Mona, who was sitting next to Kayla, occasionally stole a glance at her friend's side. The incident at the agency office was enough to make the model stunned, not expecting if the impact of the widespread video spread in the virtual world was so great that it even destroyed the career of the wife of the series Mahesa in an instant. A hard-earned career built from scratch is now shattered into pieces. Not only that, Kayla's image as a top model in the country and the international scene is tarnished replaced by the name of the actor pinned to her.
The look on Kayla's face looked glum, blank eyes forward. Today's events are beyond Kayla's and Mona's predictions.
"Kayla, are you okay?" mona asked softly while watching Kayla's face.
The former famous model with more working hours than her fellow Top Model Agency coworkers took a quick glance, then stared back straight ahead.
"Do you think I'm okay after everything that happened to me? No, Mon! If you think I'm in good shape right now, then the answer is wrong."
"At this moment I was falling, falling. The career I built over the years was destroyed and my image as a top model was lost. The wages that I should have earned for nearly five months were not paid by them. For five months, they used my services for free! Can I still say that I'm okay right now?" sahut Kayla is fiery. The woman looked frustrated, her eyes were flushed and her nose was sour.
Kayla had trouble blocking the crystal grains so as not to fall wet the cheeks. Not wanting to look weak in front of his assistant.
Mona breathed deeply. He will react the same if he is in the position of Kayla. During the day, hot, Spanish guitar-bodied women work hard to collect rupiah coffers so that account balances increase. However, apparently the sweat is pouring out and the wasted energy does not produce anything. Only tired to get.
"I can understand how you feel but .. how else would rice be porridge. Everything has happened, and it can't be played back. So, what are you going to do now? Looking for another job? Or do you want to take a break from your routine as a model?" mona said in a slow tone and very carefully.
Kayla's emotions became unstable after the surgical removal of the uterus a few months ago, so Mona had to be careful in speaking words. Trying not to offend his close friend.
Kayla was silent, and did not immediately answer Mona's question. The woman leaned back, resting her head on the back of the passenger seat.
"For a while I want to rest first while accompanying Mas Mahesa in the hospital. After all, there were still two weeks of my time left to be with my husband before paying them back the cover money. Want to make the most of it, hoping for a miracle to come."
Again and again Mona let out a long sigh. In this situation, Kayla is still thinking about Mahesa when her career has been destroyed, her uterus lifted, her image as a model smeared, and her, no longer considered a son-in-law by the Adiguna family and the fate of his household was not clear because until this moment there was no word talak spoken from the lips of Mahesa.
***
The silence in the ICU stretched, a handsome man was lying weakly on a hospital bed with various hoses attached to his body. Only the monitor beside the bed sounded. An oxygen hose is stuck in the nose, helping the patient to breathe.
All medical personnel who served in the ICU room raised their hands with the patient's condition, they gave up because until this moment there were no signs if the patient would wake up from a coma. Even so, both the patient's parents and the wife who are no longer considered to be present by Naila and Putra, continue to hope that a miracle happens.
"Mas .. I came again. However, this time I want to confide in you," said Kayla Lirih. The woman remained with her original plan, coming to the hospital even though her image as a famous model had been destroyed by the viral video which was becoming a warm conversation of all +62 citizens.
Sitting on the side of the bed, fingers clasped tightly onto Mahesa's palms. Occasionally give a kiss full of love on the back of the hand of the beloved husband.
"Today many unexpected events have happened to me. Starting from the incident at the chicken porridge shop to the incident at the agency office." Pause for a moment, gather the courage to tell Mahesa the truth. "All this happened due to a video that is being viral in cyberspace. Video of me and your ex-wife fighting at a famous cafe in the Bali area."
"Not only that, the video when I had a fight with Arumi in a mall also circulated. You remember, when we were about to have lunch together at one of the famous restaurants. At the same time apparently Arumi was in the same mall with us." The woman's mind glared deep into a dimension in the past. The time when she still contains the fruits of her love with her husband.
Recalling the events of a few months ago, Kayla's chest felt tight. Reddened eyes held back the cry, his voice was also stuck in the throat. At that time, he and Mahesa were so happy about the presence of the little one who grew healthy in the woman's womb. The presence of the successor to the Adiguna family that has been waiting for has grown in the womb of the wife of the Mahesa series.
The tears were already being held back by Kayla. The crystal grains fell down on the cheeks. Her chest was crowded if she remembered how she used to be so devious that she intended to put Arumi in Mahesa's eyes.
"I'm wrong, Mas, not Arumi. Your ex-wife is innocent. I made you a scapegoat so you hate that woman even more!" The sound of tears slashing the heart echoed across the ICU room. Kayla's heart ached like a knife that threatened to stab into the deepest bone marrow. So sick and so sad.
With tears rolling down her cheeks, Kayla couldn't stand the pain she's been through these days. All the arrogance and arrogance that he possessed was gone.
"You ... must be angry, right after knowing what really happened?" Back to speaking in a loud voice. "I can understand if you are angry with me, but the truth is like that. I had to do it all out of fear of losing you. I'm afraid you went back to Arumi and left me alone."
"My love for you is so great that it makes me blind. I did all sorts of things to keep you by my side forever. I'm sorry, Mas .. I'm sorry, I ...."
"However, now the deeds I did to Arumi have been avenged by God. I reap the rewards of what I have done in the past. Without Arumi desperately intervening, karma comes to me. Just because of the video, my career as a model was ruined, my good name was also tarnished. Everyone calls me an actor."
Tears trickled back into Kayla's eye. Yes ... the woman was aware of the evil deeds that had been done against Arumi first.
With how Kayla snatched the husband from her own best friend. Draw up a plan for the good woman who always protects herself from bully-an friends in the orphanage to see how the model doing hot fights on the bed with the man who has been lawfully the husband of Arumi. Exchanging salivaries, fighting moans and sighs until they reach a point of enjoyment together.
"I'm sorry, Mas. Really, really sorry. In the past, I should have turned down Aunt Naila's request. However, due to my love for your Mama and the growing grudge that bloomed within me made me darken my eyes. Willing to be the dark lover of a married man. Without thinking about Arumi's feelings, I took away what belonged to your ex-wife, but she was so kind to me."
Mona, who was standing inside the ICU, accompanied Kayla to tears. Can't bear to see Kayla sobbing in front of Mahesa who was lying unconscious. He was concerned about what happened to his best friend.
"However, it's all happened. I can't give back everything that happened. Right now I just hope Arumi will forgive all the mistakes I've done to her. Although I know, the word sorry alone can not treat the pain that I once incised in his heart. But at least I tried. Isn't that right, Mas?"
Kayla tried to smile forced, although tears still did not stop flowing on the cheeks. "After you woke up, we both met Arumi, apologizing to your ex-wife. How, you agree no?" The woman again invited Mahesa to speak, though she knew that her husband would not respond.
The woman looked at Mahesa's increasingly thin face. The man's body weight shrank, there was no longer a strapping body with muscle carvings everywhere. The sunken and pale face was like a corpse. Even so, in Kayla's eyes, her husband was still a manly, handsome and able to thrill the soul.
Kayla glanced at the circular watch on her wrist, the time was two o'clock in the afternoon. Naila would usually come to the hospital, looking after her favorite son.
Kayla's hand was raised upwards, wiping away the tears that drenched her cheeks using the handkerchief that was in her pants pocket. Breathe deeply, while calming down.
After feeling her body calm enough, Kayla said. "I have to go home before your mom finds me here. Tomorrow, I'll come back here again. See you, Mas." Give a kiss full of love on Mahesa's forehead, then get up from the chair. Leaving the ICU room.
Seconds after Kayla's departure, unnoticed by anyone, Mahesa's fingers moved slowly.
