Our Story: The Sudden Chancellery
24. I Less What?

Gala's life changed completely after the departure of Gemma who completely disappeared without a trace.

Friendship, love, life, everything falls apart because of his own actions. If time could be repeated, he would definitely be together with Febri and would not let Gemma go without saying goodbye like this.

Reportedly, Mitha managed to find Gemma, but the woman rejected firmly Erika's guess that said that she, most likely something bad happened.

Mitha even showed CCTV evidence at the hotel, which showed that Gemma was dragged forcibly by the man who is now her husband into one of the hotel rooms in Bogor, as per the information Erika and Niko who saw them there the other day.

But strangely, Gemma defends her husband and even begs Mitha to stop the legal path she wants to take to get the girl out of the man's trap.

And reportedly, the man now forbids meeting with his mother again. And Gemma just resigned without fighting back. Isn't meeting your mother an opportunity you always look forward to? Why change now?

The whole question frustrated Gala and made her lose her way. In just one month, Gala's physique had become thin, her face had become thin, the clothes she had were all loosened, and she was like an undead.

All because he couldn't contact or find where Gemma was.

“Come along, his schedule to the psychologist!” mona's orders immediately attract Gala, who seems to be obedient, to the practice of the psychologist used by her family. Gala remembered, she had been here after their Mama's death.

“Welcome to Mas Gala,” said Farah Nafira, the psychologist who has handled and became a family friend of Aditya for many years.

Session after session was done Gala that day, and the results were quite relieved.

“Where have I been all this time? If there is no improvement, do you need to take medicine?” asked Gala who forced herself to ask with her flat face.

“Therapy is enough. Just follow a regular schedule. And remember, this is also from yourself, Gala. I'm sure you can get through all this. And you're not alone, there's me, Mona, your friends. Don't push them away. You need them.”

They needed them, and Gemma, the inner Gala who came out of Farah's space without saying a word.

The man came out of Farah's room with no energy. He stared intently at Farah's practice, which also doubles as the middle-aged psychologist's residence.

Not many people come here. In addition to being quite expensive, he also did not receive many patients because at this time, he also concurrently became a lecturer at a campus in Jakarta.

He slowly walked down the short corridor, but then came to a halt. As his eyes fell upon a human figure who walked into the same corridor, alone.

Instantly his entire grief collapsed, the walls he had installed he had torn down all of them without leaving a single inch behind.

“What are you doing here?” asked Gemma who was as surprised as Gala.

“What are you doing here?” gala asked with eyes still glaring at Gemma.

“I'd like to see Bu Farah.”

“What do you want to see him for?”

“Not your business!” gemma replied avoiding Gala's gaze.

“Why, Gem? Does your husband like to flirt with you?”

Gemma had not yet responded, the man's feet moved without being ordered to embrace a thin, thin-faced body with green eyes.

Oh, how Gala misses him!

“Gala ... release me!”

...***...

“My answer, does he like to play rough with you? Until you have to go to an all-psychologist?”

Gala takes Gemma to an existing warehouse right in the building behind Farah's house, which can be reached through the same corridor.

“It's none of your business!”

“He must have hurt you, right? I can see from your eyes. you’re a bad wild, honey.”.

“You haven't answered!”

“Not to wonder my personal thing!” his Gemma does not like.

“Means true. You were hurt by him! Stay with him, Gem! I can make you happy!”

“Stop!” said Gemma while pushing Gala before she drifted deeper.

Gala released her hand from Gemma who was looking at her with a complicated expression.

“Why now do you ask me to release you? Didn't you beg?"

“I'm already someone's wife! You're crazy if you think I still like you!” hiss Gemma rose, holding her voice so as not to hear anyone who might be outside at this time.

“You still love me, right? I'm sure it is. Your eyes can't lie!”

Gemma looks confused. When her common sense returned, she tried to break away and pushed Gala away until she took a step back.

And she suddenly cried.

“Please .. I can't .. I'm please stay away from me!”

Seeing the begging cry from Gemma, Gala rewinded her body, looking at Gemma intently.

“Now you pretend you don't. What do you want anyway?”

With the back of his hand, Gemma wiped away the damn tears that flooded in. “You want to know, first what I want?! When I heard Dad wanted to mate me with someone else, I immediately ran to you.

I don't even care if my future is a mess, what matters is that I'm the same as you! I've tried to stay by your side with all your changing attitudes. But you keep pushing me away without love I have the opportunity to tell you all my burdens ..”

Gemma took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. “But it has passed ... it is the past .. not worth remembering!”

Gala was silent for a moment hearing. There was a glimmer of regret that came back. “What makes us unable to be together again, huh?!”

“I'm married, Gala. Accept that!”

Gala grinned and then chuckled softly, she still underestimated Gemma's marriage. “Still able to divorce, right?”

Gemma looked at him bitterly. Her tears dripped even more profusely without breaking her longing gaze at Gala. “You think it's easy?”

Gala's face turned hardened and was so confident. He held Gemma's hand.

“Easy! Stay with him, come with me to Aussie! We can start a new life there. We can both go to college, work, live together! I can love what he can't love you!

Or do you want us to marry? Whatever it is.. origin..” Gala gulped her saliva. Thinking about everything he wanted to say, while his egocentric side was always pulling him back.

“Originally you don't leave me again.”

Gemma's heart throbbed violently. He had not expected Gala to plead like this, but reality so strongly slapped him and returned him to reality.

Heavily, he was forced to abandon all his dreams of his future, as well as his friendship with this guy.

“Gala .. If so, maybe I can be with you. But now I can't.”

“What makes you unable?! I'm less what? I'm rich, Gem! All the girls at school, I can meet them if I shoot them! Say it! Tell me what is less than ak—“

“I'm pregnant .. three weeks ..”
