn't deserve my jealousy yet, Asti.”
like before continue my darling-my dear 😘
