I'm Just a Figurant
Ch 47 - Unexpected Meeting

I went out and got to eat. Fortunately there are still some street vendors that are still open. I eat with it.

I eat fried rice. After it runs out, I order defaults at the other merchant. I eat portions for three people. I don't care anymore, the important thing is I'm full.

After I was full, my mind started to calm down. I rubbed my stomach with my darling.

"It's full Deck, we go home yuk..." I took the bike and went home to the boarding house. After that I went back to lying in bed.

The infotaiment news came back to my mind. A deep pain pierced my heart. I didn't want to cry, but tears kept flowing down my cheeks.

From the beginning Alex was not mine, but Diana's property so it's natural that in the end they get married. I was the third person in their relationship. I'm the one who caused Alex to betray Diana, I'm the guilty one here. But why does it still feel sick?

If I feel this sick, then what about Diana? We both had that relationship, until I got pregnant. What if Diana knew this? Diana would have been even more hurt. So I don't need to feel victimized here, because the real victim is Diana and I'm the villain.

If Diana and Alex get married, I'll try to be breastfed. My little heart could not accept it, but my sane mind prayed for their happiness.

"Sorry At... I was so proud to want yours. May your marriage and Alex be happy. I promise I won't show up in front of you again. Be happy you two... I'm sorry..."

I hugged my stomach tightly. Hiding my sadness from my baby. I hope he doesn't realize my feelings and grieves.

In that instant, I promised I'd forget Alex. I will not expect him anymore or dream of living happily with him. A dream is a dream, it will never come true. All this time I've been living with my own feelings without using any logic.

Alex and Diana's marriage opened my mind. No matter how much I love, but if the one we love does not love Us, then it will only become foam in the ocean. Which will be lost in the waves.

I'm gonna let go of my feelings for Alex. I'm just gonna love my son. I will focus on the happiness of Me and my son. Without Alex we'd be happy too, I'm sure of it!

"Sir, forget what Mama said yesterday. You don't have Papa, you only have Mama. We'll live together. Later after you are born, Mama will bring you to meet kakung and uti. They'll love you Dek, just like Mama loves you too. So you can't be sad, we'll be happy."

I deleted all my social media accounts. I also deleted Group FB. All the photos of Alex that I kept in the gallery have also been removed. I don't want to know about their news. The more I know it, the more it makes me feel sad. If I am sad, it will greatly affect the state of my baby. I don't want that to happen.

I withdraw from the outside world. I avoided the TV for fear of seeing their news spread. I will really close my heart. Prevent it from deeper heartache.

I was just communicating with my family and Sizil. The family forced me to go home, but I always looked for reasons to refuse. Sizil always wanted to know where I was, but I also managed to avoid it.

One night Sizil and I were on a phone.

"Mom, these days there's been a call from the head office."

"Don't the head office call every day Zil?"

"Yes, it's Mom. But strangely they called asking Mom. We told you too that I've resigned and come back to Mother City..."

"What's the problem, Zil? As I recall, all the work I've done."

"Yes, I am here too, Mom. We asked if there was any unfinished work? But he won't answer Mom."

"What woman does Zil find? Try to remember Zil, is there a job I haven't finished yet?"

"Female Ma'am. He said his name was Winda. Indeed, the name of Winda market is really Mom, but how I feel Winda who nyari Mom is the same Winda as the new secretary of GH is Mom."

"Huh? What do you mean Zil?"

"Oh yes forgot, I didn't attend the meeting when GH just left. Don't-don't because Mom didn't join the meeting, so look for it. Being told the same responsibility target times ma'am."

"Ihh ngaco You. That was the case a few months ago. Why is it asking for responsibility for the new target now? It's strange. After all, my work has been completed I have all and I have handed over my replacement. Why not just find my replacement?"

"I'm confused there, Mom. I don't know what purpose he's looking for Mom for. Forget that... Forget that... Where is Mom now? What again?"

I did not think of the words of Sizil. I don't really care about anything else but my baby.

That morning I did my usual activities. I have breakfast in large quantities to fill my energy. That day I had an appointment with one of my priority clients.

The female and around 50-year-old customer seemed interested in my insurance product. He invited me to his house, giving me an opportunity to explain the product clearly.

I wear kangaroo pants and a batik top that has a loose belly. Batik clothes designed for pregnant women there are two straps on the sides. I tied the rope back so that the result was that my stomach seemed bigger and protruding.

My pregnancy is six months old. My body is still as slim as ever. Only my stomach is so prominent. It seems like the nutrition of the food I eat only goes to my baby's body. There is no fat in my body. Just a baby in the stomach.

Many pregnant women are envious of my health and body. I'm so grateful. My baby really doesn't bother me. He's very understanding.

I already know the gender of my baby, and he's a boy, yeay!! I imagined a handsome little boy in my dreams. He must be my son.

I polished my face with minimalist makeup and untied my long black hair. I'm done dressing up. I saw my appearance in the mirror. Although only working as an agent, but my appearance is not inferior to bank employees in general. I am satisfied with my look.

"Good Deck, Mama's ready. Let's get to work now."

I picked up the motorbike at the parking lot and began to drive it towards the elite housing in the city of Malang. My heart is flowery, imagining soon to be able to customers.

"If today's the goal, all his commissions will be Mama buyin for your items Deck. Doain Mama's goal is Dek..." I said while driving the motorbike.

Half an hour's drive, I finally entered that elite area. I searched the house according to the address given by the customer. Fifteen minutes of searching, I finally found it. I pressed the doorbell of the house.

Ting... Kegs... Ting... Kegs...

Ting... Kegs... Ting... Kegs...

"Yes a minute." A man's voice came from inside. I sat there, waiting patiently. Five minutes later, the gate opened and...

I saw that face!! A face I know very well. The face that for a dozen years was lodged in my dreams.

Yeah, I saw ALEX!!

We were both stunned. We looked at it for a long time. No sound came out. Just a look of shock that was very real.

"Kh-khansa..." I heard Alex's voice saying my name. He looked at me from top to bottom. His eyes were fixed on my stomach. Kilas was surprised to see more on his face.

I spontaneously closed my stomach with my hands. I feel naked. I was shocked to have done something wrong. L'm...

"Who's coming Al?" Suddenly from behind Alex's body appears a beautiful woman. Just one look I know who he is. Yes, she is Diana, a Princess D.

Diana approached Us. And a flash of pain slapped me back when I saw her bulging belly. Diana is pregnant too!!
