Bitter Tongue In-Law

Bitter Tongue In-Law
31. Sculled


Arga brought his motor with a half-dreaming state. He does look indifferent and denying when in front of everyone, but it is undeniable that when he was alone he thought about the results of DNA tests and also the face of the baby he had just seen.


To be honest, there were strange feelings and feelings when he was near the baby. The strange feeling he had felt when he followed the taxi driver who took his wife to the new house.


Yes, after the night of his quarrel with Bian, the next day Arga came back to the hospital intending to ask Nuna to sign the divorce papers. However, he had not been able to meet his wife Arga had found Bian who was in the yard along with Nuna and her mother. Seeing them enter the same car, Arga finally moved to follow the car they were riding in.


Arga is now almost past the hospital where Nuna gave birth as well as the place where Bian did DNA tests. Amidst the anxiety and also the inner quarrel he experienced, he stopped his motorbike on the side of the road. He stared at the large building with a pus. Should he go there to relax his heart?


After a long time of thinking, Arga finally turned his motorbike into a building that was never curbed by the human plural. Although hesitant, he still carried his steps forward.


°°°


While elsewhere, after Arga's departure, Nuna sat languidly on the floor. Who wouldn't be ruined if his life was like Nuna's today. Split up with her husband, her disowned son, and wait, didn't she have to ask Bian one thing?


Nuna wiped away her rough tears and instantly stood up as her mother was just about to win her over.


"Bian, you still owe me one explanation. What did you mean by that? What do you know about Arga? Who's he got pregnant with?" The look in Nuna's eyes strongly indicated that she was heartbroken.


Nuna's eye movements made Bian choose to shut up. How could he explain what he knew in such a situation? Nuna's heart was already quite broken into pieces, there was no need for it to add the pieces into melts and smaller grains.


Tears that continued to flow, but did not sound a sobbing made Bian's heart feel pinched, there was an uneasy taste that suddenly greeted when he saw the water droplets flowing smoothly and unhindered freely.


"I answered you!" pinta Nuna.


Bian had not spoken, his intention that did not want to tell about Arga now apparently supported by Cashel. The baby who had fallen asleep suddenly woke up and cried loudly.


Nuna immediately took the child from her mother and walked into the room. Bian finally breathed in relief. He was freed from Nuna, but not his mother. The old woman looked at Bian with a gaze that seemed to demand an explanation like Nuna did earlier.


"I don't want this story to be the same with Nuna. I was worried that what I was saying was making Nuna mentally fall apart. So Nuna's husband had actually impregnated another woman. I don't know who he is and they've been in contact for a long time. Nuna's husband has an intention that she will get married after they officially divorce. That I heard myself from the mouth of Nuna's husband right on the day Nuna gave birth."


Nuna's mother was unable to put out her sentence. He runs out of words to describe Nuna's life since she got married. Moreover, when he remembers every time they communicate by phone, Nuna is very good at hiding what she experienced.


Nuna's mother sat on the sofa, covering her face with both palms with her shoulders shaking. As much as possible he hid his stuff so that it was not heard by the child.


A few seconds later, Bian was sitting not far from Nuna's mother. He looked up and wiped away his tears as he realized that he was too late in grief.


"Thank you Bian, you already care about my son. Your actions are simple, but have a big impact on Nuna. He would have been more devastated than he is now if he knew that."


"Now what we think is how to let Nuna forget what happened to her quickly. Yeah at least he's not focused on the same issue. What do we love her, Mom?"


They finally dissolve and are immersed in each other's thoughts.


If Bian and Ibu Nuna think about Nuna's mental health and heart the next day, different from Arga who was also suddenly like his life was taken by force by circumstances. He walked out of the hospital with little energy left.


The truth he had just heard really made his heart seem to stop. Intention of the heart wants to make his thoughts and feelings calm, now what happens is exactly the opposite.


"Yes, Sir. This is the original letter from our hospital. This sign only belongs to the letter that came out of our hospital" said one of the sisters on duty at the time. His finger pointed at a typical hospital logo.


Devastated was Arga's life then, the boy who was so he about his presence was apparently his own flesh blood. The series of events before today finally inevitably turned back on his head.


The turn of each moment finally brought Arga to the moment where the beginning of the misunderstanding occurred.
