THE INCIDENT BEFORE THE WEDDING
Chapter 11's
Camelia could not go back to forgetting the events of that night, she sat on a chair with eyes so empty. Moreover, his meeting with Kala a few hours ago again gave a deep wound, Camelia was endlessly crying.
Sitting with a bent position both legs is a position where someone is feeling very deep sadness, "Why should I be God, why should Amel get this wound. And why that night should happen, why God. Why?" Her question repeated with tears that were unceasingly breaking.
The desire to kill himself also appeared, he was so eager to end his life. He pulled the handle of his nightstand, then brought a small knife of his. But when he was about to scratch the knife, Nani's figure opened the door to his room.
"What are you doing Mel?" Nani asked, Nani grabbed the knife and threw away the item. Then Nani hugged her, "Tell Aunt Mel, what happened?" said Nani while tightly hugging Camelia's body, she also looks to shed her tears.
"Amel was tired of this life Bi." Amel replied.
"All there is a cause Mel, tell me your burden so that you are not too heavy to bear it." Nani said back, Camelia shook her head
"No Aunty, Amel isn't ready yet" replied Camelia back.
"It's been a while, wait here don't do that anymore." Nani said back, He went and brought the small knife with the intention of keeping the item from Camelia. Then not long after, he brought a glass of water to Camelia. Nani tries to calm Camelia down, "Your mother is asleep, probably exhausted from cooking so much today." Nani said back.
"Don't say the thing you just saw to Mom, Amel doesn't want you to think about Amel" she said.
"Yes Mel. Aunty promised, you are no longer someone else but your own aunt's child, so if there's anything, say yes. Don't swallow it alone." He said to Camelia.
Camelia nodded her head, "Sometimes life is cruel Mel, Auntie also had time to do the same with Amel. instead aunt has almost hurt by severing this aunt's hand," He showed a scar on his left hand.
"Auntie did that why?" ask Camelia.
"When aunts are young, aunts often get scorn from those around.Even the person whose aunt Love left aunt for the sake of another woman, and that is also the cause of Auntie leaving the House.to date, even, Auntie doesn't know the fate of the old man in the village."
"Auntie came here as a result of bi's escape?" Ask Camelia.
"Yes, it's lucky that Auntie met your mother at the market. You were very small, and he offered to work here. She introduced aunt to Mom, and she's been working here for 15 or so years." Nani said, "That's why aunt is so dear to you and your mother, Auntie feels like a parent to Auntie and Aunt is so grateful for that." She rubbed her tears occasionally.
"Mel, Auntie knows your problem is very severe. And auntie feels this is not you, you are a jolly girl, even you are also very smart. Aunty saw that you were very weak lately, Aunt worried about you" Nani said as she rubbed the tip of her head and wiped Camelia's tears, "If you'd like, please, tell me your burden so Aunt can help you. Aunty loves you very much and does not want you to swallow the bitter taste alone." At the end, Camelia slightly nodded in doubt. Again and again, Camelia was not prepared to say what was going on to her.
"Amel was just desperate Bi, Amel missed the figure of the Father. Amel just wants to lean on the Father, hug the Father and say that Amel misses." he replied, Nani slightly widened her smile. He was not sure that Amel was telling him the truth at the moment, let alone that he had seen such a long distance between Camelia and Kala since the wedding.
And Nani thinks that something is going on between Camelia and Kala, considering that they were very close and she sees so unfortunately Kala to Camelia. Nani also thinks that Camelia's love is hindered by Kala's current status, and vice versa.
"Yes you've rested Mel, Auntie wants to enter the room first. If there's anything to say aunt Ya Mel, Auntie guarantees your mother a safe secret.Don't hesitate to ask for help or just tell a story, just assume Aunt is being your best friend." Nani said to Camelia, Camelia nodded slowly. Nani hugged Camelia again, rubbed her head and kissed her forehead then rushed out of Camelia's room.
Ting! a message came in Camelia's phone.
"Unblock Mel's Online messages, Mas wants an important phone." The message was given by Kala to Camelia through a text message on her phone, instead of her reply, Camelia was seen blocking back Kala's number so that Kala could not send and even call using her mobile phone.
Camelia rubbed her stomach, as if she knew she was pregnant. However, she did not want to prove her premonition, she was not ready and did not know what to do if it happened.
Camelia walked to the door of her room, then she locked it and turned off the light. In the dark, he curled his grief.he swallowed the bitterness of life only alone, he thought hard in order to recover his mental damaged by the events of that night.
Meanwhile, Kala was still sitting in front of his laptop. He thought hard to find out the situation Camelia, questions about the content of Camelia was not satisfied answered. Although Kala wanted it not to happen, but the premonition about it grew stronger when he heard Camelia who was impaired health lately.
Even her pale face showed that something was not going well with Camelia, "Mas.." Call Ninis.
"I've booked a ticket for two days" Ninis told Kala.
"Hm, yes dear." replied Kala back.
"Yes, Ninis slept first, Mas. tomorrow morning Ninis directly to the hospital and deliver a leave of absence Ninis." said Ninis back and in reply a small nod from Kala.
Ninis was asleep, Kala immediately looking for articles about pregnancy. Kala could have asked what became his curiosity towards Ninis, Ninis himself is a doctor who handles the field of obstetrics. But according to Kala it will raise a question from Ninis for him, and Kala does not want to strengthen his relationship with Ninis.
After finishing reading, Kala never stopped looking at his cellphone. He never stopped checking whether Camelia had opened the block button on his online message or still the same, he said, but unfortunately in fact Camelia has been reluctant to undergo a communication with Kala and Kala so feel very disappointed.
