THE SECOND MARRIAGE
LOVE STORY IS NOT PERFECT

“Jawab mi.” Arsya said as he approached Wafa and Karolina.

“Not like that Arsya.”

“Then what's mi like?? I had clearly heard that my mother wanted to return the favor by marrying Wafa to me.”

Karolina fell silent, she looked at Wafa who was looking down. Tear drops began to appear falling over the back of his hand that squeezed each other. Arsya's remarks really hurt Wafa.

Arsya's remarks also further prove that Arsya does not love Wafa. Wafa knows that, from the beginning of their marriage without love and like a mere agreement. But a few months have passed, it turns out that Arsya's feelings for Wafa have not changed.

Without saying anything, Wafa got up from there, he wiped his tears violently, then climbed up the stairs leading to his room. Whether or not Wafa should be angry, Wafa is more annoyed at himself who easily falls in love with Arsya. “It turns out I was too hopeful.” His mind ran and locked itself in the bathroom in the room.

“You're outrageous Arsya!!” Mami sentak.

“Who is outrageous? Me or mommy? Mami made me as a tool to return the favor.”

“Arsya enough, Wafa must have been hurt hearing your remarks.”

Arsya was silent, as if she remembered what she said earlier. Arsya also realized, “Shiittt.” Aspersion.

Arsya rode after Wafa into the room, but wafa was not there. “Honey where are you??”

Arsya went to the balcony, but there was no Wafa. The sound of water gurgling from inside the bathroom makes Arsya sure if Wafa is in there. He also knocked on the door.

Tok.shock.

“Honey open, I want to talk to you.” Arsya.

There was no answer from inside, Arsya decided to let Wafa calm down and he would wait for Wafa to come out from inside.

A few minutes passed, Wafa still did not come out of there. Arsya began to feel anxious, he went back to the bathroom door and knocked on it.

“Wafa, darling. Can you open the door for a minute??”

FLECKISH

“Soy, sorry.”

“Sorry for what?? You are not wrong.”

“My words must have offended you, sorry dear. I didn't mean to say that..”

“If you are forced to marry me??” Wafa smiled bitterly, tears welled up in his eyes. “No need to apologize, I don't papa. I was just surprised, you used to mean me so I could accept you, and it turns out you had to do that too. Can I ask you a question??”

Arsya looked at Wafa with a regretful look, then she nodded.

“What exactly is the reason you want to accept your mom's plan at that time?? Wouldn't it be better if you didn't want to refuse?? But you forced me and convinced me that I should accept my mother's plan, too.”

Arsya was silent, where perhaps he was telling the truth to Wafa. If he forced Wafa to accept the plan because Arsya was initially offended by Wafa's refusal. Because there has never been a woman who dared to reject Arsya other than Wafa.

“Why silent mas?” Ask Wafa again.

“My dear, I..”.

“Can't answer mas??”

Arsya is silent again, he is afraid of misspeaking and makes his problem with Wafa more tapered.

Again Wafa smiled bitterly, a smile that was able to make Arsya feel pain when his sad face and eyes were swollen Wafa was clearly unable to hide anymore.

“Honey...” Arsya approached, he brought Wafa into his deck.

Unlike usual, if Arsya hugged Wafa, the woman would happily return the hug tightly. This time Wafa just kept quiet while sobbing, he did not reply or refuse. And Arsya felt that something was missing when his wife's hands did not return the twists of her hands on her back.

“I'm sorry, I'm really sorry.”

Wafa still did not answer, the woman just sobbed lamenting her love story that was never perfect.
