Chapter 20 - Past memories

Flashback On.

"Ndut, if you refuse me to be your husband, then no one will want to marry you, you know." Little Al said to the girl he called 'fat'.

"Many want to be my husband when I grow up, not just you, Bweek...!" Answer fat.

"You don't know what, your body is fat where there is a man who wants to be with you." Little Al reproaches on the fat one.

"Then why do you want to be my husband if no other man wants to be my husband." asked the fat man while crossing his arms and standing proudly behind Al who was feeding catfish in his grandfather's pond.

"Yes, because I am kind enough to be your husband." Little Al replied casually and a haughty smile that didn't want to lose to the fat guy.

"I don't want to accept your kindness. Huh. Bwek….!" The fat man then turned his body and ran leaving little Al who looked back to see a fat girl with two pigtails on her head walking away.

Little Al got up, then walked over with both hands he put in his pants pockets. He intended to return to his grandfather's villa which was not far from the pond that lined there. But in the middle of the road he again saw the fat man who was chatting with a male friend of his age. From a distance little Al looked at the little girl and the boy who was talking mocking the fat girl.

"Eh, ugly fat, no one will want to play with you, you are ugly, fat, and here… your hair is like horse hair, I don't want to be your husband when we grow up." said the little man.

"But you promised me that time."

"Yeah, I thought I never made a promise to you, after all we were still small, there were no promises." said the little man again.

"Well if you don't want to, later I will definitely marry a handsome prince like in a fairy tale."

"Hahahhah… You don't dream, how would you like a prince and a fat girl like you." The man said again.

The fat man looked down sadly, then slowly clear dots came out of his eyes.

"You fat, weepy girl!" The little boy's slur made Fatty cry even louder. Meanwhile, the little boy left just like that, leaving the fat girl behind.

Little Al who couldn't bear to see the fat guy the only friend he had every time he vacationed at his grandfather's house was this fat girl, the son of the villa guard and at the same time the foreman in his grandfather's garden.

"Don't cry anymore, you're not as ugly as she says." Said little Al comforting the fat man.

"But you said I was ugly, fat, and no one wanted to marry me when I grew up." said the fat man.

"Listen, Ndut. I will be your husband in the future, I am your soul mate, I promise to marry you when we are adults." Little Al said.

"Promise?" said the fat man.

"I promise Ndut."

"But you still call me fat."

"You're really fat, if you're skinny, I'll call you the skinny one, not the fat one."

The fat man was silent but still looked down, then the little Al framed the fat's chubby cheeks using his two small hands.

"Don't cry anymore, let's go home." Said little Al then wiped the tears on the fat guy's cheeks, and took him home down the hilly road to little Al's grandfather's house.

Arriving at Al's house, he entered his grandfather's house, then looked for the whereabouts of his grandparents who turned out to be in the back garden with his mother Fatty who was helping his grandparents grow vegetables in the back garden.

"Grandpa!" cried little Al.

"What's wrong my grandson?" asked the grandfather.

"Grandpa, later when Al grows up, Al wants to marry the fat man." Al said as he looked back and pointed at the fat man who was standing not far from his mother. All eyes turned to Al and the fat man and laughed.

"You're being ridiculous Al, you're still young, and you know where to get married anyways." asked the grandfather.

"Yesterday, when there was a man and a woman in the neighbor's house who were paraded using a trishaw, that's because they married Grandpa, then the fat man and his male friends were also dressed as brides, but the boy didn't want to. with the fat man, but Al wants to marry the fat man, so if tomorrow the fat man is dressed again, grandfather calls Al, so that Al is not the ugly man, it doesn't suit the fat man." Said little Al at length making the grandfather laugh out loud.

"Okay, later you will accompany the fat, at your aunt's wedding with your uncle." Grandpa answered, making Al scream with joy, and smile widely.

"Asiikkk, thank you grandpa." Little Al replied and then left his grandfather and approached the fat man while holding the little girl's fat hands.

"You heard it yourself, Ndut. One day I will marry you, I am your husband." Little Al said. Everyone there did not mind what the two boys said, because indeed they were still small and did not understand the meaning of marriage, until the good fence and beautiful fence were called brides.

Flashback OFF

But who would have thought, if Al always remembers those words as well as Fatty who has now transformed into a beautiful and sexy girl, Karenina.

Every year little Al would take time to vacation at his grandfather's villa in Bandung, but when he was on his elementary school graduation holiday, it turned out that Karenina and her family had moved from Bandung, and no one knew where they had moved, because Karenina's father was only a laborer. The factory was always changing rents, until when Karenina was in high school her father managed to buy a house they could live in, but in the end he had to sell the house for the sake of his mother.

And finally Karenina accepted Sofia's offer to work at her lover's nightclub, and that's where little Al found the fat figure he had been looking for all this time, at that time Al was frustrated because he saw with his own eyes Zarima's betrayal with Tama, then he spent the night at Night club owned by his best friend.

And fate brought them together again, since then Al has become a stalker who always follows Karenina wherever she goes. Maybe if he had found Karenina sooner then he could have saved Karenina's mother's life and the girl would not have to work so hard to survive and pay for her mother's treatment.
