Happy reading 😊

*

We were invited to sit down by bi Sumi, she was allowed to go to the kitchen for a while to make us a drink .

after the death of bi Sumi I looked around and home page bi Sumi . Very comfortable and Asri typical house in the village .

"Is this house too small Ane? , if yes I can find you somewhere else "asked Rio who was watching me .

"No .. here is very beautiful, I'm comfortable staying here if bi Sumi lets me hitch a ride in her house while "clear me .

Of course while , I couldn't possibly trouble bi Sumi forever . in her current age should she be able to relax every day with her grandchildren , but it's a pity that God didn't allow her to have children .

Instantly I felt grateful for my pregnancy & so many people out there were struggling to have offspring .

Then I, who have been trusted by God, must take good care of him .

"please drink, sorry if your aunt has not cooked . understand aunt lives alone so fitting aunt feels hungry new aunt cook "

Bi Sumi came with two glasses of warm tea and a plate of traditional cake .

"this aunt is rich as anyone" Rio replied kindly

Bi Sumi sat in front of us, after tasting tea made by bi Sumi . we began to express our intention of arrival .

"Bi this is my friend her name is Ane , she wants to hitchhike stay here can you please ?" Rio opened the conversation

"Yes can den , aunty even seneng there who take care of aunt's house moon tomorrow return to the place of Miss Retno " replied bi Sumi

"I mean, auntie stay here just help keep Ane . She is pregnant bi , there is a problem with her lover . Ane also has no one else bi , both parents have long died . if the matter of work aunt just relax let me explain the same mama . aunty will also keep me her monthly salary "Obviously Rio again

Bi Sumi pensively heard Rio's explanation .

I who felt bad to see his silence bi Sumi . added "That's even if aunt doesn't mind, allow me to hitchhike here until my son is born bi "

"Keep if his child is born, not going where ?" ask bi Sumi in a low voice

"I will find a rented house bi, even I will start looking for a job tomorrow "my answer

"Duh gusti, non here only stay the same aunt . Den Rio also does not need to pay aunty, aunty savings during the cooperation of the Rio den family is still there .tea aunty wants to work again because she feels lonely at home den . non here only yes, aunt also no longer have who who "Ob obviously Sumi with glassy eyes , as her outline bi Sumi already know what happened to me . can be seen from the look of her sad face .

"Thank you bi "answer I hold back the cry, remembering my late mother . Is he also sad to see my current fate ?

After his bi Sumi told me to rest in room , in the house bi Sumi there are two rooms .the other room is her while the other is the guest room . The guest room is clean, because every day bi Sumi always clean her .

While Rio rested in the guest chair bi Sumi .

I feel very bad , it has been a lot of trouble Rio . Somehow he would help me just like that.When our relationship is just an ordinary friend who has not known for a long time, maybe he feels sorry to see me .

Before entering room & room, Rio came up to me and showed me his phone that was ringing .

it says Alingga's name on the incoming call .

Rio picked up his phone , and there was the voice of Alingga asking about me to Rio .

I blocked Rio's hand and coded it by shaking his head .

After closing the call from Alingga, Rio asked me to rest .

without taking a long time, I came out of the bathroom in polite home clothes .

Going beside bi Sumi who was busy in the kitchen preparing dinner, I helped bi Sumi cook .

"non rest only yes, must be tired right . let aunt who does "pinta bi Sumi

"I've had a bi break, after all I'm also used to cooking myself . and aunty just call me Ane , don't wear 'non' I'm not an aunt's employer " I was joking at bi Sumi

After her we cooked together, while telling her about our lives each .

Finished cooking I arranged the dishes and dishes that we had cooked on the front floor of the carpeted tv . Bi Sumi said that she and her husband rarely eat together, except once a month when she is off work and back home so bi Sumi does not have a dining table .

I was instead pleased with this simplicity, for someone who from birth spent time in a big city . Life here is so quiet and peaceful .

FLECKISH

The door of the house opened, Rio entered with carrying many bags of groceries .

Bi Sumi helped Rio carry the grocery bag and put it on the table .

"I've bought all your needs and bi Sumi here, including pregnant milk" Rio said as he approached me .

"Why bother bother , whereas the plan is tomorrow I will go out shopping while looking for a suitable job when I wake up ' said bi Sumi you go out shopping "reply me

"I don't feel bothered, about the work we will discuss later at this time I am very hungry"

Rio said jokingly

The three of us had dinner together, with laughter from the occasional joke Rio made . For a moment I can forget my sadness at this moment

I cleaned up our dinner plates with Rio's help, while bi Sumi waited in the kitchen to wash her she said if she didn't quickly take her place . I'll do everything . We both laughed to see Sumi bi who was like he was on standby in front of the sink .

After dinner, Rio and I sat on the terrace of Sumi bi house . feel the typical silence of the atmosphere in the village .

"I have a restaurant here too, but it's not as big as in Jakarta . in its city area about an hour's drive from here . If you want you can help me take care of it, but with the record you should not be too tired . also commuting to work by car provided by resto there will be a driver who takes you, just relax the driver is not a private driver but the driver who is usually in charge of delivering food orders , and shopping for the "fresh Rio restaurant

" is this not too much ? you've helped me a lot somehow I can repay your kindness all "I explained .

"Aren't you ready to make friends with me, so there's no reply "

"One , I'm afraid you're okay if you take public transportation . Actually I don't want to tell you to work at the resto, but if I don't offer help you'll be looking for a job out there . right ?" connect her again

"Water pregnant" I said arrived

understanding that I had already changed the direction of our conversation, Rio was just listening .

"He came to see me in front of Alingga's office this morning, he said that it was Alingga's son . Even he gave evidence that they slept together all this time , he came to ask me to leave Alingga . she said Lingga told Dara about our relationship before getting engaged "I started sobbing

"when last night Lingga called if he was staying at his mama's house, he ... he lied .. he ... in Dara's apartment last night either how many times have I ... in his lie .... "my tears are breaking more and more, Rio hugged me letting my tears spill on his shirt without saying anything .

He knew at this moment I didn't need a sweet word, I just needed a shoulder to lean on .
