Broken Girls & Tajir Guys
One More Chance

Geck.. Geck.. Geck..

There was a knock on the door at Mama Priska's house.

"A little while" said my mother.

Chequek...

"Well," said Danindra, kissing her hand.

"Danindra, come in son. Atrees is in the room."

"Yes mah. But if Danindra can figure out what's going on, mah?" Danindra started to worry. Fear of the bad reality that he must accept due to his actions.

"Entah Ndra's. Atrees didn't want to say the same to mom. Whatever Atrees' decision, I hope you can accept Ndra."

"What does mama mean? Please explain to me mah."

"Already Ndra, don't push mama continue. Now you better get to the room. Atrees from earlier had asked for your arrival with mama."

"Okay, Danindra met Atrees first."

"Yes Ndra" replied Mama.

One by one the stairs began to climb Danindra. It felt like this step was so heavy, not as light as it used to be when he was still with Atrees.

"Oh my God, I beg you once again. Love me one more time the chance to fix everything" Danindra said.

His hands were about to knock, but his heart was still not ready. Danindra again lowered her hand and was about to turn around from Atrees' room.

Chequek..

The door to the room is open. Atrees was already standing in front of the door of his room. Danindra's steps stopped again, and he immediately turned his body back.

"Atrees" said Danindra.

"Hmmm, since when are you standing here? Why not knock on the door? Wanna go home?" ask cynical Atrees.

"No dear. I'm just still not ready with everything I'm gonna hear from your mouth right now."

"Not ready? What reason? Isn't everything that happens because of the lies you hide from behind me until we have to.."

Danindra could not hear the words Atrees was about to say. Honestly, his heart was also still sick from the loss of their flesh blood. Danindra immediately covered Atrees' mouth with her hand, stopping the speech that would make her heart hurt again.

"Trees sorryin me. Until when do you want to punish me like this. I know I'm wrong, but please Trees give me a chance. I feel guilty and sorry for the loss of our son. Don't make me feel sorry and guilty for losing you. I beg Trees, love me a chance once more," Danindra hugged his wife's body so tightly, deliberately unwilling to let go even though Atrees tried to continue resisting.

"Remove Ndra, get off."

"No, I won't let you go" Danindra firmly rejected Atrees' request. His mind was already unable if it had to release Atrees forever.

"You won't take me home. If you hold me still, I'd better sleep at your house again and undo my intention to go home to you," Atrees said, making Danindra stretch her arms slightly.

Slowly Atrees' body detached from the eight Danindra. Danindra's eyes still didn't blink. Did he hear wrong? I don't know. But it seems like a dream.

"Ndra, what's diem? Wanna go home?" ask Atrees.

He held both shoulders Atrees, making sure his ears were not misheard. "Wait, baby wait. I'm not wrong? What did you just say?"

For the first time, Atrees smiled at Danindra after almost a month they were not related let alone face to face.

"Yes, I'll give you one more chance. And I hope do not waste what I have given you," said Atrees.

"So you mean, baby? You're sorry for me? You want to go home to us?"

So happy, Danindra carried Atrees' body, took him spinning round and after that showered his face with so many kisses.

Cup..Cup..Cup

"Thank you dear. I promise I won't do anything that will hurt you again. And I promise, this is the last time I'm lying to you. From this moment on, everything I'll tell you."

"I keep your promise Ndra. But maybe for some time to come, give me some alone time. The wound still has Ndra and it's not that easy I can act like you used to. I beg you to understand yes," Atrees again let go of Danindra's hand with a slight turn of his face.

"Yes, I know, baby. And I will keep trying to heal your wounded heart again" Danindra replied.

From behind the wall, Mama Priska was deeply moved by her daughter's decision. He did not expect, if the decision that Atrees took was different from his guess.

"Mama's proud of you Trees. You are more mature than your mom. Mama thinks you're going to part with Danindra, but you're more receptive to all. Mama prayed, may this be the toughest problem in your household ark" mama murmured in her heart.

After being satisfied to let go of longing, Danindra looked back into his wife's eyes. Although he had received an apology, it could not be denied there was still a sense of annoyance that emanated from the look of Atrees' eyes.

"Darling, have you eaten?" Danindra base stale, breaking the silence that occurred between them.

"Udah. We're going home now?" asked Atrees in a tone that was still a little cynical.

"Tomorrow, it's night. Can I sleep here?"

"Hmmm, whatever. But I still can't sleep with you."

"Yes not papa. I slept in a cena room or a guest room, too. You take a break, I want to call mom at home to let them know about this happy news."

"Yes, if I go into the room first" said Atrees.

Just turning back, Danindra hugged her body from behind.

"Yank, don't be angry for long. For almost a month I was like a man who had no passion for life. You are half my heart yank, if you are not there I will be fragile," Danindra cried on his wife's shoulder, resting her head on her shoulder. Trying to express what he feels.

Degs..

There were no tears Atrees fell. Although her heart ached, her disappointment was deep, but she also could not bear to see the state of her husband.

The body is getting thinner, the hair is starting to be long. Showing Danindra like a man who can't take care of himself.

Slowly Atrees put his hand on Danindra's hand which was coiled in his stomach. Her eyes were closed, it was like she wanted to embrace her husband's body now. But the shadow of Danindra's fault is still stored in his memory.

"Ndra, don't believe me. I've forgiven you, I'm just asking for time" Atrees said.

"Yes dear. I just want to hug you for a moment. I haven't felt this kind of warmth in a long time" Danindra said.

Atrees allowed her husband to keep hugging her. Occasionally Danindra also bleated his wife's hair, feeling the scent of hair that he used to feel every day.

A few minutes passed, and Danindra began to release her arms back.

"Good night my wife, may you have a good dream" a closing sentence Danindra said before he left Atrees in the room.

"Yes Ndra, good night. May you also have a good dream" Atrees replied, kissing Danindra's right cheek, then rushed into the room and closed the door.

Clamps..

The door was locked, and Danindra was still stuck in the same place.

Atrees' treatment just now, still made him in disbelief. That sadness turned into happiness. Danindra holds the cheek that just got a kiss from the wife.

"Thank You Atress. I'll prove it to you, if I'm gonna change for the better. We've already lost one child, but I'll try to give you a few more after this" a slight arch in the lips unraveled from Danindra's lips as he walked towards the guest room.

His heart that was originally riled up now felt relieved. His wait and patience for Atrees' apology has paid off. It's time to prove that he will change for the better than before.
