The Roof You Promised
Part 5 - Let Me Get Married Again


Aurorae braced herself to raise her face. He looked at the man in front of him.


“ Let's stop. We end it all enough to get here. “


Herjuno. Staring sharply at the Aurorae's eyes. Looking for love there, ah. love is still there. Although her lips asked for them to part, but her eyes still showed off her immense love.


Being stared at like that, made Aurorae bow her head again.


“Let's split. “ repeat again , with more slowly. Aurorae was scared, she was afraid of losing by her own feelings.


“No. “ Herjuno stared at him sharply with a voice full of emphasis.


Aurorae again raised her head. He didn't want to look weak in front of Herjuno.


“I didn't ask for your approval. From this second, I don't want you to approach me.” Aurorae tries to hide her nervousness. As he said that, he not only hurt Herjuno, but also himself.


Herjuno.


“ Why suddenly ? From the beginning you knew I was married. Then what is Rae?” Herjuno blocked both Aurorae arms.


“ I know you are married and in the process of divorce with your wife. That's why I'm willing to date you. I should have asked, then is this Juno? You tricked me.” The sneaker threw out Herjuno's hand checks.


Herjuno. She doesn't know Megumi and Aurorae are discussing divorce issues. And now Aurorae learns the fact that her household with Megumi is fine.


“ Wah.. “ Aurorae opened her thin mouth jerking her breath with a small smile.


“ You're surprised? Do you think I called your wife just to hurt her on purpose?” Aurorae paused for a moment, taking a step back.


“I contacted him just to make sure I wasn't stuck in your game. Cunning man. Stop approaching me, you cheater. “ Aurorae turns her body out of the room and closes the door roughly.


While Herjuno, still silent. Seeing the woman he loved go away with a tinge of disappointment on his face, making his chest tight.

Since morning Aurorae could not work quietly. His heart crumbled softly. Break up with Herjuno? His lips were easy to say. But heart? Broken face it. For this time , he was eager for the day to pass. As soon as the clock showed it was time to go home, without delaying any longer he moved from his cubicle, leaving his division room with quick steps. He did not want to cross paths with Herjuno that afternoon. While Herjuno, stared at Aurorae's steps from behind the door with a sad face.


The new Aurorae will get into her car when her netra catches a woman on the other end. Stand in front of his car. Looking at him, nyalang. Aurorae did not care, she just stared at him for a while, then got into her car. Hurry up from there.


But only about a kilometer drive away, Aurorae is struck by a car that suddenly cuts her way , stopping right in front of her.


A woman came out from inside. The woman he knew. Megumi's.


Not wanting to cause a commotion that attracted the attention of many people, Aurorae came out.


“ What's wrong?” ask her after Megumi gets in front of her.


But instead of answering, Megumi angrily raised her right hand. Ready to slap the woman's face in front of him. He was eager to retort, replying to Herjuno's slap in the face yesterday afternoon.


But before the hand landed perfectly on his face, Aurorae first blocked Megumi's hand movements.


“ You followed me just to slap me? After slapping me, what are you going to do? Does that satisfy you? “ said Aurorae while stomping Megumi's hand.


“ Shut up you fucking girl. Even a slap as hard as anything is not worth what you did to me. “ Megumi screamed while holding her wrist that was a little sore because of the Aurorae check earlier.


Aurorae.


“ Yes alright. I'm a fucking girl. But your husband is more damn. Not just for you, but for me. If I could , I'd love to slap her in the face.” Sinis Aurorae squeaked.


“ Stay away from my basic husband you shameless woman. “ says spicy Megumi.


“ No need for you to ask, I broke off my relationship with him this morning. And you stop desperately blaming me. You should've just fucked that son of a bitch husband. Do you know what? She refused this morning I asked her to stay away from me.” Reply Aurorae no less spicy.


“ Cih. Are you very confident that you can replace me?” Megumi's emotions began to be lured again.


Aurorae breathed out slowly. It's free to argue with Megumi, her inner self.


“ Listen , Megumi. I broke off my relationship with him this morning, I've been avoiding him all day when you know I'm his staff, it's hard not to get involved with him. I'm sorry once again, if I accidentally hurt you. Really, I just believed her saying you're getting divorced and you're happy with your own life. “ Aurorae takes a moment's pause. Exhaling his breath again.


Megumi somehow just kept quiet. Wanted to hear what else this woman before him would say.


“ But Megumi, I'm also sorry because I love your husband so much. My logic is letting go, my common sense will make me stay away as much as I can, but my heart is not yet, as long as you know. So please, speak carefully to your husband. Solve what is the dispute between you. So that he would no longer approach me, because if he kept trying to reach me I was afraid that I would no longer be able to resist him. Please, help me. “ Aurorae sobbed at the end of her sentence. He could no longer hold himself in front of Megumi.


Aurorae turned her body. Just a step away from Megumi, she turned around again.


“ My contract is six months away. Help me until then Megumi. After that I'll really go. Ah , and next Monday I'm assigned to accompany him in Rakernas this year in one of the company's branches. We'll leave separately, but if we can. Don't give us a chance to have just two.”


After saying that Aurorae got into her car, rubbed her tears rough, and left Megumi still stuck there.

“ Hem.. four days for Rakernas. “ he replied indifferently. His heart is fucked. Today Aurorae was not joking when she said she wanted to part from him.


“ Rakernas four days? Isn't it usually only two days?” look Megumi looked at her husband suspiciously.


Herjuno exhaled slowly.


“ Meeting two days, but I have to leave since Saturday, because this time Rakernas is held at the eleven branch. Travel there nearly twelve hours if driving alone.” Clearly lazy.


“ Can I come? “ ask Megumi probing. Figuring out Herjuno's feelings through the reaction on his face.


Herjuno raised his face as if confirming what he had just heard.


“ I won't bother you, it's just that if you drive, twelve hours is a long time ago. I'm afraid you're tired if no one talks. When you meet, I'll wait in the hotel room or take a walk by myself. Two days is not a problem.“ continued Megumi again, as if knowing the contents of her husband's head.


“ It's up to you. Get prepared. Tell Bi Lilis to stay the night while we are away.“ Herjuno replied as he cut off his gaze with Megumi and continued to stuff his clothes into the big bag he was going to carry.


Megumi exhaled slowly, so slowly that her husband did not even notice.


“ Let me. Just accompany Haidar.. “ said Megumi finally , take over her husband's job.


Herjuno. He came out of the room to his son who was playing in the corner of the family room.

Aurorae slowly stepped into the hotel where she would stay for the next four days.


Since thirty minutes in fact he came, he kept silent in his car because when he was going down, he saw Herjuno who stepped in with Megumi beside him. He did not want them to cross paths, so he should wait until about a couple got their room key.


Her heart is so tight. The day seemed to be playing itself. Today he deliberately set out early in the morning when the sky was still very dark, hoping to arrive before Herjuno came. He will remain in his hotel room until Monday morning. But in fact they come almost simultaneously. Ah, at least Aurorae is grateful that they did not cross each other at rest in the rest area or anywhere on the road earlier.


“ Reservations on behalf of Aurorae Genina.” He replied slowly as the receptionist asked for his purpose.


He smiled sweetly as a sign of understanding the receptionist's explanation about the location of his room on the third floor. Aurorae turns around, following Room boy who will escort her to the hotel room.


“ Rae ... “ Aurorae. His heart rippled again. To the left of his gaze, there was Herjuno greeting him. Of course with Megumi who is fond of her left arm.


- What is this ? I had even been silent in the car before getting in to avoid them, but ended up meeting as well


“Ah, yes Mr. Juno. “ his reply looked down politely. Act as if nothing ever happened between them. Makes Herjuno's heart even more claustrophobic.


“ Who are you coming with? “ asked Herjuno inquisitive, because Aurorae looks very tired. And it managed to make Megumi tremble withstanding the pain in her chest.


“ I drive myself Sir. Then, excuse me. I'll see you Monday in the meeting room. “ Realizing Megumi's silent reaction to her dislike, Aurorae hastily disconnects their conversation, without giving Herjuno a chance to ask anything more. At the same time, the emphasis is that Aurorae does not want meetings other than later in the meeting room.


He turned around quickly after nodding and smiling politely as a sign of retreat. He did not want the couple to realize his tears were starting to pool.

“ Are you happy to see him tonight? You must miss him a lot.” The feeling that Megumi had been enduring since then finally expressed also with annoyance as they returned to the hotel room after enjoying dinner. She stared at her husband who was laying on the bed.


“ Hem... “ he replied with a glaring gaze.


That one word alone could make Megumi's heart hurt badly. Herjuno reluctantly confesses his feelings for another woman in the presence of Megumi, his wife.


“ Mas , stop hurting me. I beg you. “ Megumi's voice weakens , her heart hurts too much.


Herjuno rose from his sleep. He sat on the bed looking at his wife.


“ Me... You know , Aurorae has severed our relationship. He no longer wants me to go near him. And today I let you come with me, even though I know this is my chance to try and ask for it back. You know what that means? It means I will try to forget it too. I will grant her wish to stay away from me. So please stop bringing this up, stop hurting yourself. “ Juno explained at length.


“ You hurt me Mas , you even told him that we were going to get divorced , why Mas?” Megumi's getting sobbing.


“ Because I love her, I really don't want to lose her , then I tricked her into staying by my side.” Juno replied with regret.


“Forget Aurorae Mas , I have been with you for five years, I know you better, I understand you better. All this time we have never had a big fight, there is no significant problem between us Mas , but why is it so easy for you to hurt me.” Megumi still sobbed slowly.


“ Not no problem Me.. I just pretend that it is not a big problem.” Answer Herjuno weakly.


“ What do you mean Mas ?” Megumi stopped for a moment.


Long Herjuno did not answer his question. He turned back to himself. His gaze only grew more and more glaring towards the ceiling of the room.


“ Me.. allow me to marry Aurorae.”
