The sound of birds chirping was heard as Fay walked out of his room. He stood on the edge of the balcony guardrail, staring at the orange silhouette that stretched wide on the eastern horizon. Sometimes he closed his eyes to breathe the morning air. In fact, even the sun has not revealed its perfect form.
"I have to be ready" Fay murmured inwardly.
He went back into the room to prepare himself before going to church. Before entering the bathroom, Fay caught a glimpse of a figure still hiding behind a thick blanket. That person is none other than Arvin. Last night the handsome man came home at one in the morning drunk.
Thirty minutes, the time it takes Fay to look neat with a pair of jeans combined with a navy blouse. Her hair was deliberately stroked to make her look more graceful. The beautiful woman was ready to go to church.
"Thank you!" Fay patted Arvin's arm several times, but there was no response. Once again Fay tried to wake her husband so that he would not be late for regular worship in the Church.
Fay gasped as his hand was thrown by Arvin. He watched the man who was changing his position. Really, Fay was surprised after seeing what Arvin had just done.
"Don't bother me! If you want to go to church, go! Ask for a driver!" arvin said without opening his eyelids. His voice sounded out loud in Fay's sense of hearing.
Without saying much, Fay left the room immediately. The harsh words thrown by Arvin incised a wound in his heart. Fay did not think, why her husband changed his attitude. In fact, even though it was under the influence of alcohol, not a single bit Arvin treated it harshly.
"Young lady, didn't you have breakfast first?" ask an ART who passed Fay in the living room.
"Sorry, Bi, I'm in a hurry," Fay said in a voice that sounded very soft. His appetite suddenly disappeared due to the incident in the room.
Tears rolled down his cheeks as Fay was on his way to church. Although disappointed with Arvin, she still obeyed the orders of her husband. Fay left with a private driver from the Bramasta family.
After traveling for several tens of minutes, Fay arrived at one of the Catholic churches he used to visit with Linda. Fay soon entered the Church to attend regular worship.
For nearly two hours, Fay attended every activity in the church. Now, it's time for Fay to return to his in-laws' house. But after getting into the car, Fay asked the driver to go somewhere. The car drove in the opposite direction to the Bramasta residence.
"Young Miss, is this the house that Madam means?"
The question posed by the driver managed to disperse all Fay daydreams. He turned his gaze to the right of the street to observe a two-story house. Long enough Fay stared at the house of memories with his late parents, until tears could no longer be dammed.
"Fay, miss you guys," Fay murmured inwardly. He wiped the tear from his cheek before asking the driver to continue his journey.

The ruler of the rays slowly moved towards the resting place. The bright blue color slowly faded away changing to the dark color. Seconds and seconds continued to pass until finally arrived at dinner time.
The silence was felt in the dining room. The couple was just silent while enjoying the dishes served at the dinner table. Actually, Fay wondered what had happened to her husband. Since returning home from Clubbing, Arvin's attitude has suddenly changed. It became cold like a lump of snow until this moment.
"Do you want anything?" ask Fay after seeing Arvin finish his dinner.
"No!" answer Arvin briefly. Without saying goodbye to his wife, Arvin just passed by.
Fay grew even more astonished after hearing Arvin's reply. Many times Fay tried to guess what his mistake was to make Arvin's attitude change drastically. Long enough the beautiful woman sat in the dining room alone, contemplating everything she might have done by accident.
"Ah stop! Maybe he's got a problem with his friend." Fay tried to think positively.
After leaving the dining room, Fay went straight to his room. Fay is stunned to not find Arvin in the room. She thought maybe her husband was in the workspace of Mr. Bram which is now occupied by Arvin.
The feeling of loneliness was again felt by Fay when he was in the room. In fact, the Hollywood film that is adorning the television screen can not relieve the negative feelings lodged in the head. Fay's mind could not be compromised to not think negatively about the husband's attitude.
Seconds by second continued to pass tirelessly. Twelve o'clock at night, Arvin went into his room. He saw Fay sleeping in his place. The plain face without make-up continued to be stared at by Arvin after he sat on the bed.
For some reason, Arvin seems to be very injured when he is close to Fay. In his current view, Fay was like a sharp, heart-wrenching knife. Arvin felt lied to his own wife.
"I don't really want to believe it! But there's real evidence that shows who you are!" arvin murmured in the heart.
A heavy sigh sounded there. Arvin slid his body beside Fay. But this time, the handsome man slept his back to Fay. The distance is between the two despite sleeping in the same blanket.
Sometimes incitement makes us dark in the eyes, let alone the incitement is flavored with salt and flavoring. So, whoever it is, must feel if the incitement is real.
