I'm Just a Figurant
Ch 84 - Answers


I'm waiting for Alex in the room. I hope the man comes back and gives an answer. I waited for almost an hour, but Alex never came. In the end I went downstairs and looked for him. According to ART and security, Alex went out with the driver.


I went back to the room. Trying to guess and guess Alex's way of thinking. I've already conveyed my point in a good way. I hope Alex can accept my decision and let me go.


"Sir, Mama does not intend your misahin with Papa. There will come a time when you will understand your decision. Sorry Mama's on Deck..."


I was lying there waiting for Alex to hear a knock on my door.


Geck... Geck... Geck...


"Yes, come in." I sat down to see who was coming. I thought it must be Mbak Asih but it turned out that my guess was wrong. It was not Maak Asih who came, but Vinda.


"Sorry Mom, interrupt her break."


"Yes, what's wrong with Vinda?"


"Pak Yohan told me to pack her clothes."


"For what? Where the hell is he going?"


"To Sing*pura Ma'am. He ordered me to book the ticket."


Huh, to Sing*pura again? What was the phone call from Diana? What does this mean for Alex? To give me an answer after we meet again? He's hanging me again?


"Where is he now?"


"At the airport, Mom. Allow me to pack her clothes, ma'am."


"How long has he been in the country?"


"I don't know much, Mom. I just booked a departure ticket."


Again I have to wait for him. All right, I'll keep waiting. Isn't he used to making me like this? This time I cannot be affected by his attitude. My mind needs to stay calm so that my baby stays okay.


I went to the dressing room and started to prepare Alex's clothes. Willa will help me, but I forbid it. I'm not willing to see another woman put Alex's gear in front of my eyes. What a funny feeling. Soon I will be parting with that man.


"Sir, tell him, I'll wait for him. I hope he gives me the answer I want."


"Good Mom, I'll give you your message. Then, I'll excuse you first." Willa left with Alex's suitcase.


"Well Deck, we have to get ready too. Later if Papa comes, we can get the hell out of here." I picked up my suitcase and started packing my clothes. Good thing my stuff is just a little, so I won't have any hassles carrying it.


"We can go back to J city, meet Dek's grandparents. If they don't want to accept you, we can go to Malang or Surabaya. We still have a lot of destinations, don't worry..."


Finished packing the clothes, I looked back. Flash after flash of my memories with Alex started wandering through my head. From happy memories to sad ones.


Enough to get here the end of my love. The love that has been with me for 12 years. It's time I let go of this feeling and make myself and my son happy. I'm sure, without Alex we can still be happy.

It was the third day, but Alex never came. Maybe this time I'll wait longer than before.


The longer I waited, the more worry and worry began to haunt me. I'm afraid Alex refuses to let me go and this suffering will never end. What do I do to get Alex to let me go? Speaking well I've done, should I go quietly? Hah, if I do that Alex will definitely look for me and make a fuss. My parents will be worried about me too. It seems like the last option, I still have to patiently wait for him to come.

"Come to Resto De Luna. The will will take you. I'll give you an answer."


On the fourth day, I got a message from Alex. My feelings are not out of whack. There is fear as well as anxiety. I hope Alex doesn't make the matter any more complicated and wants to let me go immediately.


"What is Wind?"


"Pak Yohan told me to give this to you."


I took the box and opened it. It turned out to be a baby pink pregnant dress. The dress was long-sleeved and knee-length. The sleeves of the dress were transparent with a girly ribbon at the end of her arm. The bottom of the dress has a transparent tassel that makes the dress look more feminine. While on the abdomen there is a thin ribbon that is useful for adjusting the wearer's curves. Overall, the dress was beautiful.


"Why should I wear this dress?"


"I don't know much, Mom. I'm just following orders from Mr. Yohan."


"Where is he?"


"I think he's waiting at the promised place."


"All right I'll be wearing it soon. The sooner I meet him, the sooner this matter is resolved. Anything else I should wear?"


"Yes Mom. These are your shoes and your bag." Winda handed her flat shoes and a pink bag. This Yohan really likes to see me wearing pink. I will obey all his requests. This will be the last time I will obey him.


Winda helped me decorate. She polished my face with a flawless make up and styled my black hair. I saw my look in the glass. I look fresher and younger than I am. I look like a beautiful young mother. The matching look met with Alex for the last time.


"I'm ready Win, let's go."


"Good Mom."


Winda took me to a European restaurant located in North Jakarta. Along the way, I suppressed my nervousness by drinking mineral water and rubbing my hands.


I hope Alex gives me the answer I want. But on the other side of my heart came a feeling of sadness and pain when it really happened. Really, why does my heart get so complicated like this?


After a half-hour drive, the car stopped at one of the European restaurants. The resto presents a shady and comfortable concept. In front of the restaurant there are many plants, so it will make visitors feel at home to be there for a long time.


The restaurant has a concept of a building with glassy windows, so visitors can see the scenery outside the restaurant. Many yellow decorative lights decorate the corners so that at a glance reminds us of the collection of fireflies.


Winda took me into the resto. Inside the restaurant there is a large and shady tree where each branch is decorated by dimly colored lights. In every room decorated by beautiful plants and flowers. Almost in every corner of the room in the decor like a wedding or engagement party?


"Sir, aren't we wrong to enter the resto?"


"No Ma'am. I'm pretty sure this is where it is. And that's Mr. Yohan..." Winda rolled his eyes, giving me a cue to look at the direction of his gaze.


Right too, I saw Alex there. Seeing me coming, he immediately stood up and walked towards me. Alex wears a bone-white slimfit shirt. His long arms he rolled until he looked like the muscles of his arms. He wears beige pants and brown shoes. That performance reminded me of our first meeting at the reunion.


Alex brushed her hair neatly and walked towards me confidently. His amazingly handsome appearance shook my heart. Can I part with this man?


At first my gaze was fixed only on Alex, before I finally realized the figures behind the man. I saw a group of people sitting at a big table behind Alex. I recognized some of the people there, even more so with a beautiful figure that was waving her hands at me. Yes, I saw Diana there!!


Instantly a feeling of nausea and dizziness ensued. My stomach was turbulent, while the lashing of dizziness in my head made my gaze sway. Cold sweat soaked my temples.


My body started to wobble. My eyes gradually began to darken. I can't stand up anymore. Before I actually fell, I felt a strong hand supporting my body and carrying me into his arms.


"Khanza!!" I heard Alex's screams and the sound of several steps approaching me. Their faces looked very anxious. I looked at Alex's anxious face one last time, before finally falling unconscious.
