Marrying Sergeant Major
~ 4 ~
When the car I was driving entered the yard after Jim, the security guard at our house opened the gate for me, Lala and Bima were on the porch.
Lala exclaimed happily to welcome my return after work.
I drove my car to the garage through the front porch, directly lowering the window on the right for the sake of seeing his carefree face.
"Mother!"
"Hi, pretty"
I waved one hand with a big smile. A pair of my irises glanced at Bima mas who continued to focus on staring at the laptop on his lap.
My car stopped right behind Bima's car. Turn off the engine and then go down. When I closed the car door, Lala was running towards me.
"Mother!"
I immediately knelt down, equalized our height and then reached out. After Lala kissed the back of my hand, I kissed her cheeks in a row.
"I miss you mother"
"Oh, huh??" My eyes shine. "Mother miss you too"
"Sama-sama kangen means"
I nodded while inhaling the scent of my little daughter's body. "Hmm, it smells fresh, it looks like your daughter has taken a bath"
"Already bun, shower with dad"
"Smart kid"
"Mother why did she come home so long?"
"Sorry yes, the mother had a recapitulation at the end of the month, so it was a bit late afternoon home"
Every time on the thirty or thirty-one, I always come home late, almost five and even half six. That's because they have to calculate tax revenue for a month. And it took almost three hours.
I also told Bima that I would return late via a short message.
"What is recapilation, bun?"
"Recapitulation, son" Eratku as he grabbed Lala's body for me to carry.
"What is mother?" Lala's gaze continued to focus on me.
"The recapitulation records all the activities for a month, baby" Maybe in summary once I explain to Lala in order to be understood by a child her age.
"Bad mother means tired?"
"No, there is already Lala who can reduce the tiredness of the mother"
Our smiles are both. Until it was not felt, my steps had reached the terrace of the house.
"Assalamu'alaikum"
"Wa'alaikumsalam" replied mas Bima glance at me.
I took Lala down from my sling.
"Mother sun father's hands used to be the same shoes off"
"Eugh"
Stepping closer to Bima, I reached out my hand.
"Mas!" Soft words.
Mas Bima looked at me while thrusting a hand for me to kiss. After walking a few steps, I sat down on the other patio chair and took off my shoes.
"Mother, Lala had been walking around for a while with the same father Gesya"
"Walk?" I frowned, trying to normalize my sudden wild heartbeat.
"Just to the toy store near the school Thalia" between Bima mas which makes me immediately turn to the right side where Bima mas sitting.
His words just now, as if denying the words of the streets spoken from Lala's mouth.
Want to ask more details, but there is no guts for it, in addition to my memory review on the words of Bima mas not to interfere in his personal affairs. Obviously, my curiosity was forced to swallow me raw.
Rise up while lifting shoes, I swing my feet towards the closet and put my shoes next to Bima's gold shoes.
"Mother go in first, La"
"Lala's in the bun"
"Come on" I held Lala's hand. Entering the house without caring about Bima mas who also does not care about me.
"Lala's in, yeah" She pinched.
"Yes, baby!" suhut mas Bima with a gaze fully staring at the laptop screen.
While my heart seemed to be pinched when I heard that they were going together. My mind also kept wondering how they could meet and had stopped by the toy store.
"So you picked him up late, son?"
"No, bun. Even when Lala came out there was the same father onty Gesya again waiting on the park bench"
Lala's answer made me want to dig up information by asking her more deeply.
"Bear dad come the same onty Gesya?"
"Yes"
Seconds, my brain immediately wandered to guess whether they had accidentally met at school, or when Bima picked up Gesya at work, after which they both picked up Lala.
If so, it means that Bima did not come home at three. It could be that he came home early because he had to pick up Gesya first to his office. Because it is not possible to leave the office at three, you can go straight to Lala's school with Gesya. While the distance of the Bima mas office to Gesya's office is quite far, plus the trip from Gesya's office to Lala's school. It will take a long time for that trip.
My mind was suddenly disturbed by the speculation I made myself.
Did Bima come home early, continue to make the same agreement with Gesya? after spending time together, they went to Lala's school. They haven't seen each other in a long time, aahhh ...
There was pain I felt as I took a deep breath.
"Lala in buyin same new bag onty, bun"
My daydreams are breaking to hear Lala's voice. "Oh yeah?"
"Yes, I also buy jewelry for you"
"Jewelry? make mother?" I made sure, looking down and looking over. I saw Lala looking up because our eye level was quite far away.
"Yes, said the father let the mother more beautiful if wearing the jewelry on the mother's hijab"
Hearing Lala's explanation, I just ngeh that the jewelry that Lala means might be a bross.
"Buyah buyin for mom?"
I opened the door of my room along with Lala's head that was nosedived without hesitation.
My heart suddenly warmed. This is the first time Bima bought something for me, even though it was just a bross, but it was very special to me.
"Lala's cross was put on the mother's room table, the father told me to put it there"
When I was standing next to the bed, I turned my face to the object where it was lying.
Bross it turned out to be very beautiful, like swarovski that radiated its luster. The shape is very simple, the price is also at least up to two hundred thousand, but somehow makes me happy amazing.
My outstretched reflex took the bross from above the nightstand, then looked at it deeply.
"Good yes bun, beautiful as a mother" Lala who was standing on my bed, also looked at the shiny object in my hand.
"Kayak Lala is also beautiful"
Suddenly...
"Mother" Lala suddenly made my forehead wince.
I looked at him with astonishment too.
"Yes son?"
"So onty Gesya wanted to hold the hand of the father, but rejected the same father. Hold her gini, bun" Lala wrapped her arms around mine. "But directly off the same father, father pretended to take a cell phone in his pants pocket"
"Oh yeah?"
"Yes, I keep asking Lala, mom buy me what Tha? so bun, talking too loudly until onty Gegey heard. Keep his father see the jewelry was immediately taken, he said a gift for the mother to be more beautiful in use in the veil of the mother"
My mind branched between Bima mas really bought me sincerely, or just alibi alone in order to avoid Gesya. Really praise my beauty, or even praise her hijab that looks beautiful if added with bross accessories.
Suddenly my voice shriveled back as Lala said that. My confidence that had soared, immediately dropped dramatically to be at the lowest level.
"Later mother said thank you father, because already buyin this for mother"
"Yes"
"Yes, I took a shower, son"
"Lala went to Lala's room to get a new bag so you can see?"
"Yes but be careful not to run"
"Yes mother" The child peeped my cheek before getting off the bed__________
I shook my head complete with a smile looking at Lala who stepped out of my room.
Walking towards the bathroom, I refocused my gaze on the bross of Bima giving that I still hold.
Is this a sign that Bima is starting to open her heart to me? but what about his activities this afternoon? why would they both pick Lala up? did they take the time to meet after almost three weeks Bima was assigned in Riau. Missing out, maybe??
Questions filled my head. The jealousy of the claustrophobic suddenly ambushed.
Seriate.
