My Boyfriend Is An Alien
Episode 45: Spontaneous

It turned out that Alma was actually sleeping, and had just woken up at 5 p.m. When he woke up his mother was packing to go home, because soon Bara would come home from tutoring. And it's getting dark, so pity if Bara's home alone.

Sean left an hour ago. He said he had to take English lessons at home, initially Sean wanted to skip lessons, but it turned out Alma did not wake up, so Sean went home and took lessons.

" Let me drive my mother to the car", Akio put some fruits in a plastic bag to take her mother home. Bara would be very happy if his mother came home with her hands.

" Mommy wants to go home?, greetings to Bara ya Bu, continue if tomorrow mom is busy with loundry stalls, mom is not here papa, Alma is better, Alma is better, you can go to the bathroom by yourself and no longer limp".

Indeed Alma now looks fresher and fresher, not as pale as yesterday. But still Maemunah remains worried about his situation.

" Mother tomorrow I'll stay. Nak Akio will have to go to school, the loundry kiosk will have three people guarding, not added new employees who just started leaving tomorrow".

Alma and Akio looked at each other.

" When did you hire her new employee?, since yesterday was not she here Nemenin Alma?", asked Akio curiously.

" Yes, the mother does not open a massive job vacancy, so there is no need for selection, because two new employees who want to work one is the husband of the mother's employee, and the other is the sister-in-law of the mother's employee. He said in the rice field there is no work, so join the work of one so driver to shuttle the laundry, and the other help ironing, he said he was used to ironing at home".

" Let's see what tomorrow's result is ".

" That's it, ma'am, tomorrow's mom has to go to the stall, they're new employees, you have to tell me what they're going to do".

" And also mothers should keep an eye on how they are performing, good or not. Alma's gonna be fine, there's a lot of nurses. And also Akio tomorrow can be allowed to go home early".

Though Maemunah intends to accompany Alma tomorrow, so that Akio can still go to school, and not interfere with his activities. But Alma's words seemed not to expect his arrival.

" Well, if that's what you want, then you're more comfortable next to Akio than you are with mom".

Hearing the words of his mother Alma only realized that his words had hurt his mother's heart.

" I'm sorry. The new mother opened a new business, not long ago and still in a state of learning to do business, Alma did not want there to be problems just because the mother accompanied Alma here, while the mother's employees there were new to work, Alma did not want there would be problems just because she accompanied Alma here, and need guidance".

" Mom don't feel that Alma is more comfortable with me, than with mother, because there really is a relationship that is not thicker than a blood bond" said Akio spontaneously.

Maemunah who had already felt disappointed could hardly digest Alma's good intentions.

" Well, if that's the best thing, tomorrow I'll probably stay here but noon, during the loundry kiosk break. Mom said to go home first. Get well soon, I will always pray for your health".

Maemunah came out of the room, followed by Akio who brought a plastic bag containing fruit for Bara.

" A... was there a wrong word?, why did you even talk that way", asked Alma while staring at the ceiling of the room.

Akio shook his head. " From what I read from her heart, your mother was jealous of me, she felt that you would rather be with me on appeal with her. That's why the mother is sad and disappointed", Akio sleeps in Alma's bed, tilted to face Alma.

" But that's not what I mean, A.", Alma changed her position on her side to face Akio.

" Yes, I know what you mean, because I can read your heart, but not your mother, she doesn't know what you mean, because she can't read your mind".

" You take it easy, even if I take care of you here, there will be a confidant of mine who will oversee the work at the loundry kiosk".

" Oh yes, dear.I asked the doctor when he visited, when you slept earlier, I asked how long I should not touch you".

" The doctor said for 40 days, meaning until we will leave for Almaty, Kazakhstan. I just touched you".

Alma could see a sad expression on Akio's face, but she laughed instead.

" You're not so rich, I'm healthy, and this morning when you went to school, the doctor had an implant in my left arm, look". Alma showed the bandage on her left arm, rolling up her sleeve.

Akio had just seen it since, because the sleeves worn by Alma were long, so Akio was not aware there was a medical on Alma's arm.

" So I've got implants?, I don't think so. I was just about to ask, it was already installed ".

Alma smiled, "it's 5 years, so when it's 5 years, we're here again to remove the implant, so we can have offspring".

"Akio nodded in understanding, because yesterday night had time to browse about various contraceptives, and indeed the implant looks the most effective.

" It's a good thing your sleeves are long, so you didn't see any bandages on your arms". Akio just remembered that his friends had come to visit.

" I deliberately wore long clothes, it was predicted that someone would come, and it turned out that my estimate was right". Alma was a little bragging. What a rare moment to see Alma like that.

" This is from Alma's sister, she sends you a greeting".

Maemunah immediately handed the plastic bag containing the fruit to Bara.

At home there is no refrigerator, so if you have fruits must be spent immediately, otherwise it will rot.

" Is Brother Alma well, Mom, when will Alma come home?", Bara opened the plastic bag and immediately sparkled to see the contents. There are apples, oranges, pears, grapes, sapodilla and also kiwi.

" She's better now, but if she's home, she'll probably go home to her rich husband".

Maemunah walked into the room to change clothes.

I don't know why lately his heart feels sad because of things related to Alma. Though Alma was happy when he was with Akio, and they were married, Maemunah should also be happy.

But right now he feels unhappy. " Or maybe I'm lonely?".

" Should I think of getting married again, so that this house is not too quiet".

" Maybe this time Alma will no longer reject the man I choose, because she is already happy with her own life", inner Maemunah.

Maemunah came out of the room and approached Bara who was watching television while enjoying the fruit he had brought.

" Bara..!, do you agree that if you marry again?, you want to have a new father", Maemunah suddenly spontaneously asked what came to her mind to Bara just like that.

The coals that were feeding wine into his mouth gawked until it rolled out, and fell on the floor.

" Why did you suddenly ask that?, did anyone propose to you this afternoon?", if in this situation, Bara felt that he needed Alma's presence.
