"Why is Arumi so rude to Mom?"
Both of them can not sleep, just back and forth agitated by a lot of feelings, thoughts, either by a mix of various emotions. Salsa looked at Marya, since the woman's eyes were wet. Finally got here they were, about Arumi. He hasn't spoken yet but has begun to sob.
"I deserve it, Aruhi. I also have a sin against Arumi," replied Salsa, looking to say many things. He will confess his sins to the walls of Aruhi's heart and see how far Aruhi will forgive him, he is prepared for a consequence even if it is a sadistic plague.
Salsa again stroked Marya's cheek, as if her honest card would soon expire, as if she would never be given that rare opportunity again, there would be no more miracles. After Aruhi's deepest confession about Arumi and evil for evil, he is pessimistic whether Aruhi can really accept himself back? Many ungodly things from the past that even personally made it difficult for him to be at peace with himself.
Salsa lives in long-lasting regret and guilt, two things more painful than death even though both come when her life is stuck at the end of her neck. He tortured himself for redemption but still not enough.
"You don't want to ask, why do you have a sister two years younger than you?!"
Salsa was lying on a pillow, the veins had been emblazoned under the dim light of the room, on the face that had begun to contain. Returning from the pillow, he looked at Marya with a deep look of pain, like a criminal begging for repentance due to a slack but, as if as for forgiveness was never appropriate.
Marya didn't want to hear, she buried her face in the pillow hoping that Mom would banish the conversation from her. Marya is not a stupid girl she is just too busy happily meeting Mom, missing important things about Arumi. They're only two years apart. That means .... Did you cheat on me and have another child?
"I don't want to hear," Marya lamented sadly.
Little Aruhi knows, his mother has many men. When Dad wasn't around, his mom went out with another guy and became a neighbor's gossip. Mom's gone for days. He was often left with a nanny while Dad was busy working for Mr. Leon.
"I had a lot of men when I was with Benn."
"I don't want to hear you, please!" Marya began to sob, wriggling withstanding the pain. How much more torture? Neighbors said Mom sold herself. Marya hiccups getting louder even without a sound. His throat was clogged and dry.
"I was smitten by my boss, the boss I worked for and lulled to him, Arumi's father; my current husband. We spent a lot of time together until I had Arumi in my body." Laugh bitterly but keep crying, do not stop self-deprecating. How bad it was in the past.
Marya's wailing was more and more poignant, wallowing tears in the pillow. How poor his father was, how very poor. That's why you always say, don't hate Mom but don't trust her. Did Dad know?! Luckily, I have been dwelling in eternity, so there is no need to feel this pain. Marya will endure it.
"Mom, I don't want to hear. I don't care about the past that we can't change, Mother. Suffering from the past will never break and regret will make us feel guilty without end if it continues to be remembered," said Marya vibrated her voice ended like the howling of a creature in the sacrosanct of death. He's getting nauseous.
"I tied my stomach and drank a lot of hard drugs to kill him, but it was unexpected that he was born prematurely. It's as small as a beer bottle. I was terrified and left the baby to her father" Salsa said, mocking herself.
"You can stop, Mother. Tomorrow is waiting for you. Just let the past be buried back there," Marya lamented in increasing pain. His eyes were twitching.
"I gave birth to an angel, you're a very great girl, but you have to hear confessions from damned demons like me. Determine the intention and I will fast to make up for it or you can ask God to lower the plague for me." Salsa was crying, curling in a blanket.
"I don't want to hear, I want the past to end and start with a new chapter. I have forgiven Mother wholeheartedly no matter how bad Mother was at that time. Please, Mother."
"That's why you should know how much I'm just a whore from the past, I dumped Arumi and she suffered in an incubator for months. How wicked I am. Benn doesn't even know I betrayed him."
Marya rolled down from the bed, unable to do so anymore. Breathing out loud, Marya staggered into the bathroom, locked the door and started vomiting there. His head turned dizzy, the attack returned. He was unable to answer Salsa's panicked call. Marya turned on the shower and curled up underneath.
Marya thought her pain in Mom could be muted by time, eroded little by little while the clockwork rolled slowly but surely healed the wound, now she was shocked.
"Aruhi? Are you all right?" call Sunny to panic. "What did you do to him, brother.
Marya groans in pain. Can we go back in time and fix our destiny? Why not just stop regretting, forgive mistakes, make bitter memories a joke and step forward?
"Sunny, call Elgio!" pinta Salsa was terrified, unexpectedly at Aruhi's reaction. The girl who looked calm, seductive and affectionate was .... Salsa beat her own chest strongly. He kept making wounds for the girl.
While Elgio is speeding through the streets of a sleepy town, fix his instincts, how wrong decisions Marya left in Diomanta Pavilion. The uncontrollable pace of the car was echoed by a dead-end thought. Marya's wet look was frightened in the bathroom when their eyes first met, haunting her. Marya has recovered mentally and psychologically, why down so easily? Did something happen?
As if he didn't want his girlfriend to die any longer, the man broke through the night. He shouldn't have left Marya there. He really objected but Marya wanted to stay.
Time rotates more slowly and empty streets stretch the void. Call Marya's heart, "Elgio save me!" it echoed in his head. He raced faster and cornered sharply until the tires of his car squeaked in the courtyard of Diomanta Pavilion.
"What's going on?!" elgio asked Sunny who was standing on edge.
"I don't know for sure. Aruhi's in her mother's bathroom."
Elgio watched the clock, 30 minutes from Sunny's phone call. That means Marya has been longer than 15 minutes. Almost three times longer.
"Marya?!" Elgio knocked on the bathroom door slowly. "Are you okay, honey? Can you open the door?"
There's no answer. Elgio lost his patience.
"Elgio, this is the spare key. The design of the bathroom door uses a button but in an emergency we can use the key from the outside."
Sunny was struggling while Salsa sat on the bed helplessly. The door was successfully opened and Elgio was relieved because the girl was just glued under the shower. Elgio closes the bathroom door, turns off the shower button and joins Marya under the shower. He took off Marya's soaked coat and gave her a warm hug.
"What are you doing? You can catch a cold." Elgio. "Tell me, how do you feel?"
"Elgio .. can we go to the past? Can we change fate, correct mistakes?"
Elgio breathed a heavy sigh. "How about we go out and go back to Durante Land? Aunt Mai make you rendang. Hmm?!"
Marya shook her head lethargicly, "Can you stay with me tonight here? My mom needs help to get rid of past regrets and get rid of mistakes. I need someone to accompany her on the right path. I'm responsible for him and I can't just leave him alone."
"All right, let's get out. You can get sick, Marya."
Elgio carried the girl out of the bathroom and Sunny had prepared with a warm blanket, the woman's face shriveling anxiously. The waiter with the hot chocolate cup stood behind Sunny.
"Is he okay?!" salsa asked softly almost in a whisper.
"Yes. I will take Aruhi to her room and will stay here tonight."
"Do you feel short of breath?" elgio asked while Marya was wrapped tightly in a blanket after exchanging clothes. Elgio helped her drink some warm chocolate, both of them sitting on the couch in the room.
"No, I'm just nauseous and vomiting. I thought I had to deal with the trauma so I could really see how far I had recovered."
"You feeling better now?" ask Elgio to remove the hair on Marya's forehead.
"I'm troubling you again."
"No, I love you and can't sleep thinking of you."
Elgio hugged her tighter. Don't want to ask why or why or how. He just gave a warm hug and let his chest to Marya lean on.
Sunny returned with the hair dryer in her hand.
"Your head will be sore, wet. I'll dry your hair, Aruhi."
"Let me just." Elgio let go of the hug and extended his hand. Sunny raised his forehead before nodding in agreement. That thing changed hands.
"You can call me if you need help. I'll wait in the living room."
"Go to bed, Sunny. I'll take care of it" Elgio said. Sunny was silent for a moment before the mangosteen, admiring how much the man loved Aruhi. After Salsa went Elgio turn on the hair dryer.
Hairdryer moves in the strands of Marya's hair every once in a while Elgio stroked the girl's head trying to make her comfortable. Marya was fascinated by that simple thing, she was so unlucky with the past, but her future really made her heart flutter.
"You're so good at using that, Elgio?"
Elgio smiled, "It's easier than a shaving machine. Come here, your bangs need a dryer, too. Oh my God, it's like a goat's moustache." The man ruffled Marya's bangs making the girl chuckle.
"Elgio goat's whiskers aren't this soft. You're making it up."
"This bang is disturbing! Say goodbye, I'll take him out of your face tonight."
"Alright, my friends say I'm very pretty without bangs," her tease still smiles.
"Oh no's. Then let your long bangs cover your eyes. Just please don't wander around in the middle of the night. I could die of fear" complained Elgio.
Marya raised her face to look at Elgio who I brought her.
"Don't look at me like that, you know it could end up being dangerous." Elgio grimaced trying not to touch even though he wanted to. Instead the man kissed Marya on the top of her head. Marya's hair was completely dry and soft on her hands. The man rubbed the squash.
"Done. Come here, I'll hold you until you fall asleep."
"Thank you for coming" said Marya.
"I'm not Superman but you can call my name and I'll come to you even if I can't in the blink of an eye."
The man arranges the blanket and Marya falls asleep on Elgio's chest, finding peace over a regularly beating heart. Marya close her eyes. Elgio Durante is a true comfort to his fragile self.
The room lights off, just bright from the balcony lights, Elgio falls asleep with Marya in his arms. They don't move on from the couch. I do not know how long he dreamed until his body felt hugging the wind, very cold. Elgio squirms on the sofa, immediately shocked when Marya is not in his arms. Defeat sleepiness, Elgio tries to wake up. He found the exit to the balcony slightly open and the curtain waving in the night breeze. What's that girl doing out there in the middle of the night? Elgio pounded anxiously away to the balcony. The sky darkened just millions of stars flickering up there.
"Marya?!" call Elgio slowly.
No answer, empty balcony leaping. There was no sound or sound from the bathroom. Did he go to the kitchen? Elgio closed the balcony door and joined the curtains. He turned around when the door opened. The girl stood there with her bangs strangely jumping like vampires in Chinese movies, coming at her quickly. Elgio was surprised to run to the sofa and hide behind a blanket while Marya laughed loudly so funny.
"You're still afraid of ghosts? Too bad you're almost 24?" exclaim Marya jubilant managed jahilin Elgio Durante. Marya approached and Elgio's blanket was pulled.
Surprise ....
Elgio immediately pounced on Marya. "Then you now ...." The man tickled Marya until the girl burst into endless laughter. "Stop hanging around with your goat bangs, you look like Sadako's half-sister. Oh my God, just be surprised!"
"Yes yes, all right. Let go of me" Marya said as Elgio locked her on the couch.
"No way, you've ruined my sleep. I think you should be willing to be punished. You can't run from me!"
Marya laughed while struggling to escape from Elgio but to no avail. The man restrained her in sturdy arms, carrying Marya around in circles in the room.
"Stop!"
Marya laughed and hugged Elgio's neck tightly. They ended up on the couch with their legs. The man swiped his nose on Marya's nose, symbolizing a deeply loving feeling. So cute, so romantic. Marya closed her eyes and felt Elgio's warm breath on her face. His bangs were shifted and the fingers moved there, swipe by swipe, no hurry.
"Open your eyes, please!" elgio Pinta. Marya shook her head, closing her eyes stronger. Elgio smiled, "Alright. I'm getting easier to work."
The man lands smoothly on Marya's eyelids, runs down her nose, rubs on her cheeks by an outpouring of affection and ends up teasing Marya with a sensual kiss on the girl's lips; a sweet gulp. His lips wandered there, between the sighs of breath and the rhythm of the heart. A body vibrating in submission is an exciting rhythm.
"You can't get out of my sight, Marya. I could die of anxiety."
Elgio will not end it quickly, they will fill a quiet night with sweet love, as sweet as a cup of warm chocolate.
