Sharing Love: Winning Without Love
Just so you're Happy
Tama also had to swallow the bitter reality because his confession was rejected by Khaira. Sometimes indeed as long as we keep the feeling of like for others, still we will lose instantly to people who dare to go first to ask for it. That's how Tama was, the man chose to retreat even though his heart was hurting.
"I hope you're always happy, Khai. Truly pray for your happiness. And whoever your husband is I hope he will always make you happy. Because, if I'm not happy, I won't be happy either, Khai."
Khaira only smiled faintly at Tama's words. Deep in his heart, Khaira felt a void. Is that happy? In the past four months, his life has been empty, especially now in his house just hearing no human voice. Happiness has gone from Khaira's life since she married Radit.
"Thank you, Tama. I also hope your happiness yes," he said sincerely.
"I'll try to be happy, Khai. All right, Khaira, I'm going ya." Tama stood before Khaira who was still sitting, the man stretched out his hand, "happy always Khaira. Yea..." Tama left and he waved his hand to Khaira.
While Khaira was still staring at Tama's back, the man disappeared. After Tama is unseen, Khaira walks in and meets Metta who has been waiting for her in front of the library.
"Metta, sorry for a long time" he said when he was in front of Metta.
"Iya Khai, I'm lucky to be patient. So how's the front cafe?"
Khaira nodded, then the two girls walked towards the cafe in front of the main gate of their campus.
Khaira ordered fried rice and lemon tea, while Metta ordered Chicken Teriyaki and Melon Juice. While enjoying their meal, the two chatted together.
"So what did you say, Khai?" Metta could not wait to ask Khaira.
"Lo's guess is, Ta. I told you, he likes me."
Metta smiled broadly at Khaira, "that's really my feeling. I said what too. How are you going?"
"I must have refused. Yes, I married Ta. I can't play with fire behind my husband" he said firmly.
"So seriously, you're nolak Tama?"
Khaira nodded her head, "yes. I was also honest with him about my status when I got married. Lucky Tama's good, she even prayed for me to be happy and she wanted us to stay friends."
Metta was relieved, because her best friend had a firm stance. On campus alone no one can resist the charm of Tama. But, now in his presence, Khaira says that he rejects Tama.
"Lo cool Say", he said as he pointed his thumb. "Because you dare to speak the truth, yes even though I know Tama must be hurt. Lagian lo rush to get married anyway, if you are patient you can definitely dapetin Tama, Most Wanted in our campus."
Khaira laughed at Metta's endless talk, "Ngaco deh. Partly if my soul mate is my husband who wants Tama who shot me or the other, if it is not a mate will not happen, Ta. Everything is arranged with God. We're just going through it."
"Yes, really. I agree with you. Khai, can you ask me something, right?" tanyakanya.
"Hm, what do you want to ask?"
"Lo love is not the same as your husband, you guys will be betrothed. Not going out yet."
"Yes, I'm still learning Ta. Our marriage is still four months old too, still need to get to know each other as well."
Even in his mouth Khaira said he was learning, the fact that hating Khaira said otherwise. Her relationship with her husband was nothing more than a relationship between two strangers. Even now the two have not lived together for 2 weeks, it's all because Radit chose to live with Felly.

Meanwhile at one of the private banks, where Radit works. The man is focusing on verifying the entire bank opening. The work is quite heavy, but Radit is used to doing data verification even if he has to overtime.
In the last two weeks, Radit has been busy with a lot of work. Even he had to go home until late at night, especially the mileage where he worked until his home is now quite far away, making Radit have to leave early and go home more at night.
"Where are you, where's the verification going?" Tanya Dimas is also a fellow auditor with Radit.
"I still work. I hope it's over soon."
"Lately your face has been really tangled, Bro? Not as usual. Even now on a motorcycle? Where's your car?"
"I sold my car Bro, to buy housing even though it was just simple."
"Lo don't live with your parents anymore? Why the hell Bro, you don't work together Daddy you'll be better."
"Passion I ngaudit kayak gini, do not want to work together Dad. But I don't know what's going forward."
"Busy week nights no, no more yuk? I am ajakin Khaira again" said Dimas with enthusiasm.
Hearing Dimas mention Khaira's name, Radit realized that since he moved, he had never stayed at Khaira's house at all. But considering how Khaira had been indifferent to him, making Radit also feel indifferent. Suddenly Radit thinks of Khaira.
"Don't ajakin the wife of the person, the husband will sulk..," he said briefly.
"Where there is a husband cranky, if I am her husband I am certainly anterin where I go, I take care of it during nobar, not be let alone like that. What a guy who let his wife watch football alone, even though 9 pm is finished anyway. But the husband is obliged to take care of his wife."
Hearing Dimas' words, Radit suddenly felt slapped. Yes as a husband for Khaira, let alone guard, speak well he did not do it. Even now he had actually left Khaira for Felly. He was willing to sacrifice his wife to fight for the woman he loved. This time Radit felt that for four months, he had not taken care of Khaira at all. Not even trying to get to know the girl well. Radit's heart suddenly riled up to hear Dimas' words.
"Maybe her husband is just busy, so she's watching her own football." she said.
Dimas just shook his head, "Beautiful girl and as good as Khaira if not guarded really nyesel deh husband later, until a guy who dared to seize Khaira, surely her husband will be crazy. I guarantee you."
Radit shuddered in horror at Dimas' words. He soon figured out how to divert his conversation with Dimas. "Udah, let's continue to verify it so as not to overtime tonight. I am single, if I am not. The work! Don't talk about people's households."
But in his heart, Radit is making plans to visit Khaira at the weekend. "Hopefully the weekend is coming soon", Radit murmured inwardly.
