No one feels good when they are abandoned by someone they care about. It was like a part of them was gone and they felt a void in their hearts, a hole deep enough that no one could ever replace it, there was a pain they felt each time they recalled how painful it was. If possible, let time cease forever so that they do not part from their loved ones.
But destiny will go on. Meli must accept the fact that soon her in-laws will leave her for good, whether it happens, maybe a few minutes ahead, maybe the next hour or maybe the next day, maybe the next day, no one can guess when someone's death will come. By continuing to hold the hand of her in-laws who kept trying to catch their breath to survive, Meli gently touched her in-laws face while covering her mouth so that her cries could not be heard. It hurts not when someone has to try to look good when he knows that time with loved ones is just a little longer?
“Papa, if indeed being with Meli is too painful for papa. Papa can leave Meli, because Meli knows, God loves you more than Meli”, he whispered to his in-laws.
If only Meli had a choice between maintaining or releasing, Meli would have preferred to maintain. But if his decision to defend the more tormented his loved ones, wouldn't it be better to let go?. Like clasping a rope with both hands, he tried to hold his in-laws to stay with him, pulling him with all his might to get him back. But Meli realized, the more attractive she was, the more tortured her in-laws, she was also tormented by the pain she felt. Until finally, he let it go. Meli let go of her in-laws, the rope she held tightly, she just let go.
Mr. Rudy opened his eyes as Meli whispered those words to him, trying to catch his breath with all his might, he smiled. Along with the remaining energy, Mr. Rudy tried to touch Meli's face even with a trembling hand and he nodded his head. Suddenly Mr. Rudy closed his eyes and his hands fell, that's when Meli knew that the mertunya was no longer with him. He was crying, very sad, very sick like an arrow stuck right in his heart.
“Papa... Forgive Meli.. Forgive Meli who can not give her best as long as papa liv”, regretted while crying.
Long enough to see her in-laws who had been asleep for good, Meli again clasped her lifeless hand-in-law and stuck it on her face while staring at her in-laws with tearful eyes.
“Thank you for what you did to Meli, until whenever papa is papa Meli and Meli is the son of papa. Rest in peace, papa. Starting from here, Meli will walk without papa”, he said, then kissed his forehead and left tears on his forehead.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
At least with me by my best friend's side, he'll feel a little better even if I know my existence doesn't change anything. The departure of a person is a new beginning for those who are left behind, since his in-laws left him alone, the company has fully become the property of Meli, all property of Mr. Rudy, he gave it entirely to Meli.
Time went on and it didn't feel like ten years had passed. With the dress I was wearing I looked at myself as I sat at my dresser, looking at the few wrinkles that began to appear at my age of forty-three years, I smiled.
Sam came and hugged me from behind and tainted my head, now that I knew that I had aged with the right man, I had been through a lot with Sam both joy and sorrow.
“I don't see any aging, all I see is a very beautiful woman. You haven't changed a bit since we married Rein”, Sam said and hugged me..
“Do not tease me, it is no longer appropriate for you to tell me”, I blushed in shame.
“Why? That's reality. You are still very beautiful, wrinkles as much as anything can not cover your beautiful face. Ready already? Let's go”, reply Sam.
Tonight is a very important night for me and for Sam, tonight we will celebrate twenty-two years of our marriage. I don't know how else I should express my happy feelings. Sam, the man who always accompanied me and I am grateful because until now he still remains with me and accompanies me. This beautiful night we spent alone and left Mira and Grace at home.
With the candle lit, we started our romantic dinner, we danced and enjoyed both tonight. I rested my head on Sam's body which still felt very dense, this man really did not change. Even just by leaning my head alone he could make my heart beat quite fast.
“Conscious Rein, why are you pounding while resting your head on your husband's body? Isn't this your usual thing to do?”, I said in my heart.
Sam was able to make me comfortable and calm with just his embrace, about making me flutter and misbehavior? He was an expert, I don't know how many times he was able to shake my heart and now he's doing it again.
“Looks like you enjoyed tonight, should we kill tonight together? I'll book a hotel room for us. Spend the night with me”, Sam said with a sharp look and a seductive smile.
Again I was entangled by his words, again he ruled me with his words and his gaze. My body seemed to be sculpting and I couldn't take my gaze away from him, I didn't expect even though his body was aging but his skill of teasing didn't disappear in the slightest.
“Oh Lord, why is my husband so perfect and charming?. He always managed to make me fall in love every day”, I said stuck in his gaze.
Sam brought his face closer to me and I subconsciously closed my eyes because I knew what he was going to do to me. Sam kissed me, slowly I fell into his game which is now totally overpowering me. Will we do it this time? Ah, it feels like my body doesn't want to reject it.I feel love in every kiss, my body is getting heated up and I hope tonight passes very slowly.
