I'm Not/Only a Shadow
Alyla's pain
Now Alya was sitting opposite Aluna, Alyla was still silent and noticed Aluna "How does it feel to have been in my position all this time?"
Alyla frowned at what she meant.
"You're glad you weren't treated well by Adam, now I'm back so you can get back to where you are"
"What does brother mean?"
"Don't pretend to be stupid Alyla Adam still loves me until now, so let Adam let him come back to me"
"Sister joked we're married, and marriage isn't a game that can be exchanged like you did before"
"Alyla, I'm begging you to leave Adam and I'll go back to my place with Adam"
Alyla's hands clenched under the table "I don't understand what happened, sister came as if she had no fault after the news of death and now asked me to leave my husband" Alyla chuckled.
"Suami..?What you want to live in my shadow, don't you think Adam's attitude toward you is because Adam saw my face inside you, you know Adam didn't love me that much"
At that moment Alyla's mind wandered about Adam's attitude now so well treated him, and it used to be when Adam treated him when he became Aluna. "Then ask Adam to leave me" after convincing himself that word came out of his mouth.
"Of course Adam wouldn't want to because Adam felt sorry for you, after what you've been through do you think Adam was that bad?"Aluna said while chuckling.
"If Adam loved you so much he would do anything including leaving me" Alyla said, setting Aluna on fire, but she remained calm.
"So for this one week Adam's been spending time with me what do you think it's for?"
Aluna whispered something to Alyla's ears before moving on, said the word that managed to make a drop of tears fall just like that "Think well whether you're sure all this time Adam was overtime or he spent his time with me, decide if you will continue to be my shadow or go and let Adam be happy with me" Then Aluna just left with a grin.
Alyla squeezes her robe her heart aches so pierced can Adam really do that to her, really all this time Adam treated him only as Aluna.an incoming message to Alyla's phone with trembling hands Alyla opened the message to bring up a photo that managed to tear down his defense.poto that reads 'still willing to deny that Adam spent his time with me' Alyla cried no matter where she was in public she just wanted to cry releasing the tightness in her chest.
It has been almost an hour Alyla went to the toilet but never returned Adam was struck by worries what if something happened to his wife. "Azka's already playing we'll find Mommy first"
"Mommy where's Dad?"
"So the toilet, but not yet back"
"Let's go find Mommy" Adam took Azka into his carrier and out of the play area, but as soon as Adam and Azka came out Alyla had shown herself waving towards Azka with a cheerful smile and carrying two confectionery in her hand.
"Mommy I want to" Azka suddenly thrashed from Adam's sling and ran towards Alyla, Adam just flanged to see Azka who was so happy to see the confectionery, gone are Adam's worries once he sees Alyla is fine.
"Old purchase of confectionery yes"
Alyla nods without seeing Adam "Yes that was really good" Adam did not suspect Alyla's attitude, Adam thought that Alyla was focusing on Azka so he did not look at her.
Without Adam realizing Alyla was hiding her pain, Alyla did not want to look weak in front of Adam, let everything look good especially in front of Azka, the only reason Alyla still survive until now.
