Roseta stood at the end of the room watching the various couples chatting and throwing smiles. Actually, there was Sarah next to him with a drinking glass in her hand. Regarding Bryna and Braga, Roseta has lost her two children since this morning Dera brought them, she said, the middle-aged woman will take care of her grandchildren. Even Roseta left alone without any sidecar. So horrid.
Some important people also did not escape the sight of Roseta, some have been mutually greeting with him. They even introduce each other to their partners. Not a few who invited Roseta to dance, but the woman refused subtly.
In the upper circles. Having children without a husband is not a thing to think about, nor is it a heavy subject that can bring down business opponents. So Roseta is very comfortable at the party of the conglomerates without fear of scorn even though not everyone knows about Roseta's condition.
"So, we're just here to stand around like fools, Roseta?"
"Then what do you want Sarah?"
"For a long time hanging out with you I'll be a spinster."
Roseta giggling. "Then follow my footsteps, stay with men in hotels, and produce twins, no need to get married."
"You're a pervert." Sarah menonyor Roseta's head without hesitation.
"I'm your boss, Sarah."
Shane rolled his eyeballs. "Not for tonight."
Roseta's silent. At the end of the day his mind ends up on Thro again. Roseta has tried to get used to it again in accordance with Theo's request so that the two do not reprimand each other. There's no turning back.
Wait for. Wait for.
What Roseta still expects Theo when the breakup is herself.
No. gabe. No. gabe.
Roseta sure. Theo and himself can to dispel each other's feelings. Even for eight years Roseta could live without Theo. This is not difficult.
"Roseta. Roseta. You here, called just shut up." Sarah whispered right in Roseta's ear.
"I'm sorry. There's a little bit of a distraction to my mind."
"It's okay. You're Mrs Roseta Marveen. Doesn't it? My name is David Pradjaja." The man of about thirty years of age reached out.
Roseta nodded and accepted the introductions. "Ah, right, I'm Roseta.”
"It's nice to meet you, madam. I am one of the charity auction organizers on several occasions attended by you. I can't believe I'm meeting you at this event."
"All right?" Roseta was a little angry. The reason is true Roseta often attended the auction for charity. Not unexpectedly there is also one of the committee that still poult with him.
"I'm very impressed with you. You are very generous helping disadvantaged children to lift their burden a little. I also heard you built a free hospital in some remote town."
"Ah, that's nothing sir. Just help a little. Don't overdo it." Roseta feels clumsy. It's not good to be too praised like this.
"You're exactly the same as Matheo Ranu Pandega. He is also like you, often charitable but very unwilling to be given praise, do you know him?"
"Matheo, ten-of course, I know him a little, Doesn't this party belong to the Pandega family?"
David scratched his clumsy neck. "yes too. Excuse me. I seem so stupid."
"No, you're not stupid."
Both awkward. This discussion is not important. But Roseta can not ignore, later considered arrogant.
Roseta follows the direction pointed by David. There, Theo was talking to a beautiful woman, Theo laughed out loud. Likewise with the interlocutor. Valerie Jane Rubby. Roseta knows the woman, no, no, Roseta only knows because Theo and Valerie were friends in college. But. About getting engaged. Is it that fast?
"Roseta. You okay?"
"home."
"Huh?"
"Sarah, let's go home. Take me home."
...****************...
Along the way, Roseta was only silent until Sarah repeatedly sighed on the right side.
Roseta's best friend is switching professions as a personal driver of her own intentions. It is true that Roseta spontaneously asked Sarah to drive home without thinking that her best friend still wanted to party. However, when he was outside the building, Roseta asked Sarag to go back in with herself who would go home alone, but unfortunately a thousand dear, dear, Sarah, who is very sensitive to the condition of Roseta's heart, currently chooses to follow the woman.
"Rose.." -...."
"Will I go to the hotel?"
"For what?"
"stay. The kids tonight are going to be with her grandmother, so I want to be alone in the hotel. Don't ask too many questions. Put me down at the hotel ahead."
Roseta doesn't want to start a conversation about what just happened, with Shane, or even if it's not with the woman and nobody, she just wants to be alone.
With a dress still adhering to the beautiful that unfortunately is not worn full in the feel of the party, Roseta is dropped by Sarah at her request in one of the hotels that, yes, looks very decent.
"Can I come?" Raut Sarah asked to be clear, very clearly wanted to be approved.
Roseta smiled as she shook her head before fully closing the car door from the outside leaving Sarah alone, waving for a moment and walking up to her back unseen.
The room of the hotel room is so quiet that Roseta is very safe, and comfortable. The woman was completely relieved to avoid reality….
Roseta is not a very strong woman, nor a woman who is too patient to shed tears. When seen, flash back, the woman always misses, misses and misses Theo even though she knows she has been hurt. Often hiding behind blankets just to mourn Theo, calling the man's name until a sobbing mixed with longing sounds is heard in it.
Roseta knows, well, that she is as stupid as it is to love, but is as determined as it is to leave with painful consequences.
Until where Roseta found the most comfortable place, lay the body until it can shed the tears that he had been enduring since. While squeezing the chest that had difficulty breathing up to the throat that was also roaring in pain, Roseta, the woman, was very sorry.
It turns out that unlike what was imagined, Theo forgot about it so quickly, the fact that makes Roseta so confused and dazed. Even during the party, Theo did not look at him even though the core event was not at the top until the remaining time was still so long.
The love word from Theo has evaporated into the air replaced with news Theo who or even going to have a second marriage with Valerie. Theo so easily replaced Roseta who had been settled and occupied the throne of his heart.
Come to think of it, isn't this Roseta's own hope?
That, Theo will quickly find new happiness after a long time living in the shadows. Roseta who chose to leave, then he did not have to bother to look for pieces of the puzzle that had just disappeared.
Roseta is sure she can do it.
But, why is it so difficult and it feels like he is trapped in the darkness alone like this?
