End of the Affair Reunion

End of the Affair Reunion
Chapter 3. Mistakes


Today is the day that my status changed from single to married. A day highly anticipated by singles.


My feelings? I don't know, I don't know myself. Because honestly beautiful face and sweet smile Celine still dominates my heart and mind.


I haven't heard from Celine in a few days. Somehow I don't know. I wanted to call him to hear his voice. But that's all I can't do because I'm just going to add to his sadness.


The marriage book I showed Diana during the photo session after we had done the marriage contract was proof that I now have a wife. And that means I have to take full responsibility as a husband.


I assure my heart that this is my path, the path I choose and must walk. The aura of happiness from both of our families made me realize that I should not be selfish, the same as that spoken by Celine at the time we last met.


Remembering that, I miss him. Ah... Celine I. I miss youuuu.. I really want to shout my longing for the world, especially her, so that my longing goes to her ears.


The party was over, it was a very festive party prepared by our parents. I really didn't think I had a friend to share my bed with.


My nights are no longer dark, and my days are a little different. Wife, a word I never expected I would mention to Diana that I no longer knew how I felt about her.


No one knew that every time Diana and I were knitting love, the face I always saw was my Celine face. Can I claim it as my Celine? After all he was mine even in my delusion, because his face and smile never faded from my heart and mind. Aaah.


But now, I must completely forget about Celine in my life, because Diana was pregnant with our child after we got married one month ago.


I enjoyed my role as a husband who bothered his wife with various requests for cravings. During her pregnancy, that, Dinda was so spoiled that I was supposed to be assigned to be in another city for a year with a heavy heart I refused on the grounds of a pregnant wife and could not be left behind.


It was fortunate that the company could tolerate it, but only this time, for the next time it seemed like I could not dodge.


The day of my happiness and Diana has arrived. Our son was born into this world. He is so funny and I love him so much. I felt so perfect in my world with our son.


Celine's shadow gradually faded away if I was with Dave, my son. However, if I'm not with Dave, I think back to my first love named Celine.


Many say that Dave has a face similar to mine. I'm proud of him anyway. He's my successor, and he inherited my family's genes.


Now I live my days as usual. Departing and coming home from work according to working hours and never playing anywhere, because at home there are already wives and children waiting for me. But there are times when I still miss Celine. Often I see the story in his social media and see his jokes with other friends in group chat. Aaah.


I had a wedding with Diana. But Celine's shadow is still often found. Now according to the agreement I was transferred back to the city of Surabaya.


My friends in Malang found out that I was in Surabaya. They had a meeting, yes arguably a reunion for our classmates to gather on the weekend.


I came with pleasure mixed with fear. It's good to be back with my old friends, especially Celine who I miss so much. And afraid that Celine won't meet me.


However, I have no reason not to come see my friends. I dare to accept whatever Celine's reaction is to me.


I've been here an hour. Gathering with my friends, joking and reminiscing about our old school days.


I waited for Celine to come but never came. I dare to ask about Celine to my friends.


Jem!


My heart was like it was pierced by a very sharp dagger. They said that Celine would get married the day after tomorrow, so she could not come to this event.


****!


Who's the lucky guy? My mind is screwed, I don't want Celine to belong to anyone else. Tell me I'm crazy, I'm not sane or unreasonable, whatever. She's my Celine, she's my woman, she's mine.


I grabbed my hair violently, and I screamed with all my might, but I could only do it in my heart until my heart felt tight and sick.


If only there was a place I could use to shout, I would surely shout out loud my dying heart.


I'm really not excited and I'm so fucked up. The Guyonan my friends threw did not go into my ears. Celine's shadow wearing a wedding dress made my heart ache.


Until we got home, Celine didn't come. I really wanted to meet him even if only for the last time.


"Alex, I'm hanging out with you. I want to go to my parents' house in Surabaya" said one of my friends named Reni Wijaya.


"Well aren't your parents here?" my many.


"It's been moving since I went to college. I live here by myself" he replied as he got into my car.


"You invited Celine?" I asked myself to speak up about Celine.


"Yes the day after, he came when I got married, too" he replied.


"Are you married?" my many.


"Udah, but divorced too. My two children are with my parents in Surabaya" he replied.


"Divorce? Wh why? Eh sorry if I start kepo," I said accompanied by a cry of my chorus.


"Biasalah household problems must exist. I was a widow for two years" she replied.


"Sorry yes, I didn't mean to dig up your old wounds" I apologized to him.


"It's okay. Relax" he replied with a laugh.


The rain in Surabaya is getting heavier. Reni's parents' house is still a long way from my apartment.


Reni asked that she be taken to my apartment just because she seemed to be not feeling well, she wanted to drink the warm tea I made in my apartment because she wanted to know where I live in Surabaya.


I can't refuse her request because Reni is forcing me so much. Arriving at my apartment, I made him a cup of warm tea.


But beyond my expectations, Reni asked me to do a scraping on her back because she was catching a cold.


I swear, I was so shocked that a woman could ask a man for that. Even though we are friends, shouldn't we also keep boundaries?


I refused because I felt I still had my pride as a good man. But for a long time the wall that I built had collapsed, shattered into pieces.


I couldn't resist my desire, Reni was so good at playing me. He made me forget everything. His touch and treatment made the room in my apartment hot even though it was raining heavily outside.


I am so overwhelmed by everything he does. And it gets my man's side challenged. So that I was also able to make it float and we ended up falling together in our last achievement.


I never thought I would do this with Reni, my Junior High friend who never entered my heart.
