Arsatya came home when it changed days. Before going to bed, he took the time to visit the twins' room to see their development which must have been nothing because the man saw when his two daughters were already sound in sleep.
Just the sight of the woman and her two children that she always saw every night before her sleep, he had no intention of approaching or saying good-bye to the three just looking from a distance and making sure everything was still going well even without him.
“Satya,” suddenly someone's voice sounded when he had just closed the door of that room.
“Ma? Not sleeping?” asked the man who was half surprised because of Ranti's sudden presence.
Ranti did not answer, instead saying something else. “Can we talk?”
“What's the matter? It's night,” timpal Arsatya.
“About Anindya, she's a woman who–”
However, the man cut off the mother's greeting, “No, Ma. Not now, I'm tired of taking a break.”
Discussing Anindya, is something that Arsatya avoids for now especially what might be discussed by Ranti if not about her marriage. Then, he just left his mother.
However, before his son went further, Ranti managed to hold his son's arm, “Anin was already willing to undergo her marriage. You mustn't ignore it, Mas.” Ranti's soft words to her son.
Instead of saying yes, Arsatya said something quite painful in her mother's mind. “Enough. Mama must not interfere in my household, this has become our agreement before marriage. Only up to two years, there is nothing more than this marriage besides meeting the needs of my two children's ASI, as requested by mama.”
“Arsatya, but mama knows–” Ranti tried to say one thing, but again her speech was cut by the son.
Arsatya turned around, looking at her mother with a non-wearing look, “Have you not been satisfied or guilty of what happened to me because of my mother who always forced me? Marrying me to Amelia without my consent resulted in regret for the rest of my life. Now that I have loved Amelia as deep as a trough in the ocean, why did you ask me to accept another woman? It was like she was going to drop me into the same hole. Not anymore, Ma. I am an adult, no need to manage my life should be how or what,” said Arsatya who turned out to speak as loud as that to his mother, making Ranti never guessed if the son thought like that on his good intentions all along.
“Arsatya, mama only wants the best for you,” said Ranti before Arsatya went further. The woman only wants the best for her son, her intentions are pure nothing else. However, it turns out that the acceptance of his son is different because of what Ranti thinks is good, not necessarily Arsatya has the same thoughts.
“Which according to mama is good, not necessarily good for me. If mama like this continues, you better go home to your own mama. Do not need to be here and pestered my life,” said Arsatya who made Ranti's chest as if pierced by a sharp object that hurts.
Tomorrow morning.
Upon opening her eyes, Anindya had seen her mother-in-law swinging the baby in her cradle. Anindya felt bad because her sleep was too deep so she did not hear when the twins woke up and whined.
“No, Nin. They were not crying, really, mom just wanted to carry them,” replied Ranti.
However, there was an oddity that Anindya saw from her in-laws' attitude, including her neat appearance that early. “Tante, where are you going? How neat is it?” Finally Anindya asked one of the strangenesses seen.
“Nin, about what mom said yesterday, you don't have to think about it anymore, yeah. Just walk according to your heart, including the existing agreement,” said Ranti suddenly as she rubbed the soft cheeks of baby Ansha.
“Which greeting, Tan?”
“About mama who told you to start accepting this married life,” said Ranti who looks increasingly strange in the eyes of Anindya.
“What's up, Tan? Why Aunty looks different today, is Anin wrong with Auntie?” Anindya instead became panicked in this situation.
“No, that's just Mama's message. Follow the will of your heart, do not you feel depressed because of the words of your mother yesterday,” said Ranti who made Anindya more curious about what happened, what happened, then he got up and immediately the eye looked at the floor where there was a large bag near the feet of his father-in-law.
“Tante, what's that big bag for? Where's aunt going?”
Ranti was silent, they both stared at the big bag on the floor, “Mama was leaving, Nin. Go home by yourself,” replied Ranti.
Anindya was made more astonished. Ranti's passing, why has there been no news since long ago.
“Why all of a sudden, Tan? Something's wrong here, right? Did Anin make a mistake or did aunty and Mas Satya fight over Anin?” asked the black haired beauty on her back.
“No, Mama should have gone home. This is your home, it's not good that mom has been here for a long time and has been researching your domestic life. Already, titip them yes, mama believes in Anin,” said Ranti.
“No, there must be something. Aunty can't go in such a hurry. I have to talk to Mas Satya,” Anindya then walk to the table and pick up her phone lying there.
“This must have something to do with Mas Satya, why did aunty suddenly leave like this? Let me call him,” thought Anindya at that time who thought Arsatya must have left for work.
Some calls have no answer even if the phone is connected. Not Anindya by name, if she gives up in one try. More than five times he dialed, eventually connecting as well. “Halo, Mas Satya. This Aunt Ranti suddenly wants to go home by herself he said,” said Anindya who did not want to mince words when the phone was answered.
At the time Anindya was very anxious because her phone had just been answered, while Ranti had walked to a taxi in front of the house. However, Arsatya's answer was even beyond estimates that made Anindya even more furious, “Leave it,” said the man.
