SECRET MAURA
Season 2: (PNS) Disappointment of Ardian
Ardian daydream split when he was called by Mr. Kyai, he immediately rushed to the hospital with Maura's goods, there he was awaited by several police who came to take care of the 'accident' which befell Maura.
"Who? You are her husband! Geez I almost forgot you guys, I'm sorry!" said one of the officers.
He was the police officer who took care of Vera's case and his sister's case at the time, and he was also the officer whom Mr. Kyai was talking about.
"If this trouble befalls you, I don't want to believe it. Because I know who you are, because the previous case also involved you two. For the general public, and also police officers like us this would never believe without evidence and witnesses, because every problem there must be evidence, there is a suspect 'real' her. Because we can't catch the 'ghost..
So, we will follow the advice of Mr. Kyai as the person in charge of this case. And we're waiting for the patient to be aware first, and then we can develop this case." said the officer.
"Yes, thank you for coming and trusting us.. And I'm sorry that I cleaned it, because I couldn't bear to see the blood splattered in the room, but I recorded it before and took some pictures for you to check.
Sorry, not to get ahead of you. I have to do it, otherwise his blood will invite the other creatures to come closer to our house. I don't want our house to be a den of demons, I'm sorry." said Ardian, although the reason was absurd, but it was still acceptable to them considering who Ardian and Maura were.
"Did your wife perform a cult ritual? Sorry if my question is wearing you less, I have to follow the procedure as well." asked the officer.
"It's okay, I can understand.. My wife did perform a ritual without me knowing, I also just noticed it in more detail this morning the state of her room.
Last night I could not focus because I was too panicked to see his condition was already critical, so I did not pay too much attention to the place especially the state of the room was also dark only illuminated by a few candles only.." answer Ardian as soon as possible, as it is.
While in the question and answer examination, the nurse said that Maura was awake. Suddenly everything became relieved, Ardian immediately ran towards the room that was taking care of Maura.
"May, May it's me Ardian.. You can recognize me, right?" ardian asked worriedly and was also happy when he saw Maura was awake.
"Ardians.. Me, where am I? Why so many?" maura asked confusedly.
Indeed, at the time it was rumored that Maura was awake, Ardian and Mr. Kyai and police officers immediately came to see him. Not to mention the soldiers also wanted to see the condition of the Goddess.
"You're in the hospital, May.. I found you passed out bleeding, yeah.. Do not force yourself to remember everything that happened, rest first.. You just woke up from that long enough fainting, ", replied Ardian trying to remain patient and restrained, saying, though so many questions he wanted to ask about the ritual also included a change in his attitude during this time, he was sure this all had something to do.
"It's a good thing that you can go home safely, Maura." said Mr. Kyai, there was a hint of disappointment there, while the police only paid attention to him.
"Ardian, where are you going?" maura asked when she saw him about to leave from her side.
"I want to go out for a while, we will let you rest once more." replied Ardian with a gentle smile.
"Can you stay here for a while, I want you to accompany me for a moment." Maura pinta.
"Alright." said Ardian with a smile and sat back beside him.
While the others came out leaving the two of them, giving time to both. Maura still felt a hint of dizziness in her head, she grabbed Ardian's hand and hugged him, returning to sleep. She hugged Ardian's arm as if afraid of losing him.
Ardian looked at his wife's face, which seemed so exhausted, that even though he had just woken up from a critical moment, he was still exhausted, and chose to go back to sleep.
One thing that Ardian is grateful for, Maura begins to show signs that she is starting to need him again, so Ardian feels loved again by him.
.
While outside the room, Mr. Kyai noticed that there was something black foggy light surrounding Maura. And he was sure it didn't come when Maura came out of the 'place', but it was there before then, whether she appeared right after Maura performed the ritual or before that. He's not sure either.
After a while, Maura's condition was finally better than before. Although he still felt pain under his chest, his stab wound was deep enough that he was advised to rest completely.
"Already, Sir.. I'm sorry, I've done such a stupid deed that it troubles so many people, it's purely an accident caused by myself" Maura explained.
Even so, he still underwent a number of examinations including Ardian, because he was the first to find it. Maura did not expect that the consequences of his reckless actions would cause a problem for everyone.
After several hours of examination, Ardian went to Maura. He wanted to talk to her alone, heart to heart. I don't know why he felt that there was something that Maura had been covering up all this time.
"May, how are you feeling right now?" ask Ardian.
"Alhamdulillah, it's better. And it still hurts a little here, but I can still hold it.." Maura replied with a smile.
"I want to talk to you seriously, okay?" ask Ardian again.
"Speak, why are you so serious? To be honest, I got scared." Maura replied with a nervous feeling.
"No need to be afraid if there is nothing you need to keep from me." said Ardian while staring fixedly at Maura.
"May, may I know what you've been doing all this time? After marriage, you changed so much for me. Is this such a powerful magic influence that it could affect your attitude towards me? Did you do all these rituals to escape all that magic?" asked Ardian, he hoped Maura would agree to that question, he was afraid that Maura would change because of something else.
But his desire must make him disappointed, Maura actually shook her head when asked Ardian like that. He looked down lethargic, visible streaks of tears that began to drip on his cheeks.
"Did I make a mistake, so you're so mad at me?" ask Ardian again.
Long enough Maura was silent then she shook her head again, seeing that Ardian so sure there was something about her made Maura look disappointed and continued to be angry at him.
"Tell me, whatever my mistake is that you're so mad at me. Tell me everything you've been holding up all this time, I'll just quietly listen to everything quietly, talk.." Ardian said.
Maura cried even louder when she heard Ardian talk like that, Ardian just silently let Maura cry until she was satisfied, until she was relieved herself. Perhaps in this way Maura can release her own inner pressure and emotions.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." said Maura, sobbing.
"I've been so bad to you, I've done something I shouldn't have done! I'm sorry.." he said again, Ardian still with his promise will be silent to listen to all the stories and complaints Maura.
Finally with great effort and it felt so heavy when it came to honestly saying what was in his heart, Maura said everything. He honestly did not like the statement Ardian married her because he just wanted to protect and take care of her, not because of the basic name of love or want to live to death with her.
Although it sounds cliche and too dramatic, but he is able to keep and protect himself. But he couldn't live with people who didn't love him, especially after Maura found Ardian's journal records at the time.
Plus he felt so burdened with all these missions, he also felt like he was wasting his time doing all of this, and choosing a shortcut to end all of his missions quickly. And hope to finish quickly, so that he does not want to be a burden and shadow Ardian.
Hearing that all made Ardian really disappointed, he did not even expect when he saw Maura with Arga and Phoem the other day turned out to discuss the matter.
He could not hide his disappointment, he looked so angry but said nothing. He immediately got up from his seat and left Maura alone.
"Ardian, I'm sorry!" maura said before Ardian exited her inpatient room Maura.
He's going in no direction, his mind's raging. He felt unnecessary, useless. His steps continued to walk away from the place, ignoring all the calls of people and not caring about it all.
