Love, Life, and Jennifer
The Day's!

A week after Joon's arrival to my room, Mr. McCourtney came to me to give me some of the information he got.

"After seeing the cctv footage from the 5th floor of Park Young Joon's company, the footage shows Ms Tan always coming to Mr. Park's office 3 or 4 times a week." Said Mr. McCourtney, reading the file in front of him.

"According to the story of one of the employees, Mr. Park once told them to prevent Ms. Tan from meeting Mr. Park, but somehow, Ms. Tan can still come." Mr. McCourtney continued.

I was just speechless to hear Mr. McCourtney's explanation.

"Miss Tan always waits for Mr. Park to come home, and then they go home together."

Mr. McCourtney's explanation this time, really made my chest ache.

"The other employee said, Ms. Tan has the label 'important client' or 'special client'."

I smiled bitterly at this explanation.

"One of the employees, caught Ms. Tan hugging Mr. Park, a few months ago."

I couldn't hold back my tears this time. Mr. McCourtney stopped his testimony.

"Sorry, Jennifer..." Mr. McCourtney seemed to feel guilty to me

"It's okay, sir. Continue on." I said convince him.

"I think that's enough." Mr. McCourtney seemed to understand my feelings

"Hmmm... Okay..." I said.

"Sir, a week ago, a few minutes after you left, Young Joon came here." I said continue

"Then, what happens next?" Mr. McCourtney is investigating

"He attacked me." I said with teary eyes

"What do you mean, he hit you?" Mr. McCourtney made sure

"No, he tried to touch me by force." My solute.

Mr. McCourtney seemed confused by my description this time.

"If this falls into the category of domestic violence, I have a piece of evidence, for a second!"

I got up from my seat, then walked towards the suitcase, and took my shirt that was torn off by Young Joon, then walked back towards Mr. McCourtney to show him.

Mr. McCourtney grabbed the shirt, then looked at it.

"If you need a witness, we can meet the receptionist and some security who dragged him out." I made sure, then Mr. McCourtney nodded.

*****************

3 Months after a pretty tough process, I finally officially divorced Park Young Joon!

Yeaahh... I'm a free woman now!

I have rented an apartment now, having spent the rest of my money, stayed for 10 days in the hotel, and paid for the services of a lawyer to take care of my divorce.

I never once set foot in our house, after my last departure. I left all my stuff there.

About the treasure, I didn't think about it at all.

I haven't even seen Young Joon since.

I can admit, Mr. McCourtney is a very good lawyer!

Regarding money, I still have a little savings that I saved from my parents' gifts, when I was in college.

I will continue my studies! As per the initial plan.

I called Clarence to invite him to my apartment, to celebrate my divorce!

Doesn't this make no sense, you're partying for a tragedy?

**********************

"What are you gonna do now?" Ask Clarence

"Continue college, of course! And maybe, I'll visit aunt Margaret, before I go back to Indonesia." Answer me

"Do your parents know?" Look at Clarence

"It takes time for that." Answer me with sadness

"Are you sure your ex-husband wouldn't tell them?" Clarence went back to probing, I took a deep breath

"He wouldn't have the guts for that." My words convince.

"Okay, let's celebrate your freedom from the shackles of pain!" Clarence's words really made me laugh to the brink!

"By the way, how much longer are you going to finish your studies?" Clarence looked at my face

"About 3 months. Ahhhh... Can you help me finish my script? My laptop was left at Young Joon's..." I feel so sad.

"That's a very easy thing! I make money from it too!" Clarence seemed proud

"I don't think my savings will be enough to pay for it..." I was sad to hear Clarence say that

"Hahahahhaaa.... Come, Elle.. Didn't I tell you once that seeing you breathe, and living well, is enough to pay for everything I give you." He said, with a big smile.

I smiled in relief hearing Clarence say that, and immediately hugged him.

**********************

Yeeeeeeeeaaaaahhhh!!!

I finally got my master's degree!

Today is my graduation. I am happy, but sad!

There are no parents, nor husband here. There's only Clarence!

That's fine! That's enough for me!

Oh yea! There's Mike and my other friends too! I met them, we congratulated each other, and hugged each other.

Mike... Yes, she is now with Shirley, I am very happy to hear that. I was so happy to hear their togetherness.

We talked, and laughed happily here, but... Believe me, there is something lacking in my heart.

*********************

"Auntie must be so happy to see you!" Clarence was very excited while driving.

"Yes, definitely! I haven't seen him in a long time! Aaaahhh... I really miss him." I said

"Yeahh! Me too!"

We finally got to Aunt Margaret's house! You know, auntie was so happy to see us coming! He ran when he approached us!

"Ooohhh... You kept your promise..." Aunt hugged me tight!

"I miss you too, bi!" Answer me

"Heeeyy, wait a minute! Are you really Elle?" Aunty watched me from the tip of the foot to the tip of the head! Just like the first time we met

"Oh my aunt... That's right!" My whine!

We all laughed happily.

Wait a minute, there's someone there!

He looks the same age as me! His face was very handsome, his body was tall, he was watching us from earlier

"Aaahh, come in quickly! My son Matthew is inside!" Auntie immediately took us inside.

Clarence seemed uncomfortable hearing Matthew's name.

When we were in front of Aunt Margaret's house, my aunt introduced me to the man who had been staring at us

"Aaahhh, Elle, this is Matthew, Matthew, this is Elle!" Aunt Margaret said excitedly!

Matthew and I introduced each other. Clarence really did look sick of seeing this scene.

"Yo, bro! How are you!" Matthew patted Clarence on the shoulder

"Ah, I'm healthy and handsome!" Clarence replied in a lazy tone, and we all laughed.

*******************

"Matthew's only a week away from being here, so after that, I'll be back alone." Aunty looked sad, as she said that to the three of us, in the dining room

"Mom, I'll be back once my job's done." Matthew clasped his mother's hand, then aunt Margaret looked at his face, and smiled

"Bi, there will be two of us who will accompany you!" Clarence protested

"really?" Auntie looks excited again

"Why 2 Weeks?" Auntie looks protested

"You mean?" Clarence looked astonished

"Why not forever!" Aunt looks sad

"Bi, I have to go back to Indonesia. There are some files I need to take care of." I explained, aunt looks sad

"3 months with you that time alone, it felt so quick for me, let alone just..."

"You've been here before, Elle?" Matthew suddenly interrupted aunt's words

"Yes, I brought him here." Clarence immediately replied

"I asked Elle why you said it!" Matthew Protest

"You'll get the same answer from him!" Clarence returned

"Heeey... Already, let's continue this dinner!" Aunt calming.

*********************

"What's your next plan?" Clarence.

We both sat on the front porch of Aunt Margaret's house. It's so cold, and beautiful! I always liked this kind of atmosphere.

"I'm going back to Indonesia, meeting my parents for some time, then sending emails to some companies in Germany. And take a short vacation in Indonesia, while waiting for a reply from the company." Answer me

"Why Germany?" Look at Clarence

"Don't I ever say I want to continue living in a country where Young Joon and I are not connected?" I looked at Clarence's face.

"Aahhhhhhhhhh... That's..."

Suddenly Matthew came...

"Heeeyy, aren't you sleeping yet?" Matthew said, then sat down between us.

Clarence seemed upset to see his cousin.

"What are you doing here!" Ketus Clarence

"Of course enjoy the night atmosphere in my childhood home! Especially!" Matthew seemed troubled by Clarence's words

"Ciiisssat...." Clarence looked fed up

"Heeeyy! What's your problem!" Matthew seemed annoyed at the treatment of his cousin's sister

"All right, it's night. I slept first, yeah." My words then rushed to leave them, who were still arguing.

***********************

In this room, the room where I once ran, avoiding the man who had been my husband.

I still feel the atmosphere of sadness here.

I still vividly remember the pain I had for months, recalling the memories of our marriage. And it repeated...

My chest is in pain.

I miss that guy...

How's it going now?

Is his body still thin?

Did he shave his hair? How's the feather on his face?

Has he cut everything?

I haven't forgotten it, not at all! I still vividly remember how he rested at my feet, and asked me not to go...

I still think about it, no matter how much pain he gives me.

I always remember it! 

These few months, it's been very painful. My heart always expected us to return like we used to, but my body actually rejected it so strongly! What am I supposed to do? This miss is so torturing to me! Really torturing me!

I grabbed my phone, and intended to open my social media.

After my social media was open, I saw some of my friends' posts on social media.

It was still about our graduation yesterday.

And as I scroll down, I see the posts of one of my social media friends.

It's Nataschya!

I didn't actually know her, we'd never even met before, we'd just connect on social media, and say hello there a few times.

I also saw Nataschya always responding to every post Young Joon made on my social media. However, there was someone who seemed familiar to be with him in the portrait.

I seem to know the man sitting next to her!

In the caption of the photo, Nataschya wrote...

'Welcome back, bro!'

Park Young Joon's!

He looks so happy there.

His body was already more contained, even more fat than when he was still my husband.

His face is so happy!

His smile truly exuded happiness.

My eyes glazed over seeing it.

I don't think I need to think about it anymore!

He looks so happy there.

Suddenly there was an incoming message in the message icon, I immediately pressed the message icon, ah! That's Arjuna

Arjuna: are you online again, Jen?

Arjuna greeted me, I immediately replied

Jenny Lie :yes, jun

Arjuna: how are you?

Jenny Lie: the sauce

Arjuna: what do you mean?

Jenny Lie: I'm divorced from my ex!

Jenny Lie: later, back indo gw storyain all, yes!

Arjuna: ah ok!

Jenny Lie : ywdh, I slept beauty first, yes!

Arjuna: okay, sweet dreams.

Then I pressed the exit button, then turned off my phone
