Meeting on the city bus
16.At the marriage residence

"So then you weren't because you caught me and Dara. But deliberately surprised me and Dara who......?"asked Arta who was ashamed of being caught.

But he was also grateful, so he did not do the same with his wife. If what happened to him and his wife, also happened to Dara. He could not imagine how broken Dara's heart was because of him.

"Because Yanto and I don't want to sin either. For letting you perverts here Ta, but I'm sorry."Aji replied, nodding by Yanto.

Arta looked at the two, with her confused face. Do not understand regret because what, what might not from the beginning before he peppered Dara or how.

"I'm sorry why?" asked Arta with her confused face.

"I should have called the people to raid you. And immediately married at that time, even if it is delayed at least tomorrow. You're not just gonna leave Dara. And from that day no one will be hurt and there will be treason."Replied Yanto, who regretted why it had only been thought of now.

Arta then recalled Dara's sweet face. And that made her shed her tears. Regret cannot change things. Rice has become porridge, it cannot be turned back into rice. So is his relationship with Dara who has been destroyed because of his stupidity.

Arta could no longer bear her heartache when she remembered Dara not wanting her to touch. I don't even want to look at his face and talk anymore. Or ask him for an explanation, it's because he's already carved a wound in his heart.

"You're just crying now. If you were going to chase Dara. You're not gonna feel all this. You should end a relationship well. Now all you have to do, don't you repeat it again with you hurting your wife. So that you live happily, no one else gets hurt." Yanto.

Arta said nothing, but thought. What Yanto said is true, what else is his wife is pregnant. Although he still doubted it, he would not hurt his wife. Whatever happens in the future, he will accept. Even though the child in the birth of his wife is not his biological child. He will be treated and accepted as his own biological child.

...****************...

Dara cried as she pleased along the road to the new market. Looking for a city bus stop, to go home to her employer. It was unexpected that today was the last day to see and hear Arta's voice.

Dara was sitting at the stop, there were some people who were staring at her. Some are pitying, some are talking about him.

"The chick cried until so what happened roughly yes." Noisy at his friend.

"What else if not heartbroken, because his girlfriend broke up." Reply to the other.

"When she's beautiful, cute, how can her boyfriend mutusin." Said again.

"It's possible that her boyfriend has a girl prettier than her." He said, who was answered with a nod.

There are new mothers coming, Dudu next to Dara. Dara had not cried like it had come. because she heard herself being talked about.

"Dek's crying, huh?" asked the mother, Dara just nodded. And still heard the rest of her crying.

"Indeed why? What broke up with her boyfriend?" asked the mother, making the others look at Dara. Because I want to know the truth, if the girl is beautiful.

"It's not in the breakup ma'am, the plan is next month marriage. But he even married another girl, I met earlier. But he didn't say anything to me. Because I was annoyed I had never been without wanting to listen to what the reason was. For me free ma'am, can't change anything. What exists will make things worse. What's more now that he's a man's husband, I as a woman don't want to share either."Dara answered her story about her love.

"Oh in the marriage residence."Say that earlier.

"That's a nice deck, you as a woman should have a stand. Don't be trample on a man like that. But you know where she got married?"mother asked, curious too.

"Friends and her best friend ma'am, who thought I was married to her. Because there was a job and he got married suddenly. Then his best friend called him to come. When he came to act like I was nobody. I also came to ask her for her certainty. When will he come to the village with his family. To apply at the same time determine the wedding date. After knowing the answer he asked his friend. I knew there was no way I could ruin the marriage. Let me give up, maybe this is better. Rather than after marriage and having offspring, just know the dagger." Dara's story to that mother and the others.

"That's the deck, hopefully you'll get the better of him."Said the mother while rubbing Dara's back.

"Yes, I agree with you, the man who was bej*t and br*hngk that will never change. Thank goodness you know now, if it's another year or two. The fate would be the same as my sister being a young widow."Said the beautiful woman who was not far from Dara, who came during the first new story.

Their conversation got there. Because the car waiting for the virgin has arrived. Then Dara pamit first than the others.

Arriving at his employer's house is almost maghrib so that from nothing to do. Take a shower and perform his duties as a Muslim. Then down, for dinner. Miss Risa and Mr. Jhon saw Dara who was flat and her eyes were not asking. Because they do not want to make Dara cry again, they can guess must have broken up with her boyfriend.

In the dorm room play the cassette, to listen to the song. His intention to let go of the tiredness in his heart, which was languishing for love. Fits so well with her love story, with the song she heard. So Dara drifted in the song, feeling as if it was her.

......................

I often try to forget you

But the heartache never faded

Let my wounds take care of themselves

The flower of love that you promised

Until I'm in your arms

I now realize that although it is too late

Let me bear this pain ...

Night without stars

There's only a rustling wind

pulling my hair

I must regret it

What happened is silent

My love has been tarnished ...

This heartbreak when I remember you

Only tears are silent witnesses in life

I don't know when I should live like this

No more friends where I complain and complain

Night without stars

There was only a slow wind

Swirled my hair

Should I regret

What has happened

My love has been tarnished ...

This heartbreak when I remember you

Only tears are silent witnesses in life

I don't know when I should live like this

No more friends where I complain and complain

This heartbreak when I remember you

Only tears are silent witnesses in life

I don't know when I should live like this

No more friends where I complain and complain

......................

After the song runs out Dara instantly turns off her music. Put yourself in a foam mattress measuring 100x200 cm. Crying in silence for fear of disturbing his employer and next-door neighbors.
