Early in the morning I finished packing and immediately called the nurse to come to my room. I don't want to meet Mas Adam today. The wound will bleed again if I meet and talk to him at this time.
So, I decided to leave the hospital before he came to visit me. Who knows, he will come with his mistress. I tried so hard not to say harsh words to Astri. Considering she is pregnant at the moment.
"Mom, why do you want to get out so early?" the nurse asked while checking my tension and temperature.
"I'm feeling better, Sus." I replied briefly.
"Alright, I can finish the administration first before leaving. I'll come back with the rician,"
"no need. I'll pay for it in the administration. Not to go back!"
"Alright, Mom. Come on, I'm taking you."
"Thank you, Sister."
The young nurse smiled and led my way to the administration. After I finished paying all the Hospital bills through mobile banking, I immediately left the place.
I ordered a taxi online to take me to my best friend Ayu's house. I really don't want to go home for now.
And anyway, I've already informed Ayu that it will come this morning. The distance between the Hospital and Ayu's residence is not so far away. Ten minutes was long enough to arrive, as the driver was driving the taxi at a slow speed.
"Hey... Is it good at this hour?" I greeted Ayu as she opened the door for me.
"You can nag me for three hours if I haven't showered when you come" she replied insinuatingly with a smile.
"Haha... Anyway, virgin kid kok males bath?"
"Yeeee... I'm not a bath mall. I just don't have time to take a morning shower."
"That's the reason you can."
Ayu took me inside and headed to the dining table. There were two bowls of chicken there. Of course, Ayu ordered it through gra*fo*d. Maybe he made it himself.
After finishing breakfast, Ayu and I sat back on the sofa in the living room. Then, Ayu looked at me full of question marks. Of course, I could interpret what that gaze meant.
"Beb, I need you now. Adam has betrayed. He broke my trust, and I couldn't forgive or accept him anymore" tears began to fill my eyeballs.
"What's? About Adam? Cheating mean? Husband as perfect as her? Don't joke, it's not funny!" apparently, Ayu can also be fooled by the appearance and attitude of Mas Adam during this time.
"Not cheating anymore, but already married siri." I added my sentence.
Making Ayu come back surprised, with her eyes wide open and hands closing her mouth. A class of Ayu can be fooled, especially I who do not have special skills to read situations and mimic someone's face.
"You know who Mas Adam's wife is?" ask me again, when I saw Ayu was still trying to digest my words.
Of course Ayu still felt disbelief. Mas Adam who has been famous for being very good behavior, friendly to me, always giving romantic things, never never never going home, suddenly caught cheating. I even married siri.
"Who's the same, Qil?" ask Ayu curiously.
"Astri.." I hung up my answer. So that Ayu could relish her surprised expression.
"Astri? The employee at your boutique, right?" ayu asked in disbelief and really expected this to be unreal.
I just nodded weakly, answering Ayu's question. I feel like I've exhausted all the energy I have right now. Just to think about why Adam became like this.
"And... Astri is pregnant at the moment. Perhaps, that's why lately Mas Adam has always come home in the middle of the night and reasoned overtime all sorts. As for me.." Escaping is my final defense.
I can no longer hold back these tears from falling down. Ayu quickly hugged my body tightly. I really need this right now. My place is leaning, spilling all my sadness and grievance.
Having Ayu as a friend, is something I am very grateful for in the world at this moment. If Ayu doesn't exist, I don't know what's happening to me right now. I am a very stressed and unstable person.
"That's it... There I am here. Don't cry for that bastard again. And that damn actor, do I need to step in?" Ayu offered her help.
"no need. I don't want to be rash, that woman is pregnant right now. He can make it a weapon to make us cornered." I replied steadily.
"Then, what are you going to do now?"
"I'll take care of the divorce with Mas Adam. I'm sure he won't agree. That's why I need your help so much."
"Of course, you can count on me!" Ayu hugged me again tightly.
"Thank you, for still being my best friend who always repotkam you," I said with a haru feeling.
"Hmmm... Don't think that all this is free,"
We both laughed. As it turned out, I could still laugh at the pain and disappointment I felt.
Suddenly the voice from my phone sounded. I picked it up and saw who called. It turns out that Adam.
After a moment of hesitation, I finally decided to answer her phone.
"Darling, you didn't tell me about the hospital first?" she was scared when the call just lifted me up.
"I have important business. No time to forget you." I replied ketus.
"What do you do, I can't bear my own husband. Bring food from Astri for you."
Hah, it's so easy for him to say those words. Is his heart really insensitive now? Did he deliberately want to continue incising the wound in my heart?
I'm sure Ayu heard Mas Adam's voice from the phone. Seen from Ayu's face which suddenly turned angry and told me to turn off the phone unilaterally.
"Darling... How silent anyway? Where are you now? Let's go get you?" ask Adam again.
"No need, Mom. I'll be home in the afternoon. I still have a lot of business today."
"But you're still sick. Aqila, please don't be stubborn!" Adam screamed a little while saying my name.
Things he never did to me at all. Because I was too stupid and too late to realize it all.
"Mas, you don't have to care and take care of me anymore. Take care of your mistress who is pregnant." I replied with emotion.
"Aqila..."
"It's over, Mom!" I interrupted Mas Adam's conversation.
Then I turned off my phone. My crying is back. Ayu patiently hugged and calmed me down. I'm broken, I'm hurt.
How painful is it when we try to hate the one we love? I can't explain it.
