Heart Darkness
Chapter 25 Can You Hold Me?


"Young Master ...."


"What's Aunt Mai doing?"


Elgio was shocked when Aunt Maribel greeted him at the door of the study. Aunt Mai's restless body aura frowned Elgio, definitely an important affair. He didn't want to tell Aunt Maribel to leave. Elgio felt very tired today. He had to work harder, studying files to prevent his mulberry jam export business from Lucky Luciano's interference. Even though, there was no real action or maybe it did not seem like a significant attack, Elgio did not want to take the risk. Better to have an umbrella before it rains. Elgio unintentionally yawned tired.


"I'd like to speak to you, Sir. It's about Miss Marya."


Elgio's mouth suddenly stiffened. He looked at his nanny seriously, trying to guess. Something concerned Marya, for some reason, making her senses alert.


"Tell me Aunt Mai! That girl is my wife now, though not legally and religiously. One more thing, call me Elgio!"


"I'm sorry, Tu - an Mu - da. sorry .. I'm not used to saying your name."


"alright. Tell me what's up? Is the Goat Pony sick?" Elgio began to be impatient.


"Eh?!"


"Mom - right, I mean is he sick?" Elgio answered questions when he found Aunt Maribel confused. Confused at the goat's bangs. May also be confused ..., since when do goats make a bang? It was difficult for Elgio to mention 'Marya' while he liked the name 'Aruhi'.


"Can you come with me?"


Elgio nodded then followed behind Aunt Maribel towards the residence. It was a very late day and the house was quiet as usual. Reinha came back out of nowhere and didn't talk to her. He was dressed up so strange, even stranger, Reinha kept growling at him during lunch. That's never happened before. The girl also staged a strike. Elgio is understood because Reinha may still need time to relieve the storm of anger. One interesting and very mysterious thing, Elgio noticed Reinha was caught constantly rubbing her lips with a tissue maybe upset because the lipstick color was too ugly and difficult to remove.


Abner returned to his private apartment not far from Durante Land. The assistant went on a blind date. Abner Luiz is scared of singles ahead of head three and Elgio is curious which woman he dates?


Aunt Maribel let Elgio in and gestured for no noise before nodding towards the bathroom. From there caught a sedu sedan among the splashing tap water from the sink.


"What's going on?" asked Elgio muttering anxiously. Maribel took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.


"Miss Marya had been crying in the morning and night while going to the bathroom. He even slept restlessly in his bed all night. I couldn't hear or see, but I didn't know how to help. I also don't know for sure what happened. Miss may be suffering from something. He's been wailing for a lifetime, sir."


"Can you persuade him?"


Aunt Maribel shook her head in a doldrums, "No, sir. He will cry for about 15 minutes and then calm down. But I'll cry again tomorrow morning in the bathroom."


Elgio was sad. So, the girl had been dying for so many years. It must be about his bad memories.


"Can you leave us, Aunt Mai? I want to talk to him."


"All right, sir."


While Marya tried to overcome the pain inside hoping it was as easy as saying an appointment to Elgio this afternoon. Marya was determined to be able to. So, the effort begins with cramming positive thinking to overflowing. He will defeat half of Sociophobia before the strange disease imprisons him for life. He should be able to. So, he looked at the toothbrush and repeatedly said, "I'm fine, I'm healthy, I'm strong, I can heal, I'm happy."


Marya tries to give her body and mind time to heal themselves.


"Dad, I missed you. I will be sincere and live my life well. I'll make you proud. I'll make Mom regret for leaving us ... Mom ... ?!"


"Don't hate your mother, Aruhi!" Father's Voice.


"Mother?!"


Marya's eyes flickered before getting blurry. He washes his face repeatedly expelling Mom's voice and face.


"Mother?!"


Dizziness pounding his head with nausea that becomes-so.


"Mother will come tomorrow" he said unknowingly. He retreated away from the sink and sat limp on the bathroom door.


He's meeting Mom tomorrow, his positive thoughts turned into poison. Shadow Mom pulls the suitcase, steps out of the house and leaves in a fancy car dancing in the eyeballs. No goodbye kisses, no smiles. Mother's goodbye is the most painful sentence.


"If you grow up and meet me, pretend, don't know me. It can make me happy."


He has been wallowing in grief and paralyzed in memory, because of Mother. The bitterness for the bitterness that Mother left for her, was unforgivable by that languishing soul. How could you ask him not to hate you? Father's death is a tree of suffering that thrives for 13 years, comparable to his hatred for Mother.


"Oh my God, have mercy on me!"


All the feelings raging in the soul cannot be accommodated. Hatred, anger, longing and forms of emotion shackle memories, creating excruciating pain. It finds itself similar to a narrow space without air circulation, stuffy and suffocating.


Elgio save me!


The whispers of hearts faltered between heart palpitations before falling sucked at the bottom of the deepest canyon and stuck on rock rocks. No death just runs out of blood.


Geck! Geck! Geck!


A loud knock at the door brings his soul back to the body. The door was pushed harder. Aunt Maribel saved him this time, she did not say as she had because her lips were convulsing. Marya shifted with difficulty and rested on her trembling legs. He gripped the doorknob firmly before pulling himself up. The bathroom door lock turned and he was still in a daze trying to restore consciousness. Face and hair wet with tap water, sweat and tears. He took his breath back to normal.


"Aruhi?!" call Elgio slowly.


Elgio stood in frustration before Marya with a petrified jaw and a stiff face. Their eyes met for the first time after a long time. The highlight of Elgio's eyes is the reflection of Marya's eyes. Sendu is hurt by Marya's self-reflection, helpless by the tale of her bad past. At least, Elgio was present to answer Marya's heart call. It treated his hollow soul.


With thoughts of uncertainty, uncertainty and uncertainty about the future of his love with Elgio, Marya ....


"Can ... You hug me?"
