Not Just Married
Don't wanna tell him
"Mom, is it okay that Mama lives alone?" Hana seemed hesitant to leave for her campus this morning. What's more seeing the condition of Mama who seems still not okay.
Mama Rita smiled and stroked Hana's hair. "Mama is okay. Go Hana. It's been three days that you didn't come to college. There must be a lot of business you've left for Mama."
Hana's speechless. Her mother was right. A few days not to the campus made it too late to submit the results of the script improvement to his supervisor.
"Is Mama right?" Hana is still hesitating.
"Mama's fine. Go so you can finish your business on campus sooner." Hana clasped her hand to convince Hana.
Hana was silent and thought. "All right then. But Mama has to promise to call Hana if Mama needs Hana."
Mama Rita nodded reassuring her daughter. After making sure everything her mother needed was in the room, Hana also said goodbye to go to the campus.
"I must hurry back to accompany Mama." Hana muttered as her motorbike was already speeding on the highway. Hana also increased the speed of the motorbike to quickly reach the campus.

"It's a good thing these three days that I'm out of town so I don't have to look for excuses for not coming to campus." Hana took a long breath. His feet stepped through the campus corridor.
"Hana.." the sound of someone shouting her name made Hana turn her gaze to the source of the voice.
"Amel?" Hana developed her smile seeing Amel running towards her.
"Hana..." Amel bumped into Hana's body and hugged her tightly. "I'm so worried about you." Lirih Amel's.
Hannah stroked her best friend's back. "Calm down. I'm okay." Reply Hana.
Amel broke his embrace and shook his head. "You're not okay, Hana."
Hana smiled back. Again he tried to lie to his best friend who clearly could know his lie.
"Can't you talk about it here?" Hana turned her gaze to their friends who were walking towards them.
"Hana..." Amel hugged Hana's body for a moment. "How's Mama doing?" Amel's face looked worried.
Hana down. "Mama's not okay." Hana's voice sounded weak. "Mama's very devastated to lose Papa." Hana continued with trembling lips.
Amel sighed for a moment. "Mama's a strong woman. Mama can definitely get through this with you." Amel took Hana's body into his arms.
Hana's tears are flowing. "I also deeply destroyed Amel. But I can't show my destruction to Mama. Who else would strengthen Mama if not me." Hana returned Amel's embrace tightly.
Amel stroked Hana's trembling back. Hana is very difficult to hide her pain in her best friend.
"You must be strong for Mama Rita's sake, Hana. Don't feel alone, there's me and Anin who will always support you."
Hana broke their embrace. "Thank you Amel. I really didn't expect Papa to do such a thing." Hana covered her wet face.
"Don't talk about it again if it'll hurt you, Hana." Amel stroked Hana's shoulder.
Hana nodded. Removing his hand from his face then letting out a long breath. "I have to go to my guide and go home. I can't leave Mama for long." Hana wiped away the tears that soaked her face with her index finger.
"Hana." Amel held Hana's arm as Hana was about to leave.
"What's wrong?" Ask Hana.
"Dika already know all this?"
Hana shakes. "I haven't told him yet and don't want to tell him about this." Lirih Hana's.
