(Not) Dream Marriage

(Not) Dream Marriage
Decision Night


The day began late at night, the month after from his office. Tonight he drove his car to the cafe and bar, where he finally came to when he began to feel the need for calm.


Should the Moon draw closer to God, if you want to find peace? This even maen to cafe and bar 😜.


He's headed to the bar, his favorite spot.


"Hi, Roy. The usual." Pinta Moon.


"Sip. Alone?" Asked Roy, the bartender who already knew the Moon because of the frequent way the girl went to this place. This is indeed a Moon subscription bar since the time is still abege. And Roy, was his upperclassman at school.


"Ho oh." Answer the Moon in a doldrums.


Lately, the Moon often stopped by this place after returning home from work. Sometimes with friends, sometimes alone. But no longer with Mario, nor with the Sky.


The moon drowned in its solitude.


Especially when he read from social media about the closeness of Mario and Cleo back. And hearing for yourself from the news of gossip aired on a gossip show on television, that socialite Cleo CLBK returned with her first fiance, Mario.


"Haharrrgggh....!!" The moon felt so bad.


"It turns out Mr. Aji's prediction was wrong! Two of them are not my true partner. But he was not mistaken, but myself. I haven't opened my eyes all this time. That all this time, it turns out I have loved someone close to my daily life. And now, he has drifted away, with others. What can I try?" The moon stared at the glass in front of him.


"Sttts.... Still a broken heart?" Roy asked, looking at the dreamy moon with a lethargic face.


The moon did mention briefly about his mood to Roy. Because sometimes the bartender can be a fun confiding friend, and can be entertaining.


The moon answered Roy's question.


"Still, Lead." Sahut Moon.


"Wuih, it's like a collision, Non."


"Hehe... Grumbags. One was hit by an old love. Directly hit by a new love. Hmmm not new, but only recently. It's all over." The Moon on Roy.


"Ouch..!" Knock Roy while clenching his right hand and attach it to his left chest. Grieving emblem.


"That's why bat was invented. We take heartbroken people so they don't get left on the road before the psyche picks up the cost of their suffering." Roy said, chuckling.


The moon laughed and gave a thumbs up.


However, to him, he was currently not stranded on the road. Except at home. Because his heart was abandoned and miserable when he was at home, when Heaven looked indifferent to him late this, when in him sprouted the seed of that feeling of love.


Moon enjoyed her drink, so she felt tired and wanted to go home.


Days changed, Sundays changed, not felt four weeks more, the Moon officially broke up with Mario. And the news about Mario and Cleo is getting louder.


The moon sometimes spends time overtime at the office or just stopping by the bar.


When I returned home, it felt lonely. The sky was already in his room, I don't know what he was doing there.


They are one house, but far apart. The moon felt the sky was moving away from her. And that feeling disturbs the Moon.


Love has arrived


Love grows in togetherness


- Month -

The sky stared at the wall of his room, then turned to the photo that was now in his hand.


Sky's memory returned again like a flashback a few months back, when he omitted the decision to ask Moon to accept himself living in this house.


Then he decided not to tell the Shaharani about it. Then misunderstanding between himself and Shaharani, which resulted in him crossing the boundary with the Moon.


However, Maura's words the other day always ring in the ears of Heaven.


"The moon was under the influence of alcohol, but she realized who she was sleeping with. If it's uncomfortable, the Moon won't want you!"


The sky remembered when he invited the Moon to play skateboarding with his students. Feelings that have never been felt when together with the Shaharani.


The sky cannot compare the Moon with the Shaharani. However, the longer it took, the stronger the sense. Moreover, sometimes it feels like Sky knocked on the door of the Moon room and asked for his rights as a husband. Uhh... Nevermind!


The sky took a deep breath. Then he opened his room and lit a cigarette to clear his mind.


At the hospital, when he found out the Moon was worried about him and faithfully waited. Even sacrificing his vacation with Mario just to wait for him.


The longer, his feelings for the Moon grew stronger. Especially when he heard Mario had cut his ties with the Moon. Then accidentally saw the news infotainment about Mario who is currently in touch with Cleo a socialite.


The sky sees the end of this, the Moon also often goes home at night. He was sure the Moon was heartbroken. The sky wanted to approach him, yet there was something that had yet to be resolved.

Tonight, Sky deliberately picked up Syaharani at his workplace. Then we headed to a cafe.


They sit facing. Then order food and drinks as usual.


"Tumben, pick it up?"


"Yes." Yeah."


The smiling sky looked at Shaharani.


"Mas, aren't you busy anymore?"


"It just so happens that today's schedule is empty."


Syaharani.


Then the waiter came to take their order.


The sky did not talk much that night, he deliberately allowed the Shaharani to enjoy his food first before he said the purpose and purpose of inviting the girl to dinner together.


They enjoyed the food as usual.


Shaharani several times glanced towards the sky that was not as usual, telling a lot of stories when they were eating together like that.


He began to feel that something was covered and stored by the Sky back then.


"What's up, Mom?" Ask Syaharani, while feeding a spoon to his mouth.


The sky gulped down the mineral water, for a moment, and sighed.


"Ran, sorry." Speak the Sky.


"Sorry for what?"


"For everything I've done to you."


"I've forgiven you, Mom. And I'm happy with the one we're living with right now."


"But what we're doing right now is wrong, Ran. I was married and tied to another woman. Still in touch with you, though. I don't want to be a jerk. I don't want to hurt anyone." Speak the Stifled Sky.


Shaharani fell silent and looked towards the sky.


"What's going on with you guys, Mom?" Shaharani stared intently at the sky.


"I. I can't part with the Moon, Ran. I can't live with two women right now. I know, I was wrong and I don't want what we're doing to get too long and too far. I want us to end this."


Shaharani stopped eating, put down her spoon, and stared intently at the sky.


"From the beginning I also thought that way, Mom. However, it was that woman who convinced me to be able to take you back. But, in fact, it turns out that you have been doing too far, Mas!" Tukas Shaharani's.


"The moon has nothing to do with this, Ran. I was wrong. I can't live any more of this. You know, I've been officially married to the Moon. Then, I also had a relationship with you. I can't live a life like this anymore. I have to choose, Ran."


"Choose? Why did he come to me and tell all your lies all along? Why is he asking me to rethink our relationship, Mas? Why, then you choose him? Why?" Syaharani asked half-screaming holding back her emotions.


Sky silent. He knew he had made a mistake all along. He lied to the girl in front of him. This time he wanted to tell the truth, even though it would hurt his feelings.


"I love her, Ran. Sorry."


Shaharani was silent for a moment and looked at the sky sharply.


THE PLAQUE!


A slap landed on Sky's cheek, and Shaharani stood up.


"You are such a jerk! And don't ever look for me again!" Said the girl still with a sharp gaze, then passed leaving the Sky.


"Rani, Ran. Ii'm sorry. I'll take you home." Call the Sky while chasing the girl.


Shaharani, pull out the hand of Heaven that touched his body.


"I'll just go home by myself! Don't you ever bother me again!" Saying shaharani coldly.


The sky fell silent, letting the Shaharani pass from before him. There was a sense of sadness felt at that moment, he knew that he had hurt the girl again. Heaven is sure, one day, the Shaharani will definitely rediscover his happiness, and time can heal his wounds.


On the other side in his heart was also tucked there was a sense of relief. Relief has solved one problem in order to solve one more thing he has to do. That is, expressing his feelings for the Moon.
