"What happened to you, Anissa?" ask Arini in full search. For some reason, Arini was really uncomfortable. He was sure that something was being covered by the woman standing before him.
"Bu-nothing, Ma'am. I don't have any intention because I'm just doing it, '" Anissa replied without feeling the slightest guilt.
"Just a whim?!" peekit Arini's. He felt inexhaustible with the reason thrown by Anissa just now.
It turns out that a small commotion that occurred in Arini's room, was heard to the ears of Bu Nining who accidentally passed in front of Dodi and Arini's room.
"Whatis that? There seemed to be a noise in Dodi's room," muttered Bu Nining as she stepped to the door of her son's room.
Slowly Bu Nining opened the door and it turned out that what the middle-aged woman was thinking was right. There was a small debate between Arini and Anissa in the room.
"What is this storm?" Bu Nining walked over to the two women then stood beside Anissa while looking intently at Arini.
"Look, Mom. Don't you think it's weird that this lady dances in a Mas Dodi shirt? Not only that, Anissa also hugged and kissed my husband's shirt. Honestly, I feel weird, Mom," Arini said.
"I swear, Miss Nining. I don't have any intention. I did it for sheer fun. Mbak Arini alone is too excessive," Anissa interrupted while holding the hand of Bu Nining who was standing next to her.
"Too much, you say? What if our position is reversed, Anissa? What if I danced and kissed your husband's shirt! Aren't you going to react the same as me?!" annoyed Arini with great emphasis.
"Here, enough, Arini! It's just a trivial matter and don't have to be overstated! True Anissa said, you're too much!" said Bu Nining who began to be emotionally ignited.
"Geez, Mother! Why are you defending Anissa?" annoyed Arini who did not think out.
"Yes, it's only natural that I defend Anissa. Because he's not like you, lebay!" replied Bu Nining again while grunting in annoyance.
"Already, Anissa. Better leave him alone. Maybe at this time his brain is in error so he can not distinguish which is serious and which is just joking," said Bu Nining later while taking Anissa out of the room.
"Yes, God! Mommy ...." So upset, Arini's eyes to glaze over. He could not understand why Ms. Nining was defending other women instead of her own daughter-in-law.
However, Arini was aware. She was not the daughter-in-law that Miss Nining wanted. Even if he was right, it would still be wrong in the woman's eyes.
"I have to tell this to Mas Dodi and hopefully Mas Dodi believes in my words" Arini said later.
Ms. Nining takes Anissa to the television room and asks the woman to sit there with her. According to Anissa, she sat on the sofa, next to the middle-aged woman.
"She answered my question honestly." Bu Nining looked at Anissa with a serious look.
Anissa looked worried. "W-what's that, Miss Nining?"
"Do you like Dodi? Answer honestly, Anissa. I don't want you to lie because I don't like liars. If you lie to me once, I will never trust you again" Ms. Nining said with emphasis.
Anissa nervous. He was confused what to say. If he lied, the middle-aged woman would never believe his talk again. "Ehm, actually I ...."
"You love Dodi?" continued Bu Nining, still with a serious look looking at the woman.
Slowly Anissa nodded her head. Finally Anissa admitted that she did have more feelings for Dodi. "Yes, Miss Nining. I really like Mas Dodi," said Anissa.
Ms. Nining let out a long breath. "I suspected! I've been suspicious of your attitude that's so considerate of Dodi."
"Is Mom mad at me because I like Mas Dodi? If it is, then I will try to forget it, Ms. Nining," Anissa said, addressing the middle-aged woman.
Bu Nining frowned both of his eyebrows. "Why should I be angry? That's your right, Nis."
"Is that true, Mom?" anissa asked excitedly as she had at least gotten the green light from Bu Nining.
"Yes, of course," replied Ms. Nining.
"Ah, thank you very much, Miss Nining!" peekik Anissa who reflexively hugged Bu Nining's body tightly.
"Heh, already! Don't be like a child!" gerutu Bu Nining while breaking Anissa's embrace.
"Sorry, Mom. I can't hide my happiness" Anissa replied.
