Azalea thought she would leave early in the morning to meet Mona. Apparently, Reynand had his own plan. The man had an important meeting this morning at the office. Although the school is off, but Reynand has a myriad of activities that can not be left alone. Should Azalea cancel her intention of meeting Mona?
After finishing his breakfast, Reynand immediately said goodbye. He carried the briefcase that had been placed on the chair. His steps were wide, until Azalea gave up the chase. The girl ran small so she could go hand in hand.
"Later to pick me up after lunch break huh," Reynand said as he reached out for the salim.
Azalea kissed the back of her husband's hand with reverence. When performing the ritual, like someone rustling to deliver warmth throughout his body then empties into the heart. And when Reynand scooped his head, he landed a kiss on his forehead. His body trembled, his knees together until it felt like jelly. The gentle treatment of the man was able to immobilize his joints even down to his brain. Until, he forgot the sentence he wanted to say.
Reynand's body had disappeared inside the elevator, while Azalea was still standing glued staring at the silent passageway. At this hour, the atmosphere around is quite quiet. Moreover, there is no reprimand let alone know the owner of the other unit.
Azalea let out a long sigh, then walked into her unit. Suddenly a feeling of desolation whipped. This was her first time on vacation alone. Usually, although not going anywhere, the house is never empty. When both parents left, or the older brother left, there was a housekeeper left. But here she was alone with her husband. When Reynand left, Azalea was alone.
Azalea opened the balcony door, immediately the warm morning sun hit her face. Azalea's eyes were squeaking from the glare of the bright light. He also chose to sit on a chair, enjoying the natural scenery that can be felt. Unconsciously, his eyes were closed. The boring morning changed a dream that was a pity to miss.
Azalea's body wriggled until she fell from the chair. His knee hit the floor, causing him to complain of pain. Pain and pain become one.
Azalea sat on the floor. He looked at his knee and found a bruise there. The girl blew while stroking the sick part. He also intended to compress the sick part with ice cubes. However, as he began to stand up, the pain immediately struck, making him sit back in a chair while grimacing in pain.
Azalea's face flushed red, then a clear circle flowed down her cheeks. The girl could not endure the pain in her body. His physical endurance is questionable. Sick a little, he'll cry.
While blowing at his knees, Azalea's tears just kept flowing. Until a while, he let his crying subside on his own so that his feelings calm down. After that, he again tried to walk in a limp. However, the goal is no longer to take ice cubes to compress but to go to the room to lie down.
Not until Azalea to his room, the power possessed as if it had been drained out. He also lies on the couch in front of the television. Azalea turned on the big screen so that her own feelings could be expelled. At least, the sound of the broadcast on the screen displayed can enliven the state of his quiet apartment unit.
In the end, Azalea spent time watching television. He was looking for a show he liked. Action movies are a choice. Until, lunch time arrived.
Azalea looked at the clock on the wall, it was time Reynand picked her up. He walked slowly to the room to change clothes. Ignoring the pain in the knee that now seemed to swell, Azalea returned to the middle room. She turned off the big screen in front of her and checked her phone if there was a message from her husband. Niente. Reynand did not send a single message for him.
Azalea waited patiently for Reynand's arrival. 'Maybe still be on the road, ' he thought. He stared at the screen of the phone that was still dark, there were no notifications or calls there. So, he took the initiative to send a message first, asking for Reynand's whereabouts now.
'Where are you?'
Azalea did not have time to click the send button, because the message she typed was deleted.
Azalea shook her head slowly, then retyped with another question.
'Have you eaten yet?'
Delete again.
'I'm ready. We're leaving, right?'
Delete again.
Azalea biting lips. It felt like all the messages he typed were going awry.
This time, due to the growing nervousness. Azalea had not finished typing her sentence when her thumb accidentally pressed the send icon on the screen. He was shocked, until the flat object fell into his lap.
"Duh, how is this?"
Azalea was about to delete the message sent when Reynand's name shimmered on her phone screen. The man made a call. Not because the girl deliberately shifted the green icon but because the world around her seemed to stop for a moment.
"Azeal." Reynand's voice sounded soft in silence. I don't know where that guy is.
Azalea thought Reynand was on his way home to pick her up.
"Yes .. yes, Reynand. I-i-"
"Sorri yes, here I have a sudden business. It is important and cannot be delayed. I can't pick you up now ...."
'I'm ready.' Azalea continued her sentence in silence.
"You're okay, aren't you, if we delay going to Mona's place?" reynand asked for an answer.
"Yes. Okay. You finish your job first." Azalea replied in a soft voice. He chuckled to cover up the disappointment in his heart.
"Yes already. I'll continue the meeting."
Then the call was cut off. No questions from Reynand to Azalea.
Has Azalea had lunch?
Was Azalea prepared to wait for him?
Or, did something happen today?
Azalea clasped the phone tightly in hand. The pain in the knee that a moment ago can be held, it now feels many times the pain. Until, made Azalea cry as she pleased.
For the first time Azalea wished for someone. And that hope is so easily dispelled.
For the first time Azalea believed in a man. And that trust is so easily broken.
In that silence, Azalea continued to cry. Apparently, the pain in his heart was much more painful than the injury to his knee.
Azalea wiped her tears dry, dear the clear circle was flowing again. Then, he walked on one leg, jumping up and down to his room. One thing Azalea wanted to do; she wanted to drown herself in a blanket, then go to another realm. Perhaps, in the dreamland he was walking around with a happy feeling. It's okay to be alone. The girl did not need anyone to accompany her journey.
What Azalea doesn't know is that Reynand is back in contact. The man remembered if he had not asked if Azalea had eaten or not? He wants to send me a lunch menu. However, until several times the call did not get an answer.
Reynand ordered food. However, the food had to go back to his office, because the owner of the apartment did not open the door.
