Leaning Sweet Me
Faiz's Regret
"You.."
"It's me.."
"You're okay, right?"
Metta regained her senses and pulled her hand quickly.
"Why are you here?"
"Emph.I have a meeting here, but it looks like I got lost earlier on wrong pii..."
Metta nodded and interrupted."Thanks, I'm fine."
With a quick step, Metta Meleos left Faiz still talking, walking with a fresh pounding of feet, no matter what. Metta continued to walk until he turned to the office hallway.
Dugs...
"Awsss...duh pain, my leg!"
"Mettasha is okay"
Metta's co-worker who happened to be there approached him.
Metta bent over rubbing her ankle, "It looks like my leg sprained,"
"According, your shoe heels almost broke. Let me take you to the health room." Said one of his colleagues.
"No, I don't want to go to my room"
"Yes I've been driving there" holding Metta's arm and holding her up.
"Wait for me"
Faiz walked over to Metta and his partner.
"Let me drive him"
Without a word Faiz carried Metta ala bridal style, "Hey, put me down. Sir put me down"
"Stop, put me down here" Metta started thrashing, after passing through her room.
Czechoslovak...Czechoslovak...
Someone was taking pictures of them with a camera from afar.
Faiz did not comment on Metta's words, he continued to carry Metta until a chair in the park near his office, Faiz placed Metta in the chair. Metta quickly got up from her seat, but her body was dazed, with Faiz deftly grabbing Metta so as not to fall.
"Sit down first, let me see your feet"
Metta let go of Faiz's hand, "I'm fine"
"His nature still hasn't changed" Faiz grinned.
"I'm sorry I don't know you, rather I don't want to know you,"
Metta walked back in with a limp.
"Hard-headed"
Metta turned around "Oh yeah stubborn? right I'm so stubborn, so what do you care?"continue the step back.
Faiz pursued "I'm sorry, can you sit down first, I just want to help"
Metta stopped his steps"It wouldn't be better for you to go"
Faiz grabbed Metta's hand, "Please, just give me a chance, I just want to help no more"
Metta exhaled, and people had already begun to look in his direction. Finally Metta sat back down, he did not want people to think they were a couple who were fighting.
Faiz raised his lips again, he crouched down before Metta. Opening high hills Metta.
"I'm sorry but I have to see it."
Faiz lifted Metta's sprained leg, looking at it slowly at the part of the leg that began to reddish. Metta grimaced but there was also a hard feeling she was resisting inside.
"Hindu.not but hate yaa hate.."
Metta turned her gaze the other way, she did not want if her heart arrived weak and unsteady.
The figure he used to love, still with the same behavior, the same smile, the spoken word made Metta's memory spin back without him asking.
As well as the figure who gave him a wound, leaving a strange for his life.The promise of a sweet promise that was spoken but denied that he got.
"Your legs sprained because of your high hills almost broke, but thank goodness it's not too bad." Said Faiz lowering Metta's foot from the pedestal of his thigh.
"Something I want to talk about."

Sitting face to face at a cafe not far from the office where Metta worked, Metta agreed Faiz's invitation by force.
"Quick I don't have much time, what do you want to say" Metta turned her gaze outward.
Perih, when the person he used to love today, that person does not want to know again.
Faiz hesitated to ask, "Do you live happily?"
Metta smiled cynically but was reluctant to change the direction of his gaze, as if the outside was more interesting to see than the figure before him.
"Is this important for you to know?"
"In what way should I apologize, it's not at my will"
"Go and don't come back"
"Sorry but it can't be Sha, I'll make up for all my mistakes on you and your family"
Metta turned to look at Faiz, "Redeeming which of your mistakes?"
"Sha, please listen to me first" Faiz grabbed Metta's hand on the table. But as quickly as lightning Metta pulled his hand.
"Please give me some time to explain everything."
"Have it been if there's nothing else you want to say, I better get back to the office" Metta began to stand up.
"Dad asked me to go back to Surabaya, that very day, the day I should have married you,"
Metta fell silent, which she knew her father and mother had indeed been separated for a long time.
"Otherwise, she won't care anymore about the mother's treatment. You know for yourself, I used to not even have an established job."
Faiz guided Metta's hand to his feet until he sat down again.
"I didn't have a choice Sha, at that time I was afraid, thinking about how my mother's fate, even my father would stop my mother's treatment costs, you knew it wasn't that time my mother was even being treated."
Metta was silent, she did know, even when the application event was only Faiz and family of his mother who came, while his own mother was sick and undergoing intense treatment in the hospital.
Metta was still silent, I don't know what he should say.
"But now that I'm back Sha, I'll make up for all my mistakes" Faiz again grabbed Metta's hand.
"No need, forget about the mass, live well"
"I want to go back with you Sha"
Metta exhaled to hold back the bulir that was about to slide from his eye patch.
"I still love you so much Sha"
"Then where have you been for the past 2 years, have you ever thought of me,?my family,?is that what you say love?" Metta could no longer stem her tears with the question questions she had been keeping up all this time.
"You even left without a word, you think I'm selfish, I'd forbid you to go if I knew that day, right?"
"It's not like that, I'm really sorry Sha..."
"There is nothing to be sorry about, the choice is in your hands and you choose to leave. Whatever the reason"
Metta wiped the clear hairs on his eyes. He did not want to dissolve in regrets and excuses Faiz gave.
"Live well, never regret what has happened" Metta got out of her seat and walked out.
"Don't you know who you're working for Sha?"
"What do you mean?"
