Cathy was waiting for Harumi in the lounge, laying herself down on the soft sofa while watching her favorite TV Show.
Before long Harumi came out while pulling her suitcase, she was ready even though Cathy realized her two best friend's eyes looked damp after getting out of the room long enough.
No need to ask questions about anything, it is certain that Harumi spends her time crying in her solitude.
Observing with sympathy and of course guilt, Cathy simply did not want to make Harumi wrong in choosing a move.
He just wants his best friend to be happy.
Harumi placed her suitcase next to the nightstand, then she approached Cathy and hugged her best friend tightly "Thank you, Cathy. Iam so sorry"
Cathy flinched, her eyes widened as Harumi gave a hug to say goodbye.
Both of his lips curved up, there was a hint of relief in his chest "Hey..You're always welcome here. Please, you need to be strong. Over time the feeling will disappear. Trust Me, Ok "The woman patted Harumi on the back, trying to strengthen her.
Harumi only briefly smiled even though it was almost painful, because now to smile it still feels sore "Didn't you work ?"
"It's still lunchtime, maybe I'll be back at the gallery soon"
At a glance Harumi nodded "Ok, I go first. See you's. "
Then Harumi turned around, taking her suitcase to her feet quickly closing the distance between herself and the door. Later then... Harumi left, leaving the apartment.
As soon as Harumi leaves, Cathy realizes, without a doubt, that she has made a mistake by forcing Harumi against what is in her heart.
At first glance Cathy remembers Harumi's words, that sometimes Never regret everything that has been done, but regret will come when we do nothing.
Everything Harumi said was right,
Cathy realized, Harumi felt that feeling. Love is not merely a momentary Obsession.
Harumi falls in love with Liam. It's true.
But...
He returns to Anton for the good of everyone and puts his feelings aside. And that's what he's doing now.
Giving Her Last Chance to Her Marriage.
It is the wisest action.
***
In the car, Harumi was silent and just threw a glance from behind the car window. Ever since he came down from Cathy's apartment, not a single word had come out of his lips.
His gaze was empty, his heart still felt squeezed by the many tentacles of the past.
"Rumi ?" call Anton
"Hmm." answered in short
Anton's eyes were fixed at the front while continuing to control the car, once in a while he looked to Harumi "Have you eaten ?"
Harumi closed her eyes tightly, then sighed. After a second, he replied "It's over"
"What were you doing in New York ? with Cathy ?" ask again
A sense of awkwardness ran strong between the two, and the feeling of unease continued to overwhelm their atmosphere at that moment.
Harumi's mind set the words and very carefully answered the question that the woman was actually avoiding "Walking around" the answers are short but there is a gaffe contained in them because Anton will surely ask questions continuously until he is satisfied.
"Surely you are too busy walking until you are very difficult to contact. Not even all of my short messages, none of which you reply "Anton asked in a raucous voice clearly heard to Harumi's ears.
Anton waited for an answer, looking as if it would take time.
Harumi's stomach churned "New York City is big, so you'll understand."
The woman took a sharp breath "On communication, I just want to focus on myself while here. I don't want to talk to you about anything. And there's nothing to discuss" he continued without taking his gaze away from Anton.
Anton grabbed his wife's hand and clasped her "Please stop fighting, Rumi"
Whether until when this will be passed Harumi throughout his life, maybe only the beginning of the pain is still very pronounced.
But, until when. Surely with the passage of time, the rest of this taste will disappear by itself.
It's probable.
Please, Lord, don't let this be a big mistake. Harumi had already made a mistake and she just wanted to choose the right move for her life.
Harumi opened her lips, but whatever she was about to say had evaporated from her lips. "Where are we ?"
Anton's eyes narrowed "To Ameera's house, did you forget ?"
With a flat expression, Harumi almost forgot one of her goals here was to visit Ameera. It's been days in New York, all he's done is spend time in the Penthouse. With her. It made him forget.
You're too stupid, Rumi. You're busy spending time with Liam. Arrrgghhh, wake up !!! Wake Up !!!
The woman blinked a few times clearing her mind.
Once remembering the name again crossed his mind, for a moment Harumi was stunned without a sound and forgot the presence of Anton who was now sitting next to him.
Focus.
Carefully, the woman stole a glance at her husband who was still focused on driving. And Anton no longer asks questions that make the nausea in Harumi's stomach churn.
The man's face was completely illegible as he returned the woman's gaze "What ?" anton was astonished
Harumi was half surprised then shrugged her shoulders "No"
He looked at Anton while a slanted grin slowly appeared on the man's lips. Eyebrows raised. "Are you watching me ?" godfather
Of everything Harumi expected Anton would say, this was not included in it. And it felt kind of funny, because he wasn't surprised Anton was acting so haughty.
Harumi instantly turned her face away with the same slanted grin "Don't be too confident"
The atmosphere that was previously very awkward between them, was now slowly melting by itself. Although not yet fully Harumi can accept this situation.
It all takes time.
***
Although it passes a few hours long enough, and must penetrate the density of the New York City highway. Finally they're in California, and soon to be at Ameera's house.
During the trip, Harumi fell asleep while leaning against the car window. His eyes were quite tired as Anton continued to drive their vehicle without stopping.
Because he wants to arrive at his sister's house soon.
Ameera and her husband and three children chose to live in California. Ameera does not work, she only focuses on taking care of her three children. While Robert Hardy, Ameera's husband works at one of the famous Brokerage Companies in America.
The married life of Ameera is very harmonious and perfect. In addition to having an adequate financial life, the two girls are very beautiful. Ameera was given one more gift: to give birth to a handsome baby boy.
Upon arrival at home, Harumi and Anton are greeted warmly by Ameera and her two daughters.
"Rumi, dear How are you ?" Ameera stepped out of the door after seeing Harumi's fresh presence coming out of the car looking impatient directly hugging her tightly.
Harumi is very welcome in the Anton family, her brother-in-law loves her very much. This is the first time Harumi has visited Ameera's house.
And the house is luxurious and comfortable, very clean for their little family. Ameera is very fond of plants, visible from the flower garden in her very well-maintained front yard.
"Well, we're going in" Ameera pulled Harumi's hand
Shortly after, his two daughters ran up to them happily "Hi Aunty Rumi. Nice to meet you" said Alana the eldest child who is now almost a teenager
