GENK DUDA ACUTE
42. Is There A Path You've Found

“This ... which way?” ask Toni.

“Get out of here, we go left. Kebon Jeruk direction,” replied Wulan.

“Home or—”

“Apartment,” cut Wulan. “Apartment does not require me to meet with a neighbor. All doors are always closed. I don't have to talk,” explained Wulan.

“Apartment,” muttered Toni. “Buy again?” ask Toni. He was working on his ex-wife one by one.

“No,” replied Wulan. He looked at the street in front of him.

“Rey's indications are that?”

“I contracted by myself. Not from him,” replied Wulan slowly.

“Oh,” muttered Toni. He was grateful that Wulan contracted the apartment himself. Not from Rey. In the dim light in the car, Toni glanced at Wulan who was hugging her tiny bag over her lap.

Why does Wulan feel so far away, he thought.

“Lan ...,” call Toni, look at Wulan at a glance.

“Hmm?” Wulan turned her head, looking at Toni's look from the side.

“You love Rey, yes?” ask Toni, so soft.

Wulan turned back, staring at the streets. “I don't know,” replied Wulan. “I don't think about love anymore. The last time I believed in love and getting married, the results didn't work out for me. So ... I think now, married to a capital of love is not enough.” Wulan was not around to look at her ex-husband when she said that.

“Kalo so ... still love me?” ask Toni. He grabbed Wulan's hand and held it.

“I don't think you deserve that. You have a girlfriend, Ton ..” Wulan pulled her hand back.

“Ha? A boyfriend? If I had a boyfriend, there's no way I'd be there alone.”

“Maaf—maaf. The ex-girlfriend means. You asked me to still love you, but you've also started a new relationship. That's not fair to both of us. I don't want us to hurt each other anymore,” Wulan said. “We are also not saints who can always keep the heart,” added Wulan.

Wulan then laughed softly. “I'm used to my own problems. Whoever the boy who deket same I—”

“Not necessarily understand and interfere in all your affairs, right?” ask Toni. He again grabbed Wulan's hand and held it. “Same, Lan. Same. I do that too. Well, you said, we are not holy men who can take care of the heart. Four years is not a moment. Maybe—maybe it could aja old wound it has not healed.”

Wulan closed her mouth. This time he let his hand sit on Toni's thigh. Toni's hands were so warm while gently massaging her palms. And ... apparently, his chest was still pounding when Toni did that habit.

Suddenly Wulan pointed at something by the side of the road. “Eh, the ... this street that—” Wulan looked at Toni.

“Yes, this is the road that I usually pass every pick you up from work first,” replied Toni.

“But usually there is a common street vendor—”

“Moving. Fried rice traders who trade mothers, right? Now it's moved, not there anymore.” Toni smiled at the enthusiastic look of Wulan.

“Where to move?” ask Wulan.

“Eat there? The clock is closed. Tomorrow if you want to eat there, I pick you up.” Toni tightened her hand.

Wulan was silent again. Toni just said the word tomorrow. “Neg. Not tomorrow, though. I just knew, the mother of fried rice was not trading there. I have never gone this way,” said Wulan.

“Kalo ... Beer Garden? Still there?” ask Toni.

Wulan. “I can't be there,” says Wulan.

“Iya, yes .. impossible. You definitely don't want to squirm me.” Toni laughs.

“That's not it either. I'm just busy ...” Wulan looked out the window.

“Soal last noon .. don't want a story?” tanya Toni, still massaging Wulan's hands that were above her thighs.

“What news is more? I was tired ..” Mumbled Wulan.

“Eh, which apartment is this? Which tower?” ask Toni.

“Log in from door three only, straight until mentok.” Wulan pointed at the entrance in front.

“Kok moved him here? Not far from mom's house?” ask Toni. From his kayak office is also far ..”.

In Wulan's hand is already clutched an access card that will be used to enter the door to the elevator.

“Fine elevator use access too?” ask Toni.

“Iya, to the pool also use access.”

“Aman, yes ...,” muttered Toni. “But usually access is not just one, right?” ask Toni. He took Wulan's car through the lobby to an empty parking lot.

“Rey doesn't have access to my room. If you really want the name,” said Wulan. He looked at Toni. The car had stopped at the parking lot and Toni had just pulled a hand break.

“You just had a fuss about him this afternoon. He reported me in the afternoon. And now, I don't have any more news about him. You knew? She's been in touch with you?” Toni again grabbed Wulan's hand.

“We're in a fuss. Rey used to say things, and then apologized the next day. This time too, after the rampage in the office, he immediately left. I can't stop him even if I know he's going to find you. I was confused ...,” muttered Wulan.

“I can hug you, Lan?” toni asked, cupping Wulan's tiny right hand with both palms.

Wulan just silently lowered her head, looking at her warm hand.

Toni let go of Wulan's hand and pulled the woman's body into her arms.

“Lepasin Rey, The …. Let's try again. We start again from the beginning. Give me time to ngasi Mami's understanding. Mami's situation is not like it just now. Mami—severe depression. I'm actually scared. Afraid you will feel depressed. But to let you go, especially with Rey's kayak, I won't be able to.” Toni tightened her embrace. Stroking the back side of Wulan's head and pecking at the top of his ex-wife's head.

“I don't know. I can't answer. For now, I'm still tied to Rey.”

“We finish,” Toni said.

“It won't be that easy. Especially her emotions again. I'm scared, Ton …. I'm afraid he's a grudge against you,” Wulan said.

Toni let go of his embrace. “Don't meet him first in the meantime. As much as possible avoid.”

“I do a lot of work, it's impossible. That's hard, Ton ... ck!” Wulan clucked in frustration. “I'm afraid he's wrathful,” added Wulan.

“If you want to be frank about everything. Maybe it will be easier,” said Toni.

Wulan was silent. Saying everything to Toni means asking for help. He doesn't want to. Wulan felt this was his personal matter. He has to clean it up himself. He looked up at Toni.

“You are now different,” said Wulan. “More adults.”

Toni smiled thinly. Tuck Wulan's hair behind her ear.

“My darling is still the same. Still just as beautiful ...” Toni kisses his ex-wife's lips. His left hand carried Wulan's body into his arms. His right hand stroked the woman's cheek gently.

Wulan closed her eyes. His body and soul were equally tired. Toni is still as gentle as ever. An only child who could love him like a baby. Toni was romantic and very naive once.

Slowly Wulan's hands touched both sides of her ex-husband's face. A memory that is always beautiful every time it goes into wishful thinking. Toni's lips are always warm. He felt Toni's hand caress his face. Gently rubbed his chin and massaged his ears.

The kiss was soft and long. Wulan still closed her eyes as Toni let go of their kiss.

“Udah malem,” says Toni. He rubbed Wulan's lips with his thumb.

“Udah is almost the middle of the mallem,” said Wulan.

“Iya. Almost the middle of the mallem,” welcome Toni.

Then he felt his phone shake.

“Shortly,” says Toni. Keep their bodies away and go back into their pockets. When he saw the name of the sender of the message, Toni unconsciously snorted.

‘Return. Don't nginep lo. Don't make it runnier. Your problem is not yet resolved. Beresin Mami lo first if you want more delicious. Many taxis there, drivers lo there, security guards there, money lo there, reasons lo nginep that do not exist.’

From Dean. It's almost midnight but Dean's still messing with him. Toni typed in her reply.

‘Bacot lo clock this is still nosy. I ama Wulan both single.’

Toni sent. A few minutes later, he got his reply.

‘Mother adoption lo worry. I had to calm her worries at midnight. That's why you have to go home. If everything is done, I guarantee it will be better.'
