The Retaliation of a Wife Considered a Household Parasite
125: Travel to Jakarta
After Maghrib, Arum and Kalandra really went to Jakarta. Kalandra drives alone and their departure is very heavy because for the first time, they will be away from Aidan for a long time.
Back there, in front of the gate, Aidan, who was taken by Mr. Sana, was led to wave his hands, drugs at the departure of Kalandra's car. Arum himself continued to look back while waving his right hand and of course crying. Another with Kalandra who looks tough and just watches from the rearview mirror outside her right. Kalandra deliberately tried hard so that his wife did not roar. Kalandra was sure it would really happen if she showed sadness let alone tears.
“Mas sure drive yourself?” arum said while closing the window shut. Then he pulled out a few strands of dried tissue in front of him, using them to wipe away his tears.
“Iya. Nyetir itself especially if the trip is far, make me feel safe,” reply Kalandra while reaching for a coffee glass and then drink it.
The smell of black coffee is very fragrant because it is brewed with water that is completely boiling, mastering the atmosphere of the car.
“If so tomorrow-tomorrow, I was taught to drive yes, so that if going anywhere, can change the drive,” said Arum was still busy wiping around his eyes. He was still upset and could not stop his tears just because he had to separate for a long time from Aidan. Because although aware Aidan is safe especially mother Kalsum and Mr. Sana also very fond of the boy, it feels there is still less. As said, Arum's heart will always be crispy-crenyes in every he away from the fruit of his heart let alone a short time.
Kalandra immediately mesem then looked at his wife. “Yes Mamah memorized the road?”
“It's live with GPS, right? Turn right, turn left, straight what goes into the T-junction,” reply Arun innocently.
Kalandra immediately restrained her smile. He put his coffee glass into place. While the left hand that just put the coffee grabbed the back of Arum's head. “Right turn left, there is a fork hit. Ih Mah, follow GPS sometimes also dissatin. Like well, if we blas do not know the way, just want to go ahead we are on the computers. Shyarlah us.”
“But right, I'm smart, Mas. Easy memorization!” reply Arum sure as sure.
The plain answer of the wife greatly comforted a Kalandra. “You car?”
Arum who was still wiping away the tears instantly fell silent for a moment, before he finally looked seriously at Kalandra. “Mas want to buyin?”
Kalandra. “If Darling wants, I'll buy it!” sureness.
“Ya already Mas, buyin only. Later I learn to drive, if I can't, when I drive, others tell me to step aside!” sure Arum.
Kalandra couldn't help but laugh.
“Ih, how come Mas even laughed?” arum Protest.
“If others tell you to step aside, where are they going, Yang?”
“Ya by road, Mas. But I used to make safety together!”
Sighing slowly, Kalandra nodded. “Later if it's born, I buy a car. If so, you're pregnant again. Waswas if you drove.”
“Yes the others told to move aside Mas,” sure Arum.
“Yes may not want, later there they menggamuk.”
“And this street has my ancestors, Mas!”
“Shared ancestor, The!” sure Kalandra and Arum even laughed.
“You yes ...”
What Arum knows, Kalandra has not yet given a video of Resty's submission to Mr. Maheza, because her husband did not want to be mistaken is rare. Moreover, dealing with important people in the class of Mr. Maheza is very sensitive, plus the things they will reveal are also really sensitive.
“Mas, .. Can I have a coffee?” lirih Arum while glancing meaningfully at the husband.
Kalandra who had just sipped her coffee again, turned her head immediately, making her look at the wife. Judging from his expression, Arum looked very eager to drink coffee. But Kalandra does not forget, caffeine is recommended to be reduced for pregnant and lactating women. The problem is that if it is banned, Kalandra believes that his wife is crying because lately, Arum has become sensitive.
“Bby, but just a little. Can't be much, right.” Kalandra gave her coffee cup.
Arum immediately smiled cheerfully accepting it. “Reason coffee can make us more literate how is the story, anyway, Mas?” He sipped his coffee while glancing at Kalandra who he was waiting for his answer. Her husband was still focused on driving.
“The story of gini, from ancient times, there is a thing called caffeine. Well this caffeine is an alkaloid compound xantina, crystal shape and taste hook. This is like a psychoactive drug and a mild diuretic that stimulates the work of the heart while increasing urine production. This caffeine also makes the brain so fresher, so it inhibits sleepiness too,” Kalandra story.
“Lah time? But this is how I stay sleepy, Mas?” sergeant Arum cut a fairy tale from the husband.
Kalandra direct kicep. “Means your sleepy level you are already high, Yang. And it looks like the innate hormones are the same DESTINY as well.”
Arum laughed, feeling anxious for her husband. “The destiny was brought!”
“Ya already, sleeping,” says Kalandra.
“Later Mas, I want to nemenin Mas let Mas not sleepy. Until the final blood point anyway!” sure Arum. He put his coffee glass and immediately grabbed a row of food supplies in the back seat.
“Mas want rujak?” tawar Arum's.
After finishing this meal, instead of being able to be literate, Arum actually slept because of the satiety. Kalandra who was left alone became busy laughing at his wife's behavior.
“Ya Alloh, Which .. how are you so funny? Heboh eat while chatting, uh the edges of sleep,” said Kalandra. His left hand was busy justifying the blanket that enveloped the wife's body.
The trip to Jakarta which was also their first long trip, felt very pleasant because Arum who remained sleepy and tried to accompany the husband, in the end remained tight after satiety.
“It's like cravings again move to me so Mas can focus on driving, yes?” keluh Arum and Kalandra just laughed at him.
“Mas, later we directly to the rent mbak Resty, what to the house sir Maheza?” ask Arum.
“To hire Resty first, continue the new afternoon meeting with Mr. Maheza. I'll make the appointment at lunchtime.” Kalandra pulled the car over. They are taking time to rest in one of the rest areas around Purwakarta.
“To the toilet, all bring soap. I want to take a shower so I don't sleep,” said Kalandra.
Arum shook his head firmly, rejecting Kalandra's invitation. “Mas still have to sleep, two or three hours. After that, we just went on a journey. Make security together. If you want to go to the toilet, come on because I pee too. After this, I sleep first. Sleep in the back so you can slap. It's I'm really angry that Mas reached nolak!”
Kalandra mesem while nodding. “Come down to the toilet first.”
And after that, Kalandra actually slept in the back seat on Arum's lap. This time it was Kalandra who was actually sleeping, while the literate Arum was back busy eating.
“Nah, this cravings has moved to bapake again!” batin Arum blushed to look at the face of Kalandra who was still closed in peace on his lap.
