THE ESCAPED BRIDE ESCAPED

THE ESCAPED BRIDE ESCAPED
38. Eyang Expelled


At five in the morning Aya woke up. His body aches from sleeping. The eyes are used to seeing in the dark. She had a blanket covering her body. Then fold it neatly.


"What time is it? Don't be late to go home!" Hastily tidied up the crumpled sheets. Grab the phone in a small bag on the nightstand.


"Yes God! Morning already. Will get angry," he murmured seeing unanswered messages and calls lined up on his phone.


She rushed to the bathroom to wash her face. Then take the bag and get out of the apartment without looking back.


By ordering a taxi, Aya came home. Along the way, he prepared his heart and they-designed a reasonable answer.


Half an hour later, the sound of a taxi horn disturbed the tranquility of the residence's morning. Security opens the door. Gayatri's face was blown away behind a half-glass window.


"Mr, where have you been? The whole house is confused looking. If it doesn't come back by noon, Eyang will call the police hlo." Security told without question.


Aya just kept quiet not retaliating. Steps accelerated. He did not realize that Eyang was standing in the corner of the terrace.


"Where have you been?"


Eyang's thunderbolt shocked Aya. His steps immediately came to a halt and turned to face the old man.


Not yet Aya replied, Eyang has connected his words again.


"Deliver without news, and just come home in the morning!"


Aya chose silence and listened to Eyang's scolding until it was over. If Eyang's words are not allowed to finish, Eyang will actually be even more angry.


"Are you still not an adult? Take a little responsibility. Don't keep bothering the family! If you want to live your life as you please, you better get out of here!"


Aya was surprised, not expecting that cruel Eyang. His lips trembled and tightly clenched holding all the words he wanted to shed.


"Sir!" Mami's voice was shocked to hear Eyang's ultimatum.


"We must first listen to the answer before saying such a thing!" sela mami's.


"Huh! You spoil her too much. Even though he humiliated the family so many times, you still defend him!" eyang was angry. The old man walked in and left his daughter looking on in disbelief.


"Yes my daughter! If I don't defend him, who else?" mami replied fiercely. But Eyang has disappeared behind the door.


"Let's go in first. You just go home, my mom is grateful. You must have a reasonable explanation." Mami pulls Aya's hand towards the house.


Aya persisted and her eyes implied about Eyang's speech. Mami understood Aya's reluctance. "Forget those words. They are just worried!" persuade mami.


Reluctantly Aya followed the mother into the house. The two immediately entered the room under the astonished gazes of Papi and Radit. But the two men asked nothing. They can see how mom is keeping Aya from bullying anyone in the house.


"Your body is the same as yesterday. Are you staying at a friend's place?" ask mami softly.


Aya shook her head. "Yes came home early in the afternoon. Then remember that the laundry in the God's apartment has not been lifted. So Aya went there. Then iron everything. Aya just meant to lie down for a while because she was tired. I don't know if I fall asleep right away. Waking up at five, check the phone in the bag. Keep looking for a taxi back here" Gayatri explained.


Mami's eyes saw the truth from her daughter's eyes. Aya did not lie at all. Mami nodded. "Then you must be very hungry. Sleep without dinner."


"Go take a shower, go to the dining room. Mami ready to have a warm porridge for you." Mami stood up and immediately exited the room, leaving Aya alone.


"How's Mi?" ask Papi who is waiting outside the room.


"How's what?" ask mami indifferently.


"Where was it last night?"


"Mommy believes?" ask Radit. Mami nodded.


Radit and Papi look at each other. Then shrug each other's shoulders. If Mom had said that, then that's how it is. No one disputes anymore.


"Well, what's going on now?" ask Papi who saw his wife immediately busy in the kitchen.


"So tired he was, he forgot dinner and just fell asleep. If not given warm porridge, he can catch a cold later."


My mom kept in the kitchen. Even papi could not interrupt her when the beloved princess was in need of special attention.


At half-seven, Aya was neat with her work clothes. He's headed for the dining room. His stomach was very hungry. The smell of mami's cooking arouses her taste.


"Are you ready for Nduk?" ask mommy with a warm smile. "This is chicken porridge for you. Let's eat while it's warm."


A bowl of porridge with chicken suwiran and soto soup was pushed in front of Aya. Then the fragrant and warm spice tea is juxtaposed with the bowl.


"Take the tea, so as not to catch a cold!" mom's message. The woman was busy preparing breakfast.


"Thank you, Mi." Aya looked at the back of mami with haru. My mom is the most understanding. Slowly sip the spice tea made by mami. The warmth that made his stomach comfortable was empty since night.


"Is the breakfast done?" That's the sound of a greeting papi. The middle-aged man also looked neat. Ready to go to work.


"Yes. Which radit?" My mom asked back. Papi puts the shoulder of the ignorant sign. Then sit next to Aya. See his daughter's drink with pursed lips.


"Make me the same drink as Aya" he asked.


"Hemm ..." said the mother who was pouring the drink without being asked.


"It." A beautiful porcelain cup was placed in front of her husband. Then my mom turned her body around to get me some papi breakfast.


"Antarin Aya to your office." Aya and papi knew that it was not a request sentence, but a command. Only one answer. "Yes," said papi quickly.


"Where are we going?" ask papi then. Raised a cup while sipping a warm spice drink made by mami.


"Yes fell asleep in the Dewa's apartment, Pi. I don't mean to panic all the families. Don't tell me to go there, because the plan is also to go home. Just take a break, uh .. overslept. So when I woke up this morning Aya immediately took a taxi home."


Again, he explained the incident last night. Papi nodded in understanding. The man took a long breath. Maybe he could feel what his daughter was thinking. The new husband died, but was already urged to marry another man. Although Arjuna is a twin of God, it is still different from his deceased son-in-law who knows the manners.


"Eh, yesterday I also called Arjuna to ask you. Was held in the office until late. Said you were home at five."


Aya nodded while feeding the porridge to the mouth. "Because it was home that afternoon, so Aya stopped by the apartment to tidy up the time was not finished," the girl again.


"Oi ... So the story."


"Even so, it's better that Ma'am Aya still tell you the plan to stop by where after returning from work. Let's not search the whole house anymore. Which is so sewot." Radit. The man sat at the dinner table holding his daughter.


"Sorry yes, trouble everything. Later Aya will tell if there are plans to stop by after returning home from work," he promised.


"So dong, papi's daughter." Aya's shoulders were gently patted on the papi, to calm her down.


"Pi, can't you if Aya lives in the God's apartment?" ask the girl doubt.


All eyes suddenly looked at Aya with a look of disbelief.
