Faithfulness Ratih And Darma
chapter 4

Darma looked at the ceiling. His mind glared far away Imagining the events of a few months ago. Asri breaks off her relationship with Darma, as Darma is always stalling for time to propose to her.

Asri has been dating Darma for nine years. But until those nine years, Asri wants Darma to prove his seriousness in their relationship. Asri wants Darma to propose to her. But apparently, Darma is still stalling for time on the grounds of waiting for his sister to get married first.

The flashback

"Mas, when are you going to propose to me?" tanya Asri stared fixedly at Darma's bead eyes.

"I don't know As. I want Mas Husni to be married. I don't want to go ahead of him." Answer Darma flat.

"But why? I told you I've been dating nine years. At least the fiancee was..." Asri Pinta.

"Yes. I'll think about it again. But for now, I can't. I still need to save for our future. For the cost of our wedding. I'm not ready yet."

"I never asked for anything from you. I'm not asking for a fancy wedding. But I just need your commitment.

We are not children anymore. We are both adults. I am also old Mas, friends like me, even already have children. So what are you waiting for?"

"Dear, I will think. If I'm ready, I'll propose to you as soon as possible." Darma tightly grasped Asri's hand.

One month later.

Darma is surprised by Asri. Asri delivers her wedding invitation .He's getting married to another man.

jedeeer....

Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight. Darma's heart felt sliced into pieces. He did not expect Asri to do this. So the loyalty of Darma all this time, there is no meaning for Asri.

"What does this all mean?"

"I'm sorry. I actually had a long relationship with him. We've been dating for a year without your knowledge.

And now I'm going to have a wedding next week without any engagement."

Darma washed his face rough. His eyes did not blink staring at Asri's wedding invitation. His heart was so sore, when Asri bluntly sinless, that this year he had an affair with another man. And now they want to get married.

"Why are you doing this? Why don't you wait for me? I'm also serious about our relationship."

Darma looked at Asri nanar. Seen from the look of his face that harbors sadness. But he could still hold back his tears. Well, he is a man after all. It is impossible to cry over the loss of her lover. Maybe because they are not yet friends. That is the mind that dwells in Darma's heart.

"I'm sorry, Mas. I didn't mean to hurt you either, but my family asked me to get married soon.

My mom is also fond of holding grandchildren. I've been waiting for you, Mas, waiting for your certainty to propose me. But you're always stalling it."

Asri grabbed both hands of Darma. He understood Darma's current condition. Darma must be in shock to accept this fact. But this is Asri's decision.

Darma hugged Asri's body. He also kissed Asri.

"Blessed are you with him. I pray that you be happy. And your family became a very good family of warohmah."

"Darma." Asri said concerned. He looked at Darma.

"I'm okay. I'll take everything. This is what is called destiny. Nothing will change a soul mate. Maybe we're not fools. But at least I've been happy enough to be the light of your heart for nine years. If you are happy, I am happy too. Doesn't love not have to have each other."

Darma hugged Asri again.

But maybe this is the last hug for them.

Asri was crying in Darma's arms. Nine years is not a short time for two people to combine love. Nine years is a long time. There must have been many memories at that time.

Asri vented her cries in Darma's arms, so that Darma's clothes were drenched by Asri's tears.

"Have not cried. I'm sure what you choose will make you happy. If you're happy, I'll feel it." Darma said while wiping Asri's tears trying to be sincere even though it hurts.

Asri smiled and nodded Darma, I know you must be hurt. Ii'm sorry. I still love you so much. But I can't have you hanging up this relationship without the commitment of marriage. I'm Darma's girl. I also need certainty. I don't want anyone to tell me I'm an old man.

"How about we go to the beach. I want to capture this moment with you, for the last time. And after that, we'll be friends. Do you want to?"

"I want to love. What the hell didn't do you." Said Darma trying to cover up his wound. He will try to act as if nothing has happened.

Asri smiled.

I know your heart must be very painful to accept this reality. I've known you inside. Although you try to hide your wounds, but the look in your eyes is unable to lie. I'm sorry mas.

Flashback off

Darma took a deep breath. He caught the hape beside him.

"What's my little girl doing?" muttered Darma while smiling looking at the contact number Ratih.

That's how it is every night. Darma and Ratih always spend their nights sharing their feelings.

At first Darma just want to entertain himself, so as not to think too much about Asri.

That's why he's not trying to chat. But for a long time it became a habit. Like he was an opium to her. Same with Ratih.

One night alone is not content, surely he feels lost.

"Good sleep my girl. Thank you for making my heart entertained. Because of your presence, I can already slightly forget Asri." Darma Gumam.

On the other side

"Good night my prince. You have always been faithful to accompany me every night. So that I am no longer lonely. Good night, good dreams."

ratih Gumam.
