End of the Affair Reunion
Chapter 44 The stressful verdict

This morning I had to go back to the city where I had to work. I spoke to Diana last night. And he was determined to remain in this city.

Actually I was very confused by the determination of Diana who did not want to come with me to my place now. Shouldn't he be happy because we can get together like a family? But in fact, he prefers to stay away from me and meet only once a week.

I can't force her anymore, because I don't want our relationship to get worse, so I have to give up.

Dave was deliberately dispatched early in the morning by Diana so she wouldn't know if I was back today. Really sneaky isn't my wife? I don't know how Dave would react if he found out I wasn't home by the time he got home.

It's a heavy footstep I'm walking towards this airport. Usually I feel excited because I have the support of my wife and children who deliver me at this airport. But now, I am alone and feel so empty in this heart. So much so that I would like to scream so that everyone knows that I really need the support of loved ones.

My days are running as usual, between home and office. I never met Celine because she was also busy with her work and her new cafe. And I'm still with my treatment.

I was so frustrated that I also took alternative medicine so that I could recover quickly, and maybe if I was cured, my wife would come with me to come to this city.

There is nothing wrong with me and my health. Until the doctor diagnosed me with erectile dysfunction. And I'll have to have surgery if I'm willing. I thought long about it, so I got more stressed thinking about it.

I called Diana tonight intending to give her some news, but she seemed so busy that she didn't answer my phone. I don't know what he's busy with, maybe he's busy with Laura and Dave or maybe he's busy with something else. I didn't know she was really busy or avoiding my phone.

The more I think about my life, the more frustration I feel. Until my stomach hurt again because I was busy with my mind and did not remember my eating schedule.

I took my foot out of my apartment to buy food. My car drove off at medium speed to see what I wanted to be able to fill the emptiness of my stomach.

My eyes were locked on a cafe that caught my attention. Celine's cafe, which I love the food and the atmosphere. Without me commanding, my hand has moved my wheel to turn on the cafe.

My feet lightly entered with a very happy heart. I don't know why I don't understand either. Whose feelings know, even I myself feel them not knowing the cause.

My heart is pounding. It's so weird I feel.

Why is my heart beating like this? I was okay though. Is there something wrong with my heart? Oh God... Why is my life so complicated? I said in my heart with my steps that did not stop entering Celine's cafe.

"Al!" this voice, the voice of the woman I wanted so much, but I couldn't reach it.

I turned my body to find out the truth of my hearing. I was afraid that it was all an illusion because I was too hopeful to meet him.

My smile grew when I saw the figure of the woman was really the woman I expected. Celine Amartha, the woman whose name is always in my heart.

"Cel, are you still here?" I said as I walked up to him.

"Later Al, until closing like him," he said while giving a sweet smile, a smile that can always make my heart pound and always imagined in my eyes.

My heart was pounding even more just from looking at it. And now I understand that there's nothing wrong with my heart. He only reacted because I was going to meet my heart.

I don't know why his name can't be lost in my heart. All this time, I have been trying to bring new people closer to me. That person is Diana, my wife, the mother of my children. Very close and more intimate than Celine who is just my friend? But still the name Celine cannot be erased in my heart.

"Al, Al.. Why not? You here to see me?" Celine wagged her palms in front of my face.

I was stupid to look dumb just because I saw Celine's sweet smile that I hadn't seen for a long time.

"You're Al habit. Busy, but still have to eat. Udah, you go into the usual room, let me order some food for you," Celine pushed my body into the VIP room we were in.

About ten minutes Celine entered the room I was in. By bringing something and smiling bitterly.

"Old skirt Cel? Did you order a lot of food like that to welcome me back to this cafe?" I let out my joke so I could go back to seeing her sweet smile.

See... Celine was actually smiling, even she chuckled while sitting opposite me.

"You are Al-Aja," he said with a chuckle.

I laughed and was happy to see his laughter. I had forgotten my illness and the burden of my life.

Is Celine the right medicine for me? Just by looking at it I can forget everything. If only I had thought and re-thought in my mind.

"Al.. emmm. ," Celine seemed hesitant to say something.

"What's Cel? Any issues?" I asked with anxious feelings for him.

"No, just. mmm. this is Al" he said hesitantly.

Celine gave me something she brought to me by putting it on the table.

"What is Cel?" ask me when I take that thing.

"Open Al. Read it" he said with a bitter smile.

I obey. I open it and I read the sheet. My eyes glared in shock at the writing on the invitation.

"Cel.. this invitation..," I can't go on with my words.

Celine nodded and the bitter smile returned to her lips. I'm confused about what happened. And I didn't think this would happen this fast.

"Cel, you. this invitation..," my tongue was confused to say, until what I said was not what I was going to say.

"Yes Al, that's the invitation," Celine replied by re-imposing her smile.

"You're not Cel?" I asked because I was really worried about him.

"I'm fine. You don't have to worry" he replied with a smile he still forced.

"But Cel-"

Tok..
