Your husband, Father of Anaku
The Duties of Bu Nur

Happy reading.....

It was night, and the clock was 10:00. But Ardi has not yet returned. Tina waited in the living room while pacing back and forth with anxious feelings, because not usually Ardi came home that late.

At exactly 11:00 p.m., the roar of the car engine rang out of the house, and Tina immediately got up from her seat walking towards the door and opened it. He saw Ardi's face that was so lethargic and tired as well.

''Why are you coming home at this hour?'' tina asked as she took the briefcase from Ardi's hand and carried it, then followed the man's steps into the room.

''A lot of work,'' replied Ardi coldly while climbing the stairs.

After arriving in the room, Ardi immediately opened his shirt. Displays her burly muscles, then goes into the bathroom to clean up.

Tina sighed as she looked at Ardi's cold demeanor. He was used to it, even the nature of Ardi being a daily meal for Tina. Although honestly he was very sick because Ardi always ignored him.

Tina walked towards the window, then stared at the darkness of the night with specks of rain that began to fall from the sky. Tina was really brooding over her unhealthy household.

Tina's feelings for her ex-boyfriend, as well as her ex-husband, Riko. It's still very deep, but as time goes by Tina begins to accept her fate about her marriage with Ardi. Although he had expected from the beginning if his marriage and Ardi would definitely never be smooth.

Tina tries to open her heart for Ardi. She wants to have a harmonious family, even though Tina knows it is impossible, but at least she tries to make her husband fall in love with her. Because after all, Tina was his legal wife in the eyes of the law as well as religion.

Tina will fight for her rights as a wife, and soon the bathroom door opens. Ardi immediately stepped onto the bed and picked up his change of clothes, then walked into the bathroom again without greeting Tina in the least.

''Have you eaten yet?'' tina asked Ardi when the man had finished wearing his nightgown.

''Heemm ...'' Ardi only replied with a murmur.

''If you haven't eaten, I'll prepare the food. I'll warm it back up so you can-''

''How many times have I told you, never care about me! I have eaten, and I am not hungry, replied Ardi in a slightly raised voice.

After saying that, Ardi walked out of the room to go to his study next to his room. And he came in through the connecting door between his room and the study.

Tina rested her body on the bed, her tears flowing back when she heard Ardi's words that slightly snapped at her. Though Tina only wanted to offer him dinner, but the attention that Tina had been giving had never been seen in the slightest.

Ardi rubbed his face violently, then he exhaled his body on the sofa by looking up at the ceiling of the room. Ardi is honestly very tormented by her marriage with Tina, she does not want to hurt the woman.

However, Ardi and Tina are two best friends. They have been friends since High School, but since they became husband and wife their relationship has become tenuous, not as familiar as it used to be. Even seem stiff and keep each other's distance, more precisely Ardilah who keeps distance and limits to Tina.

''Until when will this marriage take place? Will Tina and I be together forever? But I will hurt him more, I tried to open my heart, but still could not. I can't love her, '' said Ardi softly as he closed his eyes.

Ardi breathed out violently, hoping that if time could be turned and repeated, wanting her to say no to Riko, when the man asked her to marry Tina.

'I wish we could meet again. I'd love to see your face. Because every night, you always come in my dreams, ' Inner Ardi while wiping the photo of Mentari that he always made wallpaper on his phone since five years ago.

***********

This morning Mentari was already preparing to go to the place where he was working. And Mentari also did not forget to take Luke with her, because there was no one to take care of the little boy, so everywhere Mentari had to take Luke, including to work.

''Morning,'' Mentari said to one of her friends who was at the restaurant.

''Bagi also Mbak Mentari,'' replied the waiter while looking down with respect coral Mentari.

It just so happened that Mentari was appointed as Manager at one of the restaurants in the Pemalang area, because the old Manager had resigned. So it's Meantarah who replaces that position, because the performance is very good.

''Mbak Mentari, Ibu Nur has been waiting for Mbak Mentari inside, ''' said one of the waiters at the restaurant to Mentari.

''Yes thank you.'' Mentari also stepped into the room of Bu Nur, the owner of the restaurant. And he was very confused as to why Bu Nur called him in the morning like that.

After knocking on the door, Mentari went inside with Luke. ''For Ma'am, said Nadia, Mother called me?'' tanya Mentari while nodding her head

''Yes, Mentari sit first, '' said Bu Nur invited Mentari to sit on the sofa.

''Begini Mentari, I'll just open a restaurant branch in the Jakarta area, and no one has taken care of it at all. So I want you to take care of it there. And I assigned you to go to Jakarta, take care of my restaurant branch that was there. Do you want to?'' ask Bu Nur to Mentari.

The woman was silent when she heard the word Jakarta, as soon as her mind turned to Ardi and also her past with her grandmother. Mentari had forgotten about the city for a long time, but now his superiors even told Mentari to go there.

''What ''What! Jakarta Ma'am?'' ask the Mentari with a surprised face.

Bu Nur nodded his head. ''Yes, Mentari. And I want you to take care of it! I have no replacement at all. I beg you, said Bu Nur with a clear face.

Mentari wanted to reject him, because he really wanted to leave the city. And it's been five years since he left the city of Jakarta, but now fate has brought him back. However, when seeing the face of Bu Nur, Mentari did not have the heart. Because all this time Bu Nur has helped her a lot.

''Okay, Mom. When will I go there?''

''The day after tomorrow you have gone there, delivered by my driver. And there I have prepared a home for you. So, you do not need to contract, explained Bu Nur with a smile.

Mentari resigned, then he resigned out of Bu Nur's room and headed to his room.

'I hope I will never see Ardi again. I don't want to remember the painful times with her, ' Inner Mentari is hopeful. So that he and Ardi would not meet again in that great city.
