Secrets of Marriage
David's Longing

Novia is still sitting in the living room, the time has shown at 08:00 pm, Vio seems to have slept in the room accompanied by Mbak Darmi, since in this new house, Vio sleeps faster, Vio is more, as her toys are limited, and her space is also limited, she must learn to adjust to the conditions in this new home.

Reno also has not returned home, but he left since this morning, last Novia contacted Reno he said he wanted Reno still involved in talks with some friends in Jakarta.

An online taxi suddenly stopped right in front of the house, Novia hurriedly opened the door and sure enough, Reno appeared to get off the taxi online, Novia immediately opened the fence of the house.

"Mas Reno just got home? how was it that night?" ask Novia.

"Today I had a lot of conversations with friends, exchanging thoughts and experiences until I forgot about time!" reno replied as he threw his body on the bench in the living room.

"Mas Reno has eaten yet, If I haven't eaten yet, I'm with you!" ask Novia.

"Yes, I haven't had time to eat, just now after I finished I immediately rush to order a taxi and go straight home here!" answer Reno.

"Well, let's eat first, let's go to the dinner table and talk!" take Novia who then immediately pulls Reno's hand and walks to the dining table.

Novia then took the dishes and food that had been prepared for Reno.

Then Novia also took food for herself, because she accidentally did not eat it with Vio and Mbak Darmi, because she waited for Reno to come home. They ate together while chatting.

"So what's Reno's next plan?" ask Novia.

"My friend offers an investment business, but the capital is also not small, I was thinking whether I accept the business offer or not!" answer Reno.

"Mas, As far as I know the investment business is like we play gambling, if profit Yes profit a lot, but if we lose we will lose, especially by using large capital, if we have a lot of money, I don't think now is the time to think about such a business!" novia.

"Yes I also thought so, so I did not immediately agree to their offer, But honestly I was confused about where to start a business, especially the debts have not been paid off and the assets have also been sold out!" said Reno.

"Have Mas, after this Mas Reno just rest, tomorrow I want to take Reno to a new school, quite a school not too far away, can walk from here!" novia.

"Oh yeah? thankfully then, let Reno also have new friends, so she has activities and activities that make her heart happy!" answer Reno.

"From tomorrow I and Mbak Darmi have also started selling rice and cooked side dishes in front of the house, quite Mas for our daily lives, besides I do it with pleasure, to socialize with the people around here!" novia.

"I'm sorry Novia, you shouldn't have to work to make money! If I were like I used to be, having a lot of money I would never let you work!" reno.

"Working is good Mas Reno, it trains my independence and responsibility, take the positives do not be too protracted with the past, already yuk us into the room, the day is getting night!" said Novia while cleaning their used dining table.

They then walked towards their room, Reno threw her body on the bed, it felt like she was so tired.

That morning at his residence, after the completion of the morning exercise, David floated his gaze to Reno's now empty house.

Usually David always saw there was warmth in the house, the house was always crowded, especially when they used to exercise often morning together, when Silvi was still alive, but now everything just vanished as if swallowed by the Earth.

David let out a long sigh, Now he felt lonely no more babbling Vio who called him from the house next door.

For some reason as if David's spirit had been lost, he felt like there was no more passion to look at tomorrow, although now his efforts are increasing, he said, and even now he has hired some people to help his business.

But deep down, there is a deep sense of loneliness, David seemed to lose grip on life, lose the spirit of life, even the purpose of life.

Some people seem to enter his house that is wide open, they all work to help David develop his online business.

As David sat down on the porch, he kept looking next to the empty house, he started to think what to do, David felt his life was so lonely without seeing Novia coming in and out or Vio's babbles calling him.

Soon, a large truck comes to a stop right in front of Reno's empty house.

Then followed by a private car in the back of the truck.

It turned out that the person who bought Reno's house was going to move in today to that house.

Reno stood up and walked out of the gate of his house, approaching people who had started dropping things from inside the truck.

A woman got out of the car while guiding a toddler-aged child.

David was stunned to see the woman, the woman's face reminded him of someone.

"Silvy! Silvie! You're Silvi!" Call David while looking at the woman who looks surprised to see him.

"Silvy? I'm not Silvi Pak, I'm Shinta Candidate Resident of that house!" the woman who was named Shinta answered.

"Oh sorry, I was wrong!" said David.

"It's okay sir, then I go in first!" said Shinta who then went straight into the new house.

David Masih Standing glued to his place, staring at Shinta's departure, the face and voice reminded him of Silvi.

There was a sudden longing for Silvi, his late wife who was separated by death.

Although David's love for Silvi is not as deep as his love for Novia, Silvi is a woman who accompanies his days though not for long.

But unfortunately, Silvi has to go ahead of David because of his illness, and what is more impressed in David's heart is that Silvi goes in a state she loves David and is faithful until the end of her life.

Finally, with a barren step, David walked towards his house and entered the house. Some of his employees were busy packing things, putting labels on them and monitoring computer screens.

David began to monitor the work of his employees.

****

David threw his body on the sofa while turning on the television, so that the house is not too quiet.

The employees seem to come home only after they finish their work.

This is the daily life of David, he was always struck by loneliness, especially now that there is no more Vio next door or Novia who once helped him work. Half his soul seemed to be lost in the earth

Ting ... Kegs

Suddenly a bell rang out from the front gate of David's house, with reluctance Davin got up and stepped towards the front gate of his house.

"Good night sir, this is a little food for you, I happen to have more!" said a woman who turned out to be Shinta, the new occupant next door to her house.

"It's okay sir, besides I'm new here, don't know anyone else let alone this complex looks so lonely!" shinta.

"Then go in first Ma'am, chat for a while on the terrace!" take David.

Sinta nodded her head After that they walked towards the front porch of the house and began to sit on the porch bench.

"So you live alone in this house?" ask Shinta.

"Yes, my wife is dead, now I live here alone!" answer David.

"We have a story that almost looks like Sir, my husband also recently died, because in our old house so many memories, so I had to move to forget all those memories!" said Sinta.

"Oh, so Sinta's mom is a widow too huh? Yes, I understand that sometimes people have to forget something by moving in order to move on!" said David.

"Yes sir is right, especially in my old house My son kept asking his father, so I quickly moved to the house I bought this!" shinta.

"I also have a son, but he was not born from my wife's womb, but from an illicit relationship in my past, along with the woman I once loved so much!" said David.

"Oh yeah? really Sir? I didn't think you had such a unique story!" sahut Sinta's.

"But now the woman has a family and our son is with them, they're a happy little family, and I can't possibly bother them!" said David.

"I can feel, I'm sure you are very heavy, but we never know the fate of Sir, sometimes fate seems to play us, but strangely he always has a good purpose!" shinta.

"Yes you're right mbak, now I'm resigned to fate, which will take me where!" murmured David.

"It's late sir, I'm saying yes sir, I'm afraid my son woke up and looked for me!" pamit Sinta who then immediately stood up from his place.

"Yes, please Ma'am, thank you for the food, later after this I will eat immediately!" david answered who stood up and delivered Sinta to the gate of his house.

This morning in front of the new Novia house, there were several people crowded, because this morning was the first time they sold in front of the house.

Novia is good at making Marketing strategies, before she started trading first she made banners and brochures that will be spread around the area of their homes, to attract customers, until this morning They look overwhelmed.

"Well, our food is running out, ma'am!" exclaim Novia was happy when she saw some leftovers, because today they sell Best Selling Sweet.

"Yes Ya Bu, did not expect this serame, fortunately yesterday the mother made a leaflet if here selling food!" replied Madam Darmi.

"Yes dong Mbak, this is the name of Promotion, otherwise this is what people know!" sahut Novia's.

"The rice still has ma'am?" ask a mother who is carrying her child, while other mothers have been seen disbanding regularly.

"There's one more serving!" answer Novia.

"It's okay, one portion is wrapped, and then the leftovers of cooked food I just buy ya, let the rest is also okay!" said the mother.

"Ready, Wait a minute, Mom!" said Novia.

Madam Darmi then began to prepare the order, assisted by Novia who wrapped some of the cooked side dishes that were still left on the table.

"When the first time to sell, Mom, it's been so crowded, later on the store Mom went viral!"said mother earlier.

"Yes just a coincidence maybe, the name if the new sale is curious people want to taste how it feels, hopefully tomorrow will remain the same!" answer Novia.

"This is the rice ma'am, everything is total to Rp25,000 along with the cooked side dishes!" mbak Darmi said as he handed the package to the mother.

"Thank you, that's the change just take me, Mana know tomorrow-tomorrow no more money, I can ask for a little!" said the mother.

"Oh thank you Mom, please just stop by, sometimes if indeed people need to eat do not have to buy using money, if indeed there is no money!" answer Novia.

The mother smiled then stepped away leaving Novia and Mbak Darmi whose hands were still busy cleaning up empty food places because they had sold out all.

"Mbak Darmi please wash all the dishes and furniture yes, I want to finish this table huh Ma'am!" said Novia.

"Yes Ma'am, I immediately clean up in the kitchen yes, so later if Vio comes home school is all neat!" mak Darmi replied, who immediately brought dirty dishes and furniture to the back.

While Novia was still cleaning the table and wiping it off, Reno suddenly walked over to Novia from the outside.

"Eh Mas Reno is back, today we trade in Best Selling Sweet Mas, there is not even any left at all! hopefully tomorrow will be so too!" said Novia enthusiastically.

"Yes good dong, just the first day is already a sweet sell! But there's more important news than that baby!" answer Reno.

"What's the important news?" ask Novia.

"So there was a lawyer who called me, he said, All the company's debts have been settled and the shares have returned to my name, it means I can return to manage the company!" answer Reno.

"Seriously Mas? how could it be?" tanya Novia was confused.

"I'm also surprised Nov, there seems to be someone helping behind this, but I don't know what the strategy is, 'cause that lawyer didn't say anything to me!" answer Reno.

"If later you manage your company again, then we will move again dong to Jakarta?" ask Novia.

"Yes, I don't want you to move again, don't know where destiny will take us, but for sure tomorrow I will go to Jakarta to sign an important letter!" answer Reno.

Novia was silent, she had just moved to this place, she had just started her business to sell food, but suddenly there was news of Reno's efforts suddenly becoming recovered instantly.

No matter where it came from all debts could be paid off even all assets have returned in Reno's name, it felt like this was unreasonable, and impossible to happen.

But Novia thinks that's destiny, often fate without talking but giving answers, fate gives surprises that are never unexpected.

"Novia, if indeed I will return to work managing my business in Jakarta, you want to stay here with Vio and Mbak Darmi or come with me again to move to Jakarta?" ask Reno.

"Mas Reno, as a wife wherever her husband goes, I must go with Mas Reno, it's okay to move house too, because togetherness is important above all else!" novia.

Reno hugged his wife's body tightly, promising in her heart she would never let go of Novia for anyone including David, because Reno will fight as much as possible to rise again from the downturn and welfare of his family.
